It's possible to walk aware of the presence of God 24-7. You don't have to wait to come to a revival meeting or a special church service to feel the nearness of God. You can carry the presence of the Holy Spirit in such a way that you're aware of that presence 24-7. And in fact, as we pray later, there will be a manifestation of the Holy Spirit's presence. I believe that by the time this teaching is done, the Holy Spirit will have imparted to you the revelation that will cause you to live in this 24-7 awareness. If you want that, say, show me your glory. You're watching online, live or on the replay. Type that in the comment section. Show me your glory. Let that be your prayer. I believe that the presence and power of the Holy Spirit can impact your life from even this distance right through that camera. And at the end of this video, I'm going to pray with you. I'm going to pray that the manifested presence of the Holy Spirit would envelop you and that you would sense him near. Fear and confusion and depression and all of those things that are manifested through the flesh do not have to be your constant reality. The life of the believer is one of victory, one of power, one of God's presence. And to walk in that awareness is to walk in that victory. I'm not saying that you'll never have a trial. I'm not saying that you'll never have trouble that comes your way. What I am saying is that even in the midst of those trials, you will sense the nearness of the Holy Spirit. I've watched as parents have lost children but kept their peace and joy and love. I've watched as families face tragedies but the presence of the Holy Spirit was still apparent on their home to where when you walked into their house you could sense the presence of the Holy Ghost. I remember there was a woman in our church who would often take me to different revival meetings. Her and her husband would drive me to revival meetings in church services and they would show me different preachers and speakers and God really used them to help develop some of the early beliefs that I had that would help me to walk in greater depths of glory. And I remember one time that I was just under this heavy attack of guilt and shame and I was just wearing it on me and I felt like this heaviness that was going everywhere with me. I didn't sense the nearness of God and this is where most Christians panic. I don't sense your presence. Why aren't you near me? Did I do something wrong? Did I make a mistake? Am I forever banished? Did you take your Holy Spirit from me? And so I'm sensing all of these emotions that are negative and that are of the flesh and I'll never forget that I walked out of my apartment down the stairs. I got into their car and the moment I sat in their car that heaviness lifted. And I began to sense just this peace, this joy, this overflowing love that actually in that moment I was overwhelmed by and all they were doing was just being themselves. I didn't walk in the car and they weren't singing Hallelujah. I didn't get into their car and they turned around and started speaking in King James to me. They weren't being dramatic. They weren't trying to sound or act spiritual. It was just a simple, hey, how you doing? And the presence of the Holy Spirit was sensed in that moment. This is what my grandparents' house is like. My grandparents live in a tiny apartment in Southern California, but you walk into their apartment and you just sense this great peace, this beauty, this sweetness of the Lord there. And I'll sit sometimes. I was just with my grandmother, I believe a month ago, visiting her and she just began to talk about the Lord. And as she's talking about him, she just starts crying. Every time she talks about him, she just starts crying. Not a performance, like real tears.  And she always says, I'm sorry, I just every time I think about how wonderful he is, I can't help it and she just begins to cry. Not pretending to be spiritual, actually just loving Jesus. I don't know about you, but I want to be that person that carries the presence of God in such a way that when people come around me, they just instantly are put at peace. The moment they pick up the phone to call you and you say hello, demons begin to flee. At the moment you answer the phone and say hello, that that harassment of the enemy just stops. And that there's this joy permeating from you. There's this love permeating from you that people have their bondages broken before you could even pray for them. To where they walk up to you and they say, I wanted to talk to you about something, but never mind. The moment you greet them, the moment you hug them, the moment you shake their hand that there's just this beauty of the Lord that becomes overwhelming to them, that cannot happen until you understand walking in the presence of God in this way, that we're going to look at in Scripture. Until you become aware of the presence of God around you, his power will not flow through you. And so, as I said, you can walk into 24-7 awareness of his presence. And again, we are going to pray at the end of this, and you will sense in the spirit the presence of God. Now it's here that I have to tell you that there is a difference between a sense of God's presence and feelings. There are times and there are places where you will sense that manifested presence. And then there are times where you'll sense your emotions overwhelmed by his presence, and that's a good thing. I don't know why so many people speak so negatively about God's presence touching them in their emotions. People say, do you want to move of God, or do you just want to fill them in your emotions? Well, actually, if God is truly moving, then at some point I'm going to fill it in my emotions. Remember this, God does nothing without purpose. Every aspect of your being is made to respond to God. Every aspect of your being is made to respond to God. In 1 Thessalonians 5-23 we see a reference to the body, the soul, and the spirit. God gave you emotions, and your emotions can respond to God. A move of God will often produce a moving of your emotions. But a moving of your emotions can never produce a move of God. Emotions cannot cause God to move, but when God moves that can cause you to sense him in your emotions. And we experience this sometimes, and it's good to experience this in times of prayer. In times of worship. In times of fellowship. In times when we're at the altar and believing God with one another for something great. There are emotions that are stirred, and that's a good thing. So long as you don't live by what you feel in your emotions, because the reality is, though God can affect and touch your emotions, you will not always feel God in your emotions. God gave us intellect. I don't like this idea that we ought to toss out rational thinking, and intellect, and logic. In the beginning was the word, the logos, logic. The foundation of all truth. There's nothing that God does that's illogical. That's a misconception. They say, well God does miracles. Miracles are not illogical. It logically follows that if God exists, miracles happen. So there's nothing logically inconsistent with anything that God does. It may go against our nature. It may go against the laws of physics. It may go against what we think is right, but God does not violate logic. Why? Because he is the source of truth. He is the foundation of logic and reason. So this idea that we can't experience the touch of the spirit on our logic is just nonsense. This is why I believe that people like Stephen the martyr would preach in such a way that their words would pierce the hearts of the listener. Where Paul the apostle would reason with people trying to convince them of the gospel. Look at how many times Jesus would go through the scripture. I always love seeing a good debate between Jesus and the Pharisees in the gospels. You guys are debating God. Do you not see that? And you just look at how he could just speak in such a way that the Pharisees were confounded. Why? Because God touches the intellect. Revelation is logic set on fire by the Holy Ghost. I believe in rational thinking. I believe in logical approaches. Why? Because God gave us the gift of logic. Anyone tells you to throw out your logic, they don't understand how the spirit can breathe upon that logic. And so God touches our emotions. Often the people who are emotional have issue with thinking that God moves through logic. And people who are logical have issue thinking that God moves through emotion, but he moves through both. Every thing that God has given us is made to respond to him. He's given us a body. Sometimes you will fill him in your emotions. Sometimes there will be this fire. This happens sometimes when I study the word. I'll take a topic and usually a topic arises because people are asking me questions on a topic. And they need help understanding. And I'm saying, Lord, I don't have the wisdom. I need you to help me give this to them in such a way that they can receive it. And then I'll study, study, study, study, and the Holy Spirit will take all of that which I've studied and give it to me in one, two, three, four, even the order of how to teach it to make it simpler. He'll give me that. There's been times when I've woken up at three o'clock in the morning with the whole outline in my head from the Holy Spirit, because I'll go to bed praying in tongues. And then I'll wake up and suddenly I have the outline. I have to write it down real quick. And then I wake up the next morning to look at it again and go, oh my goodness, where did this come from? It came from the Holy Ghost. So he touches