Good morning, everyone. Welcome to class. Let's begin today's session with a word of prayer. I want to request one of us on the call to kindly go ahead and lead in prayer, please. Lord, I thank you for this day. Thank you Jesus for the time that we have here that we can come together to study and to hear and to also gain the knowledge, the Father God, of how to overcome the devil, how to overcome the enemy. And Jesus, I pray that you'll help us to come to you seeking for strength and help, and that you'll help us to overcome all things, and that you're always with us. Thank you, Father God, that you will use us as we study together. Amen. Amen. Thank you. Thank you, Rin. So as we have seen, we have an active enemy, but God has also given us the things we need to be able to face this enemy, to overcome this enemy, and the factors that he's already defeated. So in the last class, we talked about maintaining a lifestyle that will help us keep the devil out, keep his works out of our lives. So we said that, you know, as long as we are walking in our place of intimacy with the Lord, as long as we have taken up our position of responsibility, the commission that God has given us, in God's presence, that's already a safe place. You know, the enemy can't come and try to derail us from God's plan for our lives. But in addition to that, we talked about the importance of things like faith, prayer, intercession, fasting. So all of this puts us in a better place, you know, and we can overcome, because it's the practice of the enemy to keep shooting fiery darts on us, but we can quench it all if we keep ourselves in this particular place. So we can grow in these things, we can develop these things in our daily lives, and you know, we really walk victorious as we take these things seriously. So today, just along the same lines, we will talk some more about overcoming the enemy and how to really stand our ground against the evil one. That's the whole point. So chapter 10 here, it talks about a couple of things that we can continue to use against the enemy.  Like, it's definitely warfare. The enemy tries to come against us, he's defeated, but since he has some more time here on the earth, he will do everything in his power to bring us down. And so sometimes we have to engage. We maintain a position of prayer and intimacy and, you know, taking up our calling and all, but we also have to use other things that God has given us against the devil. And so we will see today all the, if you want to call them tools or weapons or opportunities that God has given us against the enemy, we can understand it and we can put to use. So in 2nd Corinthians 10, verses 3 to 5, when we read about, you know, the enemy attacking our minds, the word of God says that we have not, the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but they are mighty in God for the pulling down of strongholds. So God gives us spiritual weapons, because we are fighting a spiritual enemy.  Or, you know, you use your gadgets, which you use for security in the natural, those gadgets don't work. So the Bible tells us that there are spiritual weapons for, you know, our weapons, they are not carnal, but they are mighty in God for the pulling down of strongholds. So there are spiritual weapons, which we have been given. These are powerful weapons against the enemy. If we want to enforce victory, why are we saying enforce victory? We are saying enforce victory because victory is already us. We already have victory. We just have to put it in action or put it in place against the devil. So are we fighting for victory? Are we still fighting for victory? What do you think? As believers, has Jesus called us? Okay, now you go, you fight, you become, you get the victory. Is that what Jesus is asking us to do? No. Okay. So I see that answer on our chat here. No. Jesus has already won the victory for us. So we already have the victory. So now our task is actually simpler. And that's why we are using the term enforce. So everything that we are going through, we have to recognize, I'm already victorious. I just have to enforce or put it into action this victory that God has given me. And for that, God has also given us these tools or weapons which we can use. So these weapons, they can be weapons which are used to attack the devil. Remember, last class we said, we talked about the sword of the spirit. So you take, you go offensive on the devil or they can be used to defend ourselves. The enemy is attacking. How do I protect myself? Things like the shield of faith. We said, when I hold up the shield of faith, when I'm walking in faith, no matter what the enemy tries to do, it can't really pierce me. It can't get to me. So we can both defend as well as go on the offensive or attack the enemy. So what are these tools? What are these weapons which we have been given? So we look at each one of them one by one. First, of course, is the armor of God. The armor of God is talked about in Ephesians chapter 6 and it has parts to it. So there is a comparison of the Roman armor of those times to what the believer needs to have in place to overcome the enemy. So in the spiritual sense, what are the parts of our armor? So every believer should have, it says righteousness. Remember, we see the breastplate of righteousness there and I explained also in the last class that simply means that I am already established in the reality that I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. I am sanctified, justified, made holy and no longer does God look at me as an enemy but I am a child of God. I am a friend of God. So that is putting on the breastplate of righteousness. When I'm walking with that understanding, the enemy cannot easily get me and the other understanding of the breastplate of righteousness is to walk in righteousness. So when I'm walking in integrity, when I'm walking in integrity of thought, integrity of speech, integrity of actions, deeds, then that's also a safe place and the enemy cannot get in easily. So then we also have the belt of truth. I know we talked about that also to walk in the truth, to be grounded in the truth of God's word. So then what happens? Then all this is protecting me. When I'm in warfare, I'm protected. From the attacks of the devil, readiness to share the gospel, salvation, helmet of salvation, it protects us. Faith as a shield protects us. Then God's word, you know, as a sword, it protects us. So in Ephesians 6 and verse 10, Paul says, he says, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. So we are being called to be strong. So you can imagine yourself, I can imagine myself as a warrior, as a soldier, a soldier of God in the battle of life. And we have the armor, we have put on the armor and we are standing strong. And you know, he says, this is how you should see yourself, put on everything, walk in these things, believe these things and be strong. What is the meaning of be strong, be empowered, increase in strength, right, in these things. And in the power of his might, power of his might is the ability of God to work out everything for us, the ability, the might or the force of God. So then when I am strong in these things, God's power also becomes strong in me. So that's how we understand this. I stand strongly with the armor on and God's power also becomes strong in me and I'm able to overcome the enemy. So that is about the armor. I can use the armor to stay protected against the enemy. Now coming back to other things, which we can continue to use as weapons in our fight against the devil, we have, excuse me, we have listed out faith again. Faith is already in the armor. I agree. But you cannot overemphasize faith. It's that important when a child of God is walking in faith. Where does the enemy come to attack us usually in our minds and his ways of getting us his