Happy Thanksgiving.
Happy Thanksgiving. What can I say?
Look what the Lord has done in bringing us all together and moving us into a new place. Go care family. We just got off this prayer call where, the prayer leader just took us down this road of praying for everything, including MAHA.
Make America healthy again. This is where GoldCare this is our lane.
This is our vein, and anyone knows about good heart health, cardiovascular health. We want the blood to flow to and fro without any obstructions. Hallelujah. And doctor Simone Gold is doing that. So let's pray. Father God, in the name of Jesus, thank you lord for GoCare, for doctor Simone Gold, this vision to have faith, oh god, in action, in health, in wealth, in health share, in wellness.
Thank you for what you are doing with GoldCare and all the doctors, all the nurses, all the IT staff, all the different clients and affiliates. We thank you, father, that you will lead us in this pre thanksgiving day to just continually uplift the name of our god, Jehovah. Jehovah Jireh, our provider. Jehovah Shalom, our peace. Jehovah Tiskenu, our righteousness. Jehovah Meccadish, our banner.
Jehovah, oh my god, Rohi, the lord who sees. Thank you for the name of the lord is a strong tower. The righteous run into it, and they are safe. We thank you for it now. It's in the precious name of the god of Abraham, the god of Isaac, and the god of Jacob in the name of Jesus Christ, our lord and savior. Amen. Now look.
I knew that we were gonna get together. I knew this day some of my wife was is already starting to cook. Y'all know how we do. Cook the day before.
We and then I got a what is it called? A honey do list? Y'all know what I'm talking about. That's why I got I I I'm I'm not even gonna put my suit and tie today.
I wanna get ready to to do whatever my wife wants me to do.
And of of of course, amen. She's just so precious. She she's just getting the house together. We're gonna have family and friends over, and, we we we're just gonna relax and enjoy.
And I I want you guys to know that the work that GoldCare is doing right now to get people back online when it comes to true health and and and medicine, it is a phenomenal work. It is phenomenal, for what happened, especially after y'all know, come on, twenty twenty COVID, it exposed the system that it has become vulnerable. Yes. It has become vulnerable, to to to viruses.
And I'm not just talking about the COVID nineteen, the Wuhan flu. I'm talking about the virus of greed. Hello? The the virus of lying.
Amen. The the the virus of hatred and anger towards human life.
Yes, we become vulnerable and and and this Thanksgiving, I pray as we go over this this scripture here that that that we will now be inoculated with the proper nutrients. I've been learning so much about healing and health, amen, since I've been with GoldCare. It's just amazing. But but but we we we got to get back to understanding what truly heals America.
Make America healthy again is what truly heals America. We got foods that heal. We got vitamins and all kind. The sun.
Yeah. The vitamin D comes from the sun. If you know, we we got all kinds of ways to be healed that the lord has has provided for us and so we we want we want we want God. We want God to have his way.
We want the Lord to have his way. No shame in our game. And so let's look at these scriptures here when it when it really comes to to being thanked and what a way to end this month.
What are you thankful for? And we're talking about at the table. So when you get to the table, this Thanksgiving, the question is, what are you thankful for? We're gonna use Psalms thirty five and eighteen.
You know, we talked about Jonah last time. How he just Jonah had steps to a thankful heart. Amen. And and and and and and by the time god got done with Jonah, how many can say Jonah was thankful?
But now we're talking about at the table at the table, what are you thankful for? Now, before I go into all that, can anybody right now go around and tell me what are you gonna be thankful for? And I'm gonna be going to Psalms thirty five eighteen, but what are you thankful for at the table? What are you gonna be thankful?
I'm gonna open up the lines. I know. Surprise. Oh, I know you guys wanna hear me talk first.
No. I wanna hear you talk first.
At the table, what are you gonna be thankful for on Thanksgiving? The floor is now open.
Anybody wanna go first?
I don't wanna go first. Let somebody else go first.
I knew I see I see here, doctor John is on the Sea of Galilee.
No. That's the Sea of Pompano Beach.
Oh, man. I missed it I missed it again. Anyway, what are you thankful for, doctor John? You start first. What are you thankful for?
God, you know, bishop, I'm thankful for this bible study.
It really helps me set my week in the middle of the week, for going forth. I thank him for for god who answers prayers even though he hasn't he hasn't answered. And I'm not trying to be facetious here or trying to be flippant because sometimes we ask for things and god knows it's not best for us.
So I'm thankful he'd answer those prayers of marrying that woman that I wanted to marry, and I'm being serious about that.
I'm thankful for the fact that god has given me a new purpose and a new reason to continue living.
GoldCare has done that for me given the fact of all the stuff I went through through COVID and losing my the jobs I really love teaching students at the universities I was at. And I'm able to be able not to just use my knowledge of healing, but my knowledge of the Lord and be able to pray for people when they get on and get off and praying, give them hope. So I have an avenue to give people hope that cancer is not a death sentence. Having a Alzheimer's is not a death sentence. Whatever disease is not a death sentence. It's just a matter of understanding how God created you and putting in the nutrients that's necessary for the body to fix itself.
