Psalm 23:4 (KJV)
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.
WORD OF GOD FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD
WHIILE YOUR STILL STANDING WILL YOU TURN TO YOUR NEIGHBOR AND TELL THEM YOUR GLAD TO SEE THEM IN THE HOUSE
BUT IT`S SOMETHING I HAVE TO TELL YOU --I`M A STUDENT AT VALLEY UNIVERSITY
MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS
NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE
NO MATTER WHERE YOU BEEN
NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE AT NOW
ARE WHERE YOU WILL BE IN THE FUTURE
ALL OF US WILL SPEND SOMETIME AT A PLACE CALL VALLEY UNIVERSITY
I KNOW THIS MAY NOT BE YOUR SCHOOL OF CHOICE
BUT ALL OF US WILL SPEND SOME TIME AT VALLEY UNIVERSITY
THERE`S NO NEED FOR YOU TO GO BY THE ADMISSION OFFICE TO FIND OUT ABOUT SCHOLARSHIP OR STUDENT LOAN INFORMATION
BECAUSE ALL OF US HAVE A FULL RIDE THAT HAS BEEN PAID IN FULL TO ATTEND VALLEY UNIVERSITY
FOR WE ALL WILL HAVE TO TAKE A FEW COURSES AND A FEW SEMESTERS
WE WILL HAVE TO TAKE SOME RIGOROUS CLASSES THAT WILL BE TAUGHT BY DR PAIN AND PROFESSOR HEARTACHE
FOR WE ALL WILL HAVE TO SIT IN THE CLASSROOM AND THE LAB ROOM TO BE TAUGHT SOMETHINGS
THAT CANNOT BE LEARNED IN NO OTHER PLACE
BECAUSE THE CLASSROOM IS WHERE GOD ALLOWS US TO BE TAUGHT
HOWEVER GOD WILL TAKE US DOWN TO THE LABATORY WHERE WE WILL BE TESTED
TO SEE IF WE CAN APPLY WHAT WE HAVE BEEN TAUGHT IN THE CLASSROOM
AND THE REASON WHY IS
BECAUSE A GOOD STUDENT IS NOT A STUDENT WHO CAN JUST RETAIN INFORMATION IN THE CLASSROOM
BUT AT VALLEY UNIVERSITY WHAT MAKES YOU A GOOD STUDENT
IS WHEN YOU TAKE WHAT WAS TAUGHT IN THE CLASSROOM AND APPLY IT IN THE LABATORY
BECAUSE IN THE LABATORY GOD PLACES THE HEAT ON OUR LIVES TO SIFT THE GOOD FROM THE BAD
AND THE REASON WHY IS
A FAITH THAT HAS NOT BEEN TESTED
IS A FAITH THAT CAN`T BE TRUSTED
AND GOD WORKS ON US TO PUT IN US WHAT HE WANTS TO COME OUT OF US
BECAUSE GOD CAN`T USE US RICHLY UNTIL HE WOUND US DEEPLY
BUT THERES A PROBLEM THAT VALLEY UNIVERSITY IS DEALING WITH
BECAUSE THE DROP OUT RATIO IS AT AND ALL TIME HIGH
AND THE REASON WHY IS
ALOT OF THE STUDENT WHO ATTEND VALLEY UNIVERSITY OR JACK UP ---SCREWED UP AND MESSED UP
