In the last three days, that four days, three days

65
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:57.879
that I couldn't even have prayed for. I would not

66
00:03:57.879 --> 00:04:02.840
have been able to formulate a prayer to request, and

67
00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:04.919

68
00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:09.159
And I'm like, God, You're just so awesome. You're so awesome.

69
00:04:11.879 --> 00:04:13.240
One little thing I want to share, and then we're

70
00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:14.840
going to get to the topic of you know, hey,

71
00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:16.759
it's been a week and people are back to school.

72
00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:19.439
I didn't get a chance to invite folks on my

73
00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:21.319
Facebook that I know are for teachers.

74
00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:25.079
I'm here and in my hometown, but I hope they're

75
00:04:25.319 --> 00:04:27.439
I don't know. I mean, I did not gonna watch

76
00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:32.879
the show. But anyway, somebody I'll answer. But God is

77
00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:33.240
so good.

78
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:37.319
The devil, uh, the devil chose my family this week

79
00:04:37.439 --> 00:04:41.800
last week to attack, to attack. I'm trying to get

80
00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:44.639
out of town and you know, to attack. And when

81
00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:45.480
I got back, I.

82
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:47.680
Said, you know what, you know, you know what I

83
00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:49.000
do my spiritual warfare.

84
00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:53.120
One of the biggest teaching trainings I taught you when

85
00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:56.199
the devil is messing with you, do something that you

86
00:04:56.240 --> 00:04:57.399
know he don't think.

87
00:04:57.240 --> 00:05:00.879
You're going to do. And what's what's for me? Go

88
00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:04.600
to the street. So I said. There was a shredding

89
00:05:04.759 --> 00:05:05.879
event on.

90
00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:11.399
Saturday, and so I said, well, I'm going to witness

91
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:15.920
and minister to fifteen people just because you've messed with me.

92
00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:18.240
Now you know, street ministry is not my ministry.

93
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:21.480
I ain't talking to people on the street, especially people

94
00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:25.439
who carry guns, you know, the sheriff department. And I'm like,

95
00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:28.360
you know what, I didn't care. So we got there.

96
00:05:28.279 --> 00:05:31.279
That my oldest son, Jove wrote with me.

97
00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:34.399
And as we're pulling into the high school and they

98
00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:36.120
have shredding every three months.

99
00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:40.040
The sheriff department sponsors that. So as we're pulling in,

100
00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:44.040
there's a beautiful young lady. She's waving. She goes, welcome, welcome, welcome.

101
00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:46.160
I said, welcome to you. And she appeared to be

102
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:52.720
her culture ethnicity appeared to be that of India. But

103
00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:55.360
she was so nice and everything as well. But you know,

104
00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:57.600
so she directed us all around. So we came around

105
00:05:58.040 --> 00:06:01.240
and I said okay, And as a rounding the corner,

106
00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:03.000
the lord said to me, feed my sheep.

107
00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:04.519
I said done.

108
00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:07.639
So one of the deputies was walking towards me as

109
00:06:07.639 --> 00:06:10.480
we were going around. As we neared the area, and

110
00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:14.680
I rolled the window down and I said, how many.

111
00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:16.560
Of you all? How many of how many of you

112
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:17.480
all are here today?

113
00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:20.040
And she said, well, roughly about fifteen people because we

114
00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:23.600
have junior cadetsa junior volunteers here as well. Said okay,

115
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:26.439
well God told me to feed the sheep. Now do

116
00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:28.879
y'all when y'all leave at twelve, will y'all go and

117
00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:33.199
have lunch together? Or will you eat separately? She goes, no,

118
00:06:33.279 --> 00:06:36.720
We're gonna eat separately, So I'm reaching for my purse,

119
00:06:37.000 --> 00:06:40.680
my wallet, and she said, let me explain something. She said,

120
00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:46.319
we cannot accept money, and we cannot accept donations, but

121
00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:48.879
you can if you want to make a donation, you

122
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:52.160
could go to one of our offices, and she described

123
00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:54.079
where it was. I said, okay, I know that area.

124
00:06:54.120 --> 00:06:57.120
I said, oh okay, I said. She said, now you

125
00:06:57.160 --> 00:06:59.600
can feed us, we can accept food.

126
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:01.279
She said, there's a lady.

127
00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:05.800
That comes between our you know, our sessions, our events,

128
00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:08.360
and this morning, she knows that we were gonna be,

129
00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:12.000
you know, here at eight o'clock this morning, so she drove,

130
00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:14.800
you know, she came by by nine and brought us donuts.

131
00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:17.279
So she was pointing to the donuts, like four or

132
00:07:17.439 --> 00:07:20.040
five stacks of intimate donuts.

133
00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:21.079
I said, oh okay.

134
00:07:21.480 --> 00:07:23.480
So I'm driving on the round and I and so

135
00:07:23.600 --> 00:07:26.040
as we're going by my lady who first greeted us,

136
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:27.360
I said, I'll be back.

137
00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:30.160
She said, you will. I said, mm hm. So I

138
00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:33.639
go to the first Publix that was the nearest, and

139
00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:35.519
of course it's under renovation.

140
00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:40.240
Nobody made no announcement on the TV or nothing gated

141
00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:40.959
all around.

142
00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:42.800
You can't see what's going on in then, and I

143
00:07:42.839 --> 00:07:44.800
was like, devil, are you.

144
00:07:44.839 --> 00:07:49.759
Serious, You're gonna try me? Okay, Okay, I got something

145
00:07:49.800 --> 00:07:51.839
for you. So that made me more determined. So I

146
00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:54.720
went to the next closest and then I walked in.

147
00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:56.959
I was hoping they would have those little pinwheel sandwiches

148
00:07:56.959 --> 00:07:59.920
of publics, you know, the cold cut sandwiches on the

149
00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:01.639
look like the role type of bread.

150
00:08:02.279 --> 00:08:04.319
And I'm looking none totally, just the.

151
00:08:04.279 --> 00:08:09.040
Whole Ben wiped out us, like she wow. I said, God,

152
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:11.759
what am I supposed to do? And I looked over

153
00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:17.519
and there were the lunchables. There were the lunchables. I said, yes,

154
00:08:17.959 --> 00:08:19.800
I said, this will be cute. It'll be a quick

155
00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:23.079
little snack. We got a gallon of tea, sweet tea,

156
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:25.480
we got a gallon of lemonade, we got.

157
00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:30.000
Little plastic cups for them, and we got napkins. Got

158
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:30.360
out of there.

159
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:35.200
Now, this is eleven thirty six, okay, And they shut

160
00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:39.519
down at twelve and I didn't speed nothing. I just said, God,

161
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:42.240
this is on you. So we got there at eleven

162
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:45.720
forty four. So so I'm going through my.

163
00:08:45.720 --> 00:08:47.639
First person I meet. I said, hey, I just wanted

164
00:08:47.639 --> 00:08:50.279
to I got lunch for you. She's like, no, you didn't.

165
00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:53.080
I say, yes, he did. It is not my idea.

166
00:08:53.399 --> 00:08:55.919
It was him. He said, to feed y'all. I'm feeding y'all.

167
00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:59.159
Remember now, I said, I'm gonna minister to fifteen people.

168
00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:02.759
Remember that number? Okay?

169
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:07.120
So, or when I went there the first time, I

170
00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:10.279
was asking the when the sergeant was telling me, the

171
00:09:10.279 --> 00:09:11.080
supervisor was.

172
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:14.600
Telling me that if I donated to the at that.

173
00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:19.159
Location at the headquarters or the one of their satellite offices,

174
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:23.960
I said, well, how many would that fund take care of?

175
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:27.480
You know, what's the total number it will reach? And

176
00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:29.519
she said, well, we've gotten roughly around.

177
00:09:29.519 --> 00:09:31.320
Well first, she said eight thousand.

178
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:35.960
People between deputies and volunteers, and that's for just miscellaneous

179
00:09:36.960 --> 00:09:39.840
bereavement things and stuff like that, because we can't use

180
00:09:40.200 --> 00:09:42.240
you know, government money to do that.

181
00:09:42.519 --> 00:09:46.080
So people who donate money, like you, that's what we use.

182
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:47.639
That ended up using that for I.

