What If? Psalms 119:1-6

0:00Good morning, what are the sons of Monmouth, Edison Lee? What about the birth of this morning? Psalms, chapter 119, verses 136. Blessed are those who ways are blaneless, who walk according to the law of the Lord. Blessed are those who keep his status and seek him with all their heart. They do not wrong, but follow his ways. You have laid down the precepts that are to be fully obeyed, oh, that my ways were steadfast in obeying your decrees. Then I would not put to shame when I consider all your commands. That wasn't me, do you? Um, when you read the word, you studied a word, and you understand God's commandments. Therefore, what you read instead

1:00is shouldn't manifest within you. So, for you believe in the false prophets? Oh, yeah. I do believe false prophets. They can deceive us. Yes, that's why they tell you read and study the word for yourself. OK, now you read the word, and you study the word, right? Can you still be bamboozled? Yes, you can. So, what do you do to combat that? Now, you read the word, you study the word. So, how can you get fooled? Watch you get fooled. Well, you probably keep being fooled up to a certain point. Meaning you probably start questioning things that that person say or do. So, how do you bring someone closer to God who feels that they God has abandoned them? Well, it's your walk that they see. It's one thing to tell people anything, but when they actually see you go through it, through what you're going through,

2:03therefore, when they see you withstand your storms or attacks or whatever they come toward you, and see that you withstand, and you speak of God, grace and mercy, and him shielding you from all your enemies that try to attack you, that resonates with certain people. Yeah, of course it's for you, Father. Growing up, right? I know you got a lot of relatives. You got a lot of friends. And who did you look at that part that made you want to notice this God, this Jesus Christ? My sister, I saw not only what she did for her family, but what she did for the community. She was adamant by us going to Bible study, about us going to Quarra Hersel, and she would go up and down the street, she'd pack us in a car like Sardines.

3:06And when she told one to do something, she told all, she didn't discriminate. If you did wrong, she wouldn't get all your in line and take care of you. So she showed me what the love of God can manifest within a person. So how did it make you feel to know that that was your sister? It makes me proud because the seed she sowed was not only the community children, it was her own family. Her daughters, her nieces, and nephews, they are really striving good today. You talking about you speaking of George, right? I can recall when George passed away and going to her home, going that a lot of children that came there, put a baby back up. George was telling me story about a classroom. And some of the kids, they were, she had to put some fear of get right inside of them. And one little boy that's in Russia told him, if you do so on, so on, so again, and that little boy threatened her, right? And the same children came to her funeral

4:09and gave a testimony that was heartbreaking because they said Miss White was, she was directly, she was candid, but we knew that she loved us because everything she did, she did for my heart. It's hard to make you feel when you saw the people standing at the children that you stand up and speak so highly of your sister. Oh, first of all, I wasn't surprised. Second one was up. Second one, it makes you proud that they're speaking of your siblings like that. And I tell anybody, she really loved her family, but not only her family, she loved her work community. She loved her community that she lived in. We all had, she had a, a very powerful present and a lot of youth lives. So if you recall the incident, when you've changed someone's life,

5:10bring them closer to God. I can't say it. Well, like I said, the only thing I can say is that when people know your walk without you even telling them, because like I said, when I first started a job and I went in there, the women didn't want to show me nothing. And in the end, I developed a close relationship with the manager and she began to show me a lot of reporting. But so happened to reporting in the end, we all had to end up doing. Therefore, what she showed me, I had to show some of them. Well, I would call one woman saying, no matter how someone treated you feelings, you're the meaner state to say. So let me know that you held bent on not showing me nothing

6:14but yet you knew you was being mean spirit toward me. But regardless, regardless of how you treated me, my demeanor still stayed the same with you. I was willing to show you what I had learned without any prettiness or judgmental based on how you treated me. So is that the God in you? That is God in me, but I don't tell everybody. God is my protector, he's my provider, he's my employer, he's my judge, he's my attorney, he's all they above. You know what, fellas? People sometimes they won't validate your relationship with God, but it validates your relationship with God by knowing who you really are. Now, I can recall that incident, something happened with a Corga yours. She came to you crying about something that had happened and you told her, dry your tears, dry your tears. Now, what happened with that, fellas?

7:14No, the management had called her in, also accused her pretty much the other young lady accused her of doing something. And management called her in. Well, I was a witness to everything. So I guess after they upset her, she went back and told them, fellas is my witness. Well, when she came back, she proceeded to tell me everything that transpired. And she said, I told him, fellas, you was my witness. I said, well, so what you're crying for? That's a work of tears. I'm your witness. I'm not gonna seem like I'm young, can you hear me? I say like a black anem. I said, I would tell them what transpired and what I saw. I said, believe me, believe me. I told her because of how I conduct myself, they're not gonna come to me and say, that come down. And guess what? They didn't even say, jack to me. Because guess what?

8:14I was not gonna give oxygen to the foolishness they were trying to do upon her. So, fellas, get the listener in a view of something to care the rest of the week. Just make sure to see if you're so all right. Because believe it or not, they will come back. You want them to come back and blossom. You don't want to come back and smack you all in the face. You did it? That's it. Hey, thank you for listening. Fellas and Lee this morning. Be mindful. Imagine going through it. We can guarantee you one thing. It's going to be okay as long as we got a party of life. That's to what if guaranteed. Just what if? What if you allow God to come into your life? I promise you, thing will be different. Have a blessed day. And please find time to make time to tell God. Thank you. We found on YouTube, Facebook and Spotify. Have a blessed day. Thank you, fellas. Thank you.
