Grace Is All You Get (2 Corinthians 12:7-9) | Pastor Kelvin Shaw (Sermon)

New Life Now Podcast – Episode Description

In this episode of the New Life Now Podcast, Pastor Kelvin Shaw shares a powerful message titled “When Grace Is All You Get.”

Drawing from 2 Corinthians 12:7–9, this sermon explores a profound truth about the grace of God. Sometimes God does not remove the struggle, the burden, or the thorn we are praying about. Instead, He reveals that His grace is sufficient and that His strength is made perfect in our weakness.

Through the experience of the Apostle Paul, this message helps believers shift their perspective—from expecting God to remove every difficulty to learning to trust His sustaining power in the middle of it. We are reminded that mercy spares us, grace transforms us, and the same grace that saves us is the grace that sustains us.

If you have ever wondered why God allows certain struggles to remain, this message will encourage you to see that even in weakness, God’s grace is enough.

But when you have it, say I got it. Second Corinthians chapter number twelve verse seven to nine. And it reads out of the New King James Version. At least I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations. A thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me. Wow. God let Satan bring the message. That's another message in itself. Lest I be exalted above measure. Verse 8. Concerning this thing, he's talking about the thorn in the flesh. He said, I pleaded with the Lord three times. Someone say three times that it might depart from me. And here's the Lord's response. God said to me, My grace is sufficient for you. For my strength is made perfect in weakness. Therefore, most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities that the power of Christ may rest upon me. This scripture captured my heart about a week or so ago. And uh I don't know who it's for, but I know it's for somebody. Paul says, This thorn in the flesh which Satan sent to me, I asked God to remove it three times, and God didn't remove it, but God just said, My grace is sufficient for you. So here's what I think the Lord will help us with. It's when grace is all that we get. And I want to preach this. Look at your neighbor and say, Look, grace is all you get. Now say it with a little bit more umph. Someone just respond to say, That's it? That's it. Grace is all that you get. There's not gonna be anything else. It's just grace. If you believe that the Lord is gonna do something this morning, why don't you put your Bibles down or raise your hands one more time and just speak to the Lord on your behalf, just speak to Him in the way that you know how to speak to Him. Jesus, touch our hearts, touch our minds. God, Lord, move in a special way. God, I know, Lord, that your word is designed to go forth. You're trying to do something in somebody's life. Lord, remove any distraction, remove anything that's, Lord, like a blanket over this place. God, lift it up so that we can see you as you design. Jesus, I'm asking God to shake this house, but more importantly, shake our hearts, shake our minds so that we can be planted further in you. God, let us realize by the end of this service that your grace is sufficient, your grace is enough for us. God, if you don't do anything else, let your grace resonate in this house and let us take glory in the fact that you've given us your grace in Jesus' name. In Jesus' name. Amen. You may be seated in the presence of our King. Before we rush into the shout of this text, I think it's important for us to first understand where Paul sat in this text. When we meet Paul in 2 Corinthians chapter 12, he's not on a missionary journey like he has been in other books and chapters, and he's not planting churches as he has been doing all over in that time. He's not even standing in apostolic authority. He's not doing anything great. In fact, Paul is standing in a painful moment. Paul is struggling. Paul is not seeing visions anymore. If you read earlier in the chapter, he's talking about uh a man that's seen vision, that's been in the third heaven. In fact, he's actually talking about himself, but he's talking about it from the perspective that I've been with God in such heavenly places that I can't even utter what God has been sharing with me. And right after this moment, we see Paul uh in the middle of a storm, and he's in the middle of a desperate time. Paul is struggling. Paul has great pain upon him, and so much so that Paul begins to ask God to remove this pain and struggle from him. Now, all of the theologians and scholars, they'll try to tell us and try to figure out what the thorn of the flesh was. But the reality is, I don't think we're supposed to know what it is because we all end up with a thorn in the flesh. Meaning that we all have ailments, we all have things that we think God could take away, but sometimes God leaves us in our struggle. Sometimes God leaves us alone to fight with our trouble. And I know this is not a shouting word right now, but it is something to kind of shout about that God, and it's weird. I know it's weird, but God lets us experience trouble, a thorn in the flesh that guess what? He won't take away. And Paul is in this moment, we see him with all of the experiences that he has, with all of the great faith that he has. And you can't argue with me. Paul had probably more great faith than any of us in this room. And Paul, the one that has seen visions, has been gone through so many things, is now, the Bible says, pleading with God. And he's saying, For this thing I besought the Lord three times that it might depart from me. Three times, asking