When it ends better than it started | Pastor Keion Henderson

yeah Matthew 14 and 14 if you got to say I got it you're still looking say hold up Matthew that shows that that first that's that first book at a New Testament touching them say that way that way that way Matthew 14 and 14 the Bible says and Jesus went forth and saw a great multitude and was moved with compassion towards them and healed their sick and then when it was evening his disciples came to him saying this is a desert place and the time has now passed send the multitude away in other words they're getting on our nerves send them away have you ever wondered somebody just getaways it send them away that they may go to the villages and buy their own food y'all gonna have a lot of people at your house a day you're gonna be one of the Lord just send them away hey man but they're here today a man but jesus said unto them they need not depart feed them and they said unto Him what we all have anything but to fish and five loaves of bread jesus said bring them to me and he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass and took five loaves and two fishes and looking up to heaven he blessed and broke and gave the bread to the disciples you can't miss that he never gave the bread to the people we've been saying all this time Jesus fed the 5,000 yeah okay he blessed it and he broke it but he did not feed them oh god help me in this place he gave it to the disciples and the disciples distributed it to the multitudes and they did all eat and they were all full and they took all of the fragments that remained and put them in twelve baskets and the baskets were full and they that had eaten were about five thousand men besides the women and the children I want to talk about when it ends better than it started I want you to touch everybody on your way down to say this year may have started off rough for you but God sent me to tell you it's about to end better Oh help me in this house it's going in better than it started you may be seated in the presence of the Lord throughout Christendom men through theological dissertations and discussions amongst those who call themselves the household of faith Christians Church attenders there is this compilation of conversations that there are just a few stories in the Bible that whether you're new to the church or whether you have been in church your whole life whether you speak in tongues or whether you speak in English there's just certain stories that everybody knows everybody knows about Daniel and the Lions Dan you don't have to be saved to know that one everybody knows about the Hebrew boys and the fiery furnace and everybody knows about Moses and Abraham and Isaac and Jacob they're just certain stories the woman with the issue of blood we know about that one and there's just certain scriptures that everybody can quote the Lord is my shepherd look at you you're already finishing it no weapon I was young there are just certain scriptures that roll off of the tongues of those who have said in the pews for multiplicity of years throughout history you were raised in church your mama made you go to church as soon as you could get grown you stopped going and now you're back it's a cycle that all of us have been through and likewise this story about the 5000 not including the women and the children happens to be one of those stories that has wide spectrums of acceptance throughout the church world we all have heard about the 5000 not including the women and the children the problem is is we have gotten at a junction and have gotten into the traffic jam of believing that this miracle is all about the food when in actuality the food is only the worm it is the bait that brings us to understand that after Jesus does this miracle by feeding them with the physical loaves he then goes into the next chapter and preaches about him being the bread of life because the physical bread was only to solve the hunger so that they could hear about the spiritual bread there was a sermon that he preaches in the next chapter in Capernaum as he begins to talk about him being the bread of life and that no one goes to the Father except by him see that's one thing that God is good at he solves your immediate problem so that he can solve your eternal situation he'll he'll show up and and heal and heal heal the issue but with about the blood but it was never about the blood it was it was about the blood of Jesus you understand it it he'll show up and and he'll heal your blinded eyes but it was never about your sight it was about your vision so what he does is he comes and he solves one problem so that you can see that there was a bigger problem he solves the bread problem so he can solve the crisis he solves the hunger because when you are hungry you cannot hear oh god help me in this place when you have a need when you have an appetite when you have a desire for something when your stomach or when your feelings are when your emotions are thriving are are desiring something then all of your other faculties begin to shut down so God says I'm not going to throw my pearls to swine and I don't want anybody to miss the Sun I don't want them to miss the sermon because they heard their stomach so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna solve stomach problems so they can hear what the Spirit has to say to the church and so he shows up and he takes two fish and five loaves of bread and he breaks it and he blesses it and he gives it to them and the Bible lets us know in galatians chapter 3 verse 28 and he says that there is neither no more slave nor free nor no no more male or female there is no more Jew no more Gentile and why is this important because if you look at Matthew chapter 14 his first miracle that we're talking about here he is now feeding 5,000 people in a Jewish area but then if you go back to chapter 15 you discover that he performs another