Speaker 2 (03:33):
Last week we ran Genesis chapter sixteen, and I said
that God sees me. Amen, let's see what we got today, Amen.
Genesis chapter twenty one, verse number fourteen. And Abraham rooms
up early in the morning, took bread and a bottle
of water and gave it unto Haguard, putting it on

(03:54):
her shoulder.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
And the child and sent her away.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
And she departed and wandered inness of beer Sheba, and
the water.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
Was spin in the bottle.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
And she cast the child under one of the shrubs,
and she went and set her down over against him
A good way off as it were a bowshot. For
she said, let me not see the death of the child.
And she said, over against him, and lift up her
voice and wealth. And God heard the voice of the Lad,

(04:27):
and the Angel of God called to Hagar.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
Out of heaven and said, unto her, what's wrong with you? Girl?
Whatell If thee Hagar.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
Fear not, for God have heard the voice of the
lad where he is arise, Lift up the lad hold
him in thy hand, God Almighty, for I will make
him a great nature.

Speaker 7 (04:53):
And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well
of water.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
And she went and filled the bottle with water.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
And gave the lad dreams.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
Amen.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
May God bless the readers, the hearers, and the doers
of His holy word for the time that is ours
to share it today.

Speaker 5 (05:13):
I want to talk about these words. God. Here's me
a man. God, look at your neighbor, and said neighbor,
old neighbor. I'm so glad that God hears. Amen.

Speaker 3 (05:30):
Now you made me see that, and rest in this place.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
In eighteen twenty two, Harriet Tubman was born a slave,
but Harriet Tubman decided that she was not going to
remain in the same situation that she was in.

Speaker 3 (05:55):
Not only did she decide that she was not.

Speaker 2 (05:57):
Going to remain in the same situation, but she decided
that she would.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
Do something about others in her same condition.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
And on the plantation.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
Meanwhile, slaves were working daily in the fields, doing what
the master demanded and commanded under the brow and the
beating of tough labor, right all right, But at night
and oftentimes during the end of their ship, there was

(06:33):
always a message of some secret meeting that was taking place.
For do you not realize that back in those days
that if you.

Speaker 7 (06:44):
Were found praying to God as a slave, that you
would be killed. It took place on a plantation as
to be plantation.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
And you can look it up for the historical records.
The record notes that there was a slave that was
praying on.

Speaker 7 (06:59):
The ass the plantation that disappeared because the.

Speaker 4 (07:04):
Master killed him.

Speaker 7 (07:06):
Harry Tubman escaped from slavery and went to Philadelphia.

Speaker 4 (07:13):
Only time you hear me make any reference to the Super.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
Bowl today is that right there.

Speaker 7 (07:18):
But before he escaped, and while she escaped, he led
others to safety as well. Quietly in the night, there
were some that.

Speaker 4 (07:30):
Were quietly praying and asking.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
God to hear their pry and to deliver them from
the evil institution of slavery.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
But it seemed like.

Speaker 4 (07:43):
God was not answering their prayers. As a matter of fact,
many slaves thought that God did not hear them.

Speaker 7 (07:52):
But over the process of time, God showed himself faithful
through the works of those.

Speaker 4 (07:59):
Like Harriet Took.

Speaker 7 (08:00):
Well, my brothers and sisters, that's your Black history moment.
But I come to tell you that we don't need
to go back into the history book to make an
understanding and make it know that God answers prayers. We
don't need to go and look at Harry and Tubman.
You can just look at yourself and testify that I'm
here because God hears me. Is there anybody in this

(08:22):
place that grateful today? Is because God?

Speaker 3 (08:25):
Here's you?

Speaker 4 (08:27):
Come walk with me through this text, My brothers and sisters.

Speaker 7 (08:30):
Last week we talked to you about a messed up
situation of an unblended, blended family.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
Some of y'all have get that on your way home.

Speaker 7 (08:39):
Where there were two children that were born. We dealt
with a man named April, and we dealt with a
woman named Seyrah, and we dealt with the woman named Heygard.
Hagard was the slave Eva of Syrah gave her slave
to Abram and said, listen.

Speaker 4 (08:59):
God is promised the son.

