24
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:11.000

25
00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:15.120

and amen and amen and amend woo. It has been

29
00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:32.000
the past couple of weeks, the past couple of days,

30
00:02:32.439 --> 00:02:36.479
the past couple of hours. Oh, if you were on

31
00:02:36.520 --> 00:02:41.960
the wrong side, you would be aging. You would be aging.

32
00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:46.680
This week you would be aging. There'll be more grace

33
00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:50.319
fits and stuff on your head, there would be more.

34
00:02:50.479 --> 00:02:52.680
Oh my god, I gotta drink more coffee. Oh my god,

35
00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:54.759
I think I'm in a panic attack. Oh my god,

36
00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:58.360
I'm anxious for nothing. Oh my god, Oh my god.

37
00:02:58.759 --> 00:03:02.800
Many people call on God this week. Many people called

38
00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:08.439
on God this week. Many people called on God. But

39
00:03:08.520 --> 00:03:12.159
we're thankful. We're thankful here in Florida. We know that

40
00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:16.479
the prayers were going one thousand miles a minute for us,

41
00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:21.680
and we thank you. I tell you, you know, it's

42
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:25.879
it's it's it was it's something, it's something, and we

43
00:03:26.039 --> 00:03:29.560
just give him praise and honor. I was at an

44
00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:32.360
event last night as the MC and the first thing

45
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:35.479
I did was to ask. I asked the host if

46
00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:37.919
we could but prior to but, I said, we need

47
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:41.680
to do a moment of silence, because we everybody did.

48
00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:47.520
Somebody lost something, whether it was power, time, water, food,

49
00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:52.000
a person, an individual, little pet. Somebody lost a tree,

50
00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:55.280
the fruit tree, you know, lost a roof, somebody lost

51
00:03:55.639 --> 00:04:01.360
something in these last few days, and just just a moment,

52
00:04:01.719 --> 00:04:04.879
just just breathe and I could feel the air. Hey,

53
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:07.639
we're glad y'all. A good thank you country, see good evening,

54
00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:15.199
thank you. Yeah. Yeah, And tonight we're talking about aging

55
00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:20.199
at your best when it's not about a number. I

56
00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:24.000
know we always went, well, this is what I can't stand.

57
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:27.560
Here's a pet peeve, and we'll give you a little nugget. Well,

58
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:30.360
how old was she? Well she was eighty eight years old.

59
00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:32.439
She lived a good life. Who wha, whoa, whoa, whoa,

60
00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:34.800
whoa whoa whoah woh. I got ancestors that lived to

61
00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:38.319
be over one hundred, So I got biblical ancestors that

62
00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:40.360
lived to be nine hundreds. So wait a minute, now,

63
00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:44.920
just because she was eighty eight doesn't mean that it

64
00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:47.800
was her age that took her, you know, allows her

65
00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:51.519
to transition. It was just probably her time up. That's

66
00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:54.519
I guess. We don't know what kind of life. And

67
00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:56.800
I go into this whole litany of well, how did

68
00:04:56.839 --> 00:05:00.360
they live, you know, what were their beliefs, what was

69
00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:04.199
their faith? Did they have faith? You know? So I

70
00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:11.560
want to talk gently about aging at your best, being

71
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:15.639
your best. I just received a beautiful compliment the daughter

72
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:19.439
of my wound care nurse and I keep in touch,

73
00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:23.199
and she's making something for me, and I sent her

74
00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:26.360
some pictures, recent pictures of me doing some things, and

75
00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:31.240
she said, miss Gray, you just I know, she's shaking

76
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:32.720
her head and she's saying that she goes you just

77
00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:35.600
you just amazed me because the last time she saw me,

78
00:05:35.720 --> 00:05:40.160
I was in my lift chair, still bandaged up from

79
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:45.240
my surgeries and from the amputations, and I had her

80
00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:46.879
to come in, and you know, I wanted to meet her.

81
00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:51.000
And she's a social worker, she's going to school for

82
00:05:51.079 --> 00:05:53.879
social work. I had nothing to do with that. It

83
00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:58.480
just so happened. But you know, she's like, wow, she

84
00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:00.879
just looked at the pictures. She goes, this is amazing,

85
00:06:01.519 --> 00:06:04.240
This is amazing. No one get wants to age, but

86
00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:07.040
if you could do it gracefully, it would be best. Yes, missy,

87
00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:12.560
miss d Z is here in the house. Halelujah. Yes

88
00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:15.160
you're right. But you got to make up your mind

89
00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:18.480
how you're going to live. And it goes back to

90
00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:25.160
that phrase how you living? How you living? If you're

91
00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:28.600
living rough and tough and you know, business as usual,

92
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:35.160
how are you living? What are you doing differently? Okay,

93
00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:37.319
you knew that there are things of the DNA. You

94
00:06:37.399 --> 00:06:39.319
knew that the things are in the family. We got

95
00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:41.839
blood high blood person, we got cardiac issues, we got

96
00:06:41.879 --> 00:06:45.319
heart attacks, we got this. Okay, So when do you

97
00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:48.040
decide that you don't want to be a part of that?

98
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:54.120
When do you decide that I already know. I was

99
00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:57.959
thinking today ironically about my aunts on both sides of

100
00:06:58.000 --> 00:07:02.160
my biological family, that all of a sudden, after they

101
00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:05.720
hit like sixty, they begin to have all of these

102
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:10.040
medical problems coming from left right. I'm like, she got one. Now,

103
00:07:10.519 --> 00:07:13.319
not what I need to be doing exactly. Hey, Mikky,

104
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:19.279
you know, and I'm like, where did this come from?

105
00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:22.439
It's like it was sitting there waiting and the moment

106
00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:28.199
they had their sixtieth birthday. Whoosh, it just came from nowhere.

107
00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:33.319
How are you living? What are you? What are you allowing?

108
00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:36.800
What are you not allowing?

109
00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:37.680
You know?

110
00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:43.720
What are you telling yourself? What are your thoughts? What

111
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:52.319
are your conversations with yourself? That's what's what. That's that's

112
00:07:52.519 --> 00:07:56.800
that's important because we all talk to ourselves, don't and

113
00:07:56.959 --> 00:07:59.600
we hear voices. So don't get there those those sorry

114
00:07:59.639 --> 00:08:02.439
tripping By the time you leaving the house, you wonder

115
00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:04.240
now did I cut the stove off? I had the

116
00:08:04.319 --> 00:08:08.519
coffee maker on? Now was she supposed to come home? Well?

117
00:08:08.560 --> 00:08:10.360
One time? Wait a minute, this is a late night.

118
00:08:10.519 --> 00:08:14.600
But you talking to yourself. So I'm driving by you,

119
00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:17.040
I'm looking over you, just having a full flashed conversation.

120
00:08:17.319 --> 00:08:19.079
The only thing I don't know is who you're talking to?

121
00:08:19.319 --> 00:08:21.800
Are you on the phone? But you're talking because you're like,

122
00:08:22.439 --> 00:08:25.040
did I many times? How many times I had to

123
00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:27.240
turn around to make a U turn because I wasn't

124
00:08:27.240 --> 00:08:32.720
sure the garage door went that? So we all talked

125
00:08:32.759 --> 00:08:34.840
to ourselves. So let's get over that, all right. It's

126
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:36.399
just some of us know when to turn it off.

127
00:08:37.399 --> 00:08:42.360
Some of us need help doing that simple. But what

128
00:08:42.440 --> 00:08:47.639
are you telling yourself? What are you telling yourself? But

129
00:08:47.799 --> 00:08:50.919
you sold some of us, not y'all, not our viewers,

130
00:08:51.240 --> 00:08:54.039
not the folks on here, not our engineer in the

131
00:08:54.120 --> 00:08:56.200
back back there. I'm not talking to y'all. I'm just

132
00:08:56.320 --> 00:08:58.759
saying for the folks who's gonna see this in the future.

133
00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:03.480
What you know, you know what to do?

