- 2:01fear and
- 2:02[Music]
- 2:04worry which dominates the

- 3:21given us
- 3:23that God has not given us that God has
- 3:26not given us the spirit of fear
- 3:31but Power love and a sound

- 9:01celebrate the person of God like the
- 9:04Hebrew boy said even if he

- 9:15like saying and Bishop I know you'll
- 9:17help me I don't really like saying
- 9:19praise and
- 9:21worship because you praise him for what
- 9:24he for what he does and has done and you
- 9:26worship him for who he is but never put
- 9:29what does before who he
- 9:32is because when you put what he does
- 9:34before who he is you'll fall in love
- 9:37with his hand and not his
- 9:38[Music]
- 9:39heart you don't want anybody with you
- 9:42from what they can get out of you you
- 9:43want somebody running with you for who

- 9:49want you kicking with him for what you
- 9:50can get out of him but kick it with him
- 9:53for who he is
- 9:55[Music]
- 9:59yeah you worship Him who he is you
- 10:01praise him for what he
- 10:04has done celebrate the
- 10:09person of
- 10:11God uh I I really believe every time we
- 10:14come in here it should be like a funeral
- 10:17you know and just stay with me now it
- 10:21really should be like a funeral every
- 10:22time we come in here because people pack
- 10:25it out and they in the Overflow
- 10:27room but they they pack pack it out for
- 10:29one person that I believe we're the most
- 10:31focused at a
- 10:33funeral because people pack it out for
- 10:36one person and that's the one who
- 10:43died they they they they fill the
- 10:46house for the one who
- 10:49died and I believe every time we come in
- 10:53here it ought to be for one
- 10:56person and that's the one who died
- 11:00and got up early Sunday morning with all
- 11:03[Music]

- 11:11in there I know what they doing I know
- 11:12what she doing I know they' been there
- 11:14for a
- 11:15funeral you know why cuz the one who
- 11:17died is bigger than everybody in
- 11:20there and when you come in here it ought
- 11:22to be for the one who died I ain't care
- 11:23less what she think about me he said
- 11:25about me they didn't die for me y'all

- 14:34this when you go to that funeral TJ on
- 14:38the back of that
- 14:41program uh you find active power
- 14:47bearers I like
- 14:49[Music]
- 14:50them because they actually lifting up
- 14:53the one who
- 14:55died they they they're actually being
- 14:58mobile with the one who who died they
- 15:00actually came the one who died from here
- 15:01to there I I like active P
- 15:05Baron but this other group right here
- 15:09why are they names even on the
- 15:11program honorary Paul
- 15:16barar what are they
- 15:24doing y'all could have put more pictures
- 15:26right
- 15:27here why why y'all putting folk on the
- 15:29program that ain't doing
- 15:34nothing honorary are they too old to
- 15:37live
- 15:38or they grieving too hard to live cuz
- 15:41some of them younger than
- 15:45me and then you come in
- 15:48here you got some honorary
- 15:52folk that's watching other folk live
- 15:55[Music]
- 16:00but thank God for the active folk who
- 16:03actually came to lift up the one who
- 16:06died that's why when I come to church I
- 16:08just can't sit by anybody because
- 16:11everybody didn't come to
- 16:13live I have to look at a negro and say
- 16:15God is good if they look at me I find
- 16:18another seat but when I find somebody
- 16:20and I say God is good they say yes he is
- 16:23scoot over cuz I want to sit by somebody
- 16:25that's going to help me
- 16:27live up the the name of Jesus for he
- 16:31said if I be lifted
- 16:33up from the earth I'll draw all
- 16:37[Music]
- 16:40men ask your neighbor are you active or
- 16:55honorary he said rejoice
- 16:59in the lord
- 17:00always and
- 17:03again I say rejoice because Joy
- 17:06ultimately comes from the
- 17:09Lord nemiah 8:10 the joy of the Lord is
- 17:13mine but then number two he says write

- 17:22Lord he said let your gentleness be made
- 17:24known then he says the Lord is near
- 17:27appreciate the presence of God y'all
- 17:30he's saying instead of focusing on the
- 17:34pressures and the problem and the people
- 17:39that causes our
- 17:41[Music]
- 17:42anxiety he says rather focus on
- 17:46God who can
- 17:48handle the pressures and the problem and
- 17:52the people that
- 17:55causes our
- 17:57anxiety in other words the key to