So I'm thankful for the friends I have, my new friends that I've made within GoldCare, my new my new brother my new brother from another mother in you. That's what I'm thankful for.
God has seen me through so much, and I complain, Bishop.
When I'm in my private room, I complain a lot to the Lord, and somehow he hasn't strike me dead.
But he still loves me, he still wants to use me. And look at the gift he's given me by letting me go to Israel again to be among people over there and to really bless those people as they have blessed me in my life.
I don't wanna take up too much time, so hopefully somebody else can come on and kinda let let everybody know what's going what they're thankful for.
Amen. I'm seeing the comments here. Happy Thanksgiving. Blessed Thanksgiving, Michelle. Cynthia says, I am thankful for this weekly prayer call and for your spiritual leadership, bishop Leon.
Well, God bless you. Hallelujah. Anybody else?
What what are you gonna be thankful for at the table?
Yeah. We need oh, go ahead.
Audrey. Whoo.
I'm thankful for this this prayer meeting, this this bible study.
I'm thankful for all of you. I've learned so much because I'm always into natural health. I'm sixty five plus, and I'm on no medication for nothing in the name of Jesus. I'm very thankful for health and strength.
Thank for for life. Thank God for putting food on my table. Thank God that they put me in a position that I can help someone that is in need. Never go lock or need, and all my bills are paid in Jesus' name. Thank you all, and I love you all.
Oh, I love that, Audrey. Kathy says happy Thanksgiving. I'm thankful for this group, my move to this property, and my family. I am thankful for all the blessings I have been given. God bless you, Kathy. That is wonderful.
Whoo. Alright, doctor Dana.
Good morning.
Good morning.
Good morning, everyone. I am so thankful for you, bishop Benjamin. I'm thank you I I'm so thankful for your leadership.
I'm thankful for the fire that you bring. I'm thankful for the messages that you bring, and I'm thankful that you have allowed us to be part of your larger areas of prayer. I attend as many mornings of the week as I can, the prayer calls, and they they are just such a a wonderful reminder that there are people all over this country praying for leadership and and not praying for our needs. Praying that the that our leaders are making the the right decisions under, God's will, under Jesus' law and the government that he holds on his shoulders.
That's about the only peace that I find is that that we have the hope that that Jesus can and the love for him can be restored in our land. I'm thankful so thankful for my family. I'm thankful for the steps I've taken in the last five years since COVID, to simplify my life and to reprioritize things, including my faith and and my daily walk with Jesus. I'm thankful for my health.
I I know that sometimes we take that for granted until we get sick, and and then it just, gives you a real understanding and appreciation for the trials that so many people face.
I guess my hope and, what I hope to celebrate next year is that this is the most popular class at GoldCare because I consider faith the foundation for GoldCare. And I think that that true health is found, through our lord and savior, and and, the spiritual health is just as important as the mental health. And, the last thing I'm really celebrating and and thankful for is that I'm having, some signs that after four long years of, past fighting about one aspect of my life that I left, behind, that it is coming to a closure.
And I'm so glad that there can be reconciliation and closing of that chapter of my life and moving forward. And I'm very, very, thankful and feel blessed that I can now, you know, shut that page, pray, that I can forgive and move on. And I I feel that happening, and it's just a joyful feeling. So for all those things and certainly for everyone that makes this class, I feel like, you know, you are my brothers and sisters, and, I'm very grateful for the fellowship we share on this call and others. Thank you.
Wow. Closing the door to one chapter in our life and opening the door to another. Wow. That's gonna be nice at the table.
We're gonna be at the table, y'all. Whether you're at the table at Golden Corral or at the table at your house, I I know about about around this time of the year, we've even taken Christmas and and gone out of town. I know that sounds crazy because most people stay at home on Christmas, but we're older now. Our kids are grown.
So sometimes me and my wife go somewhere else for Christmas. Amen. But now we got grandkids now. Oh god.
So we we probably gonna be planted here. So I'm gonna be thankful at the table just to see the growth of our family, the expansion of our family. It's it's like the kingdom of god. I'm thankful for GoldCare.
My god. Doctor Simone Gold, that lady is crazy. She took on the whole system.
And look. God has given her favor. So I'm so thankful to be a part of this and thankful that I've met all of you guys and and and doctor Dana and and and doctor John and doctor Thomas and and all of you guys here, Cynthia and Marcy and Michelle and Audrey and Kathy and Diana. My god.
It's just and Vanessa and the one ending in o oh, is it five zero nine four? Love you. Love you. Love you.
And all those that have come on the call previously, this has been a major shift for me. I never thought I'd be doing this, but I am very thankful. Thankful for my wife, Maria, my children, they're Carmen, Leon, and Destiny, and I have grandkids now, Amira and Amir. Thankful, to my family, my sisters, Angie and Dawn, my mother and mother-in-law.