134
00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:07.799
Very true? Hey station, Hey, you're right, probably not what

135
00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:10.799
we need to be doing. You gotta stop it. You

136
00:09:10.919 --> 00:09:13.519
gotta stop it. Either you want to live long and

137
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:17.440
prosper in the words of Spock, or you just want

138
00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:19.960
to say, you know, you want somebody to feel sorry

139
00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:26.480
for you and you want to have this lifelong commentary. No,

140
00:09:26.679 --> 00:09:30.200
that's not my narrative. No, I'm okay, thank you for

141
00:09:30.320 --> 00:09:32.960
telling me the history of the family, but that is

142
00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:36.360
not It stops with me. And I heard a prophet

143
00:09:36.559 --> 00:09:40.759
confirmed that today. The reason why God is letting you

144
00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:43.879
know of these health issues and all these things in

145
00:09:43.960 --> 00:09:46.639
your family, it comes for your daddy's side, it comes

146
00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:49.639
from your mother's side. But you're here to stop the

147
00:09:49.799 --> 00:09:55.840
generational curse. And that's what a generational curse is It

148
00:09:56.000 --> 00:09:59.559
comes through the generations. Most of the time you don't know.

149
00:10:02.120 --> 00:10:03.600
You hit a certain age and all of a sudden,

150
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:07.600
you left me just goes out. It just goes like,

151
00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:11.440
what happened. I'm working out and I'm doing this, I'm

152
00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:14.480
eating have them taking my supplements. I eat three salads

153
00:10:14.519 --> 00:10:17.360
a week. Wait a minute, my knee. Then you go

154
00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:19.519
to the you can't walk. Then you get to the doctor.

155
00:10:19.600 --> 00:10:23.039
The doctor says, you're to the arthrow guy or gal.

156
00:10:23.320 --> 00:10:24.919
And then they do X ray saying, oh, yeah, your

157
00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:30.360
knee cap has deteriorated. What that which is suppot to

158
00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:33.159
help the bearding and knee and everything. But guess what,

159
00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:38.639
you knew Uncle Joe had the same problem and you

160
00:10:38.879 --> 00:10:42.240
kind of was around the age that he the history

161
00:10:42.320 --> 00:10:44.720
of the family. They started talking about luck your uncle

162
00:10:44.799 --> 00:10:50.000
Joe had some knee problems. Oh thanks, uncle Joe. But

163
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:52.159
you can't blame uncle Joe. What you doing about it?

164
00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:57.759
The Bible says in Psalms one, O, three and five,

165
00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:02.360
I believe pastor please check me. I'll renew your youth

166
00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:06.840
like the Eagle. And it's more that God says on

167
00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:11.480
that isn't Psalms. I renew your youth like the egle.

168
00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:15.440
What does that mean? If you believe in him, you

169
00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:18.159
gotta ask him to and you thank him as well

170
00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:20.360
when people get The young lady gave me a compliment.

171
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:22.320
That's what I put in the text. Yes, you know

172
00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:26.440
that's God just renewing my youth like the eagle. She said,

173
00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:29.600
you look great. You don't look you look great. My

174
00:11:29.720 --> 00:11:31.759
kids are saying to me mine, you don't look your age.

175
00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:34.399
I said, well, thank you, y'all. Just try to store

176
00:11:34.480 --> 00:11:36.240
up on the Christmas gifts, aren't you'll? I know what

177
00:11:36.320 --> 00:11:40.840
y'all trying to do. I raised y'all, I gave birth ticket.

178
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:45.240
I know you're looking at you. But ironically, on both

179
00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:49.519
sides of my grandmothers were wrinkled at all. Their skin

180
00:11:49.840 --> 00:11:52.879
was very well preserved, their hair was very well. They

181
00:11:52.879 --> 00:11:56.799
didn't lose hair. They great up, but they didn't lose hair.

182
00:11:58.039 --> 00:12:00.639
And I believe they had their natural teeth the rest

183
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:05.320
of them. So you know, I've got, I've got. And

184
00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:07.120
I had to say, oh my God, because I'm always

185
00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:09.879
talking about I hold the lives of three lineages, three

186
00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:13.200
sets of family together. No, it's about legacy, and it's

187
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:20.840
also about breaking generational curses. That's why I'm here. That's

188
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:25.200
why I'm here. He brought me back. I know better.

189
00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:32.000
I know better. So aging sir, did you did you?

190
00:12:32.679 --> 00:12:35.120
Was I correct in this? In the in the okay,

191
00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:38.759
the whole thing? Please if you don't mind, like we

192
00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:44.600
were Sunday School, could you read the whole please?

193
00:12:47.879 --> 00:12:50.600
You you are a King James person, so I'll read

194
00:12:50.639 --> 00:12:52.039
it through King James.

195
00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:52.759
Okay.

196
00:12:53.759 --> 00:12:57.919
He satisfie thy mouth with good things, so that thy

197
00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:00.879
youth is renewed like the eagles.

198
00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:09.000
Our God, our God wants to do that for us.

199
00:13:10.080 --> 00:13:12.919
He don't want us hurting, He don't want us limping.

200
00:13:13.279 --> 00:13:17.639
He doesn't because we represent him. We said, we believe

201
00:13:17.679 --> 00:13:23.519
in him. And yes we freak out, you know, pastor

202
00:13:23.639 --> 00:13:25.919
with the blood pressure and me over here trying to

203
00:13:25.960 --> 00:13:28.080
get my balance and stuff, like I'm sure trade got

204
00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:30.879
a story or two where she just like totally lost it,

205
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:33.919
like why is this happening to me? Where did this

206
00:13:34.240 --> 00:13:37.320
come from? We've had those. You're gonna have my audience,

207
00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:40.320
my beautiful audience, my engineer. We all have it. We

208
00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:44.120
got it, we've had it. But then God wants to

209
00:13:44.200 --> 00:13:45.679
kick it back to He said, with what you doing

210
00:13:45.759 --> 00:13:51.240
about it? God said, don't put all this on me.

211
00:13:51.360 --> 00:13:54.080
We you know, I say, you know, my burden is easy.

212
00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:55.840
You know my yok is easy, My burden is light.

213
00:13:55.879 --> 00:13:58.399
I'll remove your shoulders from the burden, but the burden

214
00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:01.440
will still be there. The history will still be there,

215
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:05.759
the narrative will still be there, the DNA is still there.

216
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:09.960
Now that you know all of this, what we did,

217
00:14:10.080 --> 00:14:15.480
what you're doing about it, what you're doing about it.

218
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:21.600
And another piece of this God was talking about I

219
00:14:21.639 --> 00:14:23.919
don't know if he was just having these conversations with

220
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:28.440
me about people and borrowing money. And you know, I

221
00:14:28.879 --> 00:14:31.919
love all and I know somebody's gonna who who has

222
00:14:32.039 --> 00:14:34.799
borrowed money gonna hear this, so hear my heart. Let

223
00:14:34.879 --> 00:14:37.799
me tell you something, I don't care who you are.

224
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:42.559
If you had to borrow money, you didn't have enough

225
00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:45.879
to meet whatever the bill or whatever the situation came up.

226
00:14:45.919 --> 00:14:49.200
And emergencies do happen. Some of us try to have

227
00:14:49.320 --> 00:14:52.200
a little safety safety kid on the side. We try

228
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:54.200
to put a little piece of money along the side.

229
00:14:54.320 --> 00:14:56.639
Especially if you have a vehicle that's not new, You're

230
00:14:56.639 --> 00:14:58.600
gonna put some money to the side. So just a

231
00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:02.000
case I tire or battle something, just in case. That's

232
00:15:02.399 --> 00:15:07.080
how you should be living, just in case. But you

233
00:15:07.240 --> 00:15:10.600
have to understand something. God gave me things. He's told

234
00:15:10.639 --> 00:15:14.120
me today. He said, please tell my people that when

235
00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:20.039
people borrow money, if you think that they're reputable of

236
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:22.120
death and they're gonna pay it back, then go ahead

237
00:15:22.120 --> 00:15:25.720
and do a promise. There, I regrettedly say, nowhere near enough.

