00:03:56.680 --> 00:03:57.439
the rest of the week.

64
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:01.080
Yeah, let it jump off the day. Let it jump

65
00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:03.319
off the day. Let it jump off the day.

66
00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:06.439
I pray that those who are doing the jumping, and

67
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:09.800
it's a negative jump. Oh, you're gonna have visitation. You're

68
00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:13.240
gonna have some dreams tonight. That's gonna change your life.

69
00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:16.720
But when you wake up tomorrow morning and realize.

70
00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:20.480
You were giving the opportunity, the blessing to be able

71
00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:25.319
to see another day, to see October seventh, twenty twenty five,

72
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:28.800
we hope that you'll get it, and you better apologize.

73
00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:32.000
If you act ugly today, you need to apologize. You

74
00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:34.240
need to apologize, and you need to repent. And we're

75
00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:36.800
gonna talk about that some more tonight. Oh it's gonna

76
00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:40.240

77
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:45.560
You doing all right over there? I'm all right. Yeah.

78
00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:48.959
We had an evening afternoon, but God blessed.

79
00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:51.680
That showed out. We prayed right there in the public

80
00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:54.480
and we got everything we asked for and more. We

81
00:04:54.600 --> 00:04:55.480
thank you Jesus.

82
00:04:55.480 --> 00:04:55.920
Amen.

83
00:04:56.279 --> 00:05:00.439
Well tonight, I wanted to finish up well. I thought

84
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:05.680
we would be finishing up the remaining three Jewish high

85
00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:09.040
Holy days. I don't know how was your young Kapoor.

86
00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:12.439
I did it. I knew that my medical team would

87
00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:15.160
not like it, and I didn't tell them anything about

88
00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:17.360
it until after the fact. I had to report at

89
00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:20.399
the end of the hour my meals and what I

90
00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:22.920
did for the day, and I said, I fasted, had

91
00:05:22.920 --> 00:05:25.920
to do it, and it's not a religious thing. It

92
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:28.600
was my faith. It had everything to do with my faith,

93
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:30.879
and I did it. I did it. I don't know

94
00:05:30.920 --> 00:05:32.680
what all was gonna happen after the fact.

95
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:36.199
I just know that I was obedient and praying and

96
00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:41.399
staying in prayer. It was just awesome. And I hope

97
00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:44.519
that other folks follow So were they okay? Because you

98
00:05:45.079 --> 00:05:45.720
oh they.

99
00:05:47.439 --> 00:05:49.319
I didn't give them a choice.

100
00:05:49.800 --> 00:05:54.120
I was like, oh, by the way at the end

101
00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:56.560
of the day, at the end of the eve. But

102
00:05:57.199 --> 00:06:00.519
God is good and their respect that very spectful, and

103
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:03.519
I'm thankful for that. I'm very blessed to have people,

104
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:07.120
you know, a team, and just have people really respect you.

105
00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:12.560
Doctors and the practitioners, all of them, they give the respect,

106
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:17.240
and I'm thankful for that. I'm thankful. This past Saturday

107
00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:22.399
was my I participated in an event here in Ovido, Florida,

108
00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:26.399
which is not too far from Orlando. They did this

109
00:06:26.439 --> 00:06:30.439
for the first time at the Ovito Mall called the

110
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:36.680
Pages and Pen Event, where at least a hundred authors

111
00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:41.240
of all backgrounds, all genres gathered in the mall. We

112
00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:45.360
took up the whole mall and over one hundred booths

113
00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:48.319
at least brought our books.

114
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:52.319
And I was so thankful that not only were we.

115
00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:54.920
You know, you think about it, You're like, I hope

116
00:06:54.920 --> 00:06:58.879
that you know, not you know, I fitted with my neighbors,

117
00:06:58.959 --> 00:07:01.360
my fellow vendors, you know where we were around, but

118
00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:04.800
we were stuck right in the middle of faith based women.

119
00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:10.240
That was just just awesome, awesome. It was just everybody

120
00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:12.480
was looking out for each other and on our side.

121
00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:14.480
I can't account for everything else. I wasn't able to

122
00:07:14.480 --> 00:07:16.199
do like a pop up shop and walk all the

123
00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:18.519
way around. I was not walking in the all. That

124
00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:22.279
sounds fun. Gathering of the authors, Yes, Mickey, it was huge.

