ANNOUNCER: THE FOLLOWING PROGRAM IS PAID FOR BY
THE FRIENDS AND PARTNERS OF JOYCE MEYER MINISTRIES.
JOYCE: I UNDERSTAND WHAT IT'S LIKE TO FEEL LIKE YOU
CAN'T GO ON ONE MORE DAY, BUT LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, WHEN
YOU FEEL LIKE GIVING UP THE MOST THAT'S WHEN YOUR BREAKTHROUGH IS
THE CLOSEST.
SO, I'M JUST ENCOURAGING YOU, DON'T YOU QUIT AND DON'T YOU
GIVE UP.
BECAUSE GOD HAS GOT A GOOD PLAN FOR YOU.
HE'S ON YOUR SIDE AND YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE--ACTUALLY YOU'VE
ALREADY GOT THE VICTORY, YOU'RE JUST WALKING
TOWARD IT RIGHT NOW.
GINGER: AS WE WALK THROUGH EACH NEW DAY, WE ALL HAVE
QUESTIONS.
THEY'RE JUST PART OF LIFE.
BUT DID YOU KNOW THERE ARE ANSWERS FOR YOU?
GOD SAYS WHEN WE LOOK, WE'LL FIND HIM.
HE'S NOT TRYING TO HIDE ANYTHING.
SO, TOGETHER WE ARE DISCOVERING LIFE'S EVERYDAY ANSWERS.
GINGER: HEY, THERE, WELCOME TO "EVERYDAY ANSWERS."
WELL, IT'S A BASIC HUMAN NEED.
WE ALL WANT SOMEONE TO CARE FOR US, SOMEONE THAT WE CAN DEPEND
ON BECAUSE WE'RE JUST NOT MEANT TO BE ALONE.
OUR QUESTION TODAY HAS A LOT TO DO WITH THAT.
THIS COMES FROM ERIC AND HE SAYS, "DOES GOD KNOW WHAT I'M
GOING THROUGH, DOES HE HAVE PLANS FOR ME OR NOT?"
THAT'S SUCH AN HONEST QUESTION, ERIC AND WE REALLY APPRECIATE
YOU SHARING THAT WITH US AND SO TODAY, WE'RE GOING TO TACKLE
THAT QUESTION.
THERE'S A SCRIPTURE THAT YOU MAY KNOW.
IT SAYS, "THOUGH I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF
DEATH, I WILL FEAR NO EVIL FOR YOU ARE WITH ME.
YOUR ROD AND YOUR STAFF, THEY COMFORT ME."
THAT VERSE IS ONE OF THE MOST WELL KNOWN VERSES IN THE BIBLE.
IT'S CONTAINED IN ONE OF THE MOST WELL KNOWN PASSAGES
IN GOD'S WORD, THE 23RD PSALM.
AND TODAY, JOYCE BREAKS DOWN THAT PSALM INTO HOW IT
SO BEAUTIFULLY APPLIES TO OUR LIVES.
AND DEFINITELY ANSWERS THAT QUESTION.
IN FACT, THERE'S SO MUCH GREATNESS IN THAT SHORT CHAPTER
OF THE BIBLE THAT JOYCE TOOK FOUR SESSIONS IN ONE WEEKEND
TO TEACH ON IT.
SO, TODAY WE WILL SHARE KEY MOMENTS FROM THOSE TEACHINGS AS
SHE ANSWERS THIS BIG QUESTION: CAN I DEPEND ON GOD?
JOYCE: "THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD, I SHALL NOT WANT."
SHEEP AND SHEPHERDS.
ANALOGIES IN THE BIBLE.
JESUS IS REFERRED TO AS THE SHEPHERD AND WE ARE REFERRED
TO AS HIS SHEEP.
A CHILD PROUDLY SAYS, "THIS IS MY DAD."
AND PUTS AN EMPHASIS ON, "MY DAD."
AND I BELIEVE WHEN DAVID WROTE THIS PSALM, HE WOULD HAVE SAID
IT MORE LIKE, "THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD."
AND I WANT TONIGHT--REALLY MY GOAL IN TONIGHT'S TEACHING IS
FOR YOU TO COME INTO A PLACE OF FEELING SAFE.
EVERYBODY WANTS TO FEEL SAFE AND ESPECIALLY WOMEN WANT TO FEEL
SAFE, THEY WANT TO FEEL TAKEN CARE OF.
THAT'S JUST IN OUR NATURE TO WANT TO FEEL SAFE.
I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT YOU'RE CARED FOR, THAT GOD HAS A PLAN
FOR YOUR LIFE, THAT HE'S NOT MAD AT YOU, THAT HE KNEW EVERYTHING
THAT YOU WERE GOING TO DO WRONG BEFORE YOU EVER EVEN CAME INTO
RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.
AND HE ALREADY IN HIS PROVIDENTIAL CARE PROVIDED
FOR ALL OF IT.
GOD'S GOT YOU COVERED.
AMEN?
GOD'S GOT YOUR BACK.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: "THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD,"
I BELIEVE DAVID SAID.
I DON'T WANT US JUST TO THINK ABOUT A GOD WAY OFF IN THE SKY
SOMEWHERE BUT HE WANTS TO HAVE A PERSONAL INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP
WITH US.
THE DIFFERENCE IN RELIGION AND RELATIONSHIP IS WHAT I
JUST SAID.
RELIGION ALWAYS LOOKS FOR GOD SOMEWHERE AND TRIES TO GET TO
GOD THROUGH WORKS AND EFFORT.
AND SOME CERTAIN KIND OF BEHAVIOR.
"ARE YOU A CHRISTIAN?" "WELL, I GO TO CHURCH."
"WELL, THAT'S NOT WHAT I ASKED YOU.
THAT DOESN'T MAKE YOU A CHRISTIAN."
I CAN SIT IN MY GARAGE FOR A YEAR AND THAT WILL NEVER MAKE
ME A CAR.
JUST BECAUSE YOU SIT IN CHURCH THAT DOESN'T MAKE YOU
A CHRISTIAN, AMEN?
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: A CHRISTIAN IS NOT EVEN NECESSARILY SOMEONE
THAT DOES GOOD WORKS.
I MEAN, YES, WE AS CHRISTIANS WE SHOULD DO GOOD WORKS BUT THAT
DOING GOOD WORKS DOESN'T PROVE TO ANYBODY THAT I'M A CHRISTIAN.
THE THING THAT MAKES US A CHRISTIAN IS THAT WE HAVE
RECEIVED JESUS CHRIST INTO OUR HEART TO BE OUR LORD,
TO BE OUR SAVIOR.
WE BELIEVE THAT HE IS THE SON OF GOD, GOD HIMSELF, WHO TOOK OUR
SIN UPON HIMSELF, WHO TOOK OUR PUNISHMENT, WHO DIED IN OUR
PLACE, WHO ROSE FROM THE DEAD, IS SEATED AT THE RIGHT HAND
OF GOD THE FATHER.
AND AS WE RECEIVE HIM HE COMES TO BE INTIMATE AND PERSONAL,
TO LIVE INSIDE OF US TO HELP US WITH EVERYTHING.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: A SHEPHERD IS A MANAGER,
A CARETAKER, AN OWNER, A PROTECTOR, AND A PROVIDER.
LET ME SAY THOSE WORDS AGAIN.
A MANAGER, YES HE WANTS TO MANAGE YOUR LIFE.
A CARETAKER, AN OWNER, A SHEPHERD BUYS HIS SHEEP,
HE DOESN'T JUST GET THEM FREE.
AND THE BIBLE SAYS IN 1 CORINTHIANS 6:20,
"YOU ARE BOUGHT WITH A PRICE.
YOU ARE PURCHASED WITH A PRECIOUSNESS AND PAID FOR,
MADE HIS OWN.
SO THEN HONOR GOD AND BRING GLORY TO HIM IN YOUR BODY."
A SHEPHERD BUYS HIS SHEEP WITH MONEY.
JESUS BOUGHT US WITH HIS BLOOD.
HE DIED AND PAID FOR US TO BELONG TO HIM.
YOU ARE AN EXPENSIVE SHEEP.
SHEEP DO NOT INSTINCTIVELY TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES LIKE SOME
ANIMALS DO.
THERE'S A REASON WHY JESUS REFERS TO HIS CHILDREN AS SHEEP.
SHEEP NEED ENDLESS ATTENTION.
AND A GREAT DEAL OF SPECIAL CARE.
THEY ARE PRONE TO DISEASE AND PARASITES, REPRESENTING SIN,
FAILURE, WEAKNESS, FLAWS, AND ALL KINDS OF MESSES.
THEY ARE VERY FEARFUL, TIMID, STUPID--I GOT IT OUT OF
THE BOOK, ABOUT SHEEP, A SHEEP BOOK--AND THEY ARE STUBBORN.
A JACKRABBIT CAN STAMPEDE AN ENTIRE HERD OF SHEEP.
NO WONDER HE CALLS US SHEEP.
BUT THE SHEPHERD LOVES THE SHEEP AND HE TAKES CARE OF THE SHEEP.
THE SHEPHERD NEVER REALLY LEAVES THE SHEEP.
HE'S ALWAYS THERE TO TAKE CARE OF THEM.
EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE FAULTS THE SHEPHERD LOVES THEM AND
DELIGHTS IN TAKING CARE OF THEM.
SO, HERE'S THE DEAL, IN KINGDOM ECONOMY EITHER GOD DOES IT
OR WE DO IT.
WE ARE PARTNERS WITH GOD AND HE WILL GIVE US THINGS TO DO BUT
THE PART WE CAN'T DO WE NEED TO BACK OFF AND LET GOD DO.
THAT'S THE POINT WHERE WE SAY, "I'M NOT GOING TO FIGHT IT
ANYMORE.
I'M GOING TO PRAY ABOUT IT.
I'M GOING TO TRUST GOD.
I'M GOING TO TRUST HIS METHODS.
I'M GOING TO TRUST HIS TIMING.
I'M GOING TO TRUST HIS WAYS AND IF GOD CAN'T GIVE IT TO ME, THEN
I HAVE NO BUSINESS WITH IT."
COME ON, I SAID, "IF GOD CAN'T GIVE IT TO ME, THEN I HAVE
NO BUSINESS WITH IT."
ONE MORE TIME, "IF GOD CAN'T GIVE IT TO ME, THEN I HAVE NO
BUSINESS WITH IT, IT MUST NOT BE THE RIGHT THING FOR ME."
AMEN?
GINGER: WE NEED THE LORD'S GUIDANCE AND WE CAN DEPEND ON
HIM THAT HE WANTS TO BE THERE TO GIVE IT TO US BUT WE HAVE TO
CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT.
THAT WAS PART ONE OF FOUR TEACHINGS ON PSALM 23 AND AS WE
SAID THERE'S SO MUCH TO SAY ABOUT GOD AS OUR SHEPHERD AND I
JUST LOVE THAT.
THAT MEANS HE'S ALWAYS THERE WATCHING OVER US
AND HE'S DEPENDABLE.
SO, LET'S JOIN JOYCE IN HER SECOND TEACHING ON PSALM 23 AS
SHE TALKS ABOUT RESTING IN GOD.
