Endless | Dr. Matthew Stevenson | Almost Missed It

our study is from First Samuel chapter 16 I won't be before you quickly at all first Samuel 16 what I say I won't be before you long oh I got a weakness first time you're 16 first time you're 16 verse 1 this is going to help you you say Amen loud I'll let you go first time you're 16 you kind of Stern ain't your brother now the Lord said to Samuel you have mourned long enough for Saul look at somebody said get over it you have more and long enough to saw and I have rejected him as king of Israel so fill your flask with olive oil and go to Bethlehem find a man named Jesse this is the the NLT who lives there well I've selected one of his sons to be my king but Samuel acts how can I do that if Saul hears about it he'll kill me take a heifer with you the Lord replied and say that you have come to make a sacrifice to the Lord and then invite Jesse to the sacrifice and I will show you which of his sons to anoint for me so Samuel did as the Lord instructed and when he arrived at Bethlehem the elders of the town came trembling to meet him what's wrong they acts do you come in peace yes Samuel replied I've come to sacrifice to the Lord by yourselves and come with me to the sacrifice then Samuel performed the purification Rite for Jesse and his sons and invited them to sacrifice too but when they arrived Samuel took one look at le AB and thought surely this is the Lord's anointed but the Lord said to Sam you don't judge by his appearance or height for I have rejected him the Lord doesn't see things the way you see them people judge by the outward appearance but the Lord looks at the heart Jesse told his son Abinadab step forward and walk in front of Samuel I'm here to tell you the morning God is about to change who's in front of you walk in front of Samuel but Samuel saying this is not the one the Lord has chosen next Jesse summoned Shanaya but some Samuel said neither is this the one the Lord has chosen and in the same way all seven of Jesse's sons were presented to Samuel but Samuel said to Jesse the Lord has not chosen any of these and Samuel Alex are these all the sons you have there is still the youngest Jesse replied but he's out in the fields watching the sheep and the goats in for him at once Samuel say it and we will not sit down to eat until he arrived god be praised so Jesse sit for him he was dark and handsome with beautiful eyes blacklivesmatter and the Lord said this is the one anoint him so as David stood there among his big brothers samuel took the flask of olive oil he had brought and anointed David with the oil and the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon David from that day then Samuel returned to Rama father help me to preach those 21 minutes and 38 seconds I want to preach to you I almost missed it almost missed hannah was in a very very very peculiar situation Jordan in that she had a man that loved her and still didn't have what she wanted she was in a beautiful marriage Jimmy and his life and circumstance would have it she was not able to produce she was barren and in Bible times a barren woman was a useless woman they didn't think that there was any worth to a woman whose womb was shut up but dangerous things have dangerous things happen when women cry I have seen heaven and earth stop at the tears of the right woman God has created women with a capacity to weep and when they do history changes and it's even dangerous when women weep for the right reasons there's a lot of women who are used to weeping because they're hurting sometimes when women weep even because of what you do God will move look at somebody don't mess with a weeper don't mess with a reaper Hannah wept and cried out to God because of what she did not have and there was a lady named pnina I call her petit pnina banana made it her business to remind Hannah all the time of what she did not have and it didn't help Jared that pnina seemed to have everything that Hannah wanted have you ever honestly looked at somebody and thought you're living my life you're not gonna be honest have you ever in beat the freedom the liberties the access the favor of another person Hannah had to look at pnina and be reminded of what God did not or had not done for her yet but just because he ain't done it yet I could run right there does not mean he's not going to do it I said just because he ain't did it yet does not mean he's not going to do it remember Daniel when he was contemplating or he was thinking about his life Raymond when they were getting ready to throw him in the furnace and they acts and what's going to happen it don't come out he said well if the Lord does not deliver me it's not because he changed come on I'm here to tell you just because it ain't happened don't mean it's not going to happen banana started posting and tweeting and texting and laughing and jeering and doing all of that and Hannah had to be reminded and sit in her reality and nobody understood it not even her husband one day as she went before the Lord she said okay let's make a deal if you give it to me I'll give it to you I'll give you more for more if you cause me to bring forth I will not claim this as mine it's not gonna be a part of my resume it's not gonna be in my bio I'm not gonna even act like it was me I'll give you the glory with what you give me when you want him got to move you've got to make sure that he believes that what he gives you you're going to give him there's a lot of people who don't have because they won't release what they have to God Hannah made a decision if I'll give him to you and I'm not gonna he's gonna be a Nazarite from his birth I'm gonna allow his hair to grow long he's not gonna be a drinker I'm gonna separate him and so she brought forth and when she brought forth there was a solvent in the earth Samuels birth