0:56 So so. Well, good evening, good evening, and good evening. Welcome, welcome, welcome. Come one, come all. Listen in, clear out your ears, pull over, get the radio straight, get the TV channel straight, however you're watching us, get the iPads, the phones, and all that jazz, because it's time for another segment of Setting It Straight with Ms. Gray and her fab co-host, Ms.

1:41 Trey Trey, from all the way from around the way. Ms. Trey, how you doing? How was your weekend? It was nice and quiet. Amen. It was nice and quiet. What about yours? Amen. Well, I'm going to talk about that. I went on a little trip and we're back and all that good stuff. But before we go any further, let's take it to the throne room as we are ending Yom Kippur, 25 hours of praying and fasting. Here we go. Father God, just thank you so much for your love, your saving grace, and your mercy. Thank you, Father God, for these holidays that we can lean in and get closer to you. Thank you for your strength. Thank you for the wisdom. Thank you for the favor. Thank you for the knowledge.

2:23 Thank you for the understanding. Thank you for just sharing your revelations to us, despite what the world is saying. Thank you for giving us the true answers in the right way, in the course corrective way, Father God. Thank you for criticizing us. Thank you for tapping us on the shoulders. Thank you for correcting us, course correcting us. Thank you, Father God, that you just love us so much. I mean, you have filled me with so much revelation. It's not even overwhelming. I'm just sitting there like, wow. And thank you, Father God, that you're revealing and exposing on every realm possible. in every city, behind the nooks and the crannies, in the in-between, underneath, and everything else.

3:05 I know the world is in shock of the things that we're hearing on a daily, but I know that you know that these things have to come to pass. They have to be exposed. And I thank you, Father God. I thank you for the warfare prayers, Father God, the new key chains that we're creating, Father God, with the warfare prayers on and the scriptures, Father God. Thank you that you taught us how to bind and loose, how to rebuke and to chastise, how to ignore and walk away. I just thank you, Father God, that you're just severing, just severing. You're just severing. We just love you so much. Thank you. Unfortunately, the food that's being recalled, the foods that are being recalled, Father God, you've been warning us for years to start planting our own stuff and everything.

3:47 And just for such a time as this. And now people are trying to play catch up. We don't know what to eat. We can't even go out and have a salad without asking the waitstaff. Where did you get your lettuce from? Where did you get your tomatoes from? Where did you get the fruit from? Lord, I just thank you. And I am so sorry that I am not a green thumb person because I would have been planting all over the place. But you placed me in touch with the right people. Father God, that I know when I go and get, we can get our vegetables and we can get our fruit, we can get our seafood, that it is fresh, Father God, and it's fresh from you. And it gives me an opportunity to talk about you, to discuss you, and to let these people know that you led us to them. And I just thank you, Father God, the realness, the conversations, Father God. I just thank you for taking out, seeing my tears last week, over the last few days even, Father God. and counting those tears and placing them in a jar in heaven, Father God, because I know most of the time you are weeping with me. Lord, I just thank you for trusting us. Thank you for trusting us with your people, Father God. This is not no ordinary podcast. This is not like any other kind that's out there in the galaxy.

4:59 And we thank you for that. But the charge, the charge is deep. The charge is great. All we pray and hope is that we do you well and that we represent you well. Now, Father God, we're going to sit back. Actually, I'm going to lean in a little bit. I want to listen to what you have to say tonight. It's going to be interesting as you were revealing even more things, despite the title of being National Preparedness. Father God, we just got to be prepared now. And thank you for revealing and exposing what is truth versus what is made up, what is trying to excite anxiety and fear and everything else so that we will know how to walk this path straight, unwavering, not looking to the left, not looking to the right, but looking up to the hills from which cometh our help. Father, do what you do.

5:49 Set your captives free. We're going to get behind the cross. All this and more. Happy Yom Kippur. Happy Rosh Hashanah. And the next three High Holy Days, Father God, just allow and guide us. Allow us more insight, more wisdom on this. We thank you, Lord. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen and amen. All right, everybody, check in. I need to see everybody checking in. We're just giving God praise. There's nothing like going on a fast. I'm telling you. There's nothing like praying consistently for hours, even though you're driving and you got to make sure you, you know, you get, you go to point A, B and C and you make it back. But it's just, I, I, I'm like, whoa, this time, normally I'll ask people, you know, if you need me to pray for anything specific and stuff, but this time it was for me. I needed, I needed to go underground and stay quiet. Even though I went out of town, I went to my hometown, me and the twins and, last week. And, um, it was very, very insightful and it was good. Uh, I hadn't seen my biological aunt and biological cousin, uh, for seven years.