Speaker 7 (09:01):
But God must not be hearing what he says, because
God has not answered that prayer. So let me help
God out. Why don't you go and I'm gonna give
you my slave, and you have a child by my sleeve.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Abram did not fus at the age of eighty six.

Speaker 7 (09:18):
He's got a younger woman, and he's with this younger
woman and has a child. Don't look at me like that.
If you want to understand something, you want to read,
you ain't got to read up all the time, Bloyd.

Speaker 4 (09:27):
Just pick up the Bible and read the Bible. There's
some stuff in the Bible.

Speaker 7 (09:31):
That will make you see that there were folks in
the Bibles that were imperfect.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
But God perfects all men. What's this? What's this?

Speaker 7 (09:39):
And so the Bible says that she goes unto Abram,
Abram goes under her, She conceives has a son, names
him Ismael. Look at your neighbor and say Ismail. Y'all
know what Ishmael means, don't you? Ismaeil means the Lord?

Speaker 1 (09:52):
He is all right, what's this? He has a son?

Speaker 7 (09:55):
Named Ismael, and now the Bible says that he is.
When she's pregnant with Ismael, she he gets on the run.
And when she gets on the run, the age of
the Lord says, go back, submit yourself to Sarah.

Speaker 4 (10:05):
You're gonna have a town is naming Ishmael.

Speaker 7 (10:08):
Didn't tell him that everything, didn't tell her that everything
was gonna be all right, but says, go back.

Speaker 4 (10:13):
She goes back to the house and chapter number sixteen.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
But when we get to chapter number twenty one, we
find out that the promised son has been born.

Speaker 7 (10:21):
Right, God has delayed, and when Abraham.

Speaker 4 (10:26):
Received the word, it was about fourteen fifteen.

Speaker 7 (10:29):
Years before God finally lived up to what he had promised.
So at the right old age of one hundred years old,
Abraham is holding a baby.

Speaker 1 (10:39):
Boy that they name Ida.

Speaker 7 (10:41):
At the right age of ninety years old, save Ron
is now holding a baby and nursing a baby that
is her own called Isaac, which means laughter.

Speaker 4 (10:53):
At the age of one hundred and at.

Speaker 7 (10:55):
The age of ninety, God has fulfilled his promise.

Speaker 4 (11:00):
All right, let me stop and preach right there for
just a.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
Moment, just because God doesn't move when you wanted to
move just because he's not a quick, fain way type
of God.

Speaker 7 (11:09):
Just because when you say I took three people and
claim it in the name of Teaesus that he doesn't
do it, it doesn't mean that God doesn't hear. Do
I have anybody here? It took a while for God
to answer those prayers? But God always keeps his promises.
Is there anybody that can justify that God always keep
his promise and it may not come when you want him, but.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
He always right a time?

Speaker 4 (11:37):
What's the textas table texas taking to teach us something?

Speaker 7 (11:40):
First of all, I want you to know that sometimes
there is going to be a delay to God's divine direction.
When but wats this and when Ishmael is born? Chapter
number one, what chapter twenty one? What we find out
is in the very beginning the words of the text
state this and want you to know that at what
God had said, look at.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
It is right there. If you go to verse number
one of chapter number twenty one, and.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
You go to verse number two, you see something very
interesting right there in the text.

Speaker 1 (12:10):
Let me pull it up and show it for show.

Speaker 7 (12:12):
It to you, he says, And the Lord did Uncle Sarah,
as he has spoken.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
Verse number two at the said time over which God.

Speaker 7 (12:22):
Has spoken, I'm trying to help somebody understand is that
whatever God speaks, it will come to pass.

Speaker 4 (12:29):
Abraham the name has been changed from April to Abraham.

Speaker 7 (12:33):
Saint Rad's name has been changed from Saint Rah to
Saint Rah because now they are living on the promises
that God hath to feel that out of your lords,
I'm going to bless you and make you the father
of many nations.

Speaker 4 (12:50):
Now we see some.

Speaker 7 (12:51):
Situations that's taking place in the home of this great
man by the name of Abraham, because he's still caught up, y'all,
just like last week in.

Speaker 4 (13:01):
A love try a is here it is.