came at appearing at a time when men were not hearing from God God put in Hannah the answer to the problem she gave birth to Samuel meaning the Lord has heard now Hannah's young Hannah's born as Sam Sammy was born but Hannah does not trust her handling of Samuel Hannah does not trust her life or provision her perspectives to train Samuel after all she lived her life in doubt so because she was a woman acquainted with doubt she could not cultivate the promise the right way she entrusted her child to the priest when she entrusted her child to the priest what she did every year and I want you to pay attention to this the Bible said at the same time every year she would bring him a new leaf bought a new garment not just because he outgrew it and was growing fast children you know that them Joker's just half a moment well you like where did you come from I mean I was looking at my oldest daughter yesterday and I'm not gonna just smack your general principal just for being tall just to remind your future that I'm your daddy I mean she just tall you understand and uh but Hannah would go every year to Eli's house to bring Samuel a new EFI you want to know why Eli had money he was a priest he lived off offerings he could have given Samuel something to wear but without Hannah measuring those garments and coming to bring it to him Samuel would have been tempted to wear what was on Eli God wanted to make sure that he didn't go and Eli's house and draw and try to put on what was not here so Hannah didn't have a lot to offer but what she did offer was the permission to be unique but she couldn't teach him how to hear from God and how the prophesy God was gonna do that through another venue but what she could do is make him feel comfortable with being himself if you are a mother and hear one of your superpowers is to make sure your children are confident in their identity this is why when the devil wants to strain a mother relationship with anybody he makes the mother by curiously live through the child because he knows that there is great danger in a woman who nurtures the uniqueness of their seed that is a super power so Eli starts to rear samuel and raise them and what he did was brilliant Eli was not a prophet and we don't have any history that Eli ever heard from the Lord but what he did was genius he raised Samuel around the ark when the other children were watching TV and Elmo and door and yeah some of y'all too young to understand a conjunction junction what's your function you know he started rearing them on strange stuff like the puzzle plays and lambchops play-along a throwback oh my god and Mister Rogers and all of them with my other kids were over there Samuel was sleep by the Ark he was resting by the Ark and there was all kind of bizarre activity Jerry the Ark was not a quiet thing I'm getting to my point it was it was a very very very there was electricity flowing from it at all times York was so powerful but if it was in the radius of an idol the Idol dropped down remember what happened to dad God Dagon was in a different radius just facing the arc and God was showing us then you will never have another God before me tag-on fell down in front of the ARCA so the Ark was something that people dreaded to touch and yet Sam yo step on it you mishandled the art the wrong way you got cancer tumors broke out rats and bulls and judges God killed men for touching it by metal M Samuel slay on it now that there's some things that your neighbor is about to walk into that you can walk in and there are some things that God has called your neighbor to do that's gonna look unwise to you but that's cuz it's not for you don't ever let somebody else determine your limit don't you let somebody else who ain't found nailed their balance as a wife and a mom and a business owner tell you that you not balance come on balance is determined by the colon it's gonna all look different based upon the assignment look if somebody will clicks hey I'm different Eli's ninety Tiffany but the voice of God watch me priestess in 30 minutes the voice of God comes to a nine-year-old gives them a word for the nation Eli is 90 Samuels 9 God bypasses Eli goes to Samuel said Samuel lend me your ear he wakes up gives God his ear and God begins to talk to him about the pending judgments of the nation God could not get to a 90 year old what a nine year old was willing to hear I'm showing you this Samuel had an acute handle on accuracy from God you cannot tell somebody who's only known the voice of God that he ain't heard God he knew God's voice more than he knew his mom's he knew God's voice more than he knew his father he knew the voice of God he established a dreadful reputation he had about 70 pounds of hair he had to cut it every year he's a lock screw all the way down so you never mistaked him for anything else when he would walk around the Bible say from Dan to Beersheba men knew that he was established as a prophet of the Lord he was a bad man Samuel revolutionized the prophetic and the revelatory community of Israel because before Samuel prophets moved as vagabonds separate isolated one here and one there they were literally roaming people they didn't have a home Samuel revolutionize how was done and say uuuuu come over here and i'ma stand over you he created ghettos of prophets literally classes of prophets and were trained them so he was a dangerous man he started the schooling system Samuel did Samuel did it and did he lied you picked it up but I'm trying to show you his whole life was centered around sensitivity his entire career was around sensitivity he made it his life's work to announce to prognosticate to foretell and forth tell what God was about to do one day a change came in the earth things changed culture change the needs of the people change and God being how is looks for an