doubts, accusation, confusion generally happens in our minds. So when one has the word of God dwelling in the mind, in the heart, has a renewed mind, faith is very active. Faith is strong in that person's life. So it becomes difficult for the enemy to get us. So faith is another weapon. Use it. Use it. We said shield of faith, right? Hold it up every day. Make sure our faith, especially in the battles that we may have. Now we said that each of us know our own areas of weakness. So if my area of weakness is my identity as a child of God, and every time Satan attacks me in my mind and makes me feel that I'm not worthy, that I'm not blessed, I'm not accepted, then I have to fight it. I have to battle it out. So I build faith in the area of my identity. Then what happens? I can overcome the enemy. So depending on even the things of concern in our own lives, I can build faith in that specific area. So if I'm battling weaknesses of the flesh, I have to build faith in that area. So maybe lust, I'm battling that. So I build faith. I read the word, I meditate the word, I strengthen myself. So as faith is being built up in that area, when the enemy comes lying, I can easily overcome. Or let's say I'm going through a season of sickness, and I'm really, you know, in almost being pushed to a place to doubt God or question God. But when I am in a place of faith, I'm meditating the word, I'm praying that word through what happens. I'm actually strong, though I'm going through a seemingly discouraging face, I know that God will come through, his word will come through. So that's how it's sort of like, you know, this enemy cannot penetrate when one is keeping themselves in faith. So faith becomes a weapon, use it as a weapon against the devil. A word of God, yes, we have already discussed that, you know, word of God is so powerful. And Jesus also used the word of God as a weapon. And rightly, it is spoken of as the sword of the spirit. So with the sword, what do we do? You know, we damage the enemy, we attack the enemy.  So we can use the word as a weapon. And that's what Jesus did during the temptation.  So the word of God, one beautiful thing about the word is, we can listen to the word, we can also put the word in our hearts. So when we read Proverbs chapter four, it says, incline your ears to the word and to my sayings, keep them in the midst of your heart. So the word of God can dwell in our hearts. Okay. And that is a benefit for us because we can use it anytime. So we have some passages here in our notes, Romans chapter 10 verse eight, Deuteronomy 30 verses 11 through 14, where basically what it says is, the word of God is near you. It is in your heart. It is in your mouth. And you can use it. I can use it. So we don't even have to wait to let's say call the pastor. I'm going through all this confusion in my mind. Okay, call the pastor, call the counselor. You don't even have to wait to reach out to someone. Where is the word? The word is in your heart. The word is in your mouth. We go ahead and speak it and we will see the fruit of it. And in fact, in the book of Revelation, we see that when Jesus speaks, his tongue, his words, like his words are revealed as the sword in the book of Revelation because it's the word that he will speak which will destroy the enemy's enemy nations and the enemy camps. So that is the power of the word of God. So when I'm battling as a believer, it's so, so important to use the word. If I don't know what the word of God says about a particular matter, then the enemy can easily get that believer. And that's why growing people in the word, helping people know what does the word say about identity, healing, deliverance, purity. It's so very important. And when the word is there, we can enforce the victory easier, faster. So keep the word in our hearts. Now, the other weapon which we can use is the truth about the blood of Jesus. What has the blood of Jesus done for us? We read in Revelation 12 verse 11, they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony and did not love their lives unto death. So how did the believers overcome the devil, Satan, adversary, enemy through the blood? We overcome the devil by the blood when we mention the work of the blood. So what is the work of the blood? What is the work that blood in general, when we read about it in Leviticus chapter 17, we know that life is in the blood. So that is why blood is so important. Even in so many cultures in the world around, people know about blood and blood, people even go to the extent of blood sacrifices and things like that because somewhere there is that innate knowing of the importance of the blood when one loses blood, life is going out of that person. And so even in the Bible, in Leviticus 17, 11, it says that life is in the blood and how beautiful that God gave his only son that he would shed his blood to redeem us, his blood to cleanse us, his blood to protect us.  So what does the enemy do? He'll come with lies.  But what has the blood done? The blood has cleansed us. The blood is what washes us, isn't it? He washes us by the blood of the Lamb. We see that in 1 John chapter 1 was 7, Revelation 1 was 5. So the truth is, the blood has washed me. So Satan, don't lie to me. I'm already washed. I'm cleansed. So the cleansing of the blood, you declare it. No, the blood has cleansed me.   So we speak of what the blood has done for us. We know that we are justified by the blood. I'm not quoting all the scriptures. It's all in your notes. But you see that. So I speak the truth against the lie. And that is how you defeat the devil. No, the blood has justified me. No, the blood has reconciled me. The blood has brought me near to God. The blood has given me boldness to enter into the Holy of Holies. The blood is what sealed the new covenant which I have with God. Now, the blood is what has sanctified me. The blood has redeemed me. The blood has purchased the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. The blood cleanses me from a dead conscience, from my conscience from dead works. The blood has redeemed me from a vain way of living. So you see that there are all these realities of what the blood of Jesus has done for us. So each time the enemy comes with any lie, some lie where he says that no, God is not hearing your prayers. But you see, even in the Old Covenant, what did they do? They had the Ark of the Covenant. They had the mercy seat and they put the representative blood of animals on that mercy seat and God would come and meet with them.  So God meets with me. God communes with me. I am not far away from God. God hears my prayer. God answers my prayer. So what is happening? It's a battle, isn't it? You can sense the battle. Satan is saying something. We are saying something else. So we are using our weapons. We are using our weapons of warfare, our armor. We are using faith. We are using the word. We are using the full capacity of the blood of Jesus.  The blood has given me white robes. It has cleansed me. I am clean before the Lord. My communion with the Lord is established. So in this way, we can fight the devil. So are you all okay? Are you all getting what I'm trying to say or is it a little off? I hope you can hear me. Okay, great. All right. Thank you so much. Thank you. Okay, let's continue then. Let's look at a few more weapons or tools we can use against the devil. So notice I said in the last class earlier when Adam and Eve were in communion with God. They were in communion already. They were in obedience. They were in submission. They were in the garden. So when sin had not come to the world, God never gave them armor, blood of Jesus, weapons, no need. So just that place of intimacy with God is in itself, it protects us from Satan. It keeps us stronger. We are victorious. We are walking victorious because every day what's happening, we are walking in intimacy with the Lord. So intimacy in itself is very powerful. It will protect us. But once sin came into the world, that's when all these weapons came into the picture.  