125
00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:24.680
That was huge, and folks.

126
00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:25.839
Had their banners and things like that.

127
00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:27.240
I didn't bring one of my bank I didn't bring

128
00:07:27.279 --> 00:07:28.879
my banners because I didn't know what kind of room

129
00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:29.959
we were.

130
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:31.959
Working with in the future. I bring up.

131
00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:35.399
People had huge banners and stuff, and it was just,

132
00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:39.600
you know, I met some new acquaintances and we're gonna

133
00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:42.319
be doing some work together, collaborating on some things in

134
00:07:42.360 --> 00:07:46.160
the future. A few of my folks showed up that

135
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:49.519
surprised me. I put it out there on my social media,

136
00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:51.519
and my kids, the twins especially put it on their

137
00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:57.160
social media. I sold a few books, but had great conversation,

138
00:07:57.639 --> 00:07:59.959
had great conversation and it was so funny. We were

139
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:05.560
in front of a behavioral therapy company. They were closed.

140
00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:07.879
It was Saturday, but they were closed, but I was like, oh,

141
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:10.240
this is funny. I'm in front of the behavioral therapy people.

142
00:08:11.240 --> 00:08:15.319
But anyway, it was good. And this Saturday coming up,

143
00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:18.199
I'll be doing a book signing of the new book

144
00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:23.120
at a local Christian bookstore so for a few hours.

145
00:08:23.160 --> 00:08:26.240
So I'm looking forward to that, and you know, I

146
00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:28.279
had to be God is so precious. He had to

147
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:32.440
remind me because I've been kind of, you know, not worried,

148
00:08:32.519 --> 00:08:33.840
but just really kind of.

149
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:36.679
Like how things are going to be? Lord, you know

150
00:08:38.440 --> 00:08:40.240
what am I going to be doing next?

151
00:08:40.399 --> 00:08:44.720
And he was so gentle to remind me as I

152
00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:48.240
was listening to Prophet Jiles reading a book that is therapy.

153
00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:50.159
Yes it is at the station, and that's one thing

154
00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:53.240
I was encouraging all the customers, all the people that

155
00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:56.879
came by, and even my fellow authors that you know,

156
00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:01.200
it is so refreshing to see people with a hardcover

157
00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:06.559
book at the doctor's appointments, at appointments that they know

158
00:09:06.639 --> 00:09:08.039
that they're going to be there for a minute, they

159
00:09:08.039 --> 00:09:10.440
don't know the timing, but they bring in their book

160
00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:13.559
with their bookmark. And I was like, okay, people are

161
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:16.039
you know? And I think I shared last time. You know,

162
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:19.200
ms K does tutoring and we were at a local

163
00:09:19.240 --> 00:09:22.679
library and to see that library pack they did not

164
00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:25.519
have speakers, they weren't having events. Those are people. This

165
00:09:25.639 --> 00:09:29.480
is late in the evening too. It was gloomy outside

166
00:09:29.480 --> 00:09:33.559
and everything, but people came in, you know, giving books,

167
00:09:33.639 --> 00:09:38.440
all ages, all ethnic groups, all cultures, which was so amazing,

168
00:09:38.559 --> 00:09:41.559
Like I just sat there watching this like these, I mean,

169
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:46.480
people are serious about books, a hardcover book, and it

170
00:09:46.519 --> 00:09:49.879
was very refreshing to see that. While we do appreciate technology.

171
00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:54.840
We appreciate we have ebooks. We appreciate you know, being

172
00:09:54.879 --> 00:09:59.120
able to get things electronically, h you know, you can

173
00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:03.159
get the ePrint books and all that kind of stuff,

174
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:07.399
and we appreciate technology, but it's just so crude and

175
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:12.120
refreshing to see folks looking seriously for a book and

176
00:10:12.679 --> 00:10:16.039
had several books in their hand. And even those who

177
00:10:16.039 --> 00:10:19.440
are billionaires talk about the fact that they read five

178
00:10:19.480 --> 00:10:22.799
to seven books a month, they still do that to

179
00:10:23.159 --> 00:10:27.360
educate themselves, to be better conversationalists, you know, to be

180
00:10:27.399 --> 00:10:31.039
able to participate in society. And that's what books do

