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.

Well, God bless you. It's a joy to come into your homes. We love you and we're believing for God's very best in your life. If you're ever in our

area, I hope you'll come out and see us. I promise you we'll make you feel right at home, but

thanks for tuning in today. I'd like to get started with something funny and I heard about this

minister that bought a new horse and he trained it to respond to praise the Lord, meaning giddy up, and hallelujah, meaning

woe. His friends were so impressed. Every time he said, praise the Lord, the horse would take

off running. He'd say, hallelujah, and it would quickly stop. Well, one day he was out riding,

and the horse got spooked and headed straight toward a cliff. The man yelled out, whoa, whoa, but he didn't respond.

He then remembered he taught it something different, but he couldn't remember what it was.

He yelled out, amen, glory, bless God, nothing happened.

Finally, right when the horse got to the edge of the cliff, he yelled out, hallelujah,

and the horse came to a screeching

halt. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, praise the Lord. All right, hold up your

Bibles. 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.
