Never has uncertainty been any greater than it is today in uncertain times because as uncertain as things are, of this I am certain that God Almighty is still on his throne. I am certain that the word of God is true from page to page and cover to cover. I am certain that every promise locked in these pages is good for a thousand generations. I am certain that even though men on this earth may plan and they may plot and they may have disvised schemes and try to control the things of this earth, it is God who exalts one and it is God who uses men here on this earth. I am certain that God is a healer. I am certain that God is faithful. I am certain that God is all sufficient. I know that he has given his angels charge over me. I know that he will protect me. I know that he is a help to the helpless and hope to the hopeless. I know that his goodness and his mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever. I know in whom I have believed, and I believe that he is able to do exceedingly and abundantly above all that I can ask, think, or imagine. I know who he is, his name is Jesus Christ, and he is a resurrected Savior, the Son of the living God, the bright in the morning star, the fairest of ten thousand, the lion of Judah, and he is a soon coming king. Of this I am certain. And the reason I know is because his word has told me, his Holy Spirit has confirmed in me. And I hear his voice saying, Lift up your heads and rejoice, your redemption draweth nigh. Our God is a refuge, and our God is a strength, and he is an ever-present help in a time of trouble.

SPEAKER_01 2:02

Jesus Christ loves you. And I know you may have issues, and you, but you're doing better than you think you are. Somebody needs to know today you're gonna make it. Somebody needs to know today you're doing all right. You may not be what you ought to be, but you're not what you used to be. And you're gonna get there by God's grace. Don't you give up, don't you quit, and don't you keep putting yourself down. You're doing better than you think you are.

SPEAKER_02 2:32

Here's the assurance that we have: not that we would go through life without difficulty, not that we would go through life without struggle, not that we would go through life without some storm of some kind or some need arising, but that when we go through life, we go through life with the promise that in our struggle, he is our strength, in our struggle, he is our provider, in our struggle, he is our healer. In our struggle, we have a firm foundation, and Jesus is his name.

SPEAKER_01 3:03

Ecclesiastes chapter 3 gives 28 times and seasons in life. It says there's a time to be born, there's a time to die. There's a time to laugh, there's a time to cry, there's a time to dance, there's a time to mourn. There's a time to gather, there's a time to to to let go. All kinds it's 28 different times in life. The one time I can't find in there is the time to quit. There is no time to quit in your life, and that if you'll keep going, that's how you get to heaven. Tell somebody this is no time to quit. You may have bars, you may have chains, but you're still blessed.

SPEAKER_02 3:43

God loved you so much that he gave his only begotten son to die for you. What shall we say of these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? Seeing that he has given us his only begotten son, how will he not give us all things? There is not one ounce of defeat in these words, so don't you let the attitude of defeat come into you because God created you to be more than a conqueror. You will go through a season of lack, but God created you to conquer lack. You will go through a season of weakness, but God will bring you through that season of weakness stronger than you've ever been before. You need to understand what David said when he said, It was good that I had been afflicted. Why? Because it was in his affliction that he learned God's faithfulness. It was in his affliction that he learned how to run into the secret place of the Most High and dwell in the shadow of the Almighty. It was in his affliction that he learned the words, God is a refuge and God is a strength. The name of the Lord is a strong tower, and the righteous run into it and are saved. When you come into a season of struggle like you're in right now, do not be defeated because if you're breathing and the sun is shining, then God has a purpose for you. I'm speaking to families right now that don't know what to do, they're overwhelmed. Turn to Jesus, he's for you. I'm speaking to businessmen who are looking at the future forecast and they're uncertain about where the provision is going to come from. Turn to Jesus, he's a business partner that will provide for you. But don't let defeatism enter your heart, your mind, or your spirit. Because we are more than conquerors through Christ.

SPEAKER_00 5:40

It's awfully hard when I don't understand what God is doing. It takes real faith to trust in God when I don't understand why God has allowed certain things to happen. But I am convinced that God's ways are better than my ways. And I'm convinced that his ways are far wiser than my ways.

SPEAKER_01 6:12

It's one thing to worship God because you've got a nice house, because you've got a nice car, because everything's good, because all your people are blessed. That's wonderful. But it's another thing to worship God in spite of trials and bars and chains and tribulations and heartbreaks and tears. When you can do it then, when you can praise in pain, when you can lift your voice and say, the Lord gives, the Lord takes away. I don't praise you because of, I praise you in spite of my hardships. You're worthy of the praise. It's not about you, it's about Him.

