Your word keeps us when we just had enough your word keeps us farther when we feel like frying our toys out the pram, Lord, what a great theological way to express that. Father, we pray right now, Lord, that the hand of the Lord will be honest, that you will just strengthen us in our being our hearts and minds. But today, Lord, let it be a good day. Let it be a good day we pray for those that homeschooling Lord that have got their children off today as well that are catching up on their work.

We pray for the key workers that will strengthen them and Lord, we we just asked you though that the love of God will be over as your love will abound. Your love will abound loads of fatherly Thank You, Lord, as we as we read the Scripture, Lord, we come from one Corinthians chapter 13. And I'm going to read from verse four, just for a couple of verses there. It says love is patient, love is kind it does not envy it does not boast. It is not proud, it is does does not honor others. It is not self seeking, it is not easily angered. It keeps no records of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres, verse eight of 100 chapter 13 Love never fails. Father, we thank you that love never fails, never fails us. The word never fails us and we pray for strength. And this morning, Lord, we pray for everyone watching and listening, that the love of God will be on them that now the Holy Spirit will be over them today. So Father, just let the goodness of God just abound in our hearts that they come Holy Spirit, rest on us, Father, just rest on us today strengthen us, wherever we are across the globe, we thank you that the hand of the Lord is on us. Just open your eyes. Open your workspace today, Lord, father were wary and we're tired of a scene where we're exhausted emotionally emotionally drained. Draw us and Lord where we're wearing, where we feel quite gritty and not quite sure the day drawer a sense of Father, we thank you that the love of the Father. And and I just think we're in prayer this morning. I just just thinking of the protocol. I've been mentioned this over the last few weeks. I think of the protocol, I think of the protocol, the protocol, son, you know, he just wanted to disappear and have everything. I've all the blessing I've all our money, everything from his father, but his father's love, you know, when when that young man just disappeared and the father was always always looking out for the son. The father is always looking out for us. The Father's arms are always open. So whoever we are myself, us. The rest of my brothers and sisters watching this morning, my two brothers with me. If we feel that we're a bit like a protocol that we keep running, running, and we got God's arms or father's arms are open, the father's arms are open, there is nothing too big for the father to cope with. is really really important to understand there is nothing too big on Earth. There is nothing that can stop the Father's love getting to us. There's the the father ran to the protocol was he came out of the pictures he was smelling have absolutely everything upon him. He did not shower he did not clean himself down. He just went to his father and his father see him from a long way often and the father embrace the sauce. That's so so so important this morning, that the Father embraces each and every one of us we're in trouble. So when we're in our mess when we're in the doubt mode when we're in stable mode when we're not thinking right when we're acting wrongly the father's arms are open. So Lord, I pray that you will take me and you'll draw me more into the father's arms. I pray that you will draw Donnie more into things that you will draw Andy and more into the father's arms. Lord, I pray for everybody listening through the podcast through social media. platforms that you will draw them the listeners that you will draw them in to the father's arms that will show the love of the Father because, Lord, Lord, this this nation feels very love less than a moment, Lord, it feels hopeless at the moment, Lord, it feels very down it feels very shallow. So little we need the love the Father, Lord, I pray for the heavy blanket that is upon this nation. The heaviness the weight the fear, Lord, we thank you that that light is breaking through, Lord that darkness cannot comprehend darkness cannot stand the light. So we thank you that Christ is the WAY the TRUTH and the LIFE no one comes to the Father except for him. But Lord, we need the Father's love. We need the Father's love this morning to spare the living full freshly Delilah for the fresh on us today for her father competition. awaken our hearts, Lord. awaken our hearts today, Lord. Wonderful God, we just resting Eunice de la comme la jolla. lavon. Pour your love interest today, Lord. Thank you, Jesus. Holy Spirit.
