It's almost time for Kids Time,
00:00:01.98\00:00:02.99
we're gonna be
late. It's time to share
00:00:03.51\00:00:06.18
there's a world out
there, looking for a friend
00:00:06.36\00:00:10.07
like Jesus, it's time
to share there's a world
00:00:10.13\00:00:15.03
out there. Let's tell
them that He loves us so.
00:00:15.19\00:00:19.52
Let's tell them
that He loves us so.
00:00:20.36\00:00:23.72
Kids Time, Kids Time, Kids Time.
00:00:24.32\00:00:29.79
Hi boys and girls,
if I offered to give you
00:00:31.03\00:00:33.42
anything you
wanted what would you ask
00:00:33.45\00:00:35.71
for, would it be a
pony or a new bike,
00:00:35.84\00:00:38.25
how about an iPod or
an exciting vacation.
00:00:38.67\00:00:41.31
In fact wouldn't
you like to have this
00:00:41.74\00:00:43.92
beautiful present
right here. My grandsons
00:00:44.01\00:00:46.91
Michael and
Jason know that I have
00:00:46.94\00:00:48.49
really soft heart
and I love to give them
00:00:48.55\00:00:50.90
things. I love
to see them happy.
00:00:50.97\00:00:53.13
God loves to give
good gifts to his children
00:00:53.45\00:00:55.76
too. He loves to see you happy.
00:00:55.80\00:00:57.82
But God's gifts
are a whole lot better
00:00:58.19\00:01:00.36
than anything I
can give. Back in Bible
00:01:00.53\00:01:03.01
times, a man ask
the Prophet Elijah for a
00:01:03.17\00:01:05.77
very special gift,
but what he ask for wasn't
00:01:05.91\00:01:08.91
something Elijah
could give him. It was a
00:01:08.94\00:01:11.50
gift that had to
come from God and when
00:01:11.65\00:01:14.59
he received it that
man was truly happy.
00:01:14.65\00:01:17.58
Best of all he used
that gift to bless others
00:01:18.52\00:01:21.14
for as long as he lived
and it's a gift that you
00:01:21.21\00:01:24.01
can ask for too. You
will meet that man in our
00:01:24.07\00:01:26.59
Bible story today
and find out what he
00:01:26.65\00:01:28.76
asked for. But first let's get
00:01:28.91\00:01:31.58
ready for our Nature Time.
00:01:31.76\00:01:34.12
Hi boys and girls,
welcome to Nature Time.
00:01:39.72\00:01:42.05
We have a special
thrill today, we have
00:01:42.56\00:01:44.09
our friend Lin with us
and she is one of those
00:01:44.18\00:01:46.67
people that work with
animals and birds that
00:01:46.73\00:01:49.47
have been injured,
and we have some of her
00:01:49.50\00:01:51.93
friends today. Lin,
what is this we have?
00:01:51.98\00:01:54.11
This is a little
Saw-whet Owl. Amazing,
00:01:54.93\00:01:58.37
now it has been
injured? It has, it actually
00:01:58.40\00:02:01.04
was hit by a car
and a gentleman was kind
00:02:01.19\00:02:05.13
enough to stop
actually see it in the middle
00:02:05.21\00:02:07.21
of a highway, pick it
up and bring it to our
00:02:07.24\00:02:09.41
facility. And then you
cared for it will never
00:02:09.52\00:02:12.65
be able to fly
again perhaps. No, this is
00:02:12.68\00:02:14.79
not a really simple
bird, so we will keep
00:02:14.83\00:02:17.73
it on, and use it in
education programs and
00:02:17.78\00:02:20.98
events like
this. That's wonderful,
00:02:21.74\00:02:23.44
now this creature
being an owl, it would
00:02:23.75\00:02:26.30
live in a hole, in a
tree hole is that what
00:02:26.41\00:02:28.93
they normally do.
Yeah, most of our owls
00:02:29.01\00:02:31.14
are what we call
cavity nesters, they will
00:02:31.17\00:02:33.69
seek out a hole in a
dead tree or stump and
00:02:34.54\00:02:39.27
lay their eggs
there. And how many eggs
00:02:39.31\00:02:41.38
do they would
normally have. For these
00:02:41.41\00:02:43.65
species usually 2 to
4, so right in that range.