238
00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:28.960
I need to get better with things. Hey, Charles, thank

239
00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:33.639
you for joining us today. Please know that the person

240
00:15:34.279 --> 00:15:37.799
borrowing the money didn't have it, can't make it out,

241
00:15:38.039 --> 00:15:40.879
can't go and get it, can't get it, can't borrow

242
00:15:40.919 --> 00:15:43.399
it from nobody else. They had no other choice but

243
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:50.679
to call you. Okay, either you give it to them

244
00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:57.360
with no strings attached, you can't even bring it up anymore,

245
00:15:59.480 --> 00:16:02.120
or you do it promisary, hoping that they will pay

246
00:16:02.159 --> 00:16:06.320
you back. But you got to stop talking about it.

247
00:16:07.720 --> 00:16:09.759
You can't tell it. You don't need to tell everybody. Oh,

248
00:16:09.919 --> 00:16:12.519
this person owed me. This person there was a young

249
00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:15.519
a young man I guess he was. I was on Facebook,

250
00:16:16.159 --> 00:16:19.039
shared something a story. He went in the story, he

251
00:16:19.080 --> 00:16:20.960
saw the man, older man sitting at the door, and

252
00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:23.120
so he went on in and he came out and

253
00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:25.000
he said, I got a few dogs. I had a

254
00:16:25.080 --> 00:16:27.600
few singles on me, and he gave it to the gentleman,

255
00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:30.480
the older man, and he said, Sir, I got to

256
00:16:30.559 --> 00:16:34.679
ask you, why how did you get here? What brought

257
00:16:34.759 --> 00:16:38.320
you here? What did you do? He said? I was

258
00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:44.480
too nice. Anytime anybody needed anything, I had it, I

259
00:16:44.679 --> 00:16:49.840
gave it. I didn't ask nothing, wasn't expecting nothing in return,

260
00:16:50.039 --> 00:16:52.960
only that if I ever fell on my bad luck,

261
00:16:54.279 --> 00:16:58.279
those people that I helped would have done whatever they

262
00:16:58.360 --> 00:17:01.840
could to help me. I've given the shirt off my back,

263
00:17:02.000 --> 00:17:04.720
and no one would even give me a sleeve to

264
00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:09.000
the shirt. So he said, young man, be careful what

265
00:17:09.119 --> 00:17:14.160
you do, and be careful who you help. And then

266
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:16.559
Lord the Lord expounded upon that. He said, yeah you,

267
00:17:17.759 --> 00:17:20.359
he said, nowhere am I my word? Do I tell

268
00:17:20.400 --> 00:17:25.319
you all to go borrow? I don't tell you to

269
00:17:25.400 --> 00:17:27.440
go and look at the other account on other people?

270
00:17:27.720 --> 00:17:30.519
I say, really the opposite. Don't count on no man.

271
00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:33.559
I had to tell my oldest Sunday the other night.

272
00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:36.599
I said, you got to know, you got to trust God,

273
00:17:36.799 --> 00:17:39.720
Jesus in the Holy Spirit. That's what the problem mind

274
00:17:39.759 --> 00:17:42.720
is making people asking. But they could go out and

275
00:17:42.839 --> 00:17:44.920
make it right and then you let them go on

276
00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:47.920
out and make it because what the other person coming

277
00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:49.880
behind you going to give them a couple of dollars

278
00:17:50.359 --> 00:17:52.599
and they'll go get their beer whatever. One guy had

279
00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:55.359
the little sign I need food. Okay, well that's thank

280
00:17:55.400 --> 00:18:00.119
you for being honest. Thank you for being honest. But

281
00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:05.799
I'm not. I don't know. And I said to my son,

282
00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:07.359
my oldest son, there in the night, I said, you

283
00:18:07.440 --> 00:18:11.720
got to trust God. Time is winding up to where

284
00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:14.039
you're not gonna get a chance, even the chosen not

285
00:18:14.119 --> 00:18:17.039
gonna get a chance to really straighten it out. That's

286
00:18:17.160 --> 00:18:20.480
my opinion, because God said I got to keep moving.

287
00:18:20.519 --> 00:18:23.079
I got to build my kingdom. And those that are lost,

288
00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:26.119
that are chosen, that I deemed chosen, I got to

289
00:18:26.200 --> 00:18:29.960
get them on the right path. And I said, because

290
00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:32.000
that's why the Bible said trust No man, I said,

291
00:18:32.000 --> 00:18:35.319
you can't even trust me because I could get in

292
00:18:35.400 --> 00:18:43.200
my flesh, yeah, and lock everybody out. And I got

293
00:18:43.240 --> 00:18:45.960
good kids. But don't get it twisted. You're not gonna

294
00:18:45.960 --> 00:18:50.160
take me for granted. You're not gonna take advantage of me. No. No,

295
00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:56.039
So getting back to aging, and I think this was

296
00:18:56.119 --> 00:18:59.640
what ages a lot of people because people worry a

297
00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:03.720
heck of a lot when they don't need to. Is

298
00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:07.920
it your fight, it's just your fight, a meen. Is

299
00:19:08.000 --> 00:19:12.759
it your fight? Is it your war? Who told you

300
00:19:13.000 --> 00:19:16.960
was yours? Is that your battle? You're getting in the

301
00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:19.680
front of the line. Try to protect everybody who told

302
00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:25.720
you to do that, who told you you're aging. Yes,

303
00:19:26.200 --> 00:19:28.039
part of it could be the DNA. Because you didn't

304
00:19:28.039 --> 00:19:31.599
come up and you didn't curse, you didn't bind inoperable.

305
00:19:34.480 --> 00:19:38.200
That what you know could definitely land in your lap.

306
00:19:39.759 --> 00:19:43.640
Your family didn't handle money well, So you should be

307
00:19:43.680 --> 00:19:45.519
a law. As you're getting to know Jesus Christ and

308
00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:49.680
you reading your word, I bind inoperable the spirit of poverty,

309
00:19:50.319 --> 00:19:57.440
the spirit of poverty poplished and poplished mindset. I bind inoperable,

310
00:19:57.559 --> 00:20:02.240
being vulnerable. I've bind inoperable the way I look at money,

311
00:20:05.839 --> 00:20:08.039
the way I choose people to be in my life

312
00:20:08.119 --> 00:20:09.960
or allow people to be in my life. You have

313
00:20:10.079 --> 00:20:13.319
to bind and loose. Pastor if you can find that scripture,

314
00:20:13.359 --> 00:20:14.200
I would appreciate it.

315
00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:19.079
When you get a minute, I'm looking for the other one.

316
00:20:19.960 --> 00:20:29.359
Okay, okay, Well, help find binding and loosening. Because the

317
00:20:29.440 --> 00:20:32.880
Bible said whatever you bind on Earth is bound in heaven.

318
00:20:33.039 --> 00:20:36.279
And whenever you're loose on earth, he's loose on Heaven.

319
00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:40.039
Heaven on you. That's Matthew sixteen.

320
00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:46.359
Okay, thank you. Heaven is listening. The angels are listening.

321
00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:49.480
They're taking their cues from you. They look at that God.

322
00:20:49.640 --> 00:20:54.039
God's like, you know, do what they say so you

323
00:20:54.160 --> 00:21:00.640
get aged gracefully. There are some people and some people

324
00:21:01.240 --> 00:21:09.039
having a financial uh huh foundation. These people were raised

325
00:21:09.200 --> 00:21:13.839
with money foundations. Most of them who still have been

326
00:21:13.880 --> 00:21:19.039
able to recreate and repurpose their money and the way

327
00:21:19.079 --> 00:21:21.799
they invest so the way that how they spend their money.

328
00:21:22.559 --> 00:21:29.039
They were taught that by watching their own family ranchers.

