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 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 this pastor.

He parked into no parking zone downtown in a large city.

He left a note on the windshield, said, officer, I've

circled this block ten times. If I don't park here, I'll miss my appointment. In big letters, he wrote,

forgive us our trespasses. He returned to his car and had a ticket. The officer had written him a note.

It said, sir, I've circled this block for 10 years.

If I don't give you a ticket, I could lose my job. In big letters, he wrote, lead us not into temptation.

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. I want to talk to you today about keep your crown.

When God breathed his life into you, he put a crown on your head.

The psalmist called it a crown of glory and honor.

This crown represents your authority.

It represents God's blessing and favor on your life.