00:02:43.68\00:02:47.51
Now do both the
parents feed, do you
00:02:47.59\00:02:50.37
know if both the
parent feed father and
00:02:50.41\00:02:51.98
mother, both they
feed. They actually do
00:02:52.01\00:02:53.92
and that's fairly
consistent with most of
00:02:53.95\00:02:56.70
the owl's species,
primarily it's the female
00:02:56.74\00:03:00.34
that's stays with
the nest incubating the
00:03:00.45\00:03:03.58
eggs and then
defending the young and the
00:03:03.63\00:03:05.85
male is the one that
usually goes back and
00:03:05.88\00:03:07.80
forth bringing the
food. I have a question
00:03:07.88\00:03:10.39
Ranger Jim. Is this a
baby owl or this owl's
00:03:10.45\00:03:14.95
full grown size. This
is actually a full grown
00:03:14.98\00:03:17.33
Saw-whet Owl.
They're one of the smallest
00:03:17.41\00:03:19.52
owls that we have
here in North America
00:03:19.60\00:03:21.57
and yeah it won't
get any bigger than this.
00:03:22.18\00:03:24.61
It's even smaller
then the Screech Owl that
00:03:25.03\00:03:26.46
we heard. Yes it is
yeah. And boys and girls
00:03:26.53\00:03:28.90
if you have been
out camping perhaps at
00:03:28.97\00:03:30.92
night and you have
heard the Screech Owl,
00:03:30.95\00:03:32.87
it can be a nerving
somewhat, a high pitch,
00:03:34.38\00:03:36.51
well I can't do it
because my lips are not
00:03:37.69\00:03:38.92
just right now, but
a high pitch screaming
00:03:38.96\00:03:40.96
sounds that give
you those cool chills on
00:03:41.02\00:03:43.20
the back of your
neck and that is the
00:03:43.37\00:03:46.48
Screech Owl. And so
this is very interesting
00:03:46.82\00:03:48.83
to me because I
quite frankly have never
00:03:48.86\00:03:50.80
seen one Ranger Rod
up close and its very
00:03:50.93\00:03:53.61
exciting to me see.
Now you also have Barred
00:03:53.69\00:03:56.49
Owls, do you have
that come. Now tell us
00:03:56.53\00:03:58.59
something about the
Barred Owls. Okay the
00:03:58.63\00:04:00.92
Barred Owl is one of
our larger owls here in
00:04:00.95\00:04:03.52
North America,
it's actually the forth
00:04:03.59\00:04:05.44
largest by weight,
and they're more common
00:04:05.60\00:04:08.83
in the Northern
parts of the country,
00:04:09.83\00:04:11.89
and this little guy
is found throughout the
00:04:12.39\00:04:15.79
US. It's a fairly
common owl in North America,
00:04:15.89\00:04:18.95
yeah. We have,
when we were in Florida,
00:04:19.38\00:04:21.65
we have Barred
Owls and they come every
00:04:21.77\00:04:24.85
evening near our
camp and especially early
00:04:24.89\00:04:28.25
in the spring when
they begin to, begin to
00:04:28.28\00:04:30.51
nest and mate like
that they go up they
00:04:30.60\00:04:32.83
have a high pitch
call, I have a friend who can
00:04:32.93\00:04:34.48
do it, ooh aah aah a
fellow calling back and
00:04:34.55\00:04:37.69
forth and fussing, and
its it's really amusing
00:04:37.75\00:04:40.10
to hear when they
are talking back and
00:04:40.16\00:04:42.05
forth and people in
our camps are I wish
00:04:42.15\00:04:44.28
someone get a gun,
and shoot those old owls,
00:04:44.39\00:04:46.14
and I say don't you
dare. No. You should do
00:04:46.17\00:04:49.58
something that I
would most certainly.
00:04:49.68\00:04:51.11
Now tell us, let's
talk about the big guy in
00:04:51.47\00:04:54.34
the owl family
the great Horned Owl.
00:04:54.41\00:04:56.09
Okay, yeah the Great
Horned is the largest
00:04:56.29\00:04:58.92
by weight in
North America and we are
00:04:59.02\00:05:03.08
currently carrying for
a couple of Great Horned
00:05:03.18\00:05:05.33
Owls that have being
injured. We also have
00:05:05.39\00:05:08.26
what's call the
Great Grey Owl they are
00:05:08.39\00:05:10.29
taller yet than
the Great Horned Owl.
00:05:10.36\00:05:13.47
They are the tallest
that we have in North
00:05:13.50\00:05:15.49
America so. We have,
they are quite common
00:05:15.54\00:05:18.29
were we live in
Michigan were the Great
00:05:18.41\00:05:20.84
Horned Owl is quite
common and of course
00:05:20.97\00:05:22.79
mostly throughout
United States we have
00:05:22.86\00:05:24.39
and I caution
people and I have cautioned
00:05:24.93\00:05:27.22
them before that if
you have and unfortunately
00:05:27.29\00:05:30.01
we have many
people do that have a cat,
00:05:30.09\00:05:31.87
pet cat that they
just allow to go out and
00:05:32.33\00:05:34.14
just prowl the
woods and what have you be
00:05:34.17\00:05:36.19
very careful in the
spring because the Great
00:05:36.34\00:05:38.38
Horned Owl is a
very efficient predator.