It's just so much, my church family, Remnant, and New Life. I got two churches now. Lord, since COVID, we planted another church in Oklahoma.
Oh my god. In Tulsa. That church has been going on now for four years. It'll be five years next year.
And so it's it's it's a lot of things to be thankful. I'm thankful for president Donald j Trump. I am thankful for that man. I know a lot of people don't like him.
I don't like him sometimes. Hello. But that's my friend. That's what friends are for. Right?
Who can you if you can't get mad at your friends, they're not really good friends.
Okay? So you're not not always gonna agree. But but but thankful for president Donald Trump in this United States now that we think I think we got another chance, a reprieve, because we should have been dead and gone, destroyed by our enemies, and god has given us another chance. Alright.
I'm done right there because I I'm gonna just gonna, get out the way. Anybody else thankful? What at the table. What are you gonna be thankful for?
Anybody else before I move on?
Uh-oh. Good morning, everyone. Thomas.
I I've been listening to, I I don't know I don't know for how many weeks now.
I I really appreciate and and and touches my heart and and my soul with each week coming here. This is my church and the the people on here and and what everyone has to share is just amazing. And I I know you just see my name that pops up on the screen and and I haven't participated very much, but but my ears have been listening and and this has really been good for for my soul and and my faith.
As far as Thanksgiving, my gosh, I have so much to be thankful for. It's just been an amazing year for me.
For the few people on here who know my background, I or or I should say those who don't.
During COVID, I I was caretaker for my parents, Lost my mother to COVID because of an unknowing sister that was trying to do the right thing and and ended up doing the wrong thing and had a series of family deaths right in a row, and it was very tragic. Had had five deaths in a row, resulted in had four different family members that had mental breakdowns as a result and trying to cope with all that.
It was really dark time in my life and but it absolutely changed me and went from having my marriage destroyed and my family destroyed to starting over again and starting from scratch. And, miss Benjamin, you mentioned every week how thankful you are for GoldCare. I'm very thankful for GoldCare as well.
GoldCare gave me a new opportunity, a new start, and, specifically, I'm grateful to doctor Dana because I started speaking with her when I was coming out of a dark time, and and and she was open and gave me a chance. And and now I'm I'm able to help GoldCare try and bring, you know, real health care to the world. And and so it's real satisfying to me to have that opportunity. And, obviously, it helps me to put food on the table and pay my bills.
But so went through a very dark period.
This year, the my crazy roller coaster, everything turned from negative to positive and had a wonderful woman enter my life.
And Juliana and I are were engaged in getting married next week. And I went from losing almost my entire family to now I'm gaining a family.
We've got three girls and and my gosh, I I needed a family and and they needed someone who is a father figure, and and it's just been an amazing match, and I couldn't be more thankful. It's I I couldn't be happier right now. It's that there's been so much wonderful that that's coming to my life. And and and with this journey, it's really given me clarity in in how god plays a role in our life every day. I was oblivious to it before, but but I'm not now. I I I see it every day, and and I'm so thankful.
So I I I just wanted to share that that that story, and and I I wanna wish everyone a very happy Thanksgiving. And, yeah, be grateful for what you've got. And and if it's a dark time for you, just understand that staying true to the Lord and and staying true to yourself is what's gonna help to bring the the light back around. So and thanks for the time, everyone. Happy Thanksgiving.
Wow. This this is what this is all about. Thank you so much, Thomas. I called Thomas doctor Thomas. I know he's not a doctor, but he he's a doctor to what he knows how to do. Hello, somebody.
But, I am thankful for for that testimony and all of your testimonies today. Anybody else?
I've read some of your comments, but anybody else wants to come out there?
Alright. Maybe you'll come back on the end. But, that was beautiful, Thomas. I think that what we have right here, Psalms thirty five eighteen encapsulates what giving of thanks is.
I will give thanks, it says in Psalms thirty five eighteen. I will give thanks in the great congregation. That's what I call GoldCare family. You are a great congregation.
What does that word mean great? Make America great again. Right? You ever heard that word before?
Well, that word great is the word is rob or rab. I'm sorry. It's not it's rab, r a b. It it it means many, great, much, captain.
Uh-oh. You are the the captain. When I so so I I make fun of my wife sometimes and I say because because she kinda runs, you know, some of the affairs of the of one of our businesses, of course, the home, the children. And I sometimes say, okay.
Aye aye, captain. That word right there means great.
Great. So if somebody says captain in the Hebrew, it means great. You are great. It means enough, mighty, greater. My goodness. GoldCare is a great congregation.
Come on, somebody. Don't you dare downsize your life ever again after this Thanksgiving. You are great, Rab.
And and it it sounds like a street slang. What's up, Rab?
