pulpit that comes up about the ground is there something that I push for it to happen yeah it's coming this is cool I've never seen this before it is good to be back in my home state I absolutely love Kentucky I miss it so bad I moved to Nashville Tennessee and but the Lord knows my heart anytime my wife says honey would you like to move back to Kentucky she better know that my bags are already packed I love love Kentucky now Nancy feels great all right I know I'm not gonna keep you very long today and somebody say man I do want to say this you've got to come back for tonight you have to I know a lot of people come on Sunday mornings and they think oh praise God I got that done you know what I mean and but not here okay tonight you got to come back you're gonna hear one of the best vans out of Nashville we absolutely love them and they play with us and they're phenomenal for us my daughters are here and my wife they never come to my concerts they don't they've heard me all their life so they're going to be here I want you to be able to hear my oldest sing as well and we'll have her sing a special as well so and God's doing great things in their life so everybody say it pays it pays to be in the right place it pays to be in the right place amen it pays to be in the right place Jeremiah why don't you just turn to Jeremiah just for a moment Jeremiah I want and let's just start reading for a moment at four and who knows how long we're gonna read so we'll just keep on going number four then the word of the Lord came to me saying before I formed thee awake is ever I got it good before I let's see formed thee in the belly I knew thee and before thou cometh forth out of the wound I think if I do you know I deign be a prophet unto the nations then says I Lord God behold I cannot speak for I am a child but the Lord said unto him say not that I am a child for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak all right I love this passage of Scripture love it I love it for a lot of reasons number one I felt like Jeremiah pretty much in the beginning of my life and still do today a lot of times because I feel so unworthy I mean of speaking and preaching because here's the thing I grew up with a great preacher in my house which was my daddy he was my pastor he was my corrector he was the man that I followed and he was really good I listened to you know TD jakes growing up and and RW schambach and those great a a Allen's that would what would speak and and and I'm thinking man I can't preach but I can't speak and see here's the problem I started comparing myself to all of those but God did not call us to comparisons he called us to what he has for us the cool thing about this passage of scripture before you were formed in your mother's belly you were already a thought of God you are already a thought of God he already knew you in that amazing he knew what color hair that you were going to have how tall you were gonna be how pretty you were gonna be how pretty you were gonna be a man he already had you planned out you know what I'm saying he knew you before and guess what else there's some DNA there that he knew about - he knew your calling he knew what you were called - he knew your destiny he knew your purpose he knew everything about you matter of fact I believe heaven was excited a lot of people you know I love this passage of Scripture and my mind just wonder sometimes but I really wonder what happened when when you took your first little breath and first little cry you know I know that maybe the nurses and the and the doctors you know they heard a little familiar sound right I believe the gates of Hell shook I believe demons tremble but wait I can see something you know what are you talking about here's what I'm talking about I believe the very moment that you let your first crime your first little whimper out I believed the gates of Hell started shaking and said oh no they're here oh no they're alive the ones that we've been hearing about they're here you kidding me let's leave beaver dam Kentucky Kentucky yes you yes you yes you not only the gates of hell shaking trouble but I believe angel stood to attention and said all listen to that there's another one of God's creations as they applaud why because God doesn't make any junk everything is perfect in God's alignment his timing is perfect everything is right it's awesome it's awesome it's amazing you are somebody you are something special turn to your neighbor right now and say neighbor you're something special come on now something y'all didn't really you really didn't act like it come on tell them tell your neighbor right now say neighbor you're something special mm-hmm yes you are yes you are you see the thing is a lot of us base all of this off of feeling feeling emotion look I love more than anything a good service I love it when the Holy Ghost falls in a building I love it more than anything you talk about getting filled up Holy Spirit falls in the building man you can get more out of that service than any I mean a hundred services you could just if the glory of God truly falls which I believe is gonna fall this more if the glory of God really Falls get ready you you can be enlightened to the to the mysteries of God into what he has in store for you but here's what I'm told I'm gonna talk to you about just for a second what happens when the lights goes out what happens when this beautiful by the way your praise and worship band first class [Applause] what happens when it's out and you about into the middle of Monday right and all hell's breaking loose around you it's feeling feelings feelings our feelings our emotions is a mess sometimes Tuesday you work in a job and you know that person right besides you is getting on your nerves you understand what I'm saying mm-hmm you've been cut off three or four times trying to get to work and the next thing you know you get the wonderful California howdy out the window at you in a way that Vietnam you think it's bad around here go to Nashville they're horrible they'll yell at you for no reason I had one guy stop his car in the middle of the road his anger was so bad slit it sideways and stopped and got out of his car and started coming at me because he thought I was a little close to him I thought you come any closer and you're gonna feel how quotes I'm guessing I have my babies in the car you understand what I'm saying hey I got my card now I'm down my card now somebody