Before the beginning began the with God. So before the world began before time began, there was God, and since there was a beginning. We also know that in Genesis there is a beginning at the end and book of Revelation, there was an empty one time will be no more. So God created man, Adam and Eve and he says, still adamantly this is your place now. Not only is he saying to them. This is your place. You sang that time, and this planet are yours so gone and says to live anyway is a worry, right on a contract and says, out of any. This is your place. I give you this contract time and this planet are your now he says you got one commandment no need of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The reason for the commandment is this God owns this place, you are still words, your caretakers of this place and I give you the day, but I never want you to forget who owns this place so. And God is no saying your offer on your own .com everyday Goddess within the cool of the day, God comes down and watch with Adam and Eve as a friend with friend so then fine. Then Adam and Eve had displaced that contract. Satan comes when Satan do Satan decides that he is going to attempt out of any one state and one music evil is so evil, evil, so we moved a little soul ridiculousness naïve, stupid that Ava wants to destroy God wants to destroy God 's creation once you destroy the relationship of man has with God. So IMO comes along and says God really said we shall you not to eat or even looked on, so we give you with latest study on this, we would say that God gave them one commandment don't leave the tree evil comes along and twice that around God is and what you look at it because of the day that you look at it, you know, the lie can these withholding something from you, so therefore they can begin students have by changing the word of God, even though Jesus was tempted, he is a dedicated to Jesus, and tempted him and thinking use the word of God, and twisted. There was word for word was a verbatim twenty four· contact, even whatever Jesus was tempted by Satan, the temptations are input temptations in the three categories. Once the VI lot, the flash and the pride of life was the guys that make me look good was the flesh does make me feel good pride of life that make me more than what I am every temptation in our lifetimes one of those three categories. It's going to make me look good. It's going to make me feel good. It's going to make me more than what I am so adding any of they gave into this temptation and add any as they age of the fruit gave the contract of time and place to evil. So saying that the contract. He has. He has the conference call the principal power of the year he took the contract that was meant for man and God created and limited game at the man, but he gave it to him for a time, so we look at this one had anything this man lost what did mankind lose, they lost their relationship with God. The relationship with broken wine because he said they said was missing the mark. They adamantly didn't match up with the market that God said don't eat of the tree one commandment. Why, because I want you to know who owns this place so they die physically, and they died spiritually and they lost out on the relationship with God that happened when the contract was broke, you don't notice in the garden. There was another tree, was the tree of life. The tree of life was that they would live forever, so mankind was created to live forever mankind was not created to fall but seek God gave us a choice, so in Christ when Jesus Christ came and died upon the cross. What did he do the story talkback, not the contract, but he took back what happened when the contract was broken the contract is still owned by Satan Prince of power beer. He still holds its place, but only for a time, in Christ, you will die take back what what Christ had come to give us in the first place a relationship with God that we that we are in a right relationship we are alive spiritually, and we are alive physically eternal life. Jesus Christ Jesus Christ rose from the dead is the firstfruits of them that slept. Trump of God shall sound, the dead in Christ shall rise, and we which are alive and remain shall be caught up to meet them in the air. We have eternal life. When eternal relationship with God, and that we had his word that is a greater contract than this. We have a greater contract and the contract is the word of God that God has given us to overcome world magazine to continue, then he is in the world. The world is not necessary to ignore outside of God, but people who are influenced by this former contract or this contract that is now owned by held by Satan, and he is using it to steal and kill and destroy. So everything that we lost in the fall. We regain in Christ, so we overcome evil by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony was written in Scripture Revelation we all are come in evil by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony. So when Christ died upon the cross, he has Vlad purchase our salvation. He who knew no sin became sin for us, so that our sink of the company be forgiven and that we could regain what we law. So now we are in this relationship with God. We are in the right relationship with God. We get, we are still facing temptation Satan is a defeated file data is conquered, but yet we still buy we are in a right relationship with Christ. But we are still tempted, so he still here doing his thing. Trying to destroy what God has created eternal life in heaven with Christ. But yet we find Satan and then he is still there, trying to destroy what God has created the youths. He is so angry and so bitter over his defeat that he wants to destroy everything that is associated with God, and fell