But it means captain, great, mighty, enough, multitude, GoldCare is a multitude of caregivers and and primary care practitioners.
Naturopathic healers. Glory be to god.
Great and and and I'm just saying, what where we going to what's going to happen? I believe GoldCare is going to become a great healthcare congregation. A congregation of doctors and nurses and people who have just said, you know what? There has to be a better way to walk in good health.
As the scripture says in the New Testament, he says, I would have you to be in what? To prosper and be in good health even as your soul prosper. That's in third John, and and verse number two. I would have it what?
To you be in what? To prosper.
That word is we get the word Irene, like shalom, peace, to prosper and be in good health even as your soul, which is your mind, will, and emotions. And what GoldCare is is is going forward and and and the things that it's doing, you know, if your mind is jacked up, the rest of you is gonna be jacked up. So it's not just a matter of taking medicine. It's also about dealing with the soul, the soul, a great congregation.
And this word congregation, of course, is the word is.
It means assembly, company. So anytime we come together, that's called assembly. So just like the congress comes together. Right? So they're they're they're a congregation.
You know what? I think they forgot about that. When David said, blessed is the man who walketh not in the council of the ungodly nor standeth in the way of sinners nor sit in the seat of the scornful. He was talking about the congregation, the great assembly.
The church is called the assembly of god, the ecclesia. Yes. His called out ones. We are called an assembly, the general assembly.
There goes that word. There go there goes that captain again. There goes that greatness. The the the everything we do now.
When you're at the table this Thanksgiving, just think about how great is our god. Hallelujah And and then if he's a great god and a good god, then you and I are also great. Come on. God doesn't make no garbage.
God doesn't make as my grandma would say, god don't make no mess.
Alright? God don't god, he he he made man in in the, what, the sixth day and he said, it is very good. Hallelujah. And and and so this whole thing about David saying, I will give thanks.
Of course, the word thanks, of course, the word is yada. It's a type of praise. You got Toda, yada. You got Tehila.
You know? And when we say hallelujah, it's all kinds of ways to give praise to God. Well, this is one of them, yada. And this one means to give thanks, to make it.
Actually, in yada, you can also make a confession. So not only are you clapping your hands and raising your hands or whatever, you're saying something out of your mouth, which is what I tried to get y'all to say today. So you y'all when you y'all die god and give thanks, you actually make a confession. Now most people think making a confession is about talking about your sins.
No.
Your confession is about what you confess about your knowledge of the king. Well, what and and this is what you guys did today. That's why I wanted you to go first. You yada god.
You said god is good. God has made a way. God has opened up a door. God has started a new chapter in my life.
God has healed my body. God has given me another family. God has did come on, somebody. Giving me property.
God has healed the land. God has given us a president that loves America. Hello, somebody. So when you yada god, you have to, I have to, we have to, doctor Gold has to, gotta say something.
That's my New York accent. Say something. You gotta say something. You cannot give thanks in certain situations where you're just saying, no.
In this case, David, who was a singer y'all know David loved to sing. He he wrote a hundred and fifty songs right in the middle of the bible. God said, bam. You wanna know what to sing?
Sing what David sang. Hello, somebody. But David had to confess. Look at all the situations he's been in.
Come on. Rejected by his brothers, counted, you know, the last by his father.
You know, god bless Jesse. But at least he did come around and say, yeah. I got one more, but he's out there with the stinky sheep.
But look what my wife preached a message called get the oil.
Samuel got that oil and started stopped crying over Saul and got that oil and went to the house of Jesse to find the next king. Whoo. Oh, give thanks. You know David is going like crazy by the time he gets to Psalms thirty five, and he's just getting started.
Oh, give thanks. Now now remember, he started off with the whole, Psalms thirty five. Plead my cause, oh, Lord, with them that strive with me. Fight against them that fight against me.
I pray that. Yes. I do. If you look at Psalms thirty five and one, we gotta sometimes get in the position and the posture where god starts to fight for us, and that's what god is doing for Doctor Gold and GoldCare and all of us, all of you all.
There's some things where you just like Doctor John. Doctor John says, I go to god and argue with him. Why hasn't this happened? Why hasn't that happened?
I need this and I need that. Could you imagine Doctor John in an argument with god?
Hallelujah and god is going, okay.
Alright. And David says, plead my cause, oh lord, with them that strive with me. There's some people that are striving with GoldCare.
And we're going to get in this position, this posture where we say fight against them. Come on. Y'all get, come on. Start getting used to this. Because some fights you are not meant to get in.
This Thanksgiving, don't you let the devil draw you into a fight. Oh, no. No. No.
No. No. No. You look. The moment you feel your your temperature rise, go get a turkey leg.
How about that? Go get some cranberry sauce. Go get some eggnog. Whatever. Come on somebody.
But but when you feel your temperature rise, do what David said. David said, no god. I need you to go into the courtroom and be my what? My advocate.