So now we have all these additional weapons that we can use to enforce our victory. So how does the enemy come against us? He will come with mind games. He will come, we said with his tactics of intrusion, of violation. So he attacks. So in those moments, I have to rise up and say, no devil, I'm already victor. You can't do this. Basically, what are we? We are like those constables or those policemen who are, we know the boundary. You can't. Beyond this, you cannot. So then I start using my weapons against him. I speak what the blood has done. I can use the name of Jesus. That's the next weapon. So the name of Jesus talks about the authority of Jesus. So when I say in the name of Jesus, what am I doing? I'm enforcing the authority of who Jesus is. Who is Jesus? We know that he's highly exalted. He's the Son of God and the Bible says in Hebrews 1 verse 4, that name, the name of Jesus. It's a more excellent name. We won't find any other name in this world, in the heavens, nowhere, which is greater than the name of Jesus. So when I say in the name of Jesus, what am I doing? I'm using the greatest name that ever existed, going to exist in God's eyes. And so it's the most excellent name that nobody has, not even the angels, not even heavenly beings. So it's the most excellent name that I'm using, which is talking about Jesus. It is a worthy and an honorable name, you know, as the Bible reveals in the book of James, James 2 verse 7. It's a name which is above all names as the book of Philippians reveals in chapter 2 verses 5 through 11. So I'm using the highest and the best name that refers to the Lord Jesus himself. So it's so powerful, the greatest name I'm using against the devil. I come against you in the name of Jesus, the greatest name ever, the most powerful name ever. Why is this name so great?  So already he's great because he's God, he's deity. That's why his name is so great. But as we look at the person that he is and what he has done, we see that he chose to become a man. So in Philippians 2, it talks about his humility. He gave up his, you know, his glory of heaven and he was willing to humble himself to be a man and that increases his greatness and that is why God has given him a name above every other name. So it's also his humility. It's the fact that he obeyed God, that he became a man. He took up the mandate of our redemption from the Father. He represented mankind. He died for the sins of the entire human race. He was victorious over Satan.  As we study the book of Hebrews, he was chapter 4 verse 15. It says that he never sinned. He was blameless. Though he lived as a human being, he never sinned and which is why death could not hold him. Death could not keep him. So that is the greatness of our Lord Jesus by inheritance and by actions, by character, by virtue, by obedience, everything. You know, he has become great and now where is he? We know that he is seated at the highest place in the heavens. He is seated at the right hand of the Father and then he'll come back. He'll come back one day to rule and reign and everything will be on his shoulders. So I'm just trying to awaken us to the fact that when we use the name of Jesus, it's referring to all this, such a great name, such a great person. He is above all, he is the king of kings, the Lord of lords. So when I'm using the name of Jesus against the devil, I'm actually talking about Jesus. I'm actually like, you know, throwing it out there on the basis of this person of the Godhead. I'm coming against you, Satan. And the name of Jesus, it's given as a weapon to us because whenever we speak of the name of Jesus, the Bible also says there is forgiveness in the name of Jesus. There is salvation in the name of Jesus. Prayers are answered in the name of Jesus. There is healing in the name of Jesus. You know, when you lay hands in my name, people will be healed. You'll cast out demons in the name of Jesus. Miracles take place in the name of Jesus. There is authority in the name of Jesus. Every time, you know, we come together as two or three in the name of Jesus. What does the Bible say? We will experience his presence.  It's a powerful name. So as I take the name of Jesus, especially against the devil, I can be assured that it's a weapon. You know, it's demolishing. It's destroying the works, the attacks, the schemes, the plots, whatever the enemy is trying to raise up against me, raising up a weapon against a child of God. Okay, come on, let's go with the name of Jesus, the authority of the name of Jesus.  Now, the name of Jesus, I think I've shared this earlier as well, also is like the, you know, we equate it with the power of attorney. So when somebody gives us, makes us a representative for them, that's in legal terms, you know, they do that with the power of attorney. So it's as if that person is operating through us. So that is what the power of attorney means.  So when I, when I, let's say cast out a demon and I cast it out in the name of Jesus, what's happening? It's like Jesus telling the demon, come out. I am standing, but who is actually operating? Christ is operating through me. So that's how the power of attorney is understood. It's like saying, yes, Jesus has sent me, but it's as if Jesus himself is speaking to the demons. It's as if Jesus himself is, you know, getting things moving and the action is happening because I am a representative on behalf of the Lord Jesus and I have the power of attorney. So with that name, right, we can, we can use the authority of the kingdom and God says, use my name, just use my name and that is a weapon against the devil. So that is how we understand the name of Jesus as a tool or a weapon. Now coming to the next tool here, it is the power of the Holy Spirit, the power of the Holy Spirit and especially in deliverance when, you know, we are fighting the devil, the Holy Spirit power is very important. You know, at a time when Jesus cast out a demon spirit in Matthew chapter 12, verse 28, he said that I did it by the Spirit of God. He was being questioned. How did you do it? How did you do it? Did you do it by Beelzebub, one of the demonic powers? How did you do it? So he gives the answer. He says, you know what, I overcame the devil. I cast out the devil by the Spirit of God, by the working of the Spirit of God. So the Holy Spirit of God, when we bring in the power of the Spirit, we invite the power of the Spirit, when we create that space for the Holy Spirit in our lives, how do we do that? We do that by, you know, the word, we do that by prayer, we do that by increasing the anointing on our lives. What happens? The Spirit of God is at work. When the Spirit of God is at work, obviously, Satan cannot stand. Satan is already defeated, but then he has to accept his defeat and he has to retreat when the power of the Spirit is demonstrated. And so, you know, the power of the Spirit is another weapon which we can use against the devil. Now, we know that the Spirit of God carries the power of God to break, in Isaiah 10, 27, it says, yoke and the anointing will destroy the yoke. What is a yoke? Yoke is, what Satan does, yoke is bondage. Yoke is, you know, if you want to look at it as chains, yoke is slavery. Yoke is, you know, sort of a forced oppression, pressure that Satan puts on people. But what does the Bible say? The Bible says, the anointing shall destroy the yoke or the work of the Holy Spirit. So, when the Spirit is operational through my life, right, what happens? Bondages are being broken. People are being set free. Deliverance is coming. Demons are leaving. You know, strongholds are being uprooted. They are being removed off of people's