00:05:38.47\00:05:41.31
They are not
beyond scooping right down
00:05:41.77\00:05:44.06
on silent wings and
they will pick up the cat
00:05:44.09\00:05:46.19
and the cat will
disappear. And you mention
00:05:46.52\00:05:48.95
that Ranger Jim
these are predatory birds,
00:05:48.98\00:05:51.09
a bird this small what
would it primarily feed
00:05:51.64\00:05:55.26
on. Yeah, you're
right these are all raptors
00:05:55.33\00:05:58.99
which means the
birds of pray and they do
00:05:59.09\00:06:01.21
hunt for live food.
This little guy would feed
00:06:01.30\00:06:05.30
primarily on mice,
small rodents in the wild,
00:06:05.37\00:06:08.96
and sometimes small birds. Okay.
00:06:09.19\00:06:11.58
And there is
something peculiar about the
00:06:12.56\00:06:14.73
Great Horned Owl,
he is one of the few
00:06:14.79\00:06:17.41
creatures in
nature that eats skunk.
00:06:17.46\00:06:20.64
That's correct. The
Great Horned Owl will
00:06:21.18\00:06:23.09
scoop down and grab
a skunk, and so I have
00:06:23.15\00:06:25.69
found many Great
Horned Owl nest just simply
00:06:25.72\00:06:29.24
sniffing the air. I
know it's in the area,
00:06:29.27\00:06:31.33
but I can tell that
is very, very common
00:06:31.79\00:06:34.78
to find that the
Great Horned Owl will
00:06:34.84\00:06:36.73
take snunk. And
thank you so much Lin for
00:06:36.81\00:06:38.96
coming today and
being with us. My pleasure.
00:06:39.12\00:06:40.97
Boys and girls
Ranger Jim, and Ranger Rod
00:06:41.56\00:06:43.86
as saying as always
don't forget to tell Jesus
00:06:44.39\00:06:47.04
you love him because
he really does love you.
00:06:47.19\00:06:50.66
Peter and John went to pray.
00:06:59.56\00:07:02.92
They met a lame man on the way.
00:07:03.23\00:07:06.69
He asked for alms
and held out his palms,
00:07:07.18\00:07:10.90
And this is what Peter did say"
00:07:11.04\00:07:14.70
Silver and gold have I none,
00:07:15.23\00:07:18.36
but such as I have give I thee.
00:07:18.84\00:07:22.34
In the name of Jesus Christ of
00:07:22.69\00:07:26.70
Nazareth rise up and walk.
00:07:26.91\00:07:30.03
He went walking and
leaping and praising God,
00:07:30.33\00:07:34.45
Walking and
leaping and praising God,
00:07:34.65\00:07:38.36
In the name of Jesus Christ of
00:07:38.53\00:07:42.65
Nazareth rise up and walk.
00:07:42.82\00:07:46.15
[Foreign language]
00:07:46.96\00:08:35.27
In the name of Jesus Christ of
00:08:35.48\00:08:39.78
Nazareth rise up and walk.
00:08:40.11\00:08:46.11
Welcome to Learning
Time, I'm glad you're here
00:08:52.78\00:08:54.54
today and I've got
a studio audience here
00:08:54.80\00:08:56.73
are you glad to
be here too. Yes.
00:08:56.80\00:08:59.74
Well today we got three helpers.
00:09:00.45\00:09:01.85
We are gonna to do
some experiments looks
00:09:01.98\00:09:03.24
like we got some
equipment up here this
00:09:03.35\00:09:05.10
should be interesting.
I've got Jocelyn over
00:09:05.14\00:09:07.35
there. Jocelyn, have
you ever wanted to fly?
00:09:07.38\00:09:09.61
Yeah. Oh cool well
today we are gonna talk
00:09:10.46\00:09:12.45
about flying and
that will be fun.
00:09:12.58\00:09:14.15
We've got Macey over here.
00:09:14.30\00:09:15.33
Macey, have you ever flown?
00:09:15.61\00:09:16.82
No, well there is
gonna be fun, I don't think
00:09:18.10\00:09:19.41
you are gonna fly
today but we might make
00:09:19.53\00:09:20.93
something else fly.
