I know you're here today because
you want to be here. And I see some of you have driven
probably an hour to get here. That should be the desire in
our heart when we come to God's house. I want to be there. And
a little snow isn't going to stop me. A little weather isn't
going to stop me. And if we get caught while we're in here and
you can't get home, we have plenty of beds over on the floor, 35
East Huron Street. Back near the coffee shop again,
there are hundreds of books. I also brought some of the four
known books. They're $5 a piece, these books,
a book I wrote a few years ago. You're welcome to get one of
those. All of the books are on sale
back there. And soon we'll have, we'll refresh those books with
some new Bibles where you can get Bibles here. Just other books. We'll be using
that as our little book room. Also, just a word about signing
up for next week. I hope you're going to be here
for the meet and greet. You're certainly welcome to stay
for that, but those of you who are visiting with us, you'd like
to just know more about what goes on here and over at the
other building and on Seneca Street and all the ministries
that are taking place, we want you to please stay. So I'll have
Ms. Pam, I'll have the sign-up sheet
in the back. How many of you are planning
to stay for that? Could I see your hand? That's
absolutely awesome. We're glad to, glad. Over 40
of you, 50 maybe. so we can plan on that. That's
wonderful. Back in the 1920s, there was
this couple who were celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary. The husband had told many people
that in 50 years of marriage, they had never had one fuss. And he was asked, the husband
was asked, what attributed 50 years of bliss without a fuss? He said, well, right after the
wedding ceremony, we got into the buggy and headed down the
road. The horse balked right in the middle of the road. My
bride got out of the buggy, looked at the horse right in the eyes
and said, that's once. We went on down the road and
the horse balked again. She got out of the buggy and
looked at the horse right straight in the eyes and said, that's
twice. She got back in the buggy, and
we started down the road for the third time, and the horse
balked and stopped in the middle of
the road. She got out of the buggy, looked at the horse square
in the eyes, drew out her pistol and said, that's three, and shot
the horse. Her husband said, you can't shoot
an animal like that. And she said, that's once. All right. What a marriage. Those of you who are, some of
you are giving over and above, and we found the rings in the
offering a few Sundays ago, just want you to know we appreciate
that. Have no idea what the value is, but you must have given all
you had, and so thank you for that. And I keep mentioning the
little lady that put $1.75 in the envelope and told me that
was all she had, but she felt led of the Lord. That's what
real giving is all about. So just want you to know that
we do notice and our ushers notice and the folks who count the dollars
notice your gifts. I love Ephesians chapter 1 and
have reveled in these passages, my, for 50 years. I remember
as a little boy the first time I heard my dad read from Ephesians
one and he read verse four. According as he hath chosen us
in him before the foundation of the world. There is so much
awesome things to be found in the word of God. But today we're
gonna look at verse three of Ephesians chapter one and Greg's
already read it. Blessed be the God and Father
of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual
blessings in heavenly places. All of us in here who are children
of God, we know God has blessed us. How many know God has blessed
you? Well, he has. You don't know
how much, but I hope you discover today how much as I talk about
it a bit. But who here knows how to bless
God? I mean, God blesses us, but the
Apostle Paul begins this verse by saying, bless God. You ever say that, that ever
come out? Bless the Lord, O my soul. and all that is within
me, bless his holy name. I hope you have already this
morning blessed the Lord. Driving over, I thought, though
your sins be as scarlet, I will wash them white as snow. And
I blessed the Lord. And I hope you continue to do
it while this service goes on. We bless the Lord in our singing
today. with our spirit. I hope when
you go home and turn on whatever's going to be on today, the Super Bowl, that you won't
get so wrapped up in that that you can't bless the Lord. I say every once in a while,
five years from now, you won't even remember who won the Super
Bowl, but Jesus Christ will still be on his throne, King of kings
and Lord of lords. I guess the question today is,
how can we bless God? When you consider, and I'm going
to modify this a little, you can bless God, and I'll tell
you how. But the question is, how can we bless the Lord when
he really needs nothing from us? Do you have that kind of
God? Somebody said, the Lord needs
you. Well, he said, if I was in trouble, I wouldn't ask you. The truth is, you need him. And
I need him. If I were hungry, I would not
tell you, for the world is mine and the fullness thereof. That's
what God says. You know, God has all sufficiency
within himself. You know, God's happy within
himself. He has all sufficiency within himself. Now, I realize
that I'm getting into waters to swim in today, but I hope
you'll tag along with me. He is, God is not dependent on
his creatures. I am so happy about that, that
God is not dependent on me. See, I know how many times I've
failed. Have you ever failed? What if
God were depending on you? He is infinitely blessed already,
and we cannot add to His blessedness. When He blesses us, He gives
us blessings we have never received before. When we bless him, we
cannot add one iota of increase to his absolute infinite self. Is that true? Well, a little
over your head? You can't add to God. He's self-sufficient,
all-sufficient, perfect, all by himself, in need of nothing. I hope that's your God. So there
is a sense in which we cannot bless him. He's too high. He's too holy. He's too great
for me to be really able to bless him in the sense in which he
has blessed me. Now you know that's true. If
you know anything's true, you know you can't bless him even
close to the way he's blessed you, right? So let me modify
it just a bit. How then do we bless God? And
then I'll get to the main part of the message. We bless God
in the expression of gratitude. We bless God with gratitude.