available ear he finds of course Samuel where he left him and he says Samuel tomorrow I'm going to reveal to you who the king is if you will stop mourning I want you to hear this the hardest thing to Moore is how you thought it was going to be y'all not list I'm going men can conceptualize losing loved ones and going to funerals sometimes the hardest thing to let go of is how you hoped it would plan out samuel was invested in saul had plans for him saw him in his potential prophesy to it told the other prophets to sing and prophesy to it and God is like alright stop Mourning I've rejected him it was not a new plan of God it was new information to Samuel God knew all along how this was going to turn out because he was God but sometimes when God doesn't give you the full perspective you become confident in the wrong thing Samuel should never have been confident and so he should have been relying on that listening skill so that he would have known that God was going to change things digging into the richness of this text we find that when God tells him to stop Mourning Samuel pulls himself together and goes on a journey and the journey that he goes on is not different from any of the journey God led a man on because the way God takes men's own journeys is silently God never takes men on a journey with words but I'm trying to show you that Samuels strength was listening but but there's gonna come a journey in your life when even when you listen well and gonna be nothing to listen to and and and and those of us that have built our and our families and our marriages and our businesses every major move of God in the scriptures John John was a prophetic when you find careers and boats and businesses it was all because God said something but here we go God tells a professional listener walk with me until I say something the silent period the silent years it leaves room for a lot of things to come in your heart if you ever want to go crazy find yourself in solitary confinement men snap when they don't have anything to listen to you were born to hear things and and when you can't hear them everything starts to look a little strange and bizarre a professional career listener is walking looking for what he don't know he's looking for this OVA is the primary opportunity for deception when you can't hear God there are chances for you to hear yourself when you can't hear God there are chances for you to listen to your friends maybe that doesn't apply to you there are chances for you to listen to your age your chemistry your chemical clock your race your gender he had options to listen to he gets to the town checked me out through here and because they know what he's known for they were very nervous that he was there they're like this is normally not a good sign if you're not careful Mike people can assume your confidence so dangerous seem to look at somebody and believe that they believe in them strangers to interact with somebody and think as if they know everything that was about to go on this was the most uncertain time in Samuels life and people are like do you come in peace he'll I hope so no I'm here actually to be honest he had no details no direction he was just walking it out with God you're gonna have to find mediocre days where God is not giving you cotton candy and popcorn and he's not giving you peanuts and performing for you you'll never mature unless you learn how to walk it out one of the problems with this generation is that they want God to entertain them all the time it's a weird season I'm not feeling myself no it's not a weird season you're just gonna have some days where the weather is out and you're enjoying yourself and you just got a peace of mind you got to learn how to walk with God there's a lot of people who get saved but don't know how to walk with them it's not going to always be miracles on Monday and faith on Tuesday and wonders on Wednesday sometimes you gonna have a plot Monday or a Tuesday and an ugly Wednesday but you still got to walk this thing because the way God has God has said is he watches how you walk to determine what you can have done he watches how you want to determine what you can have nets and if you don't work it out you may miss a miracle not not not not Jesse comes to the door oh Lord the blood of Jesus father forgive me have you ever had a real prophet walk up on you and before you say hello you start repenting of everything you did have you ever seen me walk down the stairs and look at your direction and trying to look the other way to make sure as you know I'm a different one there's very few things I won't say you know people gonna all know the blood of Jesus you know Jesse now is confronted with his pass he new to the arrival of Samuel could be dangerous because there were no secrets he could not hide the fact that there was an aged son he knew that there was going to be trouble so he hurried up hey don't try to hide the past but in case you ain't noticed God when you don't have reconciliation with your pass revelation is going to find you God never opens the future to a man who denies or denounces where he's been your history must be healed in order for you to handle where God wants you to go Samuel calm is like hey Jesse I have word from the Lord that I'm supposed to anoint a new thing God has sent me here I don't know who he's sending me for but I'm a listener so I'm certain I'm going to know it a Lia Abinadab they all come forward and I want you to pay attention firstborn to the exact statement of Samuel surely this is the Lord's anointed he's known the voice of God all his life he was raised by the voice of God grew up in the presence of God best friends and crisscross applesauce with the Angels and he gets in front of a suitable option and in all of that accuracy surely this is the Lord's anointed I imagine