6:57 The last time they saw me, we were at a few, I came home for a funeral. And after that, I was in the hospital and we had two more relatives on that side of the family to pass away in 20. Uh, I went to the funeral in 2018. Someone passed in 2019. Someone passed in 2020 from the same family. So they hadn't seen me, but I went bearing gifts and, uh, I just thank God that I'm able to do. But that's my heart. I love bearing gifts. I love to be able to. And I've got a great vendor, Sister Morgan, who I can I just say I need a red red basket. You do what you do. I need pink and green. You do what you do. I need blue, navy blue. You do what you do. And every time these people come back with the response like, how did you know? And I said, well, I didn't. He does.

7:45 I just do what he tells me to do. Amen and amen. So I want to go over a couple of things. Even though tonight is National Preparedness Month, I subtitle it from Couponing to Candles. You need to be on all your type of rewards program with the stores that you visit because they are kicking out coupons percentages, 60% off, 70% off, like mad. Today I needed to run an errand specifically for Miss Kaye. Excuse me. And the Lord said, well, you can go to JCPenney's or you go to Bell's. And I'm like, OK. So I was passing. I was right by JCPenney's. I said, let me go in there first. Went in there. This lady was she got out her car opposite of me and she's just looking at me. And I know I look distinguished today because I had on my setting it straight T-shirt on. So, you know, and I was matching, you know, I she can't help but look at me. You know, there we go. All right, folks, come on. I need to see who's on who's got their listening ears on that.

8:43 We need to see you. Come on. Tennessee. Come on, Mississippi. Come on, Louisiana, Washington. Let's go Palm beach. I doubt if anybody's in Orlando, but anyway, except us. Um, but anyway, um, and anywhere else you're calling you're at anywhere else. Um, but, uh, we don't end the JCPenney's and they've already got the Christmas stuff at this main door. They've already got the Christmas statues at Santa Claus's And everything else. And I've got ethnic Santa Clauses. They're very tall. When we pull them out, we'll definitely do a little video for you all. But I like my Santa Clauses and stuff. And they're ready. They've got the wreaths out. They've got everything out. They've got the dish towels out and everything. And you just walk it in one side. It's so cute. But I was on a mission and I went to the department and was able to 60% off. 60% off. Buy one, get one free. You know, just and I just pulled what I needed and got to the to the register and just really just just to see people, the workers, the employees, you know, smiling. I'm doing I'm doing good.

9:51 And they're like, thank you for your patience. I said, I'm not in a hurry. And I know the other people probably want to look at me. I said, well, I'm not in a hurry today. Thank you. But no. were met. I saved, I think at JCPenney's, there was a coupon on my email and I saved $ 35. 10, 35.10. Then I went to CVS and Ms. K needs, she's doing some things with kids now. And so she wanted some goodies for the treasure box. So that was on my mind. I said, well, let me go buy CVS because I've got all these coupons, 30% off a $ 40 purchase. And I got my $ 10 rewards for the month. So I had about $ 11 in bonus bucks to spend, but also I had all these coupons where you know, for $ 40 purchase. Uh, if you have a $ 50 purchase, yes, I I'm up there. Um, so, you know, I, I, from there I got, what was my, I saved, uh, it was over 30% that I got back. So, you know, and then I got these, and the girl was like, she said, when you have some time, would you please do the evaluation? I said, can you put, she wasn't wearing a name tag. I said, can you put your name on the back? And I said, cause I am the survey queen. I will give one if you don't mind putting your name down. And she did, she goes, really?

11:06 I said, yeah, I can do that. So I'm just thankful, you know, savings along the way. Something strange occurred today. I don't know why Publix, this one particular Publix was overly packed. I mean, I circled the parking lot three times and I could not find even a non-handicapped space. And I don't know what was going on. I had read something came across my Facebook feed last night. And this gentleman was talking about be careful. I'm not be careful, but be aware that the banks, something's getting ready to happen. It's even the more beyond the gas prices and beyond inflation and dealing with the banks. So I'm like, hmm.

11:47 So I went into one of my banks and they're having a staff meeting right out there behind the desk. And I'm like, y'all having a staff meeting? And one young man, he said, yes, ma'am. I was like, Yeah, there's a nasty rumor going around. Nasty piece of conversation concerning y'all out there in the atmosphere. And I'm praying that it's not real. It's not truthful. And he looked at me. And it's just a millisecond, but he looked at me. And I'm like, oh, boy. Oh, boy. Okay. I heard something else, too, milling around. That supposedly they're telling people to stock up on goods because the truckers are going on strike.