Bless the Lord. You ever feel that coming out
of you? Well, I'm sorry if you've ever missed that. Bless the Lord. Blessed be the God and Father
of our Lord Jesus Christ. Paul says, you see, Usually,
the apostle will work himself up to the end of the book before
he goes berserk and pray. Here he starts right off. Blessed
be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed
us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places, according
as he's chosen us in him before the foundation of the world,
having predestinated us. Boy, he takes off. We can bless God by praising
him. I believe we bless God this morning in our song service,
extolling him, desiring all honor for him. You do not praise God
unless you get this. All honor and praise and glory
belongs to him. None of it belongs to you or
I. Zip, zero. Praise him in your speech. Speak
to his glory. Praise unto Jehovah. When you
say hallelujah, you know what you're saying? Hallel's unto
Jehovah, which is hallelujah, interpreted praise unto God. That's what it means. It's all
right to say hallelujah. It means praise unto God. It's
all right to say that out loud when you're in God's house or
when we're in song service. Praise unto Jehovah. We feel
that in our souls. Another way to bless God, in
the utterance of a sin, I mean by that to say amen. When I'm
preaching, here's a way you can bless God. I hope you do it a
lot. Amen. Amen. After hearing how great
He is, how glorious He is, how happy He is, how blessed we are
in Him, the people say, we bless the Lord. We bless the Lord in this way.
Let Him be great. Let Him be glorious. He is blessed
beyond our conception. to know the love of Christ which
passes knowledge. We need to get into it to bless
the Lord. You've been in church and never
blessed the Lord? I mean, have you been in churches where you
know, oh Lord, you were praying for deliverance from the service? When we say he's high and holy
and righteous, he's sovereign. He is the mighty God. We say
amen and hallelujah. Another way to bless God is in
spreading his kingdom. You know what? I so bad want
you to come to know Christ today. Because in doing so, we will
have blessed God. He uses us as instruments. Do you know that there is rejoicing
in heaven among the angels over one sinner that repents? Would
you like to excite heaven today? Get saved! Trust Christ! Believe on the
Lord Jesus Christ! And they'll be shouting in the
glory land. Do you have a burden for anyone? Do you have a desire to see them
saved? Do you have a desire to see God's
kingdom increase? We can, by his grace, do all
of this, and thus we're blessing God. It truly makes heaven gladder
and makes joy in the presence of angels when men repent and
come to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Here's another way we can bless
God. Be good to his kids. Be good to God's children. Don't
you love to be good to God's children? Don't you know this? Let me tell you, if you're down
and depressed, be good to God's children. It'll help lift you.
It will help lift you. When they're sick, visit them. You know, this week, I don't,
time is fleeting, but I got to visit a couple of folks in the
hospital this past week, and it was such a joy to me, and
they were shocked that I walked in their room. And I could tell,
and then I got emails and thank yous. God's people need to be
good to one another. Bless somebody. When they're
poor, help them out financially. When they're being persecuted,
stand by their side. When they're depressed, be there.
You and I have a very difficult time blessing the head, but we
can bless the feet really good. You know what I mean? You ever
had your feet rubbed? It'll do something for headaches.