That's what the word paracoleo what we talk about the holy spirit would be a what? A comforter. Paracoleo. It means one who comes alongside to help.
We get the word paraclete. It means helper. Sort of like a wife. The the the god said, Adam, you need a paraclete.
You need a helper.
One who comes alongside to help you, boy because cheetah and the lion and the elephant are not suitable help. So my wife is now doing a whole series about understanding what it means to be suitable help. But this is what David is saying. I need you, oh God, to come alongside of me and start to advocate for my cause.
This is what doctor Gold has done so eloquently. She's advocated for the cause of the poor, of the sick, of those who have been taken advantage of, of those who can't trust doctors anymore, can't trust going to a hospital and you end up coming out dead. Come on somebody. Can't and and she's now stood in that place of the word plead, which is the word robe robe.
It sounds like robe, but it's robe, r o o b, robe. It it it means to contend.
Oh, to debate. How would you like God to contend with your enemies this Thanksgiving? I am. I can't fight some of this stuff.
Some of this stuff is crazy. The stuff that we're dealing with with the White House, with the with with with this radical Islamist movement that's trying to take over our nation, we have to ask god to come in and plead our cause. Fight against them that fight against us. Glory be to god.
Notice I went from me to us. So, when I pray for GoldCare, it goes from me to us. Me, come on. You you get what and David understood this because so so they're fighting against David.
They're fighting against Israel. Hello? Come on. Y'all are bigger. Come on. GoCare is not just GoCare.
GoCare is a national and international movement. When they fight GoldCare, they're fighting a whole health care system. When they fight GoldCare, they're fighting a slew of doctors and nurses who have made decisions to say no to COVID nineteen and doctor Fauci and the CDC and the WHO. Come on, somebody.
No. You're not just fighting doctor Gold. You're fighting a vision.
When you fight president Trump, you're fighting make America great again. You're fighting MAGA. You're not just fighting no one man. You're fighting everything that's behind him, that's standing with him. There's a lot of folk that's standing with doctor Gold right now, including us. And when we see how god can go in and fight, woah, that word fight there is.
Come on. When you say it, you gotta you gotta you gotta spit that out somewhere in your throat.
And and and so it means to war. Uh-oh. To make war. Wait a minute. So I'm not gonna make war with you because I don't have enough tools. I don't have enough information, enough facts, but I know one who does.
I know god has all the facts. I know god has all the weapons of our warfare. Come on, somebody. I know god sees your secrets.
I know god knows things that I don't know. So, I will ask god. Is anybody gonna do this? Come on.
Is anybody gonna do this this Thanksgiving? Ask god to make war with them who want to war with you. This is what's going on with Islam right now. They are literally telling us they want to make war with America.
What are we gonna do? Sit back and cry? Act pitiful? Oh, heck no. We gonna take out Psalms thirty five and say, god, they wanna make war with us.
You make war with them.
Now you could do this in the health care field too. All those in the health care field that want health care destroyed, no. They're making war against the American citizens. So guess what? We gonna go ahead and say, god, plead our cause and make war with them who want to destroy our health care system. See, I don't have already made up my mind.
I'm making war with Obamacare.
I'm just telling you right now. It must be destroyed.
It has to go. Premiums have gone through the roof. Hello, somebody. I mean, me and my wife were paying some somewhere around three hundred and twenty dollars for a family.
It went to almost seven hundred dollars, eight hundred dollars for a family because of Obamacare. What the heck? Come on now. No.
Destroy it.
Take it out.
We don't need it anymore. And then the fight over, you know, when the government got shut down, all these subsidies and everything that the democrats wanted, they were literally saying, keep spending money where money doesn't count. So what does that mean? Keep spending money where money doesn't count? That's called debt.
Any money you don't count, get it, account for, turns into debt. Hello? So they like thirty six trillion dollars worth of debt. No.
No. No. No. We here at GoldCare know that every penny counts. Every bit of your time, your energy, your money, the whole membership program, that probably might be going up soon a few dollars.
But, hey, think about having access to all these wonderful primary care doctors and people who have information that other doctors are willing to give. I think the membership starts to make it make sense. Glory be to god. Think about having a membership with Amazon.
How many got a membership with Amazon Prime? I love it. I get free shipping. Get a lot of stuff other than just movies, but it's it's it's it's it's just it's about understanding understanding how god through the giving of thanks allows us to be in this new place where not only is god fighting for us, not only is god pleading our case, but it's saying he is going to, what, in verse two, take hold of shield and buckler and stand up for my help.
Boy, if we ever needed god to stand up for America, it's right now.
Nobody else is standing up for America. My goodness. We need god to stand up for our help. And a shield and a buckler, I love this. We know that these are weapons. Amen. A shield.
Basically, it means a protector.
During this Thanksgiving, we want god to protect us in every way, spiritually, socially, emotionally, financially, physically. We need god as a shield.
The word is.