We got Bryan way back
00:09:21.06\00:09:23.38
there, Bryan
have you ever flown?
00:09:23.56\00:09:25.18
No. No, yeah we are
gonna fly something,
00:09:25.31\00:09:27.33
so come up my
helpers and let's see
00:09:27.42\00:09:29.16
what we can fly
around here today.
00:09:29.25\00:09:31.22
Now we've got a
piece of equipment up
00:09:31.66\00:09:33.21
here and what is
this staying up here.
00:09:33.37\00:09:36.24
Come on in right
over here what is that
00:09:36.43\00:09:38.26
thing? A fan. It's a
fan that's right, we can
00:09:38.30\00:09:40.84
cool ourselves off
with the fan couldn't we,
00:09:40.90\00:09:42.33
and that would be kind
of cool to cool yourself
00:09:42.63\00:09:44.60
off but instead
we're gonna use it in order
00:09:44.73\00:09:47.16
to make something
fly. And if you have fan
00:09:47.19\00:09:49.84
at home you can do
this experiment too.
00:09:49.90\00:09:52.74
I love experiments
that we can do at home.
00:09:52.80\00:09:54.61
So, Macey why
don't you grab a hold of
00:09:55.02\00:09:56.97
balloon, yeah this
is cool and you can have
00:09:57.00\00:09:58.72
one too Jocelyn. I
am gonna turn the fan on
00:09:58.75\00:10:01.23
and then I am gonna
see as you gonna make
00:10:01.53\00:10:04.00
a noise. Yes. Yes,
we have a motor there
00:10:04.03\00:10:06.24
and there is fan, so
I am gonna to turn it
00:10:06.27\00:10:07.59
on that at our
lowest speed and I can feel
00:10:07.63\00:10:10.47
the air coming up
here, can you feel it Bryan.
00:10:10.53\00:10:12.43
Yeah. Can you feel
the air, okay yeah,
00:10:13.56\00:10:14.53
hey Macey can you
put your balloon right
00:10:14.54\00:10:16.64
here and let check
this out, oh cool isn't
00:10:16.74\00:10:20.82
that neat. Yes. The
balloon is just flying
00:10:20.85\00:10:24.54
around, go ahead
and grab it, why don't
00:10:24.57\00:10:25.61
you put your
balloon on there too.
00:10:25.72\00:10:26.88
We've got one
over here, hang on and
00:10:27.18\00:10:29.15
we're gonna try to
get this go and add
00:10:29.18\00:10:30.41
yours too there,
see if we can get two of
00:10:30.49\00:10:31.96
them going, we can
get two of them flying
00:10:31.99\00:10:33.51
around, wow. And
they're just flying around
00:10:33.57\00:10:36.02
and sometimes they
fall off but you know
00:10:36.05\00:10:38.22
there's a science
principal that we want
00:10:38.25\00:10:39.86
to talk about and
it's about fast moving air.
00:10:39.89\00:10:42.57
When we have fast
moving air, go and
00:10:42.77\00:10:44.48
put that one back
on. When we have fast
00:10:44.59\00:10:46.39
moving air, it
creates low air pressure and
00:10:46.42\00:10:49.80
then high air
pressure just keeps all of
00:10:49.85\00:10:52.19
those balloons
flying, isn't that cool. Yes.
00:10:52.26\00:10:55.07
I think it's great,
well Macey you want to
00:10:55.10\00:10:56.49
jump up here and see
if we can you to fly.
00:10:56.59\00:10:58.52
No, it wouldn't work,
would it? I'll tell you
00:10:59.05\00:11:00.98
what we got
though I've got a big old
00:11:01.02\00:11:02.80
beach balloon right
here, so Bryan why don't
00:11:02.83\00:11:04.39
you grab a hold of
this, I want you to
00:11:04.42\00:11:05.55
put it right here
Let's see if we can fly
00:11:05.67\00:11:07.50
that, is that
flying? No. No, what's wrong?
00:11:07.53\00:11:11.45
It's too heavy. It's
too heavy or we don't
00:11:11.79\00:11:14.44
have what?
Enough air. Enough air,
00:11:14.50\00:11:17.27
well I'll tell you
let's turn it on to the next
00:11:17.30\00:11:19.43
speed, okay. Let's
turn it on to the medium
00:11:19.52\00:11:21.88
speed the fan's
going, is blowing a lot more
00:11:21.91\00:11:24.97
air it's still not
gonna work, yeah how
00:11:25.00\00:11:26.47
about on high. Check,
it's really on high now
00:11:26.50\00:11:28.93
it's moving around
a little bit making me
00:11:29.66\00:11:31.26
a little dizzy. But we
still don't have enough
00:11:31.29\00:11:34.54
air, I'll tell
what I am gonna to do.