his desire evil desire is to destroy mankind and mankind, though, has a time to choose to serve God or not deserve to know the truth and the truth shall set you free. And so we find that when we come to eternal life when time is no more Satan and evil and all that will be cast into the lake of fire and that we will live with God for forever in eternity. So, sandwiched between eternity past, and eternity future is time and in this time we live, and so in this time Satan has a contract that was given by God to man, man, David Satan Satan says I got the contract. But God says I've broken the effects of the contract separation and death. So we are faced with in our life. As with what is being written here in the Scripture connected that word when Peter is writing in here. They say to the to the people and a safe these individuals in an chapter on chapter five verse six so the content with who you are: yourself before God. So when we look at our life. Sometimes we just know like we are because look at me look at our society. Society tells us you should be like so-and-so. We've got an image out there of what the perfect person looks like what they perfect leader looks like what the perfect person, you know, husband, wife, child paragraph that we get all those perfectly black. Then, those things are presented to us as if these are what your goals are, so we are not good enough in the present place to achieve these things to temptation. The temptation is, if you're not good enough you never will be good enough. And so it's kind of a waste of time a waste of effort, but Peter is saying to the church. These can be individually writing with it. They were entering in the same problem again. The same problem. Peter says something content with who you are the King James as humble yourself, therefore, under God 's mighty hand, the question to move Peter 's writing are under severe persecution. Their suffering. They're being abused their persecutor for believing and obeying Christ. They have been described as Christ overwhelmed, devastated for these situations of feelings are blinding then to the vision of hope and threatening to destroy them in their life, and so peters telling them the content with who you are, what, where Christian if we were not Christians, we would not be suffering this way in our society we look at everything. If I were simply better, smarter, richer or poorer fibers. This fiber that I would be better off if I lived in this place or that place at the stopper of that job. This income of that income were always looking out and we never quite measure up beers says by the inspiration of God, be content with who you are member. The purpose of evil steel to kill and to destroy. If we are not content with who we are now. Contentment is not being right, etc. do nothing. That's& that's something else. But stealing, killing and destroying. So be content with who you are, do not worry about position and status wanting things to be I wish I were somebody else. I wish I were somebody else now, and if it's a difficult thing because I love and I love anybody's ever verily been happy with who they are. I could have hair and I would be better. I could be thinner, stronger than I what I was a little younger, I could be no little more, but applied myself more maybe I would've had another degree in such inception. I could've done this in the could of done that if I had made his choice of that choice of my family hadn't been so poor. Maybe I wouldn't leave this place and that my family had been feel and then farmers perhaps I could be something. Something Alison don't we look at these things and we wonder I were driving through town. Know that we live near coal run, and the all wheat. We had different forms that we find in there always diagonals, farmers, you know, they were. We were kind of I was felt like people, look, look down on you because you know you melt housing, and you do all that farm and stuff and I drive to time our tracker now insane while I can go to the car dealers a two Corvettes to go. Please enough hell of our tractor because now that so much it cost, and they didn't know how much it cost and young as I was discontent with who I was alive trifold, a lot I can bike to work. That's what this machine you can you know because of broken tiles enough to help the audio we look at these things and leave. We say were not this summer. Not that that so they can tell if you are recognize that God has placed you where you are giving you who you are for purpose. Whenever you don't want to get to the top of the lateral link to discover that it's against the wrong building now were always wanting to get to the top, but sometimes God has a different plan for us in God is the web spacing things out in the time very. The vacant·· becoming different contentment is satisfied and different is I don't care do not pretend that you don't care. I do not pretend that your indifferent wine, because God 's strong hand is on this very important message for us. God 's hand is on you, not because you are going to be somebody else or that God wishes you were somebody else. God wants you to be you, God wants me to be me with who I am where I am. What I've learned my background, my what I've done August God 's hand is upon me now see these people are under severe persecution and they they were halting English and that they were someplace else. The AL someplace else in the fire someplace else that was not been so severely persecuted and and being assigned them, they can tell you, you are right you are. Why, because God 's hand is upon you, God 's strong hand is upon you, it's important to God and to our life that we recognize God 's hand is upon us. Nothing can separate us from God 's hands. Paul says that neither life nor