Hi, this is Joel and Victoria.

Thanks so much for listening to the podcast, and thanks for supporting the ministry.

We believe you're going to have an awesome 2024, healthy, productive, and favor-filled.

God bless you today and enjoy the message.

God bless you.

It is always a joy to come into your home, and we come with good news each week. We know that God is on your side. When you seek him, you know, you'll find him, and God rewards the people that seek after him. So thanks for tuning in. If you're ever in our area, I hope you'll stop by, be a part of one of our services. I promise you this will make you feel right at home. But thanks so much for tuning in. Thanks for coming out. I like to get started with something funny each week. And, of course, these are just jokes. Don't be offended by them. But I heard about this burglar that broke into a home one night. And just as he grabbed the stereo, he heard a voice saying, Jesus is watching you. He froze in his tracks. And as he shined his flashlight around the room, he came across a parrot in the corner. He was kind of angry. He said, did you say that? The parrot said, yes, I'm just trying to warn you. He said, warn me. What are you talking about? Who are you? The parrot said, my name is Moses.

He laughed and he said, what kind of crazy people would name a parrot Moses? The parrot replied,

the same kind of people that would name a 150-pound Rotweiler, Jesus. All right, hold up your

Bible. 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. We've been talking about how God is the potter and we are the clay. And we have to work with God and let him make us and mold us. And one of the ways God does this is by allowing us to be in situations where

we're uncomfortable, situations where we're going to be tested. And we may not like it, but God

uses everything that comes into our lives. Every traffic jam, every person that's hard to get

along with, every time things don't go our way,

we need to remind ourselves, this is only a test. And I wouldn't be here unless I needed it.