183
00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:51.200
Said, oh, okay, so we're going on and so I said, okay,

184
00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:53.120
so I drove. I said, well, anyway, I got lunch.

185
00:09:53.519 --> 00:09:55.759
She said, you did not do that. I said, no,

186
00:09:55.840 --> 00:09:59.919
I didn't need it. I said, but it's lunchables. It's lunchable.

187
00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:02.240
She said, well, we got oh, but you know, we

188
00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:04.120
got about you know a lot of cadets, you know,

189
00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:05.960
Julia volunteers here their kids.

190
00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:07.960
I said, oh, they're gonna love it. But God loves

191
00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:10.080
has a sense of humor as well. I said, we

192
00:10:10.159 --> 00:10:10.600
got you some.

193
00:10:10.559 --> 00:10:13.080
Sweet tea, we got you some lemon or lemonade, and

194
00:10:13.080 --> 00:10:14.840
we got you some cups and said. She said, I

195
00:10:14.840 --> 00:10:17.600
don't You're unbelievable. I said, no, that's God. Don't we

196
00:10:17.679 --> 00:10:20.240
give me nothing. I ain't had nothing to do with this.

197
00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:22.159
I just wanted to drop off my stuff to be

198
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:26.279
shredded and go. But the devil, I said, so I

199
00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:28.840
need prayer. And she looked at She said what would

200
00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:29.480
you need prayer?

201
00:10:29.559 --> 00:10:30.440
What do you need prayer for?

202
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:33.000
And I told her about the incident, just a brief

203
00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:35.559
version of it. She said, oh, that's that's not no.

204
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:37.159
We're not gonna have that.

205
00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:37.840
That's not good.

206
00:10:38.080 --> 00:10:40.639
I said no, I said, just She said, we got you,

207
00:10:40.759 --> 00:10:42.960
we're praying for you. She goes, hey, guys, she brought

208
00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:47.440
us lunch. And they're like, okay, who's this lady. So

209
00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:51.919
long as I'm driving out, I stopped with my friend,

210
00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:55.440
my new friend, and I said, well, praise God. She said, yes,

211
00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:59.919
thank you Jesus and I went, and then she will

212
00:11:00.279 --> 00:11:04.000
to tell me that she just gave her life. She

213
00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:09.320
was a former Hindu practicing individual. She has given her

214
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:10.679
life to Jesus Christ.

215
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:15.279
I said, shut the front door. She said yes, and

216
00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:16.559
I glorify him.

217
00:11:16.600 --> 00:11:18.279
I said, you ow, you're about to preach. I'm about

218
00:11:18.320 --> 00:11:20.360
to throw my car apart, and we're gonna have.

219
00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:23.080
Church out here. And she was just so kind.

220
00:11:23.159 --> 00:11:26.720
She said, I've heard about people donating, I heard about

221
00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:31.080
people giving people things, but I've never experienced it, and

222
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:33.000
now today I have, she said.

223
00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:36.679
I said, I just asked one thing. If my face

224
00:11:36.919 --> 00:11:40.440
appeared before you talk to him for me.

225
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:43.039
She said, you got it. You don't even have to ask.

226
00:11:44.320 --> 00:11:46.639
I said, praise God. She said, I pray for everybody came,

227
00:11:46.759 --> 00:11:47.360
every car.

228
00:11:47.360 --> 00:11:50.440
Including yours. When you left, I was praying for everybody.

229
00:11:50.679 --> 00:11:53.039
You've come back. I prayed for you again, and you're

230
00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:56.720
about to leave me. I'm gonna pray again. Now fast

231
00:11:56.759 --> 00:12:00.360
forward to today. Today, I said, okay, I don't do

232
00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:02.679
nothing else. I am going to go get my donation

233
00:12:03.639 --> 00:12:06.600
to the sheriff department. So I called first to see

234
00:12:06.600 --> 00:12:10.240
if they accept cash or a cashier's check, and the

235
00:12:10.279 --> 00:12:13.320
girl didn't know who to get me to, and.

236
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:15.960
Then she finally got me to the comptroller. I said, oh,

237
00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:18.559
this person would know you handle the money. She says,

238
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:20.720
I handle the money. She said, Can I ask you

239
00:12:21.159 --> 00:12:23.879
why are you doing this? What's the reason?

240
00:12:23.919 --> 00:12:25.639
I said, Well, let me if you got some time,

241
00:12:25.679 --> 00:12:27.399
I'd be more than happy to tell you. And I

242
00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:29.679
was driving to the sheriff department while I'm talking to it,

243
00:12:30.240 --> 00:12:32.240
so I said. I told her about the devil and

244
00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:35.919
everything else, and my quote was to reach fifteen people Saturday.

245
00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:39.679
I reached seventeen people. Minister to seventeen and she said,

246
00:12:39.679 --> 00:12:42.519
oh wow. And I said, and your colleague said that

247
00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:46.039
if your general fund is about for eight thousand people,

248
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:48.399
she goaes, well, no, it ain't eight thousand.

249
00:12:48.440 --> 00:12:50.840
It's over twenty six hundred. I could tell you, she said,

250
00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:51.919
but it's not about eight thousand.

251
00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:54.080
I said, Oh, I already met my number, so that's

252
00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:56.759
even more. I said, So it's just on my heart.

253
00:12:56.799 --> 00:12:58.639
I pray for you. All you guys are on my

254
00:12:59.200 --> 00:12:59.879
vision board.

255
00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:03.399
Pray for because it seemed like if well, I didn't

256
00:13:03.399 --> 00:13:04.879
tell her that then and said.

257
00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:05.480
So is it okay?

258
00:13:05.559 --> 00:13:07.679
Do you want cash or money order to go a

259
00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:10.799
cashier's check, but would you mind asking for the sheriff

260
00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:13.720
because I would like for him to know what people

261
00:13:13.799 --> 00:13:17.200
like you are doing. And I'm like, I'll saying to myself,

262
00:13:17.200 --> 00:13:19.720
I don't even want to be near the jail, you know.

263
00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:21.960
I'm just trying to make this just drop and go.

264
00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:26.840
You know. I said, this is not my street, and

265
00:13:27.200 --> 00:13:29.039
I said, well we'll see. She said, well, just come

266
00:13:29.080 --> 00:13:30.759
in and ask for me. And I'm like, oh god,

267
00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:34.559
I got to go inside to sheriff department. So I did,

268
00:13:34.639 --> 00:13:36.759
and there's this young kid who didn't know who she was,

269
00:13:36.799 --> 00:13:38.960
and I said, she's your controller. But I had my

270
00:13:39.039 --> 00:13:41.480
mask on, so ill I said she's your control.

271
00:13:41.639 --> 00:13:43.159
He didn't know what that meant. I was like, oh

272
00:13:43.240 --> 00:13:47.600
boy mm. So he got on the phone. I said.

273
00:13:47.600 --> 00:13:49.679
He said, well, ma'am, do you mind trying to call her?

274
00:13:49.799 --> 00:13:50.639
I said, no problem.

275
00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:52.480
So I'm walking away, like oh my god.

276
00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:52.879
Wow.

277
00:13:53.360 --> 00:13:55.519
So I went and sat down and I'm on the phone,

278
00:13:55.720 --> 00:13:58.120
and all of a sudden, this other, this fellow that's

279
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:02.600
dressed up in a uniform. He made some kind of

280
00:14:02.679 --> 00:14:05.559
noise and it made me look and I'm like wow.

281
00:14:06.240 --> 00:14:08.679
And next thing I know, they said, chaplin gray, and

282

me a badge.

289
00:14:26.639 --> 00:14:28.600
I said, why are you giving me a bag? I

300
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:52.480
I'm not here to stay. I'm just the trump off something.

301
00:14:53.039 --> 00:14:53.919
So finally the.

302
00:14:53.879 --> 00:14:59.679
Young lady came and just uh, you know, uh deputy

00:14:59.879 --> 00:15:01.879
was and she was just so kind, she's a native here.

304
00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:04.960
We just talking away and stuff and I shared, you know,

305
00:15:04.960 --> 00:15:08.120
and I was just telling her that you know, today

306
00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:10.279
you know. I mean the world is not going to

307
00:15:10.320 --> 00:15:14.240
return back to anything that looks like is normal for us.

