 hey good morning once again welcome to a new week everyone can hear me okay let's begin this time with the word of prayer so I request any one of us to please lead us in prayer mangy can you please lead us in prayer holy father thank you for new week you've given us thank you for this opportunity to learn again and as we learn about our marketplace minister we prefer that you open our hearts to receive and to let your Holy Spirit expand on what we are learning Lord so that we we are effective both in in our work with you and also in our interaction of people we pray all this in the mighty name of Christ amen amen thank you mangy all right before we get into today's class let's just do a quick review of what we did last week last week we completed chapter 2 looked at how even as we are in the workplace we can expect unusual favors so we saw the example of Daniel and Joseph and we also learned that you know we need to build in a certain place which means no don't keep moving around but settle down right take a review revise and refine the work that we are doing and then we also looked at a very important point which is avoid the donkey and the horse syndrome the donkey is too slow to move ahead the horse is always going ahead without any guidance so avoid that syndrome wait on the Lord wait for his direction wait for his leading and remember that the steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord so the Lord will order our steps and then we also looked at how you know with these principles God is calling us to step into the mountain which we which is ahead of us which means whatever God is you know has for us whether it is ministry whether it is government religion media us in entertainment whatever field that God has called us for we are to grow in the gifts and the grace that God has blessed us with alright so let's move into chapter 3 chapter 3 is deals with our personal lives right it's the chapter 3 is right workplace attitudes now attitude is a way of looking at things like our choices our actions our behaviors our habits that's our attitude right our attitude will also determine our character and it goes both ways right so here's the thing to remember not all work environments are the same right so for example you may be working in one company and people may be very good to you you know there's a friendly atmosphere everyone are you know helping each other out and that's wonderful but all of a sudden for example you get a promotion and you move to a new company now the lifestyle or the the essence of that company the people may be very rude they don't really help each other everyone are it's like a rat race everyone want to be the best in what they are doing and you know there's politics there's jealousy all of a sudden you see a change but our attitude is one thing that should not change right we need to develop this and maintain this attitude of of right attitude good attitude godly attitude regardless of our situations around right we can maintain a good attitude when things when people are good office workplaces has a good atmosphere but what about when the atmosphere is not so good in the workplace attitude is a choice it's how we decide to look at things right so if we look at things and say okay this is a very bad company I don't want to work here obviously when you know when we go to work we'll feel oh man I don't want to work here the people are not good right or you know these are the things that happen to me and so we're having the right workplace attitude will always contribute not only to your personal life but also to the organization right now just because some of us may be in ministry doesn't mean this does not apply to us it very much applies to us right now we see that a lot of churches ministries are gaining structure they have offices they have leadership they have you know work hours in place and they have a Monday to Friday work no office and so all of this what we are talking about does not only apply for the marketplace but it also applies for the us in ministry right you may be somebody who has started your own ministry and you know you don't really work for somebody but these attitudes will help us to build you know the the essence of what your ministry is about right so we're going to look at a couple of points on how attitude will help us in our ministry or in the workplace right so I'm on page 30 in the book chapter 3 right play workplace attitude on the point your attitude almost always determines your altitude that's wonderful your attitude determines your altitude meaning how high you go if you've got an attitude of you know I just don't mind being in the same place then we will remain there let's look at Daniel chapter 6 and verse 3 yes could one of us please read Daniel chapter 6 and verse 3 I could do Daniel 6 3 then this Daniel distinguished himself above the governor's and the satraps because an excellent spirit was in him and the king thought to setting him over the whole realm wonderful thank you Samuel so what do we see here let me give you a little bit of a background the Babylonians come they take captive Daniel and few of his friends and Daniel is a young man he's there in Babylon and what happened what does it say here Daniel had an excellent spirit in him and now Daniel was in the government for three empires the Babylonians then the Meads come in and the Persians the dryers right so for three government three world empires he was governing Babylon now why was that so because he has an excellent spirit in him and not only that the Persian king the rise said I'm gonna make you Daniel I heard about you from the Babylonians I've heard about your work and how the work that you did as as governor of this you know Babylon and all that you did to this place I heard about it so you will be the leader over everything over all the provinces now while his enemies were trying to bring him down the end his you know his he had a lot of enemies they tried all