They then invite people to join in prayer and answer questions. The speaker shares a testimony about God providing financial help. They also pray for individuals struggling with mental and physical issues. The speaker discusses the importance of understanding God's word and the role of the Holy Spirit. They address questions about prayer and whether drinking is a sin. The speaker encourages love and engagement with friends who may criticize one's faith. They also discuss the shape of the Earth and the importance of not letting anger control one's actions. The speaker ends by addressing how to start prayer and the importance of talking to God. Good morning, good morning, good morning. How is everybody doing? Praise God. Let's get this up a little higher. There we go. That's good. All right. Good morning, everybody. Got my coffee here. Good morning, good morning. Brother Ray, how are you? Good morning. How's the family doing? Hope you're good. Good morning, good morning, everybody. I tell you what, we'll start praying. Let's get a couple hundred on here and we'll start praying, but until then, I can answer questions and we can just talk, everybody. Amen. Good morning, in-law, is going into surgery. Father God, I just pray for the in-law. I pray, Father God, for a speedy recovery. I pray, Lord, that you would just anoint the hands of the surgeons, touch the room, anyone in the room, any medical professional, I pray that you would just bless them. Father, once again, we pray for a speedy recovery. We ask in the name of Jesus. Amen. All right. Good morning. Good morning, good morning, good morning. How are we doing this morning? All right. Let's talk a bit. Let's get praying. Today is Wednesday. We are going to pray for people. I ask y'all to pray. Zach, good morning. I ask y'all to pray with me as the requests come, but let's give it a few minutes so we can answer some questions. Like I say, I always say, if I don't know it, I'll get back with you. If I don't know it, because there's a lot of things I don't know, so amen, amen. And I'll tell you what I'm going to do this morning. Maybe you guys want to share a prayer that was answered. Something that you prayed for and it was answered. Let's talk about it. I'll chime you in. Pray for me. Well, bro, or brumette, I hope that works out. Hope everything comes out okay. Let's put it that way. Morning, grateful for your prayer the other day. Praise God. Thank you. How's it going, fellows from Japan? Been to Yokosuka, Osaka, Tokyo. I love Japan. Love it. Morning, Paul. Struggling in all areas of my life right now. Mentally disorganized and physically tired. How can I begin to organize? Good morning, Lydia Bad Knees. Father God, I pray for the individual that is dealing with the whole thing about organization with regards to mental issues and all that kind of stuff. Lord, I pray that you will bring them a peace. I pray that you bring them a joy and understanding. Lord, I pray that you allow them to understand they have a focus. And if they would just keep that focus, Father God, that things will be okay. Lord, I pray for the individual who is having knee problems. I pray for them, Father God. I pray that right now in the name of Jesus that the pain will be removed and that they will be able to ambulate and do what they need to do without pain. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. If I close my eyes and I don't see a prayer, repeat it again or one of the moderators will type it in for me. So if I miss that prayer, please, please. God provides prayer. Amen. To help financially, he gave me overtime and a bonus all at the same time. Did you hear that? Did you hear that? This young man, now, he said he prayed. Watch this. God didn't give him money, but God gave him overtime, all right? And because he was committed to the overtime, now what happens is they gave him a bonus. Good morning, Mercy Me. Oh, Father God, I pray for the folks, the citizens of the earthquake. Father, you know the circumstance and you know the situation. Father, I pray that healing and restoration, I pray for recovery. I pray, Father God, that you would just bless and that you would heal, that you would restore, Father God. But Lord, I pray in the name of Jesus that they would turn to Jesus, that they would turn to God in the name of Jesus. Lord, I pray for that. I pray that this opportunity, that the message of Jesus Christ be preached, Father God, for Lord, we know you are the only way, Father. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. So Ray was just giving a testimony. God gave him a bonus. God gave him the ability to work more. God is not a cosmic slot machine that we pull and ask for what we want. God provides opportunity. And if we will just take that door and step through it. Praise be to God. Thank you for sharing that. Please pray for me to fully understand his word and the Holy Spirit dwells in me mentally struggling. Father God, I pray for this individual. But Lord, I pray that you would give the anointing, the power of the Holy Spirit. For Lord, you said to ask you and you would give us that understanding. Lord, and I pray for them. I pray that they would just delve into the scripture and be a student of that scripture. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. I want you to know something though. I've been studying this word for a long time. And I've come to the conclusion that with my finite mind, I cannot completely understand it. But the Holy Spirit will teach you. What man can't, the Holy Spirit will lead and teach you. But what I do pray that you would do is that you would keep your focus in the word, that you would keep your focus in the word and God will reveal in due season. However, this is so deep, we can never find bottom. All right. Let's see. Let me back up. Let me back up. Why are some prayers never answered? I think that's a great question. I'm going to answer it in a very simple way. My father used to tell the congregation prayer goes like this. Yes, no, wait. Not every prayer can be answered. Yes, no, wait. Wow. Wow. Good morning, pastor. So glad I logged on. Good to see you this morning, brother. Yes, no, wait. All prayer, you know, a lot of times we want God to act immediately. We want God to be stacked. But sometimes some prayers are unanswered, but not unheard. God hears our prayers. God hears our prayers. With that being said, I put it up like this. Maybe God doesn't want me to do that. Or maybe God doesn't want me to receive that. There are many prayers that were not answered. But as I go forward, I realize, ah, God, I see what you're doing. However, do not let that minimize your faith in God. Now, I give you one last example. Did you give your children, if you're a parent? If not, did your parents, or if you are a parent, do you give your children everything they want? And if you did, how did that work out? Think about that. We'll leave that. Let's back up. I hope I didn't miss anything. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay. What do we got here? What do we got here? Hang on. Hang on. Somebody said something about passed away. What were we talking about there? I didn't want to miss anything. That might have been super important. What was that? What was that? What was that? What was that? Super important. What was that? What was that? Look, the virgin will conceive a child. She will give birth to a son, and they will call him Emmanuel, which means God is with us. Amen. Amen. I saw the verse. I wanted to read it real quick. Emmanuel. I'm assuming. I can only assume. What led to that? What led to that? What led to that? What led to that? What led to that? What led to that? What led to that? What led to that?