329
00:21:29.839 --> 00:21:32.079
They grew up on the ranch. They watch how they

330
00:21:32.440 --> 00:21:35.160
their parent would get up early in the morning and

331
00:21:35.480 --> 00:21:38.319
tend to the cows and tend to the sheep and everything.

332
00:21:38.519 --> 00:21:40.279
So of course when it was passed over them, they

333
00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:43.599
did the same thing. Some of us didn't have that

334
00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:47.160
I've shared with you that my parents thought that you know, you,

335
00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:49.240
when you turn at you need to get a serious

336
00:21:49.359 --> 00:21:52.359
charge card and a Western Auto charge card. I know

337
00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:57.880
I am really aging myself right now. Serious well, Serious

338
00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:01.400
is now closed. The Western Firestone took over Western Auto

339
00:22:01.640 --> 00:22:05.200
type of thing, advanced auto parts. They took over Western Auno.

340
00:22:05.720 --> 00:22:08.119
And I think I got a keyboard from Christmas from

341
00:22:08.160 --> 00:22:10.559
Western Auto one time. Don'tay, I'm not gonna go back anyway.

342
00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:13.119
I'm going back and let me stay on point here.

343
00:22:13.880 --> 00:22:16.519
But and I got a serious charge card along with

344
00:22:16.599 --> 00:22:20.680
my voters registration card at my driver's license, and seers

345
00:22:20.720 --> 00:22:25.119
almost took me out of here, almost took me out

346
00:22:25.160 --> 00:22:32.240
of here. Come on, now, you know, and some of

347
00:22:32.359 --> 00:22:35.119
us were raised with parents. Every little nickel and dime

348
00:22:35.240 --> 00:22:37.920
that came in, they they took every nickel and dime.

349
00:22:38.559 --> 00:22:40.799
They did they That's how they did it, and they

350
00:22:40.920 --> 00:22:43.440
made it work for them. But something told me, I

351
00:22:43.559 --> 00:22:45.599
think that the funny part. God has a sense of

352
00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:49.279
humor for God to lead my mother to put me

353
00:22:49.400 --> 00:22:51.319
in private school. Let me tell you something about the

354
00:22:51.359 --> 00:22:53.920
Catholic people. Okay, I'm not. Let me tell you about

355
00:22:53.920 --> 00:22:57.319
private school setting those student Even though those kids, my team,

356
00:22:57.480 --> 00:23:01.400
my classmates, hated to be Catholic. Hat new New New

357
00:23:01.480 --> 00:23:05.440
Testament class, Old Testament class hated it. And I'm looking

358
00:23:05.480 --> 00:23:07.920
at them, I'm loving it. I'm learning about the Bible.

359
00:23:09.960 --> 00:23:12.480
But it was nothing there was one family. I'm not

360
00:23:12.480 --> 00:23:15.319
gonna say his name because they are still very viable

361
00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:19.160
to my hometown. But this this football player used to

362
00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:22.319
wreck his little sports car every Friday and Monday. He

363
00:23:22.440 --> 00:23:27.480
came to school with a new car. I don't know

364
00:23:27.480 --> 00:23:29.400
if he lets his kids do that to him not,

365
00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:35.400
but we just look at him like, wow, Okay, I'm

366
00:23:35.440 --> 00:23:38.519
still talking about aging gracefully passing. You found something.

367
00:23:40.119 --> 00:23:44.599
Well yesterday, it's interesting that you you brought up how

368
00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:49.400
we are needing to defend our you know, it's not

369
00:23:49.559 --> 00:23:58.240
our fight. And it's interesting because in Second Chronicles, there

370
00:23:58.400 --> 00:24:01.519
was there was going to be an attack on Jerusalem.

371
00:24:02.680 --> 00:24:06.960
I mean, this was going to be The numbers were

372
00:24:07.079 --> 00:24:15.960
just too incredible, and immediately the citizens were like beside

373
00:24:16.039 --> 00:24:20.000
themselves because of the enormity of that was coming to

374
00:24:20.079 --> 00:24:24.680
attack them. And what's so interesting is that we would

375
00:24:24.720 --> 00:24:28.599
have all of you know, there were people who would say, well,

376
00:24:28.640 --> 00:24:31.839
I would put the strongest on the front line or

377
00:24:31.880 --> 00:24:35.160
the weakest on the front line, and then the strongest

378
00:24:35.200 --> 00:24:37.759
would would come from behind, so this way when they're

379
00:24:37.799 --> 00:24:40.680
weak and all that. But what's so interesting is that

380
00:24:40.799 --> 00:24:46.400
when God fights the battle. When God fights the battle,

381
00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:53.680
I mean he puts people on the front line that

382
00:24:53.839 --> 00:25:02.920
you're like, seriously, I mean, I'm not making this up here.

383
00:25:03.000 --> 00:25:03.279
It is.

384
00:25:03.839 --> 00:25:08.000
Here is I'm making this up. Here's your front line.

385
00:25:09.440 --> 00:25:13.319
You came to Jerusalem with harps, liars and trumpets to

386
00:25:13.440 --> 00:25:21.119
the House of the Lord. They were praising God. They

387
00:25:21.240 --> 00:25:26.079
weren't praising God. And what happened to the people who

388
00:25:26.119 --> 00:25:33.480
were attacking themselves? And now one life was lost?

389
00:25:34.720 --> 00:25:34.920
Why?

390
00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:37.880
Because God was fighting the battle.

391
00:25:41.200 --> 00:25:45.160
Amen, you can't make this stuff.

392
00:25:46.039 --> 00:25:51.000
Nope, No, somebody was writing all this and I'm sure

393
00:25:51.119 --> 00:25:53.839
the person who was writing, like, oh my gosh, he's

394
00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:59.160
putting people going trumpets and playing a guitar. Oh, they're

395
00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:07.240
going to die. They killed each other. This is, this is,

396
00:26:07.440 --> 00:26:12.559
this is, this is where we've always been. We've been

397
00:26:12.640 --> 00:26:18.559
discussing it with everybody. You know, if God starts to worry,

398
00:26:18.839 --> 00:26:26.200
I begin to worry. God doesn't worry. Even Jesus said,

399
00:26:26.400 --> 00:26:29.960
don't worry for tomorrow because tomorrow will have its own headaches.

400
00:26:30.079 --> 00:26:37.279
Focused today. So when you know, and and you know,

401
00:26:37.400 --> 00:26:40.480
I'm very thankful and I and I give all the

402
00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:46.039
glory to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Because the

403
00:26:46.200 --> 00:26:52.640
churches were this was my prayer on last Monday, when

404
00:26:52.960 --> 00:26:57.240
when we knew the storm was coming, all we prayed was, Lord,

405
00:26:58.039 --> 00:27:02.160
the storm is gonna come, The storm is gonna come.

406
00:27:04.000 --> 00:27:07.720
Just loosen the intensity a little bit, give us a

407
00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:13.559
fighting chance, give us a chance. And then it went

408
00:27:13.599 --> 00:27:19.160
from a five to a four to three when it

409
00:27:19.240 --> 00:27:23.359
made landfall, and by the time it was over Orlando,

410
00:27:24.160 --> 00:27:29.720
it was a one. Now this is this is what

411
00:27:29.880 --> 00:27:37.240
I mean by when you walk with the Lord, have

412
00:27:37.359 --> 00:27:44.440
an intimate relationship with the Lord, when you are feeding,

413
00:27:45.000 --> 00:27:49.839
eating his words and putting it into your spirit, It's

414
00:27:49.880 --> 00:27:53.839
gonna take care of you. My daughter and son in

415
00:27:53.960 --> 00:27:59.920
law live in Sarasota. The eye the eye went over

416
00:28:00.039 --> 00:28:05.519
over cs the key where he works, so that means

417
00:28:05.559 --> 00:28:10.720
that they got the eye wall. As we speak, I

418
00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:16.440
just got the text. They arrived home. The only thing

419
00:28:16.519 --> 00:28:21.519
that they lost in their apartment was the power. But

420
00:28:21.680 --> 00:28:28.640
the neighborhood look like Hiroshima bomb went off, So again

421
00:28:29.400 --> 00:28:34.759
they came here. They came here because they felt safe here.