minds. So, all these powerful and mighty things take place when the Spirit, the Holy Spirit is operational. So, how do we go against the enemy? We must pray and we must ask God, let the Holy Spirit dwell in me, oh God. Lord, let the anointing of the Spirit increase over my life, oh God. And Lord, when I go to minister, let me not do it, you know, in my own strength, not by power, not by might, but by the Spirit. So, you know, we try to make space. I'm just using that phrase, but I don't know if it's technically correct. But allow the Spirit, allow the Spirit to work. It becomes a weapon in our hands when the Holy Spirit is releasing Himself mightily, then things of the Kingdom of Darkness will start breaking. So, that's a weapon we can use. Always be empowered. Yesterday in our prayer time, we prayed, if you all recall, Lord, fill me with Your Spirit. Fill me with Your Spirit. So, we desire. The more we are filled with the Spirit, the more we walk in the anointing of the Spirit. We'll see the, you know, the retreat of the devil. He has to move out. There's no other way. You know, demons have to run away because of the power of the Holy Spirit. So, that is another weapon which we can use against the enemy. And the next, and it's the last weapon here in our notes, which is the proclamation of His praises. So, when we praise God, that also becomes a weapon. So, I want us to read these passages, Psalm 8 and verse 3. If one of us can read it, that'll be nice. Another person can read Psalm 149 verses 5 through 9, please. So, two passages, Psalm 8 verse 3, Psalm 149 verses 5 through 9. We'll read it, and then we'll talk a little bit about the praises. Can you volunteer us to read it? Kindly unmute in case you're reading. Yes, Jack, you want to read? Yeah, I took one, Psalm 145 verse 5 through 9. Is it okay? Yeah, you can read it. Psalm 149. 149. Yeah. Then the next person who I was reading can do Psalm 8. Let the saints rejoice in this honor and sing for joy on their beds. May the praise of God be in their mouths and a double-edged sword in their hands to inflict vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples, to bind their kings with fetters, their nobles with shackles of iron, to carry out the sentence written against them. This is the glory of all His saints. Praise the Lord. Amen. Thank you, Jack. That's an amazing passage right there. I'm just trying to see what an easier version says. Sorry, I didn't look it up before the other version. Okay. The one that I read was NIV. NIV. Okay, okay. Sure, sure, sure.  But I thought maybe something simpler. Okay, I'll just do the message version just to see. I wanted the passion translation, but it's not available here. So, the message version from verses 5 through 9, it says, Let true lovers break out in praise, sing out from whenever they are sitting, wherever they are sitting, shout the high praises of God, brandish their swords in the wild sword dance, a potent of vengeance on the God-defined nations, a signal that punishments coming, their kings chained and hauled off to jail, their leaders behind bars for good, the judgment on them carried out to the letter, and all who love God in the seat of honor, hallelujah. So, okay. So, it does in a simpler way, it puts it, things like kings are chained, hauled off to jail, sent to jail, leaders put behind bars. So, what does praise do? What does praise actually do? So, it's very interesting that God is saying, when we praise, what is praise? Now, you can ask that question. Praise is when we are exalting, acknowledging the characteristics of God and we are, we are declaring it also. We are saying God, you're good, your love and yours forever, or your faithfulness is great. Lord, you are majestic, you're glorious, you're holy. So, the praises of God, what happens? When I'm praising God, we saw all that war language, isn't it, where people are bound and the enemy is defeated. So, in the spiritual realm, whether we can, we can grasp it or not, war is happening when we are praising. That's what the Bible says. So, at times we could just be praising and things will change. We have good examples in the Bible, when Jehoshaphat, he went into battle, what did God ask him to do? Just praise. When they praise the enemy, they set ambush against one another and the enemy automatically defeated themselves. And similarly, when there is praise, you talk about people like Paul and Silas, they're in the midnight hour, they are in the prison.  I always wonder, what is there to sing about when you're in the prison, when everything has gone wrong. But we read Paul and Silas. That's why the Bible says, sacrifice of praise. Sometimes we don't feel like it, we don't feel like praising God, but we do it anyway. So, they are praising God, they're singing hymns to God. What do we read? We read that the chains were broken, the shackles were broken. They were set free, not only them, praise had an impact on the people around them, that everyone in the prison was set free. Something supernatural took place when they were praising God. So, the Bible has so much to say about praises. And we are all familiar, that one song which became popular in the recent years, I raise a hallelujah in the midst of my enemies, I raise a hallelujah. What are we doing? We are going according to Psalm 149. When we are praising God, automatically the enemy is getting defeated in the spiritual realm. So, that's how it works. And that's what the Bible is saying. So, now that we are talking about overcoming the devil, using our weapons, sometimes praise is the best weapon that you and I can use. We don't feel like, we don't feel like singing, we don't feel like acknowledging God's goodness, but those are the times as you lift up a praise to the Lord and you say, God, I praise you, I thank you. And even when we are singing, we may be singing unto the Lord. What happens? In the spiritual realm, war is taking place. We are speaking judgment on the devil. So, we are enforcing our victory. It's just so, so powerful. Okay, let's move on. Psalm 8 verse 3, please. Would anyone have that open? Psalm 145 verse. That is over. We can do Psalm 8 verse 3. When I consider your heavens, can you hear me? Yes. Yes, Nina. When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, do I continue? Or is it that? Just a moment. You said 8-3, right? Yeah, once again, I hope the reference is correct. 8-2, sorry. 2. 8-2. From the lips of children and infants, you have ordained praise because of your enemies to silence the foe and the avenger. Okay, so it's quite self-explanatory that God has put praise even in the mouth of babes, it says, right? So even in the mouth of babes, to do what? To execute vengeance on the enemy, to silence the enemy and the avenger. Who is the enemy? Who is the avenger? Satan. Even out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants. So that's so encouraging to know that whether it is little children who are singing to the Lord or young believers, they are just fresh in the kingdom of God. They are born again and now they're learning things in the kingdom of God. Whoever it is, when praise is on our lips, when we have a praising, we have praising lips, what is happening? We are executing judgment. We are executing judgment on the devil and Satan is very scared of praise and that is the power of praise. So use praise. So today we talked about weapons which we can use against the enemy. We said we can have the armor of God which will protect us and there are also offensive parts of the armor which we can use against the devil. We talked about the importance of faith. Faith will keep us unshakable even if the enemy attacks us. We talked about the importance of the word of God. Be full of the word. Be full of the word then it's easy. We can enforce our victory. We talked about the importance of the blood