308
00:15:14.879 --> 00:15:16.960
We have memories and that's all we're going to have.

309
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:20.919
And nobody knows what's on folks minds and things like that.

310
00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:22.000
So she was like, oh my god.

311
00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:23.200
And I didn't realize.

312
00:15:23.960 --> 00:15:27.320
And she said, yeah, something happened today and it's hitting

313
00:15:27.399 --> 00:15:30.919
us today and it's so and she went, it's just.

314
00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:35.799
So unusual you would stop by with the gift to

315
00:15:36.000 --> 00:15:37.799

what we do is important, but we got to look

318
00:15:45.000 --> 00:15:46.720
out for each other as well.

319
00:15:47.960 --> 00:15:50.200
And I said, you're gonna be okay.

320
00:15:50.279 --> 00:15:53.879
She said, this is a solemn day and the sheriff

321
00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:58.480
and his vice sheriff was in a meeting and whatever happened,

322
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:01.240
she said, it hadn't hit the news yet.

323
00:16:01.440 --> 00:16:02.720
And I'm like, oh my god.

324
00:16:02.799 --> 00:16:05.519
I said, well, I'm so sorry, but I just need

325
00:16:05.519 --> 00:16:07.960

for you, Like I said, you're on my prayer point list,

327
00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:13.440
my men and women in green, because for some reason,

328
00:16:13.440 --> 00:16:16.159
when I moved from the moment I moved here, we

329
00:16:16.159 --> 00:16:19.720
were already in the areas that were serviced by the

330
00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:24.440
Sheriff Department, not Orlando PD, and so I've always to.

331
00:16:24.440 --> 00:16:26.279
See it was green since i've been here.

332
00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:28.600
When I made that emergency call, when I was over

333
00:16:28.639 --> 00:16:32.039
the neighborhood watch, it was my share. My coordinator was

334
00:16:32.159 --> 00:16:36.279
a deputy, so you know, I said, it's just something

335
00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:38.720
about you guys. And when I see them out all

336
00:16:38.759 --> 00:16:41.039
eating lunch, I said, I'm praying for you, y'all be safe.

337
00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:45.799
They're like, thank you, ma'am, thank you. You know, so here,

338
00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:48.080
you know, God God knew.

339
00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:53.399
Was what was going to occur, that was gonna just

340
00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:58.080
put them in shock, make them this is the saddest

341
00:16:58.159 --> 00:17:02.600
day for them. So I perceived that it had to

342
00:17:02.639 --> 00:17:08.200
do probably with a staff member that possibly took their life.

343
00:17:09.880 --> 00:17:15.200
And later on Facebook it came up and it was

344
00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:17.640
the comments that I looked at because they didn't they

345
00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:21.599
just said, you know, deputy of two decades and just

346
00:17:21.759 --> 00:17:25.319
you know, no, it has transitioned on and blah blah blah.

347
00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:29.279
And I looked at the comments. So yeah, I looked

348
00:17:29.279 --> 00:17:33.599
at comments. They're begging for people to pray for them.

349
00:17:33.640 --> 00:17:37.240
They're pray they're begging for mental health services, they're begging

350
00:17:37.400 --> 00:17:42.759
for we just can't take each other for granted anymore. So, guys,

351
00:17:42.839 --> 00:17:45.319
I'm telling my co hosts. So I'm telling Rebel as well.

352
00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:48.440
If I come up in your if I come up

353
00:17:48.440 --> 00:17:54.680
into your spirit or your mindgate twice, text me just

354
00:17:54.720 --> 00:17:58.200

355
00:17:58.440 --> 00:18:02.119
you know, yeah, because does an attack and he's attacking

356
00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:04.480
me right now, and you know.

357
00:18:04.480 --> 00:18:05.680
And if I go down.

358
00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:08.799
All the folks that I pray for my spiritual sons

359
00:18:08.839 --> 00:18:13.359
and daughters to show our audience everybody, you know, y'all, y'all.

360
00:18:13.079 --> 00:18:15.759
Wide open, wide.

361
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:17.880
Open, And I'll talk about that one day about being

362
00:18:17.920 --> 00:18:20.920
a prayer warrior and a spiritual person.

363
00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:26.680
Okay, thank you, Thank you, pastor Amen do that. Thank you,

364
00:18:27.400 --> 00:18:28.920
and Trey, we're gonna next time.

365
00:18:28.960 --> 00:18:31.960
We'll have you your information too, if you don't mind,

366
00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:34.079
if they need to reach out to you, closer to

367
00:18:34.079 --> 00:18:34.640
you or whatever.

368
00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:37.759
We'll put everybody's information up here. Thank you. Rebel. Yes

369
00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:41.119
nine A eight for the national suit. Yeah yeah, because

370
00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:45.680
I don't know. I don't know, so so I just

371
00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:46.559
wanted to share that.

372
00:18:46.640 --> 00:18:48.640
I felt that the Lord, I guess the Lord wanted

373
00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:51.279
me to share that to let you know, people are.

374
00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:53.400
You know, people are always ready that they need to

375
00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:55.200
be given. You need to be you need to give.

376
00:18:55.640 --> 00:18:57.880
It's not going to be the traditional way of giving

377
00:18:58.319 --> 00:19:01.720
and raising money and you know, getting closed to donate

378
00:19:01.799 --> 00:19:04.079
and stuff like that. Oh and that's another thing.

379
00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:06.400
Deputy that definitely said to me.

380
00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:09.960
She said, we also use the money donation money for

381
00:19:10.039 --> 00:19:14.920
our K nine bereavement because when when the dogs you know,

382
00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:16.400
pass away or get shot or.

383
00:19:16.440 --> 00:19:20.559
Killed, they hold a whole service for them. So we

384
00:19:20.680 --> 00:19:20.920
use it.

385
00:19:20.920 --> 00:19:22.680
So I said, well, divide the money up to your

386
00:19:22.759 --> 00:19:26.160
volunteer appreciation when you do that, and for your K

387
00:19:26.279 --> 00:19:30.240
nine unit bereavement, you know, and anything else you need.

388
00:19:31.759 --> 00:19:33.319
So you know, I just thank God.

389
00:19:33.319 --> 00:19:37.440
But again, so that's twenty six plus two thousand plus

390
00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:40.319
seventeen people that an that I'll be ministry to and

391
00:19:40.400 --> 00:19:44.279
plus the folks behind the glass. And I'm really serious

392
00:19:44.319 --> 00:19:47.440
about that. When you know when you're going through, you

393
00:19:47.839 --> 00:19:49.960
know it's the devil hitting you. It doesn't matter the

394
00:19:50.000 --> 00:19:53.279
people the person he uses. But when you know, as

395
00:19:53.480 --> 00:19:54.960
from the Satan, it's an attack.

396
00:19:55.480 --> 00:19:57.880
It is an attack. It's not a test. It's not

397
00:19:57.960 --> 00:19:59.960
God giving. You're going through a test with God.

398
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:05.200
It's a downright attack, do what you don't what he.

399
00:20:05.279 --> 00:20:06.319
Knows you won't do.

400
00:20:07.160 --> 00:20:09.720
I was talking to one of my spiritual daughters yesterday

401
00:20:09.759 --> 00:20:12.440
and I said, you know, your specialty is the young.

402
00:20:12.359 --> 00:20:14.720
Adult, the youth. You get down with them, But when

403
00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:15.400
the devil.

404
00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:17.640
Come for you, go to the nursing home and just

405
00:20:17.640 --> 00:20:19.440
sit with a couple of people, pray with a couple

406
00:20:19.519 --> 00:20:19.920
of people.

407
00:20:20.240 --> 00:20:20.960
Because nursing, you.

408
00:20:20.960 --> 00:20:23.680
Know, the aging is not your that's not your specialty,

409
00:20:23.680 --> 00:20:26.880
that's not your target population. So you know you ain't

410
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:28.880
gonna go and deal with nobody in the nursing home.

411
00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:31.440
Go do it, and he'll get it off for you.

412
00:20:32.039 --> 00:20:32.920
He'll get it off for you.

413
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:36.480
So I want to mention we got a commercial here.

414
00:20:36.480 --> 00:20:39.839
We need to do back to school kick off on Saturday,

415
00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:41.400
September seventh.