death principalities or power things present and past things to come. Nothing is able to separate us from God, so that God 's hand is upon me where I am, why, when I want to be somebody else and separate myself from God like I will be over here doing something else and I will be happy godless me to be where I am writing library and using the experiences I have and who I have become what God wants me to be no Jesus and about honesty in Galilee and needs with his disciples and he's sleeping in the boat storm comes up and yell disciples as many of them are experienced seamen, and they're afraid that their boat dispensing and they say, let's wake up Jesus because he doesn't know that we're going to die so they went these up and Jesus no peace be still born stop send while what kind of God 's business cameraman is is that the wind and waves obey him. What will we marvel at, before not who we are facing the storms that we face living the life that we live. I mean, what would you marvel at the marble at the sameness while my life hasn't changed in fifty years. I was bored today as it was then. What a great life. Thank God I am now take it much better than this. I'm bored to death in some family die while in the forwardness if she is saying that some live. We just tile X outline what will life be like if there were no challenges a number. No changes in the were no storms in the vernal needs in our life. We are looking at that God 's strong hand is on us and he says, gosh, sorry and he will want to promote you at the right time for lunch at the right time, he'll do it in his timing recognition is greater than anything in our lives. God is willing and able to bless us, but he will do so in his time. I was you were doing in my time that I wouldn't have to it all upset whichever somebody else see the temptation of Satan is not really said that his strong hands on you asked I really said that everything should work out for good in your life has God really said he'll take care of you look at what's going on around you. Look at the other people how they get this, and they get that how that their blast and whatever is not really said I thought really come through for you and your trial. You don't jiggle a doubt is down has to have a truth in order to be unexpected if there is no truth. How can we say it is of the truth like the sons going to come up tomorrow. I'm noticing for you. So while wideout that there has to be a truth in order for there to be a doubt, and the word of God is the ultimate truth. Now I know people will say things that are no in and are political arenas, no matter who we are able to say things in and never proclaim is as truth, and will say I doubt that. That's okay, because sometimes people like to listen some people said things to get ahead and they enable life. But when we look at the word of God. The Scripture says heaven and earth will pass away, but my word will the way you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. It is evil. They comes a lot because that the Dow and Hewlett. I have a truth that is in our life given to us by God, and in this word to God 's given us is that they can fit with who you are and don't put on-air call pretend to be somebody you're not God 's strong hand is on you to promote you at the right time. God is going to do this. What is God saying will have really said there must be a truth in order for there to be done. Truth is that God 's hand is on you. Evil comes, I doubt that why why did evil want us to doubt steel, kill, destroy one of you on your spiritual life Rob God 's best for your life and breaker relationships with .net people 's intent and because if you can break us will trust in something else other than God. The Bible, God 's Word speaks it to us the Holy Spirit makes it real to us, and it brings us into brings it into our heart within affirmation and with power. There is a power in the word of God. There is there is a spiritual power that comes in the Scriptures that whatever we read them whenever we pray to whatever we expect them that it is God at work bringing about the strength that comes to us evil intent is to rob us of that strength that God really said the wedding in your spiritual life wedding in our spiritual life is agreeing with God 's word acting positively upon it an e-mail whenever it doesn't happen the way that we think that it should now. I wanted things to happen differently. We've all tried for things didn't happen the way that it should have, or the way we think it should have. But you know what God has a way of bringing it in our faithfulness to God. He has a way of bringing it around and teaching us something in our life that is more important for eternity. Then for us getting what we want at this moment, she we are eternal beings and have a lifetime to live and getting what we wanted this moment may not be exactly what is going to be the best for us in the lifetime so gone as a way of bringing his word into our life. And Satan is there trying to take the contract and saying I present five this world enables non- win and now look at the people of given up on God. Look at the foolishness of people who are serving like it's not foolishness of faith and faith has a way of sustaining us in the difficult times that were not caught up in the feelings of the moment that take us off course when I caught up in the discouragement or the things that don't happen in our timeframe and we lose hope we never lose hope in God was effective, says live carefree before God, the King James has cast all your cares upon him because he cares for you. Carefree is not alone carefree as I have taken my needs and my mic difficult situations, and I take them to God in prayer. I think that the gods I am living carefree, meaning that God is