Waiting on Jesus: Overcoming Doubt and Winning Life

Well, she smoked too much. Bring him to church anyway. He drank too much. Bring him to church anyway. Well, they out there fornicating. Bring him to church anyway where they gonna be cussing in church. Bring him anyway. Why? Because uh-oh. Hold on. Let me see. Because some of you, you're still smoking, you're still drinking, you're still fornicate, you're still doing all this stuff. They need god just as much as you do. Trying to act like you all holy. You ain't holy. Y'all need to stop. We gotta stop this. Come on. On. I know y'all say sanctify, fill with the holy spirit, and all but you still got some stuff you working on.

So one hand, I got joy, but the other hand, I got confusion because I don't understand how I win overall, but I lose, come on, in the day to day. Y'all better catch me. And some of us are trying to figure out how I win overall, but it seems like in the day to day of my life, come on, I am losing. Come on. Y'all better catch me. And what it made me realize is that sometimes, dear brothers and sisters, a person gained their wings so they won. But it seems like we lost because we missed them.

So, my last point is I bring this to a close, dear brothers and sisters. When we are waiting on Jesus, we are waiting for Jesus while dealing with doubt. It's one thing for me to wait with friends. It's another thing for me to wait in the darkness. But I'm waiting and I don't know if I truly believe on what I'm waiting for. Because he told them, Imma get up on the third day but the interesting thing about him getting on the third day and this is just me reading this text and studying the scripture because the the the disciples, the brothers and sisters, have seen a lot of miracles.

Late in the midnight hour, you should, listen, you should have one person, at least one person that when you up at two in the morning and you can't sleep And if you gotta call somebody, you should have one person that you can call and they be like, alright. What's up? You ain't gotta have a whole basketball squad of folks. All you need is one. If you know the scripture and as I get ready to try to wrap this, as you know the scripture, there were three disciples that really hung with Jesus. He had 12 but then he had the three that he really got close with. So, we're waiting on Jesus. [00:35:21] (55 seconds)  #OneTrustworthyFriend

We come because we are waiting on Jesus, and we are wait listen. We are waiting on Jesus. We are waiting on Jesus. Not just you, not just your neighbor, but we all collectively name are waiting in on the Jesus. To to We're the name The lord, we're going waiting on you. At the end of my message, yes, on on the end of my message, I closed out our Wednesday bible study. And when Jesus was on the cross, he said, I commit my hands to you, my spirit to you. I commit my spirit to you. When he was on the cross, watch what he was saying. He said, and I I know I keep saying this, but he said, in essence, father tag is your turn.

The reason why some of you are being attacked is because you are the leader. Come on. Let me say that. The reason why some of you are being attacked is because you are the leader. And then watch this and the weird part about it is some of you don't even realize that you are the leader. Come on. The devil is speak and recognize that your future is so bright, and he sits there and said, if this girl ever figure out who she is, I am in trouble. So, I gotta stop her now before she recognize who she is. [00:17:09] (43 seconds)  #LeaderUnderAttack

So, you gotta look at your friends differently. I tell y'all all that if if for this your first time hearing this, I say this all the time. Many of us have missed y'all up because we told you to get new friends. You don't need them. No. No. No. No. Some of them folks that you ain't talking to no more. They need to thank you. They need to see god work miracles in your life. Well, I'm going to new levels. Yeah, but you weren't meant to go to new levels by yourself. You you sitting there just running. I don't need nobody. Yes, you do. [00:24:53] (48 seconds)  #ValueOldFriends

You're trying, but it's hard. When you're dealing with that and I'm not listen, if the disciples are dealing with doubt Then imagine what you are dealing with. You didn't walk with Jesus every single day while he was on Earth. All you have is the word of 500 eyewitnesses and thousands of people that live prior to. Now, watch this. There's a difference between discouragement and doubt. And my job was to pray for those of y'all that's dealing with that. It's tough and you're trying but you gotta understand that god loves you. But you got, listen, you gotta understand that god loves you. [00:45:30] (85 seconds)  #DiscouragementVsDoubt