AND THEY HAVE MADE UP IN THERE MINDS THEY CAN` T ENDURE THE
(TRIALS)
( TRIBULATIONS)
(HEARTACHES)
(SETBACKS) AND (PAIN )
IN OTHER WORDS
THEY HAVE LET THE ENEMY SELL THEM A LIE
AND THEY KNOW IT WAS A LIE
BUT THEY BOUGHT IT ANYHOW
SO THEY HAVE MADE UP IN THERE MINDS THAT THEY CAN`T ENDURE VALLEY UNIVERSITY
BUT I HAD A TALK WITH DAVID
AND DAVID TOLD ME TO TELL YOU`LL
THAT THE LORD CAN BE OUR
SHEPHERD
WE CAN EVEN BE GRAZING IN
THE GREEN PASTURES OF PLENTY
AND POSITION BY THE STILL
WATERS OF PEACE
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 VALLEY UNIVERSITY
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 OUR 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 BECOME A STUDENT AT VALLEY UNIVERSITY
CAN I BORROW A SKINNY
MINUTE AND TELL YOU WHY
BECAUSE VALLEY UNIVERSITY WILL SHOW YOU WHO YOU`RE FRIENDS REALLY ARE
VALLEY UNIVERSITY WILL HAVE YOU DOWN ON YOUR KNEES
TALKING TO THE LORD
INSTEAD OF ABOUT THE LORD
VALLEY UNIVERSITY WILL LET YOU KNOW WHY THE LORD IS A PRESENT HELP IN A TIME OF TROUBLE
AND IN ORDER TO BE A GOOD STUDENT AT VALLEY UNIVERSITY
WE HAVE TO ACCEPT THE REALITY OF THE VALLEY
********************************
WELL NOT ONLY DO WE HAVE
TO ACCEPT THE REALITY OF
VALLEY UNIVERSITY
BUT DAVID ALSO GIVES US
SOME BIBICAL INSTRUCTIONS
ON HOW WE SHOULD RESPOND
AS A STUDENT AT VALLEY UNIVERSITY
HE SAYS WE HAVE TO WALK
I KNOW A LOT OF US LIKE TO
RUN THROUGH OUR VALLEYS
BUT DAVID REVEAL TO US WE
HAVE TO WALK
BECAUSE THE LORD WANT US
TO SEE AND LEARN SOMETHINGS IN THE CLASS ROOM AND APPLY IT IN THE LABATORY OF LIFE
BUT NOT ONLY SHOULD WE WALK
BUT HE ALSO REVEAL TO US WE
SHOULD NOT FEAR
BECAUSE FEAR WILL KEEP US
FROM WALKING AND SEEING
WHAT THE LORD WANTS US TO
LEARN FROM VALLEY UNIVERSITY
AND YOU DO KNOW THAT FAITH
AND FEAR CAN`T STAY IN THE
SAME HOUSE
BECAUSE 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 WAS A STUDENT AT
VALLEY UNIVERSITY
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 UNIVERSITY EXPERIENCE END WITH A PERIOD
BUT I STOP BY TO LET YOU
KNOW
YOU NEED TO REPLACE
THE PERIOD WITH A COMMA
WHICH SUGGEST THAT WE ARE NOT PARKING
BUT WE ARE PAUSING
AND THE REASON WE`RE PAUSING
IS TO TAKE A PRAISE BREAK
TO GIVE GOD THE PRAISE HE
TRULY DESERVE.