your emotions. He touches your intellect. He moves in ways that you can sense sometimes on your physical body. That is what we call the manifestation of power, the tangible touch of God's presence and power. Now, this is the experience of God. But the only one that will remain consistent is the sense of Him in your spirit. There are seasons where you will not understand what God is doing, and therefore you don't sense Him on your intellect. There are seasons when you will not feel the support emotionally from the Holy Spirit that you think you need, and that is to not sense Him in your emotions. There are times, in fact, most of the time you will not feel His physical touch of power manifested tangibly on your body. But I'm not talking about a sense in intellect, emotion, or in the body. How do you explain sight to a man born blind? How do you explain hearing to a man born deaf? It is an entirely different sense that they have no comprehension of and no reference for. There is no way to adequately communicate the reality of sight through description alone. There is no way to adequately describe the sensation, the sense of hearing. Now, if a baby is born healthy, you do not have to teach the baby to see. The baby comes out seeing. If the baby is born healthy, you do not have to teach the baby to hear the baby's born hearing. Though they are born seeing, they have to learn to observe. Though they are born hearing, they have to learn to listen. In the same way, every single one of us, when we were born again, were born again with the sense of God's presence. It's not something that can merely be described in emotions, though we've covered the fact that He can touch you in your emotions. It's not something that's always physically felt, and it's not always something that's understood in the intellect. But this spirit sense can be yours continually, and out of this sense in the spirit is produced love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness. It flows out of that awareness in the spirit. Now, we have to understand God's presence in order to truly grasp what the Holy Spirit communicates concerning the dynamics of God's presence through the word. First, for those of you taking notes, there is the omnipresence of God. Listen to this, Psalm 139-12. I can never escape from your spirit. I can never get away from your presence. If I go up to heaven, you are there. If I go down to the grave, you are there. If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the farthest oceans, even there your hand will guide me and your strength will support me. I could ask the darkness. I love this right here. I could ask the darkness to hide me and the light around me to become night, but even in the darkness I cannot hide from you. To you, the night shines as bright as day. Darkness and light are the same to you. Now, before you go making any doctrines on that, he's talking about literal physical darkness and light. Not good and evil. Good and evil are different. Next we see, so the omnipresence, I should say first, the omnipresence of God is what I call the everywhereness of God. It's the mind of God. He's aware of everything at all times. Not a single thing outside of his awareness. And then second, after the omnipresence of God, we see the Scripture describing the indwelling presence of God. First Corinthians 6.19 says, don't you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself. First John 4.4, little children, you are of God and you have overcome them for. He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. So this is the indwelling presence of God. What many Christians imagine is that if they're performing well in their pursuit of holiness, that God comes closer. And that when they make a mistake, he takes a step back further. That is a performance-based view of his presence. His presence is not based on your performance. His presence is based on Christ's sacrifice, and he said it is finished. So the presence of God dwells with the believer, even the struggling believer. Because otherwise, if he abandoned you, you would just go full-blown into sin, and he doesn't want that.  That's the indwelling presence. Now, the omnipresence of God is something we're aware of intellectually. We understand the concept of him being present, but not necessarily something that we feel. The indwelling presence of God is something that the Scripture teaches that does not leave the believer. You have that indwelling presence of God. Omnipresence of God. Indwelling presence of God. Number three, manifested presence of God. In Acts chapter 1 verse 8, the Bible says, But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost will what come upon you? Weren't these men already filled with the Holy Ghost? John 2022, receive ye the Holy Ghost. That's the power and the presence upon you. The presence abides in you. That's the work of your salvation. The power upon you, that's the work of ministry. And so the omnipresence of God, watch this now. The omnipresence of God is his awareness of everything. The manifested presence of God is your awareness of him. Now in Mark chapter 5 verses 25 through 30, we see a very famous narrative here where a woman suffering with an issue of blood touches the hem of Jesus' garment and suddenly the power of God moves through him and touches her. And she's healed. Now the Bible tells us in verse 30, Jesus realized at once that healing power had gone out from him. He felt that rush. The Bible describes this in the Greek as dunamis power. It was the sense of that power or the very same that was present when they lowered the men who had friends, the men who had friends who lowered him to the roof. The Bible in that narrative tells us that the power was present to heal. Now wait a minute, wasn't Jesus everywhere working miracles, walking from city to city? Wasn't he given that ability? Didn't he possess that? And him being God, the ability to just lay hands on the sick and see them recover? Yes, but then in that particular portion of Scripture it was describing that manifested presence and the power was present to heal. King David understood this. Watch what he writes, keeping this in mind. Omnipresence of God, indwelling presence of God, manifested presence of God. Watch this now. Look at what he writes in Psalm 5111. This is powerful. He says two things. Cast me not away from thy presence and take not thy Holy Spirit from me. David understood the various expressions of the presence of God. Now he's the very saying who wrote in Psalm 139.7 that there's nowhere he can escape from God's presence. So why would David who wrote, I can't escape from your presence say, cast me not away from thy presence? Because he understood the various dynamics in how God's presence is manifested. Now it's at this point I need to talk to you real briefly. We'll kind of do a review of something I taught a few weeks ago. Because I think it's important to establish here the difference between scheduled and spontaneous prayer. And then I'm going to show you how to walk. I'm going to give you direct keys in just a moment.  Like on the car ride home to where you're going to get in your car and you're going to be aware of his presence in the car. How many want that?  I'm going to show you how to do this. But we have to establish foundation first. First we have to know and understand the dynamics of why this even works. So there are two types of prayer. Categorically speaking that I've seen in Scripture. Scheduled and then spontaneous. Scheduled prayer is the carving out of your time. Matthew 6-6 go away privately. Spontaneous prayer is that communion with God all throughout the day. When asked about how many hours she spent in prayer, Ms. Coleman didn't give a direct response because she told the people that she didn't want them to think that it was her dedication to a schedule of prayer that produced the power. It was just this awareness of his presence. Oral Roberts once remarked about her as he watched her pray. He said, watching her pray, I didn't know where she ended and the Holy Spirit began. They were just one communing with each other. Her staff would see her before the Crusades. Many of you have seen those on YouTube. For the Crusades, she would be just pacing back and forth, tossing her hands about, red in the face with tears coming down her cheeks and just talking with the Holy Spirit.  