Speaker 7 (13:04):
You thought that everything was all good, that now you
got the slave by the name of Hey God.

Speaker 4 (13:10):
She's got a baby.

Speaker 7 (13:12):
And now not only does she have a baby, but
Sarah has a baby.

Speaker 1 (13:16):
You got two.

Speaker 4 (13:17):
Brumas babies sitting in in the same house.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
Y'all ain't gonna preak with me.

Speaker 7 (13:21):
And Abraham finds himself caught up in some baby Mama dramma.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
But wants to text some phone.

Speaker 7 (13:28):
Right before you're very high, God had said that one
of these boys would be the promise child. But the
other boy he was gonna be blessed, but he wasn't
gonna be the promise child.

Speaker 4 (13:40):
He was gonna be the problem child. You're gonna mind if.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
I put it to you like that. So here it is,
Can I give in?

Speaker 7 (13:46):
Can I give you the record? The record is this
that Abraham is living in the house when two women,
one woman that he had a baby by because his
wife told him to the other woman. He has a
baby by because God said you were And so now
he's living in the midst of a problem and a
problems at the same time.

Speaker 4 (14:05):
Y'all ain't gonna hear the day.

Speaker 7 (14:07):
What do you do when there's a problem that keeps
you from seeing the.

Speaker 1 (14:12):
Problems of God.

Speaker 7 (14:13):
Abraham is in the midst of a problem and a promise.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
But there are some of us in the midst of a.

Speaker 7 (14:19):
Problem and a promise right now, because God keeps his
word and he's made to a promise.

Speaker 4 (14:26):
But you're wrestling with the problems of life and can't
feel the promise of God.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
Maybe that ain't you? Let me talk to somebody over here.

Speaker 7 (14:34):
You know you should be better off than you are,
but it seems like the more that you stepped forward.
The more you're poured back. God promise that he was
gonna bless you. But you're wondering if God still hears you.
All right, I ain't talking to y'all no more. Let
me talk to somebody over here. You may understand what
God said in his word where he promised to keep

(14:55):
you in perfect peace. But it seemed like the problems
and the paper just cause can a'll send in your
life to one You're wondering what that piece is to
God promise perfect peace, but there's problems in the midst.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
Of you waiting on your problem.

Speaker 7 (15:10):
Let me help somebody to understand that even though there
is a problem, God still keeping problem somebody and say, neighbor,
ain't going in there. You might have some problems, but
trusting the promise, says of God, because we are bringing the.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
Two days.

Speaker 7 (15:30):
Who it is because a problem with child had a promise,
I'll say, y'all can relate to that.

Speaker 4 (15:35):
All your children ain't good.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
You got some good children. You got some problem too.
Some kids you ain't.

Speaker 4 (15:49):
Got to pray for every day.

Speaker 7 (15:51):
Some of them you got to get all your knees
and pray for her three times a day. You don't
know where to pick up.

Speaker 4 (15:57):
Little bad happens. You'll know where that up back.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
But now do you understand what it is having a
problem child and a promised child?

Speaker 7 (16:06):
Yeah, yeah, help me understand something. There wasn't is man's fault, right,
he didn't have to be more. It wasn't Haygard's fault.
She was fulfilling her duties.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
But Sarah tried to help God out here it is.

Speaker 4 (16:19):
Here, it is watch this this one.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
I like this one of like you can't make this up.

Speaker 4 (16:23):
In chapter sixteen, she runs out.

Speaker 7 (16:28):
In chapter twenty one, she put out right, watch this
watch this chapter sixteen, she runs out and she has
to go back. But in chapter number twenty one, run
what happened? The Bible says, if you read your Bible,
you understand I'm not gonna read it all to you,
but I'm gonna bring you up to day that when
Isaac was weaned, right, there was a ceremony that took.

Speaker 4 (16:49):
Place, and the Isaac was wean.

Speaker 7 (16:50):
Say while Isaac was wean The moral of the story
is big brother. I started to pick on look bro
out in here, big brother. But that's just what big
brothers do. Big brothers pick on little brothers and little sister.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
That's why we're the big brother. What's this?

Speaker 8 (17:09):
What's this?