12:30 October 1st. I don't know if it's a rumor or what, but I think. That could be. I saw a couple of, another thing came across my feed and, and it was a truck drivers. They said, well, you know, we can't take it anymore. And, and we're, we're not cranking up the trucks. And now, and the, and the viewership was saying, don't just do it for one day, do it for a week. And I'm like, okay, all right. I guess you got double refrigerators and deep freezers at your house, you know, and you can store up everything. But yes, I've heard that as well. And everybody, like I said, this Publix is never that packed. You've got just as many people coming out as going in. This time, there was more people going in, nobody coming out.

13:12 I think, too, because of the gas price. Sorry to cut you off, but I think they were talking about the gas price. There was one. Trucker that I saw that was pleading that the price of gas has gone up so much he can't afford to run his trucks or pay other drivers to drive. So that's, you know, maybe that's what that is because I can get it. You know, I understand. They fill those things up. Exactly. And they use diesel and diesel is always quadruply more expensive than regular gas or even premium. So, yeah, I don't doubt it. So you guys need to go ahead and start stocking up or continue to stock up.

13:54 Get your waters, get everything you can. Get things in bulk if you can. Take care of those who are not as well off as you are. So you can split some of the grocery for those of you who are still on food stamps. Spend wisely. Spend wisely. And as far as the banks are concerned, you know, they're now they're really saying very loudly, you need to have cash on hand. And even one person mentioned we may look like Greece today. On that Friday, they went to take care of their payroll, their paychecks or their accounts. And they could only get $ 75 out. And the banks closed their doors so you can't come in. But the staff today looked really odd. They looked really odd. And even the young man, the person that waited on me, he had to recount my money twice. He had to recount the money twice. So he's... They're just, there's something going on. Something is really, really happening. And they look like they just got the news today because like I said, I've never seen them have a staff meeting. They get everybody.

15:03 I'm sure they, they open up at nine. I'm sure everybody should get there by eight. If they're going to have a staff meeting doors locked, we don't see this. You've got to, they've got a, a, you know, staff room, you know, and whatever, but I'm in you, they're right behind the desk, all of them, you know? So, um, uh, something is happening, whether it's, uh, I'm going to, I don't know. I just, and then the Lord spoke to me. I think it was before I left this morning because I was asking him, I said, now, should we go ahead and, you know, tell folks to, you know, start pulling some money out the bank and just have enough to cover the bills towards the end, for them towards the end, as we're nearing the end of the month. And the Lord didn't say anything to him. And then all of a sudden he said, just go get your car.

15:45 I said, okay, just go get your car. Cause, and then he's like, why are y'all saving money? I said, okay. And then today I asked for a lower denomination of bills. I said, because the stores are having a hard time just breaking a 20 almost, let alone a $ 50 bill. So I'm just being really real with you. It's just too much going on that you don't know what could be true, what could be happening any moment. I saw where, let me see if I could pull that up and then I'm going to go over some scriptures. Nobody's checking in. So I hope everybody's okay. Um, I'll go take it personal, but, um, let me see. Um, it's like storm. It's like weather, different weather. I know here, um, that, you know, expecting rain and stuff like that. So I'm not sure up in this area.

16:35 So that might be what could be happening as well. So, okay. Well, I want to say exactly. Okay. Um, we've got people again, you know, hurting themselves, uh, The comedian Carrot Top, um, is now coming out. He's, he's been, he's hospitalized, but it looks like he tried to hurt himself. Um, uh, one of the actresses' sons, 40 year old son, um, um, and, uh, he did commit suicide and he was in a facility. He was in a facility. Um, We have to take it really serious when people are down. And there's another young lady that they said she sent out Cindy Crawford's son, the model Cindy Crawford's son. There's a singer or an entertainer of some sort who sent out a cryptic message on her Instagram and basically saying goodbye. And, you know, of course, that's, you know, I would be sending people to her. I wouldn't be trying to speculate or have a conversation over the phone. If you know where she lives, I would go to her. She's now, you know, oh, everything's OK. Well, no, obviously everything is not OK. President Trump is going after the national health folk. And how they spend their money and all the grants that they,

18:07 monies that they've given out. He said, I've not seen any proof that where you're giving out these grant monies, that these agencies are making a difference. And I was doing that. Yeah. And I had mixed feelings about it because coming from a funder perspective, I don't want to keep looking over there. Coming from a funder perspective, I know that we did our best when I worked for Children's Services Council. We encouraged all but begged new organizations to come to step up to the plate. And that we, I mean, we poured out everything. We did an orientation about what the grant monies are to be used for.

