[Music] open your Bibles this morning once again to the book of Exodus chapter 1 we're continuing with our series of messages that I believe the Lord has laid upon my heart to bring forth out of the book of Exodus in my opinion it's one of the greatest books in the Bible we'll begin reading with verse number eight now there arose up a new king over Egypt which knew not Joseph and he said unto his people behold the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we come on let us deal wisely with them lest they multiply and it come to pass that that when they fall off out any war they join also under our enemies and fight against us and so get them up out of the land therefore they did set over them test masters to afflict them with their burdens and they built for pharaoh treasure cities python and Rameses i want to pause once you look at me in bible typology that word taskmasters is a type of demon spirits it is the design and a desire of satan that even though you're saved if you don't understand the doctrine of sanctification that there will be taskmasters over you and they will afflict you and you will try to live your life carrying burdens trying to sanctify yourself I know we always like to look at the book of Exodus as a story of salvation and it is but it's also the story of sanctification and you never forget that if you don't understand the true legal work that happened on Calvary and the victory that was afforded you not only about justification but by sanctification you can saved and yet be a slave to task masters who afflicts you and heat burdens upon you but the more they afflicted them the more they multiplied and grew and they were grieved because of the children of Israel and the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with rigor and they made their lives bitter with hard bondage and mortar and in brick and an all manner of service in the field all their service wherein they made them serve was with rigor a very interesting word we're gonna deal with that today rigor I'm gonna minister just a few minutes on the simple subject blessing in the midst of persecution blessing in the midst of persecution your circumstance no matter how bad you may think it to be is no hindrance to the blessings of God that he has for you blessing in the midst of persecution would you bow your heads Father we come before you in the name of your son Jesus the Spirit of the Lord is in this house and where the Spirit of the Lord is there is Liberty anoint me to minister this morning I yield full control of my faculties to the Holy Spirit help me to say that which you won't sit and nothing more and Lord take this truth that hopefully I'll be able to bring out and take it to the hearts of your people not only those in the sanctuary but those that are watching and those that are listening and Lord we give you all the praise and all the glory and everybody said a man and a man the term gospel means good news literally it means the good news of Jesus Christ the gospel is the good news of Jesus Christ now I say that for this reason throughout the entirety of the Old Covenant from Genesis to Malachi you can find the good news you can find the gospel in the Old Covenant from Genesis to Malachi all 39 books we like to say it this way that the Old Covenant is the new covenant hidden but the new covenant is the old covenant reveal meaning that everything the New Covenant represents and stands for we can find it in the Old Covenant in the types the shadows and the figures and if you understand the types and the shadows it will help you to understand the Word of God better but we also must recognize to say this that no matter how great the type of the shadow may be it will always fall to the ground in comparison to the substance jesus said in Matthew 5 that I have not come to destroy the law but to fulfill it he fulfilled everything that the Old Covenant represented he fulfilled all the law he kept that which we could not keep we were lawbreakers but he was a law keeper but today because of our faith placed into the Lamb of God slain on Calvary's cross today I am a law keeper I'm not a law breaker and it's not me doing this or don't do that it's where my faith is listen if you want to do right get your faith right what you believe is how you act get it in your mind I don't have to be a slave any longer I don't have to carry these burdens any longer I'm sick and tired of these tests masters afflicting me I'm tired of trying to shake the fire myself you can't do it it's not in where you go where you don't go what you do what you don't do it's who you've and who and what your faith is in when your faith is properly placed in Christ the holy spirit that has the latitude to lead you direct and guide your footprints there are two great wonderful statements in the book of Exodus that really bear out what I'm trying to bring out the figure there's type the shadows of gospel the first is when Moses stood before Pharaoh and said let my people go notice my people Israel belong to God let my people go the second great statement that stands out in the book of Exodus is when I see the Blood I will pass over you nothing has changed from then until now when I see the blood I'll pass over you not when I see Family Worship Center not when I see the Assemblies of God not when I see the Baptist's or the Methodists or the Church of God when I see the blood and Jesus ratified both of those statements on Calvary's cross when he said it is finished it is finished hallelujah why are you trying to fight a battle that's already been won Jesus won that battle of Calvary the Bible said that there arose a new king over Egypt who knew not Joseph this was about two hundred and fifteen years after the death of Joseph now this does not mean this statement does not mean that this particular Pharaoh had no knowledge of Joseph he did how can the history of a country survive