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 always a joy to come into your homes.

And if you're ever in our area, please stop by and be a part of one of our services.

I'll promise you, we'll make you feel right at home.

But thanks so much for tuning in and thank you again for coming out today.

And I like to start with something funny.

And I heard about these two ladies that died and went to heaven.

Peter met them at the gate and said, you'll be happy here if you follow one main

rule. Don't step on a duck. If you step on a duck, they make a terrible racket. A week later,

one of the ladies accidentally stepped on a duck. Peter came up to her with this extremely

unattractive man, nothing appealing about him whatsoever, said,

is your punishment, you're going to be chained to this man. Seeing this, the other lady was very

careful. A month later, Peter came up to her with this incredibly handsome man, amazing physique,

looked like a movie star, chained them together. The lady was thrilled.

She said to him, I can't believe. I don't know what I did to deserve getting chained to you.

He said, I don't know what you did, ma'am, but I stepped on a duck.

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.