18:49 You had access to us a week before we put it out on the street. We notified everybody. We've done everything because we were tired of the same old agencies coming to the table, doing the same old thing. So this is where I got, I had mixed feelings about it because I don't blame him. We've been funding you for 20 years almost. And What's the results? You just say that you put out information and stuff, but you're not making a difference. We're making an impact in folks' lives. And that is real serious. That's money. All we're doing is, you know, giving you a paycheck and you're not impacting the world. You're not impacting your community. And I've got a big problem with that because I know for a fact that when you are about change and you really are feeling like, you know, you really have great intentions of making a difference. Oh, we will see a dent.

19:43 We'd see a dent. And he's, and I'm charging all the organizations out there, the, you know, American cancer society, the lupus society, the blood, high blood pressure, hypertension groups, leukemia, epilepsy, all this because it's epilepsy is getting worse than getting better. So if you're doing preventative stuff, how come this is getting worse? How come lupus is getting worse? You know, I, and then now y'all are pushing out all these drugs that have major side effects because everybody's wanting to get it. You know, just like when they started with the, not the Monjaro, but the first one that was injectable and it was for diabetes. And the people who have diabetes can't get it because it was losing, helping people lose weight.

20:31 And now they jacked it up to a thousand dollars a pin. Yes, ma'am. Go ahead. Ozempic. Ozempic. Thank you. So, you know, I mean, I, I, in this case, I really don't blame him for him to be able to look at the statistics and see there's, you're not moving. You're not even moving the needle and he's pulling back and he's gonna, he's, he's, he's designating an oversight committee to go after the national health association. Go ahead, Trey. I'm going to try to find that. So I think what, what, um, what I've learned with some of the things that, you know, um, The things that I've experienced a lot of times, and I know it had gotten better when I was down there, but looking at instead of organizations determining what's best for the community, empower the community or engage the community to identify what will be helpful for them. Because if you're, especially if you're not from there and you're trying to tell them what will be in their best interest, and yet they have to live there every day. So I, I would suggest, um, any organizations, if you're trying to nonprofit, excuse me, nonprofit, or trying to make a change, develop a community or family engagement board, include families on your board. Sometimes we don't do that. Organizations will get lawyers, they'll get attorneys. Um, they'll get people who are able to fundraise, but, uh,

22:01 look a little bit on the outside and identify community members to be able on a board. And that does what? That teaches a lay person how to learn about what it means to be a board member. That gives their point of view or points of view of what they see in their communities and how things can be betterment. And they're likely to empower or engage other persons in their communities to take part. But sometimes you have to give people a voice of a voice and a platform. And though when I was down there, we were we had that initiative and we had a family member. This gentleman said, Trey, I want to do this, this, this, this and this.

22:45 I said, give us a second. He wanted to do a fishing derby. And we did one right there in the glades. And we incorporated the Girl Scouts. We had the Sheriff's Department, Florida Wildlife Commission. We had different folks coming out there on a pier at 6 o'clock in the morning. It had rained. And when I say people. Were still there, my supervisors came from the West Coast out there to the Glades to do that. They got fishing poles donated free. And each kid could walk away with one. All they had to do was to learn how to appropriately drop it. So the partnership was where I think Florida Wildlife Commission showed the children how to officially drop it, to drop it because you can cast. You can drop it in the line. And that child walked away with a brand new fishing pole. So it's, you know, be, you have to be kind of creative. And, you know, if anybody, I'll just put it out there. If anybody wants to find out more on how to do community engagement or community.

23:47 Planning, reach out, reach out. You know, that's, that's, that's my baby. I love it. And so. But the goal is to be able to show people what they're able to do. Because you'd be surprised. People are resilient in their communities. They've overcome a lot of stuff, especially communities with high risk, crime, poverty, lack of employment, lack of resources. They have sustained themselves. You'd be surprised at what they're able to do. And they love their communities. And nine times out of ten, they don't want to leave. So if you engage and empower them, they're more apt to show you what will be built more beneficial.

