| 0:07.0 | Well, thank you for joining me today on enjoying everyday life. I'm talking about the power |
| 0:21.0 | that is in the Word of God and really encouraging people to not just read their Bible but study the Bible. |
| 0:30.0 | Take time to get to know the Word and the more you know the Word, the more you're going to know God. |
| 0:36.0 | The more you know Him, the happier you're going to be. |
| 0:39.0 | And the more you're going to recognize when Satan is trying to operate in your life, |
| 0:44.0 | yes, I said Satan, he is real, there is a devil, there are evil spirits, there is wickedness and evil in the world. |
