Absolutely. Amen. 01:29 Thank you, Lemuel, 01:31 we know your heart comes through, doesn't it? 01:33 It does, absolutely. 01:34 Yep, your love for people and you're also realizing 01:38 where God has brought you from. 01:39 Amen. 01:41 You know, and where you're at today 01:42 is just a testimony to 01:43 what God can do in anybody's life, right? 01:45 Amen. 01:46 Well, it's a blessing to partner 01:47 with you folks as Christians, 01:49 people that ain't been to prison, 01:50 people that ain't been locked up, 01:52 but you can share the salvation story 01:53 and that's of Jesus Christ. 01:55 Thank you for bringing your team 01:56 to the women's prison, upcoming here soon. 01:58 So appreciate your active part in prison ministries. 02:00 I'm excited. 02:02 We always love it anytime we can go to prison, 02:04 I'm hoping and looking forward to going again with Lemuel 02:07 and ministering there to the women 02:10 who are in prison. 02:11 One of my favorite scriptures is John 6:37. 02:14 Oh, wow. 02:15 Jesus says, "Whoever comes to Me, 02:17 I will never cast aside, I will never cast out." 02:21 So no matter where you are today, 02:23 you might feel like you're lost and alone, 02:25 whether you're in prison or out of prison. 02:27 We all are in some sort of bondage to sin. 02:30 And God says, "I want to set you free. 02:33 I came to set you free." 02:34 So accept His deliverance today. 02:37 Lemuel, thank you so much. 02:38 Thank you for coming 02:40 and sharing your heart with our 3ABN family. 02:43 And we are excited to see how God is gonna provide 02:46 the funding for this new warehouse 02:48 and what He's doing in Christmas Behind Bars. 02:50 Amen. 02:51 And we thank you for being part 02:52 of the 3ABN family. 02:54 Know that we love you and we pray for you. |