of Jesus and the understanding. I need to get understanding. What is the blood done for me? When a person has understanding of the blood of Jesus, then again we overcome the devil. Then we have understanding about the name of Jesus. What is the authority of the name of Jesus? Use it. Use it. Satan, I come against you in the name of Jesus and he has to flee from us. The power of the Holy Spirit, when we are increasing in the might of the Spirit in our lives, when the work of the Holy Spirit is increasing in our lives, it becomes very powerful and Satan is defeated. Finally we looked at the fact that claiming the praises of God is also very powerful. We really thank God that he's already given us the victory and he wants us to walk in victory as we use these weapons. I'm just reading a comment here from Jack in. She says the Bible also says give thanks in all circumstances. So singing praises is we magnifying God for who he is. Are these two different or we just have to thank him for who he is and what he's done for us in spite of the situations we are going through? Yes Jack, technically you are right. The difference between thanking God and praising God where you are exalting or magnifying him. So that would technically mean praise. So yes, but I'm just saying without really going so much into the technicalities but to just lift up our God and lift up his name, lift up who he is to us, that is powerful in itself. So I hope that's okay. Okay, sure. Did someone raise your hand? Did anyone want to say something? All right. So yeah, we just thank God for what we have learned and we pray that we are able to apply this in our day-to-day lives and see victory. Okay, no problem. So would anyone like to add to what we have talked about? If not, we can just pray today and ask the Lord maybe somebody can pray in the class honestly and say, God, everything that we have learned, please help us Lord. We want to use every weapon and we want to defeat the devil. Okay, so let's just go ahead and pray then. Could somebody lead in prayer? Father God, thank you Lord for all that you have taught us from your word. Father God, Father you want us to be overcomers than us Lord God. You desire us to be overcomeers Lord and that is why you fought this victory on the cross for each and every one of us Lord God. Father, you took the price Lord. Father fill us with your word. Give us the knowledge and the revelation Father God that as we walk through the situations in our daily lives, Father that we will use all the weapons that you've given us Lord, your word, the faith that you've instilled in us that the Holy Spirit will trust in the Holy Spirit Lord and by the power of your word that we will overcome everything that comes our way. Father you have equipped us with in every way Father God. Father help us Lord by the power of the Holy Spirit every minute Lord to have this consciousness Lord that we are yours Father God no matter what you will not give us up Father God help us Lord to be careful of our ways trusting in you and always Lord in the power of your might have victory in our lives Lord so that we can be a blessing to many others and also Lord in you we can have a relationship that grows and grows Father that we'll become more like you Father God and we will live for your glory. Thank you Lord for each and every one of us that you have chosen us Lord to learn from your word. Thank you for this blessed time Jesus mighty matchless name we pray. Amen. Amen. Thank you Jacky and thank you each one for being a part of this class today and I really pray that we are able to practically apply whatever we have learned so God bless you and we shall connect on the next call I know that the online students will join me the Bible college students have some I mean the on-campus students have a mission trip that will happen but we will still have the class and so please do join and connect on Friday as well God bless you have a blessed day bye for now thank you


In this segment what we're going to do is we're going to take a look at the boundary layer equations. So what we're going to be doing is a little bit of an order of magnitude analysis. And so we take the governing equations and have a Stokes equations and we simplify them using this order of magnitude approach where we look at large terms small terms and we neglect the smaller terms. And so in the analysis what we're going to be doing we're going to make a couple of assumptions. We're going to neglect gravity so the body forces will be neglected and we're going to assume that we're looking at two-dimensional flow and incompressible as well. So what we're going to begin with if you recall from an earlier lecture we were looking at an airfoil and we were saying that you could apply the boundary layer approximation on to any kind of flat surface and if you zoom in on an airfoil on the top of it it almost looks like a flat plate with the exception that there is a pressure gradient external because the pressure is going to change as you go around the airfoil. But what we're going to do we're going to zoom in on this region here and we're going to consider a section normal to the wall so x is going to be in the wall direction and we're going to examine the boundary layer in this region and then outside of that would be the free stream flow but this is going to be the velocity profile and it will be a function of both position in the x direction as well as normal to the wall in the y direction. So we're going to begin with mass conservation so the continuity equation and we're going to write it out in differential form. If you recall when we did the von Karman momentum integral technique we used control volume analysis now what we're going to do we're going to go in and use differential analysis in order to come up with the boundary equations. These equations we'll see were developed and solved earlier before von Karman's momentum integral technique but for the most part it was only able to be applied to laminar flows and and you needed to do very tedious hand calculations von Karman's technique which came later and was a little quicker and could be applied to laminar or turbulent flow as well. Not that this technique cannot apply to turbulent flow it just gets too complex and it can't be solved. Okay so that's mass conservation and then momentum. Okay so we have those as our equations for the 2d incompressible flow and this is where we are beginning and so the goal that we have here so the goal is to solve for u v and the pressure the external pressure subject to the boundary conditions of no slip along the wall so no flow through the wall and no movement to the fluid at the wall and inlet and exit boundary conditions. Now in order to do this properly what we really should be doing is going through and non-dimensionalizing all of the different values within the equation and then doing a order of magnitude analysis that way. I'm going to skip that and do a little bit of a shortcut here but some of the assumptions that we can make in order to simplify the governing equations are the following. The first one is that the velocity normal to the wall is much less than the velocity along the wall. We saw that when we looked at the previous in the previous segment that we saw for the boundary layer thickness and so von Karman's integral analysis kind of tells us that and people like Prandtl would have known this as well by doing experimentation they would have been able to come up with that assumption. Approximation the other one is the derivative in the streamwise direction or along the flow is much different much smaller than what is happening normal to the wall and so that's another approximation and with that you can go through your governing equations and doing a dimensional non-dimensionalizing and order of magnitude analysis