Happy Father's Day.

All the fathers in the house.

Yeah.

Welcome those watching online.

So glad you're joining us.

Fireside, patio, Job chapter 1.

That's where we're going to be.

Job chapter 1. We are pausing a little bit on our series called Blinded.

But I wanted to take this time right now to introduce my family.

And so at our wedding I saw my father, my father-in-law and my wife.

They participated in the father-daughter dance, something that happens here in America quite a few times.

But in Africa, you don't get to see that in Uganda as much.

And so they cried as they danced this whole sentimental song.

And it was very touching.

And to this day, 23 years later, people who attended our wedding were like, man, that moment where your wife danced with her dad, that was super amazing.

And I hope that, you know, when I saw that, I hope, man, one day.

You know, I don't know whether I'll cry a lot, but, you know, but maybe I will.

I don't know.

When I dance with my daughters, I have two daughters right now, and that would be, it was such a cool moment to see.

My father wasn't, he was a good man.

He was trying.

He grew up a tough time, but he had a lot to deal with, a lot to overcome.

And so his last few years of his life, there was a lot of alcohol involved and self-medication, and I was fortunate enough.

to have some men in my life, my pastor and my best friends, a father who really helped me as I watched the example of being a father trying to honor God in their lives.

See my wife and I stay attending church, well we attended before we got married, I came and visited here, she came over there and we listened to a lot of the tapes from Pastor Chuck as I sent them over in Uganda, we lived there, but two of our, there's some pictures going to show up right now, but two of our oldest children are born in Uganda, and then the two were born in California, and then when we moved over here, got involved in everything from worship to kids' teams, mission trips, they have served in a cafe, community groups, care.

So yeah, that's my family right there.

Cool.

Yeah.

So my wife has been such a great, great help because I grew up in a dysfunctional home.

She's been really helpful to help me see blind spots in my life as I try my best to be a good father.

But you know two weeks ago our youngest graduated from high school, Bonita, you know, and so starting a new season.

Yeah.

Question I have is fatherhood dying.

Do men have dreams to be fathers?

There's this institute called America First Policy Institute.

They took some census data And they said approximately 18 million children in the U.S.

live without a biological father.

Okay?

Without a biological father, stepfather, adoptive father present in the home.

Nationally, more than 80% of children in a single-parent home live with just their mothers.

Okay?

Why these numbers?

Is fatherhood such a bad thing?

Why are men abdicating their responsibilities?

Well, I have a few theories which I think are true.

It's one, the growth of feminism.

Two, the celebration of the sexual revolution, increased government warfare, and then the erosion, of course, of our Judeo-Christian values.

And I was asking myself, how can we preserve fatherhood?

How can we inspire young men to say, man, I want to be a dad.

I want to be a dad one day.

You know, well, I'm going to do this sermon in two movements, and I hope that this helps you.

I hope you don't get confused.

I'm going to talk to dads first, then I'm going to talk to all of us, and hopefully at the end, it will come together.

So Job chapter 1, verses 1 to 5.

Here we go.

There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job.

And this man was blameless, upright, fearing God, and turning away from evil.

By the way, I usually use the NASB or the NLT.

That's usually my translations that I use if anyone wants to know that, okay?

There's a man in the land of Oz whose name was Job, and the man was blameless, upright, fearing God, and turning away from evil.

Seven sons and three daughters were born to him.

His possessions were 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, 500 female donkeys.

I wondered why they said female donkeys.

I don't know, but that was interesting.

Just saying.

And very many servants.

And that man was the greatest of all the men in the east.

His sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each one on his day.

And they would send word and invite their three sisters to eat drink with them.

When the days of feasting had completed their cycle, Job would send word to them and consecrate them.

Getting up early in the morning and offering burnt offerings according to the number of them all.

For Job said, perhaps my sons have sinned and cursed God in their hearts.

Job did so continually.

All right, so some background here for you that I thought was interesting.

One, of course, many of you know Pastor Jeff already told you this.

Job is the oldest book in the Bible.

And Job was a real person.

He's not fiction.

He was a real person.

In fact, he's mentioned in Ezekiel and James.

And he lived in the land of Uz in the Arabian desert between Palestine and Euphrates.

Right there, I've got a map for you to see that, okay?

This country may have been named after Noah's great-grandson or Abraham's nephew, both named Uz, okay?