24:28 Now, is it a hundred percent? No, you have to be strategic in how you do that. Okay. Yeah. Um, it's the national Institute of health, NIH research grant. That's what it is. And, um, The order says it's representing a major shift in how they're going to be given. They're going to have an oversight committee to evaluating and deciding which scientific research grants receive NIH funding. So because all this time, NIH is giving all over the place and it has nothing to do with human research even, you know, it's all over the place. And where have you made a difference? I mean, look at our group up there, you know, the Mississippi, Louisiana, Washington group just over the weekend, one weekend created a potluck meal and fed 27 people, fed 27 people. Like Trey said, you don't know what people can do. You got to stop handing them the fish and teach them how to fish. OK, and we got it. And it was so funny. You should bring that up, Trey, because today I was was a day or yesterday I was talking with somebody how I was able back in the day. I forgot what the agency was called, but we could actually get monies and engage neighbors to take care of neighbors, to do some respite and stuff before respite was a word. OK, and they will come in and we give them a couple of dollars for just spend some time with them, you know, for two hours a day or three days a week. I mean, we had that kind of capability where we could do that. Then I would pull some

25:59 of my churches in and I said, I need about five volunteers from each church. I've got 10 people sitting at home. Can you just call them? Can you just call them twice a week and just to say hi and get a report back to me their needs? I'm back at doing that now. I'm like, you know what? I tell you what. I said to my handyman, I went into a store. The owner of the store said that there was a person that was in need. They needed like a handyman person. I said, oh, I've got one. And so I told him and they never called them. But guess what? They haven't called him yet. But I told him the Lord laid it on my heart to tell him. I said, go easy on what you would charge him and I'll pick up the rest. Just don't tell him. Go easy on what you're going to charge.

26:40 You would originally that you want to charge him and I'll take care of the rest. He said, OK. And they never called him. So you're missing out on your blessing. And that's fine. If you've got somebody to do stuff for free, go for it. Go for it. But don't be, you know, be careful when you ask people stuff, you know, and stuff. So, you know, I and all we all our listeners are proving is this proof in the pudding. This is what faith looks like. This is what faith looks like. We went to this hotel in Palm Beach and over on Singer Island. And all the staff were Caribbean and the majority of the staff. And I don't know why I got into telling my story. And I said, yes, hey, Mickey.

27:21 That was nice to hear. Hey, Mickey. And I don't know why I'm standing up there. The kids are sitting in the car waiting for me to get the key and tell them to come on in and unpack the car. And I mean, by the time that evening, everybody knew our name. Everybody knew my name. Hello, Ms. Gray. Do you need anything, Ms. Gray? We got double housekeeping. I'm like, and then they had chocolates on the bed. I'm like, what? Okay, y'all. And I had to tell them, you can't. Now, I'm concerned because It's okay that you make up the, you know, you do the room, you clean it up and everything while we're gone. But then we went back out and we came back. I've already laid out stuff. I don't need somebody else going in the room just to put some chocolates on the bed. Leave the chocolates the first time. Okay. You know, and they're like, oh, so I had a list of things I had to tell them. And I said, I want to come back here. I really do. But I don't want, I'm not going to be on the ninth floor anymore next time. I'm not. And I was just talking to the young lady as we're checking out. And, um, I mean, I, I, the young lady going in, they looked at my head, my setting a straight t-shirt on and they're like, Oh, you have a, and I was just talking. I wasn't trying to tell them, inform them on it. I said, yeah, cause on my, on my podcast, if we said something, they said, you have a podcast. I'm like, Oh shoot.

28:35 There we go. I didn't mean to really say that, but I said, well, yeah. And I looked, I looked at my shirt and they're writing down the step on the shirt. So I don't know if they're joining us or not, but, You know, there were excellent staff and everything, but, you know, there were some concerns. And by the time we were leaving, you know, I gave him a list of stuff and I say, I'm not going to do an evaluation on you. I won't do a survey on you because at least I'm telling you. And she was writing down what I was saying. But we just got to be very mindful. I mean, and unfortunately, millions of dollars, trillions of dollars later, we've misspent money. And we didn't hit it on the target. We didn't hit things on the head, you know. And now, you know, we've got people who are dying. We've got people who are sicker, you know, because you may give them something for high blood pressure, but it affects their kidneys. Years ago, I was on a high blood pressure medicine that was trifold.

29:28 It was a diuretic, which makes you go to the bathroom. It brought my blood pressure down and it covered and protected my organs. I can't find the pill nowhere. I keep asking my doctors, well, have you heard about this one? They're like, no. I said, yeah, it was a try. It's try something. And I took it and everything. And I mean, I knew my organs were fine and my organs even going into the hospital were fine, you know, but they came, they don't took that off. Who wanted to try glyceride, was it? Who wanted to try glyceride? I don't know what that is. And like I said, it was three things it did and it did it very well. And now all of a sudden it's not on the market anymore. But thank God, you know, I don't need it anymore. I don't need the high blood pressure medicine. I don't need nothing for diabetes.