they can to bring him down but the Bible says this wonderful thing they could not find anything wrong in Daniel's work he was perfect there was an excellent spirit in him in the same job or in the same office we can say the people were against Daniel but the leader the king said hey Daniel I'm gonna make you ruler of everything on one side they wanted to pull him down on the other side the king is saying I'm gonna make you a leader so our grace our gifts and skills that we bring to the workplace and our attitudes set us apart right if our attitude is right if our attitude is that of a positive attitude we get recognition from leaders we get recognition from people we get recognition God will begin to open doors for us and and it's a wonderful thing to have a positive attitude right now even in ministry you know I've met a lot of young people you know they tell me you know I joined Bible college or I joined this course but I stopped studying in between said what happened I said no I I felt that it was too much to study and you know as they talk we get to know the attitude that they have towards you know the studies they've taken up sometimes we have students here who have taken up MBBS they were studying to be a doctor there are different kinds of students here that we meet some students say oh it is so difficult and you know of course it is difficult but we can make out the attitude in which they talk and then other students who said I'm enjoying pastor I like what I'm doing even though it's difficult this is what I wanted to do and it's so wonderful to see that positive attitude and what happens our attitude will determine our altitude Daniel was you know tried was was being set up by his colleagues okay we catch this guy how do we catch him through only through God and so they tried to set him up even that didn't work when he knew that he's going to be thrown into the lion's den he knew it if he prays to another God he'll be thrown into the lion's den that did not change his attitude towards the situation we don't read about Daniel going back and you know crying and fasting and praying no the Bible says he opened the windows you look towards Jerusalem and as usual he prayed to God so his attitude to the whole thing didn't didn't change at all so even when we are faced we may be thrown into the lion's den so to speak people attacking us from all the sides let not our attitude change let's remain let's you know keep that positive attitude knowing that God is on our side as long as we have done the right thing as long as we have obeyed God obeyed our leaders we've done the right thing God is with us right to do all for the glory of God first Corinthians 10 31 let's read first Corinthians chapter 10 and verse 31 yes any one of us I agree let's go ahead Christopher our one Corinthians 10 31 therefore whether you eat or drink or whatever you do do all to the glory of God amen thank you Christopher so Paul is writing here to the Corinthians and he's saying whatever you do whether you eat drink work sleep play whatever it is do it for the glory of God so basically what Paul is saying is let your motivation to do things be right right we are motivated our motivation is what drives us right we are motivated like each one of us here you are motivated to join the Bible College right that's a motivation it's something that drives you towards it right and then our motivation inspires us it stimulates us it helps us to keep going right now there are different reasons for people to be motivated right now if you look at companies and especially now the IT companies that are just you know growing so big different companies have different incentives you would say you know some companies may say I'll give you and your family medical benefits any problem everything will be cashless you can go you can have all the medical help that you need some companies provide you know financial aid some companies bonuses some provide you know money for you know home expenses also some companies who provide for educational loans and so all kinds of companies have different incentives that they provide which is wonderful but our motivation to work our motivation to do any kind of work whether it's in the marketplace or ministry should be to give glory to God right so even as maybe some of us are already in the ministry you're planning to join the ministry what is your motivation right is the motivation you know just so that you know we can stand in front of the church and preach for our people and gain recognition now that would be the wrong motivation or is the motivation God I want to bring glory to your name I want you to impact many lives through me use me as a channel of your blessing now that would be the right motivation like the more we are motivated the more we will be able to do something for God but I remember this you know just 2021 in December we were talking to the you know every Christmas season we have carols and the malls and this year you know with all the persecution and things that are happening the anti-conversion bill so many of them said you know it came up to me and they said don't do this you know it's going to be a big trouble it's going to be a big problem people will stop you you may get into trouble and I thought about it and I kept it aside I said yes it's not the right time to do carols and one day I was just sitting and reading the word of God and this whole verse came up to me and it says I'm not giving you the spirit of fear but of power love and sound mind and I thought to myself God I'm doing whatever I won't do I want to give glory to your name so it's not about me whether you know it's a PC or whether this church that church it's about the opportunity that God gives us and the opportunity to take it and give glory to God so I called up the malls and I said you know we'll come and do the carols can you give us dates they were happy they gave us dates and we just did it right we did the carols and all the