Matthew Henry, who is a commentator, a theologian, suggests he was probably related to Abraham through Abraham's brother.

Whether or not he was related.

is not important, but that he lived during the time of Abraham, who left Ur in Chaldea, which is placed on the map, which you can see in Genesis chapter 11, north of Oz.

And according to Hugh Ross, some of you have heard him, Job is referenced by extra-biblical writings dated as early as 2000 BC.

So we know Job existed.

You know, it's interesting, I can't imagine, you know, saying, hey, my name is Michael, I'm from Ur.

You're Job, I'm from Ur.

You know, it's just interesting names.

I just thought that was funny.

Ur, Ur, interesting names.

Squirrel.

During this time, God was known generally as Shaddai or El Shaddai, God Almighty.

And his name, El Shaddai, is mentioned 33 times in the book of Job.

And, of course, we know...

Abraham mentions that as well.

So what was Job's score as a father?

Let's break it down.

I think it's interesting.

I call Job, number one, Job the valedictorian.

Okay?

There was a man, verse 1, in the land of Oz whose name was Job.

And that man was blameless, upright, fearing God, and turning from evil.

So he was blameless.

There was no fault in him.

He was not sinless.

He had sinned, but he was blameless.

It was his moral integrity, more like Daniel.

When someone tried to find dirt on him, there was nothing they could find on him.

He was upright.

This refers to sincerity.

Job was who he was on the inside, and when people saw him, what he was on the outside.

He was the same person.

He feared God.

The basis of his morality was exceptional reverence.

For God and regard for God's authority.

And during this time, of course, they worshipped the sun and the moon.

They were worshipped.

But just like Abraham and Abraham's brother Nahor, Job worshipped El Shaddai.

The Bible says also he turned away from evil.

He departed from evil.

He didn't like its practice or its presence.

Because Job feared God, he found...

evil offensive to God.

An example, Job 31 verse 1 says, I made a covenant with my eyes not to look with lust at a young woman.

That's how Job was amazing.

Okay, in Job chapter 1, we are taken into the heavens and there is a heavenly council convening angels and all these amazing angelic hosts and Satan, the accuser, is there.

This is what the Bible says.

Then, The Lord asked Satan, have you noticed my servant Job?

He's the finest man in all the earth.

He's blameless, a man with complete integrity.

He fears God and stays away from evil.

How is Job's score so far?

Right?

He's awesome, right?

He's just like, God is like, Satan, look at that guy over there.

Right?

What if?

All fathers were described by God like this.

This is awesome.

Can you measure up?

Can I measure up?

I don't think so.

I don't think so.

I can't measure up to that, can I?

I don't know, right?

Job sounds like a valedictorian.

That one student at graduation, right?

Who gets recognized for everything.

You've been to the graduation and that kid gets recognized for everything.

Top performance for general classes, 50 AP classes, right?

And so on, they get ribbons for everything, they get certificates for everything, they get medals for everything.

You know that one student, right?

I think that's Job right there.

So Job is a valedictorian.

He is an amazing guy.

Number two, Job is a priestly father.

Okay, Job had 10 children, seven boys, three girls, and was extremely wealthy.

Note, each son had his own house.

It seems like, and they were older as well, and they were already established in their own right.

They were probably wealthy too because they were holding feasts for people to eat all the time.

Their brothers would come around, they would eat.

eat and be with each other.

Verse 4 says, his sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each one on his day.

And they would send word and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.

On his day, for the seven sons, could have meant either a birthday or a designated day.

Because in those times, if you look at Genesis chapter 40, the Bible says, Pharaoh.

celebrated birthday on his day.

So we're thinking that there's a probability that when they were celebrating these days, it was their birthday.

The brothers had a great relationship with their sisters.

They seemed to have a great bond.

They would call each other, feast, and have a good time.

This was a testimony to a good father, right?

Amen?

All right.

So even though Job had helped them succeed financially, he was more concerned about something deeper.

Verse 5 of chapter 1.

When the days of feasting had completed their cycle, Job would send word to them and consecrate them, getting up early in the morning and offering burnt offerings according to the number of them all.

For Job said, perhaps my sons have sinned and cursed God in their hearts.

During these times, the patriarchs acted as priests.

They would set up altars and offer sacrifices as seen in the lives of Abraham, Isaac, and And Jacob.