God, God, please help me, God, please take me out, God, please remove this thing from me, take this away from me. And this is the tension that we see in the text. That how is it that a man so anointed can also be so afflicted? How is it a man had someone that has been used by Scott so greatly still has a weakness that he's dealing with? How can a man that has seen heaven still struggle with something that God won't remove? Now, let me just let me get real a little bit. Is that okay? We have been taught a lot of times in our culture, in the church, even with a religious tone, that if we have enough faith, God does what we ask. Listen, I've preached it. That if we have enough faith, if we pray hard enough, God will remove the diagnosis. Or some of us we we know and we've been taught, and we've we said, if we fast long enough, the doors will open. If we sow enough, the pressure of what we're living breaks, and some of us even believe this. If I declare it louder, if I shout my way out, then the thorns disappear. Oftentimes we have been discipled to think that faith is measured by removal. But what do you do when you keep praying and God lets the thing that's bothering you stay? What do you do when you're praying for God to remove something or fix something or heal something and change something, but God is less interested in changing the atmosphere or changing the diagnosis and more interested in changing you? Okay, okay. What do we do when it doesn't leave? When the miracle doesn't happen, when it doesn't show up. If you're honest, I like me, you've prayed for things that didn't come through the way that you thought. Or maybe we start thinking, I'm not spiritual enough. Or I don't have enough faith. But here's what shock the room Paul had enough faith to raise the dead. Paul had enough faith to survive being stoned. Paul had enough faith to shake the prison doors open, but he didn't have his ailment removed. Pain didn't leave him. And the struggle of it is he asked God to remove it. And not just once, he asked God to remove it three times. Can I tell you this morning, his issue was not a lack of faith? Because sometimes the greatest demonstration of God's faith is not removal but letting us stand. Oh, I think I have to preach a little harder until somebody gets this. What if my faith is not tested by a miracle, but it's tested by my endurance? There's a few more people following me here. What if his demonstration of faith is not that the thing leaves, but that it stays? We want to shout, Pastor Lee, that the mountain needs to be moved. We want to shout, move this mountain! And when it moves, we have great faith. But there's another side to faith that says that God says, I'm not gonna remove the mountain, but I'm gonna give you enough strength to climb it. And that's the tension. Because sometimes faith doesn't evict the thorn, but sometimes faith gives us enough to sustain it. If you're honest, some of us even today are living in this place where we've prayed for the situation to change, but nothing happened. I'm calling somebody that's asking God to fix something, and and God's not fixing it the way that you think he's supposed to. All he's saying is, My grace is sufficient. So here's the question Will God's grace be enough? Because let me tell you, grace is all you get. Grace is all you get. Now, it's important for us, church, and I'm gonna teach a little bit here. So if you have a pen and a paper, or if you want to write, I'm gonna ask you to write a little bit here. There is, it is important for us to understand the difference between grace and mercy. Oftentimes we talk about grace and mercy, but we use them interchangeably or we use them almost as if they're the same word. But can I tell you, mercy and grace are not twins? They're business partners. They're not the same, but they work together. Write this down. Mercy is when God stops what should have happened. Can I say that again? Mercy is when God stops what should have happened. Lamentations chapter three and verse 22. It says, it is the mercies of God that we are not consumed. We are supposed to be consumed. Jeremiah is looking at a city that has been judged, broken, and burned because of sin. And yet, he says they're still there. That's mercy. Mercy is God withholding penalty that justice demands. Is this too slow for y'all? Okay. Mercy is what happens when we should be cut off. But God lets us live. But God holds back the sentence. Mercy, we're supposed to pay the full price, but we don't have enough. So mercy steps in and pays the price for us. We used to sing a song, He Paid a Debt. I could not pay. It was on the cross that He paid a debt for us. Can I just say we we can never get high and mighty that we we were so good that that's why God chose us? No, the reason why He chose us is because we were so bad. And when we couldn't pay for sin, He paid the price. Luke chapter 18, verse 13, we see that a publican didn't call asking for a blessing, but he cried out, get justice for me from my adversary. If you continue on in the story, one beats his chest and says, Have mercy to me, a sinner. Wasn't asking for an opportunity, wasn't asking for a ministry, wasn't asking for a path to showcase their talents, but just saying, God, have mercy upon me. Mercy says we don't deserve what we get. Can I go deeper with mercy? The scripture and the word often translate mercy from a Hebrew idea of compassion rooted in covenant love. Meaning God is not just feeling sorry for us, but it's God intervening for us so that judgment doesn't come upon us. Mercy is justice paused by compassion. Mercy is holiness, choosing not to destroy what sin deserved. Exodus