416
00:20:42.599 --> 00:20:47.079
This year from twelve to four once again our daycare

417
00:20:47.240 --> 00:20:52.000
Royalty Harvest Academy. They're having a whole big blowout welcoming

418
00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:53.240
everybody stop by.

419
00:20:53.559 --> 00:20:55.240
There's gonna be free food and giveaways.

420
00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:58.279
They're gonna have a free bounce house, they meet your tea,

421
00:20:58.400 --> 00:21:02.759
the teachers to their facility. Just awesome opportunity. So we

422
00:21:02.799 --> 00:21:04.319
want to make sure everybody comes out.

423
00:21:04.359 --> 00:21:06.960
We were gonna have it the end of August, but

424
00:21:07.119 --> 00:21:11.119
that's leading into Labor Day weekend, and so she said.

425
00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:12.720
Don't let me change that, because I want to get

426
00:21:12.759 --> 00:21:16.359
everybody you know, to come on out there offering pre

427
00:21:17.160 --> 00:21:20.839
pre K students as well enrolling them. She's still accepting

428
00:21:20.920 --> 00:21:24.880
enrollments right now. And also BBK, hey, I mean I

429
00:21:24.920 --> 00:21:27.720
love it that my twins were able to be in

430
00:21:27.759 --> 00:21:30.799
an in home daycare. I you know, I was able

431
00:21:30.799 --> 00:21:33.319
to continue on that and they were. She made them

432
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:36.519
ready for kindergarten. So these people are real serious and

433
00:21:36.559 --> 00:21:37.519
your children.

434
00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:37.960
Will be taught.

435
00:21:37.960 --> 00:21:40.000
And I think it's a good thing, a good environment

436
00:21:40.279 --> 00:21:42.519
to keep them in, you know, especially as young as

437
00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:46.359
young as they are, keep them in that safe, familiar environment.

438
00:21:46.680 --> 00:21:48.720
You know, it's safe and everything else.

439
00:21:48.759 --> 00:21:50.559
And I think it's just it will add to their

440
00:21:50.640 --> 00:21:52.519
learning and their skills building.

441
00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:57.799
So yeah, that again, that is a royalty I'm sorry.

442
00:21:58.079 --> 00:22:03.759
Yeah, oh gosh, Harvest Academy. Sorry about that Royalty Harvest Academy.

443
00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:07.680
And it's here, it's over and went apart, and any

444
00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:10.240
if you want the contact number four O seven nine

445
00:22:10.279 --> 00:22:13.279
six zero one zero zero three and we will see

446
00:22:13.319 --> 00:22:17.640
you on September seventh, okay, all right. So it's been

447
00:22:17.680 --> 00:22:22.839
a week today down here in Florida, folks have been

448
00:22:22.880 --> 00:22:23.480
in school.

449
00:22:24.839 --> 00:22:25.960
I don't know why they're.

450
00:22:25.759 --> 00:22:29.440
So late and having back job fare for the bus

451
00:22:29.519 --> 00:22:33.559
drivers that that's really not I don't know what that's

452
00:22:33.559 --> 00:22:36.799
supposed to mean. You s had it earlier in the summer, so,

453
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:40.359
you know. But I saw bus drivers out driving around.

454
00:22:40.440 --> 00:22:43.880
Guess they're getting their routes down and everything. And one

455
00:22:44.000 --> 00:22:44.960
one bus driver.

456
00:22:44.880 --> 00:22:47.680
Was a little lost, and so we let her stay lost.

457
00:22:47.759 --> 00:22:49.200
I got it in loot of the lane because I

458
00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:51.119
didn't know she was gonna where.

459
00:22:51.000 --> 00:22:54.079
She was turning. I you know, so I just.

460
00:22:54.079 --> 00:22:57.680
Lord, please be with her, calm her down. She looked

461
00:22:57.720 --> 00:23:00.079
like she was a little anxious cot her fire in

462
00:23:00.119 --> 00:23:02.319
their way so she could pick up these beautiful people

463
00:23:03.200 --> 00:23:06.839
on time on Monday. And so again I was hoping

464
00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:08.880
that some teachers would jump on and just tell us

465
00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:09.519
how it's going.

466
00:23:09.599 --> 00:23:10.519
I know, it's quiet.

467
00:23:10.839 --> 00:23:14.519
They're doing some school things, some things differently here in.

468
00:23:15.839 --> 00:23:20.599
Orlando and the Old A lot of public schools are.

469
00:23:20.440 --> 00:23:23.720
Saying, just give us thirty five thirty six fifty dollars

470
00:23:24.079 --> 00:23:27.519
and we will take care of the supplies the school.

471
00:23:27.559 --> 00:23:28.880
You know, the classroom supplies.

472
00:23:28.920 --> 00:23:32.599
I was like, oh, okay, met some interesting people while

473
00:23:32.599 --> 00:23:36.279
out school shopping for one of my newest spiritual daughters.

474
00:23:36.440 --> 00:23:41.359
She's raising her sister, and also my spiritual daughter's granddaughter

475
00:23:41.799 --> 00:23:46.079
who's become my godchild. We were out with that and

476
00:23:46.160 --> 00:23:48.279
so that was kind of fun. Target took care of

477
00:23:48.359 --> 00:23:53.960
us very well during no sales taxes also hurricane no

478
00:23:54.079 --> 00:23:57.920
sales tax for hurricane things and starting this week, as

479
00:23:57.960 --> 00:24:03.319
a matter of fact, to September, I believe, so listen

480
00:24:03.400 --> 00:24:03.799
out for that.

481
00:24:03.880 --> 00:24:05.839
And I don't know, tray up where you're at.

482
00:24:05.960 --> 00:24:09.240
If you're hearing any thing about any no sales tax

483
00:24:09.319 --> 00:24:12.359
or hurricane supply, you know what.

484
00:24:12.640 --> 00:24:15.279
I am kind of out of the loop with that one,

485
00:24:16.519 --> 00:24:21.400
but I'm pretty sure that they are. Okay, I'm pretty

486
00:24:21.440 --> 00:24:23.319
sure that they are. I just haven't been venturing to

487
00:24:23.400 --> 00:24:24.680
stores and stuff like that.

488
00:24:24.839 --> 00:24:25.119
You know.

489
00:24:25.839 --> 00:24:29.200
Well, what you can do is for your your commissioner

490
00:24:29.240 --> 00:24:31.960
people and all that, make sure you just hop on

491
00:24:32.000 --> 00:24:35.039
their social media because they don't announce it, or the

492
00:24:35.039 --> 00:24:38.079
city council. You know, they don't announce it. But you

493
00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:40.720
all need to know about this stuff so you won't be.

494
00:24:40.720 --> 00:24:42.920
Saying, well, I don't have this and I don't have that.

495
00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:45.119
I mean, you could go brush up on your batteries.

496
00:24:45.119 --> 00:24:48.000
I get you know, your flashlights and stuff like that,

497
00:24:48.319 --> 00:24:49.440
and some grills.

498
00:24:49.920 --> 00:24:51.480
Go get you a nice little grill.

499
00:24:51.359 --> 00:24:56.359
For twenty five dollars and no sales tax, so you know, huh.

500
00:24:58.480 --> 00:25:01.440
Okay, definitely.

501
00:25:01.519 --> 00:25:07.960
So anyway, I'm hoping that everybody's doing okay, and kids

502
00:25:08.000 --> 00:25:10.960
are doing okay, and we got to pray for our

503
00:25:11.000 --> 00:25:14.519
students in these in high school and school's period, because

504
00:25:15.240 --> 00:25:17.640
I don't know what kind of emotional attention they've been

505
00:25:17.680 --> 00:25:22.640
able to receive before going back to school. Parents, if

506
00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:28.079
your child was studying struggling rather with school at the

507
00:25:28.160 --> 00:25:32.279
end of the year, get them a tutor. Get them

508
00:25:32.279 --> 00:25:36.960
a tutor, because if they left struggling, we don't want

509
00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:40.240
them to begin struggling. We don't want them to start

510
00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:43.400
the new year off and they're struggling again. So please

511
00:25:43.480 --> 00:25:45.720
get don't hesitate to get a tutor.

512
00:25:46.240 --> 00:25:49.599
Okay, anything else.