It almost sounds like megaphone or juggernaut, but the word is in the Hebrew. And and and and and anything with with the word, the word is.
It's it's it's it's it's something where we want God to be a defense, and we want him.
He has all the evidence of why the enemy wants to destroy us anyway. So he would be a perfect Meganah. The word is, Meganah. He would be basically, the word is scales, like scales with scales. In other words, god has the balance of everything going on. You know the enemy. What the enemy likes to do is what?
Tip the scales. Right? He wants to he wants to make it seem like, oh, no. We can't we no.
It's it's too much imbalance. We we can't figure this out. Let's keep on trying to figure it out. The devil is a liar.
God balances the scales and say, no. This is the solution. This is what I love about GoldCare. We we balance the scales when it comes to health care.
It it there's some medicines you should never be taking if you're sick.
Come on somebody. There's some things you should never be doing if if you have certain symptoms and what we find out through COVID nineteen, they were doing stuff that were tipping the scales towards death and not life.
And so, god is awesome and I know this Thanksgiving. I'm just going to stop right here.
I wanna get your comments. This is gonna be a good giving of thanks. You guys are gonna know that god is fighting, god is warring, and god is tipping, putting the scales back in balance for you and I.
God is doing some stuff y'all, and you can talk about it. Just let everybody know. God, the devil thought this is a song we used sing in the old Pentecostal church. The devil thought he had me, but I got away.
Yes. I got away. The devil thought he had her. He thought he had us, but we got away because god came into our situation. Alright.
Comments, considerations, prayer requests, this pre Thanksgiving Day. Who who is out there? I see Michelle.
Okay. I got my courage up to talk. I just you know, I'm thankful for so many things. It's incredible. But every morning, I wake up. I think of I don't know if you have all have watched the chosen, but there's a line where Matthew is talking. And he says, every morning, all I have to do is know that I have to follow Jesus.
And, you know, just being thankful and letting him lead and guide us just makes life so much simpler. So many people are living in fear and anxiety, and they get so overwhelmed by everything. But if we focused on all I have to do today is follow Jesus, It makes our life a lot simpler. And the more you spread the gospel to the people around you, you know, the easier it gets. And I was with my daughter, and I always say, you know, have a blessed day or, you know, some something to bless somebody. And she was surprised how positive responses I got because she's afraid to even say it because they've made us afraid because the enemy has pushed that on us. And it's like, no.
You know, we can't live that way. We have to live showing showing the world the gospel through what we say and what we do. I've learned this year so much how our words and how speaking over ourselves. People pray for healing, but then they go around and tell everybody how sick they are.
Those words matter, and those words negate your prayers.
And so, that's been, you know, big part of my learning this year. I am so thankful that, probably, what is it, three years ago now, I found Reawaken America that introduced me to a lot of people that I had never heard of before.
It introduced me to GoldCare.
As a single person, you know, you feel like you're forced to have health insurance.
So, you know, two plus years ago, I opted out of health insurance and went into GoldCare, and it's just been wonderful. Of course, this is my favorite class.
But it's so wonderful to be in a community of like minded people, you know, both, you know, from a health perspective when you see that the health system is sick care, not health care, and, you know, from the spiritual side, and you can get both of those together.
So it's been just wonderful. I'm thankful for my family, my children. My daughter got engaged a couple years ago or a couple weeks ago, we'll have a wedding next year. So we're very, you know, very thankful for that.
My son's doing well.
And, you know, I am over the flu. I asked for prayers last week because I was fighting, you know, one of one of the various things that are out there, but I'm feeling better.
We did lose my father this year, but I, you know, praise and thank that my mother is doing well. She's eighty four. He would have been eighty eight on December fourth.
And so she's somebody who, you know, the doctor starts suggesting taking medication. She's like, no. I'm not gonna do that. You know, dad was on twelve different things before he went into the hospital, and I think that contributed a lot to where he was.
And, you know, it's just the the Lord has provided for me in every way possible. I just nine years out from a divorce, I was you know, came out of the divorce with really nothing, and the Lord has provided exponentially. He recovered me from all of that.
And I pray that the Lord has somebody for me to walk with. So I'm hoping that I'll meet that person soon.
Oh my god. Don't don't you dare let me find out about that because now I will be praying that he you find it right in the Walmart aisle while you're getting lettuce. Glory be to god.
We we have prayed this year a couple of times for me to find somebody to walk with.
Oh, well, I'll go pastor Maria and I call the lovemakers. We are the lovemakers. Yes. Yes. Yes.
We need you to receive it.
So, father, we just thank you. Oh, yeah. Let them let them let them let them be pumping gas, and he goes, can I help you with this gas?
Well Love you.
I will have quite the testimony of how I meet that person.
Yes, Lord. Strange things have happened when love is in the air. But god bless you, Michelle. Go ahead.