miracle in a Gentile area see God came that there be no more Jew no more Gentile no more female no more male no more slave no more free and so in order to make sure that his resume is substantial he not only comes to show us that he is a teacher and a preacher but he also shows up that he might see that he is a healer that he is that he is more than just teaching and preaching that he is the bread of life that he is the true vine that he is the savior of the world anybody know him to be a savior and so this text shows us God giving us a shout of pointing back towards where he came from for the fact that there are 12 baskets of fish that are left over it's really not about the fish is God really saying I can feed the 12 tribes of Israel you see he's really showing us that there are shadows and types that that he is no more just to God to Abraham Isaac and Jacob but he is also the God to Paul and he's also the God to Silas and that he's also your God such a name and say he's my god too so he comes and the veil is torn and the church is now open to those who are not just Jews but those who come from fifth Ward and fourth Ward and those who come from City gasp and people who were born in Gary Indiana and people who come from the north and the south he comes and kicks the door open on his own organization because the people tried to hijack the church and lock those of us who are not born of Jewish descent out but I am so glad that we serve a God that does not treat me based on how other people treat me such the neighbors say I don't deserve to be in but I'm so glad God let me in and I speak to somebody in here today they got us to open doors that no man can shut and it's gonna shut doors that no man can open somebody say god bless me in this place and so he uses this moment as a prophetic mechanism to let us know that he is a way maker that he is a miracle worker that he is a promise keeper and that he is the light in the darkness and I'm looking at some of you are maybe salvation to you is something that you can overlook and and and whenever I see people who are not excited about salvation I know they don't have it because when you think about where you ought to be and when you think about what God has saves you from and when you think about who you really are and you still get to go to heaven anyways Lord I'm gonna talk to somebody over here some of y'all came to church today you think God are you something you think you're going to heaven because you don't cuss to them or you think you're going to heaven because you don't sleep around no more you think you're going to heaven because you're not gonna have no freshman there let's rock today you think you going to heaven because you're gonna finally not drink this Thanksgiving Rama tell some of y'all y'all gonna be sober today and still go to hell and it's gonna be some here that's gonna be drunk and still go to heaven why because it is not about my works but I am saved by grace and when you recognize that you are saved by grace you start to give God glory in the midst of it slap somebody and say I'm glad I'm saying I don't know if there's anybody in here I don't have to preach anything else I don't have to take another text I don't have to read another verse if I can get 300 people to shout at thank God that no matter what God is still got his hand on you that's you are still saved by grace that's you are not perfect but you are saying that's your not where you want to be but you are saved somebody shout I'm glad I'm saying and so one thing we must settle one thing we must settle is that the critics and the Scholastic critics of yesterday in history suggests that that there is not two miracles because you know the Bible talks about him feeding 5,000 and 4,000 and some suggest that is a misnomer and a mistake that a story has been told so much you know how in a story get told it'll never keep you know you know the guy when he when he actually played the basketball game he scores seven points had three rebounds but by the time he tell his grandchildren he had 45 points and 17 rebounds and he was on his way to the NBA and he got hurt you know had that thing just anybody know how the story expands if I if I whispered right here in sister Kim's ear and told her story and she told everybody by the time we get to the back I can tell her God loves you about I might get back there there somebody would say faster he ain't coming to church little moan you know the story just changed and so as people continue to tell the story about the 5,000 some critics say no it was two stories and he fed he didn't feed just a 5,000 feet 4,000 the story got over told he only performed the miracle once but there's actually proof that there's two miracles because he feeds the 5,000 watch this taking it back to where we began he feeds the 5,000 in Jewish territory but he feeds the 4,000 in suit and Gentile territory showing us watch this Jews are God's chosen people I'm about to help somebody in here today so he goes and he feasts 5,000 chosen people and then goes and feasts 4,000 rejected people all because God shows us not only does he feed the chosen but he also chooses who he feeds I wish I had somebody in here that will give your labor high five and say I'm blessed because I was chosen do I have any chosen people in here I didn't come from a good family my mom and daddy wasn't married I don't know who my parents are we didn't come from a rich place I don't come from names and notoriety but I'm here today because I've been chosen with all of the chosen people spill about 30 seconds giving God somebody shout that's favor favor is unmerited grace I can't explain why he loves me I cannot explain why he cares and you know what I'm done trying to explain it all I know is that God has been good to me is there anybody in the lighthouse today all things given want to give God thanks that you might not have been