So, scheduled and spontaneous. Scheduled is intentional. Spontaneous is unceasing. Spontaneous prayer is continual prayer 24-7, something you do in the car, at work, at school. It's about your awareness of him. Intentional prayer is a time and a place it's about atmosphere. People don't understand the need for atmosphere moves of God. Atmosphere isn't to get God to move. Atmosphere is to get you out of distraction. It's not like God's looking down and he sees a meaning. Well, I couldn't move because somebody got up out of their seat and walked around. No, he's more powerful than that. But it's our ability to focus on what God is doing that's disrupted when someone just stands up in the middle of a service and walks out. I'm not talking about anyone here right now. I'm just giving it as an example. Unceasing prayer is for any atmosphere. Intentional prayer is for a certain atmosphere. The undisciplined struggle with intentional prayer. The structured have trouble with unceasing prayer. The undisciplined think intentional prayer is unnecessary or even religious. The structured think unceasing prayer is strange. Unceasing prayer, spontaneous. Intentional prayer, scheduled. Both are necessary elements of true prayer. Unceasing prayer, that ability to commune with God continually, that produces longevity in your walk with God. Scheduled prayer is what produces depth. So in my unceasing prayer, I have faithfulness. I'm continually talking with God and that keeps me right where I need to be. Level headed, spiritual, focused on God. And so I can live 20, 30, 40 years off of a lifestyle of just praying, praying, praying continually. But if I want to really deepen my knowledge of His presence, if I want to really deepen and strengthen or intensify the potency of the power upon my life, that comes through intentional prayer. Intentional prayer produces depth. Unceasing prayer produces longevity. Now that we covered those, I want to now focus in on talking to you about this spontaneous type of prayer, which is the awareness, the 24-7 awareness of God's presence. So please don't hear what I'm not saying. I am not saying that you don't need to schedule focused times of prayer. You absolutely must do that. People will tell you, you know, I don't need a prayer room to experience God. True, but you do need a prayer room to remove distraction. I don't need to go to church to talk to God. That's true, but you do need to go to church to be accountable and in relationship with others. How am I supposed to show love to one another if I'm never around one another? How am I supposed to demonstrate and use my spiritual gifts, 1 Corinthians 12-7, to help others if I'm never with others? Iron sharpens iron, the Bible says. So now we focus in here. Scheduled spontaneous, focusing on spontaneous now. Number one, and this is a very practical discipline. You want to experience God in a 24-7 way. The sense, remember, we're not talking about emotions. We're not talking about feeling Him on your physical body. We're not talking about necessarily an intellectual idea of, oh, I know. I know God is with me. No, no, no. I'm talking about sensing Him in your spirit, which you'll begin. You won't know it until you start experiencing it. Because I'll explain that maybe a little bit later if it's needed. The practice of the presence of the Holy Spirit, number one begins with that awareness. What does that mean awareness? It means to purpose in your heart and your mind that you're going to put God on your mind as often as you possibly can in as many circumstances as you possibly can for as long as you can. Here's how it might look in practice. You say, today, I want to think about God or the things of God or the nature of God or His word for at least intervals of once every hour. I want to have a thought about God once every hour, and I want to meditate on Him maybe for five minutes. That's a challenge right there if you've never done this before. The scripture says in Colossians 3, 23-24, and whatsoever you do, do it heartily as unto the Lord and not unto men. Knowing that the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance, for ye serve the Lord Christ. Now, of course there the scripture is talking about working as unto the Lord, but the principle has universal application and that principle is this idea of doing everything with God in mind. And so you begin that day. I'm going to think about God every hour. I'm going to try at least once an hour. Even if you have to set a reminder on your phone with simple, hey Siri, remind me every hour that God is good. God is good today, 9 p.m. and hourly. That is funny. And so you continually practice this once an hour for five minutes. And you think this is kind of, I mean it's almost a little too practical, like that's too specific, I know. But this is the way to practice the principle. Remember in scripture there are principles and then in life application there are practices. So the principle is mindfulness of God. That's biblically established. The practice is to make the discipline of putting them in your thoughts as often you can. The Bible talks often about choosing your thoughts. Think on these things. And so it begins with that hourly. And then something begins to happen as you begin to increase the frequency of these thoughts and the length of these thoughts. You begin to notice that not only do you have to not be removed from the situation in order to think about God. You begin to experience the presence of God moving through everyday life. Now here's something that is not often talked about. Do you know that when I'm driving home after filming and maybe there's a sunset, I can enjoy the presence of God through that sunset. Now this is not some new age nonsense where God is everywhere. He is everything. No, there's one God. He sits on a throne in heaven. Jesus at his right hand in the presence of the Holy Spirit is the omnipresent expression of who he is. But I can think of God in that sunset and the scripture that talks of the heavens declaring the glory of God. Wow. Or that I can sit with my daughter doing a puzzle. And while that to the average person might have nothing to do with God, at least in their mind. I'm thinking of the scripture that says every good and perfect gift comes from above. I can find him in the rebuke of a good friend who will get in my face because the Lord disciplines those whom he loves. I give thanks to him when I'm fellowshiping with friends and family on a date night with my wife. He who finds a wife finds a good thing. That's a gift from God. Not saying that the material is God. That would be heresy. That would be new ageism. That's nonsense. But to allow everything to remind you of something regarding his goodness. And now you don't feel guilt for going to the park with your children instead of locking yourself in the room for three hours and praying. So God's not saying, well you're not just scheduling prayer. Remember I said you should schedule prayer. So don't hear what I'm not saying. You should schedule prayer. But God's not angry with you because you're not on your face listening to worship music at home. He's saying let me enjoy this with you too. And there's a peace in that. There's a stability that comes. I don't need to fill him in my emotions. I don't need to sense him on my body. I don't always need to understand what he's doing. But in this moment I'm just aware in my spirit of his nearness. And you'll notice when you begin to do this that if you have like an anxious nature you just begin to walk in peace. If you're suffering with confusion you become grounded. If there was depression weighing on you there's just this joy that just starts to bubble over.  This is found in that awareness. Just the practice of the presence of the Holy Spirit to think about him and involve him in everything. Now the more often that you do this, here's what's so amazing. The more often that you allow the Lord to be on your mind and in what you're doing, the more often now you begin to experience touches of his manifested presence. I'm telling you something. You want more encounters with God I'm giving you the key. When I say encounters I'm talking about when your emotions and when your body and when your mind responds to his presence. You want more of that. I'm showing you how. It's the simplicity of awareness of the presence of God. You walk in that I'm telling you there are times when I'll be getting ready for a service or just driving home or sitting with my daughter or my wife and suddenly I'll just sense physically the touch of the power of the Holy Ghost on me. Just a quick say almost like the Holy Spirit just kissed me on the top of the head just and then up. Just a little reminder, hey I'm here. Why? Because it's walking in that awareness, the awareness, the awareness of his presence. So first it's awareness. How many are going to go practice this when you get home? You're going to start practicing it right now? Number two, reverence. This is to act with him in mind. Ephesians 4.30 says, When I was single, I didn't have anyone I would drive with. When I was driving by myself, I admit I probably didn't necessarily always keep it within the speed limit. I admit that I probably maybe didn't come to complete stops at stop signs. I didn't just go right through them but you know back in California we have this thing called the California Roll and it's just kind of like you inch over you look nobody's coming. Okay you go. Somebody said amen to that. But you know my quick takeoffs and my acceleration and my weaving in and out of traffic sometimes, sometimes not all the time. For the most part I was very by the book but you know when lanes opened up and so forth it became too tempting to resist. But once I was engaged to Jessica, she used to do this thing where she'd get in the car and she'd start doing her makeup. And it didn't quite work out so I remember one time I just pulled off and then for the rest of the car ride she was mad and I can tell and here's just a hint ladies you got to just tell us directly what upset you. I had no idea. I'm like what happened? I was just I was perplexed. And she said I'm just a little annoyed with you because you just I was doing makeup and you just took off like I wasn't even here. And it was just it showed on my part that I was being inconsiderate of her presence. Then I'll never forget the day that I drove our Aria home her first car ride from the hospital. I wanted to get like bubble wrap and just put it around her. I wanted I wanted to fill my car with foam and and I'm telling you this we put my Aria in the back seat. Jess and I we took pictures we're looking at her and then I got into drive. I had never driven so carefully in my entire life. There were no California rolls every stop. S T O P go that speed limit right on the line acceleration