30:10 I don't need anything for inflammation. Okra, water. That's all I'm going to say. All right. Amen. So now I'm going to just segue over because it was a couple of scripture requests. And I wanted to go into that real quick. 2 Timothy 1 and 7. So hang on, guys. Let me get over there. 2 Timothy 1 and 7. I highlighted it. But God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. I know that is very clear. You know, he's not going to give us fear. God is not a God of fear. And in scriptures, you'll see where you fear God. It means reverence God, love him.

30:56 Not like, oh God, that's God. Oh my God. You know, I'd be scared to disappoint him because once God lifts his hands off of you, he don't kill anybody. He just removes his hand of protection. I want, you got to understand that. I know everybody wants to say, why would God kill? No, God don't kill anybody. Even the enemy, he just moves or he'll challenge the enemy to have you considered my servant, Trey, Job one. And, and, and, and, and, and, The person, the worker of iniquity should have enough sense to say, oh, no, that's one of your girls. That's your special daughter there. I'm not. And God said, no, no, no, no, no. As long as you don't what? Shave her head or kill her. But go ahead. Go ahead. So yes, we will always be tested on every hand, but as power, we have power. Oh my God, I got into my scriptures.

31:44 I was so happy just to get into my scriptures and being able to highlight, and I'm getting ready to do a whole new batch of key chains with the spiritual warfare scriptures on it. And I was just so excited about that and bookmarks as well. And just to see the scripture, because the scripture reminds me of history. It reminds, it informs me of my power and authority. So a lot of times I'm saying things and you're like, wow, why is she saying that? Whoa, where'd she get that? The scripture specializing in spiritual warfare, the scripture. I have been called a witch before. Yeah. Cause I know that you can't, well, you need to go read the scripture that I'm quoting, that I'm reciting, that I'm living off of, that I'm a living proof of.

32:29 And you tell me again, if I'm a witch. Because I'm not trying to get you to like me. I'm not trying to get any friends. I'm not trying to get nothing from you. Nothing. I have a favorite saying, you'll need me before I need you. All right, let's go to the other scripture. All right. And sound mind. That's just God don't like confusion. He's not an author of confusion. He don't want you to walk away from Bible study confused. He don't want you to study a scripture. Now you can read the scripture. That's where the confusion comes in. Because if you go back with pen and paper and you study the scripture and you highlight, you're going to look up the different words. I taught you all that a few weeks ago. Go look up the different words, the buzzwords in the sentence, and then put the definition, the defined word into that scripture. Get a whole different view. But you got to study. You can't just read it, recite it. And I can't tell you how many people I run into. They're like, oh, yeah, girls, you know, I'm I'm blessed and highly favored. And I'm like, so what does that mean? But you're on the street corner begging for money. What scripture are you are you representing?

33:29 I'm just curious. Oh, I had a cousin. Oh, girl, I'm blessing Holly favorite. I said, yeah, but you sleeping around, sis. And we had similar spiritual gifts. And I'm like, what you're doing? And she's no longer with us. Okay, let me go to the other one. So I hope somebody understands. You're not supposed to be afraid. And the more you grow in God, the more you study your word, the more you pray unto him and believe he's going to do it. Now, remember now, what's that question? How long should you pray about a thing? What was the answer? Until your faith level meets your prayer request, which only means, just like with us, you're like, okay, we're hoping that, you know, this is a dangerous thing to do. Annie meddler. Okay.

34:14 A person can get sick sleeping around. Yes. Yes. Yeah. Anastasia, is that you? Is that somebody, is that another meddler? Okay. She'll answer. But anyway, power and authority. I walk in authority now. It's me. Okay. We got the whole family on here. Amen. All right. Let me go take, let me go take a look at this other scripture here. Um, Somebody asked about Deuteronomy 28. And as I explained before, Deuteronomy is the blessing and cursing scriptures. Deuteronomy chapter 28, verses 1 through 14 are all the blessings. And verses 15 through 68 are all the cursing. And you go and study it. Go and study it. Because if you're around me and you hear how I pray, you'd be like, what is she saying? I'm quoting scriptures. We had to listen to the show on YouTube tonight. Oh, okay. Okay. Okay.

