want to to look at Psalm 23 and 5 he prepares a table before me in the presence of my enemies you anoint my head with oil my cup overflows I want to preach for a little while this morning using as a subject stay hydrated look at the person beside you and tell them on a day like today you need to stay hydrated the core of one's vulnerability is always connected to need our Lord and Savior is the most critical moment while he was dangling on the cross he is humanity peer through his divinity when he gasped I thirst by declaring Father forgive them he was trafficking in that which is sacred but admitting to a deficiency is a human occurrence do you know how difficult it is for many people who are sitting around you to acknowledge and to admit what they need the scriptural sequence exposes that since the Last Supper he was giving nothing to drink the physiological taxation was overwhelming to go from the trauma of betrayal the shock of arrest the anguish of trial and now the exasperation of crucifixion all with no hydration water accounts for 60% of your body and it is essential to every cell and the British Psychological Society's annual convention a report was presented they found that the college students who brought water with them in the exam scored higher marks than their counterparts with no water it's highly recommended by the Institute of Medicine that every adult would practice eight-by-eight I want you to write that down 8x8 ax8 pastor wood is 8 by 8 8 by 8 is to drink 8 8 ounces of water by 8 o'clock at night show challenge for October I'm giving you 2 days to play around with soda beginning on Tuesday I'm challenging you in this sanctuary challenging those or part of our cyber sanctuary that every day you would practice 8 by 8 8 glasses of water by 8 o'clock at night I want to tell you why for reasons why you need to hydrate 4 reasons why you need to hydrate number one is to eliminate toxins while the kidney filters waste from the body the organ requires water to function properly if the kidney doesn't have enough water the waste then becomes trapped in your body when the body is dehydrated the ability to eliminate is diminished adequate hydration prevents constipation infection inflammation and arthritis so many who grapple with both areas at its core can be traced back to dehydration so you need to hydrate number one because it eliminates toxins number two somebody needs this you need to hydrate because it alleviates weight I'm looking down and making eye contact with nobody in alleviates weight in the medical journal of obesity dieters who consumed increased water lost weight sometimes thirst is disguised as hunger I need you to have that again sometimes thirst is disguised as hunger you're not really hungry your body is just dehydrated number one it eliminates toxins number two it alleviates weight number three I need you to have it it prevents attacks heart disease is the leading cause of death for our community the largest contributors are cholesterol and plaque the American Journal of found that drinking more water cuts down on coronary heart disease Jesus declared allow let not your heart be troubled he was assuming you were already drinking water for reasons why you got to hydrate what's the first one come on class what's the first one the second one number three he is the fourth one protects your mind protects your mind the journal entitled frontiers in human neural science provided research that h2o intake enhances brain power that you're able to operate in better cognition and process thinking when it is that you drink helps us to understand the psychosis of the woman at the well who had married all of these different men but still had to go get water because Jesus was really saying to her is clear you ain't thinking straight because the one you wit now and even who you supposed to be Wed but if your man was on right you would already recognize that all the more you don't even know who's standing in front of you because if you knew who was standing in front of you you would never thirst again Psalms 23 Psalm 23 verse number one watch what David enunciates to us he says the Lord is my shepherd and when he's saying the Lord is my shepherd he is making a declaration into the earth that because the Lord is my shepherd I will lack nothing I better drop that right there cuz you just missed it I just need a thousand of you to just declare out loud I will lack nothing I need that to just marinate right in your heart come on would you declare it with a little bit more first force I will lack nothing come on I need you to get that right down into the marrow of your bone because today we are disrupting generational curses not only you hear this but nobody who has your last name will be in the orbit of having to be in need I need you to say it with all apostolic authority I will lack nothing I'm talking about for October November December and I speak it over all of 2020 I need those of y'all that have that kind of crazy faith would you shout it to your bills to your creditors to your credit report shouted out loud will lack nothing said the Lord is my shepherd I will lack nothing look at Psalm 23 I don't want you to take my word for it I need you to see verse number 2 as he leads me by still waters this is significant here this is because he let me by still waters and still didn't let him drink anything [Applause] because God is operating sometimes he needs you hear this to see it before you have it [Applause] and I need you to get in your man what you seek God get ready to do in your life hallelujah whatever it is I need you to know it is a sneak preview of coming attractions just that you don't have it yet don't mean you ain't gonna get it the worst thing that you could have ever done was get exposure when I didn't know no better I didn't dream that much but now that I see what is possible no devil in hell is gonna stop me from achieving what I'm supposed to have he lays me by still waters he restores my soul hallelujah he restores my soul and here's the area that we hopscotch over is he restores my soul here it is for his