smooth breaking smooth turns easy. Why my awareness and reverence for the presence your awareness of him begins to change the way you live. Once you make that practice that first key awareness. It then becomes reverence. What would you change about the way you live. If God constantly stood before you in physical form. What would you change about the way you live. If God constantly stood before you in physical form like you could see him. How would you talk. Where would you stop going. How would that change the way you treat people. What would you change. Number three confidence so awareness reverence and then what begins to become produced. Number three confidence there there there that doubt that he's not with you begins to dissipate. Let me tell you something. When I first got saved. I was so desperate for encounters with God that my desperation for encounters with God became a barrier to me having encounters with God. I was so worked up so wrapped up in what I wanted in my experience and I was waiting for experience to tell me what God already did. I was waiting for my experience to show me what the scripture already showed me. I was waiting for my experience to convince me of what I should have already believed by faith that his presence abides and does not leave. Don't wait for an encounter to convince you of what you should already believe by faith. And that actually I don't know if it's ironic but it does lead to more encounters in the way I described them with physical sensation with emotions being touched lifted and so forth. John 5 14 and we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him this confidence is produced. I'm no longer second guessing my connection with him. I'll tell you this and I please please hear my heart. I'm not saying this as a way of bragging. I'm not saying this to tell you oh look how spiritual I think I am. I'm filled with many flaws. I promise you and when I first got saved it was a very difficult battle for me because I was constantly living under the turmoil of the fear of the rejection by God's hand. And I was constantly wondering where he was. I was constantly wondering why I didn't feel him. I was constantly looking from one encounter to the next not realizing that I could live in an encounter. So I'm by no means the perfect example of this but I can testify to you tonight that there has not been a moment for years that I did not believe that the presence of God was with me. I'm telling you there have been hard situations difficult times I've faced. I don't publicize them because not everything needs to be on social media. Even through all of that I can tell you that I've been 24 seven I have been aware of his presence. Whether my film or not whether my emotions are responding to him or not in that moment whether I understand what he's doing or not. I can tell you I can testify there is this constant stable awareness and when I say stable I mean it did stabilize me. You see believers all the time Sunday after church they're riding high. They're at level 100% function. They're ready to go. They believe God's with them. They're encouraged by the time Monday night comes around they're wondering if by then God has abandoned them. What did I do wrong?  What did I do to lose the presence of the Holy Spirit?  It begins to happen here is that lack of awareness and reverence destroys that confident faith. But when you live in that awareness when you live in that reverence something becomes produced in you where you decide that despite the emotional up and downs. Despite the mental up and downs despite not always feeling that physical sensation of his manifested tangible power. There is this stable constant knowing that you are in his presence. No matter the circumstance no matter how well you're performing or not performing.  Whether you're concerned for your future hopeful about your future in every circumstance in all things you have that anchor for the soul. Which is that knowing. And finally so number one is awareness number two reverence number three confidence these are things you practice. You practice reverence you practice awareness you practice confidence by learning to exchange the doubtful negative thinking for faith filled thinking. By learning to filter and then identify and expose the lies that you might instead choose to believe the truth. Number four this one's important. They all are but I need you to get this. And then after I give you this point we're going to pray. And that sense of God's presence. I believe many of you will feel including those of you watching this live and even on the replay. Number four is intention slow down your pace. John 5 19. So Jesus explained I tell you the truth. The son can do nothing by himself. He does only what he sees the father doing. Think about this for a second. Jesus was a literal reflection of the father God. When God moved he moved. You and I sometimes struggle with obeying God for the month and I think sometimes we keep our record on that. You know last month I did pretty good this month my spirituality is not so well. And for the believer who's a little more developed a little more mature they might say well this week was good last week was bad and you may judge your spiritual performance week by week. Some of you day by day think about the fact that Jesus was able to walk with God not good weeks bad weeks good minutes bad minutes but every moment absolute perfection. To where he becomes this reflection of the father God the father in heaven moving and Jesus moving with him. Do you know why some of us can't walk in this awareness of God because we move too quickly. Do you know what the root of hurry is the root of the hurry is worry however you put it however it may manifest. The root of hurry is worry. Now of course sometimes we've done things that we put ourselves in situations that we have to hurry but but you're hurrying because you're worried about missing a certain time. You're hurrying because you're worried about missing an appointment. You're hurrying because you're worried about others getting mad at you for not being there on time. But the way we live our lives these days is so fast paced. Everything needs to be now everything needs to be quickly done everything needs to be instant. Think about the fact that now on algorithms people when they're on social media they're not watching 20 minute videos 15 minute videos. It's down to 60 seconds now and even then you don't have them in the first three seconds you don't have them those swipe to the next one.  Why because everything's so quick so fast. We must learn to live as reflections of God with intention to not be stirred up by every little thing. To not be moved by every trial but to live in a grounded peace filled loving way. Now I have not perfected this believe me my personality I tend toward being more on the frantic side. Anxious just constant movement and that's just me anyone who knows me well enough knows that's just me. And so I've had to learn to really just slow down and calm down. Say that to someone next to you say slow down and calm down. We have to do it. Slow down and calm down. Oh brother David I have a question in the Bible when the Bible talks about vestus of wrath. All the apostle was saying that some people were destined by God to be thrown into pits of hell is that me. Slow down and calm down. Brother David I was sitting in a church service and they were worshiping and everyone was worshiping. The music got too loud and I thought oh that's really annoying and now I think I committed to blasphemy. The Holy Spirit please help me. Slow down and calm down. So much just stirs us up for no reason. Lord help us to live in that 24 seven awareness of your presence. So we practice these things awareness practice the presence put them in your mind as often as possible and for as long as possible. Number two reverence act with him in mind number three confidence don't doubt he's with you. Number four slow your pace that's intention now lift your hands begin to pray out loud in the Holy Spirit come on. Don't be afraid to pray boldly here we welcome it goes for you online watching too. Lord we thank you. I'm going to walk you through something in a moment. And as I walk you through this. I believe that the manifested presence of God. Is going to touch your life in a fresh way even now as we're talking I can just sense him hands lifted eyes closed.  I want you now to begin to allow the worries and the cares of this world to be cast aside. Some of you are facing sickness and bondage and addiction and trouble in your marriage and your relationship. Some of you are tormented by doctrinal issues and sin issues and so many things that might be harassing your mind. Still others just have questions doubts perhaps you're confused about something that happened or did not happen the way that you wanted it to. You might have questions about your future you might have questions about your past. Let it go right now. Let it go don't don't worry about it. Even in this moment some of you now think that God might not be willing to show you his power and presence because of something you've done. It's under the blood my friend. We confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us. Just agree with him that it's wrong and say I move on. I want you right now to hold in your heart a revelation about God that the Holy Spirit has given to you. Psalm chapter one talks about meditating on the word day and night focusing focusing simply the repetition in thoughts. Choosing your thoughts choosing your thought patterns. Not allowing the enemy to throw in a line not allowing your flesh to distract you from what the truth says. Let peace fill your heart let love fill your heart and as peace and love fill your heart joy begins to overflow. Now as Steve sings this focus on Jesus. Hear president watching online sing it out. You know what you hear. Let it be a sweet sound. Every voice lifted now singing it to the Lord. Forget about your troubles now as we cry out. One more time tell them let it be. You in the comments section. I'm not talking about emotions. I'm not talking about physical. I'm not talking about mental. Though those may have been expressions of his power touching you now. I'm talking about in the spirit. If you sense him now I want you to write those three simple words I sense him. And if you sense him in the room with you will you just wave at me here as we sit. Just wave nice and big nice and big. I want to see your hands.  