That is what they did.

So Job took measures to make sure that his children were right before God. That they were standing in favor with God.

He took their eternity very seriously.

He would send for his children and they would all come.

And remember we said they were older.

They were much older.

Right?

And they would all come.

None of them said no.

you This is the culture in the Middle East.

This is the culture in Africa, in Asian countries.

When your dad calls for you, you go, right?

Here in the West, we've allowed our children to disrespect us.

They need their space, you know?

You don't want to upset them.

If you call them to pray, oh, they don't want to come.

No.

And this starts young, my friends.

I was at, yeah, I don't know what I want to say where I was.

But I was at a coffee shop.

And I'm in there and I'm studying.

And this, I don't know.

I mean, there was probably a lot going on.

This young dad, he's with his phone.

He has two kids.

And they walk in there.

And the young boy is like four or five.

And he's grabbing all the coffee.

And he's just taking them off the shelves.

And the dad is chasing him around.

And I'm like, It's 10 minutes.

I'm like, get the kid to sit down, okay?

And stop grabbing the coffee.

You know, I'm just saying, like, this starts at a young, young age.

So Job would rise early in the morning, which shows his eagerness to reconcile his children to God.

It was also Abraham's practice.

So, Dad, question for you.

What's the first thing you do in the morning?

I don't know.

I'm just asking.

What's the first thing you do in the morning?

Right?

Is God the first thing on your mind or is it the news, work, money, and I don't know what else?

T.

Robinson says, God, the author of every day, ought to have the first hour of it.

The first hour of it.

As a father, the most important part of your day is your early morning meeting with God.

That's the most important part of your day.

Then Job would offer sacrifices on behalf of his children, knowing probably they had offended God as they parted.

He was acting as a priest, leading his family through worship.

He offered burnt offerings according to the number of his children.

Job, at this time, already knew that sacrifices would help atone for their sins.

That's very, very, very important.

Job was actively present in his family's life.

Very active.

Now I know that there are fathers like this here today.

I know that.

I know there are fathers like this who are doing their best, they pray with their kids, they fear God, and the priest is in their home.

Keep on doing that.

Amen.

Keep on doing that, fathers.

Okay.

Yeah, we can celebrate those fathers.

I sat next to a friend of mine yesterday at a party, at a graduation party, and he said he's starting to realize that the most important role he has as a dad is to show his son who God is.

That's the most important role.

So to children, listen, children, especially if you're a teenager or a young adult, if you have a father or a parent who are doing their best, they're not perfect.

They're not perfect.

Okay?

If they're doing their best, they invite you to church, they want to pray with you, they want to give you spiritual wisdom, my suggestion to you is you pay attention.

Because when you accept good spiritual leadership, there's a spiritual covering over you.

Amen?

There is a spiritual, you can say amen, it's cool, it's great, I'm good, right?

Job's children knew that.

And that's why when the dad called for them, they showed up.

They showed up.

So to all the children, young adults, if you have a good dad or mom who calls you for prayer or is trying their best to direct you spiritually, listen.

It's good for you.

Amen?

All right.

So there it is.

I said that.

Okay.

Let's contrast with King David.

King David was a great warrior and a king, but he struggled as a father.

David bungled a crisis in his family by failing to discern a threat to his daughter Tamar and by failing to discipline his sons Amnon and Absalom justly and effectively.

Okay, this is very important.

Amnon was David's eldest son.

He raped his half-sister who was Absalom's sister.

David did nothing about it.

Absalom gets mad and he overthrows his father as king.

And that led to his death.

Okay?

That is very, very, very, when you don't.

Deal with things like this, it becomes crazy.

So that's David.

Lot is another example.

Lot failed to protect his family when he took his daughters and his wife into Sodom, a city filled with profound wickedness, underestimating its wickedness.

They later slept with their father and had children with him.

Okay, this is very serious stuff.

But Job, no, Job was concerned about his children's spiritual walk.

Why?

The bedrock of Job's life was the fear of God.

Job had an out-of-this-world reverence for God.

Job understood who he was in relation to God.

He understood that very well.

Because of this, Job's interaction in prayer and worship with God was so intimate.

Look at Job.

Let's look at Job's self-knowledge.

For those who don't know Job.

If you've never read the story, he goes through some really, really difficult times, right?