JOYCE: "HE MAKES ME LIE DOWN IN [FRESH, TENDER]
GREEN PASTURES."
THAT'S REFERRING TO ENTERING THE REST OF GOD.
HEBREWS 4 TEACHES US ABOUT A SUPERNATURAL, A SABBATH REST.
IT'S NOT A REST FROM ACTIVITY, BUT IT'S A REST IN ACTIVITY.
IN OTHER WORDS, I'M WORKING UP HERE AND WHAT I DO IS A LOT OF
WORK, BUT I REST IN MY WORK BECAUSE INTERNALLY I KNOW THAT
IT'S NOT MY RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE YOU LIKE ME AND MAKE YOU
LIKE WHAT I SAY, AND THAT'S GOD'S THING.
I'VE DONE MY PART, I'VE STUDIED, I'VE PRAYED, I'VE SHOWN UP,
I'M PREPARED.
SO, WE CAN ENTER THE REST OF GOD WHEN WE KNOW WHAT TO DO AND WE
KNOW WHAT NOT TO TRY TO DO.
AMEN?
AND A LOT OF TIMES WHAT WE DO IS WE DON'T DO
WHAT WE SHOULD DO AND WE TRY TO DO WHAT ONLY GOD CAN DO AND
THEN WE JUST GET ALL MESSED UP IN DOING IT.
ENTERING THE REST OF GOD, IT'S A BEAUTIFUL PLACE BECAUSE WHEN
YOU'RE IN THE REST OF GOD, YOU TRUST THAT GOD'S GOING TO
TAKE CARE OF THINGS.
YOU DON'T KNOW HOW HE'S GOING TO DO IT, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT
HE'S GOING TO DO.
YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN HE'S GOING TO DO IT AND YOU'RE REALLY NOT
EVEN ALL THAT CONCERNED ABOUT IT BECAUSE YOU HAVE THIS FAITH THAT
GOD IS FAITHFUL AND HE WILL NOT FAIL YOU AND LET YOU DOWN.
SO, WHEN YOU ENTER THE REST OF GOD, WHATEVER THAT MIGHT BE
ABOUT THE CHANGES YOU NEED IN YOUR LIFE , THAT CHANGES YOU
WANT TO SEE IN PEOPLE, THE SALVATION OF YOUR LOVED ONES,
YOUR FINANCES.
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, NO MATTER WHAT KIND OF A PROBLEM
YOU HAVE, GOD'S GOT AN ANSWER.
HE'S GOT A PLAN.
BUT WHEN WE'RE ALL FRUSTRATED AND UPSET, WE CAN'T RECEIVE
THE GUIDANCE OF GOD.
SO, WE NEED TO ENTER THE REST OF GOD.
AND I LIKE THIS, VERSE 2 BECAUSE IT SAYS "HE MAKES ME LIE DOWN IN
GREEN PASTURES."
SO, HERE'S THE THING, WE CAN EITHER CHOOSE TO OR HE CAN
MAKE US LIE DOWN.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT, BUT I'M SURE SOME OF YOU
HAVE BEEN MADE TO LIE DOWN.
YOU'VE GOT IN A PREDICAMENT WHERE YOU ABSOLUTELY NO CHOICE
BUT TO WAIT ON GOD.
SO, "HE MAKES ME LIE DOWN IN GREEN PASTURES.
HE LEADS ME BESIDE THE STILL AND THE RESTFUL WATERS.
HE REFRESHES AND RESTORES MY LIFE, MY SELF, MY SOUL."
NOW, WE'RE TRI-PART BEINGS, WE ARE SPIRITUAL BEINGS FIRST
AND FOREMOST, WE HAVE A SOUL AND WE LIVE IN OUR BODIES.
OUR SOUL IS OUR MIND, HOW WE THINK, OUR WILL, WHAT WE WANT,
THE CHOICES WE MAKE, AND OUR EMOTIONS.
AND I THINK MOST OF US, IF WE'RE HONEST WOULD SAY THAT WE
PROBABLY RECOGNIZE THAT PEOPLE ARE LED MORE BY HOW THEY FEEL
PROBABLY THAN ANY OTHER SINGLE THING.
WHAT THEY THINK AND WHAT THEY FEEL.
I ALWAYS CALL IT, "I WANT, I THINK, I FEEL.
I WANT, I THINK, I FEEL."
WE SPEND MORE TIME TELLING GOD AND EVERYBODY ELSE WHAT WE WANT,
WHAT WE THINK AND WHAT WE FEEL.
AND GOD WANTS TO RENEW OUR MIND, TEACH US HOW TO THINK THE WAY
HE THINKS.
HE WANTS US TO USE OUR FREE WILL TO CHOOSE HIS WILL.
FREE WILL IS A GREAT GIFT BUT IT IS ALSO A GREAT RESPONSIBILITY.
HE COULD HAVE EASILY CREATED US WITH NO FREE WILL, WHERE WE HAD
NO CHOICE BUT TO DO WHAT HE WANTED US TO.
BUT THAT'S NOT RELATIONSHIP.
SO, HE GAVE US THIS AMAZING FREE WILL AND NOW HE SAYS, "I
SET BEFORE YOU LIFE AND DEATH, GOOD AND EVIL, HERE'S WHAT I'D
LIKE YOU TO CHOOSE AND IF YOU DO, EVERYTHING WILL GO WELL
WITH YOU."
SO, WE GROW IN OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, TO LEARN TO THINK
LIKE HIM.
TO LEARN TO USE OUR WILL TO CHOOSE HIS WILL.
AND THEN WE LEARN HOW TO FEEL THE HEART OF GOD AND TO FEEL
THE THINGS THAT HE FEELS.
AND TO ENJOY FEELINGS WHEN THEY'RE GOOD BUT REALIZE THAT
THEY'RE FICKLE AND NOT LET THEM RULE US AND CONTROL US.
SO, IT'S A LIFETIME JOB.
HOW MANY OF YOU KNOW THAT'S JUST NOT SOMETHING--
THAT YOU GET BORN AGAIN AND NEXT WEEK, THAT'S ALL
STRAIGHTENED OUT.
THAT IS A LIFETIME JOB.
AND THAT'S GOOD.
THAT'S GOOD.
WE'RE IN A PROCESS.
AND I'LL TELL YOU THE TRUTH, I'VE LEARNED TO ENJOY IT.
I'VE LEARNED TO ENJOY MY WALK WITH GOD.
THIS MAYBE SOUNDS A LITTLE ODD TO YOU BUT I'VE ACTUALLY LEARNED
TO ENJOY IT WHEN I RECEIVE CORRECTION FROM GOD BECAUSE IT
LETS ME KNOW THAT HE CARES ABOUT ME.
IF GOD DIDN'T CARE ABOUT US, THEN HE'D JUST LEAVE US ALONE.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: NOW, IT'S EASIER FOR ME TO
RECEIVE CORRECTION FROM GOD THAN FROM PEOPLE, I WILL SAY THAT.
SO, IT'S REALLY BEST TO GET IT FIRST FROM GOD BECAUSE IF YOU
DON'T TAKE IT FROM HIM, HE WILL ULTIMATELY REVERT TO WORKING
THROUGH PEOPLE TO TELL YOU THE SAME THING HE TRIED TO TELL YOU
12 TIMES THAT YOU IGNORED.
AMEN.
SO HE WANTS TO RENEW OUR MIND, WANTS US TO USE OUR WILL TO
CHOOSE HIS WILL, AND LEARN TO--LEARN THAT FEELINGS ARE
REALLY NEITHER GOOD NOR BAD.
I MEAN, THEY CAN FEEL GOOD, THEY CAN FEEL BAD BUT WE JUST HAVE TO
LEARN THAT YOU REALLY HAVE TO STOP LETTING YOUR FEELINGS VOTE.
I REMEMBER ONE MORNING WAKING UP AND I FELT SO BAD I JUST
THOUGHT, "I CAN NOT PUT ONE FOOT IN FRONT OF THE OTHER ONE.
I JUST CAN'T DO IT."
NOW, A LOT OF MY PROBLEM WAS STRESS AND I DIDN'T YET KNOW
WHAT THAT WAS.
I WAS WORKING TOO HARD, I WASN'T RESTING.
I NEEDED TO BE MADE TO LIE DOWN IN GREEN PASTURES.
SO PART OF IT WAS MY OWN FAULT, YOU KNOW.
A LOT OF IT WAS MY OWN FAULT.
I WAS SAYING YES TO THINGS I SHOULD HAVE SAID NO TO AND JUST
HAD A LOT THAT I HAD TO LEARN.
BUT I REMEMBER ONE MORNING WAKING UP FEELING SO BAD I JUST
THOUGHT, "OH MY GOSH, I CAN'T STAND IT."
AND I REMEMBER I WENT OUTSIDE AND SAT ON THE LITTLE PORCH THAT
WE HAD, LOOKED OUT AT THE TREES AND I SAID--I KNEW I KIND OF HAD
A DECISION TO MAKE BECAUSE ONE PART OF YOU THINKS,
"I CAN'T DO THIS ANYMORE."
ANYBODY KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT?
AND ANOTHER PART, THAT PART INSIDE IS SAYING, "BUT YOU DON'T
WANT TO GIVE UP."
I CAN'T DO THIS ANYMORE BUT I DON'T WANT TO GIVE UP.
AND I REMEMBER JUST SAYING OUT LOUD, "GOD, IF I'VE ONLY GOT
ONE OUNCE OF STRENGTH, I'M GIVING IT TO YOU."
AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M STILL HERE.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: AND I'M NOT, I'M NOT JUST TELLING YOU
HOW WONDERFUL I AM.
I'M TRYING TO ENCOURAGE YOU THAT WE HAVE TO MAKE THE DECISIONS.
THESE ARE NOT THINGS THAT SOMEBODY ELSE CAN COME ALONG.
THESE ARE NOT DECISIONS THAT SOMEBODY ELSE CAN MAKE FOR YOU,
THESE ARE DECISIONS THAT ONLY YOU CAN MAKE.
AND, YOU KNOW, OBVIOUSLY I'M NOT JUST PREACHING TO THE PEOPLE
IN THIS ROOM TODAY.
I'M SHARING THIS MESSAGE NOT ONLY FOR YOU BUT FOR THE PEOPLE
WATCHING ALL OVER THE WORLD BY TV AND I MEAN THERE ARE SO MANY
MESSES IN SO MANY PEOPLE'S LIVES AND SO MUCH PAIN.
I MEAN, SICKNESS AND FINANCIAL NEED AND RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS
AND JUST ALL KINDS OF THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON IN
PEOPLE'S LIVES.
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, I FEEL YOU.
I GET IT.
I UNDERSTAND WHAT IT'S LIKE TO FEEL LIKE YOU CAN'T GO ON
ONE MORE DAY.
BUT, LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE GIVING UP
THE MOST THAT'S WHEN YOUR BREAKTHROUGH IS THE CLOSEST.
SO, I'M JUST ENCOURAGING YOU DON'T YOU QUIT AND DON'T YOU
GIVE UP BECAUSE GOD HAS GOT A GOOD PLAN FOR YOU.