What led to that? What led to that? What led to that? What led to that? What did Paul say? We're in the world, but we're not of the world. We are pilgrims passing through. Our citizenship is not here, but it's where? There. So praise be to God. Amen. Love it. Love it. I pray that God use him in a mighty way. I pray that God use him in a mighty way to convince other individuals in that faith to turn to Jesus. Somebody says, is drinking a sin? Now watch this. Drinking is not a sin. It's not a sin. But here's the real question. Is gluttony a sin? Yes. Getting drunk and being drunkard, is that a sin? Yes. Now though, what benefit does alcohol bring you? And why do you drink? How is it helping you? Food for thought. I'm new to Christianity. Thank you, Pastor Paul. Praise be to God. Follow me. Reach out to me. I want to encourage you to keep your head up, to keep the faith, stay in your word. I hope you're in a Bible-believing church. Please. There we go. You know what? I'm supposed to be praying. I got to look at some prayers too here. What do we got for prayer? To be drunk is the sin. Amen. To be drunk. Wine is good for you. And why God made wine. Large consumptions at the point that you get drunk is not good for you. However, even Paul told Timothy to drink a little wine for the stomach in the area that he was in. Suppressed you have not been thrown off. I am thinking about it. Okay. Yes, yes, yes. Good morning. Praise God. I'm not quite sure I understand that question. To live out your faith. I'm not sure what you're saying there. I feel I can keep a younger brother off the path and say, okay. Praise God. If someone understands that question, answer it for me. I'm not quite. Maybe it goes by so quick. I thought I saw live out your faith. There's nothing wrong with living out your faith. We're going to live out our faith. I'm taking that out of context. Somebody help me out on that one. What do you recommend to do about friends that try and bash you for being a Christian? Love them. Love them. Let me recommend a book, if I may. It's called Tactics. Get that book. Tactics. If you've not heard of it, get it. Tactics. The last name of the author is Call? Call? Tactics. You have friends that want to bash you. You love them. Matter of fact, engage in conversation. Don't argue, but engage in conversation and ask them why they believe what they believe. Now, they'll say things like, well, you know, the Bible is written by men, this and that, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Don't argue with them. Love them. But look at a book called Tactics. Tactics. Like tactical warfare. And since we're in spiritual warfare, it makes sense. So there you go. Do you think the earth is a globe or flat? Well, I think it's round. I think it's round. But does it matter? I don't mean disrespectful, but I got a buddy who, I'm not going to mention his name, but he's a wonderful man of God. He's a Christian. Lambril, you know him, too. If y'all hear me mention Lambril, we live in the same area, the same community. We know the same people, so that's what it is. But this gentleman always brings that up, and he's a flat-liner. He believes it's flat. And I always say, I just say, who cares? Who cares? All right? It doesn't matter. Who cares? So that's a, and I don't mean disrespect. It's probably a very sincere question from your perspective. But don't, there are deeper things to think about when it comes to the word that I wouldn't even worry about it. All right. Jesus was our teacher to guide us in avoiding sin and not our free path to get away with sinning. Amen. What does Paul say? Do we keep on sinning that grace may abound? Let me pray right here. Father God, I pray for this individual that's dealing with anxiety. I pray that you would give them that peace that surpasses all understanding. Lord, I pray that you would give them that power, the anointing of the Spirit, to know that you are our hope, that you are our peace, that you are our grace and our mercy, Father God. I pray that they would keep their eyes to the heavens. They keep their focus on you, Father God. Lord, I pray that you would bless them in the name of Jesus right now. Amen. Amen. All right. There you go. There you go. Gregory. And is that Coke? That wonderful book. Where do you think that reads? Who is that? Let me, can you go, watch this. Listen, I want to do this. You name that book so quick. I met somebody. I think I want to, if we can talk. Can we talk? I'm going to follow you. No bio, but can we follow? Message. Ah, I wanted to talk to you. Is that, let's see, Rekt Rob? I was trying to see if you could go on here with me and we could talk about it. Great book. Lost custody of my son due to my anger issues. Anger issues. Pray for me now. I've been taken to court. Father God, I pray for this individual with regard to their anger issues. Lord, I pray in the name of Jesus right now that that anger issue will be minimized. That this individual will operate in love. I pray that his family be restored. I pray, Father God, in the name of Jesus that they will be led by the Spirit. Father God, I pray right now in the name of Jesus that anger will be diminished. I ask this, Lord. I pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen. You know, Peter had anger issues. Peter had anger issues. And the last violent act that Peter did was cut someone's ear off. But Jesus restored him, and I guarantee you that from that point on out, the only thing that Peter was hyped about was proclaiming the gospel. So let that anger issue subside. I want you to be led by the Spirit. Get your family back together. All right? So don't go to court. Don't get upset. Don't get furious. I want you to bring it in, and I want you to be led by the Spirit, not by the flesh. Don't operate in emotion. Do not operate in emotion. I know you love your child. I know you feel hurt. You feel like you're being controlled. But please, please, please, please hear my voice as you go to court. Do not act a fool in that room. Do not allow Satan to use you as a pawn. Keep your focus and be led by the Spirit. Amen. All right. We need you on TV. No, I'm fine just right here. I don't need to be on TV. I'm fine just right here. But you all can tune in and watch me here. You get on TV, and next thing you know, people are trying to throw money at you and stuff. No, I'm good right here. Don't allow Satan to steal your family. Amen. How do you start prayer? Just start praying. Just start praying. How do you talk? You talk to people. You don't ask people, how do I talk? You just talk. Pray. Lord, thank you. Thank you. I talk to my father like he's my father. I talk to him as he's my shield, my buckler, my friend, my creator with reverence. Joshua, what's up, man? But don't, don't, just talk to him. Just talk to him. He'll hear your prayers. Pray for me to do well on my psychology test today and to have a fulfilling fellowship with my sisters. Father God, I pray for this individual who is taking their exam, but Lord, I pray that they study, that they prepare so that they can do the possible because you are going to provide the impossible to allow their recovery of their intellect to be able to answer those questions. And Lord, I pray that she has a loving interaction with her sisters. I pray that you would bless those unions. I pray that you would just bless this circumstance and this situation. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Hey, one of the great phrases I love to use. I didn't invent it. I always use it. Heard a friend of mine named Pastor Gus use it. We do the possible and God does the impossible. That means if you're going to take a test, and this applies for anything in life, you know, people say, Pastor Paul, pray for my marriage. What are you doing to make your marriage work? What possibility do you have to make your marriage work? We can ask God and we can pray, right? But let's do the possible. So this young lady said, pray for me that I may pass my test. What did you have to do? The possible was study. Do your due diligence to get in that. Now, though, the impossible is when there's distraction and people are getting up, finishing their test, that God will bring a calmness of peace to you. And that's the impossible. And all of a sudden you find yourself, boom, boom, boom. But that right there, thank you, that right there is with anything in life, anything. Work, you know. Somebody said, Lord, give me a job. What are you doing to get the job? Lord, let me get a bachelor's degree. What are you doing to get that bachelor's? Lord, help my marriage. What are you doing to make your marriage work? You do the possible. God does the impossible. You get that? You can't just now, let's be real, let's be real. Okay, let me give you a little, I'll keep praying. Praying, prayer for overcoming addiction. Okay, I'm going to pray for that. But what are you doing to overcome it? Are you in a program? Are you around like-minded people? But I'm going to pray. God is going to answer that prayer. But I want you to do the possible, okay? Father God, I pray for this person who's dealing with addiction. I pray