Hello friend Chaplain Terry Warner here.
00:00:27.057 --> 00:00:30.609
This podcast is titled Encouragement.
00:00:30.609 --> 00:00:36.872
It's Season 4, Episode 48, S4E48.
00:00:36.872 --> 00:00:41.710
It will air on November, the 25th 2024.
00:00:41.710 --> 00:00:50.369
And, like I always say, at 1 in the morning, if you want to get up and get to be the first I want to talk a little bit about encouragement.
00:00:51.112 --> 00:00:57.609
We're coming into the holidays and I would urge you to show restraint on your spending.
00:00:57.609 --> 00:01:19.754
You know, as a father of four adopted children, we always wanted to give them everything they didn't have and in some ways that wasn't a good thing to do, Because they need to learn responsibility and value of things, not just packages or gifts.
00:01:19.754 --> 00:01:22.387
Your children need time.
00:01:22.387 --> 00:01:26.093
They need time with you, they need devotion with you, they need love with you.
00:01:26.093 --> 00:01:28.786
They need love from you, they need assurance from you.
00:01:28.786 --> 00:01:34.522
So I'm going to give you a few scriptures today on encouragement, and I just pray.
00:01:34.522 --> 00:01:39.388
The following Bible verses will encourage you and remind you of the hope we have in Christ.
00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:44.588
We're coming up on Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving we need to give thanks.
00:01:44.588 --> 00:01:50.349
So here we go John 16, verse 33.
00:01:50.349 --> 00:01:56.090
In the world you will have tribulation, but take heart, I have overcome the world.
00:01:56.090 --> 00:01:59.867
No lie, Tribulation is an understatement.
00:01:59.867 --> 00:02:02.466
Isaiah 41, 10.
00:02:02.466 --> 00:02:06.108
So do not fear, for I am with you.
00:02:06.108 --> 00:02:09.049
Do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
00:02:09.049 --> 00:02:11.507
I will strengthen you and help you.
00:02:11.507 --> 00:02:14.669
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
00:02:14.669 --> 00:02:18.950
God has not brought you this far to watch you fail.
00:02:18.950 --> 00:02:24.293
This is not your day or year or month or week of failure.
00:02:24.293 --> 00:02:55.245
Philippians 4, 6 and 7 about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God, and the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
00:02:55.245 --> 00:03:09.747
I find what I do is I write down a list of things I need or things I desire, make sure they agree with God and His Word, Do my best to find that being fulfilled in the Bible and pray that verse to back it up.
00:03:09.747 --> 00:03:25.969
But most of all, I just get before the Lord and say Lord, this is what's coming out of my heart, not out of my mind, not out of my wants, not out of my needs, not out of anything else, just out of your Word, just out of my love for you.
00:03:25.969 --> 00:03:42.110
The kingdom of God is inside me and I know, if I search the kingdom of God with all my heart, all these things will be added unto me Psalm 34, 4, 5, and verse 8.
00:03:42.110 --> 00:03:47.008
I sought the Lord and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears.
00:03:47.008 --> 00:03:51.848
Those who look to Him are radiant and their faces shall never be ashamed.
00:03:51.848 --> 00:03:55.028
Oh, taste and see that the Lord, he is good.
00:03:55.028 --> 00:03:58.248
Blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him.
00:03:58.248 --> 00:04:11.200
If you can find on YouTube the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir, they sing Psalm 34.
00:04:11.200 --> 00:04:12.002
Really a good music piece to listen to.
00:04:12.022 --> 00:04:13.085
Joshua 1.9.
00:04:13.085 --> 00:04:23.266
Have I not commanded you be strong and courageous, Do not be frightened and do not be dismayed, For the Lord, your God, is with you wherever you go.
00:04:23.266 --> 00:04:27.495
Matthew 6, 31-34.
00:04:27.495 --> 00:04:48.124
So do not worry saying what shall we eat or what shall we drink or what shall we wear, For the pagans run after all these things, and your Heavenly Father knows that you need them, but seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
00:04:48.124 --> 00:04:53.461
Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.