00:11:34.57\00:11:36.29
Bryan why don't
you grab that off of it
00:11:36.43\00:11:37.78
for us, this balloon
or beach ball I guess
00:11:38.08\00:11:40.42
that's what it is. Hey
lets try something that
00:11:40.50\00:11:43.05
can give us some
more force, you know
00:11:43.14\00:11:45.83
force is kind of
an interesting thing.
00:11:45.86\00:11:47.55
Do you know what
this is? A leaf blower.
00:11:48.10\00:11:50.71
Yeah, it's a leaf
blower and you know if you
00:11:50.74\00:11:52.19
don't have the hair
dryer and you forget
00:11:52.22\00:11:53.71
you can always use
this because well probably
00:11:53.74\00:11:56.16
not, hey we've got a
lot of air right here
00:11:56.19\00:11:58.24
I forget which way
this switch works and
00:11:58.35\00:11:59.89
that's the. Oh
there sorry about that.
00:11:59.92\00:12:04.39
Yeah, I am going to
turn this thing on and
00:12:04.59\00:12:06.58
Bryan what I want you
to do and this might be
00:12:06.61\00:12:08.38
hard, you might have
to practice it a couple
00:12:08.41\00:12:09.92
of time. I want you
to throw the ball the
00:12:10.01\00:12:12.29
beach ball up in the
air and we are gonna to
00:12:12.34\00:12:14.62
try to get the
beach ball focus on that
00:12:14.65\00:12:17.14
blast of air
coming out of our blower,
00:12:17.20\00:12:19.33
are you ready okay
here we go how about
00:12:19.38\00:12:21.92
a count down here 3 2
1. Okay up in the air,
00:12:21.99\00:12:26.45
okay let's try it
again, let's try it again,
00:12:27.98\00:12:29.79
give it to Bryan okay.
Just kind of straight up
00:12:29.93\00:12:31.84
here let's try again
and here we go countdown
00:12:31.91\00:12:33.87
3 2 1. Oh yeah isn't
cool we got blower over
00:12:34.30\00:12:44.27
here. A little
louder there. There it go,
00:12:44.35\00:12:49.98
well over here,
we can go over there,
00:12:50.34\00:12:54.64
isn't that cool.
Isn't that something,
00:12:55.20\00:13:03.12
that really is you
know if that ball and
00:13:03.86\00:13:06.22
these balloons if
they didn't float,
00:13:06.31\00:13:08.26
when we have a lot
of air pressure going
00:13:08.71\00:13:10.54
through there you
know every airplane
00:13:10.65\00:13:12.49
would have to
crash because that's how
00:13:12.57\00:13:14.48
airplanes fly, fast
moving air creates low air
00:13:14.51\00:13:18.21
pressure and the
high air pressure keeps
00:13:18.28\00:13:20.11
the wing up and it's
keeps these balloons up
00:13:20.14\00:13:22.41
and it keeps them
from falling out of that
00:13:22.63\00:13:24.32
blast of air, isn't
that cool. Yeah. Yeah,
00:13:24.35\00:13:27.77
and you know what
every time I see a
00:13:28.15\00:13:29.26
bird's wing or a bird
fly, it reminds me that
00:13:29.35\00:13:32.49
God made those
little bird wings and
00:13:32.63\00:13:34.92
those bird wings,
they use that principle,
00:13:35.02\00:13:38.05
that natural
principle and we call it the
00:13:38.50\00:13:39.88
Bernoulli effect
because Robert Bernoulli,
00:13:39.92\00:13:43.06
he thought of it,
but it was something that
00:13:43.51\00:13:45.28
God had already
invented right and created.
00:13:45.31\00:13:47.81
And that's why
birds can fly and that's
00:13:48.11\00:13:50.02
why airplanes can
fly, and that's really cool
00:13:50.05\00:13:52.90
science. Well
remember boys and girls
00:13:53.04\00:13:55.51
whenever we learn
more about science we're
00:13:55.92\00:13:58.36
learning more
about our creator God.
00:13:58.45\00:14:01.70
May the God of
heaven bless you as you
00:14:08.46\00:14:10.90
serve him all of
your life? Thank You.
00:14:11.04\00:14:15.48
You are welcome. Excuse me. Yes.
00:14:15.64\00:14:24.18
Isn't that Elijah's
mantle? Yes, it is. Yes,
00:14:25.26\00:14:28.58
it is, what are you
doing with it, who are you,
00:14:28.77\00:14:31.79
where is Elijah. I am Elisha,
00:14:32.35\00:14:34.46
I was Elijah's servant
and this is his mantle.