181
00:10:31.159 --> 00:10:34.360
for you. I remember as I worked in the library,

182
00:10:34.480 --> 00:10:36.639
the city library, I would go and get the book

183
00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:40.039
of Quotations of all books that was in the reference section,

184
00:10:40.360 --> 00:10:42.960
and I'm sitting at the desk, sitting there going through

185
00:10:42.960 --> 00:10:45.799
all these quotes and stuff, and you know, it was

186
00:10:45.919 --> 00:10:48.399
just something. I don't know why I did it. I

187
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:50.639
just knew that at fourteen fifteen, I have a lot

188
00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:52.559
of audio books for the driving, but I'd like to

189
00:10:52.600 --> 00:10:54.639
hold a book in hand when I get a chance.

190
00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:55.320
Yeah, miss it.

191
00:10:55.320 --> 00:10:59.480
It's just something about having that book, a book in

192
00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:02.679
your hand, you know, and and you know, or a

193
00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:03.679
study guide.

194
00:11:04.120 --> 00:11:04.679
I was looking.

195
00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:07.960
I bought a tumbler from my one of my co

196
00:11:08.039 --> 00:11:10.840
vendors there, one of the vendors there next door, and

197
00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:14.000
I didn't realize that it also came with it had

198
00:11:14.039 --> 00:11:16.120
a book and a work book attached to it.

199
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:17.440
And I'm like, oh my gosh.

200
00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:19.480
I was talking to the you know, the author about

201
00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:21.039
that and she goes, yeah, this is the reason why

202
00:11:21.039 --> 00:11:22.919
I wrote this and stuff, and I'm like, well, I

203
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:25.200
got the tumbler because it was so cool looking, but

204
00:11:25.279 --> 00:11:26.759
I didn't know there was a book and a work

205
00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:27.759
book attached to it.

206
00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:32.039
And I think that's so neat, you know. So I

207
00:11:32.120 --> 00:11:34.879
wanted to just encourage people. Get a book, Get a

208
00:11:34.879 --> 00:11:35.600
good book.

209
00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:38.799
To read, you know, find a favorite, Get an author

210
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:41.840
that you know, even if it's a self help, a

211
00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:44.840
learning book, a work book, you know, an active work book.

212
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:49.799
For my occupational therapists and my physical therapist that came by.

213
00:11:51.080 --> 00:11:54.279
I brought them gifts and in that that in their

214
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:56.879
bags they've opened it by now, but in their bags

215
00:11:56.919 --> 00:11:59.440
work was a coloring book, was a coloring book and

216
00:11:59.480 --> 00:12:03.200
some craym because these are hard working young ladies and moms.

217
00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:06.960
And one is a new mom, you know, and you know,

218
00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:09.840
and I know she's excited and everything else. And I

219
00:12:09.879 --> 00:12:12.399
set it in front of her and the fiance that

220
00:12:12.519 --> 00:12:15.120
you know, when we're carrying the baby, we get we

221
00:12:15.200 --> 00:12:18.279
get all kinds of attention, but once that baby is

222
00:12:18.320 --> 00:12:21.720
out of us, it's like, oh hey, oh, you know,

223
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:26.519
because the baby need anything, and attention is off of us. So,

224
00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:29.639
as I said, sooner or later, he will be he's walking.

225
00:12:29.639 --> 00:12:32.240
He's gonna be walking, and he's gonna be heading the daycare.

226
00:12:32.639 --> 00:12:34.200
He's gonna be heading the kindergarten.

227
00:12:34.480 --> 00:12:37.840
Who are you now? Because things have changed and things

228
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:39.519
are changing, So I want.

229
00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:41.519
You to find that spark of that fun and keep

230
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:43.440

231
00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:47.120
the dating, keep it, keep the date nights, keep them active.

232
00:12:47.120 --> 00:12:49.720
I said. My baby sister posts all the time her

233
00:12:49.799 --> 00:12:52.080
date nights with her husband and they're at the gym

234
00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:53.039
working out.