HE'S ON YOUR SIDE.
AND YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE--ACTUALLY YOU'VE ALREADY
GOT THE VICTORY, YOU'RE JUST WALKING TOWARD IT RIGHT NOW.
YOU KNOW, GOD DOESN'T USE THESE ANALOGIES JUST FOR SOMETHING
TO DO.
HE CALLS JESUS OUR GOOD SHEPHERD BECAUSE THERE'S LESSONS WE CAN
LEARN FROM STUDYING A SHEPHERD'S RELATIONSHIP TO HIS SHEEP.
HE CALLS US SHEEP BECAUSE THERE'S LESSONS WE CAN LEARN
FROM STUDYING THE NATURE OF SHEEP.
WHY DON'T YOU JUST TAKE A LITTLE BIT OF TIME, I MEAN,
YOU CAN LOOK IT UP.
YOU CAN FIND ANYTHING YOU WANT NOW IN AN INSTANT ONLINE.
JUST LOOK UP THE NATURE OF SHEEP AND SEE WHAT YOU GET.
YOU'LL RECOGNIZE YOURSELF PRETTY QUICK.
[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
JOYCE: I RECOGNIZE MYSELF.
ALRIGHT.
SOME SHEEP ARE KNOWN TO BE CAST DOWN MORE THAN OTHERS AND ONLY
THE DILIGENCE OF THE SHEPHERD HELPS THEM SURVIVE.
WHEN A SHEEP IS CAST DOWN, PREDATORS MOVE IN.
FOR THE SHEEP IT'S BUZZARDS, VULTURES, DOGS, COYOTES,
AND COUGARS.
FOR US, IT'S THE DEVIL.
HE MOVES IN BECAUSE A SHEEP THAT IS CAST DOWN, DEPRESSED,
DISCOURAGED, DOWNTRODDEN, SAD, LOST THEIR JOY, IS EASY PREY
FOR THE ENEMY.
THE DEVIL DOES EVERYTHING HE CAN TO KEEP US SAD AND MAD BUT GOD
WANTS US GLAD.
BECAUSE REALLY AND TRULY OUR JOY IS FOUND IN STRENGTH.
GINGER: YOU KNOW WHATEVER YOU'RE GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW,
JUST REMEMBER WHAT JOYCE IS SAYING ABOUT NOT GIVING UP
BECAUSE I CAN GUARANTEE YOU THAT GOD WILL NOT GIVE UP ON YOU.
AND YOU CAN DEPEND ON HIM.
WE'LL GET BACK TO EVEN MORE OF JOYCE'S ANSWER FOR TODAY BUT
FIRST LET'S SEE HOW ONE FRIEND ON SOCIAL MEDIA HAS EXPERIENCED
GOD AS A LOVING SHEPHERD.
THIS IS ALICIA AND SHE SAYS, "MY YOUNGEST DAUGHTER WAS IN
A HOSPITAL FOR 8 MONTHS.
ONE DAY I PRAYED, 'GOD I'M TIRED OF CRYING ALREADY, WHATEVER YOU
WANT WITH MY CHILD, YOUR WILL BE DONE.'
THE FOLLOWING DAYS, MY DAUGHTER SHOWED IMPROVEMENTS
AND STARTED GETTING BETTER.
SHE WENT THROUGH REHAB, WE HAD TO RETEACH HER TO SWALLOW,
SPEAK, SIT AND WALK.
SHE GOT WELL, WENT BACK TO SCHOOL AND IS NOW WORKING
FULL TIME.
GOD ANSWERED MY PRAYERS WHEN I SURRENDERED TO HIM."
THANK YOU, ALICIA.
WE'RE SO HAPPY FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND WE REALLY APPRECIATE
YOU SHARING THAT ENCOURAGEMENT WITH US.
BECAUSE WHAT YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND IS WHILE GOD DOESN'T
ALWAYS WORK IN THE SAME WAY OR HEAL IN THE SAME WAYS, HE HAS
THAT SAME LOVE FOR EVERY ONE OF US.
AND HE IS WORKING ON YOUR BEHALF.
YOU CAN DEPEND ON IT.
SO, TELL US YOUR STORY.
IN WHAT WAYS HAVE YOU STRUGGLED TO DEPEND ON GOD?
AND WHAT HAS HAPPENED AS A RESULT OF LETTING HIM WORK
IN YOUR LIFE?
ANSWER THAT QUESTION ON FACEBOOK OR TWITTER.
USE #EA AND IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO
ASK, WE MAY ANSWER IT HERE ON THE SHOW.
USE #ASKJOYCE.
YOU CAN ALSO DO THAT ON INSTAGRAM.
JUST WRITE IT ON A CARD AND HOLD UP YOUR QUESTION RIGHT THERE
WITH #ASK JOYCE AND WHO KNOWS, YOU MAY SEE IT HERE ON THE SHOW.
SO RIGHT NOW, LET'S GET BACK TO JOYCE WITH MORE OF TODAY'S
ANSWER.
JOYCE: "HE LEADS ME IN THE PATHS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS,
[UPRIGHTNESS AND RIGHT STANDING WITH HIM--NOT BECAUSE
I'VE EARNED IT BUT]
FOR HIS NAME'S SAKE."
NOW, LET ME JUST SAY A WORD ABOUT RIGHTEOUSNESS AND RIGHT
STANDING WITH GOD.
MOST OF US SPEND MOST OF OUR LIFE
FEELING BAD ABOUT OURSELVES.
FEELING GUILTY AND CONDEMNED, ASHAMED AND LIKE THERE'S
SOMETHING WRONG WITH US.
THE DEVIL WANTS TO GIVE US WRONGNESS.
HE WANTS US TO FEEL THAT WE'RE WRONG.
THAT EVERYTHING WE DO IS WRONG.
THAT WE'RE JUST NOT WHAT WE SHOULD BE.
AND JESUS WANTS TO GIVE US RIGHTEOUSNESS OR RIGHTNESS.
AND YOU CAN'T PRODUCE SOMETHING THAT YOU DON'T HAVE IN YOU.
AN APPLE TREE CAN ONLY MAKE APPLES BECAUSE GOD HAS MADE IT
AN APPLE TREE.
AND SO, IT'S FOOLISH TO TEACH PEOPLE TO BEHAVE RIGHT IF
THEY'VE NOT FIRST RECEIVED THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD
THROUGH CHRIST.
THAT'S WHY JUST WHAT I REFER TO AS RELIGION AND I DON'T MEAN TO
BE RUDE BY THAT BUT WHEN I TALK ABOUT "RELIGION" I'M TALKING
ABOUT JUST FOLLOWING RULES AND REGULATIONS AND GOING THROUGH
FORMULAS THAT REALLY HAVE NO LIFE AND NO POWER IN THEM.
JUST KEEPING LAWS THAT YOU THINK ARE GOING TO PLEASE GOD WHEN
REALLY JESUS DIDN'T DIE SO WE COULD ALL HAVE OUR OWN LITTLE
BRAND OF RELIGION.
HE DIED SO WE COULD HAVE AN INTIMATE, PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP
WITH GOD THROUGH HIM.
WHEN JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS THE THICK, 3 FEET THICK CURTAIN
THAT SEPARATED, THAT WAS IN THE TEMPLE THAT
SEPARATED THE HOLY PLACE FROM THE MOST HOLY PLACE
WAS RIPPED FROM THE TOP TO THE BOTTOM AT THE MOMENT THAT
JESUS DIED.
WHY NOT FROM THE BOTTOM UP?
THERE WAS A POINT BEING MADE.
IT WAS TOO TALL FOR MAN TO REACH IT.
IT BEING RIPPED FROM THE TOP TO THE BOTTOM WAS CLEAR INDICATION
THAT GOD WAS OPENING UP THE WAY NOW FOR THE COMMON ORDINARY
EVERYDAY PERSON TO ENTER INTO THE HOLY PRESENCE OF GOD
AND HAVE FELLOWSHIP WITH HIM.
WE DON'T JUST NEED RELIGION.
AND SO, RELIGION SOMETIMES JUST GIVE YOU A BUNCH OF THINGS TO DO
BUT NEVER TEACHES YOU WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST.
NOW, I WENT TO A CHURCH FOR MANY, MANY, MANY YEARS
AND ALTHOUGH I LEARNED SOME VERY GOOD THINGS, THEY HAD A GOOD
MESSAGE ABOUT GRACE AND I LEARNED ABOUT BEING SAVED
THROUGH GRACE.
AND I LEARNED A LOT ABOUT DOCTRINAL THINGS,
THE VIRGIN BIRTH AND LOTS OF REALLY, REALLY GOOD THINGS.
BUT NOBODY EVER TAUGHT ME WHO I WAS IN CHRIST.
I NEVER FELT ANY BETTER ABOUT MYSELF AT ALL BECAUSE I HAD
A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD.
I STILL JUST THOUGHT THAT I WAS THIS TERRIBLE MESS THAT JUST
COULD NEVER DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN JUST MESS UP
EVERY SINGLE DAY OF MY LIFE.
AND SO IN 2 CORINTHIANS 5:21, ONE OF MY FAVORITE SCRIPTURES,
IT SAYS, "HE THAT KNEW NO SIN BECAME SIN THAT WE MIGHT BE MADE
THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN CHRIST."
NOW, IT'S JUST IMPORTANT FOR ME TO TAKE A MINUTE AND LET YOU
KNOW THAT IF YOU'RE A BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN THEN GOD VIEWS YOU
AS BEING IN RIGHT STANDING WITH HIM, IRREGARDLESS OF WHAT
YOU DO.
AND I KNOW THAT'S REALLY HARD FOR US TO WRAP OUR HEADS AROUND.
YOU THINK, "WELL, WON'T THAT JUST GIVE PEOPLE A LICENSE
TO SIN?" NO, BECAUSE HERE'S THE THING,
ONCE YOU KNOW REALLY WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST AND THE BEAUTY OF WHAT
HE'S DONE FOR YOU, SIN IS THE LAST THING THAT YOU'RE GOING
TO WANT TO DO.
YOU'RE GOING TO DO EVERYTHING THAT YOU CAN TO PLEASE GOD, NOT
TO BE RIGHT WITH HIM BUT BECAUSE YOU'VE BEEN MADE RIGHT WITH HIM.
AMEN?
SO, NO CONDEMNATION OF THOSE WHO ARE IN CHRIST.
SO, IT'S IMPORTANT TO ME TO LET YOU KNOW THAT YOU HAVE A RIGHT
STANDING WITH GOD AND YOU'RE IN THE PROCESS NOW OF WALKING THAT
OUT IN YOUR LIFE.
THERE'S SEVERAL WAYS THAT I CAN SAY IT BUT I CAN SAY IT WE'RE
ALWAYS IN THE PROCESS OF BECOMING WHAT WE ALREADY ARE.
SO, WE'RE SPIRIT.
SO SPIRITUALLY, WE'VE BEEN MADE RIGHT WITH GOD.
BUT NOW IN OUR EXPERIENCE WE'RE LEARNING HOW TO WALK THAT OUT
WITH GOD.