for them in the name of Jesus right now that you will give them that recovery, that you give them that breakthrough. And Father God, I pray that you would surround this individual with like-minded people. And Father God, when temptation comes, I pray that this individual knows that you shall give them a way out. And I pray in the name of Jesus and the possibility that they take it. Father, we pray for that. We ask for that. We ask in the name of Jesus. Amen. Do you know when sin comes, God gives a way out? That's the impossible part. But here's the possible. You take it. God will give the way out. That's the impossible part. But when it comes, you go. Do you get it? Let's not, let's not. Y'all, we, we, we, nothing wrong with prayer. But we got to do something. Let me give you the example. Prayers, I'm getting a pacemaker today. Father God, we pray in the name of Jesus for this individual who's getting a pacemaker. Lord, I pray for the anointing of the surgeons, the anesthesiologists, the nurses, the technicians. I pray that that pacemaker go in and it works with precision. Father, we thank you for all wisdom and all knowledge that you've given people to be able to do this. Father, we just thank you in advance. And Lord, we pray for a speedy recovery. That heart, that pacemaker, that anatomy will just work in precision, Father God. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. All right. I'm excited. I'm excited. I want to hear a report on that when you get that fast recovery. Prayers for liberation. Father God, we pray for liberation. We pray for delivery. We pray for the victory. Pastor Paul, can you please pray for the poor, cold, and hungry and those afflicted by the earthquake? Father God, we come again before the throne of grace. Those that are enduring the pain, the hunger, the freezing weather, the situation with regards to the earthquake. But, Lord, I pray that there will be soldiers on the ground. I don't mean military soldiers, but I mean godly soldiers in the name of Jesus that will go and feed and give water and just embrace and love and share the good news of Jesus Christ. I pray for that, Lord, for this opportunity for the soldiers of Christ to share the love of Christ to a nation in need. Lord, I pray for that. I pray for that, Lord. I pray. And I pray, Lord, that you would just use every available body to share their abilities to help those that are in need. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. Praise God. Okay, Nancy, please pray that God take my problems away. Amen. Father God, you know the circumstance. You know the situation. I pray in the name of Jesus that those problems will be removed, Father God. But, Lord, I pray that Nancy take every step possible to make sure those problems are removed and that God will step in and do the impossible so that those problems will be removed forever. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. All right. So, prayer. We do the possible. God does the impossible. I've shared this joke before, but it's a cute story. There was a neighbor. There was a man and a woman that lived next door to each other. And the woman was a Christian, and she always gave honor to God. She always praised God. She did it publicly. She did it in the backyard. She did it in the front yard. Her neighbor, who was an atheist, was just so, you know, belittling. Oh, there's no God. You know, you got a sky daddy and all this stuff. But she'd never allow her faith to be affected by his negativity. So, one day, he decided he knew that she needed food, and he decided to play a joke on her. So, she left for a period, left the house and jumped in her car and went to go run some errands. And he went out and bought groceries and put the groceries on her porch. Well, she drove up to her surprise. There's all those groceries. And she put her hands in the air. She was like, oh, thank you, Jesus, that you brought me food. And you are a great God, a loving God. And she was headed to the mountaintops. But the neighbor popped out of the bushes. He said, God didn't provide those groceries. I bought those groceries. Your God didn't do anything. It was me. The woman looked at him, and she put her hands up in the air. She said, Lord, thank you for making the devil buy me groceries. There you go. So, there's power in some prayer, folks. God is able. God is, is, is, is, is. Don't allow your faith to be shooken up by people around you. Keep your faith in God. Once again, I reiterate, we do the possible. God does the impossible. For healing in her body and for Jamie's family, for peace during his passing. Father God, I pray for this family. I pray for healing and for peace. I pray, Father God, for the events that are taking place in this family, Lord. You know the circumstances. You know the details, Lord. And Lord, I pray in the name of Jesus for them. Amen. Amen. Praise God. Praise God. We've got 166 people here. I think we've answered, what, maybe 10, 20 prayers. Praise God. Pray for my son, Raymond. Father God, I pray for Raymond right now. I don't know the circumstance, but you do. I don't know the situation, Lord, but you do. But I pray, Father God, for Raymond. Whatever that is, Lord, I pray. I pray. I pray, Father God. I ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. All right. Let's see. Tomorrow, jump on, and we'll talk about Psalms. We're going to pray today, but if you don't mind, please shout me out tomorrow. I'm with my mom. She's almost died last year. Can you pray for Diane and her healing? Lord, thank you for delivering Diane last year. I want to start with that, Lord. Thank you for delivering Diane, the mother of this individual, delivering her from last year. But, Lord, I pray for healing. I pray for restoration. For, Lord, it's said in the Word, by your stripes we are healed. And, Lord, those stripes are when you took that beating before the cross for us. But I pray for her. I pray for healing in her body, restoration in her body. And I pray, Father God, that you will deliver her from the pain or whatever it is that is happening, Father God. I pray that in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. All right. Pray for them. Pray for... Amen. I pray for those folks. Folks, that earthquake, I don't want anybody to have to endure such... I've been in an earthquake. Not to that magnitude. Matter of fact, I was in the epicenter, San Simeon, California. It was an earthquake that killed a handful of people. I don't want anybody to ever be in an earthquake. But know this. We are in the last days. This is God tapping us on the shoulder, getting us alert. We are in those days. Jesus is coming soon, folks. It's time to get ready. And trust me, we are praying for those in the earthquake. And they're praying, Lord, reveal yourself, who you are. Why would you let this happen to us? See, that's what's going on. See, things are all working together. They're working out. They're working out. God is revealing himself. So I am praying for those in that earthquake. But God is getting the attention of people. They get them out of their religiosity and pointing to his son, Jesus Christ. That's what God is doing. And on a global scale, there's so many things happening at a high rate. God is getting our attention, and we need to listen. Those who do not want to listen, well, they will be dealt with accordingly. So there you go. But I don't want anybody to have to go through that. Can you pray for a work of inner opportunities after graduating college this year? All right, she's done the possible. Went to college. Now God is going to open up the door to do the end. Well, now you got to do some application and all that school stuff. But here we go. I'm going to pray. Father God, this individual has done their due diligence to get through school. But, Lord, I pray that you will provide an opportunity, that you would bless this individual to have the confidence in you that you can open the door that no man can close, that you can make an opportunity where there is no opportunity. Father, I pray that you give us the ability to know that they can do all things through Christ. Father, I pray right now in the name of Jesus that this individual can boldly go before the throne of grace and speak to you that will give them that blessing, that boldness, that confidence that only you can provide. Father, and I pray once this individual gets the job that they want, that