422
00:28:35.519 --> 00:28:39.480
And I said, don't it's not me. This is God's house.

423
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:47.200
And because we live, breathe, eat, talk, act under God's

424
00:28:48.680 --> 00:28:50.279
teachings and righteousness.

425
00:28:51.920 --> 00:28:58.200
This is on Him, not on me his credibility, not me.

426
00:28:58.920 --> 00:29:02.880
They to be told that the only thing they lost

427
00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:03.720
was electricity.

428
00:29:04.000 --> 00:29:05.200
I said, that was all God.

429
00:29:07.359 --> 00:29:09.799
Now there are some people that did lose some things, yes,

430
00:29:11.559 --> 00:29:14.759
but they didn't lose their life. And again something to

431
00:29:14.839 --> 00:29:20.279
be grateful for. But here's the here's the nugget. We're

432
00:29:20.319 --> 00:29:22.480
gonna trey, you're gonna give a nugget two, So we're

433
00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:27.039
gonna get Today's a nugget day. Well, we're gonna do

434
00:29:27.200 --> 00:29:33.640
what we have to do. Is we're gonna praise God

435
00:29:33.720 --> 00:29:37.640
in the storm, and we're gonna praise God when things

436
00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:43.920
are great, because you don't just give God fifty per

437
00:29:44.279 --> 00:29:47.400
give give it a hundred. If he's give blessing, you

438
00:29:48.839 --> 00:29:53.240
give him things. If things are tough, give them thanks.

439
00:29:53.839 --> 00:29:57.960
But you know what, the lead singer of Casting Crown

440
00:29:58.039 --> 00:30:00.720
said something when I went to his co and it's

441
00:30:00.799 --> 00:30:08.480
still still. Don't expect God to handle a situation the

442
00:30:08.559 --> 00:30:15.039
way you want it, amen, because God will allow you

443
00:30:15.200 --> 00:30:17.759
to do it, or God will allow you to go

444
00:30:17.920 --> 00:30:21.400
through it. And he's gonna say move over, son, move

445
00:30:21.440 --> 00:30:27.440
over daughter. We're gonna sit this one out together and

446
00:30:27.799 --> 00:30:29.960
together you get through the storm.

447
00:30:31.000 --> 00:30:31.359
Amen.

448
00:30:32.599 --> 00:30:40.680
That's impactful. That's impactful because it validates exactly what Jesus said.

449
00:30:41.440 --> 00:30:45.599
Everyone that God has appointed to our savior, Jesus.

450
00:30:46.759 --> 00:30:52.839
Jesus will never lose them. And that's in John six.

451
00:30:55.880 --> 00:31:00.680
I don't lose anyone my Father has given me, and

452
00:31:00.839 --> 00:31:05.640
if they come to me, I will not cast them out.

453
00:31:07.960 --> 00:31:12.759
To what Miss Gray was saying, clock is sticking, Clock

454
00:31:12.880 --> 00:31:18.680
is sticking? What are you gonna do about it? You've heard,

455
00:31:19.079 --> 00:31:23.599
you've heard our testimonies, you've heard us speak. My question

456
00:31:23.759 --> 00:31:26.480
to you now is now that you know, what are

457
00:31:26.519 --> 00:31:27.240
you gonna do about it?

458
00:31:30.480 --> 00:31:32.680
It seems like every show we're asking that what are

459
00:31:32.720 --> 00:31:34.480
you doing? How are you living?

460
00:31:35.720 --> 00:31:36.400
What are you doing?

461
00:31:37.279 --> 00:31:37.359
Now?

462
00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:40.640
I'm gonna bring it to modern day. As you all know,

463
00:31:40.799 --> 00:31:43.240
I used to be a cameo actor at our History

464
00:31:43.279 --> 00:31:46.319
Center here in Orlando, and I portrayed doctor Mary McLeod Bethune,

465
00:31:46.920 --> 00:31:49.920
and I did my research on her before I took

466
00:31:50.000 --> 00:31:52.359
the took the role, and as I was taking a role.

467
00:31:53.720 --> 00:31:59.920
She's the founder of Bethune Cookman College in Daytona Beach, Florida. Well,

468
00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:03.480
she said one day she was registering the students to

469
00:32:03.680 --> 00:32:08.359
vote on campus and all of a sudden, she looked

470
00:32:08.359 --> 00:32:13.440
around and the KKK was walking onto the property. What

471
00:32:13.640 --> 00:32:17.039
does she do? She said, Send for the court, the

472
00:32:17.160 --> 00:32:21.839
chorus and the musicians. It's time for us to praise God.

473
00:32:23.440 --> 00:32:25.759
They begin to sing in But the Little Cookman College,

474
00:32:25.759 --> 00:32:28.799
along with fam you out of Tallahassee, are known for

475
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:33.680
their gospel choir, their musical presentations, especially their gospel choir,

476
00:32:33.759 --> 00:32:37.359
and their marching bands. Of course, she said, after they

477
00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:39.480
got through singing a couple of songs, they looked around

478
00:32:39.519 --> 00:32:47.119
and KKK had left. No casualty, no fatality, nobody calling

479
00:32:47.200 --> 00:32:49.279
nobody name, nobody said, nothing on fire.

480
00:32:50.480 --> 00:32:50.920
She does.

481
00:32:51.000 --> 00:32:55.680
Sometimes, guys, here's another little nugget. Sometimes you have to

482
00:32:55.839 --> 00:32:58.880
praise your way out of things. Sometimes you've got to

483
00:32:59.039 --> 00:33:02.599
study your way out things. Sometimes you have to worship

484
00:33:02.759 --> 00:33:05.000
your way out of things. There are times you have

485
00:33:05.119 --> 00:33:07.440
to seed your way out of things. And I don't

486
00:33:07.480 --> 00:33:10.160
share with that. That's that's a powerful thing. When you've

487
00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:12.880
got to build. You've got a situation. I have nobody,

488
00:33:12.880 --> 00:33:15.880
I had nobody. I could turn to only God. God

489
00:33:16.119 --> 00:33:19.359
I gotta do, And God said, plant this seed and

490
00:33:19.480 --> 00:33:22.319
the favor. My life has never been the same since.

491
00:33:23.640 --> 00:33:27.200
And I never questioned him. So sometimes you have to

492
00:33:27.319 --> 00:33:30.720
seed your way out. You got to praise your way out.

493
00:33:31.559 --> 00:33:35.799
You have to fast and pray and watch your way out.

494
00:33:38.680 --> 00:33:43.759
It's all and their times is all running together. I'm studying,

495
00:33:43.799 --> 00:33:46.960
I'm meditating, I'm praying, I'm worshiping. I've got to go

496
00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:50.160
give my seed. Sometimes it's all happening at the same time.

497
00:33:50.240 --> 00:33:53.200
I love young compillity. This weekend, in the midst of

498
00:33:53.359 --> 00:33:57.559
all the chaos, there were some that were fasting and praying,

499
00:33:59.799 --> 00:34:01.599
and it was such a good feeling. Even though I

500
00:34:01.680 --> 00:34:06.759
say and the fast it ended sundown yesterday evening. As

501
00:34:06.839 --> 00:34:09.000
we were getting ready to begin to eat the dinner

502
00:34:09.480 --> 00:34:15.559
at the event, I was at it's so good. So

503
00:34:15.679 --> 00:34:17.440
you have to know what to do. We're not sitting

504
00:34:17.480 --> 00:34:20.360
here spanking. We're not knocking at you. We're not pointing

505
00:34:20.440 --> 00:34:23.000
at anybody, because when you're point at people, there's three

506
00:34:23.039 --> 00:34:27.400
fingers that's coming back at you. We're not doing that.