and for the y direction momentum equation we can come up with the following and this is actually something that Prandtl came up with in the early 1900s he realized this that the pressure gradient normal to the wall is zero and consequently pressure was a function of distance along the plate only and this is quite significant because what it was saying was that if we have our boundary layer here it is saying that the pressure out here so let's say we have some pressure outer and we move in towards the wall the pressure on the wall is going to be the same and so there is no pressure gradient in the vertical direction and so the pressure of the external field can be imposed and we'll be using that in a moment and that is kind of significant for one of the parts of the analysis of the boundary layer equations so what that means is the following so the implications of that are quite significant and this was the thing if you recall back to the beginning of the previous lecture we had a segment where we talked about long or Prandtl I should say bringing together the theoretical hydrodynamicists and the experimentalists and uniting them because the theoretical hydrodynamicists had mainly studied inviscid flow they did realize that flows were viscous but it was just too difficult to study and so they would study it assuming viscosity not to be significant and inviscid flow and it brought together the experimentalists who were always studying viscous flow because they're studying real-world flows and brought those two worlds together but with this what we can say is potential flow we could do the potential flow calculations on the outside and then bring that pressure into our boundary layer relations and if we recall for potential flow we had that we had the flow being irrotational and irrotational we said that del cross v had to be equal to zero and also incompressible and for that del dot v is equal to zero and from that would result to Laplace equation then you could use a method of superposition but it also enables us to apply the Bernoulli equation everywhere so not just along a streamline but everywhere in the flow and with that we're going to use that for the boundary layer analysis and specifically we're going to use it to address the dp by dx term we already saw that dp by dy was approximately equal to zero there's no pressure gradient normal to the wall but we still need to deal with the dp by dx term and for that we will use Bernoulli's equation and so if we're dealing with an irrotational flow we can say that this is going to apply anywhere in the flow field we're going to neglect the body force and also any kind of change in height so we're going to assume this to be negligible and now what we're going to do we're going to use Bernoulli's to try to evaluate the dp by dx term we're going to play a little bit of a mathematical trick here so we're after dp by dx so we can take the derivative of it but if we look at the second term we can rewrite it in the following manner and if you were to integrate this back you would get the original one half u0 squared and so we then get that expression and we can isolate for dp by dx in this and given that it's not a function of y i can write it as an ordinary differential and that on the right hand side where u0 is the external flow so if we have again drawing a little picture of the airfoil let's say we're examining the boundary layer here u0 would be the external flow outside in the potential flow area and so that gave us an expression for dp by dx which is good and essentially what it tells us is that we can solve the inviscid flow about a body and then bring that pressure into the boundary layer so when pressure is brought in from the external flow a final assumption that is used in coming up with the boundary layer equations is this one the second derivative of the velocity in the streamwise direction with respect to x is less than with respect to y so with these assumptions and approximations and the pressure field brought in we can then arrive finally at the boundary layer equations again this is not really a very rigorous derivation of them there are more rigorous ways of doing it there's kind of a hand waving approach but we get to the same spot in the end anyways so the boundary layer equations for continuity and momentum all we have for momentum is going to be the x direction equation and this is for steady so I'm getting rid of the time rate of change term and then for the pressure gradient term we can plug in what we came up with from the external flow and then for the viscous shear I'm putting it in terms of shear stress and let me expand on that in a moment here so on the shear stress we will have two different options one if we have laminar flow which we can handle and this is what Blasius solved and the other one is if we have turbulent flows remember I said that you could use these equations for turbulent but the problem is is that we got this guy in here now and this was our Reynolds stress term and that related back to the whole turbulence closure problem it's hard to how impossible to come up with what that is without some sort of hand waving argument so anyways we have those two equations really we will look at both of them as we move on here but it's the first one that Blasius was able to come up with a solution for and going back to what we're after we want to solve for the velocity field in an ideal world and v and this is subject to the following boundary conditions so at the wall we know that the velocity we have no slip and no flow no flow through the wall I'll just write it as no slip for now and at the outer edge of the boundary layer that's when we get to the outer stream which would be the external flow and that could change as a function of position and we refer to that as kind of being a patching between the boundary layer equations and the external potential flow solution so those are the boundary layer equations what we are going to do in the next couple of segments we're going to begin by looking at the solution of Blasius came up with in 1908 for the laminar boundary layer and then we'll go and look at the turbulent flat plate boundary layer we won't really be able to come up with a heck of a lot we'll come up with an expression but it will have experimental data embedded within it and that's where that will proceed so that is the boundary layer equation and we'll now move into solving things of engineering interest using the boundary layer equations


The wolf ran home to his kitchen and he began to cook. Well, really delighted to announce that January the 27th is Family Literacy Day in the province of British Columbia. This is a really important way to recognize the real critical importance of literacy as a real foundational piece for all of our communities, for families, and a way to encourage a focus on reading. So here we are in Richmond at the great public library, my community, but I'm here representing Minister Don McCrae, Minister of Education, to officially announce Family Literacy Day and also to celebrate the opening of a brand new collection of great children's books that are going to help excite our young readers and get them on their way in learning and becoming lifelong readers. There is nothing better than books, so Family Literacy Day, which highlights how important it is to read to children of all ages. Read when you're pregnant, read when they're brand new, read all through their lives, because information is how they make better decisions as they get older. They need the ability to read and analyze information, and there's the joy of books. There's the smell of books, the feel of books, the vision of books, the illustrations in books. Children need that exposure, that stimulation, because it's part of the reading package. Read to your children.