BECAUSE THE TRUTH OF MATTER IS
THAT IT`S SOMEBODY HERE ON
THE SAME ROW YOU OR SITTING ON
AND JUST MIGHT SITTING IN
THE SAME SEAT YOU ARE
SITTING IN
AND YOU HAVE A PERIOD AT
THE END OF YOUR VALLEY UNIVERSITY EXPERIENCE
AND YOU NEED TO REPLACE IT
WITH A COMMA
AND REDO
IN OTHER WORDS YOU NEED TO
REDO WHAT YOU WAS DOING
BEFORE THE VALLEY EXPERIENCE SHOWED UP
AND GIVE GOD SOME PRAISE
********************************
WELL NOT ONLY DO WE HAVE
TO ACCEPT THE REALITY OF
THE VALLEY
AND RESPOND BY WALKING
AND FEAR NOT
AND PLACING A COMMA AT THE END OF OUR VALLEY EXPERIENCE
BUT DAVID ALSO REVEALS TO US
THE RESOURCES WE HAVE AT VALLEY UNIVERSITY
FOR HE SAYS THOU ART WITH
ME
AND IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND WHO THOU IS
WE EITHER HAVE TO BACK UP
OR GO FORWARD IN THE 23RD
NUMBERS OF PSALMS
BECAUSE GOD DOSE`NT OWE
US NO EXPLAINATION
BUT IN THE WORD OF GOD WILL
ALWAYS GIVE US A REVELATION
CAUSE WHEN YOU GO FORWARD TO VERSE 5
DAVID SAYS
THOU PREPARETH A TABLE
BEFORE ME IN THE PRESENCE
OF MY ENEMIES
THOU ANOINTEST MY HEAD
WITH OIL
MY CUP OVER FLOWETH
AND WHEN BACK IT UP TO
VERSE 3 HE SAID
HE---- RESTORETH MY SOUL
HE--- LEADTH ME IN THE PATHS
OF RIGHTEOUSSNESS FOR HIS
NAME SAKE
WHEN YOU BACK UP TO VERSE 2
DAVID SAYS
HE ---MAKETH ME LIE DOWN IN
THE GREEN PASTURES
HE LEADETH ME BESIDES THE
STILL WATER
BUT WHEN YOU GO TO VERSE 1
DAVID REVEALS TO US
WHO –HE AND THOU REALLY IS
FOR DAVID SAYS (THE LORD)
THE ONE THAT GOT MORE
BOOKS IN HIS NAME THAN ANY
LIBIARY CAN CONTAIN
THE ONE WHO WAS BORN AS A
HOPELESS BABY
BUT SPOKE SPINNING WORLDS
INTO EXISTENCE
AND AS AN INFANT HE
FRIGHTEN KING HEROD
AS A BOY HE CONFUSED THE
SCHOLARS
AS THE SON OF MAN MADE THE STORM OF THE SEA OF GALILLE GO TO SLEEP BY SAYING PEACE BE STILL
THE LORD
THE ONE WHO
SAILED IN SOMEBODY ELES`S
BOAT
ATE AT SOMEBODY ELSES HOUSE\
RODE SOMEBODY ELSE`S ANIMAL
THE LORD
THE ONE WHO HEAL ALL MANNER
OF DISEASES AND DID`NT CHARGE A PENNY FOR HIS SERVICE
THE LORD
THE ONE HEROD COULD`NT KILL
SIN COULD`NT SEDUCE HIM
DEATH COULD`NT HOLD HIM
AND THE GRAVE COULD`NT KEEP HIM
THE ONE WHO DIED ON A MOUNTIAN CALL CALVARY
PLACE IN A BORROWED TOMB
OH BUT EARLY SUNDAY MORNING HE GOT UP
WITH ALL POWER --
ALL P-O-W-E-R IN HIS HANDS
AND I WONDER IF
1 The LORD is my shepherd
(that call relationship)
; I shall not want.
(THATS CALL SUPPLY
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
(THATS REST)
he leadeth me beside the still waters.
(THATS CALL REFRESHMENT)
3 He restoreth my soul:
(THATS CALL HEALING)
he leadeth me in the paths of
righteousness for his name's sake.
THATS CALL GUIDIANCE
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
THATS CALL TESTING
I will fear no evil:
THATS CALL PROTECTION
for thou art with me;
THATS CALL FAITHFULNESS
thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
THAT CALLS DISCIPLINE
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies
(THATS CALL HOPE)
: thou anointest my head with oil;
THAT CALL CONCERATION
my cup runneth over.
THATS CALL BLESSING
AND WHEN YOUR CUP RUNSOVER
YOU HAVE TO LEARN SIP FROM YOUR SAUCER BECAUSE YOUR CUP HAS OVERFLOWED
SURELY - GOODNESS AND MERCY SHALL FOLLOW ME ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE
AND I WILL DWELL IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD
