0:00.0	What's up? What's up? Incredible loved and valued people. My name is MMA and I love you so deeply. God loves you so deeply. Welcome to the compelled podcast. I want to share some verses over you guys today that have been
0:23.6	anthems in my soul for years now. Psalm 143 verses 8 through 10, let this morning bring me word
0:33.1	of your unfailing love. In this moment, whether you're listening in the morning or in the evening or in the noon time,
0:40.2	let this moment, God, bring us word of your unfailing love, for we put our trust in you.
0:47.4	Show us the way that we should go, for to you we entrust our life.
0:52.3	Rescue us from our enemies, God, for we hide ourselves in you. Teach us to do
0:57.4	your will, for you are our God. And may your good spirit lead us on level ground. It is so powerful
1:05.0	to pray the word. Guys, I'm so glad that you're here. We are coming to a time of the year where people are graduating, people are moving on to a new season.
1:16.5	And so if you are graduating high school, if you are graduating college, or if you are just navigating a new season moving into the summer, I just, well, I want this to be an encouragement to you as you are

1:46.0	learned, things that God has so tenderly taught me and led me through as I have walked into
1:52.3	new routines, new rhythms, new day to days. So I'm really excited to show these with you. The first
1:58.3	encouragement that I want to share with you as you are stepping into a new
2:01.6	season, stepping into change, is to follow the Lord's lead, yield to his spirit, even whenever
2:11.7	it means that you have to let go of what you thought would be, even whenever it's not the timeline that you thought it would be.
2:20.3	I've been meditating on this just from the passage in Numbers 9 versus 15 through 13.
2:26.0	So in Numbers 9, it's whenever the Israelites are in the wilderness.
2:29.9	And so in this particular place, there would be this large cloud and it would hover over the tabernacle.
2:38.0	And whenever it hovered over the tabernacle, that would mean that the Israelites would stay in camped.
2:43.5	They would be in that place because that was where the Lord was.
