Amen and amen. Good morning. You can be seated. So glad you're here. Those of you online, so glad you're joining us. Two things, though, before we get started, the first of which is that this Tuesday, which is March 3rd, 7 p.m. Hawaii standard time, for those of you online,

will be live streaming the beginning of our all church prayer meeting. Now, for those of you

that are able to come, we would certainly encourage you to do so.

Boy, that saying, I think, of a church that prays together,

stays together.

A family that prays together, stays together.

A couple that prays together, stays together.

You can take that as far down the road as you want.

So we will live stream the beginning of it before we open it for prayer because I need to share

with you what the Lord ministered to me during the five months that I had with my wife before she went home to be

with the Lord, which by the way was two months ago, to the day, today. And it's out of Acts,

the 12th chapter, the first 17 verses, and it's a fascinating account, actually a detailed

account with specificity about how we now, like them then, can be surprised when God answers our prayer. I was just thinking about this. I think I mentioned

it for the prophecy update, first service. Boy, that guy at first service went really long again.

Anyway, but, you know, we pray, Lord, Maranatha, come quickly, Lord Jesus.

I wonder how many of us are going to be astonished when the trumpet sounds.

And God's like, well, I'm answering your prayer.

I thought you said, come.

I got came.

You asked, I answered.

I'm here.

And you're surprised.