Jesse does like this shoe starts to prematurely applause but one of the patterns of God is he never anoints what's obvious it's never going to be a piece you will think this is the place this is the route this is the way and as soon as you try to anoint the wrong thing select the wrong thing consecrate the wrong thing there is a lesson coming in your life he goes through the process and he all most misses God some of the most important turning points in your life are going to be right around a great mistake God has a way of using almost almost spouses almost careers almost journeys almost he has a way of getting in the the last centimeter of an almost to give you a very profound lesson now it is obvious that David was about to be anointed but Samuel was the one that was about to be promoted David was anointed and not promoted he stayed with that oil on his head for several years after that you can have the anointing and not the position you will be selected before you ready this is why we need readiness training to help us manage our season of development I have a word for you I got to finish this the word of the Lord to you is don't despise your obscurity you need to work on embracing the season of a life that you're in because it won't always be like this there's gonna be a day when you're not gonna have the time to get ready and you're not gonna have the space to get ready and you're not gonna have the room to manage and hold on to your obscurity cherish because God is perfecting you before people can critique you and he's setting you up so that when you are in the seat you don't do it wrong samuel was about to be promoted first major profit last major judge but God has something else in mind for Samuel the test of God 2 Samuel was can you see the hearts of men because God will bring you to one point and then give you a test to see how well you see hearts if you see hearts you become less critical if you see hearts you become less impatient the problem with our culture is we are so sufficient we come from surficial teaching surficial churches people preach whole sermons over half a verse and we shall we don't know anything beyond the surface but we raise surface children we have surface relationships we are afraid of anything that requires depth venturing into something that is not invisible makes us afraid and God set Samuel up - no you're not going any further until I can trust you with hearts put that there now let me talk to you do you realize that God will hide your future until your heart is right he will he will make sure that even though he wants it that he does not release it until your heart is right you couldn't tell me that Samuel would have thought he was surficial this is discernment captain of the world he top-flight security of the world he walks on everybody and sees everything but yet he must have had a problem with prejudging something before its time he must have had an issue you know when somebody sees the future it's hard to teach them stuff because you can't catch them off-guard when people see the future like me I hate surprises don't ever surprise me if I send surprises I'm gonna try to surprise you with your surprise you're not gonna get me on like it I don't like to I need to be prepared to try I need to be prepared to have fun don't try to play now behind my back I'm just that way it's an issue assuming I don't care samuel had the same exact thing but god paul samuel to make him more sensitive i don't know who I'm talking to but get ready God's about to talk to you differently than how he used to if you were relying on dreams is about to stop if you were reliant on prayer is about to stop if you could only hear God and worship watch him change how he talks to you because when you get used to hearing it you develop a certain tendency to stubbornly hold on to how the information comes but there is a fluidity coming to how God talks to you and how he communicates to you he's gonna talk to you through weird things he gonna talk to you through friends through babies through children he's gonna talk to you to movies he's gonna talk to you through Bill boys he's gonna talk to you to show you how big he is and you will watch as your world is surrounded by the wisdom of God and you won't be able to turn it off I almost missed it looking at something from the outside I almost missed it judging it for how it looked I almost missed it some of you are complaining about not having friends we're probably the greatest relationship of your life could be sitting next to you but because your surficial and you befriend for status you miss out on quality because I'm almost missing it some of you are looking watch me remember God told Moses I preached this last week God told Moses throw that piece of wood into the water everybody else would walk past the will I know that's dumb I can't use that but there was use and something that was not obvious your greatest relationships are gonna be by surprise your greatest affiliations are gonna catch you off guard is gonna be I had no anticipation of getting to know you of wanting to be around you of wanting to be under it's gonna be such a shock because God is committed to teach listening people to see hearts major major part of your potential is heart recognition if you can see the heart of a people you can build a thing that they need some people build businesses because they need it this is my hobby my crap what I like but you don't build stuff because you enjoy your building because they need it and if you build something that they need it will not go bankrupt it's a matter of them how many people do you know right now that here god but have a heart issue how many people do you know that's more mad at people than the Lord is I repent tell the Lord I'm not doing again he releases me and I gotta work for