Matthew 28:20. 07:29 Surely I am with you I am with you always 07:33 Surely I am with you 07:35 I am with you always 07:37 Surely I am with you Surely I am with you 07:41 Surely I am with you always 07:45 Surely I am with you I am with you always 07:49 Surely I am with you 07:51 I am with you always 07:53 Surely I am with you Surely I am with you 07:58 Surely I am with you always 08:02 Surely I am with you I am with you always 08:06 Surely I am with you 08:08 I am with you always 08:10 Surely I am with you Surely I am with you 08:14 Surely I am with you always 08:28 Jesus is always with you, 08:29 just like He was with Joseph. 08:31 He sees everything you do and He knows why you do it. 08:35 He lets us have problems sometimes 08:37 that we will learn to ask for His help. 08:40 And so we will see that He is able to help us. 08:43 If we are faithful to Jesus even in trouble 08:46 and trust in His power to save us, 08:49 we will be precious to Him, 08:51 as precious as gold. 08:54 "He knows the way that I take, 08:59 when He has tested me, 09:03 I will come forth as gold." 09:07 Job 23:10. 09:10 He knows the way that I take 09:14 He knows the way that I take 09:19 When He has tested me When He has tested me 09:23 I will come forth as gold 09:27 He knows the way that I take 09:31 He knows the way that I take 09:36 When He has tested me When He has tested me 09:40 I will come forth as gold 09:45 He knows the way that I take 09:49 He knows the way that I take 09:53 When He has tested me When He has tested me 09:57 I will come forth as gold 10:02 He knows the way that I take 10:06 He knows the way that I take 10:11 When He has tested me When He has tested me 10:15 I will come forth as gold 10:29 Can you be trusted? 10:32 What is trust? 10:34 If you are truthful and obedient, 10:36 people will learn to trust you. 10:38 That means that they will count on you 10:40 to be truthful and obedient. 10:42 You might think that it doesn't matter, 10:44 if you tell a little lie once in a while 10:46 or if you don't obey your parents, 10:48 if it's just a small thing they asked you to do. 10:52 But this verse may change your mind. 10:56 "Whoever can be trusted with very little 10:59 can also be trusted with much." 11:01 Luke 16:10. 11:05 Whoever can be trusted with very little 11:09 Can also be trusted with much 11:12 Whoever can be trusted with very little 11:16 Can also be trusted with much 11:19 Whoever can be trusted with very little 11:23 Can also be trusted with much 11:26 Whoever can be trusted with very little 11:30 Can also be trusted with much 11:33 Whoever can be trusted with very little 11:38 Can also be trusted with much 11:41 Whoever can be trusted with very little 11:45 Can also be trusted with much 11:48 Whoever can be trusted with very little 11:52 Can also be trusted with much 11:55 Whoever can be trusted with very little 11:59 Can also be trusted with much 12:14 Sometimes bad things happen to us. 12:16 And we may wonder why God has let us suffer. 12:20 The Apostle Paul had a lot of hard times in life. 12:23 But he learned that God can make good come, 12:25 even from the bad times. 12:27 Listen to what He said in Romans 8:28. 12:31 "In all things God works for the good 12:34 of those who love Him." 12:35 Romans 8:28. 12:37 In all things, in all things 12:41 God works for the good of those who love Him 12:45 In all things, in all things 12:48 God works for the good of those who love Him 12:52 In all things, in all things 12:55 God works for the good of those who love Him 12:59 In all things, in all things 13:03 God works for the good of those who love Him 13:06 In all things, in all things 13:10 God works for the good of those who love Him 13:14 In all things, in all things 13:17 God works for the good of those who love Him 13:21 In all things, in all things 13:24 God works for the good of those who love Him 13:28 In all things, in all things 13:31 God works for the good of those who love Him 13:52 Have you ever been alone in the dark? 13:55 It's kind of scary, isn't it? 13:57 But it's not nearly so scary 13:59 if your mom or dad are with you, is it? 14:02 Why is that? 14:04 Your parents love you 14:05 and they are there to take care of you. 14:07 And you'll feel safe when they are around. 14:10 God loves you even more than your parents do. 14:13 And He is always with you. 14:15 Remember when something scary happens to you 14:18 that God is with you 14:20 and you don't need to be afraid. 14:23 "The Lord is with me, I will not be afraid." 14:26 Psalm 118:6. 14:28 The Lord is with me 14:31 I will not be afraid, I will not be afraid 14:35 I will not be afraid The Lord is with me 14:40 I will not be afraid I will not be afraid 14:48 The Lord is with me 14:50 I will not be afraid, I will not be afraid 14:55 I will not be afraid, The Lord is with me 14:59 I will not be afraid I will not be afraid 15:07 The Lord is with me 15:09 I will not be afraid, I will not be afraid 15:14 I will not be afraid 15:16 The Lord is with me 15:19 I will not be afraid 15:21 I will not be afraid 15:26 The Lord is with me 15:28 I will not be afraid I will not be afraid, 15:33 I will not be afraid 15:36 The Lord is with me 15:38 I will not be afraid 15:40 I will not be afraid 15:58 In Psalm 95:6, David said, 16:01 "Come, let us bow down in worship, 16:04 let us kneel before the Lord our maker." 16:07 Why do you think he said we should bow down and kneel? 16:11 David was a king and to show respect for him, 16:15 the people of his kingdom probably bowed 16:17 when they came into his presence. 16:21 David said that we should bow before God in worship 16:24 because He is a great God, 16:26 and a great king above all gods. 16:29 That doesn't mean that we must always kneel 16:32 when we pray. 16:33 But we should always pray respectfully 16:36 because when we pray, 16:38 we are talking to the God of the universe. 16:41 "Come, let us bow down in worship, 16:44 let us kneel before the Lord our maker." 