Manage that bump. Well, just a wall scrape Just a little bit of a wall scrape What's up everybody, I'm EvilRabbit. We're here on Car X drift racing online on the Xbox one I do have my Xbox Elite controller hooked up as well as my wheel But today we're gonna take a look at some tuning of this Corolla in the drift back see if we can't get it to handle better so we do have the Corolla so we did Adjust our ride height just a smidge.  We did stiffen the shock and of course we added some more camber in the front as well as Front track and increased our steering angle so bumped them up 17s We increased our tire width to 235s and I think can we go to 255s go to 55s And now we'll go back down. We'll go to 55s in the rear to 35s in the front Drop that profile down a little bit Now we'll keep it beefy and we increased the front track so With that there we're gonna quickly run into the test drive of this car trying to get this in the drift spec to handle way Better it did handle pretty amazing when I was on turbo spec, but the drift spec has a lot more power We do have some cash. I believe it's less. We might be buying another car, but For sake of testing purposes We'll see if that increase in Tire width gives me a little more traction Actually So it does give me a lot more traction Well, a little bit more steering lock a lot more traction for sure It just handle quite quite well now. I Believe we are 195s before on this car So now we got some big beefy to 255s in the rear Love more camber caught kick it back that way. We're gonna have to maybe make some other adjustments But I think it's actually not too bad for Throwing a first basic to down this car. We'll left a break there. Oh, yeah We got much more speed We're able to hold it through that section So I think we should actually go run this and see if maybe I might grab my keyboard Wrong controller rip fail and see if maybe we can grab first gold on that so we're going to Leave the car. Do you want to save changes? Yes, we leave it. How's this we're gonna go run it again and see how this affects us in our scores because if you remember last episode we were at like 4200 in our drift race we do got 40k though.  Our best is 57,000 in the drift spec. So our goal is to beat that fifty seven thousand fifty seven hundred here for today's episode It was a mild tuning I say mild because it was a quick throw a bunch of things on there Don't know exactly what works yet but this is Where we are at Jordan Forth first initiation Much more grip clutch kick that of course we've failed that a little bit Kind of got lost in the sauce with the steering angle a little bit sketchy Didn't think we were gonna make that we can somewhat managed to come out of that I don't think we are doing As good as we were last time that quick oscillation of the back kind of gets me and I think I need to Do some tweaking on Suspension a little bit more I should have been in for it. Oh So we're gonna give that a another try because I think I know what I'm doing wrong I think I'm just throwing the wheel a little bit too hard is very different on a wheel because when I see an episode on Controller and see the difference let me know on the comment section down below if you guys want to see it on Controller to see the difference between how the car reacts on a wheel versus on a controller It's got to be it much smoother on on the wheel transitions Like there and use the brakes To help with transitions the left foot brake action going on right now in this Corolla Can't break to get that going. Oh transition there.  I think I need to rework the suspension stiffness and stuff. I don't want to throw myself in that oscillation Back and forth again. Oh There it is So close to beating our old score though. We didn't beat our old score Managed to jump There we go. So the car handles so much better Little 540 at the end for style the car so much better right now. We're just doing those modifications. So we were able to get Just under silver we probably could have gotten silver. So let's go back and Chains the suspension. I think I may have gone the wrong way With the actual suspension, so we're gonna go back and change that up and see About tweaking this Dino stand So I'm gonna want to we're gonna go opposite direction We're gonna go opposite direction I'm pretty sure we should probably throw in some tow some negative tow actually and Then we will see how this goes So let's go back Yes, safe changes Back one more. We're gonna do one more here Then we might buy another car or another track because I know we have some cars unlocked now And I believe one of them is one of my s13 flippy headlights 240s, which you know, we got to have and build on this game You guys are enjoying car extra for a sure online on the Xbox one. Let me know down in the comments Think I'm finally starting to get the handle of the game on the wheel That kind of helps Oh, that doesn't help with that though. I mean, that's a reverse entry that should have counted The tow actually does is definitely doing a bit of a change in the stiffness of the rear. It's definitely making Transitions more manageable. Oh What it makes those jumps very bumpy? Yeah, I think we should have probably kept it the way we were at. Oh, no Clutch kick flick we're gonna finish this off because I want to get More cash We got a loss that so we are gonna buy a new car if we can Car more comfortable driving in well I went to more comfortable in but car that you would more likely see me driving in another games Manage that bump. Well Just a wall scrape Just a little bit of a wall scrape nothing super crazy we managed to keep it though All right, so let's go back to the main menu Switch over to the controller here. If you guys want to see like I said controller verse wheel Let me know down in the comments. I will do it, but now it's time to buy a new car We got 56 grand. Let's go to the garage. Go to catalog. I believe we can buy some tier two cars We can and there it is the 180 sx We can't get into the z's yet or the other s13 Man, where's the 14? It's all the way in class 4. All right. Well We're gonna buy a class 2 and it's gonna be the 180 with the flippies. Yes buy Can we We can throw. Oh, we can throw the turbo kit on it 210 horsepower stock 313 with a turbo 530 614 all right. Well, let's go drive it stock first and See see what we can do with the stock 240 on the parking lot a we're gonna get into some more tracks and stuff like that Here in later episodes, but a new car the 200 and some horsepower. We'll see what we can do on it. Hopefully It'll be able to Keep a slide Well, we're about to find out. Oh boy Stock angle 240. Oh the body roll. Oh And lack there of angle lack there of angle kit But I guess it's cat holding its own. Oh We need to throw we need to throw some parts of the tune on this car the body roll is severe in this car Just a wall tap. They're just banging third gear. Oh, yeah This thing needs massive suspension modification What you know what? Stock 180 sx 240 sx s13 whatever you call it where you're from It's definitely fun So I think this will do it here for this episode here on car extra racing online here on the Xbox one platform Which you guys found me in all social media all of which found in the description box below and all of car X's Social media which will be down there as well. And as always I think guys come back and watching. I'm even rabbit I'll see you guys on the track


I realize that one of the reasons we are in burnout as a leader is because I keep making things my responsibility to the aunt and you get burnt out as a parent or as a spouse or as a in the role in life that you have if you keep making things your responsibilities that aren't and think that's your job you'll have burnout and think it's legitimate and it's not.


U.S. Marine Corps students with the Assault Amphibious School. Drive Amphibious Combat Vehicles and review how to, alternatively, fuel Amphibious Combat Vehicles during a basic land driving course at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California, November 29, 2023. The Assault Amphibious School launched the new course to train Marines to be proficient in operating the Amphibious Combat Vehicles. You are so for today. Staff Sergeant Franco is going to be the OIC. Today we have land driving. All right? Safety is priority. All right? So at any point in time, you guys cannot feel safe. You're going to stop the vehicle, put it into... Yes, sir. All right? That is not going to happen up the hill. If you don't feel comfortable going up the hill, you're just going to have to deal with it because how do you expect an instructor to take over if you guys are up the hill? Hill, do not. Yes, sir. Okay, boom. So now the vehicle is prepared. Step by step. Step by step. What do I do? You need to turn the power on.  Go to the master switch on the vehicle. Okay. Then what's the last step? Okay. Okay. What does it need to be on? Uh, like 24 solid. Okay. Uh, you press the check button on the... No, not yet.