235
00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:55.879
They're at the gym, so you gotta keep it fun

236
00:12:55.919 --> 00:12:58.600
and you know, keep it, keep it exciting and stuff

237
00:12:58.639 --> 00:13:00.399
like that. So I got them a couple of little

238
00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:02.440
things too that was just on my mind and my heart,

239
00:13:02.480 --> 00:13:04.679
and the Lord was saying, yeah, get that for this one,

240
00:13:04.720 --> 00:13:06.279
and get that one for this one, and get those

241
00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:08.679
colors and stuff. And you know, it really meant a

242
00:13:08.720 --> 00:13:11.600
lot to me to bring that. And then they came

243
00:13:12.039 --> 00:13:15.279
to support because now they and purchased the books, the

244
00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:19.000
book that where it talks about them and my treatment

245
00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:21.559
and everything else. So and I heard I got an

246
00:13:21.559 --> 00:13:25.320
email a text this morning from my physical my occupational therapist.

247
00:13:25.600 --> 00:13:27.360
She said, I started your book last night and I

248
00:13:27.360 --> 00:13:28.240
couldn't put it down.

249
00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:31.240
She said that I laughed and I cried, and she said,

250
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:33.519
I know that it's going to help somebody else.

251
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:36.919
Along the way on their journey. Ah, you know, that's

252
00:13:36.919 --> 00:13:38.960
what it's all about. That's what it's all about.

253
00:13:39.240 --> 00:13:43.600
So before I go into the remaining Jewish holidays high

254
00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:47.840
holy days. God specifically strategically wanted me to talk about

255
00:13:47.960 --> 00:13:50.320
to bring up the fact that you all need to repent.

256
00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:53.879
You've got to have a repenting lifestyle. That's number one.

257
00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:56.399
And then number two prayer points that we're going to

258
00:13:56.480 --> 00:13:57.440
talk about that tonight.

259
00:13:57.759 --> 00:14:00.919
Pray points. What are your prayer points and how many

260
00:14:00.919 --> 00:14:02.919
of you were able to find some scriptures to go

261
00:14:02.919 --> 00:14:04.960
along with it. If you weren't, that's no problem. You

262
00:14:04.960 --> 00:14:08.240
can still participate in the conversation. But God said, you

263
00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:10.440
need to get to know His word. And the only

264
00:14:10.480 --> 00:14:12.759
way you're gonna get to know it not wait from

265
00:14:12.799 --> 00:14:15.320
Sunday to Sunday for the pastor the preacher or Bible

266
00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:18.240
study night during the weekday. But you've got to do

267
00:14:18.360 --> 00:14:22.960
your own Bible study every day every week, regardless of

268
00:14:22.960 --> 00:14:26.720
where you are. You need to prioritize God's word, he

269
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:27.200
said it.

270
00:14:27.559 --> 00:14:30.679
And prayer points. He really he blew up a little bit.

271
00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:34.360
Of the conversation the dialogue today for me throughout my day,

272
00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:38.759
and He was saying, you know, their prayer points will

273
00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:43.080
be a great lead into studying My word. Because the

274
00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:47.240
homework was come up with your prayer points. Let's talk

275
00:14:47.240 --> 00:14:50.039
about them. I'm not gonna discover they're your prayer points. Okay,

276
00:14:50.200 --> 00:14:52.360
I'm not gonna say, oh, you know, no, maybe you

277
00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:55.159
shouldn't know what are your prayer points and then find

278
00:14:55.240 --> 00:14:57.559
scripture to support it, and guess.

279
00:14:57.279 --> 00:15:01.279
What you're learning scripture and you stay right there. The kids.

280
00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:03.639
We had our second Bible study the other night, and

281
00:15:03.679 --> 00:15:04.759
it was to talk about their.

282
00:15:04.679 --> 00:15:06.399
Prayer points and matching scriptures.

283
00:15:06.519 --> 00:15:09.519
And everybody had a whole different viewpoint of that, and

284
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:12.639
we discussed it all and everybody's like, oh, okay, so everybody,

285
00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:13.399
you know, it's no.

286
00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:17.440
There's no right way or wrong way. The only wrong

287
00:15:17.519 --> 00:15:19.000
thing is that you don't do that.

288
00:15:19.519 --> 00:15:22.240
You don't participate, You don't you allow the Bible to

289
00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:25.879
scare you. I've been there, done that, and I've shared

290
00:15:25.879 --> 00:15:26.919
that with you all before.

291
00:15:27.000 --> 00:15:27.960
I'll share it again.