chapter 34 and verse 6 says, When God reveals his own nature, the Lord, the Lord God, merciful, gracious, long-suffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, this scripture is revealing to us that God is mercy. Because he is mercy, he gives his mercy to us. Can I just stop for a second and say, is anybody thankful for the mercies of God? I don't know if you really understood what I asked. Is anybody truly thankful that when you should be down and out, that when you should be out of your right mind, not in your right mind, that when you should be suffering from struggles and pain, God's mercy blocks it. The Bible would just say his mercy is new. Every morning, every day I wake up, God's mercy walks in the room and says, I've given you another moment, I've given you another time. Don't ever get high in mind with our stuff because it's his mercy that protects us. But God is so good that he doesn't just stop at mercy. If he stopped at mercy, we'd only be spared, but we wouldn't be saved. And here's where many of us stop shouting. We stop shouting too soon when we think of mercy because mercy, mercy, if we think about it, mercy says you're forgiven, but mercy alone would say stay away. You catching me? Mercy says you can stay alive, but you can stay remain lost. If it was only mercy, it would only be a half of the equation. That's why grace has to step in. Grace is given when what we don't have the right to, God turns over to us. So mercy is God saying, I'm holding back the judgment. But grace is saying, now you're become my child. Ephesians chapter 2, verse 8 to 9. Get it in context, for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves. It is the gift. Hold on a second. It doesn't say that we're given grace and faith and being saved as a right, but it's a gift. It's a free gift. And come on, if you're really, if you're really serious, you only give gifts to people that you like. Is that not right, Brother Davis? Especially the more the expensive the gift is, the more you like the person. Is that true? Notice in Ephesians, if you read through all of Ephesians chapter 2, it says that initially we were dead and trespasses of sin, bound by sin under wrath. And grace doesn't just find the sick, grace finds us dead. But grace is God lifting us up and putting us into a position that we couldn't put ourselves into. We sing the song, I am a child of God, and I'm a friend of God. Listen, before we came to God, nobody in here was a friend of God. The Bible says we were enemies of God in a fight between you and God. And guess the only fight that you'll never win is a fight with God. Some people try to fight with God. God, I'm I'm Not coming to you, Lord. I'm gonna do my own thing. Good luck. I've decided I'm gonna walk my own way. And God yanks us back into a place. Can I tell you, if God is calling you, if God is reaching for you, there's no place that you can go and hide from Him. Say it again, sister. David said, if I found myself in hell, is anybody thankful that God, his grace, found me? His grace found me. And his grace doesn't just find us, but it lifts us to heavenly places. If you become a son and daughter of God, you've been a the Bible says you've been adopted into the family of God. He says, I'm gonna treat you like my own. Grace is God giving us what we could never earn or we can never pay for. Here's what grace does it says, I'm not just gonna spare you, but I'm gonna adopt you, I'm gonna justify you, I'm gonna empower you, I'm gonna sanctify you, and I'm gonna give you a future. My Lord, have mercy. Does anybody know what grace does? Grace gave me a future with him that I did not earn. You see, mercy lets me escape, but grace lets me stand. That's why the Bible says today is the day of salvation. It's his mercy and grace partnering to reach out to somebody's life. Can I just say this and move on? If you're holding back, wondering, does God really want me? The reason why you're here is because he's calling you. On one hand, his mercy stops things that's supposed to be stopping you, and his grace invites you into his presence. So why does this make a difference? Well, if I only understand mercy, I'll live like a survivor. But if I understand grace, I'll live like a child of God. I'm not just grateful that I'm not just condemned. Well, I'm grateful for that. But I'm grateful that God can transform me into the son and daughter of heaven. Now look at this. Does everybody understand the difference between mercy and grace? I need three more yeses. Okay. Now I can get into the preaching. Paul. Look what he says. Concerning this thing, I begged pledged or pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. Look at your neighbor and say, three times. He begged the Lord to take it away. Three times. He said, God, remove this from me. Three times he went to the Lord and said, God, I need this to change. And the Bible says, every time God answered him. So it wasn't like he asked three times and then God asked him on the third time. If you read through the scripture, it says, Each time God answered him. And God said the same thing. My grace is enough. But obviously, Paul didn't think that grace was enough. Because every time he said, God, remove this, God would say, Your my grace is sufficient. And he went back, God, you didn't hear me. Take this away from me. My grace is enough. No, no, no, God. You don't understand God. And oftentimes we live this way. Keep going back to God, asking Him for the same thing that He said, No, I'm gonna let it stay. If we're honest with ourselves, we don't struggle because God answered. We struggle because God gives us answers we don't like. Grace. Grace.