35:14 All right. So Deuteronomy 28. Let me get the other one here. What was the other one? Oh, Philippians 4 and 13. Let me go there. Philippians 4. Philippians... four and 13. Now what's, what's so beautiful about God. I can give you my interpretation and what revelation I get. But if Trey goes back and she studies those scriptures, she comes back on next week. She goes, look what, look what God told me about these scriptures. Cause they have triple quadruple octo, you know, octuplet definition, depending on what the person needs as well. When God directs you to scripture, He knows it's what you need at the time. Okay, Philippians 4 and 13. I can do all things through Christ, which strengthens me, which means you get out of the way.

36:05 The scripture says, do not lean to your own understanding. I've lived a life of that. I can raise my hand. I have nothing to hide. I've told you, I've shared with you my pawn days and my going to payday loan places days. And I remember that. I lean to my own understanding until that last day I walked in and I said, I can't come back here anymore. And the employee said, no, I got you. Just come tomorrow. I got you. I was paying off the loan. And I said, no, I can't serve you and him at the same time. I thanked her for her courtesy, her professionalism. I said, God bless you. You can burn my file. I will not be back. And it was hard. It was hard. I'll go find a job first before I ask anybody because I got tired of people not being there for me. And you got money. And those same people, if they're still alive, looking at me like, okay, I wonder where she going.

36:55 Nothing. I ain't doing nothing. I'm seeding the kingdom. But yeah, I can do all things. I am unstoppable in Christ with the blood, the heaven, the heavenly host behind me, my angels backing me. There's nothing I cannot do. Nothing. And I think outside a box that don't exist because it allows me. That's my creativity. It allows me. That's my spontaneity. That's my quick response. That's my quick turnaround. I don't operate like this. I don't have tunnel vision. I look to the hills on which cometh my help. And I've told you that whole story. I've seen cattle laying on top of each other. So if my God owns cattle on a thousand hills, he never tells us how many cattle are on each hill. So I hope that that did answer some of the questions, but it's about faith. And as I was thinking about this today, while I'm in consecration, Now, that's one thing. When you're resting in God, you're still moving unless you take off the day and you cut off everything and you don't eat anything. You don't drink water. You don't bathe. You don't do nothing. But get out your bed, put your play clothes on and you sit in one spot. I've been consecrating, but I had errands to run. I couldn't.

38:07 I didn't use no foul language. I didn't look at somebody and wonder why you cut me off. I didn't do none of that. I stay focused in my hope and being holy. for the whole 25 hours, had my gospel music on. I put it on my, I did click on my iHeartRadio just to hear. I can't. Let me put it back on gospel. Let me put it back on gospel. I need music all around me, all around me. I had the TV off. I had the TV, Jazz looking at me like, you all right? She's like, what's wrong with you? She's looking at the blank TV. And everywhere I went, And this is how beautiful God, how much he loves us so much. Everywhere I went, I got money coming back. Got money coming back. For my shopping at CVS, I got a $ 7 credit. Plus I use all my coupons over $ 35 worth. Come on now.

38:57 And that's how beautiful he is. He don't do tit for tat. He loves us. And I was thinking, well, I was saying earlier, and I'm thinking about, you know, tonight and everything. And all I saw was I'm telling you all, this is what I saw. I was telling you all, like I'm talking to you all now. Faith is, and I've shared this before, that we come to your city and we go to the municipality city hall. Usually they have stairs in the front of it. We go and I tell you to go to the top of the stairs. We blindfold you. you're not touching any handrails or nothing and I tell you follow my voice that's faith and you're not oh no miss gray is saying follow her I'm right here angels are surrounding you they will not let you fall or stumble just follow my voice that's faith faith is that what you hope for and the evidence of things what That's the definition of faith.

39:53 But God showed me that. So I was going to tease y'all and say, we're coming to your city. We're going to take the show on the road. We're coming to your city. So Mississippi, West Virginia, Virginia, Washington, D.C., Louisiana, Tennessee. Where are my Tennessee people? I don't know why. Maybe, like you said, the rain, the weather. It could be the weather. But, you know, I had that funny thought today, too, to put the show on the road. We fly Trey down and we ride out. We ride out. That would be cute. Yes, it would be. Yeah, but we're not coming just to, you know, sit around and have some, you know, charcuterie board stuff. We're going to get in the hood and we're going to get in the neighborhood and we're bringing food and things like that and administering to people and things like that and have a live show. That would be funny. That would be funny.

