Hi, this is Joel and Victoria. Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry.

If you enjoy today's message, why don't you be a blessing and share it with a friend.

We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in your life.

Hey, God bless you. It's great to be with you today and I hope you'll stay connected with us during the week through our daily podcast, our

YouTube channel, social media, and you can come visit us in person. I'd love to have you be a part

of one of our services. But I'd like to start with something funny and I heard about this cat

and mouse that died on the same day and went to heaven. After a few weeks, Peter saw the mouse and asked how he liked it.

He said, oh, it's great, but it's so big I wish I could get a pair of roller skates.

Peter said, no problem. Got him some skates. A few weeks later, Peter saw the cat and ask him how he liked it.

He said, oh, it's fantastic. And just when I thought it couldn't get any better,

I discovered the Meals on Wheels. Say it like you mean it. This is my Bible. I am what it says I am.

I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do. Today, I will be taught the word of God.

I boldly confess, my mind is alert, my heart is

receptive, I will never be the same. In Jesus' name. God bless you. I want to talk to you today

about an atmosphere of praise. We're all creating an atmosphere around us by what we're thinking, what we're

saying, our attitude. It's easy to go around negative. Look at this doctor's report. This traffic

is bad. These people did me wrong. Whatever you're sending out, you're going to draw in.

If you're creating a negative atmosphere, that's going to attract discouragement,

defeat, bad breaks.

But when you create an atmosphere of praise, when you're always thanking God for what he's done,

you get up in the morning, Lord, thank you that I'm alive today.

Thank you for my beautiful children. Thank you that goodness and mercy are following me. Thank you that I'm alive today. Thank you for my beautiful children. Thank you