His children are destroyed, his wealth is destroyed, his servants are killed, he's left with nothing.

And then on top of that, he gets attacked with disease on his skin, he gets sores.

He starts to suffer.

And then he gets very upset with God and says, God, he asks God, what are you doing?

I have been faithful to you.

Remember chapter 1, God says, have you seen my servant Job?

Remember that?

And Job, I'm like, I have done my best.

I know I'm a sinner, but I've done my best.

And God asks him a series of questions.

He says, where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?

Who shut in the seas with doors?

Have you commanded the morning since your days began?

Have you entered the storehouses of snow?

Each of these questions is designed to remind Job of the kind of things that only God can do.

Then Job replied to the Lord.

I know that you can do anything and no one can stop you.

You asked, who is this that questions my wisdom with such ignorance?

And Job says, it is I.

And I was talking about things I knew nothing about.

Things far too wonderful for me.

You said, listen, and I'll speak.

I have some questions for you and you must answer them.

I had only heard about you before, but now I've seen you with my eyes.

I take back everything I said.

Listen to this.

He says, and I sit in the dust and ashes to show my repentance.

Job realizes, oh, God and me.

Creator, creation.

Amen?

Job repents of not knowing God better as his creator and therefore his understanding of himself as a creature.

A right fear of God not only increases our knowledge of God, but also increases our knowledge of ourselves.

It brings greater self-awareness.

And for Job, the self-awareness drove him to God, not against him.

The foundation of Job's character was the fear of God.

How many of you have watched Hacksaw Ridge, the movie?

Who's watched that movie?

Oh, it's a great movie.

Not for kids, okay?

It's a great movie.

It's about a combat medic, Desmond Doss, who's played by...

Andrew Garfield, thus becomes a fast concessious objector to be awarded the Medal of Honor for his service in the Battle of Okinawa. And he was a Seventh-day Adventist, and he was estimated to have saved about a hundred men without a gun.

While I disagree with the theological reason why he did not carry a gun because it was a mis...

a bad translation with thou shalt not kill sixth commandment, thou shalt not kill versus thou shalt not murder, but the fact still stands Desmond Doss feared God and he said, if God says thou shalt not kill, I'm not going to carry a gun.

Right?

And he refused.

And in fact, he was ridiculed, made fun for it.

He was court-martialed.

And his men didn't want to fight with him.

They did not want to do anything with him.

However, he refused to back down.

And he saved a hundred men.

In fact, in the movie, at one point, the men don't want to go up.

They wait for him to finish his Sabbath.

And then they said, yep, we'll go up.

Because they knew with him they would be okay.

He feared God what he said.

If God said this, I am going to do it.

Amen?

How many of us fathers regard God as our supreme authority?

Do we give him exceptional reverence?

This will be reflected in your character.

Are you blameless and upright in your worship?

Men, sometimes I watch you and you're supposed to be leading your family in worship.

Where is, you know, it's hard to like clap, raise hands, sing, and your kids are watching you.

Okay?

Just saying.

Just saying.

I'm not saying force it.

I'm saying mean it.

Okay?

How you treat your wife?

You know?

Yep.

And Job, you know, it's so interesting.

When Job is going through all this, his wife comes to him and says, why did you curse God and die?

Right?

And he says this.

I don't think you should say this, but he says, you talk like a foolish woman.

Should we accept only good things from the hand of God and never anything bad?

So in all this, Job did nothing wrong.

He leads his wife, even in the midst of this, there's one comedian who says, why did Satan leave Job's wife alive?

It was interesting, but it was comedy.

But seriously.

God, the fear of God is going to be reflected in your character, your worship, how you treat your family, what you do at work, how you use your wealth, how you use your gifts.

Dads, the only way we can inspire the next generation to be amazing dads is if we fear God.

That is the only way that's going to happen.

Now, I want you to set that to the side, okay?

It's going to brew a little bit.

Set it to the side.

Now I want to talk to everybody, okay?

To every one of us.

Watch it online, everybody.

One of the things that separates Christianity from other religions is that Christians can have a personal relationship with God.

And this is true because our God is Trinitarian in nature.

We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, in Jesus Christ, his Son, and in the Holy Spirit who is the Lord and the give of life.

If Jesus is not the Son of God, we have no father.

If God is not our father, then we are not God's children.