without the greatest miracle ever known famine the world around and God raised up Joseph and brought him out of a prison cell one minute he's in a prison cell the next he's the vice-president of the whole nation talk about God talk about God oh you know we're weak now I have I don't know what it is to go to jail I don't want to find out some of you are very well acquainted you've seen the inside of a lot of them think I hope pray the Lord I never seen one the closest I ever felt we were in Africa in the eighties and and we landed in I mean remember what country but it was a it was a country that was involved in civil war there was fighting going on and we had landed we were wanted to do some filming and in about three or four minutes we were under arrest now it's one thing you see these Nazis these gentlemen that walked up here with with their uniforms their badge their guns their pepper spray their handcuffs their lasers there their tag gun whatever it is do you have people actually go on YouTube you want people that let people zappa that's the sin nature at work right their stupidity and and but this was teenagers with ak-47s one of them wasn't older than 14 years old they stuck those ak-47s in our face and said you are under arrest and I got stuck in a little box for a while until we could get somebody we're pregnant we were not just praying the Lord let's get I send an adult over send these were kids and the sad fact is they were very well acquainted with how to use an ak-47 and taking a life meant nothing to them so he it would be impossible for him not to know of the great service that Joseph provided for the great nation of Egypt which at that time was the most powerful nation on the face of it was the United States of the world but what it meant is this is that when it said that he had no which knew not Joseph the whole idea is that he did not hold in regard the benefit and the blessing that Joseph brought upon the country of Egypt he had no regard for everything that Joseph did for their welfare that brings me to this point the world and when I say the world I'm not speaking literally of every single person it is a generalized term but I'm right the world has no regard for Christians do you understand that quit trying have come to peace with the world the world has no regard for the child of God they have no regard for Christianity do you understand that however we that are truly born again they may look at us as enemies but we never look at them as an enemy we looked at them as a poor lost soul who needs to find Jesus Christ hallelujah and the reason they look at us as enemies is because our lives brings conviction to their sin two things happen it happens in the church and it happens in the world we start with the church believers in the church there'll be times that believers they begin to have a deep deep deep yearning for more of the Lord and they want to draw closer to him and they begin to seek Him incessantly many times their friends in the church who are saved and born again they feel what that person is doing that are getting closer to the but sad to say for some it brings anger and fellowship is broken because they don't they feel conviction they know that they should be doing the same thing but the world when the child of God comes around him they feel our spirit and the spirit in them and the spirit in us is not the same it cannot cohabitate therefore they lash out at us they strike out at us they look at us as enemies in my library I have a little book on the life story of William Wilberforce he was a member of parliament in England when England was the most powerful nation in the world as a member of parliament he began to speak out very strongly against the sin of slavery and slave trading and let me help you here America did not start slavery Europe started slavery the English Portugal Spain but sad to say we followed suit down the road but we didn't start it he saw the misery and the suffering he would go in places like Bristol that was where in Liverpool where the slave ships would dock and he would watch the men women boys and girls treated like animals without Jesus Christ a human life has no more value than a dog you're not here this morning when a person doesn't know Jesus Christ they had there is no value to human life hence the dilemmas for finish my story I read an article just the other day do you know in the year 2017 is a year pass what the world leading cause of death around the world was 49 million deaths it was not car wrecks murder cancer it was abortion abortion accounted for 49 million and Planned Parenthood after trying to deny it for years at least the the dingbat woman that leads it she finally come up and said we only have one primary mission and that is to provide abortion it's murder it's murder hello it's murder China one point four billion people but yet they had a rule of four years of one child per family and preferably a boy because he can work harder and they've they've seen millions of people babies aborted until now there had with 1.4 billion they're worried that they're not going to have enough men to marry all the women in other words they killed off their generations to come when you don't know Jesus you don't think right hello and it broke his heart and he would get up day after day on the floor of Parliament and called for the absolution of the the destruction of slavery he couldn't get an amendment he couldn't get a bill to go forth because there were too many members of parliament that made great sums of money on the trafficking of human beings we're in the midst of a crisis right now in the country and it is a crisis concerning our southern border I read the other day not a Democrat not a Republican just a straight news fact what was the last time we just saw news instead of trying to shape the news the reporter made this statement he said when America legalized