507
00:34:27.480 --> 00:34:29.039
We're just trying to tell you because I don't want

508
00:34:29.039 --> 00:34:31.360
you to look up. They say that somebody, well I

509
00:34:31.400 --> 00:34:34.320
don't know what city it was, that they weren't prepared

510
00:34:34.360 --> 00:34:39.079
for the tornadoes. Now I have to say the meteorologists

511
00:34:39.119 --> 00:34:42.159
that I listened to. They mentioned a tornado when they

512
00:34:42.199 --> 00:34:46.840
were first giving us the mappings of Milton, and they said,

513
00:34:46.880 --> 00:34:49.599
you see this right here, that's a few tornadoes. So

514
00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:54.199
there's some tornadoes in him. And that's about all. They

515
00:34:54.239 --> 00:34:56.480
didn't give too much. And then some of the state

516
00:34:56.599 --> 00:35:00.880
cities were just the tornado came through, just like roaring,

517
00:35:01.760 --> 00:35:05.760
more than a lion or heard of them. And then

518
00:35:05.880 --> 00:35:08.119
like nobody told us about tornadoes. I'm like, well, they

519
00:35:08.239 --> 00:35:14.639
mentioned it once. They mentioned at one time, you still

520
00:35:14.719 --> 00:35:19.119
got to prepare. And God, outside of all the storms,

521
00:35:19.159 --> 00:35:22.199
outside of all the seasons, the coldest, the snow that's coming,

522
00:35:22.719 --> 00:35:26.400
the vegetated state, and the polar bears running out of ice,

523
00:35:26.599 --> 00:35:29.119
despite all of that, God said, are you prepared for me?

524
00:35:31.599 --> 00:35:36.719
Because no man knows the day or the hour. No

525
00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:39.480
man knows it. Even those of us want to give

526
00:35:39.559 --> 00:35:44.320
the prophecy. We don't know it. But we can tell you.

527
00:35:44.400 --> 00:35:49.320
You got to get ready. You gotta get ready. And

528
00:35:49.400 --> 00:35:51.920
the readiness is in your heart. It starts in your heart.

529
00:35:52.639 --> 00:35:57.360
Choose whom the this day you will serve and give

530
00:35:57.440 --> 00:36:00.159
him all of it. And I know our listeners talk

531
00:36:00.199 --> 00:36:03.360
to our listeners. Our listeners are faithful five. We know

532
00:36:03.840 --> 00:36:07.159
you're on it. You're doing your best. We know it.

533
00:36:07.400 --> 00:36:09.320
We could tell, we could see the growth. I know

534
00:36:09.440 --> 00:36:12.800
God sees the growth, and he's blessing y'all over and

535
00:36:12.880 --> 00:36:16.400
over and over again. But there's still if we all

536
00:36:16.519 --> 00:36:18.960
sat back and if we had time on the show

537
00:36:19.320 --> 00:36:24.519
to really go through everybody, there's still some pieces that

538
00:36:24.679 --> 00:36:27.079
need to be cleaned up, cleared up, or gotten rid of.

539
00:36:28.519 --> 00:36:31.239
Just like when you're getting ready to donate stuff, you

540
00:36:31.360 --> 00:36:33.840
keep looking at the dress. It's got the price tag

541
00:36:33.920 --> 00:36:35.679
still on it. You ain't been able to get in

542
00:36:35.719 --> 00:36:38.400
it yet, but you got to hang it in the closet.

543
00:36:40.000 --> 00:36:43.320
You already know it's been three years, three years ago.

544
00:36:43.400 --> 00:36:47.719
It costs that you've had that for three years. Time

545
00:36:47.760 --> 00:36:51.639
to let it go and give it away. And it's

546
00:36:51.719 --> 00:36:54.800
going to be all right, because the moment you do that,

547
00:36:54.920 --> 00:36:59.480
he's got loads of blessings just waiting to bestow you.

548
00:37:00.320 --> 00:37:08.000
Trust me, we've lived this day. We've lived it, so

549
00:37:08.159 --> 00:37:11.679
we thank you, We give God, praise tray.

550
00:37:11.760 --> 00:37:15.320
Come on in now, I don't not have come in

551
00:37:15.440 --> 00:37:17.719
after all that, man, I tell you, y'all are preacher

552
00:37:17.760 --> 00:37:19.840
the night as usual.

553
00:37:22.760 --> 00:37:24.320
Look, Look, God is good.

554
00:37:24.360 --> 00:37:27.079
I was thinking about what you're talking about the aging

555
00:37:27.320 --> 00:37:31.119
and you know, I'm just just blessed, you know, I'm

556
00:37:31.159 --> 00:37:35.280
feeling blessed, and I know I'm blessed, and I just

557
00:37:35.599 --> 00:37:39.599
exploring some different things because by the time our next show,

558
00:37:39.760 --> 00:37:42.320
I would have turned another year around the sun.

559
00:37:42.480 --> 00:37:45.800
So had a birthday coming up. Yeah, so hey, happy

560
00:37:46.079 --> 00:37:47.960
birthday birthday to you.

561
00:37:49.760 --> 00:37:52.840
Yeah, so excited and just thinking about some things that

562
00:37:53.519 --> 00:37:56.639
I can do differently. You know, I've definitely made some changes,

563
00:37:56.760 --> 00:38:00.000
but you know, exploring some different you know, different entry

564
00:38:00.239 --> 00:38:05.480
you know, certifications and uh, you know what certains. And

565
00:38:06.599 --> 00:38:08.599
I was trying to think of what I was listening to.

566
00:38:11.760 --> 00:38:13.880
I think it was a different trainings and then we're

567
00:38:13.920 --> 00:38:18.239
talking about, you know, using your expertise or exploring different things,

568
00:38:18.400 --> 00:38:19.920
you know, creating different things.

569
00:38:20.000 --> 00:38:22.079
And so I do have a couple of.

570
00:38:22.079 --> 00:38:24.960
Irons in the fire that I'm working on now are branding,

571
00:38:25.639 --> 00:38:26.039
but just.

572
00:38:26.159 --> 00:38:29.159
Exploring some certifications or some other skills that I can

573
00:38:29.280 --> 00:38:32.840
just take to the next level. Because you know, I'm

574
00:38:32.880 --> 00:38:33.599
a people person.

575
00:38:33.719 --> 00:38:35.159
I love being around people.

576
00:38:35.239 --> 00:38:38.760
I love helping people or guiding people the way I

577
00:38:38.920 --> 00:38:41.480
know how to guide them, you know, encouraging and motivating

578
00:38:41.599 --> 00:38:45.639
those that sometimes don't feel as motivated, but I know

579
00:38:45.719 --> 00:38:48.159
I have to motivate myself and other places too, so.

580
00:38:49.199 --> 00:38:52.360
You know, always seeking to to to learn more.

581
00:38:52.760 --> 00:38:54.880
And so that's where I'm going to move into my

582
00:38:55.039 --> 00:38:59.440
next my next season, learning more, being anxious for nothing,

583
00:38:59.719 --> 00:39:05.000
you know, being prayer for being steadfast, trust in God more. Uh,

584
00:39:05.280 --> 00:39:10.559
and just see where this goes. But I'm excited, excited,

585
00:39:10.760 --> 00:39:13.000
and just you know, I got a little little nervousness.

586
00:39:13.079 --> 00:39:16.480
But I'm okay, you're about to live, Trey. You're about

587
00:39:16.519 --> 00:39:19.440

00:39:23.360 --> 00:39:26.679

00:39:50.239 --> 00:39:54.159
I really feel thank you. Yeah, I feel blessed. I

596
00:39:54.360 --> 00:39:54.719
really do.

597
00:39:55.039 --> 00:39:57.960
And so and and I want, you know, just people

598
00:39:58.039 --> 00:40:02.960
to stay encouraged and stay motivated and surround your people

599
00:40:03.159 --> 00:40:06.400
that surround yourself with people that encourage and motivate you.