SPEAKER_00 27:24

And we say, that ain't enough, God. I'm letting you walk through it, but God fix it. Change it. Reverse it, God.

SPEAKER_01 27:38

And He's saying, My grace is enough. So my question is, is grace enough? Some of us are waiting on a new word when God keeps giving us the same word. Not just with grace, but so many different things. We say, God, who are you? And he brings us to the word. The fullness of the Godhead rests in him bodily. And then we go back and say, But can you tell us who you really are?

SPEAKER_00 28:13

And like Philip, if you've seen me, you're seen the Father. Is there any scripture that tells me who you are? Hero Israel.

SPEAKER_01 28:25

Lord our God is one. Oh God, I don't know if I should turn my life over to you. And he says, Repent. I'm not willing that anybody should perish, but that all that could, but no, God, but you don't understand. I need it my way, God. Listen, serving God is not like Burger King. You can't have it your way. Someone's like, Pastor Shaw, I want to go to Burger King. The word saying being baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. We say God, but God. Is it really like that? God never leaves the answer until we get it. But grace. And because grace is not answering what we're hoping for, we we keep going back to Him. God, I want the healing. My grace is sufficient. God, I want closure. My grace is sufficient. No, God, you don't get it. I want you to open the door. And he's saying, My grace is sufficient. God is saying, My grace is all you need. So my question is, grace enough? What do you do when grace is the only thing you get? Can I tell you, God brings us by faith. He saves us by grace. He keeps us and sustains us by grace. It's always been grace. Romans 5 and 20 says, where sin does abound, grace does much more. And here's the revelation. Grace. Hear me. Grace often feels like it's not enough. Anybody have their thinking cap on? Grace never feels like it's enough. That's why Paul kept going back. And every time God's grace is on us, we keep asking him for something different. Oftentimes we measure God's goodness by what he takes away from us. But grace measures his goodness by what he sustains us in. Can I tell you a secret? Grace is so interesting because it's exactly what we need. It's unmerited favor. But it never comes from a shout. Thank you, Lord. I know what what I know what's in the service today. You were coming for a shout. In a miracle, we we we we we celebrate miracles with a shout. But grace, we don't use shouting to to to employ grace. Grace comes with surrender. Grace is only given when we say it's enough. God has given me enough to deal with my circumstances situation. Can I tell you something? And this is not an exciting word, but the grace on somebody's life today is telling you that the pressure is not gonna leave you. You see, you can't shout on that. The problem's not gonna be solved the way you think it's gonna be solved. You see, that's not a shouting word. The responsibility is not gonna get less. God, remove this from me. What happens when when Grace says the conflict's not gonna leave, but you're gonna survive the conflict. Grace's testimony is that I'm still here. And I'm still praying, and I'm still faithful. Grace says, I'm still moving forward, even though everything is against me. And when I realize that life has come against me, Brother Davis, but I'm still here. Oh, you somebody's starting to get it. That's where we shout about grace. Brother, life can come at you hard, but you're still here. That's great. Showing itself. Troubles and problems might come our way, but I'm standing here only because of your grace. Somebody needs to shout about that when you get the revelation. Oh, life can beat me up, things can come against me. It was even Satan who sent the message. The Bible says that Satan was the messenger. So God put grace in an Uber and sent it with the enemy. And what the enemy meant for evil, God turned it around for my good. That's what grace, that's what I'm talking about this morning. I'm talking about a grace that goes beyond my expectation. I'm talking about a grace that moves me into a place where it says, God, don't you slam me? I'm still gonna touch you.