the one who's taking care of me and the cares I have. I place them in God 's hand and I must have with the guidance through the MSM wisdom and understanding to live my life and understand that God is Medicare for me. So in the daily struggles. We bring them all to God. And so I bring out the gone and I live a carefree world, meaning that God will take care of me and he is most careful with me most careful German play ball in the house, not me. You're my mother told me I was to break the windows of any kind. I finally did F- take the ball and how to throw the ball bouncing off the couch. We can have one and spring things that throw back at the outside wheel and account inside. Eightball throating his couch and bounce back my mothers don't imagine ever going to the lab I listened to a broken window. The old picture when the ball right through my fault mom and input on how to make the winter when you put it out there something there were most careful with the Sybase don't touch why it's it's it's important, don't touch that there is no deal at the kids will get to play with everything in our valuable things. Why, because there are some things you have to be most careful with because they're fragile in our life. God is most careful with you, meaning that he knows where we are fragile you know where we are most easily hurt. He knows exactly what makes us what our makeup is and he is most fragile with us, please both careful with us because we are fragile. It will doesn't have that sensitivity. God does God is both careful with you and doubt will cause us to challenge those fragile areas of our life and we end up shattering them. Takes the truth and questioned, but God is most careful with you down, says God does not care for me, but God says I am most careful with you there must be a truth that we believe Ford doubt to be effective, easy gout foot and have a foothold in our life if we didn't have something that we expect people who are totally indifferent. Don't have much doubt doesn't really matter what happens, doesn't really matter if this happens of that will what you believe in. I believe in nothing you believe in God don't have to believe in God you believe in demo battle with the devil of Lynn got doubly been the devil where you can. There's no truth of the betrayal. How can you doubt where there is no truth. You see, people are reluctant people, people tell lies in a single evening. God says this is the true and the truth will set you free take it, and it's yours and it will work. All I doubt that God doesn't try to make out believe it, just like in the end the Bible says that the there is no explanation of God. God dispensed where God come from you before the beginning began, there was God always was, always will be time established in the middle so we are coming to wildlife and coming to the understanding of what God is doing in our life, and the truth is presented to us in doubt comes along. If we are adopting something, it's only because there is the truth that God wants you to believe in evil. One should not imagine that so it has to and have to take a positive, affirming word from God. Before there can be done. There must be a positive, affirming word from God to your life before, doubt can come and challenge, though even that tree will has God really say that why did God not want them to eat of the tree so that they would understand it. They are all misplaced concepts and it are alive, has let us know he owned this place. He breathed into what honest the breath of life and we are living soul. We are going to live forever, and when time is no more. We're still going to live. We're still going to be alive because life cannot die. This body can perish but live will never stop. And in our choices in life, choosing God gives us the life that is eternal with Jesus Christ. Without truth there can be no doubt the truth comes otherwise I would plan for you. I'm a purpose for you. I haven't destiny for you. I have a place for you. I powerful UI strength for you. I have a way of working things out to divine good in your life. I have young the word of God will come into your life and set you free break the chains of bondage. It will break these things in your life on this is presented in the word and we are called upon to choose to believe God says it will work winning in our spiritual life. What do you say to use, so be content with who you are, do not put on airs, God 's strong hand is on you from time live carefree before God is most careful with you. Keep a cool head. Stay alert. The devil is poised to pounce and would like nothing better than to catch you napping. Keep your guard up. You're not the only one you're not the only ones plunged into these hard times. It's the same with Christians all over the world. So keep a firm grip on the faith. The suffering is in Ghana last forever and it won't be long before this gracious God who has great plans for us in Christ, eternal and glorious plans. They are will have you put together and on your feet for good. He gets the last word he gets the last word. Yes he does so is there so we choose the subfloor which shows allow God 's Word and God 's truth. The NR life. We chose these things, and when doubt comes in only affirms the last I have a divine truth, and I'm not like velvet. When we doubt that things are going to get get any better for us than the evils trying to get us to take that truth that God is given to what is going to work out for you. If God has a plan and a purpose. Hold on to the truth because evils in Texas to steal detailed to destroy God 's intent is to bless you. I'm blessed and I was sad I last I left, I am less a so our focus is on God. I am blessed. Amen, I choose your blessing or father. I choose you. I choose your blessing.