We are not God's children.

Islam tells Christians in Surah 4.

O people of the book, do not go to the extremes regarding your faith.

Say nothing about Allah except the truth.

The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, was no more than a messenger of Allah and the fulfillment of his word through Mary and the spirit created by a command from him.

So believe in Allah and his messengers and do not say, Trinity.

Stop for your own good.

Allah is only one God.

Glory be to him.

He is far above having a son.

That is what Muslims think of Jesus.

In Islam, there's no concept of love.

You've heard Pastor Jeff say this quite a few times.

There's no personal relationship with God.

It is only a slave-master relationship.

But thanks be to God in Christianity that this is not the God we worship, or we would have no hope.

We would have no hope.

Ray Otling explains that in Christianity, God will always be holy and majestic.

In the New Testament, Jesus adds a strikingly clear emphasis on God as Father.

Both His Father and our Father.

So when the New Testament uses the term Father in relation to Jesus, and calls Jesus the begotten Son, it is for us to understand, listen to this, God's salvation plan in that God the son is sent by the father for the salvation of humanity.

Galatians 4 says this.

But when the fullness of time came, God sent his son born of a woman under the law.

So that he might redeem those under the law.

That we might receive adoption as what?

As what?

Sons and daughters, because you are...

Are we there?

Okay, cool.

Because you are sons, God has sent the spirit of his son into our hearts.

Crying what?

Abba, Father.

Oh, I can't hear you guys.

Crying what?

Father.

Therefore, you are no longer a slave but a son.

And if a son, then what?

An heir through God.

Amen?

You are an heir.

Why can we call God this intimate name Abba?

Because Jesus did in the Garden of Gethsemane while he was having a panic attack.

Jesus prayed, Abba Father, all things are possible for you.

Remove this cup from me yet.

Not what I want, not what I will, but what you will.

And since we are adopted, yes, we get the privilege of calling Father Abba.

Amen? Amen.

Abba is a term used within Jewish families that conveys both respect and familiarity.

So when Jesus uses it, it reflects to us his relationship with God.

It invites us, he invites us into this relationship through our adoption.

Only those adopted through Jesus are children of God.

There's a lie that goes around and says, oh, we're all God's children, everybody.

We are the world, we are the children.

No.

Nowhere in the Bible does it say we're all God's children.

Oh, nowhere.

Nowhere.

Listen to Jesus' rebuke in the Pharisees.

He says, for you are children of your father the devil.

Ooh.

This is John chapter 8.

He was a murderer from the beginning and he has always hated truth because there's no truth in him.

When he lies, it is consistent with his character for he is a liar and the father of lies.

So yes, in fact, in John chapter 1 verse 3 distinguishes between children of God and the children of the devil.

All humans are made in God's image, but only those, listen to this, only those who have received Christ by faith and have the Holy Spirit living in them are children of God.

God is their Father, whom we can call God and Abba.

That's it.

That's it.

So today if you're here and you're not a Christian, you have this opportunity to call Godfather today.

The greatest glory of God, therefore, is not that he is separate and far beyond us.

The greatest glory of God is that the one who is separate beyond us, who is high and lifted up, who created all things and needs nothing.

That glorious God also chose to become our Father, lovingly adopting us as His children forever.

That is why, together, we can pray.

Everyone, we're going to pray this together.

Everyone, one, two, three.

Our Father who is in heaven, holy is Your name.

Your kingdom come.

Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Amen.

So what do we do with all this?

Are you ready?

Are you taking notes?

I know it's a lot.

Okay, now let's bring it together.

Okay, now we're going to put it together.

Okay?

Here we go.

Fathers, fear God.

Fear God.

In order to make fatherhood inspirational, men, we need to get back to the fear of God.

Hearing what God says in his word and doing it.

Leading our families in worship.

Setting the example by being sacrificial like Jesus.

We need fathers who, because they understand their relationship with God, they realize he's the creator, he's omnipotent.

And we are the creature and we know that he has the best intentions for us.

And doing our best to.

honor him like Job honored him at home, at church, at work.

Fathers who live or who fear God, who live upright and blameless lives will make fatherhood attractive.

And little boys will say, I want to be a father one day.

I want to be a father one day.

That will in turn preserve our communities.

So number one, fathers fear God.

Number two, the fatherless can look to the father.