00:14:35.21\00:14:37.94
Oh yes. And now I
am the Prophet of God.
00:14:38.24\00:14:41.14
You are the
Prophet? Friend let me tell
00:14:41.19\00:14:44.42
you about the first
time. I am confused.
00:14:44.45\00:14:45.73
I met Elijah, I was
out on my field plowing
00:14:45.90\00:14:49.00
with my ox, and
Elijah the Prophet came
00:14:49.03\00:14:51.93
up and I saw him,
and I stopped, and he
00:14:51.96\00:14:53.65
walked right up to
me and he took this very
00:14:53.80\00:14:56.24
mantle and he
placed it on my shoulder.
00:14:56.32\00:14:58.76
As soon as he did
that I knew that God was
00:14:59.65\00:15:02.54
calling me to serve
the Prophet. Well, I didn't
00:15:02.63\00:15:07.16
go back home, I
didn't tell my folks,
00:15:07.19\00:15:09.53
I just left straight
then to serve Elijah.
00:15:09.95\00:15:13.63
And these last
few years have being
00:15:14.62\00:15:16.15
amazing. Elijah is
just superman of God.
00:15:16.21\00:15:19.88
He prays for people
and things happened.
00:15:20.47\00:15:22.92
When he goes and
talks people listen and
00:15:23.35\00:15:25.39
as I watched him I
saw the spirit of God
00:15:25.46\00:15:27.58
moving in him and I
said some day I hope
00:15:27.71\00:15:31.12
that I can have this
spirit too. Well, just
00:15:31.52\00:15:36.28
last night I had a
dream and in this dream
00:15:36.31\00:15:38.81
God told me that
Elijah was going to be
00:15:39.82\00:15:41.93
taken up to heaven
and I woke up and I
00:15:41.98\00:15:44.88
wondered what
that dream meant and we
00:15:45.41\00:15:48.47
were in Bethel and
Elijah said Elisha,
00:15:48.50\00:15:51.74
it is time for me
to go, you stay here.
00:15:51.81\00:15:53.85
And I said surely as
the Lord lives master,
00:15:54.92\00:15:56.79
I will not leave you,
so we left together and
00:15:56.87\00:16:00.58
we went to Jericho,
at the school of the
00:16:00.62\00:16:02.00
Prophets and when
we got there he said
00:16:02.07\00:16:04.36
Elisha, it's time for
me to go you stay here.
00:16:04.84\00:16:07.56
Once again I said as
surely as the Lord lives,
00:16:08.33\00:16:11.61
I will not leave
you. So we walked out of
00:16:11.77\00:16:15.20
town and when we
came to Jordan River,
00:16:15.47\00:16:17.59
we were out there
nobody else was there,
00:16:17.81\00:16:19.43
just me and him
and he was really quiet
00:16:19.54\00:16:22.03
and I was just
walking right behind and
00:16:22.60\00:16:24.33
wondering, is he
going to be taken to heaven
00:16:24.47\00:16:27.92
what's gonna
happen. And I was kind of
00:16:28.18\00:16:30.30
sad because Elijah
was my best friend and
00:16:30.46\00:16:33.02
he became a father
to me and the thought
00:16:33.22\00:16:35.27
of him being gone was scary.
00:16:35.30\00:16:37.58
Well we came to
Jordan river and he said
00:16:38.37\00:16:40.69
Elisha stay
here, I must go alone.
00:16:40.77\00:16:43.24
And I said as
surely as the Lord lives,
00:16:44.04\00:16:46.10
I will not leave you
master and he kind of
00:16:46.24\00:16:49.13
smiled and then he
took this mantle and he
00:16:49.21\00:16:52.09
rolled it up and he
struck the Jordan river
00:16:52.14\00:16:55.41
and the Jordan river
just spread and there
00:16:55.92\00:16:59.04
was a dry path way
right between in the river
00:16:59.07\00:17:01.65
and we are able to
walk across on dry ground.
00:17:02.62\00:17:05.10
Now after that
miracle I knew something
00:17:06.57\00:17:08.03
special is gonna
happened and I wasn't
00:17:08.10\00:17:10.09
disappointed because
very soon after we got
00:17:10.21\00:17:12.10
on to the other side I
heard this sound that was
00:17:12.13\00:17:15.46
so beautiful, I
can't even describe it.