No. I was just gonna say, and I do thank, you know, the Lord that I'm here in America, that we do have a president that loves America because, you know, I always knew that there was a problem. But when Obama came in, you knew he hated America. It's like, how could we ever have a president that hates America? I never thought I'd see the day.
So I'm just so thankful for that.
And I pray every day that the for the protection of the Lord who the Lord is raising up at this time to help save this country.
And plus GoldCare and all of you do. And I thank all of you for being here every week because I just love this class.
Praise and thank you.
Amen. God bless you, Michelle, I I saw a statement here, Michelle. Fear. Jennifer says few ever already realize, the truth.
That's, yeah, that's real fear. I I I have another acronym, false evidence of being real, but I like this one. Few ever already realized the truth. Thank you, Jennifer.
Jennifer says, be victorious, not a victim. Hallelujah. Doctor Dana says, Michelle, thank you for your testimony. Congratulations on your daughter engagement.
Hallelujah. Doctor Thomas, says congratulations to you, Michelle, and Kathy says congratulations, Michelle. Cynthia says, just wonderful to hear this all. Michelle, congratulations.
I love this. I love this.
Doctor Dana says, thank you, Thomas. You are a blessing to me and GoldCare. Amen. So this this is just a great time. Alright. Doctor John.
Well, commercial introduction. Hey, Thomas. Doctor Daniel, what do you think about the new cap and the new shirt?
Let me see if I can get up.
Love the color.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. I'm putting together a merch store. Only kidding. But, anyway, I'm looking at wearing this John.
I love it. Love it? Yeah. I'm looking at this hat to Israel.
I love it, John.
Isn't the color beautiful?
It is.
I also made a white one. My color's really red, but I really love the way it's, it brings out the gold and the white, the blue also. And blue is also also the color of the Israeli flag. So anyway Nice.
Nice job.
Thank you. Wow. That was a Vistaprint did it for me. Anyway, getting back to the bible study now that we had our commercial interruption.
Psalm thirty six, I wanna read this. It's right next right over. I'm gonna start in verse five. Something that we really need to be thankful for.
The Psalmist, it's headed this way, in your light we will see light. Then the first four verses are talking about wickedness. But then verse five, says this, sorry for the I don't know if you can hear the cutting the lawn outside.
Your loving kindness, O Yahweh, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies. Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep.
Oh, Yahweh, you save man and beast. How precious is your loving kindness, oh God. The sons of men take refuge in the shadow of your wings. I really love that line right there because that that's a line that Jesus used as he went into Jerusalem just which they call Palm Sunday.
He said, Jerusalem, Jerusalem, if you only knew who was coming upon you, then I wanted to gather you like chicks under my wings.
Protection. They're satisfied with the richness richness of your house, and you give them to drink of the river of your delights.
For with you is the fountain of life.
In your light, we see light. Continue your loving kindness to those who know you and your righteousness to the upright in heart. Let not the foot of pride come upon me, and let not the hand of the ungodly drive me away. Very important. As I'm preparing to leave on this very special trip to Israel, I have been come against by so many people in the last few days. It's not even funny.
But I have to allow myself to be humble in the face of this aggravation that I do not allow my pride and my anger to overcome the goodness that God is doing in my life.
And then it ends this way, there the workers of wickedness has fallen and they have been thrusted down and cannot rise. And as we look at this and we looked at as a growing, assault of Islam in our country because several of our presidents allowed us, both republican and democrat, that we have to understand if you read the the book of revelation, especially the last two chapters, God overcomes. And it's a matter for us to call upon his mercy and his grace to watch over us and guide us, understanding that everything that we're seeing is leading up to the second coming of Yeshua.
You know, I don't know if you did this, Leon, but we were asked to give like a thirty minute to, I mean, thirty minutes thirty second to minute presentation about why we should be, upholding Israel or why we should be, protecting Israel.
And it was real simple for me.
Genesis twelve, in terms of those nations that bless you, and he's talking about Abraham, will be blessed. Those nations that curse you will be cursed. But then it was Revelation.
Revelation twenty one where Jesus comes down on the Mount of Olives and opens up that closed gate that sometimes they have behind you. Right now, that is the Sea of Galilee, just to let you know, brother Leon, just for you, and opens up that gate and he comes in and he takes possession of Jerusalem and the world. You see, my home is not just a miracle or Florida. I have to get out of South Florida. I need to move somewhere else.
And I'm somewhere in Florida somewhere, but just keep that in prayer for me.
But my next home and my permanent home is going to be Jerusalem because that's where God will dwell forever and ever and ever.
And we need to understand that as antisemitism rises even from our so called rights or far right as they're seeing in the news, it's all part of the plan. It's all part of the plan to let Israel know the United States will never always protect them. Only the god of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is going to protect them from now into eternity.
