In fact, God told the prophet Samuel, he said, you're going to anoint the next king of Israel.

And I want you to know this one thing about this anointing.

You're going to anoint the man that I call, but I don't want you to begin to look for what you think would be the king.

I don't want you to look for the man that's the right height, the man that's

that's in a certain position, the man that has the talents that you think would make a good king.

He said, because I don't look at things that way.

That's the way you look at things.

He said, you look from the outside.

You respond to life from the outside.

But see, I am a God of the inside.

Man looks on the outside, but God looks on the heart.

See, you're qualified today because God chose you to be qualified.

He looked at your heart and he said, that's my child.

You know what I love about that is that God is the God of second chances.

God is always inside of us working from the inside out.

He's working on our thoughts.

He's working on our actions.

He's working all the time.

God never sleeps.

He never slumbers.