Donny Stockburn:Yeah, can I just read to you something that came to me in the week either really awful week as often as one I've ever suffered in my life. And God given this word. just blew it all away. I share it with you. It stay in prayer and just listen to these words. I wrote some of them down but it is concerned Psalm 121. If you got your Bibles that you can follow it's all this churchy things. I was sitting, praying and all these churchy things like candles and bills and stuff like that. I don't mean the thing, when you need is great. When your travels and neither do the mountains. You know, I used to love the sunset, and beautiful scenes and things like that, and it can kind of a garden has come to me and none of that means anything. When all the troubles are there, all that matters is is there Almighty God that loves me, and will help me who is able, who can protect me who can and will overcome all the dreads and troubles that stand before me. Someone who holds me dear, someone who really loves me, someone who will stay with me, someone who preserved me, not just my body, but my soul as well. The inside bits. That's where the pain and the fears and the battles all full. Sam we will keep them from evil. Someone will keep me from evil. Oh, that was primarily I thought I might slip my foot in all this pressure and travel I might fall. I want someone who can keep me from evil. Yes, and my solemn when I grow weak, not just the dialogue, but forever and ever and ever. I could I could say that I need this forever and ever and ever. And as I was I was thinking if suddenly the psalm 121 coming to me, it's amazing. And it says, I will lift up my eyes to the hills. From whence does my help come? My help comes from the Lord. Come on who made heaven and earth? He will not allow your foot to be moved. He keeps you will not slumber. Behold, he who keeps Israel shall not slumber either. The Lord is your keeper. Oh Lord, I love that word. Yes, the Lord is your shade at your right hand. The sun will not strike you by day, nor the moon by night, sign that little sign I will look after you physically your body or look after everything. And I won't sleep or slumber. Just what I wanted to hear Lord and the Lord shall preserve you from all evil Lord, that was like, that was the bullseye. He shall preserve your soul. The Lord shall preserve you're going out and you're coming in from this time forth. Furthermore, Lord, this is not a prayer. This is a love letter from you, to me, to all those Lord who have locked up in battles, or those who are fearful of even their foot slipping Lord in their fight slipping away, Lord, in his troubled times, Father God, it seems that we say it before north south east west, it seems everywhere we try. It's traveled on our this picture of me in a row in boats going out in the ocean towards a tsunami wave I thought, What chance do I stand every chance in a world when Christ is in the boat. Nothing can overcome God. This is the God who made all those beautiful things. This is a God who has promised us in this world, that he will look after us that our foot will not slip. He will get us through those days when temptation is strong, and we awake. He knows all about the inside of us. That's what I love. He knows where the battles are really full. That's where God is. That's where God's at work in our lives. Took faith in him know this precious words. It's precious word I pray now, Lord, you will download it in spirit and soul of everyone in this life and all the listeners found a god downloaded in them. This truth, the truth, this word that can never be broken Lord, this is this is a father who loves us. This is a Father who sent His Son to die for us. The promises are flawed, that our foot will never slip that come up may no matter what battles no matter what troubles, we will make it he says there forever. That's the word I love, Lord. There's no end to it. He will never leave us. He will love us. Always, always is love. Low music. I'll try to explain that word. Why do you love me so much? I can't explain it. I don't really know why. It's not there. But I have faith, Lord, it's true. I believe you do Love me that much. Now, Lord, that You You just won't give me up. No matter what happens, Lord, you say all before me. You knew it before I was saved. Lord, you saw it before I was saved, or travels and all the witnesses I have in the Lord, you open them all up. And you went through that cross justice I'm saved my lord alongside Lord, I pray that these truths, they foundational truth, your word, Lord can never be broken. Never be broken Lord. And you said hold fast to it. Lord, I pray that we will hold fast to these truths. This is a love law, from our father, to the sons to the children, which is thank you and praise You for Lord in Jesus name. Amen. Amen. Oh, man,