292
00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:30.840
The Bible was the last book I ever wanted to

293
00:15:30.919 --> 00:15:32.960
read net Loan study.

294
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:34.799
But I worked out of.

295
00:15:34.840 --> 00:15:37.159
Church at the Primitive Baptist Church one Sunday and kept

296
00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:39.799
shaking my heads like that don't make sense. It took

297
00:15:39.840 --> 00:15:42.279
me a minute because I had Bibles from the nineteen

298
00:15:42.360 --> 00:15:46.639
fifties at the house, but I finally started studying the Bible.

299
00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:49.480
I didn't do Revelation the first year, too scared. They

300
00:15:49.480 --> 00:15:50.919
look scared me about Revelation.

301
00:15:51.320 --> 00:15:56.279
Revelations book you need to study because it times. All

302
00:15:56.279 --> 00:15:59.120

come soon, be on the lookout. Four. This is the

304
00:16:04.240 --> 00:16:05.120
sign of the time.

305
00:16:05.679 --> 00:16:09.080
Revelation tells you what the signs are, the times are.

306
00:16:09.559 --> 00:16:11.600
We don't know the day or the hour when Jesus

307
00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:14.000
is coming back. We can't say that enough. I'm not

308
00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:16.519

Stop that, because those who are worrying watching those dates.

your gusto.

330
00:17:13.519 --> 00:17:16.920
You've got to slow it, pace yourself because you've got

331
00:17:17.119 --> 00:17:21.440
four rounds to go. Patious, Even drivers at the d

332
00:17:21.599 --> 00:17:24.880
five hundred and the dayton of five hundred, you pace yourself.

333
00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:28.160
If you can put enough gap between you and the

334
00:17:28.200 --> 00:17:30.039
pack around that.

335
00:17:30.119 --> 00:17:33.079
Second time, you need to hold it for the remaining

336
00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:33.599
of the time.

337
00:17:33.880 --> 00:17:35.920
If you could put that gap, then you got to

338
00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:39.599
hold it around three and especially round four.

339
00:17:39.960 --> 00:17:42.400
What are you saying? What I'm saying is you got

340
00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:45.039
to start somewhere. And I think some of you are

341
00:17:45.079 --> 00:17:47.039
going to look back and say, oh my God, the

342
00:17:47.079 --> 00:17:50.160
things I could have done, the things I should have done,

343
00:17:50.559 --> 00:17:53.759
the mindset I should have had, the discipline I should

344
00:17:53.799 --> 00:17:55.359
have had, and I had to repent.

345
00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:57.839
God was so precious of this afternoon I was.

346
00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:01.559
I was sitting there and we were listening to Joshua

347
00:18:01.599 --> 00:18:03.559
Giles for Today's.

348
00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:07.559
Word, and I'm like, oh, and he said one sentence.

349
00:18:08.119 --> 00:18:10.720
I'm sitting there like, oh my god, oh my god,

350
00:18:10.759 --> 00:18:11.279
oh my god.

351
00:18:11.640 --> 00:18:14.680
Lord, thank you. And I'm right there in public doing it. Lord.

352
00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:18.240
Thank you for forgiveness, thank you for correction, thank you,

353
00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:18.839
thank you.

354
00:18:18.880 --> 00:18:19.119
Lord.

355
00:18:19.160 --> 00:18:23.119
I completely forgot. I got caught up. I got caught up.

356
00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:27.279
I got distracted for a moment. He brought me back around.

357
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:30.279
He wanted it. He held time for me to come

358
00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:33.799

00:18:46.440 --> 00:18:48.160
I own nothing.

363
00:18:48.599 --> 00:18:53.039
He allowed, God, Jesus, the Holy, the Spirit, they allow,

364
00:18:53.240 --> 00:19:00.559

That I have. They trust me. I'm just a steward.

368
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:14.079
It's not my books, it's not my podcast, is not

369
00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:16.039
my this myn that.

370
00:19:16.039 --> 00:19:20.319
That's when ah, yeah, even I was on that course

371
00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:22.839
because every now and then those thoughts have just come

372
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:25.359
in my mind. This past Saturday, the Lord told me

373
00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:27.839
how many books of each to take with me, and

374
00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:29.000
I'm looking at the folks.

375
00:19:28.839 --> 00:19:30.599
And I'm like, okay, I can only bring my books.

