And also, I would like to honor you all. Yeah, clap for yourself. I'd like to honor you all. We call this a divine miracle. Nine weeks, the lead pastor is gone and y'all still continue to show up. And y'all just confirming a work of what the Holy Spirit is doing in us as a local body. I see it as a miracle. I've been in mega churches when the lead pastor would not come from behind that curtain and people would just get up and leave. So y'all are confirming that we are not idolizing a man. We're idolizing the Lord Jesus Christ and his holy scriptures. Prayer, presence, and proclamation. We are idolizing that. And to you all, I say thank you. I say thank you, man. I'm serious. The title of this message today is While We Wait.
Milton James 3:14
While We Wait. Let me pray for y'all as y'all pray for me. Please pray for me, Heavenly Father. We thank you for your presence. We thank you for being in this holy gathering, in the tabernacle, in the temple as you dwell. Move up and down every row, every seat, every digital disciple, every person that is far from you, till their hearts right now, even in the moment, Lord. May they Be good ground for the seed to land so that it will produce fruit that remains. We love you, Holy Father. We thank you for all that you have done. We thank you for meeting us in this place. We don't take it for granted. Please, oh God, never take your hand off of us. We can do nothing without you. We give you all the praise, all the honor, all the glory.
Milton James 4:20
We surrender all unto you. Blessed to your holy name. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen. Beloved family, when I was preparing this message, I was thinking about, I don't know how y'all grew up, but when I grew up, like on a Saturday, like if If I heard like Al Green playing, like real loud, or like the OJs playing, like real loud. I know some of y'all don't know what that is, but if I heard like Teddy Pendergrass playing real loud, I know some of y'all might know. What was the response to that if you heard that on a Saturday morning? Time to clean up. So a lot of times, you know, we would hear that. We would get up. Your mom would give you the orders. You do this. You do that. I'm doing this. I'm doing that. So on and so be it.
Milton James 5:26
But then there were also times when your parents would say, if you did X, Y, and Z and been good for the week, they were going to take you to the movies or they were going to take you roller skating or they were going to do something for you. If you did, what she normally would do on those Saturday mornings. But when you heard the promise, it was like all that week, all you could think about was the next weekend to whatever she had for you, but you would keep your heart tethered to that to do everything in excellence. Like you wouldn't fight with your brothers and sisters. Like you would wash all the dishes. She ain't have to ask you to do anything. Because your heart was attached to a promise. Like, I would wash my mama clothes.
Milton James 6:19
She would get home from work.