malls and praise God for protection nothing really happened but here's what happened after that I kept telling the team as we were moving to different carols and different malls it was on different dates but I kept telling the team this as you are doing this remember you're giving glory to God it's not about our gifts and talents give glory to God thank God for the opportunity and so we did all the carols and then in one of the malls the organizers came up to us and said it was very nice the carols was very good and so our senior managers are thinking about 2022 as well is it okay if you can go to Hyderabad go to Mumbai and you know there was another city he mentioned Hyderabad and Mumbai and he was open to you know doing the carols in all these places for us so I thought to myself to this malls what if we hadn't you know gone there and done this whole carols but God was faithful right so what I'm trying to say is whatever we do when we give glory to God God will open many more doors for us maybe it's in the workplace you're working you know the whole six seven hours in front of the laptop working on assignments or working on targets that has to be achieved it could be strenuous but here's the thing we say God I thank you for this job I thank you that as I'm doing this I'm giving glory to you God will begin to bless the work of our hands right so let's remain to have that attitude thought it's not me it's all about you and what you have done for me third point keep your ambition kingdom focused let's read Matthew chapter 6 and verse 33 Matthew 6 33 let's go ahead anybody Matthew 6 Matthew 6 33 but sick first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things should be added to you amen thank you mangi now this is a verse that all of us have probably quoted in our sermons or even as we speak to people seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness all the other things shall be added on to you so what is Matthew trying to focus you're saying first things first put God first in everything that we do seek first the kingdom of God and all the other things concerning our work concerning our families are apart from work whatever needs to be you know done God will make it come to pass right how do so maybe some of us may ask the question you know I'm working in the IT company Monday to Friday or Monday to even Saturday how can I seek first the kingdom of God and my company I've got all the numbers I've got these targets I've got people around me some are good some are bad and the environment in this place is this way how can I seek first the kingdom of God here's how we do it God is calling us whether in the marketplace or whether in the ministry to seek his righteousness which means seek to do what is right in God's kingdom our focus even it may be something in you know completely out of ministry right you may feel that this is not something God is interested in but no God is interested in it when we focus ourselves and say God I'm putting you first I want to know that what I'm doing in my work is it pleasing in your sight and when we think of that and avoid the distractions that are there around us we will be able to you know give God the glory we will be able to seek the kingdom of God first let me give you this example of I think most of us have heard of this you know singer named Elvis Presley you're growing up he wanted to be a gospel singer he loves the Lord he grew up in a very Christian environment and growing up he would you know always sing hymns he would be a church singing but he always kept telling his brother I want to do something for the church I want to do something so he writes in his biography that you know he always wanted to do something in the ministry he felt that call it called him towards the ministry and he always had that ambition but what happened was at a young age he tasted you know success he's tasted freedom he tasted you know wealth and all the things of this world that pulled him away from being kingdom-minded you know his brother wrote in this article saying that there would be millions of people around the world waiting to see him and waiting to talk to him and meet him but after every concert he will go back to his room and he will sit on the piano and he will play how great thou art with tears streaming down his eyes and I would look at my brother and I would think why is he crying and the whole world wants to be like him and he's got all the wealth he's got all the money he's got everything that he his heart desires but he sits and he plays how great thou art on the piano and he cries why later on his brother realized that that was not he knew that what he was doing was not kingdom focus he knew that it was not something that was giving glory to God somewhere deep in his heart he knew it and so here's the thing even as we focus on our dreams our goals pursuits for what God wants us to do remember that it should be kingdom focused I'm not saying that we are not to make money not to build a house not to buy a car that's all important that's required but the focus is God I want you to be glorified in in my work I want you to glorify it to be glorified in everything that I do so that is the focus right let's go to the next point if if you have any questions any thoughts feel free to unmute and you can and just share your thoughts and questions right next point always remember there is more to life and just making money let's read Proverbs 11 verse 28 Proverbs 11 28 yes anyone Proverbs 11 verse 28 Proverbs 11 28 he who trust in his riches will fall but the righteous will flourish like foliage amen thank you mangy so this is I think one of the most basic things that we must remember as believers money wealth and riches is not everything in life right our pursuit in life is only not about you know earning more money you know buying another house buying another house buying cars that's that's not the pursuit that we must have in life right there are more things than