SPEAKER_02 6:48

Do not be afraid. We know all things work together for good. When you have that attitude, it takes the adversity that you're in and it shapes you and it molds you. When you have that attitude, you look at struggle as a season for you to gain strength and for it to pour the rock-ribbed confidence into your soul that God is on his throne and everything is going to be alright. When you have that attitude that we know all things work together, you can say, This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be made glad in it.

SPEAKER_00 7:26

Because the man of faith has the promise of God that God is going to take care of him, that God is going to supply. And the man of faith realizes that God has means that he isn't aware of. God has resources that I don't know anything about. And thus, though things look to be hopeless and dark, yet I don't look at the circumstances. The man of faith looks at the Lord, who is above all of our circumstances. And he doesn't look to his own abilities, but he looks to God's ability to take care of and to supply for him. And thus he rejoices because God is on the throne and God has promised to take care of me.

SPEAKER_02 8:23

Today I want you to make the decision wherever you are to rejoice. Rejoice that you're saved. Rejoice that the blood of Jesus is strong enough to conquer every sin and every shackle of shame in your past. It is strong enough to conquer every disease and every sickness in your body. It is strong enough to protect you. Rejoice that God has a plan for you. He has a plan to prosper you and not to harm you. He has a plan that is far better than you could ask, think, or imagine. Rejoice that in the darkest of midnights the name of the Lord is a light and it is a salvation. Rejoice that in the midst of the storm you are worshiping the master of the wind. Rejoice that in an hour of need he is still El Shaddai, the all-sufficient one. Rejoice that in a day of trouble many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers them out of them all. Child of God, you have a reason to rejoice today because we know all things they work together for good. All things aren't good, but we have a God who's greater, and he said, I'll use it for good. All things work together. If God cares for me, if he has a purpose for me, then no adversary, seen or unseen, shall come near my dwelling.

SPEAKER_00 10:05

God is on the throne. You have the promises of God. The Lord will take care of you. God has provisions that you don't even know about. So rejoice. Be lifted up. That is the position that faith takes. Above the circumstances, not looking at the circumstances, but looking to God who is in control.

SPEAKER_02 10:39

So I want you to ask yourself: what is your outlook today? Are you determined? Are you in denial? Are you walking around in defeat? Don't deny the problem. Because the problem is real, but the God that you serve is greater. Don't deny that the world needs Jesus now more than ever. You see, when you're called according to God's purpose, you call upon His name. And I assure you of this in His name you find provision, you find peace, you find protection, you find direction, you find health, you find satisfaction, you find sufficiency, you find righteousness, you find comfort when you call upon the name of the Lord. That means that there's not one hour of one day that you will face one situation when Jehovah God, your God, the great I am, does not have the strength and the power to sustain you. Call upon his name, and he said, I'll answer you and show you great and mighty things that you know not. No matter what you face in this life, as long as you can call upon Jesus, you can overcome anything.

SPEAKER_00 11:58

It could be that you have that feeling that God isn't hearing you when you pray. Or it may be that you even feel worse than that, that God doesn't care. That God isn't concerned. But I can assure you from the Word of God that He does care and He is concerned. And He tells you to just cast all your cares on Him because He does care for you. So I would encourage you to look up. Quit looking at the problem, quit looking at the circumstances, quit being overwhelmed by your weakness and ineptness to take care of the situation and look to God who has promised to take care of you and to provide all of your needs. But I don't see where you don't have to. He has resources you don't know anything about.

SPEAKER_02 13:06

When you face a problem that you can't answer, call upon Jehovah. Because Jehovah Jireh means He's the God who can see. There are men sitting in office buildings that are empty, trying to see their way to a solution. Call upon Jehovah Jirah. He sees your provision before you ask for the need. When the weight of the world has pulled you to your knees and you're about to break under the pressure of fear, call upon Jehovah Shalom. He is the Prince of Peace. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will rule your heart and mind in Christ Jesus. When you feel abandoned and alone, call upon Jehovah Shammah, he's the God who's there. When your soul is barren and dry and you're searching for some form of satisfaction, call upon Jehovah Makedesh, because he is the living water who will satisfy. If you're needing healing, call upon Jehovah Rophay, he's the healer. But whatever you do, do not be defeated. Do not live in denial. Live in determination. God is for you, and therefore no one can be against you.