600
00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:13.719
And want to guide you and especially spiritually, emotionally, physically, financially.

601
00:40:14.039 --> 00:40:16.440
Just you're never too old to learn.

602
00:40:16.960 --> 00:40:18.800
And so I was looking at some things.

603
00:40:19.039 --> 00:40:23.239
But looking at Facebook, and I was, you know, looking

604
00:40:23.280 --> 00:40:26.679
at the different things. I think Google bought, Google bought something.

605
00:40:26.719 --> 00:40:28.320
It was years ago, but they were talking about how

606
00:40:28.400 --> 00:40:32.199
Colonel Sanders was sixty five when he did the recipe

607
00:40:32.679 --> 00:40:36.039
KFC and so I'm thinking, but other people are doing things,

608
00:40:36.079 --> 00:40:39.079
and looking at that, I said, Wow, I know I

609
00:40:39.159 --> 00:40:40.920
can do it. And I just want people to be

610
00:40:41.199 --> 00:40:44.199
encouraged and stay encouraged. And if nothing else, that's what

611
00:40:44.320 --> 00:40:47.239
I want to put out there, to be a blessing.

612
00:40:46.960 --> 00:40:50.559
To some Yeah, and we're doing it. We got Thanksgiving

613
00:40:50.639 --> 00:40:52.760
coming up. I'm sure God's gonna tell us to reach

614
00:40:52.800 --> 00:40:56.039
out to somebody. We'll shoot it to everybody. We go

615
00:40:56.239 --> 00:40:58.400
do it whatever it is. Christmas is coming up, and

616
00:40:58.480 --> 00:41:00.880
it's about everybody else. Ain't about people, you know, it's

617
00:41:00.920 --> 00:41:03.639
not about the family anymore, not about the kids anymore.

618
00:41:03.840 --> 00:41:05.760
I know, Pastor, that is about the grande kids.

619
00:41:05.800 --> 00:41:05.880
Now.

620
00:41:05.880 --> 00:41:08.840
I know that granddaughter of yours, you know, she running things.

621
00:41:08.880 --> 00:41:09.519
So we got that.

622
00:41:09.679 --> 00:41:10.079
We got that.

623
00:41:10.199 --> 00:41:13.119
That's fine, But you know, everything else. We got to

624
00:41:13.119 --> 00:41:14.960
get ready. We just got to get ready. But we

625
00:41:15.159 --> 00:41:19.079
want you at your best. We want you at your best.

626
00:41:19.199 --> 00:41:21.000
I told you about my teeth last week, and I

627
00:41:21.119 --> 00:41:24.079
was as I was brushing this morning, I say, allow, Lord,

628
00:41:24.239 --> 00:41:28.000
the teeth, I speak to you in the name of Jesus,

629
00:41:28.280 --> 00:41:33.280
and that you be restored to your optimum. I can

630
00:41:33.400 --> 00:41:35.920
never ask, I don't ever ask, but my teeth to

631
00:41:35.960 --> 00:41:40.360
become white. That's they've never been white since since I

632
00:41:40.440 --> 00:41:43.199
was what three or four years old, five years old,

633
00:41:43.239 --> 00:41:46.719
six years old? So I asked them to be restored.

634
00:41:47.039 --> 00:41:49.079
And every route listen to this. This is what God

635
00:41:49.159 --> 00:41:52.599
have you prayer this morning. Every every tooth that has

636
00:41:52.960 --> 00:41:55.719
that is that has elements in it to preserve it.

637
00:41:56.239 --> 00:41:59.280
I speak to you not to spill over and not

638
00:41:59.400 --> 00:42:02.559
to decrease your vitality. It was there for a reason.

639
00:42:02.679 --> 00:42:05.440
And all the chipped teeth, Father God, let them just

640
00:42:05.559 --> 00:42:07.880
stay there. Jesus, let them stay there holding up the

641
00:42:07.920 --> 00:42:10.480
gum and the whole gum line. I speak to you

642
00:42:10.800 --> 00:42:13.559
that you be restored. My tongue, I speak to you.

643
00:42:13.920 --> 00:42:16.920
I'm doing this well. I'm auction five teen. This is

644
00:42:17.000 --> 00:42:23.079
how you bind inoperable and you loose that's how you pray.

645
00:42:24.239 --> 00:42:27.840
I bind inoperable. All the preventative care that I've had

646
00:42:27.920 --> 00:42:29.840
over the years, it's still in.

647
00:42:29.960 --> 00:42:32.920
There, but it was spilling over and stuff like that

648
00:42:33.119 --> 00:42:33.760
trying to come out.

649
00:42:33.840 --> 00:42:36.639
No, you stay up in there unless I remove the tools.

650
00:42:38.119 --> 00:42:40.880
You stay up in there. You don't need to seep

651
00:42:40.960 --> 00:42:42.000
over nowhere.

652
00:42:42.480 --> 00:42:45.239
Tongue right now, in the name of Jesus, you speak truth,

653
00:42:46.039 --> 00:42:47.320
You speak encouragement.

654
00:42:49.320 --> 00:42:54.199
Stop downing. Stop being negative to yourself. Here we go

655
00:42:54.320 --> 00:42:59.119
back to aging. Well what are you saying to yourself?

656
00:43:00.199 --> 00:43:04.480
Are you giving up? A lady came over to talk

657
00:43:04.480 --> 00:43:07.320
to I was directing the crowd to the host, but

658
00:43:07.519 --> 00:43:09.440
they came over to the table. My daughter like what

659
00:43:09.519 --> 00:43:13.280
they come four? And this lady kep. She started talking.

660
00:43:13.360 --> 00:43:15.039
She's a well to do peron, you know. She looked

661
00:43:15.039 --> 00:43:17.280
really good, smell really good. And she said, yeah, I

662
00:43:17.760 --> 00:43:20.559
want to work with disabled kids. And I said, okay,

663
00:43:20.679 --> 00:43:23.480
so what do you have. You retired from your job?

664
00:43:23.599 --> 00:43:25.440
You retired? She goes, oh, I retired, but I don't

665
00:43:25.440 --> 00:43:27.039
know what to do. And I'm like, well, you're with

666
00:43:27.199 --> 00:43:30.079
the right person. You stick around with her because we're

667
00:43:30.079 --> 00:43:31.840
gonna be doing some things. I'm sure she's gonna be

668
00:43:31.920 --> 00:43:34.360
doing things. She's got over access to over two to

669
00:43:34.480 --> 00:43:39.559
four thousand disabled limb loss folk. She'll be doing something.

670
00:43:39.639 --> 00:43:41.880
She said, Well, you know, I'm her neighbor, and I'm like, okay,

671
00:43:44.280 --> 00:43:47.440
well then you should be telling me this stuff. Stick

672
00:43:47.519 --> 00:43:51.559
with her. You're gonna be all right. You gotta be

673
00:43:51.599 --> 00:43:56.000
all right. You're gonna be all right, guys on the

674
00:43:56.079 --> 00:44:05.719
stage of Misty Charles Country Sea Rebel Trade Pastor. And

675
00:44:05.800 --> 00:44:08.400
then there are times you have to speak to yourself

676
00:44:09.519 --> 00:44:12.000
and you have to tell say self self, say, huh,

677
00:44:13.079 --> 00:44:15.880
you calling me? What what? What we're doing? What we're doing.

678
00:44:16.920 --> 00:44:21.360
We're gonna get it right. We're gonna we're gonna stand still.