money right sometimes you wait to go up the corporate ladder we want to go up we want to go up and the focus is money now it's not wrong to go not to pursue to go up the corporate ladder but if only money is in our mind remember that God is your master and money is your slave Luke chapter 16 verse 13 Jesus writes Jesus so beautifully no servant can be the slave of two masters such a slave will hate one and love the other or be loyal to one and despise the other you cannot serve both God and money so we must be careful you know there are certain intangibles in life meaningful relationships serving people solving problems fulfilling God's purpose in our life these are things that are intangibles this is worth more than money right so we don't take the extremes of both sides we don't say okay I work only for money and have only money in the mind and then there's this other side who says no I don't need any money right so that again would be wrong so we need to balance ourselves right so we've seen sometimes these over super spiritual people say I don't need money God will provide for my needs now we need money it's a resource that God has blessed us with but our trust and our hope should not only be on money let me give you this wonderful example that I read many years back and still with me there's this tennis player I think I've used this example the tennis player named Andrea Garcia he was a five-time Wimbledon champion as a young boy you know all he wanted to do was play tennis he's about five six years old so he was willing to get up in the early mornings go for trainings and his mind was focused on winning the Wimbledon from six years old so that's all he wanted to do so all these you know there were birthday parties there were family trips he would miss all of that right because he said no no one day you know I want to be the Wimbledon champion and I want to you know achieve these things I want to achieve get a lot of money as well become famous and become rich through this and so he worked really hard and finally at a very young age he won the Wimbledon in his early 20s he won the Wimbledon and he came back home that night from the Wimbledon and he put he put the trophy on his you know maybe his rack and in his biography he writes that when he looked at that trophy and he looked at the money that he had won and made through this whole Wimbledon he said he felt empty it was then when he started feeling suicidal tendencies he said all my life I've been working towards winning this Wimbledon champion and wanting to become rich now that I've won it I see the trophy here I see the money that I have but all of this makes me still feel empty and then he went through depression he went through suicidal tendencies he had to go through counseling medications so much what are we trying to say that money is not everything in life fame is not everything in life when we put the Lord Jesus at the center and then when we receive the blessings of God then we will see you know whatever little or whatever the God has blessed us with it will be sufficient now Proverbs writes many verses where we say that you know it is like the rich people it's like putting money into a purse which has holes in it all of a sudden we realize hey I've been earning the whole month and I've got my pay and where is all the money gone it's gone into a whole into a pocket with holes in it and so life is not only about money if making money becomes a soul motivator another important thing is we may end up in sin we start taking bribes crooked means violating rules you know cheating people for money even hurting people for money and I think one of the most you know one very sad to say this but there are places where people say you give me so much money I will prophesy on you you give me so much money and I will you know heal you and so prophecies are going for sale healings are going on sale and why is that why is all this happening in the ministry because of the love of money so we should avoid it God is your master money is your slave remember that God can create things into being for you right so always always remember that in ministry in the corporate field as well remember that God is your master money is your slave and so you decide how money how to treat money and not the other way around all right next point everyone okay everyone with me my too fast shall we move on to the next point any thoughts any questions okay all right let's go to the next point always walk in the fear of the Lord Proverbs 15 16 let's read one of us please read Proverbs 15 16 Proverbs 15 16 a better is a little with the fear of the Lord then great treasure with the trouble amen thank you Abinas right better is little with the fear of the Lord now we all know this is not talking about fear as in how we get fear for things around us but now to walk in the fear of the Lord is to walk in reverence and honor of our God so it means to be always conscious that what I'm doing is it pleasing in the sight of God is it is it in line with what God wants me to do am I conscious that am I in every aspect am I walking in reverence am I walking in the fear of the Lord so for example we can ask ourselves this question this does this honor God does this demonstrate reverence to God is it right in the eyes of God and you know and remember this when I was in Bible college you know we used to meet in the cloud and we had first year and second year it was a DTH course and I remember you know sometimes there would be you know people would you know scratch the tables or you know the chairs would be damaged and I would feel really bad I'll tell the students you know I was a junior but I would tell the students why are we doing this we need to respect what what we have you know me a few of my friends say we should not do this we should is it honoring God is it to is it something that you know God is pleased with and and here's the thing it's only chairs and tables right it has nothing to do