513
00:25:49.440 --> 00:25:51.839
You guys want to talk about as far as going

514
00:25:51.839 --> 00:25:54.359
back to school or whatever's on your heart. I'm trying

515
00:25:54.359 --> 00:25:58.240
to find the hurricane dates. So that's why I'm looking

516
00:25:58.279 --> 00:25:58.759
over here.

517
00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:02.039
You know, do you know about dates for the hurricane

518
00:26:02.079 --> 00:26:05.559
season or dates for the hurricane.

519
00:26:04.720 --> 00:26:09.359
Hurricane no sales tax. Well, hurricane season is not does

520
00:26:09.440 --> 00:26:12.519
not end November thirtieth, because I remember a couple of

521
00:26:12.599 --> 00:26:15.160
years back, we had a hurricane in February, okay, the

522
00:26:15.240 --> 00:26:18.960
following year. So I don't even look at that. I'm

523
00:26:19.039 --> 00:26:21.119
just looking at the sky and saying, what we're doing.

524
00:26:21.200 --> 00:26:23.440
We're supposed to have a super moon, a blue moon

525
00:26:23.599 --> 00:26:27.039
here this over the next two days, three days. But

526
00:26:27.240 --> 00:26:30.160
today and I thought they said something about you may

527
00:26:30.200 --> 00:26:31.160
be able to see it tomorrow.

528
00:26:31.160 --> 00:26:32.319
Okay today it was today.

529
00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:34.119
I don't know if you'll see it tonight because they

530
00:26:34.119 --> 00:26:36.680
were talking about you could see that too something this afternoon.

531
00:26:36.960 --> 00:26:41.839
I missed it. But yeah, the moons are doing their.

532
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:47.880
Thing and Russia Shan the five high Holy days of

533
00:26:47.960 --> 00:26:51.920
the Jewish culture is going to be in October, and

534
00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:55.680
then all five of them will be occurring in October.

535
00:26:55.759 --> 00:26:58.720
That's very rare because usually it'll be two or three

536
00:26:58.720 --> 00:27:01.960
in September and the other to October. But this time

537
00:27:02.079 --> 00:27:04.920
all five will be and I'm gonna as we leave,

538
00:27:04.960 --> 00:27:06.920
you know, probably the next month. Part of one of

539
00:27:06.960 --> 00:27:09.799
our discussions will be, you know, to talk about that

540
00:27:10.279 --> 00:27:11.759
our people didn't come in the night.

541
00:27:11.799 --> 00:27:14.599
I hope they were, Okay, I pray that they are. Okay,

542
00:27:15.200 --> 00:27:16.079
we go ahead past her.

543
00:27:17.319 --> 00:27:20.799
Well, I was just going to say that right now,

544
00:27:20.920 --> 00:27:25.200
if we have listeners that are living in Florida, we

545
00:27:25.319 --> 00:27:31.920
are entering into the peak hurricane season. So your guidance

546
00:27:32.039 --> 00:27:41.480
to really prepared is is now, it's game on. This

547
00:27:41.559 --> 00:27:45.359
is where we'll get them back to back and it

548
00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:52.440
becomes very interesting for about a month and things will

549
00:27:52.480 --> 00:27:57.160
start to dwindle. But you know, when it comes to weather,

550
00:27:57.359 --> 00:28:01.480
they it's got a mind of its own. So you're

551
00:28:01.519 --> 00:28:05.240
in Florida, we deal with with after hurricane season, then

552
00:28:05.279 --> 00:28:09.440
the winter comes. We had tornado seasons. So it's pretty

553
00:28:09.440 --> 00:28:15.240
interesting and exciting living in Florida amongst the humidity and

554
00:28:15.279 --> 00:28:20.160
everything else. But I will say that did learn something

555
00:28:20.200 --> 00:28:26.519
about Alaska. Okay, okay, we're in one. Everybody, everybody, Hey.

556
00:28:26.559 --> 00:28:30.160
You see, Okay, thank you, thank you so much.

557
00:28:31.559 --> 00:28:34.200
One thing I learned about Alaska is that everybody thinks

558
00:28:34.279 --> 00:28:36.720
it gets really cold up there. But I found out

559
00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:40.319
that in the winter time, the average temperature in winter

560
00:28:40.680 --> 00:28:44.759
in Alaska where we went was twenty five degrees and

561
00:28:45.599 --> 00:28:54.599
forty five between forty twenty five and forty five degrees. Okay, really, oh,

562
00:28:54.720 --> 00:28:57.480
I became very enticing because this way we don't have

563
00:28:57.519 --> 00:28:59.839
to deal with too cold or too hot weather. So

564
00:29:00.039 --> 00:29:02.839
oh but it does rain a lot, but that's that

565
00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:08.200
that that's the downfall on that. But it's okay. Alaska

566
00:29:08.319 --> 00:29:13.279
was very beautiful, very serene, and a good way to

567
00:29:13.480 --> 00:29:20.359
end my school year because I just completed my my

568
00:29:20.359 --> 00:29:25.200
my school year on Friday, so I get to rest

569
00:29:25.279 --> 00:29:28.480
while everybody goes to school, which is kind of nice,

570
00:29:29.240 --> 00:29:34.160
but a third of my way, a third of the

571
00:29:34.200 --> 00:29:38.240
way from the goal that I have set and basically

572
00:29:38.680 --> 00:29:44.079
focusing on now helping the community. That that's what we're

573
00:29:44.160 --> 00:29:48.960
supposed to do, help the community in ways that we're

574
00:29:49.000 --> 00:29:53.279
called to do. Sometimes just what you were saying, miss Gray,

575
00:29:53.319 --> 00:29:57.359
that when we get challenged by the enemy, we are

576
00:29:57.440 --> 00:30:02.960
to do things that will disturb him, get him frustrated,

577
00:30:03.599 --> 00:30:08.799
and that is to help God's children the way God

578
00:30:08.839 --> 00:30:12.640
helps us, and to give him and give our Lord

579
00:30:12.720 --> 00:30:17.319
the all the credit, because that's something that does not

580
00:30:18.519 --> 00:30:22.839
fall too well with the enemy. But needless to say,

581
00:30:23.359 --> 00:30:29.200
we're called to love one another, and I'm just to

582
00:30:29.359 --> 00:30:33.640
really touch on something very quickly it's Graay you. You're

583
00:30:33.799 --> 00:30:38.519
very familiar with this, so I'll go ahead and publicly

584
00:30:38.559 --> 00:30:41.279
announce it that there was a time when I mentioned

585
00:30:41.319 --> 00:30:43.119
to you that I was going to be writing to

586
00:30:43.200 --> 00:30:47.200
my professor and you told me, don't do it. Well

587
00:30:47.240 --> 00:30:50.880
I didn't do it. Whoever, I learned something from it.

588
00:30:52.519 --> 00:30:59.160
And when I went to service yesterday.

589
00:31:00.079 --> 00:31:02.559
See.

590
00:31:04.839 --> 00:31:09.599
Thank you. See something that you said that prompted this thought.

591
00:31:09.640 --> 00:31:11.319
And that's why I want to just bring it up

592
00:31:11.440 --> 00:31:15.400
very quickly. So this way, Drake and chime in as well.

593
00:31:15.519 --> 00:31:19.799
And that is that sometimes as students, we get frustrated

594
00:31:19.880 --> 00:31:24.079
with the direction that the teachers are giving us, and

595
00:31:24.200 --> 00:31:28.960
instead of speaking about it, we harbor it inside of

596
00:31:29.039 --> 00:31:36.000
us and we become frustrated. Well, we'll admit that. Let

597
00:31:36.079 --> 00:31:39.920
my human side affect me because on a paper that

598
00:31:40.160 --> 00:31:46.079
I had submitted, he provided itidance to help me improve. Well, instead,

599
00:31:46.119 --> 00:31:51.039
I internalized it and I popped a blood vessel in

600
00:31:51.160 --> 00:31:55.440
my eye. What so I had one side of my

601
00:31:55.599 --> 00:32:00.400
eye that was completely bloodshot because I popped the blood vessel.

