Hi, this is Joel in Victoria.

Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry.

If you enjoyed 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.

For God bless you, it's great to be with you today and I hope you'll stay connected with

us during the week through our daily podcast, our YouTube channel, social media and you can

come visit us in person.

We'd love to have you be a part of one of our services.

But I'd like to start with something funny and I heard about this past room.

He bought a new horse.

He trained it to respond to praise the Lord, meaning giddy up and hallelujah, meaning

woe.

Every time he said praise the Lord, the horse took off running.

When he said hallelujah, it would quickly stop.

One day he's out riding, the horse got spooked, took off run and straight toward the clear,

blown full blast.

In the panic he couldn't remember what he had taught the horse.

He said bless God, glory, amen, nothing happened.

At the last moment he shouted hallelujah and the horse came to a screeching halt just inches

before the edge of the cliff.

He breathed, sigh of relief and said praise the Lord.

Say it like you mean it.