I MADE THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD WHEN I AM BORN AGAIN, BUT THEN I
GET ON THE PATH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AND THE BIBLE SAYS THAT HE MAKES
OUR PATH BRIGHTER AND BRIGHTER EVERY DAY.
NOW, LET'S JUST GO BACK TO PSALM 23 HERE.
"HE LEADS ME IN THE PATHS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS NOT BECAUSE
I'VE EARNED IT BUT FOR HIS NAME'S SAKE.
YEA, THOUGH I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH,
I WILL FEAR NO EVIL."
NOW, HERE'S THE MESSAGE THAT I WANT TO GET ACROSS TO YOU.
EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE DOING THE RIGHT THING AND YOU'RE ON
THE RIGHT PATH AND YOU'RE GROWING IN GOD.
YOU'RE PRESSING ON IN RIGHTEOUSNESS, YOUR PATH IS
BECOMING BRIGHTER AND BRIGHTER EVERY DAY, THAT DOES NOT
NECESSARILY MEAN THAT YOU WILL NOT PASS THROUGH WHAT THE BIBLE
CALLS, "THE SHADOW OF THE VALLEY OF DEATH," WHICH BASICALLY
JUST MEANS HARD TIMES.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: SO WE'VE GOT TO GET
RID OF ANY KIND OF THINKING, "WELL, YOU KNOW I'M DOING ALL
THIS STUFF AND I'M TRYING TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT AND THE RIGHT
THINGS NOT HAPPENING TO ME AND I'M JUST TIRED OF THIS SO I'M
JUST GOING TO QUIT AND GIVE UP."
WE NEED TO LEAVE THE TIMING OF OUR RESULTS IN GOD'S HANDS.
OUR JOB IS NOT RESULTS.
OUR JOB IS OBEDIENCE.
WE DO WHAT WE DO NOT EVEN TO JUST GET A RESULT, BUT BECAUSE
THAT'S WHAT WE BELIEVE GOD WANTS US TO DO AND WE KNOW THAT
IF WE DO WHAT IT IS RIGHT, WE WILL HAVE PEACE AND, LISTEN TO
ME, THERE IS NO WAY THAT WE CAN EVER FAIL AND NOT BE DELIVERED
IF WE'RE DOING WHAT'S RIGHT.
IF YOU'VE GOT PROBLEMS IN YOUR LIFE RIGHT NOW.
YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE BEING ATTACKED IT'S FOR ONE OF
TWO REASONS.
EITHER YOU'VE OPENED THE DOOR BY DOING SOMETHING STUPID AND YOU
LET THE ENEMY IN OR YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT AND THE ENEMY'S
MAD ABOUT IT AND HE'S TRYING TO COME AGAINST YOU
TO GET YOU TO STOP IT.
AND YOU DON'T NEED TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHICH ONE IT IS, YOU
JUST PRAY AND ASK GOD TO SHOW YOU IF YOU'RE WRONG, KEEP
SHOWING YOU IF YOU'RE RIGHT AND EITHER WAY, I'M GOING TO KEEP ON
KEEPING ON AND I'M GOING TO COME OUT WITH THE VICTORY
ON THE OTHER SIDE.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: I WANT TO PRAY FOR YOU THOUGH.
FATHER, I PRAY FOR EVERYBODY HERE, THEY'VE BEEN SUCH A GOOD
ATTENTIVE CROWD TONIGHT.
I PRAY, LORD, THAT PEOPLE REMEMBER THIS AND NEXT TIME
THEY'RE GOING THROUGH SOMETHING DIFFICULT OR IF THEY'RE GOING
THROUGH SOMETHING DIFFICULT RIGHT NOW THAT THIS IS WORKING
SOMETHING GOOD IN MY LIFE.
THIS IS GOING TO WORK OUT GOOD.
THIS TOO SHALL PASS, AND IT'S GOING TO WORK OUT GOOD.
LEAD ME IN THE PATHS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AND YEA THOUGH I
GO THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH, I WILL FEAR NO
EVIL, GOD, FOR YOU ARE WITH ME.
GINGER: SO, WITHOUT A DOUBT YOU CAN DEPEND ON GOD.
AND WE SHOULD, SIMPLY BECAUSE WE SO DESPERATELY NEED HIM.
AND HE WANTS TO BE THERE FOR US.
YOU KNOW THE TEACHINGS THAT YOU SAW TODAY WERE ONLY A SMALL
PORTION OF WHAT JOYCE TAUGHT ON PSALM 23 AND THERE'S SO MUCH
VALUABLE INFORMATION IN THERE.
SO OUR OFFER TODAY IS THIS.

This wheelchair Fencer sends a message of hope to Iraq | Athletes Under Fire - Duration: 9:18.
I used to be an able-bodied person.
I wasn't born with a wheelchair.
Life goes on.
One day, while I was getting treatment at the hospital,
they advised me to try fencing.
The idea of sport...
..is what will unite people.
It will clear extremism from people's minds.

(AMMAR HADI ALI
(WHEELCHAIR FENCING, IRAQ)
(BAGHDAD, IRAQ)
My name is Ammar Hadi Ali,
I'm a wheelchair fencer with the Iraqi national team.
I'm a carpenter.
One morning, I was on my way to work
and it happened that there was a bomb on the sidewalk.
It exploded while we were passing by.
It hit me and my friend, who's also a work colleague.
We were taken to hospital.
They found a shrapnel in my back.
I couldn't move my legs when I woke up.
They knew it had hit my spinal cord,
which put me in a wheelchair.

RALLYE WEIZ 2018 | M1 Rallye-Masters - Duration: 3:38.
At the 4th round of M1 Rallye-Masters in Weiz, both titles could be secured already
Michael Röck, you could bring it home here in Weiz and become M1-LG2 champion
Does that make you more nervous?
Not really, as we have another rally in case it does not work out here
But Weiz is a really nice region with great atmosphere, lots of spectators already yesterday
It is a good opportunity to get the title here
Of course we want to win that title. That is always important for the team, for the sponsors and for me as well
Personally I look more at the overall classification
So I have to find a good compromise between attacking for overall classification and bringing home the M1 title
Rallye Weiz is not easy. Already on stage 2 we see that there is no room for error
Christian Zerzawy and Hans-Christian Winkelmayer are unhurt and announced that they will be back 2019
but probably with a new car
Another new car is on track already in Weiz
The Fasching brothers make it to the finish on P6 without problems
Future rally starts are planned
In front of them, spectators' favorite Martin Ritt in the Volvo takes P5
Fastest LG2 car is once again Michael Röck. With this performance he secures his LG2-title
Behind Röck, Patrick Knoll at his home rally can keep off Ruiner (Nissan)
Up in front, Günther Knobloch can make it to P8 in the overall classification
With that, his 2nd M1-title is secured

Big Man In A Suit Of Armour..Take That Off,What Are You? | Marvel's The Avengers (2012) - Duration: 4:55.
Loki is manipulating you.
And you've been doing what, exactly?
You didn't come here because I bat my eyelashes at you.
Yes, and I'm not leaving
because suddenly you get a little twitchy.
I'd like to know why S.H.I.E.L.D.
Is using the Tesseract to build weapons of mass destruction.
Because of him.
Me?
Last year, Earth had a visitor from another planet
who had a grudge match that levelled a small town.
We learned that not only are we not alone
but we are hopelessly, hilariously, outgunned.
My people want nothing but peace with your planet.
But you're not the only people out there, are you?
And you're not the only threat.
The world's filling up with people who can't be matched,
that can't be controlled.
Like you controlled the Cube?
Your work with the Tesseract
is what drew Loki to it, and his allies.
It is a signal to all the realms
that the Earth is ready for a higher form of war.
A higher form?
You forced our hand.
We had to come up with something.
A nuclear deterrent.
Because that always calms everything right down.
Remind me again how you made your fortune, Stark.
I'm sure if he still made weapons, Stark would be neck-deep...
Hold on. How is this now about me?
I'm sorry, isn't everything?
I thought humans were more evolved than this.
Excuse me, did we come to your planet and blow stuff up?
You treat your champions with such mistrust.
Are you boys really that naïve?
S.H.I.E.L.D. Monitors potential threats.
Captain America's on threat watch?
We all are.
Wait, you're on that list?
Are you above or below angry bees?
Stark, so help me God, if you make one more wisecrack...
Threat! Verbal threat. I feel threatened.
- Show some respect. - Respect what?
Transport Six-Six-Bravo, please relay confirm codes.
I've got you on the computer, but not on the day log.
What is your haul? Over.
Arms and ammunition. Over.
You speak of control, yet you court chaos.
That's his M.O., isn't it?
I mean, what are we, a team?
No, we're a chemical mixture that makes chaos.
We're a time bomb.
You need to step away.
Why shouldn't the guy let off a little steam?
You know damn well why. Back off!
I'm starting to want you to make me.
Yeah. Big man in a suit of armour.
Take that off, what are you?
Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist.
I know guys with none of that worth ten of you.
I've seen the footage.
The only thing you really fight for is yourself.
You're not the guy to make the sacrifice play,
to lay down on a wire and let the other guy crawl over you.
I think I would just cut the wire.
Always a way out.
You may not be a threat
but you better stop pretending to be a hero.
A hero? Like you?
You're a laboratory experiment, Rogers.
Everything special about you came out of a bottle.
Put on the suit. Let's go a few rounds.
You people are so petty and tiny.
Yeah, this is a team.
Agent Romanoff, would you escort
Dr Banner back to his...
Where? You rented my room.
The cell was just in case...
In case you needed to kill me.
But you can't. I know, I tried.
I got low. I didn't see an end.
So, I put a bullet in my mouth, and the other guy spit it out.
So I moved on.
I focused on helping other people. I was good.
Until you dragged me back into this freak show
and put everyone here at risk.
You want to know my secret, Agent Romanoff?
You want to know how I stay calm?
Dr Banner,
put down the sceptre.
Got it.
Sorry, kids,
you don't get to see my party trick after all.
You located the Tesseract?
I could get there fastest.
The Tesseract belongs on Asgard. No human is a match for it.
- You're not going alone. - You're gonna stop me?
Put on the suit, let's find out.
I'm not afraid to hit an old man.
Put on the suit.
Oh, my God.
Put on the suit.
Yeah.