Well, Jesus is the head, God is the head. Bless the feet,
that's us. And it'll affect the head, I'm
sure of that. In fact, the scripture says this,
inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my
brethren, you've done it unto me. Think about that. If they're naked, clothe them.
If they're sick, you visit them. If they're hungry, you feed them.
You do it in respect to God, and you bless God. And that's
what we do over at 35 East Run. We're blessing God. We're not
just feeding the drug addict, clothing the drug addict. Listen,
this is a whole thing of blessing God, because we believe this. It's all about God. It's all
about men and women getting their lives back in Jesus Christ. And we show love to them. Don't
you wish you had more money? By the way, did anybody win the
lottery last night? Okay. I know we're sitting right
in here today. There's several of you have those
tickets. You might as well throw them away. Nobody won. But anyway,
do you ever think like this? What you could do with $380 million? It doesn't mean you'll do it,
because you may get it and it may ruin you. But do you ever
think this way? I wish I had more money, so I
could buy more houses on Seneca Street, or Fairgrove, or, you
know, I could do more. You ever think that way? I've
thought that way. Lord, have you ever thought this
way? I wish I could praise Him more.
Have you ever really sung the song, oh, for a thousand tongues
to sing my great Redeemer's praise? Have you ever wished that our
praise service wouldn't end? Oh, you should have been here
on Wednesday night. If you thought this was good, Wednesday night
was gooder. We had a hallelujah time here
on Wednesday night. Now let me tell you this, this
is the meat of what I want to say. You will never bless God
aright until you come to understand aright. Blessed be the God and
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who hath blessed us with all
spiritual blessings. Notice this. hath blessed us." What do you think's in God's
storehouse you haven't picked up yet? What do you think God has for
you that you, by faith, haven't gone and got? It didn't say, you know, the
verse doesn't say, we hope he will, or he's going to someday. It says he already has. You know,
I've believed that for years, but I've only gotten into it
kind of this past week, in the past few weeks. They're all bought
and paid for. All my blessings are already
bought and paid for. You're not gonna be blessed.
Child of God, you are blessed. You're blessed right now. You're blessed right where you're
sitting. God has already blessed you.
All of his covenant blessings are in the storehouse. Think
about that. We are his workmanship, created
in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained
that we should walk in them. God's got some good things for
you. Pick them up. Go by the storehouse. He's got
a bigger storehouse than us. FedEx and your names on all the
packages say I don't know about that pastor I you know I'm saved
hallelujah I've lived in that kind of stuff all my life I missed
out I wish I'd had a pastor who said you're already blessed Go
dream your dreams. They'll come true. If you have
a dream, God's put it on your heart. God's given you the dream.
Go out there and get it. Amen. Well, you know, I don't want
to hear that religious stuff. Well, hallelujah. You know, I
probably waited too long. You have, but not too late. You've waited too long, but not
too late. All heavenly things are yours. Notice what the verse says. He
has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places. You got blessed before the foundation
of the world. Oh. Somebody was planning on you
before there was a world. God doesn't do anything separate
and apart from his purpose. God is on purpose. He is a purpose-driven God. Think about this. This is great
to me. I'm blessed. You know, it's a
good thing to say I am blessed. I have been blessed. I've been
blessed all the way along. I didn't know how blessed I was. But his eyes on the sparrow and
he watches over me. He never took his eyes off me. Put the microscope to that little
word, all. He has given them all to us. We didn't earn a one of them.
That's called amazing grace. You know all that stuff that's
in the storehouse? You didn't earn it. But you can
pick it up by faith. I believe that. I haven't always
been there, but I'm there now. He's blessed us with all spiritual
blessings. He worked this thing out at home
before the world was. And now he's sending us blessings. No spiritual blessing comes to
any man by chance. You didn't get saved by chance.
You didn't get saved through luck. Listen, listen to me well. This is Bible, this is true,
and you cannot take the Bible and show me where this is not
true. God is a God of purpose. He has ordained blessings for
you, and you're gonna get every one of them. Now, you may have
to go through Wales Valley University to get them. You may have to
go down into Lodi Bar for a little visit down there before you sit
at the king's table. But I'm telling you, blessings
are headed your way because he has already, in heavenly places,
blessed us according to his purpose. And he is there sovereignly bringing
his purpose to pass. He has ordained blessings that
are yours. I don't care if you're eight
or 85, don't give up, they're there. In fact, the very fact
that you're alive, I was thinking about this last night. Miss Pam
is alive. after being dead for 10, for
15 minutes. Miss Pam is alive. You're not
going to convince me that God doesn't have a purpose for that.