679
00:44:21.840 --> 00:44:25.039
And when you said I'm gonna stand be steadfast. And

680
00:44:25.159 --> 00:44:30.599
there's another piece to that, and unmovable, always abounding is

681
00:44:30.719 --> 00:44:34.880
the works of the Lord. Gotta know it all. It's

682
00:44:35.000 --> 00:44:38.280
it's it's a whole little thing there, it's pieces and

683
00:44:38.360 --> 00:44:44.639
it's all running simultaneously. So yes, aging at its best,

684
00:44:44.679 --> 00:44:47.360
aging is nothing but a number. I can tell you

685
00:44:47.519 --> 00:44:51.400
how old I am, but I am not. You have

686
00:44:51.559 --> 00:44:56.159
all the historical references I've made. You should have my idea. Okay,

687
00:44:56.719 --> 00:45:00.599
if not, say what happened in uh merormycle Okay, google

688
00:45:01.039 --> 00:45:04.199
you know, but anyway, you don't need to know because

689
00:45:04.199 --> 00:45:07.440
people will freak out like, oh my god, you're older

690
00:45:07.480 --> 00:45:11.480
than me. And I'm like, okay, calm down. People change

691
00:45:11.519 --> 00:45:15.360
on you. But it's my mindset. I've been asking for

692
00:45:15.519 --> 00:45:18.199
my youth to be renewed since I was nine years old,

693
00:45:18.280 --> 00:45:24.039
because I always looked older than what I was. And

694
00:45:24.159 --> 00:45:28.760
then it happened to as a first Saint John, Reverendiza

695
00:45:28.920 --> 00:45:33.440
or either Um Greater Bethel Primitive Baptist with Reverend Henley,

696
00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:36.239
one of them preached about the renewing of the youth

697
00:45:36.360 --> 00:45:40.519
like the egos. So I'll take that one. Please as

698
00:45:40.559 --> 00:45:44.599
I grow older, please please don't let me look my age.

699
00:45:45.960 --> 00:45:47.239
I didn't know when he was going to do that.

700
00:45:47.920 --> 00:45:53.440
And now's a great tie. It's a perfect time and

701
00:45:53.559 --> 00:45:56.000
the world. You know, the Lord, the Lord loves, he

702
00:45:56.199 --> 00:45:59.039
loves to do for us. He loves to hear us ask.

703
00:45:59.679 --> 00:46:01.960
He will us us to ask. As a parent, there

704
00:46:02.000 --> 00:46:03.679
are times I don't want you asking me. Why y'all

705
00:46:03.719 --> 00:46:07.320
asking me ask? Go to God? Well, don't go ask you. Well,

706
00:46:07.320 --> 00:46:09.639
my husband was like, go ask your daddy. Why you

707
00:46:09.679 --> 00:46:16.119
gotta ask me, okay, nothing from the peanut gallery over there. Now,

708
00:46:16.199 --> 00:46:19.760
y'all go to God before you come to me. Now, no,

709
00:46:19.880 --> 00:46:22.360
you go to God and he'll tell me what I

710
00:46:22.480 --> 00:46:25.119
need to say, because I'm going by his his his,

711
00:46:25.400 --> 00:46:28.199
his command, his direct I hope this helped someone tonight.

712
00:46:29.880 --> 00:46:32.199
I hope this helped someone tonight to just get the

713
00:46:32.280 --> 00:46:36.960
cob webs out, change up the room. Do you know

714
00:46:37.039 --> 00:46:39.239
how many people I've told in the last two weeks

715
00:46:39.639 --> 00:46:42.119
before the storm hit to go get some colorful pillows

716
00:46:42.239 --> 00:46:45.719
and put it on the couch because it sounds it

717
00:46:45.800 --> 00:46:49.000
sounds too dark in there, there's no light. Go get

718
00:46:49.039 --> 00:46:54.400
a yellow pillow. Yellow. And two people showed me they

719
00:46:54.440 --> 00:46:57.639
were in the store and the miss Gray is this this?

720
00:47:00.000 --> 00:47:02.519
I said, it's too dark in there. Brighten it up,

721
00:47:02.960 --> 00:47:07.159
let the sunshine in. And it's always I want to

722
00:47:08.920 --> 00:47:09.639
thank you, coach.

723
00:47:09.679 --> 00:47:10.199
You see.

724
00:47:11.639 --> 00:47:14.320
That's God. I can't even do it. I can't do it.

725
00:47:14.519 --> 00:47:17.760
Go ahead, Trey, don't know just when you when you

726
00:47:17.840 --> 00:47:20.760
were saying that. I know when my my dad passed,

727
00:47:21.800 --> 00:47:24.719
I redid the color of my room and yellow.

728
00:47:25.400 --> 00:47:31.400
Okay, wow, wow, it was a color scheme.

729
00:47:32.639 --> 00:47:34.800
And so I think it was some yellow and some gray,

730
00:47:35.480 --> 00:47:37.480
but just to brighten and brighten it up.

731
00:47:37.679 --> 00:47:38.599
Yeah, yellow and.

732
00:47:38.639 --> 00:47:42.079
Gray go really well together. That's a that's a popping

733
00:47:42.400 --> 00:47:44.519
I'm so thankful for y'all. Mistery. We thankful for you

734
00:47:45.199 --> 00:47:48.719
and all of y'all out there. Amen. You you keep

735
00:47:48.800 --> 00:47:51.840
us going, You keep us going, and you keep us

736
00:47:51.880 --> 00:47:55.119
on our knees too, because we have to pray for you.

737
00:47:55.480 --> 00:47:56.199
You're part of us.

738
00:47:56.880 --> 00:47:59.119
We got to call them the five five because we're

739
00:47:59.119 --> 00:48:00.599
always uh, always there.

740
00:48:02.679 --> 00:48:05.360
And that's all we need is five. And with us

741
00:48:05.480 --> 00:48:08.599
it's eight and nine. With our engineer, that's all we need.

742
00:48:09.519 --> 00:48:11.679
God could do wonder with two loaves of fish. I

743
00:48:11.760 --> 00:48:15.000
mean two loaves of bread and five fish. He told

744
00:48:15.079 --> 00:48:18.920
his numbers. Okay, okay, there you go. See I was testing.

745
00:48:19.039 --> 00:48:24.360
It was a test. It was a test. We need

746
00:48:24.400 --> 00:48:29.400
a way we're praying. By the way, there were there

747
00:48:29.440 --> 00:48:30.159
were sardines.

748
00:48:31.360 --> 00:48:32.159
There were sardines.

749
00:48:33.920 --> 00:48:37.480
Oh wow, only God wow.

750
00:48:37.719 --> 00:48:40.440
And it's so and it's so interesting because I'm going

751
00:48:40.519 --> 00:48:43.880
to be doing a sermon on November third at a

752
00:48:44.000 --> 00:48:48.199
church and I'm going to touch on that. And when

753
00:48:49.239 --> 00:48:53.000
the five thousand people got fed, no one asked where

754
00:48:53.000 --> 00:48:54.119
did all this food come from?

755
00:48:54.719 --> 00:48:58.880
Mhm. No one asked that, and he turned around and

756
00:48:58.960 --> 00:49:05.079
did four thousand and next chapter he faid four thousand

757
00:49:05.159 --> 00:49:09.440
and it was accounting women and children. Excuse me, all right, guys,

758
00:49:09.800 --> 00:49:13.320
that's it for us. We're gonna wind it down. We're

759
00:49:13.360 --> 00:49:16.159
praying for you. Make some decisions now. It's gonna be

760
00:49:16.199 --> 00:49:18.960
some tough ones, but it's about you and where you

761
00:49:19.079 --> 00:49:21.440
need to be. Where is it that you would like

762
00:49:21.599 --> 00:49:24.039
to be, How is it that you want to look?

763
00:49:24.679 --> 00:49:27.000
Are you through? Are you finished with the pains and

764
00:49:27.079 --> 00:49:31.159
the ailments and the worry and the anxiety. Turn it

765
00:49:31.239 --> 00:49:33.920
over to Jesus. I promise you He'll bring you out

766
00:49:34.559 --> 00:49:40.119
and you'll come out dancing and praising, and you you

767
00:49:40.119 --> 00:49:43.280
will walk differently and you will talk differently. We'll see

768
00:49:43.320 --> 00:49:47.679