SPEAKER_00 34:49

Somebody trust me.

SPEAKER_01 34:57

Oh somebody better be dealing with some Why do I hold this to me? Why do you let it happen to me? Oh I love that in the Holy Ghost. Grace is keeping me. Grace is keeping you, Grace is holding you when you're supposed to be down and up, Grace is lifting you up, like you stand in heavenly places. Somebody needs to begin to show off with their grace. Yes, I've been swaying in my body, yes, I've been stuck in my spirit, but I'm still here. It's grace, it's grace. And can I tell you, if grace stays, you can survive. Oh, I thank you, Holy Ghost. Can I tell you, your grace comes with the ailment? If the trouble stays, it's only a sign that the grace has to stay. Because if the grace left, the trouble would finish me. If grace left, the weapons that would be formed would actually attack me and hurt me, but no weapon formed against me is able to prosper because it's grace. Paul realized and is asking that the answer is never gonna change because it was enough for him. So is grace enough for you? Look what Paul does. And here's the first revelation, and I'm almost done. When I was looking in the text, the Bible says, simple, but don't miss it. Three times I besought the Lord. Can you put it up? Second Corinthians chapter 12. I need you to read this. Verse 8, put it in the New Living Translation. It says, Three different times I begged. It wasn't just a cute prayer. Three times he said, Lord, take it away from me. But look at the revelation, verse nine. Each time he said, now don't go off into what he said yet. The first revelation is in that statement. Each time he said, three times I asked him, and every time he answered. Oh, you didn't get me. He said, every time he went to the Lord, the Lord didn't leave him by himself, the Lord didn't stay silent. The first understanding we must get is every time we ask God, he's able to answer, he's willing to answer. Just because we don't recognize or like the answer, doesn't mean that he's not answering. Can I tell you it's grace? The God of the universe, the God of the heaven, and the earth, underneath the God and Lord of all. Every time I call his name, he answers. Oh, you didn't get that. A few more people didn't get it. Can I tell you? I'm so thankful before God even gives me what the answer is. I'm just thankful that he answers. Oh, help me, Holy Ghost. Sister Shaw, come help me. Sister Shaw. You want me to get somebody else? Look if I if I'm in my house. You stay there. If I'm in my house and I'm downstairs, I'm not gonna break the protocol for you. But I don't in my house say, Sister Shaw. I call her by her first name. But for you, I'll just say if I'm in the house and I'm downstairs and I need something, I say, Sister Shaw. And when she doesn't answer, I start thinking, what's going on?

SPEAKER_00 40:15

Sister Shaw.

SPEAKER_01 40:20

If she doesn't answer, I have to go come upstairs.

SPEAKER_00 40:24

Sister Shaw.

SPEAKER_01 40:27

And if I keep asking her and she doesn't answer, I feel abandoned. I feel, is there something wrong? Did I do something? Don't give him that look. And it makes me think that there's something wrong with me or something wrong with my relationship. But that's not what Paul is saying.

SPEAKER_00 40:58

Paul is saying Sister Shaw. Sister Shaw. Sister Shaw.

SPEAKER_01 41:49

I don't care what she's asking and repeating to me. Because as long as she with me, the thing that I thought I needed is lesser than being in her presence. If I can say that about my wife, at the time Paul went to Jesus and he said, remove this flesh and the thorn of the flesh. And he goes back and he said, I don't know if I like that. Remove it. My grace. And he went back one more time and he said, God, can you take it from me? Oh my god.

SPEAKER_00 44:01

My grace is enough. My power works best.

SPEAKER_01 44:13

When you got that thorn in the side, my strength is only glorified more when you're supposed to be down and out. You still can stand in the presence of my Christ. It's enough. So then when Paul gets the revelation, he says, So now I am glad to post in my weakness. It says, I've been through sickness, but I know the joy of the Lord. I have a grieving in my spirit, but I know a peace that goes beyond all understanding.

SPEAKER_00 44:58

Why? Because Christ is in the house.