376
00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:33.000
I should only bring up not my anointed oil, not

377
00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:35.079
my not my book bookmarks.

378
00:19:35.119 --> 00:19:39.160
But I can only bring books. Everybody came here with everything,

379
00:19:39.559 --> 00:19:43.119
and I had one flyer that had my my annoyt oil,

380
00:19:43.160 --> 00:19:45.160
and somebody asked me about the annointed oil. I said,

381
00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:46.680
I'm so sorry. I thought I was supposed to bring

382
00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:50.440
my books I had. I didn't want to redo the

383
00:19:50.440 --> 00:19:53.960
flyer to eliminate everything on there, because next week I'm

384
00:19:54.160 --> 00:19:56.920
probably have my anointed oil with me at the book signing.

385
00:19:57.240 --> 00:20:00.680
And you know I God is good. God is good.

386
00:20:00.680 --> 00:20:02.480
Where's my audience? Who's listening tonight?

387
00:20:02.599 --> 00:20:04.799
I need to we need to see who's listening, who's

388
00:20:04.839 --> 00:20:06.000
on board with us tonight?

389
00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:08.119
I know Anna Stagia is there, Misty.

390
00:20:08.240 --> 00:20:10.759
Yeah, I think we saw Mickey too, Mickey.

391
00:20:10.480 --> 00:20:14.559
As well, who else? Just to just say hi, we're

392
00:20:14.559 --> 00:20:16.880
not gonna call you out. Just like to know who's

393
00:20:16.920 --> 00:20:20.880
listening tonight. And I know many people listen because I

394
00:20:20.880 --> 00:20:23.720
see the reviews not reviews, but I see numbers of

395
00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:26.640
shares and things like that, and thank you all from

396
00:20:26.720 --> 00:20:28.440
Rebel to the crew.

397
00:20:28.920 --> 00:20:32.839
I'm here out here from the crew. They're sharing on

398
00:20:33.200 --> 00:20:35.880
setting it straight with Miss gray Page. They're sharing, So

399
00:20:36.079 --> 00:20:39.079
thank you for that. I appreciate that. We appreciate that,

400
00:20:39.200 --> 00:20:41.759
we really do. God appreciates that as well, and He's

401
00:20:41.759 --> 00:20:42.640
gonna bless.

402
00:20:42.319 --> 00:20:44.279
You for it because you don't have to do that.

403
00:20:44.680 --> 00:20:47.200
You're listening live. But you go back and you take

404
00:20:47.240 --> 00:20:48.960
the show and you said, oh, y'all need to listen

405
00:20:49.039 --> 00:20:51.640
to this. Thank you. We appreciate that. God is good.

406
00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:54.200
We're not going to always be here. So take what

407
00:20:54.240 --> 00:20:58.000
you need, learn what you need, strengthen yourself. But God

408
00:20:58.319 --> 00:21:01.880
seriously wants you all to He said, the best way

409
00:21:01.880 --> 00:21:05.000
to study my word again at your four or five

410
00:21:05.200 --> 00:21:07.880
at least five prayer points? What are you praying about?

411
00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:11.359
What's bothering you in the world? And I couldn't say

412
00:21:11.400 --> 00:21:14.400
what's bothering Trey don't. I don't know what all is,

413
00:21:15.480 --> 00:21:18.319
what's on her concern list? I don't have no clue

414
00:21:18.519 --> 00:21:21.920
until she tells us. And like what even for mss K,

415
00:21:22.119 --> 00:21:24.559
I don't know what's on her mind? What's really, what

416
00:21:24.640 --> 00:21:27.519
issues out here are really bother on inside the family?

417
00:21:27.559 --> 00:21:28.799
What is it? I don't know that.

418
00:21:29.079 --> 00:21:31.480
But you get your prayer points and you get scripture

419
00:21:31.480 --> 00:21:34.160
and you're like, wait a minute, what am I sweating for?

420
00:21:34.759 --> 00:21:37.559
My yoke is easy, My burden is like I'm like, burden,

421
00:21:38.000 --> 00:21:41.680
burden means heavy, you know, weighed down, and oh my god,

422
00:21:41.839 --> 00:21:42.880
and oh I.