Weber Ranch Kettle Review - Slow 'N Sear Review - BBQ Grill Review - Duration: 11:45.
what is up everybody this is Lyon with no hippie BBQ and I am here with the
biggest kettle grill I've ever seen in my life my boy Mike brought it up here
he has a Facebook page listen if you're on my channel and you have a kettle
grill or something like that you need to get on his page I'm telling you got good
stuff on there I don't know anything about this kettle grill but I'm gonna
let him get into it and tell us a little bit about it Thanks so my name is Mike
Allen I'm from the kettle crackers Facebook group you can also find me on
Instagram of the kettle cookers yeah this is the biggest grill that Weber
makes its Weber ranch kettle it's about 37 inches in diameter weighs about 150
pounds the cooking grade alone which is a hinge great
we have about 26 pounds I've got it set up today with the gentleman barbecue
ranch kettle slowest eater
you take a look at this it's got a great in the bottom so you can sift it out of
your charcoal and you're done if you don't use it on I've got a water
reservoir here so you can fill this up for slower cookie and it gives you
humidity in the grill and it also creates a barrier between your charcoal
so this is a close-up of this grill and I'm telling you when I first saw this
thing I couldn't believe how big it was as a matter of fact there was a 22 inch
kettle grill that was sitting next to it and I actually had to ask what the size
was because I thought it was almost like a 18 inch grill is America okay here's
the lid of a 22 inch kettle grill night a lot of you guys were on my youtube
channel know that I just bought a 26 and my 26 inch made this made that 22 looks
small and this just makes it look like infinitesimal I just can't believe how
big this thing is it jason ganahl his restaurant gque
barbecue in Colorado we're gonna be doing a little bit of a cook on it so I
might be able to get a little bit of footage on that so we'll kind of go from
there Parrish from a drillin barbecue we invented this Sloan's here ranch kettle
addition here that is in this very large ranch kettle grill I'm here with my boy
Mike Allen he is administrator for the Facebook group the
kettle cookers they're a sister-brother group with us on Facebook so you should
check them out if you're a member of our group by all means go join theirs theirs
as well I've never cooked on one of these before and later today we're going
to be doing a state cook might have some more experience with it I've noticed
there are some key differences between the ranch kettle and either the 22 inch
or the 26 inch and I thought I just hit it my cup with a couple of questions and
let him talk through why he thinks whoever designed this big boy the way
they did the way they did so the first thing I noticed is that there are no
handles on the drains I understand the greatest 26 inches in diameter
that thing is huge it's got some really nice openings for to get charcoal in but
there's no handles on it so why do you think they get bad
I think they handles with a just be a potential point of failure I'm such a
heavy-duty grill like this right it is the rest you're gonna stress those well
every time you pick it up and yeah I mean there's a guy that deals with that
kind of thing I can't I can sit down with it being so heavy I mean that's a
lot of weight on those handles yep it also just like your easy spin great it
allows this great to spin there getting inside for it to get
you know that's a good point is with the with the school we don't need this today
or just yet
so they molded the rancher to hold the top grade so there's no tabs built into
the kettle like they usually do with the with a 22 26 but they didn't put it to a
bin for this pot a charcoal grate so it it kind of moves it around what do you
what do you think that means it was for not having that and it does move around
you gotta kind of be careful to put it in level yeah but not having the tabs
again that's another failure point anywhere there's gonna be welds if you
look at people's kettles and you see spots where there's no porcelain right
it's almost always right are those great times are yeah and it's harder for this
machine to get under there and spray them under especially where the metal
curves away so yeah that makes sense that makes and you this would be a lot
of weight on those tabs so you would wonder if they could even that the
tablet was supported for long so yeah that makes sense
okay this Rancher still has the three let me see I don't know if it's on
camera but this branch er has three bit design of Weber days of old why do you
think they do that and there's no attribute system that's a great question
I mean if they had a OneTouch in here it'd definitely make it a lot easier to
clean out this thing's kind of a pain in the butt to clean out yeah but I think
specially for slow cooking having the three separate vents it just gives you a
lot more control you know I don't have any problems I can
usually get this thing going and keep it within 10 degrees once I get to been
silent without having to touch it there we go six eight hours of touching okay
that makes sense another thing I would think about is that a belated system
that covers this whole area you would need a very large arm to move it and
whenever you got grease on it it would it would be prone to bending away and we
know that's one of the problems with the OneTouch removal system is those blades
to eventually you know move away from the porcelain and they stopped working
we had to replace it yeah and that would be you know if they did that like you
said it would be such a big thing it would probably be 75 bucks to replace it
right you know every couple of years where with this again less failure
moments this is kind of as close to commercial yeah exactly it's
meant to last for a while all right let's get this lit down there's one last
thing I'd like to do so it's got two handles I think it's kind of obvious why
those two handles it's a really big lid but there's no thermometer which I guess
maybe they just decide the lids too far away from the cooking great place to
work but we've got this one hanukkah's in it on the top instead of you know one
on the side or maybe a couple on the side like the the regular kettle one
you know I'm not sure of that you know when I first got it I kind of thought
the same thing I'm used to putting my pen over where the food is but I can
tell you that when I get it going and put some wood in here for smoke you know
just like all Weber's it's not super hair tight right and and you will see
smoke kind of leaking all the way around the lip which I'm okay with that
some people don't like a leaking fluid when I see smoke leaking out from under
my lid and I mean it doesn't come chlorine out of this grill right but
when I see smoke coming out of the front I know that I've got smoke on my feet up
there yeah I mean you've got a little probably a better seal than petal just
because you have that tab and then you've got a double fold here in the
metal but yeah it's it's I can tell just squeezing it down that it's not flush so
and you know my experience with the top events and one thing I'm kind of
surprised by those lower bits have very small holes but this one has very big
holes yeah it's the same exact man and yeah they're kennels I think they're
assuming some errands going to come in from around the lid that's the reason
they did that but my experience is the top lid versus the side that are top
that versus I bet it doesn't have it act on near your smug flavor Nanoka
mottos know their style grills are usually centered anyway so it's probably
not a big deal is this the second time yeah yeah so you need to be careful what
I use tongs yeah slide really easily so I mean it's easy to just kind of quick
yeah I have fun with this if I really want to get a pot if I leave it wide
open which is what you normally do in the kettle you're wanting to draw in as
much an error as you can this actually exhausts a little too much
to come up with the bottom of it so I'll usually close it down that's that's
where I've been for a hot alright so we will be leaving lid off today later when
we do some serious yeah all right well hey man I think you that was a big help
answers a little a lot of the questions I had from seeing this cooker I mean
I've seen it in stores before this is the first time I very ever looked at it
closely we invented this loaves here for it based on the feedback from customers
like I said today is going to be the first time I've ever cooking on one of
these things has to be a lot of fun and thanks I appreciate it yeah
so I promise you some special guests today the first one I want to introduce
you to is David Parrish David is the inventor of the slow in serum you guys
have probably seen it popping up on other people's YouTube channels it's got
the best techniques for making grilled meat on the Weber Kettle David what are
we gonna be cooking today alright today we're gonna be cooking the perfect New
York Strip we're going through slow smoke in followed by a cold great sear
Wow best in your hand that sounds absolutely delicious I cannot wait to
try it we have a giant Weber pit right here where do we get that from my region
to find that Weber Cadillac I found it on Craigslist
awesome well I cannot wait to see your techniques on that grill let's get
cooking 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt per pound of steak and the reason we do that
is to solve overtime goes the evening me and then it takes the muscle fibers and
unwinds the world that traps the water in between them and
gives you a contender more flavorful result and a lot more juicy
the right side is really
that misplace we're gonna probably
all right now that we've got all three probes in we're good to go so close
good sense one get back to the cold rate you see we had some flame up to pull ups
on the charcoal and now the enemy that's more the great alright now that we've
got another cold portion of the great expose the snake
look at the color we're already getting and that's after all in just a minute so
another minute then you spin

✅ Tunesië laat bevoorradingsschip met tientallen migranten na twee weken toe - Duration: 1:39.
Het bevoorradingsschip Sarost 5 mag de haven van Zarzis binnenvaren. Het vaartuig ligt al enkele dagen in de buurt van die kustplaats
Op 13 juli haalde het schip ongeveer veertig migranten van een bootje. Meerdere landen weigerden de migranten op te nemen
Het Tunesische ministerie van Defensie zei dat de redding had plaatsgevonden in een gebied waar Malta verantwoordelijk voor is
Malta vond juist dat de migranten naar Tunesië gebracht hadden moeten worden, omdat zich daar de dichtstbijzijnde veilige haven bevindt
Het komt vaker voor dat landen met elkaar in de clinch liggen over de opvang van migranten die zijn gered op de Middellandse Zee
Het Rode Kruis zei eerder tegen CNN dat de situatie aan boord van de Sarost 5 niet houdbaar was
De hulporganisatie had recentelijk artsen naar het schip gestuurd. Wil jij elke ochtend direct weten wat je 's nachts gemist hebt en wat er die dag gaat gebeuren?

The Ants with 2 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS on Youtube! - Duration: 38:59.
Welcome everyone to the Antiverse, the name given to this fully stocked Ant Room, whose
every flat surface above floor level, supports flourishing ant kingdoms of varying sizes,
in which colonies of ants, live, die, hunt, multiply, form pacts with other creatures,
and deal with a variety of life challenges and events, ranging from mite infections,
invasive wars from savage ants, cannibalism, struggles for power, and lately a giant flood.
Basically, the real ant life stories, which could give Game of Thrones a run for its money.
These tales of success and failure make up the incredible and often unpredictable world
of ants.
But aside from how incredible and epic the lives of these ants are, what makes each of
these ant kingdoms unique is that they happen to be the most well-known ants on Youtube.
Welcome everyone to the ants of the Antiverse, who have officially hit 2 million subscribers!
Please SUBSCRIBE to my channel and hit the bell icon.
Welcome to the AC Family!
Enjoy!
Greetings, AC Family!
Looks like we did it!
It seems like just yesterday we hit 1 Million subscribers which was mind-blowing enough,
and here we are now hitting the 2 million subscribers mark.
So, for this week's episode, I wanted to ask you guys what you wanted to see for our big
2M celebration, and well, many of you asked for a complete full ant room tour.
So AC Family, as usual, your wish is my command!
Today I will walk with you through the indoor biodome that has become my ant room, to visit
all eight of my current ant kingdoms, and if you're new, you'll also get a brief backgrounder
on each of the ant colonies' backstory so you may better understand why they've become
so special to us.
I realize that many of you may be new to the channel so be prepared to be mind blown, and
AC Family, if you're a regular to the channel, brace yourselves, because the updates I have
to share today on every colony will definitely shock you.
Also, keep watching until the end, because I will also need a lot of your input and votes
for certain matters, and I also have a special surprise to celebrate us hitting our 2M subs
mark!
So, let's begin with newest ant kingdoms and make our way down to the oldest.
Last week, we followed the creation of our newest addition to the Antiverse, the Plateaus
of Gaia, a multi-leveled terrarium whose design was to nurture a self-feeding system where
tiny creatures called springtails would breed, and the ants living here, would hunt the springtails
down.
All I needed to do was add organics, water, and light, and it has been working marvelously
so far.
The Plateaus of Gaia are home to the Jawbreakers, a ferocious-looking trap-jaw ant colony, with
menacing jaws which open 180 degrees and can snap shut with record-breaking speeds and
force.
The bites from these ants are intense, and if you watch last week's video, you'll see
how epic their hunting prowess is!
Now, I won't delve too much into this ant kingdom since we just saw them last week and
there is much to report on the other ant kingdoms ahead, but if you are interested to discover
more on the Jawbreakers, feel free to watch last week's episode.
Now, let's move on to the next ant kingdom, who won my heart and apparently many of yours
a couple week ago.
Welcome everyone to the cutest ant kingdom of the Antiverse - the mystic floating island
of Avista.