they will give you all the praise and all the glory of God in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. I feel like God has big plans for my life, not just for me, but to help people. Amen. God wants to give you the desires of your heart. I'm not a prosperity cat by any stretch of the imagination, but I do not diminish God. I believe God watches. Watch this. Quick story. Hang on. A lot of people think I pastor a big church. I'll be honest with you. I've had to really circle back and really get in my heart about this. When I finished Bible school and came back to Arizona, I came thinking, I'm going to pastor a big church. My father's church was, at that time, when I came back, probably 200, 250. At one time it had 400. That's not big to some churches, but that's big to me. And so I figured I'm going to surpass that. Do you know on any average Sunday now, if we have 60 people, that's a lot of people. I've preached sermons to five people before. But you know what? Back to the person who said, I believe God wants to do big things in my life. Do you know that God has blessed me to minister to 450,000 plus people? We'll say 400,000 plus people right here on TikTok. Don't think about doing big things. Think about serving a big God. He will do. Because if you find yourself striving to do big things, and when you don't get there, you will think you have failed. But if you understand that I serve a big God, and whatever he has me do is a big thing. You get me? A little church pastor. I'm just a little country preacher. But God has blessed me with a platform to speak to over 400,000 people. I have people following me from all walks of life. I have all ethnicities. I have all genders. I have all religions. God has blessed me even with the rich and the poor. God is blessed. So don't focus on how to achieve this or a great ministry or this or that. Remember, if you are serving God, you're doing the greatest thing that you can do. And I'm telling you because I made the mistake when I first came back to Arizona to get ministry. And I wasted a lot of time trying to build something. I didn't try to do this on TikTok. This all came from the Lord. I didn't try to do this on TikTok at all. And I've been on TikTok a while now. I mean, even in that, I've been on for four years. And somebody reminded me of that yesterday. I've been on TikTok for four years. And you know, 400,000 is nothing to sneeze at. But on the flip side, that's not a lot for four years. But just do a great job representing the kingdom. That's all you need to do. Okay. I don't want to discourage you. I want you to have that mindset. And God wants to give you the desire of your heart. So there you go. Why do I constantly think of death? I don't know. Are you a born-again believer? Saved by grace and covenant with Jesus Christ? Because death doesn't bother me. It doesn't bother me. Before I was a believer, I'd be out there surfing or I was in the military doing all the crazy things I was doing. That was an issue. Let's see. God bless you, Pastor. This is exactly what we need on TikTok. Amen. Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. Let me back up. Can you pray for a good outcome on court today? Father God, I pray for a good outcome on court today. And I pray that this person has been prayed up. I pray that they go in that room with a humility, a kindness, a gentleness, that you will bless them. And Lord, whatever the outcome may be, your will be done. We ask that in the name of Jesus. Amen. All right. I don't think Jesus worked as a God for anyone. I don't think Jesus. Okay. Lord, I pray for the Gonzalez family. Lord, I don't know the circumstance, but I reiterate, you know. I don't know the situation, but you know. But God, I pray for the Gonzalez family right now in the name of Jesus. And Lord, whatever that is, I pray, Father God, that you would watch over them, that you would keep them. Father, I pray that you would take them through the fire. Father, we ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. All right. Praise God. All right. We've got 143. I'm sure we've got some more prayers. Pastor, please pray for my husband to have financial stability. Father God, I pray for this husband. Lord, I know what it's like to go through that struggle, but I pray that you would bless that husband. But he do the possible, Lord. And what that is, what he needs to do to create that financial stability, I pray. But Lord, I pray for his wife, his wife, that she will support him, that she will lift him up, that she will pray for him. That is the possible. That is the possible. But Lord, I pray that you would just open up that door to bless them, that they will be able to live without worry, Father God. But Lord, I pray that they keep their faith and trust in you, that they would seek the kingdom of God first. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. Who called this line? Deceiver. Jammer. All right. Here we go. Oh, wait a minute. Back up a little. We're moving good. Please pray for Navy brothers and veterans. Father God, I pray for our Navy brothers and sisters. Lord, I pray for veterans. I pray, Father God, those who go out on the line, who go out on the seas, the ones that go down range, the individuals that do the things that provide the blanket of security that we sleep under every night. I pray for our country, Father God. I pray in the name of Jesus that you would just watch over them and keep them in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. All right. I know I'm missing prayers, but know that the moderator's praying. Can you pray for our children? So much evil and destruction. Oh, Father God, I pray, Father God, for children in general. In general, Lord, I pray, Father God. Satan comes to kill, steal, and destroy. But, Lord, I pray that you would put a hedge protection around our children. Lord, even right now I'm thinking of my grandchildren. And, Father, while I don't get to see them all the time and I don't have the greatest relationship, Father, I pray that you would just watch over them. I pray that you would just watch over our children, not just mine, but our children, that you would just keep them encapsulated, that hedge of protection, that you would put those blinders, that you would allow them to see what they need to see. But, Lord, I pray for the parents. I pray for the parents, Father God. I pray that parents, by the droves, by the millions, would turn to the Lord. I pray that parents would start opening up their Bibles, that the children find their mom and dad in prayer, that they find their mom and dad going to church. And not only find them and going, but they're living the life of a Christian, Father God. I pray for that so that the children have a good example. I pray that the TV be turned off, the music be shut down, and that whatever they look at or whatever they listen to may be of quality and may be of God. I pray this in the name of Jesus. Father God, we thank you, we praise you. Amen. You know, Joshua, that's interesting you say that. The Bible talks about children turning against their parents. I'm going to throw this out there. This is Paulology right now. The Bible talks about children turning against their parents. Does anybody know what I'm talking about? Bye. Have a good day. Have a great day. Thank you for saying bye. So, how interesting. We're starting to see remnants of that already. We hear in Arizona, it comes on the news at least once a month, where a child has killed a parent. All right? We're starting to see remnants of that altogether. But let's think about it. Unless the parents are serving God, the children run buck wild. The children will lose faith in their parents, and the children will think in their hearts, I can't trust them, I can't trust the world, so I must fend for myself. And you're going to see a paradigm shift soon, where you're going to see boatloads of children, young people, going against families, going against their mothers, going against their fathers. You're going to see it. It's happening. But see, we as parents, I'm sorry, I'm not judging, but I will see, on TikTok, it saddens me to see some of the parents on TikTok and the poor behavior they have in front of their child. It saddens me to see the language coming out of an adult mouth in front of their children. It saddens me that there are young adults having kids, and they're still kids themselves. Folks, I'm