name sake now don't forget he's operating as my shepherd and he is restoring my soul why cuz his name is on the line now if he is the Shepherd and I am the Sheep there is no way in the world he don't give me my name and then let me get devoured so he gave me his name knowing that there were wolves out there they wanted to devour me but God put his stick in the sand and said alright hold up now you don't come far enough they rollin with me now you should have destroyed them before they got but they are not gonna go crazy they annatto heaven nervous breakdown they are not gonna commit self-sabotage my name is on the line I carry the name of God that that that's why I'm a Christian here it is because that infers I carry his name he was wounded for my transgressions he was bruised for my iniquities the chastisement of my peace is upon his shoulders and back here stripes I am healed God told me to tell you get ready because whatever you ask for here's your shell in my name it shall be giving it to you if two or three are touching and agreeing they shall be also I tell you to grab that neighbor by the head and tell them brace yourself whatever you can afford whatever you didn't meet the requirements up whatever didn't line up with your credit score if you got the name of Jesus yes get ready be given to you together be seated please he restores my soul in the presence of wolves that wanted to see me destroy yay though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I never scared I'm going through it but I'm coming out of it y'all y'all ain't saying nothing to me I need 50 y'all they've been in some near-death experiences but you walked away from it you able to say through it Jesus be seated I'm coming says yay though I walk through the valley now the valley is significant why it is the low place in between mountains if I am in the valley here it is then sunlight is blocked god help me so I'm walking through a dark season where I cannot figure out what is in front of me but what the enemy doesn't realize is I walk by faith and not by sight the reason why your haters can handle you is in spite of what you've been through you still walking like your dad's funk been talking about you but they don't know I'm steppin out the valet they got no idea if God won with me [Applause] since I'm walking you through the valley when David writes this you understand that he's in Israel and Israel's 290 miles in length 85 miles in width and Godhead to walk with me all through Israel and now I get to verse number 5 and when I finished walking and coming out of my dear near-death experience you know was waiting on me on the other side of the valley he prepared the table y'all just missed it he only prepared the table as a sign that I survived what was trying to kill me this is your celebration part that you able to look the devil in and say do you know who you playing with they say my fresh since I appeared a table in the presence of your enemies and here's where we've been for the last eight weeks mac cup runs over and all this time we didn't even understand why mac cup was running over my cup was running over and the Lord kept pouring here it is because he was trying to hydrate me pastor I'm lost I'm glad he kept pouring and I hope 50 y'all will get it because while he was pouring he was getting toxins out of my body [Applause] everything that is in your body out of it in the neck says I'm i'ma keep pouring cuz I gotta get illegal stuff out of your body she said imma keep rolling your cup is running over because I am now eliminating dead weight whoever is attached to you that is not a sign to you I'm getting better to disconnect them from you I'm tired of you being stressed and worried and depressed and anxious but God said when you give me glory the weight is coming off when you give me praise the stress is coming on when you give me a hollow that the brass says I keep pouring cuz I gotta get the toxins out of your body I gotta get the dead weight off of your back here's number three and I hope y'all tear this church up he said I'm poor no water why cuz I am preventing the attacks whatever they enemy's thought he was don't do to you the last three months of the year God said if you give me glory the hey I feel God right through here I need you to pull on that neighbours hair and say neighbor you didn't hear with my pastor just say if you shout again the attack on your life the attack on your children the attack on your health the attack on your father has been canceled this battle is not sauce this battle is [Applause] gosh Shanaya I just need somebody to shout the attackers hold the attack there so [Music] [Applause] says I'm keep on the water cuz I gotta get stuff out of your bout it I gotta eliminate their weight I can't hear no worshipers in here I gotta stop the attack your enemies playing here's the last one I'll know who this is for he said I had to keep pouring water why cuz I needed to safeguard your mind God God I can't hear nobody God said I need you to give me praise touch you like a have another sleepless night I need you to open up your mouth because whatever's being natural yes now be a Brooklyn lift up that hand [Applause] [Music] he said if it was just for you if it was just for you if it was just about you I would have filled the cup you'll miss it I said if he was just about you he would have just filled the cup but he said you don't know how important you are how vital you are how strategic you are he says I hope y'all of receive it I am getting ready to bless whoever is close to you because when your cup overflows whoever is close to you is don't be able to live on the floor that blessing the south the whoever is close I don't I don't want you to limit it so who's sitting next to you on this view this morning but if you may give God glory here me and you only got 30 seconds to do it you can better to worship Him for the people you care about for the people that live in your house for the people that occupy space in your heart God said when you worship me and I hope you'll join in I make heal the bodies of family members I can't hear