say yeah you've got your crazy card it don't matter what you call it I got it so here's the deal yeah you know at that moment sometimes you're calling you don't feel called you don't look at the scripture and go yeah if God has a purpose for me I don't feel it right now matter of fact I don't even feel saved you ever been there before three or four people in it okay not me I feel saved all the time really come on feelings and emotions are like this like the good stock market you know what I'm talking about it just up and down up and down just like a roller coaster ride praise God for a good stock market hey man but you know what I'm talking about let's just talk about the roller coaster it is up and down up and down and that's what life is about an emotion is it's like sometimes but it doesn't mean it's the truth the deal is that you've got to feed yourself so much the truth that it drowns out the emotion that you're feeling when you're in the middle of your day in on a Wednesday on a Tuesday in the middle of you know what I'm saying it's like you need to start going I am an overcomer by the blood of the Lamb why because I have confessed my sins that one I just talked about and I have asked the Lord to forgive me I'm covered by the blood and who the Sun sets free is that's true emotion it's like sinking sand you'll go yeah I'm telling you but the truth is the truth is that you were formed you were designed you were called in your mother's womb before you ever even open your eyes God left his fingerprint on you during here at this very moment at this very day out of all of the timeline that you could have been born in think about this I mean I always look back and thought man the fifties would have been nice you know I'm saying I think I had the hair for it you know and I could do that curl my goodness I'm out slick it back baby and get that you know that let that Elvis leg going and do it you know what I'm talking about of course I can't dance but I'd have to work on it but I mean and going and driving there's 57 Chevys you know what I mean I think it's cool wouldn't have to worry about anything except a white t-shirt and some blue jeans hallelujah felt like a big no I wouldn't call them then God didn't have that time for me maybe send me y'all some of y'all before that well you're here now why is it that God hand-picked you for this moment for this time but I want to pinpoint the importance of you I wanna I wish I could just I wish I could let you see what God really wants for your life oh just for a second cuz you couldn't handle it all just for a moment just for a just like that I'm gonna tell you something this is a truth God has blessed me I've been all over the country been all over the world to be honest I grew up in Beaver Dam Kentucky ain't much there except a dream you know what I'm saying I love it I go back there I love it more than anything a rocking chair a glass of sweet tea and the Andy Griffith Show that's my life that's not look I love it that's me do that get me on off also a Martin acoustic guitar and I'm telling you I could stay there for years right that's just me I love that but I'm telling you been all over the world who would ever thought some body like man would have ever been called to see thousands upon thousands come to know Jesus listen I was a nobody that's funny teachers now I'll go back go back home they go oh I just knew God had something special for you you just one of my favorites and I'm like well what happened when I was out in the hall and he was wearing me out with that what what was the dealing why would you always tell me to the principal's office Jason I mean why did always hear that you know yeah but it's funny I'll go back and go oh I just knew he's gonna be something I was like anyway just funny how things people that couldn't stand you now hey buddy what's up not a whole lot really but but here's what I'm saying is I was probably one of the most least likely not to succeed in life and I know that but God but God had a purpose and a plan for my life I do know that it's amazing and I'm thankful for it but here's the thing that I do know to God be all of the glory because I know who I am without him which is a giant mess I'm talking about an ugly horrible nasty mess that's me without the grace of mercy of God I probably wouldn't be alive today had it not been for him you see there's something about the scripture what happened if Jeremiah would have said okay but no yeah that's probably for somebody else you called me to this and I'm going to tell you something there is people right now sitting under the sound of my voice in this house that every time you come into a church house you get fed but you feel more than that and you're saying yeah not me maybe somebody else yeah not me maybe somebody else nah not me I'm not I'm just a child I can't speak I don't have the education that I need I don't have the finances that I need I don't have the pedigree and you've got all of all of the excuses one preacher said do you know what and all of the buts it's like yeah but yeah but yeah but well and one God said he said how about putting your bucks on the altar this morning all right the altar today why because there's people that needs you here's the thing I'm going to tell you a little story is that okay I got I got mitt what time do we need to be out here at 10:30 right so I need okay this this is cool I never get to speaking in and also I'm just like yes and then I'm going okay so all right so here's the cool thing I want to share a story with you all right I want to share a story about importance and about how much God loves you and about how much that he would you he will do everything in his power to search you out find you where you are now listen to this I was at the Grammys now this is a fun little story I'm going to tell you an instance with me at the Grammys praise God I love going to the Grammys especially when we're up for one and we get to take one home how long will ya man it's just a blessing and we just got to with this last record that y'all are gonna buy little later on yeah so anyways the last one but the one before that I'll never forget the first Grammy that we won I was there and I was so excited got to walk the red carpet walk the carpet with everybody but you could imagine I'm telling you Aerosmith walk by yes they did in in there and then there goes beyond saying I'm like and and we're walking the red