chosen but thank God he chose you God is he just he just picks people to bless some of y'all don't even know you're about to be randomly selected for a miracle you don't deserve it you haven't earned it you're not living up to the standard but God gonna say you know what I pick them I pick you to be blessed what is it what manner of man is this you see they're gonna look at you say why are you why God why why they being blessed what what what did they do nothing he just picks you so y'all don't know you don't know where the shout you don't know where the shout touched them to say I've been picked I've been picked it ain't my fault it ain't my fault I'm this cute just tell him it ain't my fault I didn't mean to beat it's fine tell him it ain't my fault I didn't mean a head it's my swag he made me like this I didn't mean the beaters bless he picked me if it was up to what I was I wouldn't have it if it was up to my attitude I would have lost it but thanks be to God then I'm picked for this he feeds those who were chosen and then he turns around and chooses who he fees and these people that other people say they don't deserve it I said I didn't ask you I didn't ask you I didn't ask you should I bless them I did it under my own volition and on my own will anybody had glad that God don't ask people about what he ought to do for you and is there anybody here that knows that you got more than you deserve going further than you then you have earned I just need you to just give God if you don't do nothing else just thank them that you have been shows and slap your neighbors have been chosen i've been chosen the next time we see this text Jesus when we read this text the Bible says that Jesus is tired go to mark chapter 6 31 when you get home the Bible said that there were so many people coming at Jesus that there were so many people coming to him you know because when you perform one miracle everybody won't one so so so he feeds the a few people now everybody coming because as I was I was related to Mary back in the day you know you know so now all of a sudden you got people coming from everywhere and-and-and the Bible says that he was so tired and bombarded by the people that he didn't have time to eat so that's what happens when you serve some of y'all gonna be serving today and you're gonna be the last one to eat you're gonna be making sure that everybody else is okay but watch this all the people you serve very few of them are gonna say sit down and eat something for yourself they just gonna let you serve them they gonna let you serve they're gonna eat all your food they dange gonna offer to clean up they can eat all your food they're gonna walk all over your floor they're gonna leave dishes everywhere their kids gonna put their little nasty hands on your couch they gonna do nothing ain't gonna say nothing some of y'all ain't sayin a man I'm talkin bout your son that's why yes all right that's all right just get it together before we get out of here a man Church my Bible says that he was so tired that that that that he didn't even have an opportunity to eat so he says to the disciples he says come with me so we can get away from these people and get some rest even Jesus got tired of people amen he said he got tired in and and the Bible says forty came over him but watch this then all of a sudden five thousand people show up hungry and Jesus climbs over his fatigue climbs over his attitude climbs over his disposition and serves the people are you with me so far the Bible says a multiplicity of times that Jesus had compassion on them you remember there were two blind men and the Bible says that Jesus saw the two blind men and he had compassion on them you remember the widow at name the Bible says that he sees the widow woman and he has compassion for her remember when the Bible talks about the leper that nobody else would touch nobody else would talk to nobody else we'll deal with the Bible says that Jesus had compassion on him even in his parables the Bible lessons know that God is compassionate if you read Matthew chapter 18 you remember the king had compassion that was a servant had went bankrupt and he old the King the debt and the Bible says that he had compassion on him and forgave his dead I'm getting ready to help somebody in here and then in Luke chapter 10 there was a Samaritan who was who was walking on the wayside the Bible says that the preachers passed him up in the church folk passed him up but but the Samaritan went to him after they had beat him and left him half dead and and he had compassion on him are y'all with me so far and then the Bible talks about a father who had a son who wanted all of his inheritance and he left and spent all of his money and riotous living but he decided he wanted to come home and the Bible says that when the father saw him afar off he did not remind him what he did the Bible says that the father ran out and hugged the prodigal son and had what compassion on him when I began to read those three things God gave me a word for you today that there are three things that God is getting ready to bless in your life the Bible says number one he forgave a debt number two the Bible says that he sent help for a man who was beaten half to death and number three the Bible says that he forgave a man for his mistakes and in the next season of your life God told me he's about to do three things in your life forgive your debts are y'all not here with me today send you somebody to help you and forgive you for all the others let me talk to somebody over here it's about to get better for you touch your neighbor setting this next season guys about to help you with your money God's about to send you somebody who's going to help you and he's gonna forgive you for your sins I don't know who I'm talking to in the light house but in the next year you're going