God, I chose your graciousness in your grace and your mercy, I choose the more for you have given these truth into my heart and life. I ask your blessing. The affirmation of your word in your spirit upon me, I pray in Jesus name and everybody says I choose life. I can I choose life in Christ. AmenBefore the beginning began the with God. So before the world began before time began, there was God, and since there was a beginning. We also know that in Genesis there is a beginning at the end and book of Revelation, there was an empty one time will be no more. So God created man, Adam and Eve and he says, still adamantly this is your place now. Not only is he saying to them. This is your place. You sang that time, and this planet are yours so gone and says to live anyway is a worry, right on a contract and says, out of any. This is your place. I give you this contract time and this planet are your now he says you got one commandment no need of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The reason for the commandment is this God owns this place, you are still words, your caretakers of this place and I give you the day, but I never want you to forget who owns this place so. And God is no saying your offer on your own .com everyday Goddess within the cool of the day, God comes down and watch with Adam and Eve as a friend with friend so then fine. Then Adam and Eve had displaced that contract. Satan comes when Satan do Satan decides that he is going to attempt out of any one state and one music evil is so evil, evil, so we moved a little soul ridiculousness naïve, stupid that Ava wants to destroy God wants to destroy God 's creation once you destroy the relationship of man has with God. So IMO comes along and says God really said we shall you not to eat or even looked on, so we give you with latest study on this, we would say that God gave them one commandment don't leave the tree evil comes along and twice that around God is and what you look at it because of the day that you look at it, you know, the lie can these withholding something from you, so therefore they can begin students have by changing the word of God, even though Jesus was tempted, he is a dedicated to Jesus, and tempted him and thinking use the word of God, and twisted. There was word for word was a verbatim twenty four· contact, even whatever Jesus was tempted by Satan, the temptations are input temptations in the three categories. Once the VI lot, the flash and the pride of life was the guys that make me look good was the flesh does make me feel good pride of life that make me more than what I am every temptation in our lifetimes one of those three categories. It's going to make me look good. It's going to make me feel good. It's going to make me more than what I am so adding any of they gave into this temptation and add any as they age of the fruit gave the contract of time and place to evil. So saying that the contract. He has. He has the conference call the principal power of the year he took the contract that was meant for man and God created and limited game at the man, but he gave it to him for a time, so we look at this one had anything this man lost what did mankind lose, they lost their relationship with God. The relationship with broken wine because he said they said was missing the mark. They adamantly didn't match up with the market that God said don't eat of the tree one commandment. Why, because I want you to know who owns this place so they die physically, and they died spiritually and they lost out on the relationship with God that happened when the contract was broke, you don't notice in the garden. There was another tree, was the tree of life. The tree of life was that they would live forever, so mankind was created to live forever mankind was not created to fall but seek God gave us a choice, so in Christ when Jesus Christ came and died upon the cross. What did he do the story talkback, not the contract, but he took back what happened when the contract was broken the contract is still owned by Satan Prince of power beer. He still holds its place, but only for a time, in Christ, you will die take back what what Christ had come to give us in the first place a relationship with God that we that we are in a right relationship we are alive spiritually, and we are alive physically eternal life. Jesus Christ Jesus Christ rose from the dead is the firstfruits of them that slept. Trump of God shall sound, the dead in Christ shall rise, and we which are alive and remain shall be caught up to meet them in the air. We have eternal life. When eternal relationship with God, and that we had his word that is a greater contract than this. We have a greater contract and the contract is the word of God that God has given us to overcome world magazine to continue, then he is in the world. The world is not necessary to ignore outside of God, but people who are influenced by this former contract or this contract that is now owned by held by Satan, and he is using it to steal and kill and destroy. So everything that we lost in the fall. We regain in Christ, so we overcome evil by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony was written in Scripture Revelation we all are come in evil by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony. So when Christ died upon the cross, he has Vlad purchase our salvation. He who knew no sin became sin for us, so that our sink of the company be forgiven and that we could regain what we law. So now we are in this relationship with God. We are in the right relationship with God. We get, we are still facing temptation Satan is a defeated file data is conquered, but yet we still buy we are in a right relationship with Christ. But we are still tempted, so he still here doing his thing. Trying to destroy what God has created eternal life in heaven with Christ. But yet we find Satan and then he is still there, trying to destroy what God has created the youths. He is so angry and so bitter over his defeat that he wants to destroy everything that is associated with God, and fell his desire evil desire is to destroy mankind and mankind, though, has a time to choose to serve God or not deserve to know the truth and the truth shall set you free. And so we find that when we come to eternal life when time is no more Satan and evil and all that will be cast into the lake of fire and that we will live with God for forever in eternity. So, sandwiched between eternity past, and eternity future is time and in this time we live, and so in this time Satan has a contract that was given by God to man, man, David Satan Satan says I got the contract. But God says I've broken the effects of the contract separation and death. So we are faced with in our life. As with what is being written here in the Scripture connected that word when Peter is writing in here. They say to the to the people and a safe these individuals in an chapter on chapter five verse six so the content with who you are: yourself before God. So when we look at our life.