Speaker 7 (17:10):
Big brother begins to pick on little brother. But oh,
here comes Mama Barry in the presence of saying she
calls to Apraham and said, look here, honey, this a
little slave for me and her little no good slave
son not gonna grow up in this house and tease
my son.

Speaker 4 (17:29):
And I refuse for this slave to be an heir
to the trunk.

Speaker 7 (17:35):
You need to tell Hegard to get her stuck, get
this little slave boy, and get this step.

Speaker 4 (17:44):
She went to Apraham and watched it.

Speaker 7 (17:46):
Abraham could have been bold and both dasis like some
men try.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
To be, and put his foot down.

Speaker 7 (17:51):
Sarah, you ain't gonna tell me what to do. You
the reason that we got this problem. You're not gonna
tell me to send her away, because after all that's say, boy,
you're still my son. What what Abraham did? Abraham began
to talk to the Lord. And when Abraham talked to
the Lord, what's what the Lord says? The Lord says

(18:12):
to Abraham, do what's to receive?

Speaker 4 (18:16):
Ain my mind.

Speaker 7 (18:17):
I know that Abraham may have been hurt by the
fact that he's got to put out his son and
Hagar because Abraham really.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
Loved his son.

Speaker 7 (18:26):
It was the son that was given to him that
he was when he was old, not old as Isaac.

Speaker 4 (18:33):
But it was his first born son.

Speaker 7 (18:36):
Y'all still with me, bebby pauls rewind to play it
for you again.

Speaker 2 (18:40):
This problem child's the first born son.

Speaker 4 (18:45):
Y'all know what Abraham does?

Speaker 3 (18:48):
Good?

Speaker 7 (18:48):
Put it in terms that only a woman trying to
raise a child.

Speaker 4 (18:51):
By herself can understand.

Speaker 7 (18:53):
Apraham gives her some child support.

Speaker 4 (18:59):
The checks. Can I say it to you? Look what
he says.

Speaker 7 (19:04):
The Bible says that that that that Abraham throws out
the bond woman, y'all want to see the child support.
He gives her a bottle of water and some bread
and sends her, oh the way. But my brother and

(19:25):
the sisters, I stop trying to tell your child support
checks just they ain't gonna meet all.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
The knees of the child.

Speaker 4 (19:31):
That after a while, that's gonna run out. Oh, I'm
gonna get to that end of the moment.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
And and when they are put out.

Speaker 7 (19:38):
The house, the Bible says that Abraham rise up early.

Speaker 4 (19:42):
Puts it on the shoulder the child and sends her away.

Speaker 7 (19:45):
She the parts, and she's wondering again in a wilderness.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
Right the water told the child support runs out.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
The water was spitch, all right. It's what she does
is she takes this male and.

Speaker 7 (20:04):
Puts him under the shrugs. I read a lot of
Bible commentarys, but none of them told that told me
what I'm getting ready to tell you.

Speaker 4 (20:15):
So I want you to patrol's attention. I'm not trying
to be controversial and.

Speaker 2 (20:18):
Show you how smart I am. But what I am
trying to show you is what the word of God
is telling us.

Speaker 1 (20:23):
What the word of God.

Speaker 7 (20:24):
This Texas Taylor to teach you is that they just
haven't been put out.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
That while you.

Speaker 7 (20:30):
See him lying, he's also dying. If you look closely,
he is cast under the shrugs. Can I help you
to see something. This wasn't a baby that she laid
under the shrug. He was capable of walking for himself.
As a matter of fact, if you want to understand Bible,
you would understand that when Abraham received the message, he

(20:52):
was eighty six.

Speaker 1 (20:53):
This smell was born shortly.

Speaker 7 (20:55):
After that, and then it's a hundred and Isaac is born.
This is a teenage boy came walking on his own,
So why is it that his mother has to take
him and lay him under the shrug?

Speaker 1 (21:10):
Can I tell you all what I see him.

Speaker 4 (21:12):
He's dying of dehydration.

Speaker 7 (21:17):
That's why the Bible says the water is now gone.

Speaker 4 (21:21):
Okay, I'm gonna prove it to you again. And then
at the end of the account, she lifts him up
to God. He makes him a break mason.

