promise that he has for you trust him today without faith it is 11:33 impossible to please god but with faith you will be pleasing to him with faith he can do marvels he can do miracles in your life let it not be said about any one of us that he couldn't do the miracle that he wanted to do in our midst or in our 11:45 marriage or in our home because of our unbelief lord jesus i pray that you will fill our hearts with faith today you said that faith would come when we hear your voice so we want to listen to your voice we tune our our our ears away from the things of 12:01 this world away from the the noises of this world and the politics of this world and the interests and the entertainment of this world we tune our ears the years of our spirit more to hear your voice so that we can receive faith we've been 12:15 feeding on things other than the living water that you want to give us lord and we want that having thirsted in the past for things of this world now lord we thirst for you and you said that if we drink of that water we won't thirst for the 12:27 things of this world anymore come lord and give us that let that that water become a well inside of us you said that from our innermost beings from our bellies would flow rivers of living water lord jesus and there would 12:39 be a blessing around everyone whom we meet that they would taste of the aroma of christ in us and long for it themselves lord we long for that lord jesus that when we interact with people in the world when we interact with our spouses and 12:51 our children and our relatives and each other in the church that they see and they taste of that water that's flowing out of us we long for it lord and if that's that's not true or any one of us lord we lift our cups up to you 13:03 today we lift our hands up to you today we lift our eyes to you from whence shall our help come our help comes from you lord you're the giver of life you're the giver of the holy spirit you promised that you would pour it out 13:14 lord jesus so do that for us you know we need it lord and so we cry to you for it thank you you will pour your holy spirit upon us you brought us this far lord we look back here we are at the end of 2020 and no matter how long we've lived on 13:28 this earth we can all testify you've brought us safely this far through many dangers toils and snares we've already come but with this we shall confess today that by grace we shall safely be led home that's our destination lord 13:43 you your presence to dwell with you free from all sins freed from even the presence of sin lord we look forward to that day to that resurrected body you will give us and meanwhile lord while we're here on this earth we commit our earthly needs to you i 13:56 pray for any who are defeated by sin discouraged in any way the devil is wreaking havoc in some marriage or some individual's life in some home in some relationship we bind that work in the name of jesus thank you lord that you've given the 14:09 church authority on this earth to bind knowing that it would be bound in the heavenlies so lord jesus set free those that need to be set free from any addictions any bad habits any sin we pray for our earthly needs as well 14:21 lord for those that need healing some who are sick in our midst perhaps touch them lord jesus even now in the name of jesus lay your hands on them lord and heal them by the restoring power that's that only you have you are the giver of life 14:35 you're the healer thank you lord that you will do it you have the same power seated there in the heavenlies as you did when you were here on this earth and thank you that your holy spirit is in us and in your church lord jesus 14:46 to bring that healing where we need it where it is your will we trust you for it lord and for our earthly needs you know lord what it's like to be here and to have to provide have to earn a living you know what it's like lord jesus you 14:59 were tempted in all points as we are and yet you never sinned and you never once even lived a second with anxiety or worry you leaned on your father and you showed us that way that we too can live so lord we commit our earthly needs to you provide for our 15:14 needs lord jesus we don't know what tomorrow is going to look like or if you'll even have tomorrow let alone next year or ten years from now but you do lord we trust you for the care of our children we trust you for the care of our future 15:26 lord jesus it's in your hands and those are the best hands to leave and thank you we have heard our prayer today in jesus name amen this may be a new song some of you 15:50 listen to the words sit with us if you know [Music] it's up to me to decide 16:15 but how can i expect to win if i'd ever tried i just can't give up 16:49 he's brought me this far to lead me let's sing that first verse again there will be mountain sequences up to me to decide how can i 17:19 expect to win if i never tried i just can't give nobody told me 17:51 [Music] never said there would be trials he never said i would fall never said that everything would go the way i wanted to go 18:11 when my back is against the wall and i feel the hope is god i'll just lift my head up to the sky and say help me to be strong from 18:44 nobody told me the road would be easy and i don't believe he's brought me this far to leave me i know you didn't bring me 19:00 out here to leave me lonely even when i can't see clearly i know that you are with me so i just can't give up 19:33 [Music] he's brought me this far to me he's brought me this far to leave me 20:09 and i don't believe he's brought me this far to me oh trust him today the longer i serve him the sweeter he grows [Music] that's the truth of walking with jesus 20:26 and it doesn't always feel that way don't trust your feelings to your friend believe his word he is the sweeter than honey even honey in the honeycombs oh taste and see the lord is good since i my started he controls 20:51 since i gave my heart to jesus the longer i serve him goes the longer i serve him 21:07 the sweeter he grows is 21:30 [Music] yes every day my way 21:48 gets brighter the longer i serve him the sweeter he goes i serve him the sweeter he grows the more that i love him more love he 22:07 bestows each day heart overflows the longer i serve the sweeter he grows the longer i serve him 22:24 the sweeter he grows the more that i love him more love he disclosed each day's like heaven my heart overflows the the sweeter he grew 22:59 you know one of the wonderful examples we read in the word of god the new testament is mary you know every time you read about mary she you sitting on the feet of jesus oh there was a meal to cook and oh there was place to set 23:12 there was lots of things to do but you'd always find mary sitting at the feet of jesus saying lord what would you have me do the reason there's such a lack of faith in our lives i believe if there is such a lack there's a lack 23:26 of faith in the world it's because we're not listening to the voice of jesus romans 10 17 says faith comes by hearing the word of christ listen to the voice of jesus sit at his feet today develop the habit of sitting at his feet 23:40 throughout your day and then others will be able to tell the aroma of jesus will rub off on you will be within you others will know you've been with jesus you can't fake this this is real come and sit at his feet 23:58 listen to him he wants to speak to you he doesn't want to hear he doesn't want you to hear just another sermon or hear another verse from the bible he wants you to hear his voice living relevant to your need today see when jesus spoke here on this earth 24:14 it was relevant to whatever the disciples were facing at that moment it wasn't just theory he wants to be relevant a word a prophetic word for you today that's yours reach out tune your ear and you will hear it [Music] 24:45 so near so praised [Music] 25:11 for his love so [Music] [Music] the feet of [Music] 25:41 sins jesus songs bless me o my savior 26:24 bless me as i see mind of jesus 27:08 [Music] of righteousness [Music] 27:26 oh he will do it ask him in faith [Music] jesus 27:42 [Music] 27:47 do it lord we trust you you