602
00:32:01.079 --> 00:32:09.039
Allowing my internalization to affect me. I learned when you're

603
00:32:09.079 --> 00:32:14.000
being united by people not to take it personally because

604
00:32:14.039 --> 00:32:18.519
it's to help us improve. Well, yesterday I was led

605
00:32:18.559 --> 00:32:25.119
by the spirit to write to the professor, thanking him

606
00:32:25.599 --> 00:32:34.000
for leading expressing frustrations I felt, but in the end,

607
00:32:35.559 --> 00:32:40.720
leave myself accountable for allowing his guidance to affect me

608
00:32:40.799 --> 00:32:44.000
personally and letting my pride get the best of me.

609
00:32:46.240 --> 00:32:50.839
So as we have children and people that are going

610
00:32:50.880 --> 00:32:56.240
to school beginning now, because I know college just started today. Also,

611
00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:02.759
if you feel frustrated, talk to somebody about it, because

612
00:33:03.319 --> 00:33:05.599
you don't so you don't wind up what I did.

613
00:33:06.319 --> 00:33:11.880
And there's a full terminology for that. Popping a blood

614
00:33:11.920 --> 00:33:14.119
vessel in your eye, and that means that your blood

615
00:33:14.160 --> 00:33:19.160
pressure went up too high, and that's when my wife goes,

616
00:33:19.240 --> 00:33:21.720
you need to stop doing that. So I listened to

617
00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:27.680
the voice of reasoning and realize that that people are

618
00:33:27.759 --> 00:33:33.200
here to guide you sometimes when you talk to the professor. Unfortunately,

619
00:33:33.200 --> 00:33:35.119
he responded back and he said, I wish you would

620
00:33:35.160 --> 00:33:38.519
have told me and we would have walked this through together.

621
00:33:39.720 --> 00:33:43.440
And sometimes when people are trying to guide you, they're

622
00:33:43.480 --> 00:33:46.559
wanting the best out of you, just like God wants

623
00:33:46.599 --> 00:33:54.319
the best out of us. Instead of resisting, just humble yourself.

624
00:33:55.359 --> 00:33:58.839
See where it's going. To take you so you grow,

625
00:34:00.119 --> 00:34:05.160
you grow together, you become a better person. I just

626
00:34:05.200 --> 00:34:08.280
felt compelled to share that because right now we're in

627
00:34:08.320 --> 00:34:12.440
a society where we tend to internalize things and we

628
00:34:12.519 --> 00:34:17.000
tend to do more harm to ourselves into really hearing

629
00:34:17.039 --> 00:34:19.880
what needs to be said. I just wanted to take

630
00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:21.000
a moment and sure.

631
00:34:22.679 --> 00:34:23.639
Thank you so much.

632
00:34:23.679 --> 00:34:31.199
And it's so timely because even with the attack that

633
00:34:30.519 --> 00:34:36.840
I that happened to me and my family, the spiritual attack. God,

634
00:34:37.000 --> 00:34:38.920
you know, I'm just like, okay, you know, I'm ready

635
00:34:38.960 --> 00:34:42.079
to okay, you know. And God said, what you're doing,

636
00:34:43.400 --> 00:34:48.000
what you're doing. I told you to rest. I just

637
00:34:48.039 --> 00:34:51.639
told you the rest. And I said, God, but.

638
00:34:51.840 --> 00:34:55.239
He said, I don't need your help. I don't need

639
00:34:55.280 --> 00:35:01.079
your help. He said, just just rest. And So for.

640
00:35:01.079 --> 00:35:04.400
Those of us who are in leadership, or those of

641
00:35:04.480 --> 00:35:06.679
us who are the old are the oldest in the family,

642
00:35:07.599 --> 00:35:10.679
you know, or some of us who are the youngest

643
00:35:10.679 --> 00:35:13.599
in the family, you know, we take on more than

644
00:35:13.639 --> 00:35:14.199
we need to.

645
00:35:15.639 --> 00:35:17.599
Sometimes you take on battles.

646
00:35:17.320 --> 00:35:21.320
Wars that's not yours. And you wonder why I can't

647
00:35:21.440 --> 00:35:24.320
get myself out of this? Why can't I I don't

648
00:35:24.360 --> 00:35:28.360
even see the shore, I don't see life, and you

649
00:35:28.480 --> 00:35:31.920
realize I wasn't. This wasn't supposed to be my fight.

650
00:35:34.800 --> 00:35:38.280
And then you have to stop and repent.

651
00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:42.320
We have to repent. When you know you're doing wrong,

652
00:35:42.360 --> 00:35:43.079
you gotta repent.

653
00:35:44.559 --> 00:35:47.079
And when I teach, I teach a series on the

654
00:35:47.079 --> 00:35:49.840
steps of the righteous, and in between each step, I said, repent,

655
00:35:51.519 --> 00:35:55.480
give you the step repent because we all for fall

656
00:35:55.599 --> 00:35:59.480
short on a daily And I had to cry out

657
00:35:59.519 --> 00:36:01.079
the other night. I said, I don't I mean, I

658
00:36:01.079 --> 00:36:03.199
cried to my daughter. I said, I don't want this

659
00:36:03.239 --> 00:36:07.440
thing on my mind anymore. My flesh is is not

660
00:36:07.599 --> 00:36:11.440
my friend. It's trying to run things and run ideas

661
00:36:11.480 --> 00:36:13.679
and show me visuals, and I don't want to see it.

662
00:36:13.960 --> 00:36:16.440
I gave it to God and I got to get

663
00:36:16.480 --> 00:36:19.880
out of the way, and my daughter prayed for me

664
00:36:20.920 --> 00:36:23.960
and gave me some words of wisdom. Is you're gonna

665
00:36:23.960 --> 00:36:28.079
be okay? And a stage is a gonna be okay?

666
00:36:28.719 --> 00:36:31.360
How would you know if they're under you're under spiritual attack,

667
00:36:31.440 --> 00:36:32.920
but you and your family be okay.

668
00:36:33.079 --> 00:36:34.800
Oh we're fine, Oh yeah we're fine.

669
00:36:34.920 --> 00:36:38.119
But ye, spiritual attack is with you know, when just

670
00:36:38.199 --> 00:36:41.800
crazy stuff is happening and and the devil uses people

671
00:36:41.880 --> 00:36:47.119
to to do his work. And it could be somebody

672
00:36:47.159 --> 00:36:50.599
talking about you. It could be somebody you know, slangerous stuff.

673
00:36:50.639 --> 00:36:52.840
You know, you don't come from me unless I send

674
00:36:52.960 --> 00:36:53.159
for you.

675
00:36:55.159 --> 00:36:56.079
Nope, don't come from me.

676
00:36:56.239 --> 00:37:02.719
Yes, true, Lisia testing your faith as well, you know,

677
00:37:02.800 --> 00:37:07.320
because he'll send things that are familiar to you, people,

678
00:37:08.199 --> 00:37:12.679
other things to kind of disrupt the applacarte, you know,

679
00:37:12.760 --> 00:37:14.360
upset the applacarte, so to say.

680
00:37:16.079 --> 00:37:18.559
But I was just want to clarification.

681
00:37:18.000 --> 00:37:20.920
If that was right, you know, yes, that is right.

682
00:37:20.960 --> 00:37:22.960
He will he will try to come and mess with

683
00:37:23.000 --> 00:37:26.519
you and try to trigger your flesh to react and

684
00:37:26.559 --> 00:37:29.880
take it out on the individual that's doing it versus

685
00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:32.079
understanding there's a spirit behind that.

686
00:37:32.840 --> 00:37:33.639
There's a spirit.

687
00:37:33.679 --> 00:37:37.679
We wrestle out against flesh and blood, but against principalities

688
00:37:37.840 --> 00:37:43.639
and spiritual wickedness and what high places, high places. So

689
00:37:43.679 --> 00:37:47.480
the devil has his workers of iniquity is what they're called.

690
00:37:48.360 --> 00:37:49.800
He has his workers.

691
00:37:50.400 --> 00:37:53.920
Yeah, and I have a tells me too, just it

692
00:37:53.920 --> 00:37:56.320
says you need to guard your heart because sometimes just

693
00:37:56.400 --> 00:37:59.079
like you pastor, you were saying, you took it kind

694
00:37:59.079 --> 00:38:02.320
of personal. What your instructor says, and sometimes when people

695
00:38:02.920 --> 00:38:06.360
say things to me, is like I get that feeling

696
00:38:06.400 --> 00:38:10.239
of deflate, you know, being deflated and look.