Speaker 3 (21:28):
And guess what she.

Speaker 7 (21:29):
Does with the water that God supplies in the wilderness.

Speaker 1 (21:33):
She gives him some water, all right.

Speaker 7 (21:37):
So while you see him lying under the shrug, the
srub is blocking the sun that is shining on him.

Speaker 1 (21:43):
While he is there, lying and dying, she did.

Speaker 7 (21:49):
What any good mother would do. She goes and she says,
down over gives him a good way. Or watch this,
here's other proof. She's a goatsot away. For she said,
let let me not see the depth.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
Y'all can read the Bible.

Speaker 7 (22:04):
Cachre this right, third verse number sixteen, let me not
see the depth of the town. She sits over against
him and lifts up her voice and starts crying.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
Nothing like a mother's love for her son.

Speaker 4 (22:21):
She's sitting there and she's crying. But watch this. Verse
seventeen is where the action begins to take place.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
And God hear y'all don't know when the south And God,
I'm gonna break this. And God, okay.

Speaker 4 (22:48):
Y'all aren't excited, But let me tell you why I'm excited.

Speaker 1 (22:52):
Here it is. I told you this boy wasn't the
problem chill town.

Speaker 4 (22:56):
He was the problem town.

Speaker 7 (22:58):
And the mother he was not Sarah, the wife of Abraham,
of the promise of many nations.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
She is, Hey, God, the slave, this is the son
of the slave. But when the slave pray, the God
will say it.

blessings because the father that blessings and favor with God.
And because favor rests on the father, Holly, lookah rested
on the son.

It is beloved that the land is blessed because of
God's promise, because of his connection with Abraham. And you
know what, Watch this, y'all. God just gave me this.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
I wanna don't say it in one part of what
I plan don't say.

Speaker 7 (30:14):
But you know, watch some of us say't blessed, You
ain't blessed because you got a bad to mix.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
Can can't prove it to you.

Speaker 7 (30:25):
And see, I wasn't even gonna say this, and it
just happened earlier today. God just dropped this in and
I'm gonna say, which is something happened to me this morning.
Sister Doctors and I we were on our lady church
and I got hunted. I tried to not eat before
I preached, because normally I don't, but for some reason
this morning I just needed something to eat.

to place my order, she says, I can't hear you.

Speaker 4 (31:23):
Why could she not hear me?

Speaker 7 (31:25):
Because it was a bad connection because there was some
outside noise interference.

Speaker 1 (31:33):
With her here in me. The message is God hears me.

Speaker 7 (31:39):
But you know why some of y'all feel the way
that you feel because there's too much outside interference when

And God heard the voice of the lad.

Speaker 7 (32:30):
Y'all staid with me, Yeah, the Angel of God call
to Haygard.

Speaker 1 (32:38):
What's this, y'all? No, miss this. God didn't come to
the wilderness.

Speaker 7 (32:45):
He didn't speak to her from the wilderness. God called
to Hagard culture out of killing.

Speaker 1 (32:59):
All right.

Speaker 7 (33:05):
He calls to her from heaven, Yes, Lord, and saying,
I heard the boys of the land that's under the
shrub in the wilder. I got chills just thinking about it.

Speaker 1 (33:26):
God called out.

Speaker 7 (33:28):
Of heaven to Hayguard in the wilderness because he heard
the voice of.

Speaker 4 (33:34):
A weak land underneath the shrub.

Speaker 7 (33:39):
I don't know how good your ears are, but that
means that the Lord's gotta ever listening here. He can
hear you wherever you are. And then it goes on through.

Speaker 4 (33:54):
Yes, he says girl's wrong with you? Yes he did?

Speaker 1 (34:02):
What hell if you?

Speaker 4 (34:06):
Hey God?

Speaker 7 (34:09):
Because even though God wasn't hard of here, and hey,
God was, well, okay, you.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
Don't believe me.

Speaker 7 (34:18):
Go back.

Speaker 4 (34:18):
In chapter number sixed, God already.

Speaker 7 (34:21):
Told her you go back and you submit yourself to
say Rod, because.

