I got like 600 listeners already all over the world . It's pretty cool . I also started working at Crescent Automotive this week . I've been there one week and I sold three cars .

Speaker 1 0:40

But that's a whole story and that's in the podcast and if you like good stories , you need to listen to that podcast , because I retired back in 21 from 27 years in the car business . I was a finance director , I was a GM , I worked for Gerald Jones , I worked for Milton Rubin all them big boys . I even worked for Dick Smith in Columbia and I retired to play music after my kids . My kids are all in their late 20s and they good , so I made sure they good before I retired . I just turned 50 this year and man the Lord is good because I've been good for four years playing music . But this year , with the hurricane and a bunch of stuff happening , I ain't getting no gigs so I had to go back to work .

Speaker 1 1:32

But the story is Crescent Automotive . They're owned by some amazing people who are steadfast in their faith , they take care of their customers and they have a great reputation . And they're in Aiken , south Carolina . So that's a thing . That's a good thing . I passed 30 dealerships driving from Evans to Aiken , because these guys know how to do it right . It's one price . It just is what it is . All the cars are really nice . They take care of you . After the sale , everybody gets two keys , unlike most dealerships . It's just a good thing . I just you got to believe and you got to believe . You got to walk by faith , and this is a song , right about that .

Speaker 2 2:52

Well , I believe you when you sing your hand will guide my every way . Well , I receive the words you sing Every moment of every day , and I will walk by faith , even when I cannot see . And because this broken road Is your will for me , help me rid my endless fears . You've been so faithful for all of my years . Let warm breath remain . Your grace covers all that I do . Yeah , and I will walk by faith , even when I cannot see you . And because this is a broken road , praise your will . Oh man , I'm broken and I still see your face when you spoke .

Speaker 1 6:33

Hey guys , it's Sunday , march 2nd . This is B-Rob and this is the Food for Thought podcast . Hope y'all are doing great today . I just want to give you some words of wisdom and some scripture and let's glorify God today . That what you heard earlier was a little testimony of yesterday . I played at the Three Star Orchard in Johnston , south Carolina , and just thought it was a great , great day , time and great energy and everything was amazing yesterday .

Speaker 1 7:12

God is so good . Just want to say God's telling you today don't drag the old into the new , because we got a fresh month . He is going to be with us , lighting our way Anything you've been needing . Watch for his hand , not yours , his hand , not yours . It's God's timing , not mine . God's will , not ours . God's plan , not ours . And it's God's glory , it's not ours . That makes total , total sense . Every sunrise , every day , we grow stronger . A new day means that God is not finished . A new day means that God chooses for us to keep going . So make sure you thank God for allowing you to wake up today . It's a beautiful day . It's a little colder today . Yesterday was very beautiful .

Speaker 1 8:21

Just know that your story is still unfolding . He's going to make it beautiful , so embrace it , live it , love it . He's going to make it beautiful . So embrace it , live it , love it . He's going to make it happen for you . Step into today with expectation . Don't drag yesterday's baggage with you . He's doing a new thing in your life . It starts right now . So I want you to say this with me Thank you , lord . That marches the month of breakthroughs . My month is going to overflow my month of joy . He's got so many surprises lined up for you , things you don't see coming , but I know that he's been planning them all along just for you , and I know that he's been planning them all along just for you and I . That dry spell , that dark place it's over . There's always a beautiful valley after the fall . That dream you've been holding on , it's going to wake up this month .

Speaker 1 9:25

Zechariah 4 , verse 6 says Not by might , not by power , but my spirit saith the Lord . God's basically saying to trust him . What's about to happen won't have anything to do with your power , your works or your effort or your effort . It will be by God's power , god's favor and God's purpose alone that you're about to receive a blessing that is so good , so amazing , so good , so amazing . Guys , it's been a great , great February . The end of February was amazing .

Speaker 1 10:13

We just got to keep that energy rolling into March . We have to keep that energy rolling into March . Just want you to know God's got some awesome plans for you . Your finances , your growth , your potential . They're going to explode in March Because God is the God of abundance and I'm telling you the truth . It's all throughout the Bible . It's all throughout the Bible .

Speaker 1 10:44

So overflow with his blessings . Give everything you do to him . Do it in the name of Jesus Christ . I promise you . I promise you things will happen . Positive things . Positive things will happen to you in your life .

Speaker 1 11:05

It's all energy . If you walk around being negative all the time , then you're going to get that energy back . So never send out energy that you don't want back in return . Keep that in mind . Never send out energy that you don't want back in return . It's no different than going up and slapping somebody in the face . What do you think is going to happen ? Or give them a hug . That's what you should do . Give them a hug .

Speaker 1 11:36

God says to even pray for your enemies . How big is a God that says to pray for your enemies ? I mean , he's a God of love . I've been telling you that you know this . Galatians , chapter six , verse nine . So let's not get tired of doing what is good At just the right time . We will reap the harvest of blessings if we don't give up . Guys , you're not here by accident . This is your confirmation . You got to keep going to make it , no matter what it looks like right now . God is going to reward your faithfulness . So hold on , be strong and don't give up . You're in line for your next miracle . You're in line for your next miracle .

Speaker 1 12:31

Like I said , it's a brand new month Breakthroughs . I'm excited for what's coming , guys . I really am . I declare this month , right now , overflowing with blessings . My finances are going to multiply in Jesus' name . My growth is going to soar in Jesus' name . My potential is unleashed in Jesus name in a huge way , and nobody can touch that .

Speaker 1 12:55

Open doors . Open doors that no one can shut . He is going to open doors that no one can shut . He's going to silence every obstacle . He's going to fill you with strength . He's going to fill you with joy .

Speaker 1 13:15

No-transcript . All you have to do is say Lord , lead me , lift me and let this month be the testimony of your goodness . That's an amazing thing . It's an amazing thing , amen , and it's in Jesus' name . Amen . Man , what a day . I hope everything's been good for you guys . I really , really , really , really do .

Speaker 1 13:48

I just want to say , um , the definition of insanity is to do the same thing over and over and expect a different result . So why not change for the better ? Why not do something that you , you haven't done ? Let's not ponder in the negativity today Only positive things . Even if you stubbed your toe , you did it for a reason . You might need to move . Whatever you stubbed your toe on , god's telling you something , so listen . God's telling you something , so listen . We all get down in the dumps . We all do . It's not an easy thing . It really is not .

Speaker 1 14:34

Joshua , chapter 1 , verse 9 . Have I not commanded you Be strong and courageous , do not be afraid . Do not be afraid , do not be discouraged , for the Lord , your God , will be with you wherever you go . Says it right there . Says it right there . Have I not commanded you Be strong and courageous , do not be afraid , do not be discouraged , for the Lord , your God , is with you wherever you go . He sees everything . You can't hide . You can run for a long time , but sooner or later God will cut you down . That's Johnny Cash's words and they are 100% real . Guys , I just want to say I love you . God bless you . My name is B-Rob .