That's it. That's what it takes. Do you see how easy that is? How simple? We complicate that so much. But it's so simple. It's the awareness of who he is. The reverence for who he is. Confidence in what he has done. And then I know he becomes involved. Awareness of God is the involvement of God. Awareness of God is the involvement of God. I want to challenge you with a thought. What's waiting for you on the other side of your obedience? It's a question for you too online. What's waiting for you on the other side of your obedience? There's something about the favor of God. And it's connection with those who are willing to believe God at his word. When Peter stepped out of that boat, that was a bold step. It's not as if if he was mistaken it was just a simple error. No, he was stepping into a storm. Who walks on water? He knew that the Lord had called him and because the Lord had called him and because it was at his word, Peter very boldly steps out of the boat. When the children of Israel wanted to see the walls of Jericho come down. God gave an instruction to them to march and to shout. And though any one of us might have questioned that, though the mind may have said well that doesn't exactly make sense to me. Although we may not understand all the dynamics of how God always moves still in that moment they chose to take God at his word and there was a promise on the other side of their obedience. There was a promise on the other side of their act of faith. And Moses comes to the sea and before him is nothing but a way that is blocked by water and behind him the armies of Egypt seeking to destroy them. Standing there he took God at his word and saw the seas split wide open. My friend, when you go by faith the walls will fall like water and the waters will stand like walls. He makes a way where there seems to be no way. Where you see a barrier God sees a way through. Where you see a blockage God sees a path. Where you see impossible God sees a miracle. In this hour our ministry and maybe you, we sense this call to take bold strides forward when the world is panicking when others are worrying, when people are saying that all is falling apart we focus on what God has said and we say we will not be shaken. We will not be swayed. We will remain steadfast convinced of his word that he's able to perform. I don't trust in an economy. I don't trust in the systems of man. I trust in what God has said. And because of that we're seeing expansion when others are seeing things shrink. Now is not the season for fake faith. Now is the season for true faith, bold faith. Not hesitating little steps maybe God will, maybe God won't but a bold step that says I know he will. I know he will. So I'm asking you, you sitting here and you watching online to take some bold steps right now with us. This is the season of expansion and opportunity. Even wicked men of the world know that. You know the Lord said that sometimes the children of the world are more shrewd and more intelligent in some areas than God's children. Even wicked men and women in the world know that this is the season for opportunity while everyone else is panicking they're becoming positioned. That's a fact. They are trusting the herd mentality to leave all the opportunity for them. That's a fact. We as God's people see opportunity for souls, for kingdom expansion. We're seeing strides, heavenly strides forward in this hour. So I'm asking you watching live.  You're watching now and the Holy Spirit led you here. The Holy Spirit brought you here too. Now is the time we're asking people to rise with us and take these bold steps. I want to take an offering for the ministry tonight. And I need you to exercise that bold faith and do what God tells you to do to help support this work. This is about souls. This is about discipleship. This is about kingdom expansion. You see the videos. You see the content. You see the live streams. You see the events that we host around the world. So now more than ever people of God. It's going to take bold faith in this season. And I promise you he'll catch you. And that favor will find you. Favor follows faith. Favor follows faith. I'm a living example of it. And I don't say that to boast. I say that as someone who has been humbled by God's hand. I in my own mind didn't see away what he did. And all I knew is I'm just trusting God. So ushers, I'm going to ask you to come forward now. And you online, there's a link on your screen that's going to come up. You're watching on Facebook, YouTube, wherever. Ushers, I'm going to ask you to begin to pass out those envelopes. Now you who are present here. You can give using that envelope or you can give using this QR code. You just scan it with your phone and it will take your information. If you choose to use an envelope, please make sure that you fill out all the information. Name, address and so forth. Because if you don't fill out all the information, we can't contact you.  Plus, when you fill out the envelope with your email address and all that information, you actually can stay up to date with everything that's happening with the ministry. You online, go to that link right now. I'm asking every single one of you, don't say somebody else will do it. Let the Holy Spirit soften your heart. I know that God has given you a generous soul. I know that God has given you a generous mind. You have a heart for souls. You love the gospel. You love the Lord. But sometimes we hesitate because we're a little nervous. Well, we imagine that if we give, then we'll lack. But I'm telling you this favor follows faith. And so I'm asking you to respond in generosity to give and see the gospel go forward. And those of you present who are writing checks, you can make it payable to David Hernandez Ministries. You can fill that out with the card information. I'll tell you this though, the easiest way to do it is that QR code right there. But if you can't use the QR code, that's fine. Use the envelopes. And I can actually see the names of the people giving online right now. Facebook, YouTube, through the app, people here. And the names come up on my phone right now. And so I'm seeing various different gifts coming in from around the world. I can see it loading. Like for example, thank you, Jackie. And thank you, Meen. Thank you also to Catherine who gave toward Project ETV. Thank you to Kiara. I appreciate your support. Alyssa became a monthly supporter. Julie gave a one-time gift. Martha, thank you for becoming a monthly supporter. I also see that Alicia became a monthly partner. Wilfredo became a monthly partner. Angela became a monthly partner. Thank you for your giving. I'm seeing the gift of destiny became a monthly partner. And there's also one-time gifts coming in from all over. Thank you to Alfredo who gave it. It looks like from the Philippine Islands. God bless you. And many other names still loading. I can see those coming in. I thank you for it. Now, if you still need more time to fill out your envelope, I'm just talking to give you some of that time. Beta gave a one-time gift. Iris, thank you. Thank you for Lauren. And also, Naina became a partner. And Kimberly gave a one-time gift. So many gifts coming in from around the world. And all of this goes to the gospel. All of this goes to the gospel. This does not... I don't make more depending upon how much comes in the service. It's all going to the gospel. Can we just pray that God would bless this? And I want to pray he blessed you too. And ask the Lord to really use our resources as impact for the kingdom of God. Father, we thank you that favor follows faith. And I pray tonight, Lord, that you would bless your people. Lord, they're giving for souls. They're giving because they love you. They're giving out of their heart of a generosity. But I pray, Lord, that you would increase them. I rebuke the devourer in the name of Jesus. Lord, I pray that in this season, that even if others seek calamity, that you would cause your people to see opportunity. We, again, Lord, rebuke the devourer. Thank you, Lord, that you're bringing increase in the time of trouble. Thank you, Lord, that you're moving miraculously when others might not see a way. I pray you fund every vision, every dream, every ministry. Thank you that your people will never lack in the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. And all God's people who agreed said, Almighty, amen. And as the ushers passed those buckets, I'll say to those of you watching online, if this teaching blessed you, then I want to encourage you to watch three things I've learned about prayer. In that teaching, I give you very practical insights using Scripture on truths that will help you to take your prayer life to the next level.


