behold the Virgin shall be with child

and bear a son and they shall call his

name Immanuel we just translated God

with us Eamon in with us is God

hallelujah now in the in the 90s I

remember one time I was reading this

verse and I was thinking yeah what is it

you know I always hear people say God

God be with you go with God

vaya con Dios you know God be with you

God be with you

but what how does that how does that

bless me how does that help me

God is with me so in the 90s and this is

the premise for my book unmerited favor

all right the story of Joseph was what

God brought to me

I remember reading this and what does it

mean God is with me and the Lord brought

the story of Joseph to me and that

became the premise for the book

unmerited favor okay look at Genesis 39

Joseph was brought down he was sold by

his brothers and brought down to Egypt

and Potiphar an officer of Pharaoh

captain of the guard an Egyptian bought

him of the hands of the Ishmaelites who

had brought him down there next and the

Lord was with Joseph the Lord was with

Joseph the Lord was with Joseph so he

was so how are they sold in those days I

found out that they were sold all right

naked completely naked because no no

householder all right anyone want to buy

a slave they don’t want to see any

disease or any trace so they are the

strip the poor slave and then the

bidding starts the bidding starts that’s

how Joseph was sold to Potiphar by some

amazing just after he says he was sold

the Bible says the Lord was with Joseph

so he didn’t have a savings account

he had no investments he had no one with

him he had no supporters he had no

family he had no wife he had no children

he had nothing naked no clothes on his

back no bowtie

nothing and the Lord was with Joseph and

watch this and he was a prosperous man

this is God’s definition of prosperity

if the Lord is with you emanuelle

you are prosperous I said the Lord is

with you in man Noel you are prosperous

so far the Jewish year when they heard

the prophecy of Isaiah being fulfilled

right now at least in this case was Mary

when she heard that it was a brought

great joy to her because they all knew

what it means for God to be with you

when God is with you you before God

blesses the things in your life and your

family and your possessions you are a

prosperous man the person becomes

prosperous for you you are a prosperous

man amen

some people think money satisfies money

doesn’t satisfy all right some people

think if they have looks you’ll be happy

no I know from experience yeah all right

again I’m just teasing I’m just teasing

see whether you’re awake or not

all right pastor Henry told me pastor

Henry told me about his name is young

sweet so he’s told me that bings young

sweet doesn’t make you happy I was young

sweet even when I was born but I wasn’t

happy until I met Jesus which

conversation never happened and the Lord

was with Joseph and he so the first of

all the area effect the first area that

is affected is that it got us with you

you got effect God is more concerned

about you before the blessings of

Deuteronomy 28 comes on you this year

2014 all right

god bless us you the very first blessing

of determing 28 is that God set you on

high and that’s where we are today all

right we are set on high at the Father’s

right hand in Christ Jesus and now all

the blessings come on us and overtake us

blessed wherever we are we are blessed

whether in city or in the countryside

does it it’s location location location

God is not the is you you you if my

blessing is on you you go to a location

location is blessed you go to a city

city is blessed you go to a country

country is blessed amen amen I believe

that I believe that if I’m here and

seeing up

singing upwards blessed I believe if I

mean us us is blessed I believe that I

really believe that I believe that

wherever you go all right

the place is blessed I’ve always said

our ladies want into a boutique the

boutique is blessed

all right so in other words this Jesus

with us means he’s not reckoning our

sins to us because it is reckoning our

sins to us he cannot be with us because

God is a holy God tries holy God the

first time one of the first times rather

that Peter met Jesus the first few times

all right Peter was was trying to catch

fish all night his profession being a

fisherman Jesus passed by and says let

down your nets for a catch all right he

says you know all the excuses I work all

night and I caught nothing in order but

because you say so I’ll let down one net

Jesus let down the nets Jesus expect

more all right to fill his boat you say

I let down the net and then the Bible

says he caught so much fish the net

break

no wonder and then finally when they got

the fish into the boat the boat began to

sink he had to call for help from his

partners his partners were the sons of

Zebedee James and John and then he

realized that the one that’s with him in

his boat was the Messiah that tries holy

God and what do you say depart from me

I’m a sinful man Jesus says don’t be

afraid don’t be afraid of what don’t be

afraid of fishes they are jumping around

this is a fisherman don’t be afraid of

what a storm there’s no storm but don’t

be afraid of what don’t be afraid your

sin was separate you from me

fear not from now on you will catch men

in other words Emanuel means he’s with

us he’ll walk with you there were

children you go to school all right when

school reopens don’t be sad all right

the Lord is with you and many of them

love with me what does that mean

so today tell them the meaning take down

notes the Lord is with you means even

when you are wrong when you do wrong he

will not leave you in manual he’s with

you to show himself a hero to show

himself strong another good man and then

goes on to say about Joseph and he was

in the house of his master the Egyptian

so he wasn’t the sea the sea oh all

right he wasn’t the guy running things

at first he was just a slave and he was

in the house he was a prosperous man

but he wasn’t the house of his master

the Egyptian you know we always think

that unless I’m a CEO all right unless

I’m the senior pastor unless I’m the

president

then I’m not successful well the true

success are people all right not

associating via their esteem and they

are worth with their job

but tying their worth in Christ can have

a good ear man the blessing is on you D

secure okay if your boss sex you he’s

sucking the blessing if your girlfriend

leaves you or your boyfriend leaves you

right they’re leaving a great blessing

they are right if you leave me now you

take away the biggest part of me amen is

a big part the blessing I just did not

even that someone anymore and it’s

master saw that the Lord was with him

stop there for a while this master saw

he imagined people the world looking at

you and this is one thing to see that

you’re prosperous it’s not a thing to

see that the Lord is with you

they can see I mean this is not

spiritual I see oh this is this is this

is Orchard Road Las Vegas eyeballs all

right looking at you in the natural and

can see that the Lord is with you number

one and nothing he saw and means he also

saw that the Lord made all that he did

to prosper in his hand the Lord made all

that he did to prosper in his hand this

Lord has been born this Lord when he was

born the same message was given this is

the Lord that will be with you I mean so

when you walk on earth everything he

touched I love it I just love it

you know there about the Midas touch

this guy was so greedy this King he says

that and all his going silver doesn’t

satisfy him so he says you know just

just give me the power he told a fairy

Rajini I don’t know what is it

all right anyway whatever a touch would

tend to go and he touch up in touch his

feel that we can go

you know all this deco here becomes a

really goal

alright then finally his child the one

he loved the most his little daughter

ran to him he touched her and she became

go your no sorry right so that’s not

good blessing a good blessing is that

whatever you touch God prospers so that

doesn’t mean money people think I

prosper a prosperous man is a man who

has a lot of money in the bank alright

Ike relates to his name now he was a

prosperous man and he was in his

master’s house as a slave but he was a

prosperous man why the reasons even not

because he was handsome not because he

was young not because he was diligent

nothing into it Joseph the Lord was with

Joseph
