And we sat around a table and she plays for the first time ever that anyone besides her heard it probably is just on a small keyboard, just this song You Hold My Days. And we're all just crying. And it was just like so so a moment that God said that this is your day. I've got you. And I told her afterwards just almost like God was saying, was walking out the door and as if God was saying, Mark, come back. You have one more thing that you need. And I think that's what today is all about too as well. [00:43:05] (33 seconds)  #ThisIsYourDay Download clip

And this is where many people in this room are and people are online right now. God, I have no idea. But in my brokenness, you are here with me. There's a great verse of scripture in Psalm one nineteen. I think it's verse number 50 and it says, my comfort in my suffering is this, your promises preserve my life. My comfort in my suffering is this. So Jesus never said your life would be easy. And so if you're going through something right now here or online, we're in an overflow or even second family. If you're going through something, Jesus knows. [00:37:54] (37 seconds)  #JesusKnows Download clip

I know that it's prayer. I know that God's power, but what I feel like this the same way that my one of my life versus I cry out to God most high. You cry out to God most high who knows your brokenness, who knows your life, who knows every detail of your life. And this morning, I think ordained by God. I started feeling it. I told pastor Daniela this about a week ago. Felt really strongly that God wanted to touch people right here. Physically, emotionally, in relationships, some of you need to say, okay, God, will you preserve my life? [00:48:16] (32 seconds)  #CryOutToGod Download clip

And I thank you for it, Lord. In Jesus' name, pray, Lord God, over all the people who just prayed that prayer that your spirit would pour out over their life. Let them not listen to the enemy. Let them listen to the king of kings and the Lord of Lords. That god you have chosen them and you know your their days and you know where they're at and you know their hurt and their pain and you come alongside lord god not to let us wallow in it but to overcome by your grace and I pray this in Jesus name.

Whatever you want, God, I make room for you right now. To make room, you have to get rid of other things. You know, I was seeing the other day another storage unit is going up on a rock not too not too far my house. And I how much junk do people have in their house? That they have to have another brand new storage place to give their the the stuff into. And I thought spiritually, we're the same way. We have so much junk in our lives that we don't have room for Jesus. And so this song talks about making room for him. So wherever you're at, whatever age, whatever stage, [01:04:29] (32 seconds)  #MakeRoomForJesus Download clip

God gave me today. God gave you today for one reason to say, God, how can I come closer to you? How can I walk in your grace more? How can I flow in what you want me to flow in? So all days are important. So anniversaries are important. Birthdays are important. The day you came to faith in Jesus Christ. If that's the day, we're gonna celebrate with you today. But days are important to God, even the days you don't see coming. [00:36:45] (26 seconds)  #EveryDayMatters Download clip

God has the final say. God has the final say. So in your in my brokenness and in your brokenness, stop listening to the enemy and start believing the God who knows all your days. Amen? So God knows your days and he knows today and so those who are here, those who are online and those in the overflow, I just feel so strongly that this is your moment.

So almost three years ago, 03/21/2023, I was coming home from an admissions event and I pulled into Reagan Airport and my phone rings while I'm still on the plane. I rushed off the plane, called my doctor back and said, mister Lehman, I have some really bad news. Cancer is very aggressive. You got to come and see me tomorrow.