carpet with all of these people you know I remember seeing all of them and in everybody that you can imagine and I looked over at my wife and one of the moments and I said baby I said yeah you know I feel like we're gonna stick out you know a little you know what I'm saying because I got this y'all and yeehaw kind of boys you know what I mean and I'm getting ready to be interviewed by Joan and Melissa rivers at the moment now think about that last name crab last name crab I seen gospel music and the last name crab and look at what I'm wearing I had this big ugly crazy show anyways so I'm thinking I turned them all and I said baby I think we're gonna stick out a little too much you know down here and turn around look and there's things Lady Gaga with a scepter or something in her hand and she was wrapped she was wrapped in aluminum fall and looked like the Statue of Liberty something I said I turned back to my wife I said baby I don't think I'm gonna stick out near enough now do you so anyways so so we went to art part of the deal they put us on before you know they don't show it on the big TV you know we're gospel so one day I think the Lord's gonna change that around and they're going to show some gospel [Music] [Applause] versus all the other masses but anyways pray about that but after we had one I went up and accepted and I said God is the giver of all great gifts I love you Jesus and I got to mention his name and so it was really really really cool was an incredible moment and I'll never forget it and I said and this is truth to God be all the glory all of it all of it alright so so we fast forward so we're there we're staying two days after that right we're staying in LA and we're going okay what are we gonna do for two days to celebrate right and so somebody said hey let's go let's go to the price is right what a way to celebrate women agreement so we go to the prices right and so yeah I mean because look it's dear to my heart that was one of the only things that I got to watch you know growing up on TV we had two channels you remember that that antenna out on the end of the house and you would have your child run out there which would have been me and run out there and go can you turn the antenna a little bit smooth and there you're yelling through the house right because it's on the other end of the house hold it through their whole program you know what I mean some of you young uns don't understand what I'm talking about but it's true and so anyways The Price is Right seemed like it was always on and so I thought man I might get to spend the big wheel nope didn't get to spin the wheel you might say what's that got to do with the point at time here's what I'm going to tell you as we are standing there waiting to get to go in for the prices right it was about five o'clock we got up to go and get in line we get there about 6:00 something standing there in line in and you have to wait for about three hours I think about this to get into the prices right you're standing there for about three hours you have to show up before a lot of other people show up or you have no chance of getting in you wouldn't believe the lines you wouldn't believe it so anyway we're standing there and I'll get thirsty and I'm thinking man I'm thirsty all of a sudden I don't know if the Lord sent this little guy and from heaven or what but here comes a little guy he's pushing a little cart hot dog cart praise God then all of a sudden got hungry grants a and so he's pushing the cart aside and he went over to the side and my family my wife is there and my manager and my sister and all standing there in line and I said y'all hold our spot I'm gonna go get something to drink so I I went up and I was gonna get something to eat too I just didn't wanna tell him and so I got in line and I'm standing there and I'm waiting to order right and I'm waiting to ordered because it already had a line this bus pulls up alright the bus pulls up I don't pay much attention to it but anyways it just kind of a content have you ever felt like somebody was just staring at ya you know what I mean there's a site and you didn't want to be like over-the-top rude or anything but the bus pulls up the door opens and in this guy he's just kind of looking so I turned to him I said hey buddy because I know you and I'm thinking no probably not I'm from Beaver Dam Kentucky we're in LA you probably don't know me you know that me and he goes no I know you I saw you I saw you when I was in prison you were on TV in and you were singing a song called through the fire he said I know that you and I'm thinking well Shazam he does know me so anyway we started talking and that was a rehab center that they had all got together in was doing an outing because he was fighting drug addiction and they were all together and they were coming to the price is right so anyways I'm standing in line you know and he sees it and we talked for a minute and Christopher this is what I say to y'all I said how are you doing now you doing okay no I'm a mess young man young man good looking young man but you could tell seeing and taking its toll on him you know what I mean so anybody I keep talking to him and I said can I tell you something I looked at him and I said God has a plan for your life he said did you just hear me he said I'm in a drug rehab I just got out of prison how can God have a plan for it I said he does I'm telling you he does I got ready to go in I got my drinks and stuff I didn't think much more about it I'm getting ready to go in I see him again I said I'm telling you God's got a plan for your life get ready and it just like a a whisper in my ear he said God said he's really the whole reason you're even here and I went no wait a minute I thought it was for the Grammys I thought it was for spending the big wheel which I didn't get to do no it was for that young man that was in a rehab center - just tell him that God has a plan for his life now you might say man that is a long story no look here's the deal you got to understand every footstep every moment every minut second everything had to be lined up even their ideas the clothes the emotions of everything God will manipulate everything that he has to just to get you to stand in line for a hot dog and a soft drink for a blue [Applause] why because he does why because it's important why because I'm telling you I'm telling you if you would only know what God has for you if you could see