423
00:21:42.839 --> 00:21:45.319
Can't believe this is happening. And then I go and

424
00:21:45.359 --> 00:21:48.359
come across my favorite scripture, Psalms eighty one and six.

425
00:21:48.680 --> 00:21:49.880
I'll remove your.

426
00:21:49.839 --> 00:21:54.559
Shoulder from the burden and remove you and free your

427
00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:58.799
hands from the points, free your hands from working from

428
00:21:58.920 --> 00:22:02.359
paycheck to page to pay your bills. I'll remove the

429
00:22:02.480 --> 00:22:07.160
burden of financial obligation that I will remove if you

430
00:22:07.359 --> 00:22:08.200
let me do it.

431
00:22:08.519 --> 00:22:11.039
I want to be my story. In the beginning, my

432
00:22:11.079 --> 00:22:13.400
parents was devoted.

433
00:22:12.880 --> 00:22:16.319
To Sears charge card and Western Auto, which is now

434
00:22:16.440 --> 00:22:19.720
a firestone because we always purchase used cars.

435
00:22:19.720 --> 00:22:20.839
But they were they.

436
00:22:20.799 --> 00:22:23.119
Ran well, and that's the only thing I thought. Okay,

437
00:22:23.119 --> 00:22:25.519
I turned a TV, I got my driver's license, I

438
00:22:25.599 --> 00:22:28.160
went and got my voters registration car, and I got

439
00:22:28.200 --> 00:22:31.359
me a Sears charge card and any hey, eld K,

440
00:22:32.640 --> 00:22:34.599
it's see I share the show so others can listen.

441
00:22:34.640 --> 00:22:36.839
I'm hoping all my friends will learn and enjoy the

442
00:22:36.839 --> 00:22:38.920
show like so many of us do it. Thank you, missy.

443
00:22:39.039 --> 00:22:41.400
That's all you can do. That's all you could do.

444
00:22:41.599 --> 00:22:45.000
I'm putting it out there. You cannot walk by us,

445
00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:51.119
us three Rebel and the crew that the faithful crew

446
00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:56.519
that thisens weekly, that chairs weekly. You can't ever approach

447
00:22:56.599 --> 00:22:58.799
any of us and say you didn't know. You will

448
00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:01.720
never be able to say that to Tree has family

449
00:23:01.799 --> 00:23:04.200
that's listening. They'll never said, well, Tree, why didn't you

450
00:23:04.240 --> 00:23:08.440
tell us you know that we could do this outside

451
00:23:08.480 --> 00:23:11.720
of church. You you can't go and say it to her.

452
00:23:11.759 --> 00:23:15.119
You can't if you've listened, you can't and her lifestyle

453
00:23:15.599 --> 00:23:18.599
she's showing you, Oh no, it's not the church.

454
00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:20.839
We're outside of the church now, not saying that you

455
00:23:20.880 --> 00:23:23.759
shouldn't go to church because you still need to be fed.

456
00:23:24.319 --> 00:23:27.319
Some of you still need You're still babes in Christ.

457
00:23:27.880 --> 00:23:29.640
Get good footing in the Lord.

458
00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:32.680
And you don't know what he has planned and you

459
00:23:32.839 --> 00:23:36.960
have your learning, so let him chastise you, let him

460
00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:42.680
correct you. I appreciate and respect my taekwondo instructor. She's

461
00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:45.440
so gentle, and she's so nice when she corrected when

462
00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:46.599
you're doing something wrong.

463
00:23:47.519 --> 00:23:49.279
You can't be mad you.

464
00:23:49.279 --> 00:23:50.279
The one went wrong.

465
00:23:51.000 --> 00:23:54.559
She just wants you to do it right. She's been

466
00:23:54.599 --> 00:23:56.960
out there longer than you.

467
00:23:57.599 --> 00:24:00.279
Yes, So no, I was just gonna just kind of

468
00:24:00.279 --> 00:24:02.960
piggyback on what you said when you said people need

469
00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:05.920
to be fed, and so I would courage you even

470
00:24:05.960 --> 00:24:09.160
if you're not going inside of the church wall. You know,

471
00:24:09.400 --> 00:24:11.960
one way if if you want to kind of test

472
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:17.119
it out. Now there's technology. Sometimes churches are streaming life.