Hi guys it's Jasmine from Art Resin and I'm gonna show you how to do window painting today. So this is this is just an old window it's a double pane of glass here with layers of art resin on both sides tinted with resin tint and it looks good here if I do say so but it looks really good in front of the window it just absolutely lights up because it's all translucent back here just lights on fire so I'm gonna show you how to take just a regular old to grab a glass like this and do a fun window painting with it all right we can get started so here's my pane of glass I'm gonna probably do this one horizontal obviously you can do either so the first thing you're gonna do before we start anything else is clean it off this was like absolutely filthy when it started so we can start creating and the first step is gonna be painting a foreground on the front and then a background in the back and the reason why we're gonna do that is because you got this really nice double pane of glass like this so it's gonna really create a lot of depth in our picture you're gonna be able to see that the the backgrounds farther away from the the front ground and it just looks really nice so I'll show you how that works I think today I'm gonna paint just a landscape I think they're really nice you can use water-based ink alcohol ink even just acrylic paint I really like using the ink because it just gives like a more like abstract interesting feeling the important thing about this is you're gonna want to choose a composition that doesn't fill up your entire space because you want to leave a lot of background area so that you can see the resin pour because that's really gonna be the star of the show here not your foreground so I chose this thing because you see how it just really captures the idea of a tree so I just find it really inspiring to go along and kind of let the tree you know pick itself out of the ink okay so I'm gonna try and work on the background now so the foreground is still drying if it's like really wet still you probably don't want to do this because it's gonna like drip down but number one it looks really cool when it drips down and two mine's not very wet so it's okay in this case so turn it around so now I'm looking at the back here and I obviously I can see all my stuff through it right so I'm just gonna take this like spongy brush and back here I'm going to put in a whole bunch of little trees to make it look like there's like a really far away and like down low like this cliff here is hanging over a valley or something it doesn't have to be like detailed at all because it's so far away right so I love it now our ink is dry on the front so I'm gonna come back with the paint marker to like kind of fill in the trees a little bit so I don't want to put this stuff down on the paper again so I'll just use these little cups to hold it up so the ink is on there pretty tenuously right now so you don't want to like come like scraping through with your marker so you just you want to be delicate with it so you don't like it off and I think that looks really great so we're done with this stuff and I'll show you what's next okay so now we have our trees painted and our backgrounds laid so we're gonna tape up the edges and that's just gonna keep all the resin from sliding off and then we're gonna mix up some resin and we're gonna tint it and we'll pour it on and that'll create our sky background all right so we're gonna mix up some art resin with our regular wonderland ratio here and you stir it for three minutes scraping the sides on the bottom so I'm gonna pour it into each of these individual cups and then to those cups we're gonna add our resin tin and that'll make up all the different colors that are gonna be part of our sky okay so I think I'm gonna do like a purple to indigo to kind of teal color so I'm gonna start with a few drops of neon pink in this one and I'm gonna take the neon blue and add some of that so this is a nice color but you'll notice when I like bring it up onto the walls of the cup you'll see that it's almost clear so you want to keep that in mind so when it's poured over the whole thing it's gonna be a lot thinner so you're gonna have to add a lot more color into your cup you can see like how it's super dark in the cup but then if I bring it up in here it's just like a nice plum color that's what it's gonna look like all right let's move on to our next cup here it's a nice periwinkle blue so you'll notice I used neon blue and neon pink to mix this up and not regular blue and red to try and make this so the pink kind of tones it down a bit makes it a little look a little softer and now I'm gonna go for like a teal you want to be careful you want to make sure that the green isn't overpowering all right and now we're gonna be moving on to our next cup here so we're gonna add white to this cup there's not very much resin in it because we don't need very much resin this is gonna look like the clouds it's just gonna be a whole different aspect to differentiate between these more translucent colors so I'm gonna do this and I'm gonna actually I'm gonna tint it just very light blue okay now this next cup over here I'm gonna be adding glitter because I think once it gets all mixed in it looks like very organic looking canopy of stars in the in the sky okay so we got our colors mixed up and now it's time to pour on to our background there's no right or wrong here it's really about being creative it's really about finding the patterns that speak to you it's really about being loose as an artist and feeling what you like and seeing it come to life in front of you definitely experiment so have a lot of fun with it okay so I'm gonna add glitter here so the glitter sinks to the bottom so don't add a big glob of it in one spot just sort of scatter it through and then I'm gonna add a whole bunch of clear and it's just really gonna open up cells and colors and it's gonna look super cool I promise so you can kind of move the colors around now using a hairdryer or by blowing on it and I'm just gonna blow on it right now so here we go so insignificant well now that I'm all out of breath let's start it so the great part about using resin tint is that it's non-flyable so you can torch it when you're finished which is really nice and then you get rid of all the bubbles but you don't have to be too concerned about things landing in here having any sort of imperfections because this is the back of your piece all right well we're finished up here usually at this stage without a cover but this is actually the back of our piece so it doesn't really matter so I'm just gonna leave it out and I'll come back to it tomorrow hey guys we're back so here it is today I think that it looks really good I really like the colors and how they transition so the only thing that I did off-camera was I added a layer of resin to the front here and the reason for that is you see where all these like drips come through from the back these snuck through the tape while we poured our back so once we have this layer of resin on the front we're safe to grind these off so you're just gonna want to take a belt sander or palm sander or Dremel or even just a grinder and you're just gonna buzz these right off but you don't have to worry about your art it's gonna be all protected because it's covered in a nice layer of resin and then don't worry about scratching it up because we pour another layer on top it's gonna restore like the shine and everything it'll be beautiful again so we have our piece I think it looks really great over here but let's find out what it looks like in front of the window all right so here it is in front of the window I absolutely love it it really glows it's not even a particularly sunny day and you can see it really glows like a real sunrise so do your glass art put it in the window and it's super impressive I absolutely love them so thanks for watching bye for now


and the tiger financial news network.  Hi everyone this is Basel Chapman the host of the tiger technicians hour coming up straight off to this T F N N update noon time here dows up 320 points at 25,645. This is very interesting because yesterday's gap down started the Dow off this is the cash now this is the Dow itself gap down and it opens at 25,568 plunges down to 25,222. So that's the 300 something point to decline from the opening price which was a gap down from the fantastic Friday big reversal spike open late afternoon rally which saw the Dow close near the high of 26,000. And now what we're looking at is a very sharp rally and that rally has gone to what we call a great leg A because it's above the high of Friday. This is a good sign but the Magdy's got a lot of work to do in the daily chart. So casting is flat at 25% I suspect it's going to go a little lower than this to the teens. But in the meantime very good bounce really saving the day if you look at the S&P also up about 1.30%. Let's see 2008 47 up 36 up 1.28% at 35 up 30 almost $36. And this is a very good sign same thing Magdy's very poor stochastic is trying to form some kind of a base here. This is this is a very good action when you compare to this time law yesterday. So let's see where we close out my suspicion is we're going to form some kind of an H pattern at some point a little later on the week. We will find some kind of bad news to force a decline and that's the decline that's going to be very important. Is this something that goes on for most of May or are we close to some kind of a poor but I think in price I think we've done a chunk of the work in time maybe not because the QQQ the NDX 100 trading up 1.48% very nice up 263 and 181 22 but it is only modestly higher. I think that the tech sector is going to have a little bit more of a struggle here especially with this Apple there's a bunch of things that are going on in the tech sector. So let's watch this one closely. The IWM is actually up very nicely here but it hasn't taken out Friday's high. Gold tried to rally earlier on now it's down six almost seven and the dollar is holding very nicely. We'll go to more of this in my show coming up the Tiger Technicians Hour stay tuned also for Steve, Dave and Tom O'Brien later on. In the meantime stay tuned for my show the Tiger Technicians Hour. See you soon otherwise tomorrow at this time.


