``We have to number our days because we never know what tomorrow's going to bring. We must never take a day for granted, not one day. And so let me just say this to you. If you have a broken relationship with somebody, repair it. Because you never know what is going to happen tomorrow. If you have somebody that you're at odds with, forgive them. Because you never know what tomorrow is going to bring. And you don't want to live with regrets because of something that the Lord told you to do that you didn't do.

Could it be that God guided and protected the young nation not just in New York and Yorktown, but throughout their quest for Independence. Could it be that the fruit of the Great Awakening, a love for righteousness, sense for destiny, a moral courage, an unreserved dependence on God moved the heart and hand of God? Isn't that what God is calling for you and I to have a love for righteousness, a sense of destiny? [00:23:53] (33 seconds)  #DivineGuidanceInFreedom

Can the liberties of our nation be secure when we've removed the conviction that these liberties are a gift from God? I leave that question for you to decide. He that has ears, let him hear. [00:34:03] (19 seconds)  #HeritageToProtect

Every time you do that, you're planting a seed that God can grow and harvest that will mean one more soul plucked from the enemy's grasp and translated into the kingdom of God. Just one more. Can you believe God for that one soul, whether it's your mother, your father, your brother, your sister, your cousin, your aunt, your uncle, your grandfather, your grandmother, your friend, your boss, your co worker, your neighbour, or somebody you just meet in a supermarket, everyone has the right to hear the gospel. And you have the privilege of being a bearer of good news. Good news of redemption to all and everyone. [00:34:34] (50 seconds)  #LibertyFromGod

You see, it takes one person to tell someone else about the gospel about Jesus Christ. Are you willing to do this? You've got about six months left in this year. Are you willing to understand your responsibility and stand on the shoulders and the foundations of our forefathers and be willing to share the gospel with somebody else? [00:35:24] (30 seconds)  #PlantingSoulSeeds

Somebody took the time to tell you about Jesus. Somebody had the courage to tell you that the way you're living is not the way you should be living. Somebody had the courage to pray for you so that you may come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. And you were translated out of the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light. Surely we as a congregation and us as individuals bear that responsibility. [00:35:58] (37 seconds)  #OnePersonOneGospel