You're just not going to convince me. And all of that was ordained. And not only that, but her death
and life was ordained for me too. I'm a new guy. I believe in miracles. I saw a miracle. I lived it,
I witnessed it. Now I'm glad he blessed her and me
with her. You know, if God has given you
a clear brain and you're quick and sharp, think of him. That
was a gift from God. Some of us are dumber than rocks. You know, Thank God for a clear
brain. You know, some of you out there
are using drugs and God's given you a great brain. I am positive
that many, I told our guys this, I believe some of the wittiest,
brainiest people come through that mission. They're in disguise. They don't know they've been
blessed. So they're out there injecting something, putting
something up their nose, sticking something in their arm, and they're
dull, but wait a minute, the hound of heaven will get after
you because God has chose you from the foundation of the world
and the spirit of God will find you because God has ordained
it. And then what you will do is
you will use your gifts to the glory and honor of God when you
find out, hey, this was all planned for me before the foundation
of the world. If God's given you a fluent tongue,
eloquent, speak for him. He doesn't give you gifts without
a purpose. If you're a great writer, write
to the glory of God. If you're a great cook, cook
to the glory of God and have me over. and we'll praise God together. Your election came according
to his purpose. This brings tremendous assurance
to me. You know, once I was lost, but
now I'm found. But I'm gonna tell you this,
in this walk through life, if you don't discover some things,
really what has changed my life here in my 70th year is just
this. God's amazing grace. I thought I preached it. I thought I was a great person,
but I'm finding I haven't even touched the hem of the garment
of how good God is to me. You know, I think every day,
I'm telling you, I have very little or zero depression. And
every once in a while, Pam and I get talking about dying, and
I think to myself, I got a good 10 years. Because I'm not through,
I know I'm not through because God's still blessing me. The
women and children shelter, we need $5 million. I know we're
gonna get that. God's already given that to us. We're just waiting for some of
you millionaires sitting out there to write you a check for
one or two million. You know God's already ordained
those folks too. I'm just searching them out.
I'm out to find them. And you know what? When they
write the check, they'll be glad they did. They'll be just happy
as they can be. They'll want to do it. Maybe
we'll name a building after them. I don't really need my name on
a building because it's all going to burn up one day anyway and
I'm going home, right? But that's the way God will do
it. I like to think about what God
has out there. New stuff. New and exciting stuff. Do you have a strong faith? Do you have burning zeal? Do
you have vehement love? God's given them to you for a
purpose. Whatever gift you have, God has
given them to you on purpose, for a purpose. That's right. I know that's true. And so we
glorify God. All spiritual blessings. You
know, they hang together on a cluster. You've got them. They're yours
and they're in a cluster. All spiritual blessings. Well,
what does that mean? It means he has blessed us with
all things that are for our good. Now, how can a man be miserable
if you really understand this? Remember in the beginning I said,
if you don't really understand this and get this, you're gonna
experience a lot of misery. that God has ordained and is
working all things for your good. Now, how can you be miserable?
How can you be miserable if God is working everything for your
good and His glory and has already got all the blessings bought
and paid for They're in a cluster for you. Some of you sitting
out there, and you're like this. I'm having a hard time convincing
you, aren't I? You're going like, I don't think so. I mean, I'm
kind of an off and on type Christian. I do have a couple of dreams,
but I think it's too late. I mean, you're talking to yourself.
That's devil talk. That's not Bible talk. It's all
mine. You ought to be a miser like
this. You know, get in your little room of God's blessings and like
in a room of gold coins and go, they're all mine. God's blessings
are all mine. Looking for a man? Looking for a lady? Looking for
marriage? You know marriage is of God.
Somehow that must be one of the blessings in the cluster. Are
you lonely? God doesn't want you to be lonely.
