Good morning and welcome to our first service on Sunday morning. We have two services, the first

of which is our weekly Bible prophecy update. And second service is actually our sermon, a verse

by verse study through God's Word. And we are currently going through the amazing book of Hebrews.

And our text today is going to be chapter 11 verses 4 through 6

and we're going to look at what pleases God but in so doing we're also going to answer

the question of what happens when we actually do please God.

That's going to be live streamed at 1115 AM Hawaii time.

We'd encourage you to join with us at that time.

Also for those of you that are on YouTube or Facebook,

we would really encourage you to go directly

to J.D.Farag.org for the uncensored, uninterrupted entirety of the update today.

So you can do that at this time if you wish. All right, let's get to it. Boy, I, you're

going to have to bear with me today.

I want to talk with you about what God is doing, but I also want to hear from you about what God

is doing.

I'll explain more on that at the end, but for now, I sense that after spending

some time seeking the Lord, this was the direction that he would have me to go, namely, that of how it is that everything that's happening in the world today is meant for evil,

but God is meaning it for good. This is Genesis 50, my favorite verse in all the Bible, along with all my

other favorite verses in all the Bible. But this one in particularly, for today anyway.

Joseph is speaking to his brothers. It's recorded for us there in Genesis 50, 20, and he says to his brothers,

but as for you, you meant evil against me, but God, oh, I love those two words. I love those two words. Did I tell you I love those two words? Do you know

why I love those two words? And so do you, I'm sure, because those two words change everything.