SNES drunk Welcome back to boss time on level two here for XLA But before we do that we need to get underneath these giant trash compactor things that want to crush us We're also not with our best weapon That was close there at least not my preferred weapon This weapons, okay. The other one is Yeah, it's all right, I guess it looks a lot stronger than it really is Maybe that's just me and here we've got This scary ass looking thing Goddamn It's moon not quite moonwalking, but it's backpedaling presumably because we're firing at it, but we could stop firing and it would still go backwards for some reason and Till it stops Yeah, it's the hitbox on this thing is really tricky like I'm not sure you're supposed to hit it like from the front somehow Like right there you see how it like makes that sound and I'm really not sure like right there, but it's it's constantly moving around and it's really jittery Really the biggest threat of death against this guy is accidentally hitting the ceiling But he's got a very predictable attack pattern I don't know if his stuff changes on different difficulty levels if he throws more projectiles or what But come on get back here. What are you doing? Yeah, if he throws more of those like slow motion Sunset rider style bullets there or what? Or if his hitbox is even smaller see this is his main attack here.      It doesn't really matter I don't think I don't think that's you know, I don't think you have to take that out in order to Beat this guy, but yeah, let's take it out anyway Why is it that whenever they For whatever reason video game developers have managed to absolutely nail that sound When you right there when you manage to get Damage on an enemy right there and it makes that like almost like buzzing sound like that is so satisfying That right there like I just love that sound. Whoa, that was close Damn Like how did they know that that sound would be the right sound for that particular instance? But it just whatever it is it just works Sound design and music are things I've always been interested in with from video games ever since I was a kid Am I ever gonna play that's the thing about this boss is that it takes a long fucking time to beat him My my last guy here for this continues.  Oh shit When he moves all the way to the front of the Viewing area there When I played this and my girlfriend was watching she said this boss music sounded like to petch mode on crack We're big to petch mode fans Come on already That was too close Suppose it doesn't matter with the projectiles because I've got two weapons I can take three more hits from those before I die but collision with the ceiling or with the boss No good Or with that Laser right there. That's not good to Come on already. There we go. Thank you for dying really appreciate it Thank you for taking the time out of your day to crumple into a smoldering mass of iron and metal and Steel and whatever else So onward ho Do we get another weapon for this one? I believe we do yes, we do So we get this. It's called a needle cracker I never I never really looked at the weapon names up there before until now interesting This this is a homing gun of sorts, but it's a lot more powerful than the other weapon in its place And this music is kind of goofy. It's like I don't know It's just it's not like the rest of the music in this game This music kind of like swing your partner around around it. It's got like a frickin Swing vibe to it almost It's got the Burundi drums like how Adam Ants never mind never I'm just rambling.  Well, we're gonna use our first continue Get through this god forsaken level This is probably my least favorite level in the game because it's the least interesting It's really not a lot going on here. I mean, I guess the aspect of Blasting your way through this PVC pipe maze whatever it's supposed to be it's kind of neat But the boss is kind of blah The terrain is kind of blah the music is kind of goofy. I Like the other levels a lot more It's pretty hard though.  I should have switched guns before that part It's another aspect of strategy in this game is that if you come across a part like that that you know You'll have trouble with and you'll you're gonna get take a hit switch guns to a gun that you don't ever use For a much less powerful gun and absorb the hit with that gun so you lose that weapon It won't be a big deal Where am I going? Okay? There we go Come on really. Oh just barely made that What's coming up here? I honestly don't remember is it the octopus things?   This is bad Circle around. Yeah, see you can take three hits from projectiles and you can still fire.  Oh free guy cool There we go. So slow moving level to I Guess it's on par with the pace of the other level But I think side-scrollers side-scrolling levels are more pleasant when they When they're a little slower paced, I don't know why that is whoa shit. That was really close That was also very close. I should be a little more careful Think we got another maze we got a blast our way through here and then it's the boss if I remember correctly Excuse me more of these things I guess There's nothing more frustrating than a shoot-em-up.   It's bad Okay Is this the witch hat boss? I think it is looks like a the spaceship looks like a witch's hat at first And then it morphs into something else. Yep Okay Damn it number two not good. You have to kind of go the opposite Headed there we go. Now. I'm in a good rhythm here There we go Look out one one weepin Now he goes into his second form.    I Don't want to do this whole level again Yes Excellent. There we go. All right. We're gonna call this an episode. Thanks for watching and have a great rest of your day


An area of our plant that we have yet to visit is our heart-top lamination and heart-top rigging areas. So let's take a deep dive on this episode of Behind the Glass.


Madness. This is freedom! And movie reviews have come to freedom. Three big channels have joined us who can give you the latest movies and check out these clips. It starts off with the origin story of Xerxes and then moves on to the events that happened after 300. The main character in this movie is actually Artemisia.  Some of you have been asking for non-gaming content. Well, here it is. This is not copyright because they are doing reviews, critical, educational, transformative works, and using only clips, not showing, like, half the movie. Let's watch another clip. Movie trilogies. Why are there so goddamn many of them? I mean, it's pretty clear that movie directors must have wet dreams about the number three, because the trilogy seems to be the preferred palm-off hotel in the multi-film narrative these days. I personally think only two film trilogies exist, where all three films are so good, people have to either think really hard or give up on choosing a favorite. One is Toy Story. The other? Well, you read the title of the video, right? Now, the two towers is easily one of my favorite sequels of all time. I remember going to the cinema to see this when I was 11, and it just blew my mind. Do you make movie reviews or other special content that you feel should get featured on this special partner spotlight episode of The George Show? This is the first one, and there will be more coming. Let's listen to one more final clip of a movie review channel partnered with Freedom. After Earth is a work of fart, and it shouldn't have come as much of a surprise to anybody paying attention to the production. But alas, we live in a society where people watch movies based on who appears in the trailer. And who doesn't love Jayden? I mean, who doesn't love Will Smith? From 2002 until now, his lowest grossing film still made over $150 million, and most of them made more than double that amount. He's kind of a cash magnet to say the least. Considering the marketing budget was $100 million, they just barely broke even. Wasn't received too well critically either. I mean, it's only got six Razzi nominations. I look forward to seeing your cool ideas and help you promote them so that you get the audience and the exposure that you deserve. Click the first video for a fireside chat with George where he shares our future and how he grew from $20,000 to $120,000 in just one month. And click the second video to see how to monetize all of your videos with just a few clicks to enable all ad formats and monetize in all countries.