Welcome back. Today, we're going to talk about solving polynomial equations. Solving polynomials using synthetic substitution and also identifying what's called multiplicity of a certain solution. We'll talk about that here in a minute. Now, some of your polynomial equations are too difficult to solve by using grouping. I do have a previous video on how to solve polynomial equations by using factoring. If you want to check that out, go ahead and do that. But some of those equations are actually too difficult to use by factoring. In this example, I'll show you that you actually cannot use factoring to solve this. And so instead of factoring, we're going to use something else to help us with that. We're actually going to use synthetic substitution. So here's the situation. You're trying to solve this polynomial. You're trying to solve it, set equal to 0. Now, your first instinct, since you're solving polynomial equations, your first instinct is always try to factor. So now that your first instinct is to try to factor by grouping. So in this case, I have my group here on the left and my group here on the right. This group here on the left, I notice they have an x squared as a common factor. So when I factor that, I get x squared and then x plus 6 is what I get after I factor. This here, I notice that they have a 4 in common. So I'm going to take a 4 out. That means I'm left with 3x plus 2. Hmm. OK, now I factored correctly. I know I did. But the idea behind factoring by grouping is that this group and this group should be the exact same. They should be the same, because then I factor out that group. I would be able to factor out this group and then I would have an x squared plus 4 left over. But this group here is not the same. So I can't factor that. There's no way I can factor that. OK, so now here's the situation. You try to factor by grouping, but it just doesn't work. So we've got to have another strategy. We've got to have another way of solving these polynomial equations. So that didn't work. I've got to try something else. So this is where synthetic substitution actually comes in. So you learn synthetic substitution way back when you talked about synthetic division, when you talked about long division, polynomial long division. So this is where synthetic substitution is useful. So now what I'm going to do is I'm actually going to look at this number 8 right here. That number 8, and actually this number 1 that's out here, this one that we usually don't write, but that's right out there, those numbers are actually going to help us to figure out what we can divide by. Now in this case, what we're going to do is we're going to use factors of 8. We're going to use factors of 8 to try to figure out what to use for synthetic substitution. So now I'm going to set up synthetic substitution so we know a little bit more of what I'm talking about. I have a number here, and then I write my coefficients right here. So my coefficients are 1, 6, 12, and 8. No gaps, 3, 2, 1, 0. No gaps. And then I set this up. So now that I have set up my synthetic substitution, I need to know what number I'm substituting in. This number right here that's going to the box that I multiply with, that number I need to figure out what that is. In this case, that number is going to be factors of 8, factors of 8. That's kind of an easy way to figure out what numbers we can use. Now factors of 8, there's actually a lot of factors of 8. To list them out really quickly, factors of 8 could be, well, 8, 4, 2, and 1. But then also positives and negatives. Whenever we think about these numbers, we always have to think about the positives and negatives. So actually, there's eight different factors of 8. And as you can well imagine, as the numbers get bigger, we get more and more factors. So I need to test out a couple of these factors to see what's going to work. Now, this is where, if you're really good with synthetic substitution, you can just try a few numbers to figure out what might work. In this case, I'm going to try 2. I'm going to try 2 to see what's going to work. So now, here we go. Now I'm going to see if 2 is going to work. So I'm going to bring down this 1. 1 times 2 is 2. So 6 plus 2 is 8. 2 times 8 is 16. Add that together to get 28. That times 2 is going to be 56. 56 plus 8 is 64. No, that doesn't work. How do I know that doesn't work? Remember, this box right here, that tells me that's a remainder. I have a remainder of 64. Now technically, what I'm doing is I'm dividing by x minus 2. I'm trying to figure out if that's a factor, and it's the positive 2 that I would plug in. So that means that x minus 2 has a remainder of 64, which tells me that that does not divide evenly. So I got to try again. So that one didn't work for me. So this 2 right here did not work for me. So I got to do this over again. So now, this is where we become really good at synthetic substitution. We do this faster. So instead of a positive 2, let's try subbing in a negative 2. So in this case, I'm testing to see if x plus 2 is a factor for this polynomial. So let's try this again. So bring down the 1, multiply here to get negative 2. Multiply that to get what is that, 4? No, yep, 4. Negative 2 times 4 is negative 8. Add that to get 4. Negative 2 times 4 is negative 8. Hold on, remainder of 0. Yes. What that tells me right there with a remainder of 0, I just found that x plus 2 is a factor of this polynomial, which means it divides evenly, which means that I can factor this. Now, I'm going to use this right here. This synthetic substitution is going to help me factor. So the first factor is x plus 2. This factor right here, using negative 2 for a synthetic substitution, told me that it divided evenly. Now, if I were to divide it, if I take this polynomial divided by x plus 2, this right here coincidentally is my answer. So not only am I checking to see if I don't have a remainder to see if it divides evenly, this also tells me what the answer is. Well, part of the answer. It tells me my next step in factoring. So this actually tells me that this is my squared. This is going to be x squared, then x, and then constant. So it's going to be x squared plus 4x plus 4. So this actually tells me this piece right here, I can factor out an x plus 2, and then this would be the remainder. Nice. All right, so that's why we can use synthetic substitution, because, well, heck, factoring by grouping just wasn't working, so I had to find something different. So I was looking at all these different factors. I tried to plug in a positive 2, didn't work, so I tried to plug in a negative 2, and it did work, which tells me what one of my factors is. So that factor is sitting right there, and that's going to help me to factor the rest of this. Now, this is actually manageable now. After that, notice here, x squared plus 4x plus 4, I can still factor that. That I can do in my head. I don't need another fancy process. I don't need to do another synthetic substitution to try to figure out this. So actually, I can factor this one more time. Let me actually bring this down a little bit farther. x plus 2, and then factor this. This is going to be numbers that multiply to get, let me set this up a little bit better, x is here, numbers that multiply to get 4 add to get 4. Well, that's just plus 2 and the x plus 2. Wow. Now notice that I have x plus 2, x plus 2, x plus 2. All these are the exact same, kind of interesting coincidence. But now