telling you, we are going in America into a very dark place. Why? The lack of God, the lack of the Word of God, no Jesus in their life, no prayer, no example. There was a time in my life, growing up in the household that I grew up in, that I did not look up to my parents. Now, I didn't agree with everything that they said, and sometimes it made me mad. But guess what? My parents provided me shelter. They provided me food. They provided me a good education, safety. I was never violated. I was never hurt. Now, not everybody had that story. I get that. I understand. I'm not here judging. But my point is, my parents lived the example. My kids will tell you. I lived the example. Ms. Debbie lived the example. Perfect? We never declared to be perfect. But my children know what is right and what is wrong. But we're living in a nation. We're a godless nation. And if you're a godless nation, you're going to create godless children. If you create godless children, all things are open. Then you add the influence of what's going on. We talked the other day about the Grammys. I'm going to leave that alone. I'm tired of that subject. However, we talked about the Grammys. That is just atypical of the influence. And we can put our head in the sand and act like it's not there. But trust you and me, Satan comes to kill, steal, and destroy. And who does he want? Your babies. Why? Because that will cause you the most headache. So, you better get right with God, especially young people. If you're not married and thinking about getting married, get your behind in church. Get with the Lord. Be an example to your babies. And not just by mouth. Actions. Let them children see your actions, that you're serving God, that you're praying, that you honor God. You know, my children test me all the time. I've got four girls. I've got three girls and one son. I've got Brittany Shea, who was from a previous marriage. I didn't get to raise her. And so, she doesn't have a relationship with the Lord. Brittany Nicole, that was Miss Debbie's daughter from a previous marriage. She didn't get to raise her. She has a better relationship with the Lord because of her grandmother from her dad's side. And then there's Kiana Ray Abram, my daughter, biological. Me and Miss Debbie. She lives in Oregon. I have my moments where she's at, but she knows better. She knows the truth. She knows what's up. She tests me. She tests me. But she knows where I stand. She knows where my wife stands. And then there's my son, James. I believe in my heart, I'm going to declare and decree, I believe God is going to raise that young man to be a preacher. That's just my opinion. But that's between him and God. I know he's not watching me, so I'm not worried about it. So, there you go. Wait, let me back up. I've got to be answering prayers. I've got to be praying out here. I honor God, but don't go to church. But I listen to the word. Now, I hear what you're saying, but why don't you go to church? The Bible talks about do not forsake the assembly. And it's a beautiful thing to be around people that are like-minded. All right? So, find a good church. If you're ever in Arizona, come visit us. Past Paul fought on being a Catholic, but listening to your word as a Baptist, is it okay or is it a sin? All right. All right. Hang on, let me answer that. Because I want to be, can I be very sincere with y'all about, and don't hate me, y'all. Don't hate me. Okay? But we're going to talk about Catholic and me being a Baptist. All right, let me take a sip. I don't know enough about the Catholic faith to debate or argue with anybody. Nor will I. But I do believe as a Catholic, or any religion, not just Catholics. What does this say? And I think that any individual, especially church-going folks, Christian folks, we need to be in our word. All right? The question, is it a sin? Now, I don't think it's a sin. But what I would do, let's say that I went to Texas Roadhouse. All right, that's one of my favorite places, Texas Roadhouse. And I always order the six ounce sirloin. I always, not always, but the majority of the time I get a baked potato with everything on it. All right? That's usually what I get. And I love the sweet tea. And not to mention the bread. Okay? I'm getting to my point here. If I went to Texas Roadhouse and that bread didn't come out, I'd be like, hey, where's the bread? Because this is one of the reasons we come here. This is what I feel about the Catholic faith. Don't get mad at me. You know, kick me off the air because you feel offended. I'm just trying to talk to you in love. This is how I feel about the Catholic faith. I don't think it's enough. I think you're missing the bread. I think you're even missing the salad. You got portions of the meal, but you don't got the really, you know, the meat and potatoes, illustratively speaking. I think, and trust me, I'm not saying you should go be a Baptist, but to be a true Christian, I think you need to study God's word, and you need to delve in that. I mean, like, there's nowhere I can find in the Bible, I'll just give you one subject, that's all, I'm not going to go down that rabbit hole. I've never found anything about pregatory. But it's taught. It's a doctrine in the Catholic faith. I've never ever, ever, ever, ever found it. But you should be asking yourself, well, wait a minute. If it's not there, let me research, and let me look, and let me get in a Bible-teaching church. The church can be a hooty-hoo church. It doesn't matter. If it's teaching the Bible, that's where I want to be. I want the complete meal. I want the steak. I want the baked potato. I want the bread. I want the salad and the sweet tea. Do you see what I'm saying? Do you see what I'm saying? So, do I think it's a sin that you listen to a Baptist preacher but you're a Catholic? I think it's God using me to let you know, come closer to the Lord, and do that by studying the word. Don't just receive what they're telling you. And I've had—there's a young man. I love him dearly. He's a nice young man. As a matter of fact, he might be here this month. He came all the way from Sacramento to visit me because he wanted to meet me, and he's a die-hard Catholic. And I would tell him the same thing. I would tell him the same thing. I just think there's so much more to the faith than meets the eye. And I would love for you to just really get into your word and say, you know what, I want to know more about that because I just don't. Now, are there some Catholics out there that are studying their word? Absolutely. But then if you're studying the word, then you should see the things I should see in the word because the Bible's not a personal interpretation. But that's me. That's me. I'm not here to beat up Catholics, but I just don't get that faith. I don't get the whole—the listening. Now, I know historically they somehow, in a weird way, were worshiping Mary. But, you know, I've talked to Catholics recently, and they say, no, we don't worship Mary. Okay. I don't know enough to argue. But once again, I know it's not a complete meal. And that's what I'm talking about. It's a complete meal. But there you go. That's my take on it. Well, does the Catholic match the Bible? I don't know enough about the Catholic, but I think they add a little more to it. And then you get the hypocrisy, you know, the mystery books or hidden books. They're not inspired by God, and why would you even, you know— Now, there's some folks out there that would say, you know, the Catholics are going to hell, and it's this and that, and so on, et cetera. I've even got my reservations about the Pope, too. I just—oh, I'm—I don't know. I want the Bible. And what does it say? Even as a Christian, I don't—I don't—I rarely— There are a handful of people I will listen to preach outside of my ministry, outside of the church. I don't just listen to anybody. Why? Because, man, I want to hear what God says. But there you go. That's my take on that. Praise be to God. Pray for our country and its leadership. Amen. Father God, in the name of Jesus, pray for the leadership. Pray for this country. Father, I pray that you will guide our president, vice president, and everybody in this position. But, Lord, I pray. Whoo! I pray for this country. Father, I just see it. We've just gone wild. We're just doing what we want to do and read and give it in like in the days of Noah. Father, I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. Oh, my, my, my. All right. Oh, my, my, my, my. This is—y'all, let's get real. This country's in deep trouble. You have to worry. Let's see. Can you read Matthew 6, 8 through 13? All right. Matthew 6. Oh, my, my, my. Matthew 6, 8 through 13. We're going to go in the NLT version. So, the request is Matthew 6, 8 through 13. He says this. He says, Don't be like them, for your Father knows exactly what you need. Even before you ask Him, pray like this. Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your kingdom—now I'm reading the NLT and my mind is slipping to King James. Wow. May your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day the food we need and forgive us our sins as we have forgiven those who have sinned against us. And don't let us yield to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one. I'll read this one, too. If you forgive those who sin against you, your Heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive you your sins. So, amen. Thank you, Ray, for bringing that to our attention. There you go. There you go. So, amen. What else? What time we got? Let's go about six more minutes. I just don't think I prayed enough. Prayers for my grandchildren raised in Christ, but dabbling in drugs. Father God, I pray for those children. Lord, you said in your Word, train a child. This individual has trained those children. But, Lord, are we taking those kids and we're putting them at the throne of grace, Father God? And I pray for them to come back to the Lord, that those drugs will have no grip on their lives, that those influences will not have a grip on their lives, but they will turn back to God. Father, it is your will that all men repent, Father God. And we ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. They'll come back. They'll come back. Leave their behinds at the throne room of grace. You hear me? Leave their behinds there and let God deal with them. That goes for all of you. You've done your time trying to raise your children. Amen? You've done everything you possibly can. I don't care what's going on. Leave them there. I've left all my kids with God. God will deal with them. Prayers for my sister Irma. Her son passed away. Father God, I pray for Irma right now. Lord, you know her loss. You know what she's dealing with. I pray for her, Father God, for it is hard to lose a child. And, Lord, I pray that you would just not only her, but the family. I pray for a peace and a hope. Lord, I pray that as they are going through this grieving moment, Lord, that you would just show up in their lives to give them that hope, Father. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. That's tough. Oh, that's tough. Father God, I pray for this individual that's going through heartbreak. I pray for them to just touch their heart, Father God. And, Lord, I pray for Nicole's mammogram. I pray, Father God, as they go in there, whatever will be will be. But, Lord, I pray that you will just bless. If something's found, it is found so early that it won't be an issue. If nothing's there, praise be to God. But, Lord, let your will be done. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. I had my closest family member deceive our family. How can I release this? Just release it and give it to God. Just release it. Somebody, Ray, I'm so sorry, had me read that. Just release it. Forgive them. Now, though, now, though, you know where their heart is at. Treat them accordingly. You know where their heart's at. So treat them accordingly. So there we go. Amen. They expose themselves. Okay? You know where they're at. See, they were a family member. You thought they were a certain way. But they show themselves. And so now you know how to deal with them. All right? Love them. But don't let them take advantage. Bless you. I pray for me to be a better man for my wife, mother, and son. Lord, I pray for this individual. I pray that he will be a better person for his family. Father, he'd be a better example for his family, that he'd be a leader, that he'd be the watchman on the wall, Father God, that you will bless him with the power and the anointing, Father God. I pray for them. But, Lord, I pray that he do the possible by reading his word, by going to church, by being around like-minded men, Father God, that he will do that possible. And, Lord, I pray that the impossible will be a part of his life, Father God, that you will show favor upon him, grace, Father, and mercy. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. Amen. Want to be a better man? Make a decision. You're going to be a better man. That's all you got to do. Make a decision. Want to be a better wife? Make a decision. You're going to be a better wife. Father God, I pray for Anya. I pray for her right now. The circumstance, situation, we do not know, but you know, and I pray for her in the name of Jesus right now, Father God. Please, Lord, I pray to you. I ask this. Please, prayer for my daughter and son-in-law. I haven't had walk with the Lord, talking about going to church with kids. Father God, you're talking about it, so that means you're moving. And, Lord, I pray that they will go to church, that they will take those kids, that they will hear the message, that they will turn to God, Father God. If they're talking about it, you're moving, Father. But we, the parents, will keep that in prayer and keep that lifted up. For, Lord, we desire that they turn to you and serve you, for there is no other. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. Praise God. Can you pray for me to give up my vaping addiction? Pray for strength. Father God, I pray that that vaping be eradicated. Lord, I pray every time this individual even vapes, they get sick. Yes. I pray that they get nauseated. I pray that every time they vape in the name of Jesus, that they throw up. And I pray that they will never touch it again. Lord, I ask that in the name of Jesus. Amen. All right. I just prayed that on you. And I don't mean to sound mean, but I pray every time you vape, you get nauseated and throw up. In the worst places, too. Meaning, if you're in public and you're vaping, I pray right there that you get nauseated and throw up. Pray for my drink. Father God, I pray for this individual that has asked for prayer regarding drinking. Lord, I pray that that drinking will be removed. That every time they even smell alcohol or take a sip of alcohol, that they will get nauseated and that they will throw up. I pray that every time they smell alcohol or they take a sip of alcohol, that they get a massive headache. I pray that every time they smell alcohol or sip alcohol, that they find themselves just feeling terrible. Father, we ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. Amen. That's my prayer. Classical condition is an incredible tool. You vaping, you start getting nauseated, you start associating the vaping with nausea, you start throwing up. You're saying, wait a minute, I'm not going to vape. I'm not going to do that anymore. Amen. So here we go. Praise God. Thank you. How can we pray for you? Oh, man. Thank you, brother. Thank you so much. Just pray for me in general. Pray that God will use me in a powerful way, meaning that I will be boldly always teaching the gospel. Pray that the Lord will give me the boldness to just let people know that God loves them. Just pray that God will provide all our needs, me and Miss Debbie, that we not need to worry about. I don't want to worry about things of this world. All I want to do is focus on loving you. Matter of fact, I'm back on live because Miss Debbie has been asking me and people have been emailing me. And I got a couple of messages where people were saying, you know, Pastor Paul, your lives really helped me get through some certain things. And I just believe God was letting me know. I was talking to my buddy Bo yesterday, and he's like, you know, I believe God is really trying to get you back to what you need to be doing. I didn't believe what I was doing. I think he meant to be doing the maximum of what I need to be doing. So just pray for that, please. I'm starting some things I shared yesterday. And, you know, I have to apologize. I talked about yesterday. I've started. I consult. I do consulting. Beyond the church, I'm a pastor. I teach, preach, so on, et cetera. Public speaking, invited to other churches. But I consult for a company, companies. And I'm a medical device