Avista is home to a bustling supercolony of Pheidole ants, also known as Big-Headed ants.
They're called Big-Headed ants because of the fact that these ants are polymorphic and
have massive majors, soldier ants with huge heads, which specialize in cutting open food
and defense.
On the day they moved in, like a scene of ant paparazzi, we also were lucky enough to
catch a glimpse of their four royal queens.
Here's Queen 1, 2, 3, and 4.
They founded this colony cooperatively because the species is polygynous, and allows more
than one queen per colony.
Today, the island of Avista continues to bloom, with new shoots developing from the Great
Tree of Wisdom, which stands at the center of the island.
The shoots appear as little reddish buds which give way to new baby leaves that grow in their
place.
The buds fall to the mossy floor to decompose naturally and fertilize the soils for the
tree.
And oh, it looks like we have some garbage to clean!
The ants have been eating a lot since they moved in, and I just love how they make it
so easy for me, to do my work, as their weekly garbage man to clean up after them, which
I am happy to do.
These are superworm exoskeletons, which their co-inhabiting springtails and mite friends
clean further of any remaining superworm meat.
And hey, look.
It seems they're not the only ones digging through the ants' scraps.
I see fly cocoons and a maggot!
It seems flies and gnats have taken advantage of Avista's open-concept design, and paid
the floating island a visit to lay eggs!
These new Avista-born citizens will become adult flies and migrate elsewhere to mate
and lay eggs onto some other decomposing material.
The ants don't seem to prey on them.
They are after all cleaning up after their mess, along with the springtails and mites.
Let's pat the area down to make room for today's offering: a cockroach head.
They'll surely love this!
And AC Family, watch this!
It totally shocked me to see a line of ants suddenly rushing out of nowhere to the roach!
How on Earth did they know about it so fast?
I wonder if they've come to associate my scent and close proximity with feeding time!
The ants came pouring out of their hole from across the island to collect the goods.
Look at how determined that worker is to pull that huge roach head.
Haha!
I think you're gunna need some help there.
Perhaps some strong majors' jaws will do the trick.
All this protein will be essential to the egg-production of their queens, as well as
the fairly rapid growth of their young.
Due to their four queen egg-production and all the food they've been eating these past
three weeks, I have no doubt in my mind they are growing in numbers fast underground!
When this colony outgrows Avista here, I plan to create a bridge leading to another floating
island, and continue expanding in this manner until Avista is a network of connected floating
islands.
Wouldn't that be so cool?
Alright AC Family, new and old, while the ants are feeding here, it is now time to cast
your vote.
Let's give this four queen super colony of big-Headed ants an official name, shall we?
Please take a quick moment to vote here, on my top 5 picks from your name suggestions
in comments from their last video.
Thank you AC Council for your input!
We will announce the results in a future video.
OK, time to move on.
Let's move eastward to revisit the enchanted region of El Dragon Island, a kingdom which
quickly became an AC Family favourite.
It is a moated paludarium ant kingdom because like other past ant kingdoms on this regional
shelf, El Dragon here was under siege by a wild colony of pharaoh ants whose thirst for
ant blood and meat seemed to be insatiable, and even massacred a great past colony of
ours.
So, El Dragon was designed to be a moated world, to keep Pharaoh ant scouts out and
to swallow these ants up if they ever tried to swim across to get to the island, by way
of guardian Rasbora fish, who prowled this River of Dragon's Tears.
Like El Dragon's moated gators the presence of these predatory fish has worked at keeping
pharaoh ants away so far.
So, if you're new to El Dragon, initially this ant kingdom was inhabited by another
colony, called the Black Dragons, but was replaced due to their escape by another ant
colony, we've called the Platinum Dragons.
These ants are pretty cool, and are commonly known as lesser weaver ants, for their well-known
behaviour of making nests within leaves of trees and shrubs!
But for now the Platinum Dragons live here, quietly within the great skull that adorns
the eastern plateau of El Dragon.
They clean each other lovingly to help alleviate the affects of a plague which affects them.
You see, on the day the Platinum Dragons moved into El Dragon four weeks ago, we were shocked
to learn that they were battling a severe plague of mites.
You guys voted for us to proceed with mite therapy using lemon slices, but AC Family,
I think you will be surprised with what I have to show you now.
Check this out, guys!
On the night, I was going to start the lemon therapy, I offered the ants some sugar water
in a snap cap vial, which they absolutely loved.
But examining the ants' bodies, I immediately noticed something very exciting!
The ants showed signs of having little to no mites encrusting their bodies and eyes.
I maybe counted one or two mites per body if any, but this was much better than the
clumps of mites which infested each worker, back when they first came to us!
So this was totally amazing news!
It meant the phoretic mites were loving El Dragon habitat, and falling off the ants,
to become free-roaming mites, feeding on their usual decaying matter.
In fact, the ants were showing such promising signs of a healthy recovery and appetite,
that I decided to simply hold off on the lemon therapy for a bit, and see if their mite riddance
would continue naturally.
Look at them just devouring that cockroach like there was no tomorrow!
It was great to see them eating up all this valuable protein!
In fact, their excessive gorging on sugar water and cockroach meat was a good thing
for them, as they could transfer these nutrient-rich goods from mouth to mouth, a process called
trophallaxis, to each member of the colony, but most importantly to the queen, wherever
she was.
You see, when they moved in here, they only had one single larva, which was very critical,
because these ants actually need their larvae to spin the silk needed to glue their debris
nests together at least to make this skull a little less exposed to the elements, and
more enclosed to keep humidity in.
But because they only had one larva when they moved in, it was like they lacked the nails
and cement essential to building their ant house.
So for the past four weeks, they've resorted to living within this very open and drafty
skull.
The poor ones.
But, hey, now that the ants were eating lots, I was hoping the queen would therefore be
egg-laying lots, so they could get on with producing more larvae, so they could finally
build a much more suitable nest.
But AC Family, I have something to report, news that will shock you as it did me when
I discovered it.
A few nights ago, something happened with the Platinum Dragons.
Look!
Peeking into the skull one night, I was speechless.
The ants were completely gone!
Not a trace of them anywhere!
Oh no!
My mind raced as I immediately had Black Dragon flashbacks.
I assumed they had escaped, just like their predecessors did.
I checked the foliage above to see if it was touching the lights.
It wasn't.
I checked the waters for drowned ants.
Nothing.
I inspected the soils to see if perhaps the colony had relocated underground!
I could see no evidence of the Platinum Dragons nesting there, either.
And then I saw it!
AC Family, the news regarding the Platinum Dragons is that...
They've officially created a leaf nest!
Look!
Right there!
See all that debris?!
I literally jumped for joy when I spotted that the Platinum Dragons had created a royal
leaf suite, within the concave spaces of the leaves!
This was amazing!
And what was even more cool, is that it seems, the ants have actually ripped off the debris
walls from their old camp within the skull, and carried it way up, to incorporate into
their new home!
Alright!
These ants recycle!
Another reason that this was exciting news, is because, the fact that they've built this
much larger and more natural nest structure, indicates that for sure the colony had enough
larval force to produce enough silk to glue all this debris together!
As we hoped, AC Family, the queen has been laying eggs!
Yay!
They've even used some leftover roach exoskeleton to give their leaf nest structure!
Talk about resourceful, and look, there are some Platinum Dragons now, assumingly guarding
the nest entrances.
I also noticed some springtails had followed the ants up in the leaves, which was surprising
because I always assumed springtails were strictly ground creatures, but on El Dragon
I guess they've evolved into tree-dwellers.
Now I also noticed some peculiar webbing, adjacent to the nest, which I had a hunch
was not a Platinum Dragon structure.
Have a look!
Now I did some snooping, and I wasn't able to capture it here, but just this morning
I spotted and confirmed that indeed this was a spider's web, but the spider was super small
and not a threat to the Platinum Dragons.
My guess was that the spider was probably taking advantage of the small flies that were
attracted to the decaying roaches that the ants dragged up to their nest.
This was also super cool because this spider could also protect the colony, kinda like
a guard dog, against any patrolling pharaoh ants that may somehow make it onto the island,
to get at the Platinum Dragons.
Man, don't you just love when animals come together and team up?!
Just awesome!
Oh yeah, and there's one final piece of news to report about the Platinum Dragons!
AC Family, just this morning, as the ants dragged their latest meal up to their nest
to feed on, I noticed something that I think we all were hoping for.
I am pleased to announce that as of this morning, all the ants' body mites have officially disappeared.
Isn't that great, guys?
The Platinum Dragons are healthy, they have a new home, and they have a very promising
future ahead of them.
And now to move on to an ant kingdom we haven't heard much about lately.
In fact we've only seen them in one episode.
In the low lands, sits the Grove, the quaint territories of a young colony of terrestrial
carpenter ants.
Now, we haven't heard from them much because their colony is still young and they live
underground where we can't see them.
They're also nocturnal, secretive, and feed very infrequently.
Carpenter ant colonies as a rule, are relatively slow-growing when the colony is young.
The reason they feed infrequently is because they actually have repletes, specialized worker
ants who act as living food storage for the entire colony, which means they can gorge
themselves with food above ground when it's available, and then they can regurgitate and
feed all the food to these specialized fattened repletes, who then become the colony's living
food banks, to distribute food over an extended period of time, as needed.
A very useful adaptation if food above ground is scarce.
Hence, not much to report on them.
I do suspect the colony is living somewhere below this huge rock, but I'm reluctant to
lift the rock up to check, in fear of injuring the queen and young.
I feel in no time, these ants will be abundant and we'll be seeing them foraging above ground
more as the colony grows in size.
There is some news however on their ever evolving territories!
Some new plants have begun to sprout!
Like this cute spade-leafed plant here, and this very cool and cute miniature plant, which
I love the look of.
It kinda reminds me of a miniature version of mistletoe or something.
And look, some awesome patches of moss have naturally begun to grow in the Grove!
This was so awesome!
I have never been able to naturally grow moss in my terrariums, but here in the Grove, it
happened naturally, as they appear completely happy to carpet the ground.
Now, I still have hopes the colony will one day move into this hallow bamboo, where we
can better see them.
OK, so let's move on, to the Grove's twin territories.
Flipping the table around, we have the ever notorious wilderness, known as the Shire,
territories of our exotic colony of Asian bullet ants called the Black Panthers.
Every single time I look into the Shire, the territories look so different.
Look at all that healthy vegetation!
It truly changes the landscape!
Inspecting closer into the thick forest, some Black Panthers are working on a fresh cockroach
carcass.
These ants love their cockroach meat!
In fact, take a look at this.
One ant comes along, and completely ditches her recent catch of a pack of worms, and joins
in on the roach feast!
These tiny worms by the way, are also a regular food source to the Black Panthers, as I've
recently come to learn, and are routinely harvested by the ants, quite easily, from
the watermelon pieces I place into the Shire.
You see the watermelon is not only food to the Black Panthers, but is also food to a
variety of flies, as evidenced by this maggot here, springtails, and tiny worms which clump
together to breed, and I discovered the Black Panthers have been regularly harvesting these
worms, like gathering tasty berries, from the surfaces of the watermelon slices.
