| 0:00.0 | Welcome back friends, it is time for the morning mindset. We are here for one reason and |
| 0:08.4 | one reason only that is to get our minds aligned with the truth of God for this day. We want |
| 0:15.3 | to move forward thinking his thoughts so that we can act as he would have us act. That's |
| 0:21.8 | the simple purpose of the morning mindset every day. Welcome. I'm glad that you're here. |
| 0:27.1 | Before we move forward, I want to remind you about a ministry that's attached to the morning |
| 0:31.5 | mindset called not a needy person. This is an amazing opportunity for those of you have |
| 0:37.1 | needs to submit those needs for consideration and for those of you who have the means to |
| 0:42.6 | help with needs to come to view all of the needs that have been vetted and verified and |
| 0:50.0 | consider prayerfully giving to meet those needs. I don't know anything else like it. It's |
| 0:54.9 | just an amazing opportunity the Lord has given us to be a conduit of his blessing to those |

| 1:28.8 | concerned about offending God. He really is the one that we should be concerned about. In |
| 1:35.5 | Proverbs, chapter 20, we're told in four different verses that cheating or deceit is very offensive |
| 1:43.3 | to God. Let's read these verses. I'm just going to read them back to back to back to back and |
| 1:47.6 | then come back. I will talk about them. Chapter 20 verse number 10 says, unequal weights and unequal |
| 1:54.6 | measures are both alike and abomination to the Lord. Verse 14, bad, bad says the buyer, |
| 2:04.0 | but when he goes away, then he boasts. Verse 70, bread gained by deceit is sweet to a man, |
| 2:11.5 | but afterward his mouth will be full of gravel. And then verse 23, unequal weights |