697
00:38:10.119 --> 00:38:13.039
At my facial experience. Let me say, you got to

698
00:38:13.079 --> 00:38:15.719
guard your heart. You can't let that. He said. These

699
00:38:15.719 --> 00:38:17.599
spirits are gonna come and attack you.

700
00:38:17.599 --> 00:38:21.960
You know, the spirits coming all types of things, you know,

701
00:38:22.039 --> 00:38:26.159
the spirit of fear, speirit of doubt, spirit of anger, jealousy,

702
00:38:26.639 --> 00:38:31.679
he said, So, you know exactly, and so uh, and

703
00:38:31.760 --> 00:38:35.760
so I try to work on that really really step fast,

704
00:38:35.920 --> 00:38:39.559
you know, being diligent and working towards not taking things

705
00:38:39.559 --> 00:38:41.320
so personal because I do I too.

706
00:38:41.360 --> 00:38:44.159
Pastor have you know, said well I have to say that.

707
00:38:44.519 --> 00:38:48.400
No, but with me in that concept, like I said,

708
00:38:48.400 --> 00:38:49.119
in this walk.

709
00:38:49.880 --> 00:38:51.880
So I've always believed in God.

710
00:38:51.920 --> 00:38:54.280
I always trust to God, but I'm at a different

711
00:38:54.280 --> 00:38:57.559
place where I'm relying more on him and let him

712
00:38:57.719 --> 00:39:02.199
guide me versus me just trying to do it nearly Willie,

713
00:39:02.400 --> 00:39:03.400
you know, impulsively.

714
00:39:03.519 --> 00:39:07.119
So deliver it in in this walk.

715
00:39:07.360 --> 00:39:10.039
And so when I do that, and I think about

716
00:39:10.079 --> 00:39:12.920
the things that I'm that I learned from you and

717
00:39:13.039 --> 00:39:16.039
Pastor and other people who are in the faith or

718
00:39:16.079 --> 00:39:19.480
in the word, just just guiding me through this process

719
00:39:19.480 --> 00:39:20.639
because it can be testy.

720
00:39:20.840 --> 00:39:21.920
You know it can be.

721
00:39:22.400 --> 00:39:24.719
It can test you, it can test your faith, and

722
00:39:24.760 --> 00:39:28.639
you have to kind of not let yourself in it

723
00:39:28.920 --> 00:39:31.960
where it pools you down and have you doubting what

724
00:39:32.079 --> 00:39:35.280
God wants for for for me to do, and.

725
00:39:35.239 --> 00:39:37.440
It makes you want to quit. It makes you want

726
00:39:37.440 --> 00:39:40.960
to quit. I I I can't tell you how many

727
00:39:41.039 --> 00:39:45.320
times I said, you know what, I'll just stop taking

728
00:39:45.360 --> 00:39:49.679
this class and I'll redo it with a different instructor.

729
00:39:50.400 --> 00:39:55.519
But this morning I prayed and I thanked God. I

730
00:39:55.719 --> 00:40:00.599
thank God for putting this man in my life and

731
00:40:01.119 --> 00:40:08.320
allowing him to transform my thoughts to glorify God. And

732
00:40:08.760 --> 00:40:12.760
when I wrote the letter to him, I told him

733
00:40:12.800 --> 00:40:15.599
in a sense, I said, I know this is very unorthodox,

734
00:40:16.119 --> 00:40:20.559
but I pray that you forgive me for the wrong

735
00:40:20.800 --> 00:40:26.119
thoughts that I had for you, because it wasn't towards you,

736
00:40:28.239 --> 00:40:32.239
it was towards Christ, because we're all part of the

737
00:40:32.280 --> 00:40:38.320
same body. And that's where I was moved by the

738
00:40:38.360 --> 00:40:42.840
spirit to write that, to say, I know you didn't know,

739
00:40:44.039 --> 00:40:48.639
but I know right, and I can't hold something against

740
00:40:49.239 --> 00:40:53.639
a brother in Christ because that would affect me in

741
00:40:53.639 --> 00:40:59.119
the long run. So this is when you take the pride,

742
00:40:59.440 --> 00:41:03.679
you swallow of it and you just thank God, thank

743
00:41:03.719 --> 00:41:09.360
God for the the endurance so I can complete the class.

744
00:41:10.320 --> 00:41:13.239
And and I and I got a grade that I

745
00:41:13.239 --> 00:41:16.199
didn't imagine I was going to get. It was glorify.

746
00:41:16.280 --> 00:41:23.559
I glorified God for it, and he responded back, I said, wow,

747
00:41:23.719 --> 00:41:25.679
thank you Holy Spirit for your guidance.

748
00:41:27.320 --> 00:41:28.400
Amen. Amen.

749
00:41:28.559 --> 00:41:32.519
And as a former college professor, I'm telling you it's

750
00:41:32.679 --> 00:41:35.199
it's from a student perspective.

751
00:41:35.440 --> 00:41:38.480
They you know, and they're looking at you, and I'm

752
00:41:38.519 --> 00:41:40.639
trying to do my job. I got to get this

753
00:41:40.719 --> 00:41:43.599
information into you and things like that. And I had

754
00:41:43.679 --> 00:41:47.800
one young lady. She was a pair of allegiate and

755
00:41:48.000 --> 00:41:52.159
I could feel the pushback. I know, she believed in God,

756
00:41:52.800 --> 00:41:56.519
her her whole disposition.

757
00:41:56.679 --> 00:42:02.280
She went, I guess uh uh diving with some friends.

758
00:42:02.800 --> 00:42:05.639
She was fine, you know, and then she went and

759
00:42:05.760 --> 00:42:09.199
hit a rock and her whole life just turned around.

760
00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:11.599
So she still has some of that anger.

761
00:42:12.280 --> 00:42:15.039
And I forgot what class I was teaching, probably sociology,

762
00:42:16.719 --> 00:42:19.239
and she would just sit in her wheelchairs. She just

763
00:42:19.360 --> 00:42:24.559
like gleam at me, and I'm like, okay, you know,

764
00:42:24.679 --> 00:42:26.800
And I wasn't gonna go tip for Tad and all that,

765
00:42:26.920 --> 00:42:33.599
and she finally handed me a letter one night, and

766
00:42:33.639 --> 00:42:35.280
all she could do is she had tears in her eyes,

767
00:42:35.320 --> 00:42:36.360
and she said, I'm sorry.

768
00:42:37.480 --> 00:42:38.960
So, okay, you're gonna be safe getting home.

769
00:42:39.000 --> 00:42:41.239
You know. Her driver came to you know, the non

770
00:42:41.239 --> 00:42:43.239
emergency folks came and got her.

771
00:42:43.639 --> 00:42:44.519
So I waited till.

772
00:42:44.360 --> 00:42:47.760
I went home and idled down and everything, and I said, okay, God,

773
00:42:47.920 --> 00:42:49.239
let me put on the mind of Christ.

774
00:42:49.280 --> 00:42:50.960
And I don't know what this child's gonna say to me.

775
00:42:51.920 --> 00:42:55.000
And sure enough, she admitted in the first paragraph how

776
00:42:55.079 --> 00:42:55.679
she just.

777
00:42:55.599 --> 00:42:59.039
Could not stand me. How dare you talk about God?

778
00:42:59.079 --> 00:43:01.320
What can you tell me about God? Look what condition

779
00:43:01.480 --> 00:43:01.760
I mean?

780
00:43:02.039 --> 00:43:05.480
I mean, she just and so she was projecting that

781
00:43:05.559 --> 00:43:08.639
off on me, you know, because her body language was

782
00:43:08.760 --> 00:43:13.519
very clear, and I was like, oh my god, she said,

783
00:43:13.519 --> 00:43:17.599
and I felt instant pity. I felt instant sympathy for

784
00:43:17.679 --> 00:43:23.239
her instantly, And going through the letter, she said, you

785
00:43:23.280 --> 00:43:25.599
are the best teacher I've ever had, best professor I've

786
00:43:25.639 --> 00:43:26.119
ever had.