you I gotta prove that I'm worthy of your forgiveness I gotta earn being around y'all that's fine but what you realize is God will never bind you to exhausting relationships you know how I almost missed it working harder for people than they were willing to work for themselves this is the season in your life where you only get in the ring with people who are already there you are too old to be forcing people to fight to be helped to fight to be loved it's exhausting is training and why are you trying to help them they are hurting you get in the ring with people whose gloves are all get in the ring with people who've been practicing waiting on your arrival don't miss God's assuming that this is the one I almost missed it Jenny when my wife and I got married the first year I know everybody loves her hate all nations now then we were still a very small thing I'd be we may have had 20 people on Sundays it was a good Sunday if we had $300 it was praise worthy fam Church out of Dallas called me hey we're looking for black church planters and we need a poster child they had a major black pastors a predominantly Caucasian denomination where just had a divorce yeah like 20,000 members and they took his building took his money and so they needed a poster child now they're like come fly to Dallas you have to remember it's my first year of marriage my wife in our living the condo probably smaller than my office now Church says come we'll give you $100,000 $20,000 moving bonus a Benz and a house from 6424 South Langley Avenue my mama was a black disciple I'm used to heroes on Cottage Grove it was a good day for me to sit on fire hydrants in my block when you got your bike stove you went back outside to play as if that did not just traumatize you we don't have pets we name our pigeons we cater for cats and dogs so we play with the rats we we we we sit outside and we play church until this time for I was ready to go I was driving my Grandmama's van and then my mama's beretta I was ready to go I'm like a Mercedes a whole Mercedes all you will all you want me to do is sign my life over that's all I got do all I gotta do is sign my future that's me no problems out yes got to Dallas preach through tears worship through tears knowing this god I think I probably preached one of my greatest messages that day through the nagging knowledge this is not God I went home I use several profanity words with no bleep I cussed myself out you dumb blankety-blank on the blank did you miss out on this out of beach Oh blame what kind of idiot is you use a blank this is stupid blank we miss a lesson in this text when Samuel could not see if you miss this you miss everything he sacrificed when he got to the edge of the city they said you come in peace he said yeah come sacrifice with me I advise will help you see if you're ever feeling blind give God an offer if you ever need confirmation lay something down if you ever need more detail build an altar that's our problem we spend more time in the panic of it in the nervousness of it in the fear of it even in the VDB be the nervosa just the unnerving is in it the panic attack of it that we don't build altars we be a worry we think about everything that could go wrong we have heart palpitations about the next season when it could all be settled through the power of a sacrifice you see the way the Lord built you was to find a certain level of peace in a certain type of place Samuel was used to altars so when he did not know what to do he just did what he knew would work he started to sacrifice I don't know who I'm talking to you may not know how you gonna finish this degree and you may not know how you gonna get your child back and you may not know how you're gonna win your family but there's some things that you do know that word have I hid in my heart that I might not until you know what to do do what works until you know what next do what works if you don't know how you coming out of pornography praise him if you don't know how you're gonna let go of adultery worship Him you got to do what works or to what what makes you this guy is a listener he cannot see people assume his confidence and he's like come purify yourself with me I believe the sacrifice is what really situated him to see right it had to be God told him take a heifer get you a cow give me an all free because this lesson is about your flesh I don't promote men in the flesh I promote spiritual men in the natural there's things that God is about to do for you naturally that's going to impact that flesh God ain't taking you to the next place with the that carnality and you can be carnal and not in sin it's how you approach life how you approach people what you think what comes out of you in offense what comes out of you in fear if you have one of the wear person's heart is listen to them when they are afraid what they talk about all the possibilities and the and all of that stuff of what you don't realize is it is impacting your potential we're going to the next season you've got to sacrifice I have learned in my life I could i contrast myself to a few biblical figures and we're gonna leave my favorite is Samuel I see some of me and Daniel I think my ministry is a lot like John the Beloved what Samuels life taught me is sacrifice can never get old don't ever get too big to sacrifice don't ever get too strong to sacrifice you build an altar before you build a relationship you build an altar before you build a company if you want a company dedicated to the Lord while its of small give it all to him and here's why the thing you won't give to him will be a weapon against you the one area in your life you can't have will be the area that he uses to Humble you sacrifice is the new sexy sacrifice is the new success sacrifice is the end thing to do it gets you points in heaven God does everything