always tell about what goes on in the dark comes in the light do you know that God so that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard in my life that's just for spiritual illiterate people God ain't ever been about exposing people and if what's done and the dark does come to the light Jesus is the light I'm glad it's coming to the light slap you'll never sound Brad is coming to the light cuz he's got the only light that covers use your imagination five thousand okay raise your hand if you hunger in here okay it ain't even five thousand of us in here right now but if we get a little more hunger

don't play with me I know you the disciples knew that Jesus was powerful enough to solve the problem but they never asked him for help they looked around and they say man we got five thousand hungry folks out here it's okay man go Judas go check the money you know he was the accountant Judas said man we ain't got about a couple hundred pennies up here so we can't feed all these people we don't have enough resources to feed the people ain't even ask God for his help so they start taking inventory of their own supply and one of them said well it is look dude around here you know your lunch they ain't safe when I'm hungry Oh y'all missed that whole thing you got to be careful when you got meat around hungry people that's why you got to make sure that everybody in your Friendship Circle ain't hungry because see when when everybody you hang around is hunger they eat your stuff so he say they said all right little boy come up off of it that's debo bite LeDoux got his last day like nah bro hey you give it or we gonna take it little boy I don't want no trouble disciples I don't want to decide I don't want no trouble so he gave up his lunch and they when they went over their names like all right we got two fish and five loaves everybody like it's 5,000 people out here not including y'all listening to me today when they considered the time of day it was evening and the place it's a desert they decided there is nothing we can do for the people and they said Jesus as your Council of Advisors we have a suggestion for you sinem away get rid of them they're hungry and it ain't our fault we got to fish five Louis that's enough for us I'm trying to open up your mind say use your imagination it's enough fuss all right drew don't eat as much as you ate last time we're gonna break off this bread we're gonna break off this fish just keep that in the family but these are the five thousand they're going to go for what they know I mean can't say the world how many y'all have been talking like that come on that y'all set up the timer that's the same if it was two fish and five loaves of bread in here and it was and all of us was hungry and the bread was in your hand who would you start who would you say who would you say hey bruh you my dog and all that but jesus paid it all today my job to feed you you know it's the Lord send him away Andrew found a little boy with a lunch the board gave him a lunch the Bible says God took the lunch from the disciples he blessed it lord thank you for this food we're about to receive for the nourishment of our body he broke it then I recognize that the blessing is in the breaking that when God breaks you he's trying to distribute you that's the reason why God keeps breaking you he's because he wants you in more than one place he wants you in more than one city he doesn't he doesn't he does he doesn't just want you to have clients in your surrounding areas hehe he wants to break you so they'll come from the east to west and north in the south do I have anybody here that's trying to do something be just give your name how father say the blessing is in the breaking it was good that I was afflicted that I might know the statues of God the blessing is in the breaking the more God bricks you down the more he can build you up the blessing is in the breaking those shattered moments in life where you don't know whether you're going to come in those moments when you are so confused you lay awake at night with anxiety and you're wondering why God why hast thou forsaken me and you don't understand that with every lash and with every tear of the skin and with every breaking there was a bigger purpose that God cannot accomplish to you until you were broken enough to be distributed he breaks to bread and he says to them give it to me I'm gonna multiply it but I am NOT going to distribute it he says the distributing is up to you see the reason while the world is still hungry is because God took it he blessed it and he broke it but then he gave it to you God says you are not the manufacturer but you are the distributor and God told me to tell somebody in this church today get ready because God is getting ready to take the blessing he's gonna break it and he's gonna multiply then he's gonna give it to you to distribute it some of y'all need to get ready because the next blessing is coming through your hands that somebody say it's coming through my hands some of y'all been asking God for a miracle God says I'm going to create the miracle but then I'm gonna give it to you and then I'm gonna let you decide who you're gonna bless somebody say God make me a distribution center you can trust millions of dollars in my hands trust a business in my hands you can trust a company in my hands you can trust a business in my hands you can trust influence in my hands what you don't understand is that God is going to use you to do the blessing God didn't feed those people the disciples did God multiplied it but they had to distribute it you better get ready to become a distribution center you better get ready to become a warehouse and a storehouse you better get ready for God to fill your closets and your barns and your barrels you better get ready for your bank accounts to be for you better get ready for your house to be for why because God is going to give you so much blessing not so you can keep