In fact, these ants have proven very intelligent in their techniques for food collection.
Of course, the ants prefer portable food items that can easily be carried back to the nest,
but when something is too large to drag back home, watch how crafty the ants are!
This ant grabs a mandible full of roach meat, and incredibly, starts to pull.
AC Family, watch closely as the ant displays a huge feat of strength, as it attempts to
literally pull the guts right out of the roach!
It is actually gutting it right before our eyes!
Amazing!
I could not believe what we were seeing!
As you can imagine, doing this requires enormous strength, but something tells me this isn't
the first time she's done this!
She relentlessly pulled and pulled with all her might, as more and more roach guts came
disconnecting from the roach's exoskeleton in a slimy mess.
Opportunistic mites latched on to feast on the freshly gutted food.
And with a final strong pull, the roach's guts were suddenly separated from the exoskeleton,
and the ant proceeded to carry this new fresh piece of roach meat home!
Unbelievable!
I cannot believe we just filmed this whole process!
Right, AC Family?!
As she brought the roach guts into the nest, it made me curious as to how the inner nest
was doing.
I moved the rock rampart concealing the nest interior aside, and peeked in.
Immediately, I noticed a tonne of cocoons all packed in a single cocoon hatchery!
Wow!
All these dark, brown sausage-looking things are Black Panther cocoons.
Within them develop adult ants.
This colony was truly growing!
And in a nearby chamber was the colony's larvae nursery!
Look at all those hungry, squirming larvae.
They cried and reached to feed from a piece of cockroach the ants had dragged into the
nest the day before.
It was amazing to see the Black Panther young like this, as we've seen in the Black Panthers'
previous episode.
I've never seen ant larvae so mobile before!
So, overall, it was very promising to know that the Black Panthers were also well on
their way to success.
They had healthy young, a new upcoming army of members in development, and have been quite
sufficient at gathering all the food they needed.
Alright AC Family, so now we move up to start revisiting the great OG colonies of the channel,
beginning with the Golden Empire, our massive colony of yellow crazy ants.
Welcome everyone to the Hacienda Del Dorado, the great ant kingdom which started off as
a simple, neat garden, but developed over time, into this huge partially open-concept
paludarium.
Now if there's an ant colony that's gone through a lot, it has been the Golden Empire!
These ants have been through so much, including surviving a mite plague and even merging twice
to form a super colony of now 8 queens, but not without a war first!
With their booming population and no predators to limit their population growth, we attempted
to add carnivorous plants into the lands and even introduced a predator, a praying mantis,
to hopefully control their explosive numbers.
None of these options proved effective for population control, and so we finally decided
to add this spring pool, called the Golden Springs, whose purpose was not only to provide
the ants with a fresh supply of water, but also hopefully naturally pick off a considerable
amount of weaker less nimble ants that fell into the Golden Springs, where they would
drown.
This solution has actually proven effective over the several months since the pool's installment.
The Golden Empire no longer seems over populated.
The Golden Springs have been the perfect population limiter, and within its waters lived a water
beast to feed on all the dead and drowned ant bodies.
Meet Emperor Sapphire, the colony's pet water beast who calls the Golden Springs home, and
he is super OC at keeping the pool spotless and tidy, but we love him for it.
Now, AC Family, this may shock you, but something has happened to Sapphire Emperor since we
last saw an update on him.
Here lies Emperor Sapphire's empty shell.
The Golden Empire has eaten all leftover parts to it.
You see, what happened was, Emperor Sapphire has once again, shed his skin, and I fed the
discarded exoskeleton that he didn't eat to the ants, which means, our Emperor Sapphire
here is even bigger now, than he's ever been before.
Have a look!
Let's coax him out with some fish pellets.
There he is!
He's still quite shy, but as beautiful as ever, and much, much bigger.
As he stepped partially out into the light, it made me realize that soon, we'll have to
relocate him into a much larger aquatic space.
It will certainly be sad saying goodbye to Emperor Sapphire, whom we've watched grow
from just a tiny crayfish to this huge gargantuan water beast, who by the way, could have left
his watery home at any time, but has been perfectly content living in these crystal
clear waters.
AC Family, do let me know in the comments what you think we should do with him, and
if we're going to replace him, should it be another crayfish or some other creature?
I gave the Golden Empire a cockroach to feast on.
I truly love this colony of yellow crazy ants, who have beaten the odds, and proved they
had what it takes to build a successful ant empire, despite all their challenges!
And so, AC Family, we're almost done our ant roster, as we move on to our second last ant
kingdom, that literally has had zero challenges over the two years we've had them.
Let's look at how the Dark Knights have been doing, our super colony of Black Crazy Ants,
living in their multi-unit setup, composed of naturally designed stacked AC Outworld
units, all connected by a network of tubing.
Now this colony has been so drama-free it hurts!
Trust me, I've tried to film them as often as I could, but there is always no update
on them ever, as they just seem to be the perfect, problem-free colony.
If I tried making a video on them, it would just be the same stuff as was covered in their
prior video.
The Dark Knights are one of two ant colonies to first inhabit this ant room, and the entire
time, they've lived in a rather simple setup, the conventional ant setup, involving tubes
connected to separate, contained units, which I do love.
It's what makes the Dark Knights' home unique from that of the other ant colonies of the
channel, because their setup is quite simple and not some complex paludarium, but wait!
Simple does not mean boring, at all.
No!
Look at all the different units they occupy.
We have Dark Knight territories here, connected by tubing all the way up here.
As well as behind the Hacienda Del Dorado, down this connecting tube to territories up
here, and even back there, an Uncle Milton ant farm.
In fact, the Dark Knights have the most expansive setup of all the ant kingdoms, with a total
travel area of 55 feet, which even extends the other way, via tube running way up here,
through a wall outside the Antiverse, and descending down to my first floor, into my
kitchen, and connecting to the territories of the Dark Knights of the South, an AC Outworld
and AC Hybrid Nest connection.
These ants naturally travel great distances and are largely nomadic in nature, which is
why its no surprise the Dark Knights have loved this current setup and proved to thrive
in it!
But AC Family, want to see the coolest part about all this?
Alright!
Watch what happens when I place in a roach.
I always try to stagger where I place the food, so the ants don't always get their meals
in the same place.
A few Dark Knights discover the new food, and this is when the magic happens.
Look at how quickly the message of new food spreads throughout the entire territories.
These initial scouts discovering the roach, instantly get excited and run off to spill
the tea to all members of the kingdom.
News spreads first to the nearest nest.
Workers come rushing out from underground as soon as they get news of their new food
prospect.
The news of food travels through the tubes through informants who rush out to nearby
lands and inform every ant it comes in contact with.
These ants then go on to spread the news of food, traveling through other tubes, to reach
ants in the distant regions.
This causes a slew of ants to come rushing in to check out if the quite literal "juicy"
gossip is true.
It doesn't take long before every member of the colony is informed of the new food located
in one of the units.
Of course, news spreads in all directions!
It also travels the other way, and travels down the primary highway leading out and into
the netherworlds below, to the Dark Knights of the South, which of course causes hungry
and excited ants to make the long commute upstairs and across, over to the exact unit
where it had been reported that a roach sits waiting to be consumed.
Isn't it just incredible being able to visually witness ant news spreading like this, throughout
all camps of an ant colony, over such a great distance?
I love observing the mechanics of ant news distribution particularly in this expansive
setup of the Dark Knights!
So it seems, this colony, as usual, is doing well and is problem-free.
Oh and if you're new to the channel, you may find it interesting that this colony is technically
immortal.
Yes, this colony just started off with two queens, but has grown to hundreds of reproductive
queens all laying eggs.
You may want to watch a past video on this colony, where I explain how the queens of
this species, can produce males which are genetically unrelated to their birth sisters,
a phenomenon which baffles scientists, but it means that the males of these ants can
go on to mate with their sister queen alates in the nest, to spawn even more egg-laying
queens, totally defying the limiting rules of incest.
Therefore, as long as no outer force kills the colony, the Dark Knights will technically
be self-producing and will live on and on and on forever.
Talk about the perfect ant colony, wouldn't you say?
So that concludes seven of the eight epic ant kingdoms of the Ant Room.
But now, we move on to our final ant colony, that has provided me with the greatest amount
of satisfaction over the years, but has also caused me the most stress, provided me with
the most challenges, and in every meaning of the word, given me the most pain!
They happen to be the very reason this channel first exploded onto the Youtube scene, and
are inarguably the most famous ant colony on this channel.
Welcome everyone to the Selva de Fuego, the South American biotope river paludarium home
of the Fire Nation, our massive colony of fire ants.
Leave a comment if you're a die hard Fire Nation follower!
I realize there are many of you.
The Dark Knights and the Fire Nation were the very first ant colonies of this ant room,
and it has been amazing to think that with just a single pregnant queen, the colony has
amassed millions and millions of aggressive, hungry, resourceful, and remarkably water-proof
ants.
About 20% of this ant kingdom is composed of a flowing river, matching their native
motherland territories of South America.
In fact, all plants and animals within this kingdom were hand selected for being South
American in origin.
It even has its own waterfall and automatic rain system.
But unfortunately, as you may have heard last week, the Fire Nation is currently facing
yet another crisis which I promised to explain this week.
AC Family, something has happened to their refugium, their hidden water reservoir housing
an extra team of cleaning plants.
I believe there has been a leak.
I don't know how or where the leak happened, but when I had discovered that the soil portion
of the Selva de Fuego was completely flooded and water-logged, I panicked.
I removed the outflow tube from the refugium and connected it directly to the waterfall
to restore the water flow down the river, but what scared me was how much water had
flooded the territories, and my only hope was that the queen had managed to surface
fast enough during the flood.
If she hadn't, the Fire Nation was inescapably doomed.
And as if this wasn't a problem enough, I also noticed that all our guppies, which once
danced within the waters of this river, were missing.
AC Family, our Guppy Gang was nowhere to be seen.
It looks like we have another major crisis to figure out and fix, and I need more time
to work on it, and figure everything out.
I will be sure to update you on everything next week, but meanwhile, leave me your thoughts
in the comments.
Should I replace the refugium or just completely get rid of it?
What do you think happened to the Guppy Gang?
Do you think the colony was able to surface the queen on time, in response to the flood?
As always, the fate of these ants depend on our concerted efforts and collective decisions.
Now with our collective consciousness of over 2 million of us, watching from all around
the world, we form the most powerful and united mass intelligence we've ever been able to
access, much like our beloved ant colonies of the Antiverse do, to problem-solve and
overcome challenges, and I do believe we can save the Selva de Fuego and our Fire Nation.
Crossing fingers, AC Family.
And that, guys, concludes our ultimate tour of the Antiverse, as it exists today, and
as usual, I will continue to do my best to tell all the stories of these ant kingdoms,
as they mind-blowingly unfold before us, so we can gain inspiration from these ants, which
are in many ways, a mirror of ourselves and all of mankind, would you say?
You know, I sometimes wonder, who may be watching us from afar, like a mass consciousness and
observer rooting for us secretly from some expanse of separation, as we manage our way
through worlds they created for us.
Mind-blown!
