Good morning in the Name of the True Morning Star. Lucifer, although once dubbed the morning star did not appreciate his position and pretty much like Esau, he despised that which was given him. But we are speaking of the True Morning Star. His name is Jesus, and it is He who greets you this early morning with the kiss of peace.

I do not know what troubles assail you this morning. Perhaps today is the day they are about to foreclose on your property. Perhaps you lie in bed troubled about the storm brewing in your marriage. It could be that you should be up, but you are thinking about calling in to the job that you so much hate. I feel in the spirit that some of you hate your job so badly that it literally makes you sick. You see, friends, Stress is the beginning of much destruction in your life. You should really think about alleviation. Yes, Stress is the beginning of much destruction in your life, but Our God is a consuming fire, He can consume that stress. Jesus, you must understand, was distressed for your stress. Therefore, here is the word of the Lord this morning for those of you who are in such a fix.

Early will I seek thee, in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is. This is the solution to the awful fix you find yourselves in this morning. The psalmist in the 63rd Psalm so beautifully illustrated our need to seek the Lord ever so early. How early? Early in the morning? Not necessarily so, though that isn't a bad place to start. Rather, the intent is that we should seek the Lord early in the game. Be ahead of Satan and his devices, and plan your morning. The writer in Job, chapter 38 wrote: Have you ever commanded the morning, or caused the dawn to be in its place? The answer is an emphatic no! But with much gratitude do we say The Lord executes all with a simple word.

When we begin to seek God early, we will gain much strength. It is my position that the morning is when we ought to do such a seeking, that our days may be cornered and strengthened. Seeking the Lord in the morning is like one who gets an early breakfast; it gives you the much strength you will need for the day.

Let all the saints this morning give God the glory. I decree this day that your thoughts shall be established in the name of the Lord. I decree that every joint in the body shall be in place. I decree that across this very nation this very day, financial windfalls will overtake some of you like a buck chasing a doe. I decree that sickness shall lift like a blanket ripped away in the early morning, demanding that you give audience to your Creator and get to work. Let the blind say I can see. Let the deaf declare I can hear. Let the dumb be loosed to speak, and the lame stand up, ready for war. Let the afflicted of respiratory problems be loosed in a free air passage, and let the breath of the Almighty rush through their respiratory system like a mighty and raging river. Let those eaten with cancer begin to see restoration now, revealing the healing glory of our Savior. Mostly, let those whose hearts have been broken, broken with the damnable forces of sin, be mended today in Jesus' Name. Jesus, the Name above all other names. How sweet such a name. That is what time it is this wonderful morning!