That's what this machine you can you know because of broken tiles enough to help the audio we look at these things and leave. We say were not this summer. Not that that so they can tell if you are recognize that God has placed you where you are giving you who you are for purpose. Whenever you don't want to get to the top of the lateral link to discover that it's against the wrong building now were always wanting to get to the top, but sometimes God has a different plan for us in God is the web spacing things out in the time very. The vacant·· becoming different contentment is satisfied and different is I don't care do not pretend that you don't care. I do not pretend that your indifferent wine, because God 's strong hand is on this very important message for us. God 's hand is on you, not because you are going to be somebody else or that God wishes you were somebody else. God wants you to be you, God wants me to be me with who I am where I am. What I've learned my background, my what I've done August God 's hand is upon me now see these people are under severe persecution and they they were halting English and that they were someplace else. The AL someplace else in the fire someplace else that was not been so severely persecuted and and being assigned them, they can tell you, you are right you are. Why, because God 's hand is upon you, God 's strong hand is upon you, it's important to God and to our life that we recognize God 's hand is upon us. Nothing can separate us from God 's hands. Paul says that neither life nor death principalities or power things present and past things to come. Nothing is able to separate us from God, so that God 's hand is upon me where I am, why, when I want to be somebody else and separate myself from God like I will be over here doing something else and I will be happy godless me to be where I am writing library and using the experiences I have and who I have become what God wants me to be no Jesus and about honesty in Galilee and needs with his disciples and he's sleeping in the boat storm comes up and yell disciples as many of them are experienced seamen, and they're afraid that their boat dispensing and they say, let's wake up Jesus because he doesn't know that we're going to die so they went these up and Jesus no peace be still born stop send while what kind of God 's business cameraman is is that the wind and waves obey him. What will we marvel at, before not who we are facing the storms that we face living the life that we live. I mean, what would you marvel at the marble at the sameness while my life hasn't changed in fifty years. I was bored today as it was then. What a great life. Thank God I am now take it much better than this. I'm bored to death in some family die while in the forwardness if she is saying that some live. We just tile X outline what will life be like if there were no challenges a number. No changes in the were no storms in the vernal needs in our life. We are looking at that God 's strong hand is on us and he says, gosh, sorry and he will want to promote you at the right time for lunch at the right time, he'll do it in his timing recognition is greater than anything in our lives. God is willing and able to bless us, but he will do so in his time. I was you were doing in my time that I wouldn't have to it all upset whichever somebody else see the temptation of Satan is not really said that his strong hands on you asked I really said that everything should work out for good in your life has God really said he'll take care of you look at what's going on around you. Look at the other people how they get this, and they get that how that their blast and whatever is not really said I thought really come through for you and your trial. You don't jiggle a doubt is down has to have a truth in order to be unexpected if there is no truth. How can we say it is of the truth like the sons going to come up tomorrow. I'm noticing for you. So while wideout that there has to be a truth in order for there to be a doubt, and the word of God is the ultimate truth. Now I know people will say things that are no in and are political arenas, no matter who we are able to say things in and never proclaim is as truth, and will say I doubt that. That's okay, because sometimes people like to listen some people said things to get ahead and they enable life. But when we look at the word of God. The Scripture says heaven and earth will pass away, but my word will the way you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. It is evil. They comes a lot because that the Dow and Hewlett. I have a truth that is in our life given to us by God, and in this word to God 's given us is that they can fit with who you are and don't put on-air call pretend to be somebody you're not God 's strong hand is on you to promote you at the right time. God is going to do this. What is God saying will have really said there must be a truth in order for there to be done. Truth is that God 's hand is on you. Evil comes, I doubt that why why did evil want us to doubt steel, kill, destroy one of you on your spiritual life Rob God 's best for your life and breaker relationships with .net people 's intent and because if you can break us will trust in something else other than God. The Bible, God 's Word speaks it to us the Holy Spirit makes it real to us, and it brings us into brings it into our heart within affirmation and with power. There is a power in the word of God. There is there is a spiritual power that comes in the Scriptures that whatever we read them whenever we pray to whatever we expect them that it is God at work bringing about the strength that comes to us evil intent is to rob us of that strength that God really said the wedding in your spiritual life wedding in our spiritual life is agreeing with God 's word acting positively upon it an e-mail whenever it doesn't happen the way that we think that it should now. I wanted things to happen differently. We've all tried for things didn't happen the way that it should have, or the way we think it should have. But you know what God has a way of bringing it in our faithfulness to God. He has a way of bringing it around and teaching us something in our life that is more important for eternity. Then for us getting what we want at this moment, she we are eternal beings and have a lifetime to live and getting what we wanted this moment may not be exactly what is going to be the best for us in the lifetime so gone as a way of bringing his word into our life. And Satan is there trying to take the contract and saying I present five this world enables non- win and now look at the people of given up on God. Look at the foolishness of people who are serving like it's not foolishness of faith and faith has a way of sustaining us in the difficult times that were not caught up in the feelings of the moment that take us off course when I caught up in the discouragement or the things that don't happen in our timeframe and we lose hope we never lose hope in God was effective, says live carefree before God, the King James has cast all your cares upon him because he cares for you. Carefree is not alone carefree as I have taken my needs and my mic difficult situations, and I take them to God in prayer. I think that the gods I am living carefree, meaning that God is the one who's taking care of me and the cares I have. I place them in God 's hand and I must have with the guidance through the MSM wisdom and understanding to live my life and understand that God is Medicare for me. So in the daily struggles. We bring them all to God. And so I bring out the gone and I live a carefree world, meaning that God will take care of me and he is most careful with me most careful German play ball in the house, not me. You're my mother told me I was to break the windows of any kind. I finally did F- take the ball and how to throw the ball bouncing off the couch. We can have one and spring things that throw back at the outside wheel and account inside. Eightball throating his couch and bounce back my mothers don't imagine ever going to the lab I listened to a broken window.

Why, because there are some things you have to be most careful with because they're fragile in our life. God is most careful with you, meaning that he knows where we are fragile you know where we are most easily hurt. He knows exactly what makes us what our makeup is and he is most fragile with us, please both careful with us because we are fragile. It will doesn't have that sensitivity. God does God is both careful with you and doubt will cause us to challenge those fragile areas of our life and we end up shattering them. Takes the truth and questioned, but God is most careful with you down, says God does not care for me, but God says I am most careful with you there must be a truth that we believe Ford doubt to be effective, easy gout foot and have a foothold in our life if we didn't have something that we expect people who are totally indifferent.

I believe in nothing you believe in God don't have to believe in God you believe in demo battle with the devil of Lynn got doubly been the devil where you can. There's no truth of the betrayal. How can you doubt where there is no truth. You see, people are reluctant people, people tell lies in a single evening. God says this is the true and the truth will set you free take it, and it's yours and it will work. All I doubt that God doesn't try to make out believe it, just like in the end the Bible says that the there is no explanation of God. God dispensed where God come from you before the beginning began, there was God always was, always will be time established in the middle so we are coming to wildlife and coming to the understanding of what God is doing in our life, and the truth is presented to us in doubt comes along. If we are adopting something, it's only because there is the truth that God wants you to believe in evil. One should not imagine that so it has to and have to take a positive, affirming word from God. Before there can be done. There must be a positive, affirming word from God to your life before, doubt can come and challenge, though even that tree will has God really say that why did God not want them to eat of the tree so that they would understand it. They are all misplaced concepts and it are alive, has let us know he owned this place. He breathed into what honest the breath of life and we are living soul. We are going to live forever, and when time is no more. We're still going to live. We're still going to be alive because life cannot die. This body can perish but live will never stop. And in our choices in life, choosing God gives us the life that is eternal with Jesus Christ. Without truth there can be no doubt the truth comes otherwise I would plan for you.
