1. "Obedience takes a lot of faith. Because obedience... doesn't know the why. And as soon as I make it about me, I've missed God. Because he doesn't always tell me why. A lot of times, he doesn't even tell me how. That's called faith. If you knew the how, you'd do it yourself. And you'd mess it up. And so God will give you just enough information to take the next step. That's all he wants out of you, is the next step. The obedience."

2. "Jesus came through the womb of a woman. So he could be perfectly human in front of us. And live life as a human being. Because if he lived life as God, there's no comparison and he's not an example for me. I can't compete with God. So he came as a human being through the womb of a woman. See that's how... Listen. Jesus always comes through the right door. The devil came through a serpent. But Jesus came through a womb man. Woman. A human with a womb."

3. "He used the word. He came back with the word every time. He spoke from the word. He spoke from the power of the word. And he showed the power of the word. He showed us. What was he showing us?

You can do this." [07:15] (39 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)

Hold on. used to be a lady that used to come to this church and every service she would get right here. When I was single. Don't say nothing. Don't be ugly.

Pastor Steven, you know that little song? Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah." [13:00] (66 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)

And they do a fabulous job of leading. did an excellent job today of leading us in the presence. What we have to shift is our part. Are y'all with me? We have to shift our part.

7. "The Bible says their voices shook the temple to its foundations. Their voices, their voices, their voices, y'all shook the temple. We sometimes think it was because God. Was in the house that the temple shook. It wasn't because God was in the house because God is everywhere. If that was the case, everything would be shaken all the time. Your car would be shaken so bad. When you're trying to drive home, you would think all your tires are out of alignment because God is in your car. He's going to get in your car with you."

Somebody say become a servant. Become a servant. If you're disappointed, be a servant. If you're angry, be a servant. If you're hurt, be a servant. If you're going through problems, still be a servant. Because you can't ever get away from being a servant. Because if you want to be the greatest of all, you got to be the servant of all."

Come on, y'all. Hear what I'm saying. In the glory of the Lord, your title don't matter. In the glory of the Lord, your significance is greatly reduced, because He's all that matters.