00:17:15.49\00:17:18.16
And I looked up and
it was like a shooting
00:17:18.77\00:17:22.10
star or a fiery
chariot or something came
00:17:22.27\00:17:26.24
right down and
swept in between me and
00:17:26.45\00:17:28.74
Elijah and it caught
up Elijah and it took him
00:17:28.84\00:17:31.84
up into the sky and
as he got further and
00:17:31.92\00:17:34.33
further away I saw
him take something to
00:17:34.39\00:17:36.39
throw it behind him
and then he disappeared
00:17:36.46\00:17:39.12
and this mantle
landed right at my feet and
00:17:41.12\00:17:45.47
then I knew without
a shadow of a doubt,
00:17:45.50\00:17:48.36
that I was the
next Prophet of God.
00:17:48.46\00:17:51.50
I walked back to the
Jordan river and I took
00:17:53.22\00:17:55.14
the mantle and I
struck the water again and
00:17:55.17\00:17:58.41
there was a dry path
for me to cross over.
00:17:59.01\00:18:01.16
I crossed over
and now I've met you,
00:18:02.34\00:18:05.61
you're the first
person I have told.
00:18:05.68\00:18:07.31
I don't know what
God has in store for the
00:18:08.32\00:18:10.11
future, but I know
that he will bless me
00:18:10.27\00:18:13.05
because before
Elijah left he said is there
00:18:13.19\00:18:15.71
any thing I can give
you and I said Elijah,
00:18:15.74\00:18:18.44
if you can give me
one thing in the world
00:18:19.17\00:18:20.71
I would like a double
portion of your spirit
00:18:21.18\00:18:23.61
and Elijah said,
that's a hard thing you're
00:18:24.64\00:18:27.38
asking, but if you
see me being taken into
00:18:27.44\00:18:30.40
heaven you will
receive and praise the
00:18:30.49\00:18:34.49
Lord I saw him go
up to heaven and I know
00:18:34.55\00:18:37.78
that Jehovah will
fill me with two times the
00:18:38.45\00:18:41.22
spirit that Elijah
have and I know that he's
00:18:41.25\00:18:45.16
going to do amazing
things for this country.
00:18:45.26\00:18:47.30
So it is Elijah
mantle. Yes it is. And you
00:18:49.43\00:18:53.26
have being chosen
by God to be a Prophet.
00:18:53.29\00:18:55.95
Yes, I have Praise
the Lord. Praise the Lord.
00:18:56.49\00:18:59.65
Well I have to keep
going, the schools of the
00:19:01.07\00:19:03.19
Prophets need to
hear the story and they
00:19:03.30\00:19:05.34
need to know that
when God calls you to
00:19:05.48\00:19:07.16
do something he
will take care of you and
00:19:07.36\00:19:09.38
he will fill you
with his Holy Spirit.
00:19:09.41\00:19:11.82
Can you bless me before you go?
00:19:12.10\00:19:13.37
I would love too.
Father, please bless this man
00:19:13.65\00:19:17.32
and fill him with your
spirit. Help us to stand
00:19:17.43\00:19:20.03
strong for you
Amen. Praise the Lord.
00:19:20.16\00:19:23.28
Thank you. Praise
the Lord. Thank you.
00:19:23.44\00:19:24.95
Hi boys and girls,
it's time for Miss Brenda's
00:20:23.40\00:20:25.65
book of the day.
And today I have a
00:20:25.86\00:20:28.69
wonderful book for
you, it's call Step By
00:20:28.78\00:20:30.97
Step by Jerry D.
Thomas, an incredible author
00:20:31.07\00:20:33.82
and he is written
a book to help you
00:20:34.03\00:20:36.09
understand how to
have a closer walk with
00:20:36.20\00:20:38.22
Jesus. And it's a
wonderful book that I
00:20:38.29\00:20:40.70
highly recommend and
I think any time that
00:20:40.78\00:20:42.87
we have a chance to
learn how to be closer
00:20:43.02\00:20:45.04
to Jesus it's the
thing to do, right?
00:20:45.10\00:20:47.77
And someone else that
loves Jesus and always
00:20:48.14\00:20:51.38
wants a closer walk
with him is my friend Alex.
00:20:51.43\00:20:54.02
Thank you Alex for
being with us today I am
00:20:54.13\00:20:55.89
really, I am so
glad that you are with in
00:20:56.04\00:20:57.51
Sharing Time. I
actually met you at camp
00:20:57.66\00:20:58.63
meeting and when
you shared your love for
00:21:00.12\00:21:01.77
Jesus, what was I
telling you. You got to come
00:21:01.86\00:21:04.32
be here on Sharing
Time, and I am thankful that
00:21:04.50\00:21:06.50
you came all the
way from New York to
00:21:06.53\00:21:07.83
be here and you what
did something with the
00:21:07.86\00:21:10.59
whole group of kids
right and. Yes. Tell me,
00:21:10.70\00:21:13.23
tell me in fact I
think we have a picture,
00:21:13.78\00:21:14.94
let's put the picture
up real quick and this
00:21:15.16\00:21:17.26
is the picture of
your whole group and where
00:21:17.29\00:21:21.05
did they go and
what they did do.