it but so you can imagine being so rich that is too much for you to keep imagine having so much fish that you got 12 baskets of leftovers imagine being so blessed that you don't need all of your connections that you can give them to somebody else imagine being so blessed that you don't need all of your houses imagine being so blessed that you can't drive all of your cars y'all not listening to me God says I'm a multiply but then imma give it to you so you can distribute it somebody say god bless these is that I might be a distribution do I have anybody here with the right heart to distribute matter of fact give your neighbor high five and shout neighbor you are sitting next to somebody that God is about to multiply you are sitting next to somebody who God is about to bless you are sitting next to somebody who's in the year of elevation you're sitting next to somebody who's about to go to the next level I want all the next level people to shout [Music] [Applause] [Music] somebody shall start with what you have watch this he blessed it he broke it and then he breeded it he blessed it he broke it he breeded it what do I mean whenever you breathe something it produces offspring this is the only time in the world where dad fish had babies because God will bless you will you give birth in a dead place I wish I had somebody in here you are looking from life from your living places God says I'm about to give CPR to your dad place and you're gonna see growth and something you thought was done give your labor a high five and say there things are about to live bad things dead fish don't spawn but when God blesses it then when God touches it he'll take a damn thing and make it produce you better get ready for sex to come with no job get ready for more money to multiply some of y'all go look at your bank account say I don't know where this came from but thanks be to God I don't know where this came from but God must have touched it he must have blessed it he must have broke it and he breeded it your money is about to have money except I wish somebody just touch the pockets any prick that a pregnant my dollars are going 5-5 my files are gonna have tears my tears are gonna give birth to 20s my twenties are gonna have hundreds y'all don't y'all ain't talking I'm about to go home y'all getting on my nerve I'm talking about how God will take a damn thing you think God can't bless you with that job you got out on make enough God will multiply gotta take that check you think ain't enough and do something with it I don't know who I'm talking to matter of fact just sitting up say God do some way to do some with it do some with my money do some of my child do some of my merits do some of my mind work all things together for my good he blessed it he broke it and he breeded it and now we see dead fish having fish the Bible says every time they go into the bucket most stuff keep coming out every time they go in more fish can you imagine everybody eating the fish but the bucket don't go down you eat some bass another comes eat some tilapia I don't know what kind of fish it was but I do know it wasn't the same kind of fish because the Bible says fishes so whatever kind of fish you eat that's what count he'll give you you honey talk to me that such a neighbor whatever kind you want God never leaves anything empty everything God touches he feels he touches empty eyes and gives him sight he touches empty miles and gives his speech he touches empty nuts and they got a hundred and fifty six everything God touches he always feels God never left anything empty except for a tune y'all missing it Oh y'all ain't ready for church on a Thursday the only thing that he ever left empty was a grave everything else he filled everything else he filled everything else he feel he left the tomb empty but everything else he feel snap somebody say use what you got you tall I got is to fish and fire lows that's until he touches it all I make is $10 hour that's until he blesses it all I got is a two-bedroom house apartment that's until he breaks it and blesses it and then breeds it multiplication in this season multiply everybody say multiply multiply multiply multiply multiply multiply multiply you not even don't see it it just gonna start happening stuff just gonna start popping off you're gonna walk in the blessings where they came from the Lord blessed it broke at any distributed and what people ain't ready for is they're used to you having to come to get the blessing they are not yet used to having to come to you God's about the reverse traffic he's about to reverse traffic you used to have to go get the blessing and now he's gonna send people to you to get the blessing he says after I bless you it's gonna be all case can y'all see them bones everywhere can't see the little boy going home till his mama mama you ain't gonna believe what happened mama I had to fish and five loaves and this dude with this bronze he'll sheeps had his bronze feeding he he I don't know it a said his name was Jesus and he took my little fishy mama he took my breast you know kids can't talk you know that right it took my breath and my fishes my man he just multiplied it can you imagine how much fish and bread he took home he left the house with a lunch sack he went home mama mama look cuz God always send you home with more than you left with I want somebody in this place to know that God will multiply anything that you give to him it were home with baskets my my left home I can't I went out there Carla to fishing five barley loaves but look at what I came back with twelve baskets of leftovers he's the god of the Jew and the Gentile twelve tribes of Israel now he's got a basket for every tribe signifying that there's overflow for every tribe and that there's nobody who will go to him and leave from him hungry he will solve my God shall supply all my needs according to his riches but here it is you