SPEAKER_01 45:05

Paul turned the thing around. He didn't say grace is all I get, but he says, Grace is all I need. So that the power of Christ can work through me. Paul says, God can only work through me when I have that thing that's trying to stopping me. Oh, thank you, Jesus. Can I tell you, if God didn't allow you to have that thing bothering you, that thing is what pushes you to your knees to say, God, oh, I feel the revelation of the Holy Ghost. It's the sword that lets you ask. If everything is working out for you all the time, and everything is all good for you all the time, you won't ask anything, but sometimes God said something to you so that you can say, God, I need you. And he says, I'm enough. God, I need you to survive. I'm still in. It's the thorn that gets you to the place to ask. Oh, somebody needs to get that in the Holy Ghost. It's the trouble that drives you to the way maker, miracle worker. Oh, come on, somebody. It's the trouble that brings you to a place that says, God, I need you, and you're enough for me. Every time Paul cried out, heaven wasn't silent. Every time Paul cried, he wasn't ignored. Every time Paul said something, God spoke to him. And I can tell you that that alone separates Jesus from everything else. That alone separates Jesus from every other God. No other God. They are the works of man. Can I tell you when you go to try to get finances to answer your problems? Finances never have an answer. If you go to idols, whatever that idol is. The second thing is I'm closing. Did I say that already? You're standing. I'm closing closer. Second understanding. Jesus answered him every time. Thank God. Before he even got the answer. He had the answer. Grace is so good. Because if Jesus showed up, it would have been enough. But grace is so good. My grace is enough. My strength is made. Paul realized that grace wasn't the second prize. You know the way the Olympics are going on right now. Grace is not a silver metal, the medal. Oh well, he didn't give me the answer I want, but I got the consolation prize. No, no. Paul realized when he heard the answer. Grace is the number one prize. Paul asked for removing. And God gave him grace. And when God is giving grace, he's saying a few things. He's saying, You might still feel weak, but my strength is enough to hold you. Grace says, you're still gonna face trouble. But my power will rest upon you in the middle of the trouble.

SPEAKER_00 50:11

Grace says, you're gonna have to walk through it, but you're never walking through it.

SPEAKER_01 50:19

My grace is sufficient. My grace is enough. You can stand this morning. What do we do to respond to grace? How do I understand grace now, but God, what do you want me to do with grace? Listen, grace is not responding to grace is not trying harder or trying trying to just pray three more times. That's not how we respond to grace. That's not how we respond to grace. No. How we respond to grace is I'm fully surrendered to you, God. Grace says I'm okay with what I have to face as long as you are with me. So responding to grace is saying, God, if you're with me, show me that you're enough. God, if you're if you're here with me right now, I know you're so great. You don't have to remove, and see, this this is not an easy prayer, but you have to understand it to pray. You don't have to remove something from me. I'm surrendered where I am. That's why Hebrews in scripture says, Let us come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in the time of need. Grace opened up the door so that we can walk to God boldly when we're not allowed or we're not supposed to be able to come to Him. Grace says you're allowed. So here's what I want us to do this morning. Some of you have been waiting for life to change before you move towards God. But can I tell you, life is not gonna change until you move close to God. Once you see the grace and mercy on your life, then you'll see that's the ability to change in his presence. So as Matthew would say, Come unto me, all who are laboring, heavy laden, and I will give you rest. He doesn't say I will fix it, it says I will give you rest in the midst of it. So right now, I want you to lift your hands in this house. If you need grace and more grace, may it maybe it's salvation, maybe it's renewal, maybe it's strength, maybe it's surrender. I don't know what area of grace that you need, but if you need grace as your hands are lifted, I'm gonna ask you just to step out of your seat and come right to this altar. Don't come to the altar expecting a great answer. Oh God, you're gonna remove it, you're gonna change it. But the great answer is God, you give me the grace to deal with it. That's it. Thank you for coming. If there's anybody else, I'm gonna ask you. I'm inviting you now. Thank you, I'm inviting you now. Let grace meet Grace at this altar. Oh yes. I know there's still a few more. Don't be shy, don't be shy. Oh, you've been saying, Oh, I've been serving God so long. I've been I I I'm good. No, it's grace that's making you think you're good. Let the grace flow through your life. That's it. There's still a few more. Step out of your seat. Step out of your seat, and I I'm also gonna ask those that can pray with others. I want you to come too. Those that you have a calling of prayer on people, I want you to come. Come on, yeah, that's it, that's it. That's it. That's it. Oh yes. Yes, yes.