So he must have something for you. Some of you have given up,
given up on life. That's not the way it should
be. God doesn't want you to go to heaven a pauper, miserable. He has a warehouse full of blessing
for you. No good thing will the Lord withhold from you. Are you getting this or no? I
hope you are. I hope you're sitting there thinking,
because this church only moves forward as we move forward in
faith and believe what God said. I mean, if you just want, if
you just, You know, can't wrap your head around this. Let me
give you a few little things about, just personal things. You know, over the last, I don't
know, 20 years, I went in debt $600,000. You know why I believe,
what I believe? I believed, I actually believed
this, that God wanted us to have a community and actually turn
a city upside down. I can remember when you couldn't
walk down Seneca Street without getting shot at. So, Miss Pam and I went in debt,
over $600,000. I'm not advising anybody, I'm
just saying this. I believe that God wanted us to have a community.
And it wasn't just getting drug addicts in and feed, clothe,
and shelter, but actually people getting their life back. Fifteen years ago, I claimed
this building. I believed we were going to get
it. I believed we were going to get it. I knew we were going
to get it. I knew it was in the storehouse.
I just hadn't got it yet. But I kept on believing. And
before too long, some of you started believing too. I believe that we could have
church in here and not be in deep debt. We have no debt as
far as the church is concerned. Our baptistry, by the way, is
coming Wednesday. It'll be here Wednesday. I believe that. And let me just say this as far
as debt before you start thinking about borrowing money. God sent
people to pay off my debt. People paid off my debt. Ms.
Pam and I owe right now $12,000 and we're out of debt. We owe
$12,000 and we're completely out of debt. Isn't that something? All of
those things were in God's storehouse. And believer, in God's storehouse,
all things are yours. What is it you're dreaming? Why
does the devil keep you down by telling you you're too old,
you've done too much, you're never gonna make it? By the way,
this is on my heart, so I'm just gonna, Dwayne, is that you back
there with your back to me? I'm gonna tell you, in God's
storehouse, there is a number one hit song waiting for you.
Use your gift. Amen. Now I don't prophesy much
like that, but it kept me awake last night, so I said it's time
to tell him. Now don't let it go to your head,
just get busy and write it. Just get busy and do it. I know
some of you are holding back because you don't believe this.
It's already yours. Why do you keep worrying about
it and thinking about it? And someday I'm going to, one
of these days I'm going to, and there are many others in here
who have stories much like mine. They're ours. You know, it's
impossible to please God without faith. You know, your biggest
problem is trusting God. If you don't trust God, nothing
is impossible. Faith is the victory. Am I right
about that? Ask Brother Sanders, he knows
that. Faith is the victory. Trust God, believe God, and watch
God. Miraculous things will happen
in your life. People have said to me for years, do you believe
in miracles? Absolutely, our God is a God
of miracles. What is it you need? You know,
the truth is, I have seen people heal from cancer. That's the
truth. I do believe that passage. Is
there any sick among you? And I've been thinking about,
we have several here with cancer in this church. Is God able? Absolutely, God is able. Can
God remove the tumors? He can. God is able to do that. Some of you are going to go home
and say, you know what? Pastor Clark has gone totally
charismatic. He's gone. He's off the charts. No. I just believe the Bible, that
all blessings are ours. And you know, for the next 20,
30 years, I plan on claiming them. Some of you didn't get
that. I plan on claiming them. You
see, we're not through here. It's not now we got a building
and we lay down. Oh, no. Do you think this is
all God has? That this is all God's going
to do? No way possible. No, no, no possible. You know, one of my favorite
songs the Gaithers sing, It's entitled, I Then Shall Live.
And Gloria Gaither wrote the words. And I'm gonna read them
to you in closing. I then shall live as one who's
been forgiven. I'll walk with joy to know my
debts are paid. I know my name is clear before
my father. I am his child and I am not afraid. So greatly pardoned, I'll forgive
my brother. The law of love I gladly will
obey. I then shall live as one who's
learned compassion. I've been so loved that I'll
risk loving too. I know how fear builds walls
instead of bridges. I'll dare to see another's point
of view. And when relationship demands
commitment, then I'll be there to care and follow through. Your
kingdom come around and through and in me. Your power and glory,
let them shine through me. Your hallowed name, oh may I
bear with honor. And may your living kingdom come
in me. The bread of life, oh, may I
share with honor, and may you feed a hungry world through me.