00:04:53.461 --> 00:04:55.889
Each day has enough of its own trouble.
00:04:55.889 --> 00:05:01.305
It says do not worry or amplified anxious.
00:05:01.305 --> 00:05:05.827
Take anxious thought on what are we going to eat, what are we going to drink, what are we going to wear?
00:05:05.827 --> 00:05:08.065
The Lord will provide it.
00:05:08.065 --> 00:05:14.966
We need to trust Him for our daily provisions Proverbs 3, 5, and 6.
00:05:14.966 --> 00:05:19.471
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding.
00:05:19.471 --> 00:05:24.552
In all your ways, acknowledge Him and he will make straight your path.
00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:27.226
Romans 15, 13.
00:05:27.226 --> 00:05:37.791
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
00:05:37.791 --> 00:05:41.247
2 Chronicles 7, 14.
00:05:41.247 --> 00:05:53.988
If my people who are called by my name humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
00:05:53.988 --> 00:06:01.372
But first it comes with you being in a repentant state before God.
00:06:01.372 --> 00:06:07.427
When you get in that state, others will get in that state and then God will answer our prayers.
00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:10.807
Philippians 2, verses 3 and 4.
00:06:10.807 --> 00:06:18.471
Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.
00:06:18.471 --> 00:06:24.288
Let each of you look not only to his own interest but also to the interest of others.
00:06:24.288 --> 00:06:28.350
And when we're looking at the interest of others, that doesn't mean meddling in their affairs.
00:06:28.350 --> 00:06:30.365
It means to treat them.
00:06:30.365 --> 00:06:38.454
Thou shall love the Lord, thy God, with all thy heart, with all thy soul, with all thy strength, with all thy mind and thy neighbor as thyself.
00:06:38.454 --> 00:06:42.189
Love is not puffed up, does not insist on its own way.
00:06:42.189 --> 00:06:44.565
Love never fails.
00:06:44.565 --> 00:06:47.946
You get the idea there.
00:06:47.946 --> 00:07:00.829
Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that, at the proper time, he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on Him because he cares for you.
00:07:02.540 --> 00:07:04.526
That was Isaiah 41, 13.
00:07:04.526 --> 00:07:06.050
Sorry about that.
00:07:06.050 --> 00:07:10.168
Psalm 94, 18 and 19.
00:07:10.168 --> 00:07:29.120
Though I fall, when the cares of my heart are many, your consolations cheer my soul.
00:07:29.120 --> 00:07:36.600
Though I fall, I will always stand back up because God will help me with his helping right hand.
00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:38.682
Revelation 21.4.
00:07:38.682 --> 00:07:42.952
He will wipe away every fear from their eyes and death shall be no more.
00:07:42.952 --> 00:07:46.930
Neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain any more.
00:07:46.930 --> 00:07:49.447
For the former things have passed away.
00:07:49.447 --> 00:07:54.569
And he who was seated on the throne said Behold, I am making all things new.
00:07:54.569 --> 00:08:01.862
Friend, if you're down in the dumps and you're behind and you're dreading these holidays, look up.
00:08:01.862 --> 00:08:04.848
Look to Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith.
00:08:04.848 --> 00:08:11.072
Look to God, who provides you with everything to enjoy, First Peter, I think.
00:08:11.072 --> 00:08:15.060
Look up, He'll meet all your needs, supply all your needs.
00:08:15.060 --> 00:08:16.021
Flip you in four.
00:08:16.021 --> 00:08:19.726
Look up and keep your eyes on Jesus.
00:08:19.726 --> 00:08:22.689
Look full into his wonderful face.
00:08:22.689 --> 00:08:36.254
You have a blessed day in Jesus' name and you have a very blessed Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas and a prosperous new year in Jesus' name, Amen.
00:08:37.721 --> 00:08:41.289