Christians who have had bad father figures, who have absent fathers, or have lost their dads, or who don't have any fathers, you've got to look up.

You got to look up.

Fatherhood gives you and I a secure identity.

You are first a child of God.

That is your identity.

You have access to God the Father through Jesus the Son and what he has done.

You have been adopted.

You are a father.

Amen.

And so even though you are hurting, you can become the best father, you can become the best mother.

As God the Father transforms you by the power of His Holy Spirit, you can do that.

There are two young adults in our church that I've got to know a little bit.

One I'll call Megan.

She left her job in Northern California to take care of her ailing father she didn't have a relationship with.

But she said, you know what, I hear he's sick, I'm going to come down.

And one day as she's taking back, she took him back and forced to hospital.

One day as they're coming back, the dad tells Megan that she owed him all the money he had paid in child support.

$5,000.

Five.

She's an adult now.

And he told her, no one will ever love or marry you.

Okay?

This is the dad.

Now, of course, we don't know what he's been through, but not an excuse, right?

Another example, I'm going to call this person Ruth.

Living on a mission trip on one of our campuses, I won't say which one, it was a Sunday, and her father said, I hope you get raped and never come back.

Okay?

This is hard to hear from a daughter.

And another team member heard it, and she had to go explain.

This is hard stuff.

Okay, I don't care what your kid has done.

Why would you say that to your kid?

What kind of father says that to a little girl, an adult?

It doesn't matter.

Good news.

Both these young adults are in community, and they're being loved on by the church, and they're getting to experience the father's love through his church, and they're having breakthrough in their lives.

It's amazing, right?

So what am I saying?

You might be mad at God for all the bad things that have happened in your life.

The bad father relationship, the bad family that you've had, the horrible family dynamics that you may have.

Maybe your father passed away too soon.

I don't know.

But these situations can blind you to the depth of God's love that he has for you.

There are wounds only God can heal.

Amen?

So today as a prayer team comes up, if you're like that, I want you to come up and receive prayer.

Don't stay in your seat.

But it starts with forgiveness to those who have offended you and releasing those things to God.

Healed Christians can have healthy families that produce good men who will be good fathers.

Amen?

Amen.

Thirdly, forgiveness for fathers who've blown it.

I know there might be dads here who feel like, man, I've blown things and I don't feel like I've done a great job.

I'm not like Job.

Job is the standard and I've failed.

Looking at Job's life, I am a mess.

I haven't done a good job.

Maybe the doors of your family have been shut and maybe you've repented.

And you've asked for grace and forgiveness.

But things are still tough.

Listen, church.

There is love in the presence of the Father.

He has adopted you too.

Amen.

He has adopted you.

David, King David, in all his messes, he was called by God a man after God's own heart.

In spite of all that he had done.

Wow.

There is hope.

Amen.

Dad, there is hope.

Don't give up.

Amen.

There's a song that I heard this week.

Literally like two days ago.

Fantastic.

It's called Steal by Jonathan McReynolds.

Fantastic.

Key changes.

It was awesome.

But.

Listen to these lyrics as I end.

Listen to this.

Never could I imagine a father so holy, patient, and kind would choose to stay right beside me when he knows the shadows that come with the light.

And he sees all the things I don't want to be seen and he hears every whisper as if they were screams.

And he still, and he still loves me.

Now, could you imagine someone as broken and as wretched as me could be welcomed into his family?

Given a hope and a destiny.

Oh, and he sees where I am.

And he knows where I've been.

And he knows the whole story from beginning to end.

And he still.

And he still loves me.

See, he sees every flaw and every mistake.

And there's nothing I can do to push him away.

Amazing.

And he still, and he still, and he still, and he still, he still loves me.

Hey, he's a faithful father.

Our provider, he still, he still loves me.

Now I want to ask you to say this after me.

And it says, Abba, Father, Jesus, Jireh, he still, he still.

He still loves me.

Now you stand to your feet.

Everyone stand to your feet.

We're going to say this together.

We're going to say this together.

Right?

Say it with me.

Abba.

Father.

Jesus.

Jireh.

He still.

He still.

He still.

Loves me.

One more time.

Abba.

Father.

Jesus.

Jireh.

He still.

He still, He still, He still, He still, He still, Together He still loves me.

Come on give God a shout of praise.