marijuana and some of the states in western states and medicinal marijuana that the drug cartels could not compete with the lower price so they just changed I still brought in black tar heroin they're still bringing in cocaine they're still bringing in meth they're still bringing in fentanyl which if you saw the news this morning in a in a house I think in Colorado 9 WA California 9-1-1 call went out and when the police ran to her there was 12 people that overdosed one was dead the other were critical because of fentanyl just a little bit of smell of fentanyl could kill everybody in this room section a Millis justice BRE that you're all dead and we say we don't need a wall how stupid how stupid the Speaker of the House is a dingbat who does not care about the welfare of American citizens oh you shouldn't say that girl you're under um you want to know what I really want to say and but the article went on to say that when marijuana was no longer a profitable business you know if they switched to slave trafficking rounding up little boys and girls separating them from their families passing them off as their own children to bring them across the border in order to either do one of three things forced them into prostitution or to sell them out to a pedophile human trafficking the business of destroying the lives of little boys and girls I can't even remember the dollar amount they put it that it was millions of millions of dollars but now the Congress doesn't care oh there's no problem on the border oh they don't want to talk about sex trafficking they don't want to talk about our nation being flooded with drugs and you know why it's two reasons one they're full of sin the full of the devil I'll say it again they're full of the devil and by opening the borders they can build the roles with those who will vote Democratic for the rest of their life and we will be under a one-party state that's the whole thing in other words they don't care about the human suffering all they care about is votes god help us and he grew discouraged Wilberforce did because they would shout him if you've never watched when I go to Inc I'll leave it a couple of weeks to go to Australia and when I go to England they always have in England and in Australia they always have a government channel like c-span and it is a blast to watch how Parliament work it's totally different that it is in the States you see you turn on c-span and there's this long-winded guy giving a speech and you wonder why they never show the camera never spans because there's nobody there there's nobody there but when Parliament meets Canada England Australia New Zealand South Africa whenever the English influence all of the members of parliament they're on one side is the Groot one whatever party they are the other side and man they go to it better than any nighttime drama there is the Prime Minister forgiving they're booing him down or hold down jobs shut up shut up I've actually seen him take their shoes and bang all right let him bang just don't start throwing him and he grew discouraged to the point that he said I'm going to give up there's no way that one man can eradicate this scourge from our land and he took a trip a couple hours out of London to the little town of New England there was an Anglican Church pastored by John knew Amazing Grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me I once was lost but now I'm found I was blind but now I see Wilberforce was broken he was a broken man and sitting at the table and breakfast one morning seeing nothing but defeat all around him he I can't do it they won't listen they're more interested in gold and silver than the suffering of human beings and all of a sudden John Newton stood up grab Wilberforce by the shoulders and pulled him up and this is what the writer said he screamed listen to me was a great sinner but God is bigger than my sin don't give up don't give up don't give up don't give up don't give up the fighter and William wheel Forsyth he was renewed re-energized he went back to Parliament and he kept every day we've got to stop and eventually the Parliament of England voted to do away with slavery [Applause] he was a devoted Christian but they hated listen they're gonna hate you because our lives condemn them it said the people of Israel a more and mightier than we are now that was a lot that was an outright lie there was about two to three million people called Israelites or Hebrews in the land of Egypt but there were millions of Egyptians the Israelites had no army they had no skilled fighters they had no weapons of war they had no chariots of iron no horde they had nothing means that thing here's the point in that the world will always lie about Christians hello the world will always lie about Christians the world will always lie about us they will say that we're cruel that will mean that if we had our power we would discriminate against that we would mistreat them now why do they think that because if they ever had the power that's what they would do to us they would discriminate against us song they were trying to put us out they were trying to shut our mouths but let me tell you as long as I've got breath in my body we will not be silent certainly Worship Center will never be on the sidelines but we're going to stand up bow and proclaim the word of Almighty God is truth and the world is alive and abortion is a sin homosexuality is a sin greed is a sin racism is a sin other than the problem with the world is the we need a new government we have a sin problem we've got a heart problem we have men and women whose hearts are wicked and they just do they feel the way they feel because they think they know that that's what they would do that's why I'm so adamant on voting that's why if you didn't hear me on the program mothers Pro us we a dumb congressman from Tennessee one of the most liberal he's so liberal he almost