with ministry or but here's the thing when we have the fear of the Lord even the smallest things that we do will you know will question us is it something that is right in the sight of God right I also remember you know there was this young man in my class and he was he was from a rural place of India and so he had joined our Bible college and young man right early 20s but he found English very difficult very difficult right so he would he would sit next to me in class and he wouldn't understand anything so it's a polite I don't understand anything I said I used to tell him don't worry as you pick up as the weeks go by you'll pick up you'll do well but he had never spoken English he's never heard English he was part from the rural villages of India but it was too difficult you know the first semester he did quite badly in all his subjects and they said okay you know this is not how we can do it you know you have to improve your grades and all of it and he tried his best right but one thing he's he you know we had certain rules you gotta wake up at 5 a.m. for prayer there was the afternoon prayer there was a night prayer the 21 days of fasting prayer and the five days of prayer for all these places he would wake up you know he would be on time he would wake up exactly before 4 4 5 o'clock 5 a.m. 4 45 all the students will be asleep and he would wake up and he would you know get freshened up 5 o'clock exactly he will start being in a pray right nobody's there to tell you know to tell you okay you have to get up and pray it's your own personal thing and then in the fasting prayers he's there fasting and praying and one thing that I saw was and I told him see you're finding the studies hard but I what I see in you is you have the fear of the Lord in you and the Bible teaches that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom right and and so I told him I used to tell him you know you can do this don't worry you know he graduated from our Bible college learning two instruments and with grade a in all his subjects he graduated how because he had the fear of the Lord in him initially it was you know there were it was too difficult for him but the fear of the Lord is in us it gives us the wisdom to do well God really blessed him now he's in full-time ministry he's pastoring a church right so it's wonderful when you know it's not only about being having fears Lord when exams are round no it's even when every aspect of our life is regarding family am I doing the right thing for my family am I doing the right thing for my children fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom if we want to grow in wisdom if we want to grow in in the way we minister the way we are at work and we are praying God grant me wisdom remember the fear of the Lord will help us gain that wisdom right Proverbs 22 4 says by humility and the fear of the Lord are riches and honor and life and we have fear of the Lord riches and honor and life is ours so let's remember that even as we are preparing ourselves for the ministry or even in the workplace it's remember to have the fear of the Lord in us walk and reverence somebody tells you you know can you make this file can you just add something just do this and send it to send it to me what is our response you can say no does this honor God that's not so then say no let's do it the right way right or there will be people who are cheating and you know for promotion or whatever but our way is to do things in the right way that is honoring and pleasing to God right let's go to the next point the fruit of the Spirit are winning attitudes and we are to walk in the fruit of the Spirit right so let's read Galatians chapter 5 22 and 23 Galatians 5 22 and 23 yes go ahead anyone go ahead Anita sister yeah thank you but the Spirit produces love joy peace patience kindness goodness faithfulness humility and self-control there is no law against such things as this amen thank you Anita but the Spirit produces I'm sure we all know the fruit of the Spirit love joy peace patience kindness goodness faithfulness some versions say gentleness the good news version says humility and self-control right now the presence and work of the Holy Spirit will work in us as as we work in our office in our whatever work that God has given us we can ask the fruit of the Holy Spirit to manifest because they are winning attitudes they are attitudes that will help us in our workplace right now imagine you know that everyone are angry with each other imagine this atmosphere in an office you know everyone are angry with each other there's no peace right but you walk into your office every day and you're not angry but you're at peace you're laughing you're joyful you have you know you're walking in humility and then people ask you hey you know all the bad things are happening to us and our team why why is it that you are not upset one of the things that we can say is I'm not upset because I'm led by the Holy Spirit the Holy Spirit the fruit of the Holy Spirit in me now the key word here it's not fruits it's fruit right these are different a sense of one fruit the fruit meaning like for example if it's an apple the apple has love joy peace patience kindness generous faithfulness and self-control so it's all in one so we can say Holy Spirit even as I go to work you know the place the work the atmosphere the workplace is bad people are fighting mocking each other jealous of each other and there's no kind of order but Lord I know that you have given me the fruit of the Spirit I will walk in love I will walk in joy I will walk in peace walking in patience and kindness and gentleness right what happens people will notice our character people will notice our attitudes and everything will change even as we consider these nine traits let's look at them one by one what what do they really mean we may be able to say it but how can I apply these nine traits in my life applied in my family and in the workplace or even in the ministry let's