Amen and amen. How you guys doing tonight? All right. Well then you can be seated.

So glad you here. Really looking forward to what the Lord has for us tonight. Those of you joining us online,

some of you are in later time zones and it's early morning, so good morning.

But we're going to partake together of the communion tables. So those of you online,

Nothing is, let me rephrase that.

Everything is going perfectly according to God's preordained plan.

Never imagine that God is in heaven. ordained plan.

Never imagine that God is in heaven going, did they eat from the tree that I told them not