makes Pelosi look moderate he's a bad dude so corrupt and he pay tried to he's trying to get an amendment passed to do away with the electoral college you better pray that that never happens you better be calling your Congressman in Washington you better be calling our two senators and telling them that we believe in the electoral college if there were that's the beauty of the founding fathers and their intelligence they knew that there had to be an equal ground because some states have more people than other states do you realize if we did away with the electoral college six cities would determine every federal election six cities six cities would determine who serves as our president our votes would not matter anymore Barack Obama when he ran against Romney Wellborn Willard what do you mean Willard that's his name them not mitt that's a nice name is Willard and he looks like a Willard he just looks like a Willard I understand why he wants everybody call him it because well we heard I mean let's think about this the guy loses out only nomination for president he has a private meeting Trump after the election and begs to be Secretary of State and Trump had enough sense not to do it and then his first act as a senator is to attack him come on folks that's not a conviction that's pettiness and payback but I read this hard they said that if there was no electoral college that in the Obama Romney election Romney lost nationwide by 3 million votes but in the cities I'm talking about 6 cities he lost by 3 point 6 million votes in other words it doesn't matter what the rest of Illinois does what Chicago does determines what happens it doesn't matter what Visalia California does it's what la in San Francisco does it doesn't matter with the little Hamlet's of Pennsylvania it's what Pittsburgh it would all come down and you better pray every day that God raised up the founding fathers and gave them intelligence to keep everything on a fair and equal we need the electoral college but they would discriminate against that they would take our rights away to preach the gospel because you see a true believer will always identify sin now here here here's what you gotta remember though there are some new Christians out there I'm not so sure I would rather be in the room with the devil than some of them I mean they're just flat-out me and that's who they equate with Christianity I mean there's every group has some dummies if you think they're mean and they're saved can you imagine what they before they got saved I remember Debian our ops Pritchard in San Francisco and we went down on one of the days and we went down in the heart of the city where the cable cars are I loved riding the cable cars we we it's fun and we were in line waiting for the cable car it comes it stops and it turns and you get out and right across the street two guys call himself Street Preachers came up had a microphone they set up all these signs and you know if they were preaching against its San Francisco and it was the most vile it was it was a horrible reproach upon the true gospel of Jesus Christ it was a diatribe of hatred and venom and I I'm standing and Debbie had to hold me back because I wanted to go across the street to him shut up because here's the thing the foundation of Christian evangelism is this we hate the sin we love the sinner I'm not opposed to a single homosexual we'd never lift a hand against them but I'm opposed to homosexuality I'm not opposed to any alcoholic but I'm opposed to alcohol not opposed to anyone bound but drugs are gambling but I am 100% opposed to legal and illegal drugs that are misused and I'm against every casino and every lottery several years ago walked into one of the convenience stores here and walked him to the back getting I remember was getting in I heard a voice and it was familiar to me and I was saying I said I know that voice and I looked back and it was one of our members here buying lottery tickets the problem was they knew more about it than I did I want one pick six and walked two of that and they're dragging all this stuff better and I'm like where's daddy when you need him where's the great wisdom of death I didn't know what this what you do I just sit down in the back we waited for them to pay and walk out I don't know what to do I know what I do now and it wouldn't be what you think but but we love the center he said let us deal wisely with them lest they join our enemies and fight against us this was false wisdom the world and sad to say most of the church never use their wisdom correctly and you can't use your god-given wisdom without being yielded to the Holy Spirit do you understand that the church hardly ever uses proper wisdom they never think what is good for the work of God but it's what's good for the denomination they never think what is good for the kingdom let me tell you if you get what's right for the kingdom right then the denomination and the church will be blessed but when you get the cart before the horse God will not bless he will not God he will not lead he's not waiting for you to take a vote and vote on a ballot who's gonna do God always has a man he always has a woman he always has a prophet he always has an apostle let us deal wisely with him all sinners are a little bit insane rebellion against God is total insanity why would you repel against the giver of life think back to where you once were in the world before Jesus Christ picked you up why would people why would they rebel against the goodness of God who has nothing but good for those who will accept him why because they're unsaved therefore the brain doesn't function right the Bible said they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with burdens as I brought out at the beginning and Bible typology taskmasters are a type of demon spirits who come to seek to afflict and burden the child of God listen there are more people