Speaker 4 (34:25):
That boy that you carry, I'm gonna bless him too.

Speaker 7 (34:28):
And if God is said that, I'm gonna bless him,
God ain't gonna kill him. God is not gonna allow
him to diet because if there are gonna be many nass,
he's got.

Speaker 4 (34:39):
To grow up and have some children.

Speaker 1 (34:42):
Are you still? Do you see how if you trust
the promises of God.

Speaker 4 (34:46):
You a bad man.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
You're a bad woman because you understand.

Speaker 7 (34:50):
I'm not gonna die because God hasn't fulfilled destiny.

Speaker 4 (34:54):
That he placed in my life.

Speaker 7 (34:56):
I'm not gonna be brocrusted, that disgusting because God made
apartment and ain't happen yet manifest in my life.

Speaker 4 (35:04):
I'm not gonna lose my mind.

Speaker 7 (35:06):
I'm not gonna be out of my mind because God
made me a problem.

Speaker 3 (35:12):
Russ.

Speaker 7 (35:14):
She says, I heard the boys of the lad Oh
here's the good news. This baby want to saut to
where he is. Let me talk to all these religious
fools that think you can only talk to God in the.

Speaker 1 (35:32):
Church, that you gotta have a certain place where.

Speaker 7 (35:36):
You can call on the lords, or you can only
call on him if you know how to use certain words.
Oh God, the Father of Abraham, Isaac Jacob.

Speaker 4 (35:45):
They on me and rupe.

Speaker 1 (35:46):
You ain't got to do all of that.

Speaker 4 (35:48):
You ain't even gotta be in a tert if you
just simply say Lord, helper.

Speaker 7 (35:53):
He knows exactly where you are in, any place where
you get in trouble, any place where the problem, any
place you can be in, as a matter of fact,
the worst place to be in if the best place
to pray. Here, y'all ain't gonna pray with me, Let
me call those some witnesses. God heard Chola when he

(36:15):
was in the penny of a wire, come here, somebody in.
He prayed to God, and God calls the will to spit.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
Him out for y'all praying with me here, I.

Speaker 4 (36:25):
Heard, said, rack me second the end to go. Prayed
before they went into.

Speaker 7 (36:29):
The fiery furners. And while they were in the furnace,
God had heard their prayers and showed up in the
fiery furnose. Y'all ain't gonna pray with me, all in
sight in a room and tale Michael says.

Speaker 4 (36:43):
At midnight they prayed and same praises.

Speaker 7 (36:47):
God heard them. How do you know God hurt them
because God showed up? Can I tell you how he
showed up? Look at your neighbor and say, suddenly after
while God showed up, shoot the foundations up the print.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Because he goes where you are. Oh, bless my God.

Speaker 7 (37:12):
Look at the text he he says. He says that
because of the promise God, he knew where he was. Yeah,
where I said, God sees me. And the reason that
God sees me is because he's looking at me. God
was looking at this man. Can I go back to
last week for just a moment. Somebody don't understand what

(37:34):
it means when God is looking at you. When God
is looking at you, that means every step you see,
God is watching you. That repove you match, God is
watching you. Can I tell y'all, God is watching me
right now. And when God is watching you, y'all know
what he does. He orders your steps.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
Oh, y'all ain't gonna pray with me, and you ain't
gonna like what.

Speaker 7 (37:57):
I'm getting ready to tell you, but I don't care
about devil coming in my life. I don't care about
hats coming in my life. I don't care about instagats
coming in my life. You know why, because God is
looking at me, and you know what God has promised me.
Because the Lord that means that God is looking at me,

(38:22):
He's directing my stealth. So every word I call.

Speaker 1 (38:26):
God goes with me.

Speaker 7 (38:30):
Because God was looking at him.

Speaker 1 (38:35):
He knew worry, but he still with me.

Speaker 7 (38:39):
Okay, okay, okay, let me let me move on, let
me move on, let me get to the next night.

Speaker 4 (38:44):
The reason that God hears me is because of his provision.

Speaker 7 (38:50):
All right, all right, this might be a bad example,
but this might help some of y'all understand it.

Speaker 6 (38:55):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 1 (38:57):
I was sometimes a problem child.