787
00:43:26.800 --> 00:43:28.920
And if I could just stop and listen and get

788
00:43:28.960 --> 00:43:30.039
out of my way.

789
00:43:31.280 --> 00:43:34.199
And listen to you, because I know you represent God,

790
00:43:34.239 --> 00:43:36.960
and I'm like wow, and all I could do is

791
00:43:37.000 --> 00:43:40.320
just sit there. Okay, God, so this and this is

792
00:43:40.360 --> 00:43:44.559
at a Christian school. You know, these are adults getting

793
00:43:44.599 --> 00:43:45.679
their undergrad degree.

794
00:43:45.840 --> 00:43:46.840
So yeah.

795
00:43:47.039 --> 00:43:49.360
And then so as a professor, if I'd have received

796
00:43:49.360 --> 00:43:50.599
your letter, I would have been.

797
00:43:50.480 --> 00:43:53.559
Like, oh, I got to check myself.

798
00:43:54.639 --> 00:43:59.079
Because I could have been off somewhere and projected that

799
00:43:59.239 --> 00:44:02.760
out there also in my delivery.

800
00:44:03.679 --> 00:44:06.679
So we're all so you're checking yourself as a student.

801
00:44:06.559 --> 00:44:10.840
We check ourselves as professors there of Christ because He's

802
00:44:10.840 --> 00:44:14.159
gonna put you in check, and he's gonna make you

803
00:44:14.199 --> 00:44:15.920
stop and take a look at where you were at

804
00:44:15.920 --> 00:44:18.400
What did you just say? You know? And I had

805
00:44:18.440 --> 00:44:21.199
to look at my my, my, my whole demeanor.

806
00:44:21.320 --> 00:44:24.320
This past week. This is our birth month, my birthday month.

807
00:44:24.119 --> 00:44:26.559
And it was the first time I've been on vacation

808
00:44:26.719 --> 00:44:31.000
in six years with the family. And I took my

809
00:44:31.360 --> 00:44:35.599
four legged friend too, and and and after a while

810
00:44:35.639 --> 00:44:37.840
everything we got over things, and you know, things were

811
00:44:37.840 --> 00:44:40.400
better and we had fun and we laughed and everything else.

812
00:44:40.440 --> 00:44:42.639
The kids went off to the beach and I sat

813
00:44:42.719 --> 00:44:45.360
and stayed at the house and and.

814
00:44:45.119 --> 00:44:47.719
I just sat there with the Lord I did. There

815
00:44:47.760 --> 00:44:48.559
was nothing I could say.

816
00:44:48.599 --> 00:44:51.400
I just sat there, and I'm just like and then

817
00:44:51.440 --> 00:44:53.760
of course your mind takes you back and how good

818
00:44:53.800 --> 00:44:55.320
he's been and.

819
00:44:55.320 --> 00:44:58.800
All this time I'm going through this. I get back home.

820
00:44:58.880 --> 00:45:01.440
I get a text from Hawaii. A couple that lives

821
00:45:01.440 --> 00:45:04.960
in Hawaii. The wife works for a publishing company. She

822
00:45:05.079 --> 00:45:07.920
sends me the books that she's donating to my nonprofit

823
00:45:08.000 --> 00:45:13.400
for our work in Ghana. And it's on palettes and

824
00:45:13.519 --> 00:45:18.800
the publishing company is going totally digital, no more hard copies.

825
00:45:19.679 --> 00:45:21.440
So yeah, we can get she can have them. She

826
00:45:21.480 --> 00:45:24.079
can come get a grab a truck and come get them.

827
00:45:24.639 --> 00:45:26.079
We will never be able.

828
00:45:26.199 --> 00:45:29.719
We won't probably have to buy another book for the

829
00:45:29.719 --> 00:45:31.840
library that we're creating in Ghana.

830
00:45:34.000 --> 00:45:36.760
So I'm over you know, over here, Lord, please give

831
00:45:36.800 --> 00:45:37.239
my God.

832
00:45:37.280 --> 00:45:39.000
I get home and look what I got for you,

833
00:45:40.280 --> 00:45:46.679
and I'm like, God, all I could do is shake

834
00:45:46.760 --> 00:45:48.360
my head.

835
00:45:49.239 --> 00:45:52.199
And say God, because.

836
00:45:51.920 --> 00:45:55.599
He's waiting right there. He's right there with open arms.

837
00:45:56.320 --> 00:45:58.480
He's just like, just just give me a chance.

838
00:45:58.599 --> 00:45:59.079
Just give me it.

839
00:45:59.239 --> 00:46:01.480
Just give me one chance if you just take a

840
00:46:01.480 --> 00:46:04.400
little step closer to me, just and I need you

841
00:46:04.440 --> 00:46:06.920
to trust me. I need you to take off. You know,

842
00:46:07.599 --> 00:46:10.719
the doubt and the anxiety and the depression.

843
00:46:10.360 --> 00:46:13.400
And the hopelessness and the poverty mindset.

844
00:46:13.559 --> 00:46:16.280
Just take all that off and just give me a minute.

845
00:46:16.400 --> 00:46:18.559
Just give me a minute, and let me show you

846
00:46:19.760 --> 00:46:22.559
what I have for you. Don't go over there yet,

847
00:46:22.920 --> 00:46:26.400
but I just want you to see. And sometimes people

848
00:46:26.440 --> 00:46:27.960
make that mistake and they jump.

849
00:46:29.599 --> 00:46:33.920
But God's just showing you the greener pastures that he

850
00:46:34.039 --> 00:46:35.719
leads us beside the still water.

851
00:46:37.360 --> 00:46:37.920
Go ahead, dry.

852
00:46:38.960 --> 00:46:41.760
Yeah, I'm just gonna just gonna peeback on on that.

853
00:46:41.840 --> 00:46:46.920
And sometimes when you find yourself in the slot, do

854
00:46:47.039 --> 00:46:47.719
something different.

855
00:46:47.800 --> 00:46:50.800
You gotta change. You gotta pivot right then. You can't

856
00:46:51.239 --> 00:46:54.039
just lay there or just stay there.

857
00:46:54.119 --> 00:46:57.079
Get up, get all somebody on the telephone that that's

858
00:46:57.079 --> 00:46:59.840
gonna uplift you, or that's gonna give you some idence.

859
00:47:00.760 --> 00:47:01.920
Spiritual guide is going to.

860
00:47:02.000 --> 00:47:06.360
Pray for you, just you know, just make you laugh something.

861
00:47:06.599 --> 00:47:10.280
You can't stay in that particular mode you got.

862
00:47:10.320 --> 00:47:11.079
You gotta get up.

863
00:47:11.079 --> 00:47:14.519
And because when you stay too long, it gets harder

864
00:47:15.000 --> 00:47:17.760
to get up and get your get your.

865
00:47:18.800 --> 00:47:22.639
Amen. Just just do it, pastor you want to last.

00:47:25.039 --> 00:47:27.079

is going to be fine. And uh, just know that

871
00:47:38.960 --> 00:47:42.239
when I feel that way, just say, God, this is

872
00:47:42.360 --> 00:47:44.800
this is you, this is all you. You you fight

873
00:47:44.880 --> 00:47:49.960
my battle. I'll just sit here and and learn. And

874
00:47:50.320 --> 00:47:54.159
that's when you really learn trust and and give control

875
00:47:54.239 --> 00:47:57.880
to who it belongs and it's not me. Thank you

876
00:47:57.920 --> 00:47:59.000

Amen, And you know, and we need prayer too. Please

879
00:48:05.400 --> 00:48:07.679
understand this. This is because we're on this side of

880
00:48:07.679 --> 00:48:11.159
the screen doesn't mean that we we can't afford to

881
00:48:11.199 --> 00:48:14.159
go without prayer. So we need our intercessors. We need

882
00:48:14.199 --> 00:48:18.559
you praying for us. And even our engineer, our producer.

883
00:48:18.760 --> 00:48:21.599
You won't ever see her, but she's there. She's listening

884
00:48:21.639 --> 00:48:24.719
to us as well, you know. And I could see Rebel.

00:48:24.760 --> 00:48:25.360
Just pretend like.

886
00:48:25.280 --> 00:48:28.079
You're waving your hand. Just pretend she's waving at you all.