than you realize sitting in Pentecostal churches all over the world that are battling sin 24 hours a day seven days a week there's bondages in their life there's bondage of drugs or alcohol or pornography or whatever it may be and they don't know what to do they're trying this they're trying that they're fasting for this they listen you can fast until the can pull you through a keyhole but you cannot faster wait a victory you can't do it and they are affected Lauren made mention last Sunday night of a brother that was here Farrell Wilson good brother pastors in Mississippi and he is a product of then Sun Life Radio got saved baptized in the Holy Spirit became a state evangelist appointed by the overseer of that state as their state evangelist and God was using him traveling criss cross at all of mississippi seeing people saved baptized in the Holy Spirit well last time I preached for him I heard him give the testimony himself but what they didn't know he said when I got saved he said I was on drugs I was on alcohol I smudged so everything he said it all fell away except the alcohol I couldn't stop drinking I would try this I would try that I would say today's the day I'm gonna have surgery but within two or three hours I would find myself driving to the store to get beer he said he was so ashamed of itself that he found a little country store so far out in the country that you would have a man have to have a map to find it and he would drive out there and buy his beer because nobody will know me out here nobody will see me he'd get drunk he'd get home and he'd fall on the floor sobbing before God I don't want to live like this I know so he said he wouldn't say yes he was he was born again he loved God with all of his heart but he was trying to sanctify himself by what he did or he didn't do you can't sanctify yourself you're opening the door for taskmasters to place you and burn friction he said this I would actually pray he said I I would it was almost like there was a force pushing me you cannot overcome the power of darkness with willpower Satan's power is greater than your willpower because your power your willpower is rooted in flesh he said it was like a force pushing me out the door pushing me into that pickup truck he said I can't tell you how many times I push as hard as I could on that accelerator knowing there was a curve coming up ahead I said god I can't stand this I can't live another day like this I know you've called me I know you saved me I don't know what's wrong but I can't beat this alcohol I'm gonna die I'm gonna nut I'm not gonna take that curve I'm gonna go straight Lord I'm gonna kill myself he said but every time he would chicken out he said one day came you went to that grocery store looked for convenience store out in the middle of nowhere Mississippi walked in the back he said I always walked in with my head down afraid that somebody might recognize me he said I got my beard now I don't know what beer tastes like if it's if it tastes like it smells you got to be stupid to drink that stuff somebody told me once it's an acquired taste hey if you got to acquire taste like that you're really insane and he said for the he said generally I can walk in grab my 12-pack get in line in a couple seconds I'm out the door and I'm out in the road I'm not in the country drinking he said but there was a line of people and he said I'm standing so I wouldn't look up looking down looking down that's what taskmasters want to do they want to make you look down and he said okay wonder what is wrong with my dad moving so slow and he said he looked up and there was an african-american woman standing in front of him she had a t-shirt on and on the back of the t-shirt it said experience the difference Sun Life Radio and we had a radio station area 90 something point something whatever it was now here's a beautiful thing we've never once printed t-shirts for Sun Life anything never we've never had a t-shirt that said experienced a different Sun Life Radio and the frequency of that little station in Mississippi I have no idea how she got it I guess she did it herself and he bought that beer walk about got in his truck he said experience that what difference 90 whatever it was and he said I started that engine that beer sitting by me and he said I ripped open the box I'm driving along and I pulled out the bottle of beer and he said I'm gonna try I'm gonna listen to that whatever they turned it to sonlife radio and if I've heard this once I've heard it a million times the first words I heard was the answer you seek is found in the cross the answer you seek let me tell you you don't know only heaven knows how many believers around the world have the same testimony they turned on a radio they turned on the television and the first words they heard oh wait somebody needs to shout oh the answer you seek it's found in the cross the answer you seek it's found in the cross the answer II when I see the Blood I will pass over you he said he said it was like the power of God hits the cab of that truck chill bumps broke all out all over my body I began to it I didn't have a clue as to what that statement meant but I knew it was right I went inside sat down turned on the radio in house I kept listening it was a rerun of the message of the cross and he said when it ended I realized I hadn't taken cent he said that night a rerun of another series came on day after day he kept listening and finally it hit he said it took me about a month but he said one day it hit me right between the eyes I'm trying to win a victory that Jesus Christ won for me at Calvary 2,000 years ago and I'm sick and tired of being under the Bootheel of past masters afflicting me and burden me with the bondage of sin he said the first thing I did was I repented of trying to sanctify myself and he said well I said Father in the name of Jesus forgive me for trying to do what