for sacrificial people and they're going to come a moment where you gonna have to learn the difference between being sacrificial and being abused because sometimes when you are sacrificial people think that you have to do everything they want you to do when you want them to do it but you have the right to be sacrificial and have boundaries you have the right to decide when you're going to sacrifice if you're forced to sacrifice it's not an offering it has to be an act of the wheel and act a Bisaya you have to calculate I'm going to build an offering right here I want to encourage you if you are about to start a new degree program a new company somebody's recruited you you have an option before you around something's opened up before you say yes sacrifice Lord this is yours if it's you it's yours if you wanted it's yours it's not about just opportunity it's about offerings I almost missed it in Dallas almost missed it same thing happened with the woman before my wife she was fired she ain't Camilla fam she's fine and she was safe she was not saved I had made up my mind that I was gonna help finish the F and make it a V I was gonna save her she's a model and I got tired of watching nearby around me be am i listen well you know any lift up all for you that let's be old fat well I wish I had a room for the preachers in here when you preach an Agora God come on you like somebody is gonna touch me immediately I mean like right now got tired of going home alone I said hey you'll do good girl and then when you make a decision you start reading stuff to confirm the decision people can find information to support any decision they want seem like when I made my heart up every book I read on marriage justified me doing it without God a man find out the way if God don't find a wife you don't have to be equally yoke you got to have desire and the God's gonna give you a pleases you're my year I deserve to be loved come on - hey baby I'm going to see Joyce Meyer I'm like okay didn't hear from her for three weeks this is the longest Women's Conference I've ever seen what the heck is going on we went from everyday and out back and we're River Oaks Mall and remember the magic photo beside me we had I'm so hood we had t-shirts of each other's pictures on there G reasons though I was base she was booth kids was named not because she wasn't same I'm bringing a church I was like I have to wait a little bit I mean you know I preach I call you up the phone all the introduce it to a few key people that won't go charger [Applause] Marcus that girl called me she picked up the phone number what's up what you been you ever heard somebody with the voice that you know he's about to be so I'm like we can work to anything girl I'm your rock come on tell daddy what's wrong I'm up here and now we can't make it through girl or winnin fire I'm your router done mother said I'm pregnant I said quit we got some I told you Thanks sorry no can't do that bye-bye I almost missed it [Applause] compared to a pregnant woman in front of my church thought the baby was mine I couldn't do that I'm pregnant I said well then there's not when I tell you I got older mother I'm about 30 minutes the first of all fam I want to know who was at the Women's Conference that you ended up pregnant I mean you and you send me pictures of the shirts and the Bulls how in between sessions did you manage to get knocked out lady God has a way of using what you are about to miss to redirect you to what he wants you ought to be grateful for what you all but I think it go crazy I said you want to be grateful for what you there was a lesson and promotion the lesson is God can get you to see what he sees in people in places and opportunities your potential will come out it's all about what you can see you will look at things that look normal and see opportunity there people look at the cities in the world and Christ says I see opportunity the worse it gets outside I know that the more they're going to need us people talk about the school system and how you know they said No Child Left Behind like they left everybody I found myself blaming everything on the system lately just it's the system but it's bad because the Lord told me one day they're going to have an elected school board guess who running guess who's gonna be a part of it it's gonna be me I'm going to do it I'm gonna find myself in as many opportunities for life as possible don't miss God trying to figure it out just walk sacrifice walk sacrifice sir next to Sherry's at your name Cherie is that your name ly scam man stand up you stand there you are today where I was 12 years ago about to miss it God brought you here today not because your friend invited you brought you here today because he wants you to know that he's about to give you some wisdom you are positioned right now for wisdom there is so much opportunity around you that it's confusing it's frustrating because you see about three paths that you could take that could end you up and you're in place but the Lord wants you to know the door that is going to open up is the one you actually don't want and behind the door there's going to be life changing relationships that's going to situate your affairs in such a way where Dead is not going to be a problem for you you're actually going to start I see that you have an interest recently in real estate and properties God's going to start to open up some investments for you and it's going to happen before you knew it and it's just because you've asked the Lord to prove himself to you he's taking you on a challenge and he wants you to know he's going to do for you much more than what you think you need his plan is much larger now I don't know if it's a brother or close friend but I seem to the Lord is touching a very close male in your life who's angry and I feel like