background. And I started consulting. I had a company reach out to me. And they said, hey, would you start doing some consulting for us because we're trying to bring our device to market. And I said, absolutely. So I've been working for a company called Blue Grass Vascular. And I do consulting for them. I go in and education training, train doctors, blah, blah, blah. I'm just taking all my years experience in consulting. I have to apologize because yesterday I announced I've started, because I'm consulting, I had to start an LLC. And because I had to start an LLC to protect me and Miss Debbie, if I'm in the OR, if anything happens, I announced yesterday I'm also going to be doing consulting one-on-one. Let's put a period there for now. Or a comma. I've got to go to the apology. I apologize. I brought this up yesterday. And somebody called me out. Oh, here we go. Here's the money scheme. And this and that. And I got a little upset. And I shouldn't have. I shouldn't have let that person get under my skin. But I did. If he's on here, I apologize. I shouldn't have let you get under my skin. However, now let's finish what I was saying. I've started a consulting business. And while I do speak to physicians, I speak to nurses, technicians. I share my understanding of the medical device I represent. I'm also going to be creating a one-to-one consulting for people. And so, let's say this is not a religious thing. This is me sharing my expertise. I want to do one-to-one to develop you to do the things that you want to do. And how that would play out is I would do maybe a five-minute conversation with you, have you call me, and we would talk. And I would see if it's worth your time for me to consult with you. What I would do at that point is I would strategize a plan with you and develop the very gifts that I see in you. I have an incredible ability of discernment. And there are people walking around that I've met that are not utilizing the gifts that God gave them. All I want to do is peel away the onion, and I want you to be the very best you can at whatever you're going to do. And I would take my 40 years of observation. Now, why 40? Well, I'm going to be 60 in March. Forty years from the day that I walked into the military to this present day, I've accumulated just an incredible amount of data, observation of people from all walks of life. I mean, from people, I've accumulated data and knowledge of people who have been homeless, different ethnicities, different, what do you call it, experiences, jobs. The list goes on. And what I want to do is work one-to-one with individuals. Beyond my consulting with medical device, I want to work with individuals and develop in you that thing that causes you to succeed. Now, I'm not promising you wealth. I'm not interested in wealth, none of that. I just want you to be the very best version that you are able to be. Now, though, there's going to be some hard-line conversations. There's going to be me telling you the truth. Let's use an example. Let's say that you are very relaxed. That's a good word. Let's say as I sense in your spirit that you're very relaxed, I'm going to say it like it is. You know, you're lazy in certain areas. And it comes through in your actions. You're very lazy in certain areas. You're going to get mad at me when I tell you that, but I want to be somebody that's very neutral to speak the truth in your life, to let you know if you want to develop and do the things that you want to do, you're going to have to do this and not do this. And like I said, I'm drawn from just an incredible, I mean, I'm drawn from the careers of people I personally know that have succeeded in their field of expert. It doesn't always mean they're rich. It means they've done well. So I'm developing that. The point of telling you all that is yesterday I brought that up and somebody called me. I was, oh, here we go, trying to fleece them. No. No. I'm just taking my gifts, my ability, and I'm just going to share with you how you are able to be the very best that you can, and that's all I'm going to do. So look for that to come out in March. I've asked Josh to create a website for me. He created a cool logo for me. Matter of fact, oh, he created the coolest logo. And so we'll have the website and the e-mail and all that, and what you do is you come on my website and, you know, you can sketch out a time and you'll meet with me over Zoom. It'll probably be a phone call first, then we'll transition to Zoom, and then we'll set up a program, maybe a month, two months, whatever that is, and I think you guys are going to really appreciate that. Now, I will charge. I will charge. This is not a biblical thing. This is Bible, church. That's not to be charged. That's free. That's God. God gave it to me freely, and Lord knows I give it freely. But I will charge in my consulting one-on-one to develop you as a person, and that will, you know, be by the hour. So look forward to that, and there you go. There you go. But I apologize just because I brought that up and somebody was rude. But if you're on here, friend, I apologize. I shouldn't have been short with you. I don't have to prove anything to you. Those who know me know my heart and know what I'm about. So praise God. All right. I should have been off here already. Let's take about three more minutes, and we can answer some more questions, and we'll go about it. Pray for my toddler grandson gets into a godly daycare soon. Father God, I pray that this little one be in a godly daycare, surrounded by godly children and godly families and godly teachers. I pray for this, Lord, for this is your toddler, Lord. This is your baby. Father, I pray that you will put them in that environment, that they will have that foundation, Father, that that will be a soldier for Christ in the next couple decades, Father. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Okay. What's this say? Sorry. Let's go back. Sorry to ask, Pastor Paul, any chance you still hear I Choose Love stickers available? You know what? I don't have any more. But let me see if I can convince Josh to make us some more I Choose Love stickers. All right? Let's start sending I Choose Love stickers out again. And I will, you know, Josh does these things for me, but I will make sure that he gets compensated. And so last time he made my logo for my company, my LLC, and he's like, send me something from Arizona. Really? But we'll get some stickers. Please remind me. All right? Oh, look, Josh, you got it, see? So there you go. My ex finds a man of God. I pray that my ex finds a man of God, a man of God, who will love her and be a great man to her. Father God, we pray for this individual to find a man of God. Please, Lord, I ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. For business advice, I understand charging. Respect, brother, for not charging for God's word. Okay. So you got what I'm saying. I'm not God's word. No, no, no, no, no, no, no charge. But as for development with regards to business or developing yourself to go into the world, perfect example, the person says, give me the inner understanding. That person would enter understanding. So when I graduate college, I'm ready for the real world. I would do one-on-one training with that individual to get them developed for the real world. So that's where I'm at with that. But as for Bible church, no, no, no, no. That's, that's, well, Alyssa police officer, my grant, Alyssa police officer. Father God, I pray for Alyssa. I don't know what's going on, but I pray. I pray. I ask this in the name of Jesus. My future sister-in-law, my future daughter-in-law is named Alyssa. So, okay. Amen. Still struggling. Can you pray healing from narcolepsy with cataplexy and guidance for my life? Okay. Father God, I pray for Issy right now. I pray, Lord. Lord, even though I read it, I don't remember what narcolepsy. The other two, I don't remember. Lord, you know. You know, Father God. And Father, I pray for healing. I pray for restoration, Father God. I pray that you would touch this individual's body. I ask this in the name of Jesus, by the blood of Jesus. Amen. Amen. I'm sorry I couldn't remember the names, but you know. Pray for everyone in the world suffering with mental illness. Lord, I pray for those that are dealing with mental illness, Father God. But I pray that we be empathetic to those with mental illness. Father, I pray that we be patient, we be kind, that we be loving. For mental illness is real. For we know Satan comes to kill, steal, and destroy. And Father God, I pray that we be more sensitive to that subject. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. Let's see. If we are ashamed of Christ, He will. Amen. Amen. Have really bad anger. Need anger management. Pray for me. Father God, I pray for this individual who has declared they have anger issues. Father, I pray in the name of Jesus that that anger be minimized. That they will be led by the Spirit. That they not get so angry, Father God. And we ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Friend, I want you to do the possible. All right? I want you. I don't know what sparks off your anger. I'm sure there's something that really makes it go. But I want you to minimize that. I want you to get away from that. Turn off the news. Be around some like-minded people. Get in your Word. Get in a Bible study. And you will see that anger dissipate. All right? Pray for my sister who lost her husband and is fighting addiction. Father God, I pray for this individual who lost their husband and fighting through addiction. I pray in the name of Jesus. Please, Lord, I pray in the name of Jesus for this individual. Amen. Let me see. What's this? So God has show the way. Amen. Pastor Paul, I'm nervous to share the Word on my campus. Well, you know what? I talked about, once again, somebody put the title up there. Please check out a book called Tactic. Please. He really breaks down something that, you know, and I can talk to anybody. It does not matter. I can talk to anybody. But get this book, Tactic. He really breaks something down that I never really thought about. You know, we don't need to be nervous. What's our nerves from? We are nervous because we're afraid we might not have all the answers. We will not have all the answers. But understand this. It's not our job to win them to Christ. It's God's job. But make yourself available and create honest conversation and dialogue. The book, again, is called Tactic. All right? Tactic. Thoughts on the recent earthquake. I said it earlier. I think God is trying to get our attention. Pray for my niece, Debbie. And I believe God is trying to get our attention. I believe the earthquake is part of it. But once again, I think we're in the last days. I think that's all of the things that we need to look at. Yes, Ray said it. Ray Comfort, a great one right there. Great one. There you go. Let me back up. Someone said pray for Debbie. I did that. Thoughts on the earthquake. Father, I pray for Debbie in the name of Jesus, in the name of Jesus. Amen. I need a financial breakthrough. I'm afraid I'm going to lose everything. You know what? Oh, wait. Marriage ended five years. I still battle with bitterness. Okay. I believe in God, but not heaven and hell. Well, if you've got to believe in God, you've got to believe in God's word. And if you believe in God's word, you've got to believe in heaven and hell. However, there's something I wanted to answer there. Okay. Me and Miss Debbie have been homeless. We lost everything. But as long as you've got breath in your body, as long as you can still get up, if you lose everything, you lost it. Move forward. All right? Fight the good fight. Don't let possessions rule your life. Me and Miss Debbie were homeless, living in a camper up and down the beach. Our kids, two little ones, were in diaper. I was ashamed to tell my parents. I was ashamed to tell our parents. I worked. I worked at a dialysis center. And we lived in a camper. If you lose everything, you lose it. But if you've got breath in your body, you can fight another day. All right? I hope you don't lose it. But don't, don't, don't. This is not the end. It might be the beginning. All right? Please. Yes, sir. I was referring to losing my family. I've been homeless before. Oh, wow. Okay. Well, Fran, I'm sorry. I took it out of context. Father, I just pray right now for their family. I pray for their family. I pray, Father God, that you'll keep them together, Lord. And, Lord, I pray that this individual is doing the possible. Whatever damage might have been done, Lord, I pray that somehow that can be forgotten. And, Father, I pray that this family can move forward. Lord, we know that Satan comes to destroy families. Father, we ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen. All right. So, tomorrow, 6.30 a.m., we're going to be talking about grace and mercy and praise be to God. Grace, unmerited favor. Mercy, not receiving what we deserve. Incredible subjects. Incredible doctrines. So, let's look at that tomorrow. And praise be to God. Thank you, guys, for allowing me to pray with you all and praying with me. We just thank you. We thank you. But know this. Hear me out. Each one of you, you're made in the image of God. You're image bearers. Each one of you are fearfully and wonderfully made. You're on this earth for a purpose. God has got a plan for your life. Satan would like to kill and steal and destroy you and everything around you. But I need you to keep your focus on the cross, symbolically speaking. I need you to keep your head up. And I need you to press in every day. You cannot retreat. You cannot surrender. You cannot wallow in misery. You have to continuously push forward. When do you stop? When the Lord calls you home. But if you're breathing and you wake up and you're breathing and you're still in the land of the living, God has got a plan for you. All right? Know. Know this. Miss Debbie and myself, we love you. We love you. We don't have to know you, but we love you. And you are continuously in our prayers. Let me close this out in prayers real quick. Father God, as I was speaking, I'm sure some prayer requests were coming through. And you know those prayers. You know each one of them. You know the circumstance. You know the situations, Lord. And I pray. I pray for each of those prayers. And, Lord, I just thank you for allowing me to speak into each individual's life. And thank you for this opportunity on this platform that you allow me to talk and share. But, Father, I pray that you would use me, not only me, but each one of us, that we may share the gospel. For the individual who is nervous about sharing on the campus, I pray that you give them that spirit of confidence. And, Lord, I pray that the individual that is going through marital issues, I pray for them that you would just restore their marriage. Maybe the kids that have a straightaway, I pray that you would just bring them back. Maybe the individual who is worried about their finances, I pray, Father God, that you would just bless them to see that they are alive to see another day. Finances come and go. Lord, I pray for the individuals that lost someone last night. I pray for them that you would give them a peace, that you would just comfort them in their time of need. And, Lord, every prayer that was brought up and all the prayers that are being brought up right now, I pray for them. But, Lord, I pray that each one of us will seek the kingdom of God. That each one of us will keep our focus on you. That we would bless your holy name. That we would lift you up in every circumstance. That we would understand that you are God and nothing slips under your radar. Father, we will forever praise your name. And, Lord, last but not least, I pray for those that have been hurt or devastated or somehow, someway been affected by the earthquake. Lord, I pray again that you would send soldiers of Christ. That they will provide the physical needs of each individual that they encounter. Lord, I pray that you will send soldiers of Christ who provide spiritual need to share the gospel and good news of Jesus Christ. And, Lord, I know some will not understand why that would happen. But, Lord, I pray and I see the opportunity that the gospel be shared in love, in gentleness, in kindness. With sympathy and empathy, but most importantly, sharing Jesus. Father, we thank you, we praise you, and we ask all of this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Alright, everybody. God bless you. Thank you, Pastor Paul and moderators in Jesus' name. May you fill the blessings up on you by Jesus. We receive that. Alright, moderators. Thank you. Thank you. Have a great day. God bless you. I will see you all tomorrow at 0630 Mountain Standard Time. Take care. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye.
