How To Deal With The Valleys Of Life

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

THE WORD OF GOD FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD

VERY BRIEFLY WITH IF I COULD GET A BAPTIST AMEN A METHODIST NOD AND A SANTIFIED CHURCH HALLEJUAH

I WANT TO REASON WITH YOU ON THE THOUGHT

HOW TO DEAL WITH THE VALLEYS OF LIFE

MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS

THE 23RD NUMBERS OF PSALMS IS A RARE AND PRICELESS JEWEL WITHIN THE TREASURY OF GOD`S ENTERNAL WORD

TO SOME IT`S KNOWN AS A HANKERCHEIF

BECAUSE IT HAS AWAY OF DRYING TEARS FROM TEAR STAIN EYES

TO OTHERS IT`S KNOWN AS AN IN HOUSE SURGEN

BECAUSE IT HAS AWAY OF MENDING A BROKEN HEART

BUT IT IS ALSO KNOWN AS A HEAD LIFTER

BECAUSE IT HAS AWAY OF MAKING YOU LIFT YOUR EYES UNTO THE HILLS FROM WHENCE COMETH YOUR HELP

AND YOU DO KNOW YOUR HELP COMES FROM THE LORD

DAVID –DAVID WRITES THIS PSALM IN HIS YONDER YEARS

FOR HE REALIZE THAT HE HAS MORE DAYS BEHIND HIM THAN BEFORE HIM

AND HE TAKE A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE AND GIVES GOD SOME PRAISE

BECAUSE IN VERSE 1-3 DAVID TALKS ABOUT THE LORD

BUT WHEN YOU GET THE 4TH VERSE HE TALKS TO THE LORD

AND AS RESULT OF THE TALK THAT DAVID HAS WITH THE LORD

HE GIVES US SOME BIBICAL INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO DEAL WITH THE VALLEYS OF LIFE

IN OTHER WORDS

DAVID LETS US KNOW

THAT THE LORD CAN BE OUR SHEPHERD

WE CAN EVEN BE GRAZING IN THE GREEN PASTURES

AND POSITION BY THE STILL WATERS

AND OUR SOUL CAN ALREADY BE RESTORED

AND WE CAN ACTUALLY BE IN THE PATH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

AND YET STILL HAVE TO ENCOUNTER A VALLEY

BECAUSE IF THE TRUTH BE TOLD NONE OF US IS EXEMPT FROM THE VALLEYS OF LIFE

BECAUSE THERE IS A VALLEY SOMEWHERE WITH EITHER YOUR NAME OR MY NAME ON IT

AND WHEN EVER THOSE VALLEYS SHOWS UP

WE HAVE A CHOICE TO EITHER

ACT LIKE THE VALLEY DOSE`NT EXIST

OR EXCEPT THE REALITY OF THE VALLEY

BECAUSE VALLEYS OR ORDERED BY THE LORD

IN OTHER WORDS

THE LORD SELECT OUR VALLEYS

BUT NOT ONLY DOES HE SELECT OUR VALLEYS

BUT THE LORD ALSO CONTROL OUR VALLEYS

BECAUSE THERE ARE SOMETHINGS WE WILL NEVER LEARN IN LIFE UNTIL

WE GET IN THE VALLEY

CAN I BORROW A SKINNY MINUTE

AND TELL YOU WHY

BECAUSE VALLEYS WILL SHOW YOU WHO YOU`RE FRIENDS ARE

VALLEYS WILL HAVE YOU DOWN ON YOUR KNEES TALKING TO THE LORD INSTEAD OF ABOUT THE LORD

VALLEYS WILL LET YOU KNOW

WHY THE LORD IS A PRESENT HELP IN A TIME OF TROUBLE

AND IN ORDER TO DEAL WITH THE VALLEYS OF LIFE

WE HAVE TO ACCEPT THE REALITY OF THE VALLEY

***********************************

WELL NOT ONLY DO WE HAVE TO ACCEPT THE REALITY OF THE VALLEY

BUT DAVID ALSO GIVES US SOME BIBICAL INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW WE SHOULD RESPOND IN THE VALLEY

HE SAYS WE HAVE TO WALK

I KNOW A LOT OF US LIKE TO RUN THROUGH THE VALLEY

BUT DAVID REVEAL TO US WE HAVE TO WALK

BECAUSE THE LORD WANT US TO SEE AND LEARN SOMETHINGS IN THE VALLEY OF LIFE

BUT NOT ONLY SHOULD WE WALK

BUT HE ALSO REVAL TO US WE SHOULD NOT FEAR

BECAUSE FEAR WILL KEEP US

FROM WALKING AND SEEING WHAT THE LORD WANTS US TO LEARN FROM OUR VALLEY EXPERIENCE

AND YOU DO KNOW THAT FAITH AND FEAR CAN`T STAY IN THE SAME HOUSE

YOU SEE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS

THERE ARE 365 FEAR NOTS IN THE BIBLE

THERE ARE 365 DAYS IN A YEAR

AND EACH NEW DAY THE LORD ALLOWS US TO SEE

WE OUGHT TO GRAB HOLD TO ONE OF THOSE FEAR NOT

AND WALK BY FAIH AND NOT BY SIGHT

AND HOLD ON TO GOD`S UNCHANGING HAND

BUT NOT ONLY DOES DAVID TELLS US TO WALK AND FEAR NOT

BUT HE ALSO REVEALS TO US THAT HE WENT THROUGH THE VALLEY

FOR HE SAYS

YEA THOUGH I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY

AND IT`S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT

YEA THOUGH I WALK THROUGH IS A PREPOSITION

AND THE LATE DR A LOUIS PATTERSON

SAY A PREPOSITION IS A PREPOSSESION

WHICH MEANS THAT WHERE WE ARE AT NOW

IS NOT WHERE WE WILL ALWAYS BE

THAT WHY SOME FOLKS WILL TRY TO TELL YOU THAT YOUR VALLEY END WITH A PERIOD

BUT I STOP BY TO LET YOU KNOW YOU NEED TO REPLACE THE PERIOD WITH A COMMA

WHICH SUGGEST THAT I`M NOT PARKING BUT I`M PAUSING

AND THE REASON I`M PAUSING

IS TO TAKE A PRAISE BREAK

TO GIVE GOD THE PRAISE HE TRULY DESERVE.

BECAUSE THE TRUTH OF MATTER IS