Pray that you will grieve across this nation, that you will burn everything away that is satanic and oppressive. And Lord that we will know that the steps of a good person are ordered by the Lord. And Father if we are in a valley experience, we thank you you're with us. Lord, if we're at the base of the mountain, we think that you're with us. If we're midway on the mountain, you're with us, Lord, if we're at the pinnacle, we're at the top of the mountain. Lord, we thank you that you are with us. But Lord, I pray for all those that are praying for rain, and low What I mean by that, Lord, what I mean by that all those are the prime for the miracle that they're looking into the sky into space into an area and they cannot see a cloud. And Lord, I pray for all those that are hanging around those in America, telling them that they there is nothing out there as the Prophet was on Mount Carmel was as he was praying for rain Lord, as he prayed for rain as he kept praying for rain, as that great prophet prayed and his servant that kept coming back to him is nothing there. There's nothing there. Lord, I pray that you will close that out is off to those that keep telling us there's nothing there. There's nothing happening. But Father, we will keep praying. We will keep praying and Lord that we will be soaking in our miracle because that's what happened to that great prophet as he prayed. The cloud became into formation and it rained and it rained and it was torrential. It was torrential, and the Prophet was running in his miracle. He was running in the rain he was running in America and load I pray that we will learn to run in America. Yeah, Lord, I pray that we will learn to run in the goodness of God. I pray, Lord, that when we run we will not grow faint. Wari, we will not be tired. But look, we will not be ahead of you. And we will not be lagging behind you. But Lord, I pray that we will learn the Lord to press in the Name of God, the Father, I pray for all those that are praying for a miracle. And they've got someone around them that are telling them telling them, there's no cloud in the sky. There's no rain coming. It's too hot. It ain't gonna happen. Lord, I thank you for the persistent way. The Prophet kept praying. He kept praying. He kept praying. The Bible says he prayed earnestly, he pressed But James makes it very clear as he spoke about that Prophet. He said, Elijah was a prophet, my man just like us, a human being. So Lord, you tell us that there is power in prayer, being persistent, never given up to Lord, there might not be a cloud in the sky at the moment, it might be hot, but Lord, we are praying for that cloud to come into formation. We are praying for that miracle to come. We are praying for that healing. We are praying for that peace. We are praying for the guidance. We are praying for the miracle Lord, we are praying for rain, let it rain, let the Holy Spirit write over this nation. We need holy rain Lord, we need manna from heaven. We need the glory to fall we need the power of God to descend Spirit of the Living God, I pray that you will descend on each and every one of us. In the precious name of Jesus Christ brothers and sisters, we're getting ready for communion. So if anyone wants to get ready for that, please, please do so we got a couple of minutes we're going to take a bread and a wine and and he's going to lead us this morning to Donnie in prayer. And as we come before the Lord, but it's really important, I mentioned and reference the Prophet there this is this is really important in our lives, don't give up in prayer. Just because you can't see the cloud doesn't mean to say it's not going to come into being just because you've got someone around you telling you it's not happening. Don't give up. Don't give up. Don't give up in your prayer. Don't, don't give up. Don't give up. And what's important is the Prophet was at the top of the mountain on his own. He was in prayer on his own, he was praying. He believed he believed earnestly and he prayed honestly. And he was praying for that cloud formation. But then suddenly, his servant had to give in and said it rains coming. There's a cloud forming. In the hot sky, there's a cloud forming. There's a there's formation formation has to come simply because it says God's word cannot return void. It is set in when it is set out is put out to fly. When it lines up with the will of the Father and we pray the will of the Father, God's Word will not return void and empty, is set out and it will accomplish everything that it is set out to do. Keep praying for that cloud. And you know what I mean? When I'm talking about the cloud, that cloud was the miracle. And keep praying for the miracle, throne for peace. Keep praying for healing. Keep praying for guidance. Keep praying for love. Keep praying for peace, keep praying for obedience, keep praying, the addiction will break. Keep praying, keep praying and keep praying. Never give up that cloud is forming. someone around you is telling you to give up someone is telling you right now, the sky is blue for Forget it. It's not gonna happen. But be persistent.