Speaker 3 (38:59):
I know it's hard.

Speaker 2 (39:03):
I was sometimes a problem child when I was coming up,
and I would get in trouble.

Speaker 4 (39:12):
I know it's hard to believe.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
I threw a rock and bust our grandma under.

Speaker 7 (39:20):
One day, and when they said they were gonna whoop me,
I said, you.

Speaker 1 (39:26):
Can't whoop what you can't catch.

Speaker 7 (39:31):
And I took out running down the street. Posted up
by the street light. I posted up by the street
light because I don't know what the street light symbolized.
When you saw that street light came on, Grandma and
them would go to that screen. Bok, call your whole
name the mother Patrick. Time for you to come down

(39:54):
is getting dark. The street light came on. Now watch this,
Watch this number times that they didn't of getting the whooping.

Speaker 2 (40:02):
God just say it like that, getting the whooping. I'm
talking about that Mama, them house, Mama, them and and
grandmom and them, Yeah and them.

Speaker 1 (40:07):
That's y'all.

Speaker 7 (40:08):
You know, y'all went to Mama and them and grandma
and them, and y'all y'all go, I'm talking about it.
And that's so so I'm I'm I'm getting the whooping.
And a lot of times I would get a whipping
because I was not obeying right right, And so sometimes.

Speaker 4 (40:24):
You know when you would get whippings.

Speaker 1 (40:26):
And they have to switching the bag that they would
be whipping you.

Speaker 7 (40:31):
And they said, you obviously didn't hear what I say.
I heard you, No, you didn't hear me, and they
still whooping you.

Speaker 1 (40:42):
You didn't hear what I said.

Speaker 7 (40:44):
And the reason you didn't hear what I said because
you didn't do what I say.

Speaker 1 (40:50):
Right.

Speaker 7 (40:53):
So, when someone hears the way that you know that
they heard.

Speaker 1 (40:58):
You is that they respond.

Speaker 4 (41:02):
What's this?

Speaker 1 (41:03):
God's respond is God's provision. That's what God does.

Speaker 2 (41:10):
He said, get up, and when you get up, lift
up the lady.

Speaker 4 (41:18):
Hold him in your head.

Speaker 7 (41:21):
You forgot what I told you, For I will in
case you missed it the first time, I'm.

Speaker 4 (41:27):
Gonna tell it to you again.

Speaker 7 (41:28):
For I will.

Speaker 1 (41:29):
Let me give you.

Speaker 7 (41:29):
Another problem, since the other one seems to have gone
through your ears.

Speaker 4 (41:32):
I will make him a great nation.

Speaker 8 (41:36):
What's this all?

Speaker 1 (41:37):
What's this?

Speaker 4 (41:37):
What's this?

Speaker 1 (41:38):
What's this?

Speaker 7 (41:39):
And God opened her eyes and she saw a well
of why.

Speaker 1 (41:49):
I told you I told him to.

Speaker 2 (41:50):
The reason that I know that God hears me is
because God provides for me.

Speaker 7 (41:54):
But let me show the provision right here. This is
gonna mess you up. Abraham was a great men, all right,
But all he could give them was a bottle of water,
you know seeing it. Abraham wasn't a father.

Speaker 4 (42:12):
Of many nason, but all he could.

Speaker 1 (42:14):
Give them was a bottle of water. But once it's
over time the water in the bottle ran out.

Speaker 7 (42:24):
But once he put our trust in God, when he
understood the protheros of God.

Speaker 1 (42:29):
God said, I'm gonna take what man gave you that
ran out.

Speaker 7 (42:35):
I'm gonna give you something that'll never run out. Hey, God,
look over that there's a whale. Take that same empty
boll that Abraham gave you what.

Speaker 1 (42:47):
The water ran out.

Speaker 7 (42:49):
Because I'm God and the water in try places. Take
that same empty water.

Speaker 1 (42:55):
Spit it up with water. You got your.

Speaker 4 (42:57):
Neighbor, and say, neighbor, I'm trusting.