you did 2,000 years ago he said the Spirit of God came all over me he said I started shouting and running on he said those people he said his church he said that was five years ago I have never had one desire for alcohol a day in my free you know has to be under the taskmaster singers musicians way back they made them to serve with rigor now I skipped a verse cuz I save it for the end to tie into my title they made them to serve with rigor interesting word that made their lives bitter with hard bondage made them serve with rigor twice that word rigor is used it is a very strange word it's an old word it's a cute word that's not used much it's a rare word it means to break in pieces to crush Pharaoh said I'm going to crush him gotta break them into pieces I'm going to destroy them but you see Pharaoh made one critical mistake the children of Israel did not belong to him they belong to God somebody needs to shout something you could huff you can pop but you can't blow God's house down somebody needs to shower but the more they afflicted them the more they multiplied and drew that's my wine I came to preach they were in the middle of persecution but in the middle of persecution God was blessing your circumstance your situation no matter how bad or dark it may look is no hindrance to God blessing you in the midst of your persecution oh forget hurry what God has blessed no man can curse if God be for us who can be against us if God be for us who can be against us let me read something to you they could put it on the screen this is a statement made by Charles Henry McIntosh who was a 19th century Bible scholar minister from Ireland he was a member of the fill the up limit Brethren Church you could see it in there McIntosh said in reference to the king of Egypt it may assuredly be said he did greatly err you think not knowing God or his changeless councils he knew not that hundreds of years back before even he had breathed the breath of mortal life God's Word and oath two immutable things had him follow be secured the full and glorious deliverance of that very people and thought the people which at that time the time of the oath God didn't even exist whom he was going in his earthly wisdom to crush all this was unknown to him and therefore all his thoughts and plans were founded upon ignorance of that grand foundation the truth of all truths namely that God is God I gotta stop right there God is don't go past those two words God is God not God was not God shall be but God what do you mean God is everything he's our Savior he's our healer he's a deliverer he's our Baptizer in the whole ego he's our justification he's our sight of it he's everything he's the only one that can prepare table in the wilderness God is God is looking he said he vaguely imagined that he by his management could could prevent the increase of those concerning him God had said they shall be as the stars of heaven and as the sand of which is upon the seashore his wise dealing therefore was simply madness and folly concerning Pharaoh he picked a fight with the wrong people [Applause] and I want you to know this moon the devil has picked a fight with the wrong people we're the Church of the Living God Jesus Christ is still Lord Jesus Christ is on the throne Jesus Christ is in control of what happens in Washington is Jesus Christ is in control of the economy Jesus Christ sits on his throne he's still there he's still moving he's still saving he's still healing he's still delivered he still baptizing believers with the God is God is God is everyone standing feet God is God is God is got whatever you need God is it's the same as saying I am that I am I'll be what you ever you need me to be when you need me but I don't know you this morning in terms of your heart I don't know that I don't know that knee I don't know the battle I don't know some of you if there's a bondage there's that my job to know it's my job to proclaim the truth as the Lord would say look for her to preach deliverance to the captives I can't deliver you but the one who Macintosh said God is he can and he already has they sing whatever they feel led to sing I want you to step out for where you see you know what you feel this front [Music] media's come to the side [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] come on sing a church [Music] come on [Music] there are some of you standing right here those watching and listening prove you're standing up here and you feel disgraced because you failed the Lord join the club join the club no one is here this morning to condemn you no one is here to crush you it's not God's will that any believer should walk and bondage you but to walk free I am redeemed bought with a price do you know that song I am redeemed bought with a price oh I love those has changed my whole come on sing [Music] [Music] if anybody asked you [Music] [Music] right for you you buy television we're gonna pray for the share a thon that starts tomorrow but let me tell you one thing really quick another testimony the man came up to me in a little town in Arkansas up right just a few miles of the border of Missouri came in with his whole family wife a little boy a little girl he said brother Donnie can I talk to you in private see ya he said when God saved me so much fell off but he said I could not stop smoking marijuana he said don't let them tell you that marijuana is not addictive it is addictive he said I couldn't stop so here I am saved and filled with the Holy Spirit and he said I would come home and in my garage I had a hole hidden my marijuana and I would roll a joint and I would sit in here my wife knew what my kids did and I'd smoke that joint you know felt like a dog but he said once again not all radio but this time flipping the dials on television I heard brother Swaggart begin to teach on the message of the cross and one day it hit me Lord you did that for me you you this