look at these nine gifts first one love demonstrating compassion care concern for people I think how can I demonstrate compassion to my boss when he's you know always putting me down or he's not giving me any opportunity and everyone else are getting the best and I'm getting nothing remember the Lord Jesus said love your enemies is it easy now I heard that it's the fruit of the Spirit you need to demonstrate compassion and love to joy positive happy passionate enthusiasm exuberance about life so imagine everyone are walking into office their sleepy groggy irritated of what is going to happen in the day or we have three meetings meetings are going to go on for two hours but the joy of the Lord is our strength you can say God it's going to be a tiring day it's a long day ahead of us for the joy of the Lord will be my strength help me to be positive help me to be passionate about the work that I have then he got peace a sense of calmness composure and serenity I like that word composure you know in the midst of the storm you can be at peace at what God has given you sometimes maybe in even this happens even in ministry where you know we may feel restless about the things that are happening may get tiresome may get very in the workplace we may think oh I've got a hit ten hours or 15 hours sometimes got to work on the weekdays we may feel stressed out it's a natural thing but God the Holy Spirit gives us peace where we can even in those stressful days and stressful moments we can keep our composure and say God I know you are my peace you are the peace that passeth all understanding help me to trust in that peace then we have patience firm endurance commitment willing to stick with things patience is something that we all really need you know in the workplace even in ministry sometimes we're all in a hurry to you know to become to earn money and or to go up the ladder and sometimes it's by hook or by crook or sometimes by hook and by crook but here's the thing God is calling us to be patient all through the scriptures we read that when God chooses people no matter what whether it's in the ministry whether it's in the workplace God always trains people before he uses them most often he does that and we did look at this last semester as well you know he trained Moses in the desert he trained Paul for 17 years he trained you know Joseph for another 17 years David was trained for 17 years they were all given wonderful prophetic words and he had a great future ahead of them but God made them wait patience is important so we are not you know in a place where you say no I want this fast I want this fast by next year I should be there it's good to plan out but if God is asking us to be patient let's be patient kindness gentleness in word and deed when we are kind to others it just reciprocates like I'm sure some of us may I've gone through this you know you're going on the in the traffic and then maybe somewhere we did something wrong right and what happens you know you know oh I did this wrong I shouldn't have taken this turn and the other person opposite gets upset what happens if you give them a smile 10 out of 10 times they're not going to shout they'll just smile back what happens when you know you're going on the traffic and somebody else makes a mistake and you're on the receiving end and what happens when they smile very unlikely we'll say what are you laughing at we will not say that right that smile will change everything of that situation say okay it's all right go ahead I'm sure it's happened to us kindness is word and deed shown to the other person goodness is demonstrating generosity faithfulness being sincere being dependable having and loyal to your commitments very important right if you make certain commitments to people be loyal to try to keep your commitments like humility meekness no matter how big we grow no matter how high we go up that ladder no matter how much we know around us walk in humility God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble finally self-control self-governing ability able to you know control our thoughts our words our actions many a times you know I've seen some of my you know when I was working in the adi companies I've seen some of my team members they would say you know how can he do this no they don't have self-control then they go and they shouted the team leader the team leader receives it but later on he gets a warning letter they say oh then it happens again they get a termination letter and that's what happened to one of my friends now a person in my team he got upset he shouted he got a warning letter then he a couple of months later he did the same thing and then they just called him aside during one break time called him took him to the conference room they said today's your last day please sign your termination letter and he was in shock he he I remember he was telling me I've got a loan and the only one working oh I'm so sorry but they did not listen I thought to myself it's so important to have self-control learn how to direct our energies wisely yes I'm not saying we don't get upset we get upset but when you know problem says some wonderful principles that we can use and we're upset just keep quiet just keep quiet let let the situation you know let your mind become cool and then you can make the right decisions as the Bible say in your anger do not sin right so that we the worst time to make decisions is when you're angry so imagine that each one of us can walk in these in this fruit of the spirit all nine aspects love joy peace patience kindness goodness faithfulness gentleness and self-control and even as we do that these are winning attitudes the Holy Spirit will empower us for greater things in the workplace in the ministry so let's stop here we'll pick up from the next point tomorrow and we will look to please finishing most of this chapter tomorrow itself all right any questions any thoughts shall be closed in prayer okay let's close in prayer