00:21:21.08\00:21:22.24
We went on a
mission trip to Riverton,
00:21:22.37\00:21:23.65
Wyoming in
summer. And what was this
00:21:23.70\00:21:26.06
mission for
what was the purpose?
00:21:26.19\00:21:27.94
We went to go and
check out ourselves,
00:21:28.42\00:21:29.74
and the first week we
did community service and
00:21:29.77\00:21:32.79
the second week we
did a VBS for the kids.
00:21:32.94\00:21:34.88
And VBS is vacation
Bible school. Now what do you
00:21:35.17\00:21:37.54
mean community
service, what was that, what did
00:21:37.57\00:21:39.43
you do for that?
We went around and we
00:21:39.46\00:21:40.97
build a old Church
and we painted and we
00:21:41.05\00:21:43.93
made some houses for
some people that didn't
00:21:44.17\00:21:45.65
have any. And what
did they say were they
00:21:45.91\00:21:48.75
surprised that
you were doing that.
00:21:48.88\00:21:50.07
They were so happy
and they some of them with
00:21:50.10\00:21:51.23
surprises they are
filling the houses.
00:21:51.39\00:21:52.84
And what about,
you told me some lady
00:21:55.15\00:21:56.73
that you helped out
a lot, what was that
00:21:56.76\00:21:59.40
about. We build the
fence around her yard
00:21:59.51\00:22:01.61
to keep out the
coyotes. Coyotes! I don't know
00:22:01.72\00:22:04.32
about you but I'm not
comfortable with coyotes.
00:22:04.48\00:22:06.24
Do you think that
picket fence could do it.
00:22:07.12\00:22:08.95
Oh yeah it was big.
It was big, so was a good
00:22:09.13\00:22:11.26
one. Now the second
week when you're doing
00:22:11.32\00:22:13.17
the vocation Bible
school what did you
00:22:13.23\00:22:14.61
personally do. Well
there is was this one little
00:22:14.64\00:22:16.54
boy named Julian,
and we have this huge VBS
00:22:16.63\00:22:19.98
for all the kids, and
he was our trouble maker.
00:22:20.07\00:22:22.63
Oh dear and older
he? He was 6 years old.
00:22:22.97\00:22:25.30
Okay and what was that
like with somebody that
00:22:25.79\00:22:28.92
was really trying your patience.
00:22:28.99\00:22:30.12
He just wouldn't
listen, he wont do any
00:22:30.65\00:22:32.27
thing that he was
supposed to do and he was
00:22:32.33\00:22:34.13
always that running
around trying to knock
00:22:34.21\00:22:35.54
things over. But by
the end of the week he
00:22:35.68\00:22:37.75
decided to follow
Jesus and he calmed down
00:22:37.78\00:22:39.68
he was like
perfect. What was he telling
00:22:39.74\00:22:42.98
you before you,
before you left. He said
00:22:43.10\00:22:45.39
that he wanted to
meet me in heaven by
00:22:45.55\00:22:46.67
the life tree. 'Cause
you have being telling
00:22:46.73\00:22:49.99
about the tree of life
and he call that the life
00:22:50.03\00:22:51.70
tree that's so cute
and you know God's used
00:22:51.81\00:22:55.38
you to touch his
heart. Yes. And how did that
00:22:55.41\00:22:57.49
make you feel? It
was amazing to be used by
00:22:57.54\00:22:59.41
the God like that.
And what did you think
00:22:59.62\00:23:01.19
when you were driving
away, the trip is over
00:23:01.22\00:23:03.69
and you're on the
way home. What were you
00:23:03.91\00:23:05.10
thinking? That I
learned a lot about God
00:23:05.14\00:23:07.13
and I can really
shine for Jesus. And it's
00:23:07.24\00:23:09.79
something that you
encourage others to do?
00:23:09.98\00:23:11.34
Yes, anytime they
can. Now do you think it
00:23:11.37\00:23:13.59
also helped you
draw closure to Jesus?
00:23:13.69\00:23:15.98
Yes. It did that's
awesome. Well let me read
00:23:16.09\00:23:19.01

00:23:19.06\00:23:20.76