And at that, I conclude with our motto, which has remained unchanged for 9 years, since
the genesis of this channel, it's ant love forever.

Meghan Markle's dad attacks Duchess: 'I MADE her who she is today' - Duration: 3:25.
The former Hollywood lighting director also unleashed his fury against the Royal Family as he accused them of influencing her decision to freeze him out
Thomas Markle Snr, 74, declared he "just about reached the limit" with the Windsors and the Duchess of Sussex' "superiority" in a bombshell interview released from his home in Rosarito, Mexico, more than 5,000 miles away from Buckingham Palace
Claiming he, as a father, should be shown more respect as he has given Meghan anything he could, Mr Markle told the Mail On Sunday: "She'd be nothing without me
"I made her the Duchess she is today. "Everything that Meghan is, I made her." And in a clear attack against his own daughter who, he said, refuses to speak to him, he added: "What riles me is Meghan's sense of superiority
" Arguing the British royals are attempting to silencing him, Mr Markle continued: "I tell you, I've just about reached my limit with Meghan and the Royal family
"They want me to be silent, they want me to just go away. "But I won't be silenced
"I refuse to stay quiet." Mr Markle is said to have soured relations with the Royal Family when he staged paparazzi pictures ahead of Meghan and Harry's wedding on May 19
And he further worsened them when he broke with protocol as revealed private conversation with Prince Harry during a broadcast interview
In an interview with ITV Good Morning Britain's host Piers Morgan, he claimed the royal told him he is "open to the experiment of Brexit" and believes Donald Trump should be "given a chance"
But despite these fractures with Buckingham Palace, Mr Markle demands Meghan shows him some gratitude
Speaking bitterly about the better relations the Duchess has with her mother Doria Ragland, he said: "Oh, she's a mummy's girl now, and Doria gets a lot of the credit
"But Meghan seems to have forgotten that she lived with me up until Doria and I divorced, when she was six, and even then I was still a big part of her life
"When Meghan was 11, she moved back in with me up until she was 17 and went to college
"I was having my good years then, making good money, and could afford to give her the best, with a good school good education, good home
"She became the woman that she is today thanks to everything I did for her. "And did I get any recognition for it? "Any thanks? "She doesn't even speak to me now
How cold is that?" Kensington Palace told Express.co.uk it would not comment on Mr Markle's remarks

Chibi Tutorial ♡ Part 2 - Making clean lineart and base colors (Paint Tool SAI) - Duration: 10:20.
Hiyo! ♥
Welcome to the second part of my tutorial 'How to draw chibis'
Today we won't talk about coloring and shading yet
because due to lenght of this whole video I had to split my tutorial into 3 parts
1. Sketch 2. Lineart/Colors base 3. Coloring
Nobody said it would be easy (๑˘︶˘๑)
But don't worry - today we're gonna discuss equally important things such as:
making precise lines;
applying base colors;
and working on the layers in multiply and overlay mode.
I hope that some advice will be helpful
Enjoy watching!
So let's start!
We have to start with trying out the brush that we want to use
In previous part I showed you my favourite brush for lines
and I'm gonna work with it today
Check your brush couple of times to make sure that it's exactly as you like
And here's the new notion - stabilizer
Stabilizer helps us to lead our line more precisely, it soften our moves up
it makes our lines more smooth
If you haven't heard about stabilizer before, I really think this tip will be helpful for you!
Since I discovered this parameter my work comfort has changed greatly o v o) /
When I was starting making this lineart I wised up that my chibi doesn't have clothes :D
so I quickly sketched on the new layer her whole outfit
So make sure that you proceed to your lineart with clear, finished sketch
To make your lineart visible you have to push down your sketch
and change its transparency (opacity)
If you've ever watched my speedpaints you might think that I make my lines super fast
Well, the truth is that this whole linearting process is really, really time-consuming and arduous
I really want to make every line really sharp and clean, so sometimes I change it couple of times (okay, SEVERAL DOZEN) (*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ)
I want to show you how it really looks at the normal pace
because all my speedpaints are actually speed up 24 times T ^ T
To be honest, in this tutorial you actually can't see all process in the real time
some parts I've speeded up 2 times because I didn't want to make this tutorials hour-long
because this long usually takes me to finish my lineart
sooo some parts are accelerated
but of course it isn't the same as you can see on my speedpaints
As you can see I've just finished linearting the skin
and I'm organizing all my layers.
And let's talk about this really important routine
if you gets this habit of organizing your layers your coming work will so much easier!
If you want to change anything in your chibi, having this organized folders and layers will help you to find the exact part of your lineart.
As you can see I created this folder 'lines' and I'm adding next layers in certain order
sequentially: skin, eyes, skin, outfit; each element separately on another layer
Making lineart this way can help you to speed up your work a little bit because you don't have to actually look for the layer you need at the moment
This rule apply for more than chibis, you can use for all type of drawings
unless you want to create one-layer painting, it's also perfectly fine
but for my part I really love having this control of every layer Q v Q
I change things really often so this rule can really save me some time.
I said it before but I'm gonna flog it to death T v T
Don't be afraid to change something - if you see some anatomy/proportion mistake change it afap
because later on it will be really difficult to actually redo something covered in color
While finishing your lineart check out couple of times if everything look as good as you want it in the final result
Have I mentioned something about order and how important it is? T v T
As you can see I'm creating new folder 'colors'
because I'm gonna start making color base for my chibi
tbh you can name your folder as you want; actually you can call it 'corgi butt' and as long as you know what is it, you are fine :DDD
Okay, now I'm gonna tell you my little secret how to apply base colors quickly...
but you have to promise me that you won't tell the world about it! @ v @
There's something called 'selection source'
What does it mean?
I like to explain it as 'blocking layer';
in this case we want to block all edges of our lineart
Because we actually created the folder for all our lines, we can check this 'selection source' mode only once, not for each layer separately
with this mode we can actually fill our lines in with the bucket tool! Isn't it great? (๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ
But you have to remember that your lineart has to be closed;
otherwise bucket tool will fill in your whole drawing, not the given area
Here you can actually see that at some points my lineart won't fill in properly
that's why I'm using my regular brush pen to actually find the gap.
Before I discovered 'selection source' I put all the colors with my regular brush and, oh boy, it was time-consuming and super boring ;; ^ ;;
So I hope with this quick tip I can actually help you with putting these base colors a little bit faster ♥
As you can see, I'm creating new base colors but they won't interrupting previous colors
that's because every next layer I create BELOW the previous ones.
This way you don't have to worry that e.g. eyes will cover skin and so on
Once more - if you keep organizing all the layers everything's gonna be okay 。゚(TヮT)゚。
If some color is actually covering the previous layer - that means that the sequence isn't right
I don't want to bore you so I'm gonna fill in my base the same way as before~ ♥
If you actually put dark color (like her overalls in this case) you can actually turn off the layer with temporary background
In this way you'll be able to see the contrast better and you won't leave any imperfection ^ v ^
Thanks to our amazing order we can set whole lineart folder to 'multiply mode' T v T
I really like using this mode because it gives this feeling of nice and soft colored lines
We don't have to color each line separately - this tool actually do it for you, picking the color underneath
After finishing my lines I like to play with all the settings available on SAI
saturation, hue, brightness, contrast;
to see what's the best configuration for my chibi @ v @
I really want to encourage you to experiment with all settings -
you can actually discover something which makes your chibis look much better!
Another quick tip I want to show you is actually coloring the outline of eyes
Bottom lashes I like to make a little more bright
when it comes to upper lashes I'm making here new layer, which I'm clipping to 'eyes'
when you set it to overlay mode and pick the skin color, you can actually make this cute, shiny effect on the end of your chibi lashes
OKAY, IT'S HARD TO EXPLAIN IT PROPERLY, SO JUST WATCH : DDD
Okay, so much for this part! ♥
Our lines and base colors are already finished
and I hope you had fun watching this tutorial!
I promise next time we're gonna talk about coloring! : D
See you next week!! xoxo ♥ ♥ ♥

RANGE TEST | Flysky GT3C Antenna MOD Signal Booster To Improve Reception - Duration: 3:38.
hello everyone thank you for watching a new episode of how to DIY Rc flysky gt3c range test after we did the range mod in the last episode
with a new antenna a longer and improve antenna that sits a lot higher of the Rc car so we get a better signal reception
with the radio and hopefully, we get a lot more range so let's go and test it out
always point the antenna up from the transmitter so you get the best signal reception with the car so let's go
it's so far away i can't see it anymore we broke the record let's count the step and see how much more range we get from this antenna upgrade
and let's hope we have double the range
1,2,3,4,
this is where we found the wltoys k989 with the last range test with a stock fs-gr3e receiver
but the car is all the way over there almost double the range so let's continue 101,102,013,104
101,102,103,104, that means we have 204 meters that is really good we like the new range we have it's amazing with just upgrading the antenna from the receiver
we still can upgrade the antenna from the transmitter + there is a small issue the ESC and receiver are so close together
The ESC noize shortens the range of the receiver so if you can have more distance between the ESC and receiver you get more range
but just a simple good antenna on the receiver with that little extra metal piece at the top and you double the range
204 meters we really hope you like this episode and if you like the car than check out the 200 subs free giveaway
where you have a chance to win a brand new wltoys k989 send to you if you win so we hope you like and subscribe and enter for the giveaway
hope to see you next time thank you all for watching and goodbye!

Man Utd transfer news: Jose Mourinho reveals request to Ed Woodward after Liverpool defeat - Duration: 3:13.
Manchester United have signed three players this summer - Diogo Dalot, Lee Grant and Fred - but Mourinho has made clear he wants further additions before the transfer window closes on August 9
Deals for the likes of Toby Alderweireld and Harry Maguire have not progressed while Matteo Darmian remains a United player despite stating his desire to leave
With several players missing due to injury and rest after the World Cup, Mourinho's United were beaten 4-1 by Liverpool in a pre-season match last night in America
And speaking after the match, Mourinho opened up about his hopes for at least one more new player before the season kicks off on August 10
"I would like to have two more players," Mourinho said. "I think I am not going to have two, I think it is possible I am going to have one, is possible
"And that one I gave a list to my club five names a few months ago and I wait to see if it's possible to have one of these players
"If it's possible it's possible, if it's not possible, it's not possible. If it is possible good, if it is not possible we keep fighting and working and believing in the players that we have
"This [the defeat to Liverpool] is nothing to do with reinforcements, the reinforcement is Pogba, Fellaini, Lindelof, Marcus Rashford, Jesse Lingard, Matic, Antonio Valencia, these are reinforcements
"This is not our team, this is not our squad, we start the game with almost half of the players, they aren't going to belong to our squad
On August 9, many of them are not going to be here. This is not our squad. "Reinforcements? You are saying players I'd like to buy, like to add to the squad, that is another thing but this is not my squad, this is not even half of my squad, this is not even 30 per cent of my squad, so don't look to this that way
"You can ask with all your players you still want new players, that's another question but in relation to today we have four or five players that are dead because they care for the club, they care for the team, they try to give everything, even risking themselves because they don't want to let all the kids by themselves on the pitch against Milan, Liverpool and Real Madrid
They don't want to do that."