So that's why I lift my eyes and I look towards Israel and Jerusalem because as it goes in Jerusalem, as it goes in Israel, it goes here. And I have to give thanks to God, especially for leaving his word with us, then I know how it's going to unfold and play out and have nothing to fear as a once great president, FDR. Some people think he wasn't that great, but I'm also named after him. FDR says, no. It was actually Winston Churchill. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself, and that's where faith comes in. That's another acronym that God gave me about thirty years ago as a young pastor.
Full acknowledgment and trusting him. Faith. Full acknowledgment and trusting him. And we have to continue to trust him even when things look dark because as the darkness continues, and I've been up since three thirty in the morning, believe it or not.
Even though as things are dark, as it gets towards the light, it gets darker before the light springs forth.
And those one of those pictures was from that that's that sun sunrise picture was from yesterday morning.
I was on the beach at, I don't know, five o'clock in the morning, went the sun to rise, and it got darker before the light burst forth. So always understand that.
Wow.
Jesus, the lord, is coming.
Second Peter talks about what manner of conversation should we be knowing that everything is gonna it's not gonna be a flood this time. It's gonna be fire. I don't know how that fire is gonna come, but this fire is a refiner's fire. It's coming to refine everything.
And what what's left after fire remains, like gold, silver, but then you have wood, hay, and stubble that get burnt up.
There's some things that god is getting out of our lives through thanksgiving.
Every time you give thanks, god reveals unto you what is not worth worth it anymore. Let it go. Leave it alone. Get rid of it. Every time you give thanks unto the lord, he shows you something you don't need.
Every time, it's always something. And the the enemy is hoping that we stop doing inventory. That's why David kept on writing these songs. Give thanks.
Give thanks. Give thanks. Give thanks. Give thanks.
Because David was finding out in his very own life. There are some things he doesn't need to hang on to anymore. He needs to let it go.
And, apostle Paul picked it up and saying, I press towards the mark. So, doctor John, you you're giving us some things that, you know, we gotta keep on giving thanks, and I love it. We just gotta keep on giving thanks. I I told my wife, I've been married now, be thirty four years this December twentieth, And I say thank you, Lord, for my wife.
Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. And and I I I prayed crazy stuff with my wife now. Like, Lord, take four years off of her life every year.
Let her get younger and younger and younger every year. Four years younger every year. Four years younger every year. And I praying crazy prayers like that because when you give thanks, you can be more creative.
You can think of things that you couldn't think of before, and and David saw even god fighting his enemies. Now, y'all know David could fight. How many know David could fight? David could fight.
Alright? He knocked Goliath's head off and cut his head off. So, David could fight but David also realized, if I give enough thanks unto the lord, I can even imagine god fighting. How many want to imagine god fighting this Thanksgiving?
Seeing god pay your bills this Thanksgiving. Seeing god get you out of debt this Thanksgiving.
Seeing God save your children. Come on. Use your imagination when you give thanks. Seeing God save your children from disease or sickness or from crazy relationships.
I know what I'm talking about. Seeing God do it. Hallelujah. Get them out of there, lord.
Get my daughter out of that. Get my son out of that, lord. Glory be to god. That's what, that's what god likes to do when we give thanks. He likes to do things that goes what?
Now unto him who's able to do exceedingly, abundantly Abundantly. Above. Hallelujah. All that we could dare to ask or think according to the power that works in us that believe. So, look, happy Thanksgiving, everybody.
Well, we went to the brink on this call today because I wanted to hear from you all, and I thank god for you all. I pray that doctor Gold and GoldCare, have a wonderful wonderful we here at GoldCare, we want you all on behalf of doctor Gold and all the doctors and nurses and staff. We pray that you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
And don't eat too much because my doctor told me, how are you gonna get past Thanksgiving? I said, I'm gonna pretend I'm eating a lot, but I'm not.
Hallelujah. I'm gonna get through it just like the rest of you all. You're gonna get through it. So any final words, doctor John?
I love you guys. Happy Thanksgiving, doctor, Dana, doctor Thomas. I know I call him doctor, but I'm so used to saying it now. Thomas and Kathy and Audrey and Marcy and Michelle, Vanessa, iPhone SE third generation.

Yeah. Jennifer says wear stretchy pants.
I think that's great. You know, a lot of my family has passed on. So some of them are waiting for me in heaven and some not so.
So I know that family can drive you crazy.
Just love them.
Just love them and thank God they're still in your life.
I don't have that luxury anymore. I have to wait until I get to the promise the true promised land in heaven to see them again. So just give thanks that you still have family in your life and that, as as much as they could they could drive you crazy, maybe they're on the wrong side of history, so to speak, still love them and don't get into fights. Ain't worth it. Ain't worth it. Just love them. Just love them no matter what in the Lord's name.
I love that. Look, gang. You guys heard it from everybody today in the comments.
Marcy says, I'm thankful for all the encouragement from all participants this morning. Have a blessed Thanksgiving weekend. Jennifer says faith equals full acknowledgment, trust in him. I love it. Thank you, doctor John.