notice there's actually two things we're doing here. Solving polynomial is using synthetic substitution and identifying something called multiplicity. Now the thing is, we have one solution here. In this case, x is equal to negative 2. Negative 2 works, negative 2 works, negative 2 works. I'm only going to write it once. Negative 2 has a multiplicity of, and you might be able to guess it, how many times does this negative 2 show up? It shows up three times. Now the multiplicity part, that tells you a lot about the graphing. In this video, I'm not going to go over with the graphing because I don't have enough room for all the graphs or any of that kind of stuff. But the multiplicity actually tells you a lot about what the graph is going to look like. Hopefully, your teacher at the time, if you're going through this, will show you using graphs what multiplicity means for a graph. Alrighty, that is just one example of solving polynomials using synthetic substitution. I do have another example that I'm going to use. So this video is going to be a little bit long. So here's my second example. Solving polynomials using synthetic substitution and identifying multiplicity. So this is just another example. I'm going to go through this again. So in this case, now I know, I'm going to save a little bit of time, I know that this is not going to work by factoring by grouping. So if I'm trying to solve this equation, I know that factoring by grouping is not going to work. So I'm going to go straight in, straight in, to using synthetic substitution. So I'm going to set that up right away. 4, 3, 2, notice x to the first. I don't have that, so I have a gap there. So when I set up my coefficients, I'm going to have a gap of 0. I don't have an x to the first power term. So that means I have a 0 there. You've got to put that in there. Now here's the trick. I've got to figure out what number to multiply by here. Now the number I'm going to multiply with here is going to be a factor of 27. So that's going to be numbers like 27, 9, 3, or 1, something like that. Let's start with something small. Let's just start with 3. Let's just start with a positive 3. Let's see if this one works or not. Now 3 or negative 3, those are pretty good numbers to start with. Or even 1, one might be easier to work with. But I want to start with 3. It doesn't really matter what you start with. Just try to start with something simple. And so if you make a mistake, if it's not the right factor, you can very quickly go back and change it up. OK, so let's start the process. Bring this one down. 3 times 1 is 3. 8 times 3 is, or see, 8 plus 3 is 11. That's going to be 33. Add that down to get 51. Multiply to get, what is that, 51 times 3 is 153. Add that down. It's not going to work. It's just not going to work. This could be, what is that, 459 or something like that. Yeah, it's not going to give me 0. It's not going to divide evenly. So right away, I can tell it's not going to work. So let's try something different. In this case, I'm going to try negative 3. What happens if I use negative 3? All right, so bring the one down. Multiply here to get negative 3. That's going to multiply to get 5. Multiply is to get negative 15. Adds to get 3. Multiply is to get negative 9. Adds to get negative 9. Multiply is to get 27. Oh, look you there. Just by changing the negative on it, I found something that actually divides evenly. So this actually tells me that x plus 3, remember when we got to change the sign there, x plus 3 is going to be a factor for, is going to be one of my factors. So x plus 3, and then this right here, tells me after I take this x plus 3 and factor it out, this tells me what the remainder is going to be, what's going to be in my second parentheses over here. So in this case, constant linear quadratic cubic. So this is going to be x to the third, 1x to the third, plus 5x squared plus 3x minus 9. And of course, equals 0. All righty. So that's one step of using the synthetic substitution. Now, here's the thing. As I look over here with my previous example, I looked at this parentheses, and I was able to look at it and just factor it. That's not the case now. I can't just look at this and factor it. Can I use factoring by grouping? I might be able to, but I don't want to mix up my different processes together. So you know what? I'm just going to do synthetic substitution again. I'm just going to use it again. So in this case, what I'm going to do is I'm going to try to figure out, take this piece of it. So I'm going to use a different color here. I'm going to take this piece of it right here, and I'm going to see what is going to divide evenly into that. So I'm going to do my work down here. So now, as we can see, the higher up you get in level of mathematics, the more organized you have to be. Because now I have 1, 5, 3, and negative 9. And actually, you can get those numbers from right there. But the thing is I want to figure out what factors to use. And so now what I'm looking at is I'm looking at negative 9. Factors of 9 are going to be 9 and 3 and that kind of thing. So you know what? Heck, let's just use this one again. Let's see if x plus 3 is going to be another factor. Let's just try it. I mean, it's a legitimate try. I can use a negative 3, a positive 3, negative 9, positive 9, negative 1, positive 1. I mean, any of them will work. So let's see if this is going to work. Bring the 1 down, multiply here to get negative 3. Add that to get 2. Multiply to get negative 6. Add that to get negative 3. Multiply to get positive 9. Oh, look at that. First try. Good job. First try. All right, so I know that that divides evenly. So here we go. x plus 3 is yet again another factor. So now I'm going to take this, bring it down. x plus 3 was the first factor. x plus 3 is yet again another factor. And then this part has been factored out. The x plus 3, here's the remainder right here of x squared, a 1x squared, plus 2x minus 3 equals 0. There we go. All righty. And you know what? I think I can factor this one more time. So I use synthetic substitution to find my first factor. This second part here, I use synthetic substitution to find it yet again another factor, which coincidentally happened to be the same as the first. Now over here, I'm going to factor this one more time. Now this factoring right here is actually going to be easier than all the rest.  And then this right here, I could actually factor just your good old fashioned two parentheses factoring, numbers that multiply to negative 3 and add to a positive 2 are positive 3 and negative 1. So that factoring is actually easier. I didn't have to do my synthetic substitution again. So that saves me a little bit of time, a little bit of effort. Now everything is completely factored. And again, what am I doing here? I am solving. I'm trying to solve this equation up here. So now what I do is my two solutions are my solutions. Actually, oh, look at this. I have 3, 3, and 3. So I have x is equal to negative 3. And I have x is equal to 1. Those are my two solutions. But negative 3 has a multiplicity of how many times? 1, 2, 3, multiplicity of 3. So negative 3 actually has a multiplicity of 3, whereas x equals 1. It doesn't have a multiplicity. It just happens. It just occurs once. Awesome. So that's another problem of solving polynomials using synthetic substitution. I'm going to try to cut this short. Thank you for watching the video. And we'll see you next time.
