00:00:00.000 All right, listen, guys, I get it.
00:00:02.080 Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry
00:00:04.780 because you're spending your cash and your lives
00:00:07.080 on raising young children
00:00:08.680 in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
00:00:10.720 Praise God for you and that endeavor.
00:00:13.840 However, algorithms are a thing.
00:00:16.360 Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing.
00:00:18.580 And one major way that you can help to expand
00:00:21.760 the reach and effectiveness of this ministry
00:00:24.160 that doesn't cost you a dime
00:00:25.880 is by spending just a few moments
00:00:28.220 leaving us a five-star review. Also, perhaps even more effective than that, you can share
00:00:34.780 our podcast with a friend. We hope you'll take the time to do so. Thank you so much. God bless.
00:00:42.360 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the
00:00:47.040 mouth of God. You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:49.960 psalm 127 says that children are a heritage from the lord they're a blessing from the lord
00:00:58.660 that they're not just the product of happenstance or random causation that god actually directly
00:01:05.760 gives children specific children to specific parents and he gives them as blessings as a
00:01:14.080 heritage. So the question then is what is the Christian response to receiving a blessing from
00:01:21.740 the Lord? If children are an intentional direct heritage from God, they are a blessing, blessing
00:01:29.780 given by God to you. What is the Christian response to receiving blessing from God? The world says
00:01:38.780 that the response should be guilt, and that is precisely the answer that Satan himself gives.
00:01:46.880 And it should come as no shock to us that the world merely echoes the answer of their father.
00:01:53.720 John chapter 8 says that everyone has a spiritual father. Again, patriarchy is inescapable.
00:02:01.020 those who do not have God as their father are not fatherless but rather they have Satan as their
00:02:08.540 father Jesus says this you are not children of Abraham and you do not have God as your father
00:02:15.240 if you did you would do as Abraham does you would delight to see my day but as it stands you are 0.66
00:02:22.160 children of the devil he was a murderer from the beginning and here you are bearing a striking 0.83
00:02:28.880 resemblance to him children always look like their daddy and likewise the world looks like 1.00
00:02:36.720 the devil because the devil is their father he is a liar and the father of lies when he lies he 1.00
00:02:43.880 speaks his native tongue so too children of the devil the world lies he is also a murderer from 0.99
00:02:51.000 the beginning and so too the world is murderous and so when we ask the question how should we
00:02:57.700 respond to receiving blessing from the Lord, and yes, children are a prime example of that blessing,
00:03:05.000 the world would have us respond with guilt. Guilt, because their father, the devil, would have us
00:03:13.100 respond with guilt. But the biblical response for the Christian, when it comes to receiving a
00:03:20.480 heritage and blessing from the Lord is not guilt, but rather gratitude. And gratitude,
00:03:28.060 brothers and sisters, is a far more potent incentive, fuel, motivation for giving back to
00:03:37.580 others than guilt. Guilt will not produce generosity. It will produce the minimum bottom
00:03:46.160 line. It will produce virtue signaling, the optic and appearance of generosity, but it will not
00:03:54.480 ever produce real Holy Spirit wrought heartfelt generosity toward God by being generous to others.
00:04:05.100 But gratitude will. Gratitude will. And so on Mother's Day, for those of you who are women
00:04:12.720 who have children my point and everything before we began the service today was to to say this
00:04:19.540 it does not benefit others it does not benefit the minority who do not have children for you
00:04:27.360 to feel guilty over the children that you do have the christian response is to say the lord
00:04:33.520 has given me a heritage children are not an accident children are not random this was god
00:04:40.960 in his sovereignty deliberately giving to me a blessing and my response shall be gratitude not
00:04:48.920 guilt and trust that that proper christian response of gratitude will actually cause you
00:04:55.580 to be a far more sympathetic loving compassionate and generous person than guilt ever will that's
00:05:05.040 the point can i be frank with you for just a second right here at the end look some of you
00:05:09.940 guys, you're financially supporting this ministry. And from the bottom of my heart, I say thank you.
00:05:15.660 I cannot thank you enough. However, some of you, you just, you can't afford it. In fact, some of
00:05:23.000 you, you shouldn't afford it. Let's be honest. I mean, we're living in Joe Biden's ridiculous
00:05:28.940 economy. Our nation and our totalitarian political elites lost their minds over the last three years 0.98
00:05:37.980 due to COVID. We have written checks that we simply cannot cash. It doesn't matter if people
00:05:44.900 change the definition of a recession. We are living in a recession right now regardless.
00:05:51.820 Some of you are struggling to afford a carton of eggs at the grocery store. You cannot support
00:05:58.120 financially this ministry at this time, nor should you, but you could still help us tremendously.
00:06:04.780 I am asking you, please, if you're willing to do so, take one minute of your time.
00:06:11.360 Leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform, iTunes, Spotify, whatever that might be.
00:06:18.760 This is the way the system works.
00:06:20.840 We want to be innocent as doves, but shrewd as vipers.
00:06:25.000 We need to be strategic.
00:06:26.860 You leave us a five-star review, and our podcast shows up for more people.
00:06:31.400 and the Word of God and courageous theology applied in practical ways to every realm of life
00:06:39.020 gets out there. Help us get it out there. Thanks for tuning in.