40:42 Yeah. I'm going to tell you about some future trips that are coming up. in the spring also. So if anybody wanted to hop on a plane and join us, we're going to be doing some things. Pastor Miguel and I, we're going to do some things. So we'll tell you about that as God, yes, as God opens that door and gives us the allowance to to do that. But yeah, Trey, don't be surprised if I call you and say, and you're like, Lisa, you know, you sound kind of close. I said, yeah, I'm standing right here in front of the organization. I think that's your building. Six, six, two, five, three, two, 13, 25. That's not you. You're like, are you serious? And everybody, all your coworkers are going to get, where's she going? They're going to get up and come out. I said, yeah, I'm here now. And you and you get on my nerves.

41:23 So don't talk to me. Anyway, don't be surprised. Cause I am, I, I, I, I've got a, I got some, uh, revelation from God and I am just excited right now. Cause I, I, he's given me a project and I was like, yeah, I can do that. I can do that. So when he gives you revelation on things, you may think it's one, that's one thing. I don't put God in this bag. I don't put them in a box, but I'm, when I'm asking him for things, I don't like, and this is where we get tripped up at. Cause you're thinking is coming this way. And the wealth of the wicked, that whole scripture, everybody's blown that out of proportion. It's not about the wealth of the wicked is laid up for the just. That is true. But you don't know where and how and when. You don't know. So like today, I got nearly $ 100 back in rewards and cash, bonus dollars and everything else. And just in some revelation, I got the wealth back. I got my wealth back favor at the hotel. The young lady, I didn't know she could do that. I'm just telling her some things, you know, I'm done because I said, I'm coming back.

42:29 I want to come back. I really liked the, the, the beaches right there. And I got pictures of the, the water just rustling in and I loved it. And it was just so soothing for me. And I didn't even know until she typed out my printed out my bill and she gave me, she took a hundred dollars off. Look at God. And this is over in Palm beach. Who does that? But I didn't ask for that. I just, you know, and I tipped my waitstaff. I'm the housekeeping people. How many of y'all do that? If you're going to write and ask for extra towels, even if you don't ask for anything, you need to put, you know, put $ 3 down in the little tray and let them, it's for them because they're hardly getting anything. Paycheck wise. How many of y'all do that? That's how God blesses you. That's how he can bless you with money. That's how he does that. Cause he looked at how you do money.

43:18 How do you look at money? How do you pay your bills? Are you always looking for a reason to get out of it? Whatever the case may be. I've been there, done that. So I know what I'm talking about. I know what I'm talking about. I have Rob Peter to pay Paul. I've had a life of that. And once he set me free, Hey Mickey, we missed, we missed, um, Pastor Miguel's birthday. If we did, please tell him happy belated. I certainly will. I certainly will. Yep. I hung out with him and his wife. Um, we, we went out to dinner. Um, And I was on the phone with him today, as a matter of fact, and God just blew us up. I mean, I'm just like, let me just pull over. You just come on. Let me just pull over. God is just too good. The revelation just coming, just flowing, just flowing. And that's that kind of conversation.

44:00 and camaraderie you want, you know, just, Hey, how you doing? Good. You know what? I had a question. Here's a, you know, or I have a question. What did you think about this? And God just showed up and I'm just saying, I'm just, I just pulled back into the parking lot, back into the parking space and sat there in the air conditioner from my car on and let him talk. And we were going back and forth. I was like, yeah, that is good. Oh my God, this is, you know, so, and he always says, yeah, we only got three minutes. Trey, you want to add something to take us home? I think. No, no, no. It was everything was good. Everything was needed tonight. I think I added what I thought I needed to add in there. But just, you know, just just just stay the course, you know, just stay prayerful. And, you know, like as in what you say, Miss and Miss Gray, keep your head on the swivel. Always looking around. Things are happening. But also find out the things that you are able to do to get back, you know, something that you're able to do. And it starts with kindness, courtesy, kindness, manners, simple hello. You'd be surprised because let me tell you, times are.

45:04 Life is lifing. It's ugly out here. Yeah, people are going through things. Yeah, it is very, and people are going through things. And I deliberately try not to, I limit what I watch on the news because I don't want it affecting me. And it can, you know, get what you need to get. and then get off of it. And what's that? Um, the, um, the serenity prayer, Lord Graham. The serenity, the things that. Can, and the wisdom to know the difference. And I'm going to challenge you all as we sign it off. When you see a problem, you hear the problem, you hear what's going on. The truck drivers pray for the truck drivers. We may need to have that strike to prove a point. But pray for the truck drivers and their families. When you hear the situations, you know, you pray about that. That's a good way of prayer and PowerPoints, prayer points and everything else. Well, anyway, that's going to be our time. We're going to see you next week.

46:00 We promise. Same time, same station. Take a bow. Take a bow. Night, night. so so Thank you.