got to use what you got but lastly you got to be a steward over your results don't ever be so blessed that you don't collect the leftovers I know people I see people right now to give bless it ain't nothing but a dollar I know you don't know what you're talking about it ain't number five cents don't worry about it you see a quart on the ground you walk over you got to be crazy I don't see nothing and walk over it so you didn't got so rich that you just throw food away you didn't just got some rissalah oh it ain't nothing but five dollars all right you keep it up that's not being a good steward over the baskets because if you get enough fives if you collect enough pennies come on talk to me if you collect enough dollars a steward is somebody who takes what you have and brings it back to you at least in the condition that they took it now that's the Stuart what's a good steward now imagine I gave you the keys to my car brother brother Joe now if he took my car and and drove it his responsibility is at least to bring it back to me in the same condition that I gave it to him but a good steward will take it and go get the tank filled just in case you listening and get it washed the person who brings the car back just like you gave it to him they can get it the person who brings it back better you start asking them do you need what am I saying God is watching what you do with the leftovers he is paying attention to what you do with show extra money what do you do when you pay all your bills and you got an extra 50 what are you doing with the scraps because that determines whether he uses you as a distribution center if you think that just because you got extra money that means you got to go get lit you are not a good steward oh I'm blowing some of y'all mine right now I got a few extra dollars I'm gonna go shop it no I got a few extra dollars imma save I says oh you saved your scraps here's some more somebody said I got it if I just got thank you I'm done let's go home let's go stand up she got it I'm ready I'm done for real I was only wanting somebody get her she said I get it churches over let's go home I'm serious stand up we're done I'm absolutely serious she said who said that she said I get it young lady you just made shirts over we're done if there's anybody in this place today it has never accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior this will be a good time for you to do it I only came here today so you would get it if somebody get it I'm done I didn't come here for you to see me I didn't come here to preach a long time I didn't come here to belabor the point if you got it I have done my job he blesses it he breaks it and he breached it because your blessings are gonna start having offspring when your blessings have babies so you're gonna make money in your sleep people suffer well why are you talking about money well that's the first thing the disciples said they said we don't have enough money to feed these people Jesus sent him away see some of y'all would help but you don't have the money to do it so so you send them away if you had the house that was big enough you let people live in it if you had the money to be a blessing you be a blessing but but when you look at what you have it's not enough so you send them away God says I'm about to give you a new season I'm gonna use you as a distribution center I'm not gonna increase the size of your house so you can brag I'm going to increase it because you got a heart to let people live with you I'm gonna I'm gonna give you multiple cards not so you can floss and be a boss but because I know that you use those cars to get people to job interviews and to to bless them with opportunities and I'm not going to bless you with money so you can be rich I'm gonna bless you with money so you can be a blessing on these things giving for those of y'all who leaving I know some of us are gonna go and we're gonna sit around our tables and we're going to laugh and we're gonna have fun and some of you are gonna go to your homes and sit in memories about how painful this time of year is how hard it was that you lost a loved one around this time last year in the year before you know when you really love somebody a decade came put the fire out whatever it is whatever this season means to you he's always doing three things he's always blessing you he's always breaking you if the breaking is for breeding two things of the Lord word of the law today use what you got if all you got is two fish and five nose that's what you use stop complaining about what you don't have and use what you have stop talking about who you are not and stop thinking God for who you are stop talking about where you are not yet and thank God that you are not where you should be the umbilicus Stuart over the leftovers some of us like the lady with the dog and licking the crumbs off the table but you know Joe if you get enough crumbs you can make a loaf the problem is is when we see crumbs we sweep them off the table because they are so insignificant but if you gather enough crumbs if you give if you stop scattering the crumbs and connecting the crumbs you'd have what the person with the loaf has if you can understand that just because it doesn't look the same doesn't mean it isn't the same a person with five pounds of bread and a person with five pounds of crumbs has the same blessing one just is in disguise I speak and I pray over your life today that you would start to appreciate your crops that you would know that is going in better than it started because when this thing started the mill was only for the Jews but God opened the reservation and let Gentiles to the table and I say to every one of you are been rejected and left out God says it's about to be greater later for you somebody shot greater later god I speak blessings over our hearts our minds our ministries our situations our circumstances our lives
