You may take your seat in the presence of the almighty God. My name is Lonnell Dawson Williams. I'm the executive pastor here at 2819 Church. And just so grateful to be one of the communicators here. We've got a shout out to Elder Eric, Elder Milton for their continual laboring in the word. I just want to celebrate them. And while we're at it, let us just honor the under shepherd of this house, Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell. We're just so grateful, Ms. Lena, and just the love and commitment and value that they have towards this house. Listen, I'm just excited to be able to speak upon this morning. I believe God has a word for us, and I'm just in anticipation, anticipation. But before I begin, I just want to shout out to all of our digital disciples online.

I'm rocking here for y'all. I love it. We are all disciples of Christ, but for those of you who are online, I sneak into the chat every once in a while, and I talk to y'all. Y'all are doing it. And you guys are celebrating and connecting with us and being a part of this community. You may not be in the room, but you're in the room. And so for that, we are grateful for you, for all of the individuals who are incarcerated. We are here with you and for you through our Pando app. Thank you for the thousands who have been saved through the app and your continual giving, which allows us to support this endeavor and getting these iPads and these apps into prisons all over the United States. We're going into prisons every single Sunday, and people are looking at and watching the proclamation and being saved.
Lonnell Williams 1:37
And so for that, we honor you on this morning. Whom the Son has set free is free indeed. Amen. Amen. Well, let's begin. I believe we've got a word. We are going to continue in this sermon series for the summer, the fruit that remains, the fruit that remains. And, you know, we've spoken throughout a series of topics around honor and We've talked about excellence. We're talking about excellence today. We've spoken about serving. We've spoken about evangelism, carrying culture, protecting culture, faithfulness. And I'm excited to speak about practical excellence upon this morning. We're going to take for our text, Daniel. The chapter is the sixth chapter. We're going to actually walk through the entire pericope of the sixth chapter.
Lonnell Williams 2:23
But for the purposes of this morning, I am going to read for you verses three through five, verses three through five. But keep your Bible handy because we will go into it quite a bit. Verses three, it says, then this Daniel became distinguished above all the other high officials and set traps because an excellent spirit was in him. And the king planned to set him over the whole kingdom. And then the high officials in the satrap sought to find a ground for complaint against Daniel with regards to the kingdom. But they could find no ground for complaint or any fault because he was faithful and no error or fault was found in him. Verse number five. Then these men said, we shall not find any ground for complaint against this Daniel unless we find it
Lonnell Williams 3:16
in connection with the law of his God. Let's go back up to verse number three, the A clause, for the purposes of our text. Then this Daniel became distinguished above all of the other high officials, set traps, because an excellent spirit was in him. If I could use for a title on this text, I would call it, keep that same energy. Keep that same energy. I don't know about you, for those online and those in the room, I have come to learn that the weather in Atlanta is schizophrenic. I'm just being real. One day it can be raining, and the next moment it can be sunny, the next moment it can be healing, and then all of a sudden it's all three at the same time. It is a very confusing place. And I'm from California where it's 75 all year round.
Lonnell Williams 4:07
But this is the only place where it does not make any sense. OK. And in fact, yesterday I was going to the store. I went to Publix. I was like, oh, this is cool. And then it started raining. Confusing as ever. But I remember one time I was headed.