Speaker 7 (43:00):
Your resource, and know that God gets your own sauce.
Do I have me a witness? That's your water? Bottle
ran down, but God provided away in the midst of
your driss takers. The water ran out, but God said,

(43:24):
I don't need Dan's water. Just open your eyes. There's
a well of walk. The Bible says, I might not
get to my third pace. She went and filled the
bottle with water and gave some to ISMI I'm trying

(43:45):
to show you something.

Speaker 1 (43:46):
That mother here fills the bottle that was given to
her for profit. And now watch what he does. He
gives it to her lad to drink. The problem of time.

Speaker 4 (44:01):
Saved his mother, but she gave him a three.

Speaker 1 (44:07):
H y'all ain't gonna pray with me. I'm getting ready
to clothes now.

Speaker 4 (44:12):
I'm not gonna get to the third point. But if
I were to get to the third.

Speaker 7 (44:16):
Point, it would be that God here's me because of
his power.

Speaker 3 (44:23):
But I gotta have you home.

Speaker 7 (44:24):
Now because I feel something in my spirits. I gotta
tell you something I saw in the midst of his text.
Can I go back and put something for you? That
there was a man by the name of Abraham.

Speaker 4 (44:41):
He was the father, and Ismail was the son.

Speaker 7 (44:45):
He wasn't the first born son of a man by
the name of Abraham. But this son, Ismail, was the
reason that his mother was alive. Because God hurt the
prayers of his son. And when God heard the press
of the.

Speaker 4 (45:05):
Son of promise of her, he saved the mother.

Speaker 1 (45:08):
Can I hurry home to a cult?

Speaker 4 (45:11):
Y'all thought that I was talking about Ismail? But can
I sew.

Speaker 7 (45:16):
Y'all something of his mail left home? He hadsome water
and brand on his shoulder. Are you still with me?
I heard the record Sailor he was dying in the wilderness.

Speaker 1 (45:33):
His brother was right there, not wanting to see.

Speaker 7 (45:36):
If she began to cry, she took his mail, put
him under the shroud and left him down to die.

Speaker 1 (45:45):
But I heard, I heard the.

Speaker 7 (45:49):
Lord say, lift up its mail because I'm God bless him. Now,
can I hurry home to console him? Begotten son? His
name is Jesus. What's what I'm doing now?

Speaker 3 (46:07):
They put a.

Speaker 7 (46:08):
Cross on his shoulder, slid up the heel called cavalry.

Speaker 4 (46:15):
They stretched him hide.

Speaker 1 (46:17):
They hunk him wider.

Speaker 7 (46:19):
I heard he wouldn't place under the tree, but he
would place on the tree.

Speaker 4 (46:25):
But they made a mistake. They lifted him up. And
when they lifted him up, he.

Speaker 1 (46:32):
Forget to draw on. Men got to him. I heard,
I heard she's lover.

Speaker 4 (46:42):
Was that the cross? She said, that's my son.

Speaker 7 (46:46):
But I heard I heard him jes As saying, so
that the love to say?

Speaker 1 (46:53):
What he said? Woman up? She halt your sona and sona?
She halto mother. He had to die.

Speaker 7 (47:02):
But it was only because he prayed up to the
father that made him a promise that if you go down,
I'll be with you.

Speaker 4 (47:14):
But what's what happened up? He died while his mother
was at the cross.

Speaker 1 (47:20):
He died, didn't he die?

Speaker 7 (47:23):
But Sunday money he got up. He lifted up his
hands and said.

Speaker 1 (47:31):
I got all power, all power.

Speaker 4 (47:34):
Somebody said all power.

Speaker 7 (47:36):
Shouldn't power, shaving power, delivering power, sheep in power.

Speaker 1 (47:42):
I've got all power in my hand. And I don't
know how.

Speaker 7 (47:47):
You feel, but I'm so glad. I'm so glad that
he hears me.

Speaker 4 (47:53):
Couldn't caught him. I hear because he's.

Speaker 1 (47:56):
Got all power.

Speaker 4 (47:57):
Can I bring it to a clothes He's a good thing.

Speaker 7 (48:01):
I also read in the close of the Texas First
Number twe can I tell you what it said? And
God was with the lad, y'all won't know in the
South he want the proper child.

Speaker 1 (48:17):