16:47 Psalm 95:6. 16:51 Come let us bow down in worship 16:58 Let us kneel before the Lord 17:02 Before the Lord our maker 17:06 Come let us bow down in worship 17:12 Let us kneel before the Lord our maker 17:20 Come let us bow down in worship 17:27 Let us kneel before the Lord 17:31 Before the Lord our maker 17:35 Come let us bow down in worship 17:41 Let us kneel before the Lord our maker 17:49 Come let us bow down in worship 17:56 Let us kneel before the Lord 18:00 Before the Lord our maker 18:04 Come let us bow down in worship 18:10 Let us kneel before the Lord our maker 18:33 Have you ever seen someone 18:35 who you thought was really special 18:37 and you wanted to talk to them, 18:39 but you didn't know what to say? 18:41 You may have asked your mother what you should say to them. 18:45 In the Bible, 18:46 God asks Moses to talk to someone 18:48 who is kind of special. 18:49 Do you know who that was? 18:52 God asks Moses to talk to Pharaoh, 18:54 the king of Egypt. 18:56 Moses kind of argued with God and said 18:58 that He wasn't a very good speaker. 19:01 God made a promise to Moses that He is made to us too. 19:06 If we speak to others about Jesus, 19:08 He will teach us what to say, just like He taught Moses. 19:13 "I will help you speak 19:14 and will teach you what to say." 19:16 Exodus 4:12. 19:18 I will help you speak 19:21 And will teach you what to say 19:25 I will help you speak 19:28 And will teach you what to say 19:32 I will help you speak 19:35 And will teach you what to say 19:39 I will help you speak 19:42 And will teach you what to say 19:47 I will help you speak 19:50 And will teach you what to say 19:54 I will help you speak 19:57 And will teach you what to say 20:01 I will help you speak 20:04 And will teach you what to say 20:08 I will help you speak 20:11 And will teach you what to say 20:16 I will help you speak 20:19 And will teach you what to say 20:23 I will help you speak 20:26 And will teach you what to say 20:40 The Book of Psalm has a lot of promises 20:42 about God's protection. 20:44 And here's another one, 20:46 the verses before this one 20:47 show that this promise is given to people, 20:50 who trust in God as their refuge and fortress. 20:53 A refuge and a fortress are both places of safety. 20:57 It's important to know that we are safe 20:59 because we belong to God. 21:01 And we are trusting Him to take care of us. 21:05 "No harm will befall you, 21:07 no disaster will come near your tent." 21:09 Psalm 91:10. 21:12 No harm will befall you No harm will befall you 21:16 No disaster will come near your tent 21:19 No disaster will come near your tent 21:21 No harm will befall you No harm will befall you 21:26 No disaster will come near your tent 21:28 No disaster will come near your tent 21:31 No harm will befall you No harm will befall you 21:35 No disaster will come near your tent 21:38 No disaster will come near your tent 21:40 No harm will befall you No harm will befall you 21:45 No disaster will come near your tent 21:47 No disaster will come near your tent 21:50 No harm will befall you No harm will befall you 21:54 No disaster will come near your tent 21:57 No disaster will come near your tent 21:59 No harm will befall you No harm will befall you 22:04 No disaster will come near your tent 22:06 No disaster will come near your tent 22:09 No harm will befall you No harm will befall you 22:13 No disaster will come near your tent 22:16 No disaster will come near your tent 22:18 No harm will befall you No harm will befall you 22:23 No disaster will come near your tent 22:25 No disaster will come near your tent 22:41 Our next verse is from Psalm 78. 22:44 This whole chapter is a history lesson. 22:46 It's the story of some of the things 22:48 God did for the children of Israel 22:50 when He delivered them from Egypt, 22:52 where they had being slaves. 22:54 If you had been with the children of Israel 22:56 when God parted the Red Sea and saved them 22:58 from the Egyptian army. 23:00 Do you think you would have learned to trust God, 23:02 and not be afraid the next time 23:04 something went wrong? 23:06 If God could part the Red Sea, 23:08 can He help you when you have problems? 23:11 He sure can. 23:14 "He guided them safely, so they were unafraid." 23:17 Psalm 78:53. 23:19 He guided them safely He guided them safely 23:27 He guided them safely 23:31 So they were unafraid 23:35 He guided them safely He guided them safely 23:43 He guided them safely 23:47 So they were unafraid 23:51 He guided them safely He guided them safely 23:59 He guided them safely 24:02 So they were unafraid 24:25 The Bible promises us that God will give us 24:28 everything we need, 24:30 maybe not everything we want. 24:33 I'm so glad, we have stories of people in the Bible, 24:36 who God took care of. 24:38 Knowing that God gave the children of Israel 24:41 food from heaven for 40 years, 24:43 and provided water out of a rock 24:45 for them to drink, 24:47 helps me believe 24:48 that anything is possible with God. 24:51 And that He will give me everything I need. 24:56 "My God will meet all your needs 24:58 according to His glorious riches 25:00 in Christ Jesus." 25:01 Philippians 4:19. 25:04 My God will meet all your needs 25:09 My God will meet all your needs 25:14 My God will meet all your needs 25:18 According to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus 25:23 My God will meet all your needs 25:28 My God will meet all your needs 25:33 My God will meet all your needs 25:37 According to His glorious riches 25:40 in Christ Jesus 25:43 My God will meet all your needs 25:47 My God will meet all your needs 25:52 My God will meet all your needs 25:56 According to His glorious riches 26:00 in Christ Jesus 26:02 My God will meet all your needs 26:07 My God will meet all your needs 26:12 My God will meet all your needs 26:16 According to His glorious riches 26:19 in Christ Jesus |