Amen and amen and amen. Amen. Matt is helping me write this
book called The Poverty Pimp. Many of you know that years ago,
the city council called me The Poverty Pimp, and I said, one
of these days I'm gonna write a book. Well, I know God has
churned that up inside of me, and I think we're on chapter
four, right? Chapter four of that book. And it's all about this, really,
the God of purpose. when you began to see, we start
off the book by telling when I was a little kid, four years
old, and watching God's purpose. Once you see this God of purpose,
and that you're on purpose, for a purpose, that God has saved
you, and you began to enter in, that you've been blessed. You're
already blessed. Say, yeah, but pastor, I used
heroin for 20 years. You're already blessed. Don't
you think God saw you all through? Why do you think you're still
alive? If you're not dead, God's got
a purpose for you. You're not at the end. Some of
you have already wrote the end. And you live like that. God's
got a reason and a purpose. Amen. I hope you begin to live
this way. Tomorrow is going to be an exciting
day. It really is because we're going to have a foot of snow.
But it's going to be an exciting day. You know, God sent this
snow for a purpose. You may get trapped somewhere
and somebody digging you out of the ditch who needs to hear
your story. Right? Because God's got a purpose.
You'll meet somebody tomorrow on purpose for a purpose. You
know, I got here early today and on purpose. Sometimes I get
here a little late so I can keep everything on my mind and not
talk nearly as much. But I got to go around, shake
hands a little bit just to see if you're smiling and talk with
you. You know, I truly do love people. I love to talk to people. I love
to see where they are. I was telling the church, Rob,
I was telling the church about being in court with you the other
day and how many people I got to meet. I was telling the Wednesday
night service about how many people I got to meet at court.
You know, you can go in places where it's not real comfortable
and God send people in there you're supposed to talk to. So
I got to talk to this little girl who had two diamonds right
here. She was sitting there scared to death. The judge was going
to send her to jail. I got to talk to this big, tall
kid that was about 6'5", a young guy. Who knows? I do know God hooks us up, right? No accidents. God is a God of
purpose. So today, And you know, don't
get too excited. This football game's already
been decided. Just lay back and relax and eat
some pizza. Somebody's gonna win that game, it's all taken
care of already. Say, pastor, you don't believe
that. Yes, I do. But I'm still gonna watch it and I'm gonna
eat pizza too or something. We're gonna have a party, right?
What is it? Oh, we're gonna eat wings, barbecued
wings at our party. That's even better. and some
ranch dressing and celery and wow. I want you to enjoy life and
there's no reason why we can't. It's all ours. The blessings
are ours. Say, well, you know, we're just
not, you know. Go to the Lord. Seek his face. Tell him he promised. He likes
you to remind him. Lord, you promised. That's what
I say to the Lord. You know you promised me. You
promised. That's what the kids used to
do. I remember on one occasion, Shannon was... Shannon was going
somewhere. Anyway, she was gonna need some
money. And I said, go get it out of
my wallet. And she said, I already have
I knew you was gonna give it to me. Well, let me tell you
this. You know, I got first it kind
of ticked me off a little bit. But but then I got to thinking
about it. You know what? Our Heavenly Father is just that
way. Do you know he's already given
it to you? Go get it. He's not going to deny you any
good thing. It's wonderful to know the Lord.
And those of you who are without the Lord, it's going to be a
tough life. I would urge you to trust Jesus
Christ today. Say, well, I know he'll save
me. You said he's already. That's not your business. Right
now, your business is to bow at the feet of Jesus Christ and
trust Jesus Christ. That's your business. And once you trust Jesus Christ,
you can know, hey, everything's working for your good. One of
the things I think that hinders lost people, and I'm through,
people that are not Christian, is that we Christians are way
too smug. People actually think they can
be happier in the crack house than in the church house. You
know what ought to happen in here? I have declared this the
year of smile. I've determined I'm going to
smile. I'm going to smile more. I'm going to smile When I see
somebody depressed, I'm really going to show those ivories.
I'm going to smile more. I'm going to point people to
Christ. I'm going to say there's victory in Jesus. I want people
to want what I have. You know, you don't approach
people this way. You don't want to get saved, do you? Be happy
like me. I'm not going to hell. No, we
ought to have a little heaven on the way to heaven, right?
There ought to be a hallelujah and a dance in our step. This
is the day the Lord's made all rejoice and be glad in it. And
it's 17 after and the snow is supposed to get worse. So we're
going to stand and sing. I would say this to you, come
to Christ just as you are. Trust Christ. You want to confess
Christ today? I urge you to do it. You can
stand right here and we'll chat with you.