473
00:24:17.160 --> 00:24:20.160
So if it's a church in your hometown or one

474
00:24:20.200 --> 00:24:23.559
that you heard of, you know, follow it and maybe

475
00:24:23.640 --> 00:24:26.160
listen to it on a Sunday or whenever they hold

476
00:24:26.400 --> 00:24:29.200
the church and see if you like it. You know,

477
00:24:29.480 --> 00:24:33.160
that way, you're not you're not sitting in there feeling uncomfortable.

478
00:24:33.200 --> 00:24:35.920
You can kind of get the vibe through the screen.

479
00:24:36.160 --> 00:24:39.200
You know how they do, what's the procedures and the

480
00:24:39.279 --> 00:24:41.920
protocols and how they do. You know what the program

481
00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:43.880
is like, and then that way you can kind of

482
00:24:43.880 --> 00:24:46.160
get a feel of whether you would want to try

483
00:24:46.160 --> 00:24:48.680
and visit in person. But that's a way, or you

484
00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:51.839
can many churches and it's different churches I follow, and

485
00:24:51.880 --> 00:24:54.799
sometimes I'm able to get on and just look at

486
00:24:55.119 --> 00:24:58.559
the different sermons and stuff like that without even having

487
00:24:58.640 --> 00:25:01.759
to physically go when you know, so that is a

488
00:25:01.759 --> 00:25:04.160
way and sometimes their tape, so that might be a

489
00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:08.079
way to to be fed with, especially if you're new

490
00:25:08.160 --> 00:25:11.359
to the faith or just trying to new to this

491
00:25:11.440 --> 00:25:14.079
walk or trying to find out what it's all about.

492
00:25:14.440 --> 00:25:16.000
And that's a way to kind of get your feet

493
00:25:16.039 --> 00:25:17.160
wet as well.

494
00:25:17.160 --> 00:25:20.039
And not for yourself. I've already shared over the years,

495
00:25:20.160 --> 00:25:24.559
these past few years, at least over twenty sayings that

496
00:25:24.680 --> 00:25:28.079
are not scripture that people try to say that they're scripture.

497
00:25:28.440 --> 00:25:31.400
They're not scripture. It's just good to just be able.

498
00:25:31.480 --> 00:25:35.279
And again we've got technology now, like Trey said, there's no.

499
00:25:35.240 --> 00:25:39.880
Reason why you're not connected to something. There's something that's good,

500
00:25:39.960 --> 00:25:41.680
something that's full and vital.

501
00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:42.319
Let me tell you.

502
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:44.240
And now I know some of your thinking, well, you

503
00:25:44.279 --> 00:25:47.599
know these other little church, these other little people who

504
00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:49.480
really don't believe in God, but they believe in the

505
00:25:49.519 --> 00:25:53.680
atmosphere and the app what the world, the universe, and

506
00:25:53.720 --> 00:25:55.480
the sun and the moon. And you know what, let

507
00:25:55.480 --> 00:25:58.599
me tell you something, Sun and moon didn't create us.

508
00:25:59.480 --> 00:26:02.960
Sunny Moon didn't create us. The rocks, we didn't. It

509
00:26:03.039 --> 00:26:04.200
was no Big bang theory.

510
00:26:04.519 --> 00:26:07.640
Who made the rock that blew up that created humans.

511
00:26:07.759 --> 00:26:10.759
We're going with that. You know what I said? Now,

512
00:26:11.079 --> 00:26:12.599
just listen, just sit back.

513
00:26:12.680 --> 00:26:16.160
Like science has even had to admit there is something

514
00:26:16.279 --> 00:26:17.319
greater out there.

515
00:26:17.640 --> 00:26:19.599
We can't we can't put a name on it. We're

516
00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:20.279
not gonna name it.

517
00:26:20.319 --> 00:26:23.440
What you think, but there's something that's that's a creator.

518
00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:27.559
And the devil can't create nothing. All he does is

519
00:26:27.680 --> 00:26:29.319
recruit because.

520
00:26:29.000 --> 00:26:31.000
People have been so disappointed with God.

521
00:26:31.359 --> 00:26:34.319
God let them down, or they were raised in a family.

522
00:26:34.440 --> 00:26:37.480
My my deceased Husban was raised in a family. All

523
00:26:37.519 --> 00:26:40.559
the mom went to church Sunday, the Blue Sunday. Then

524
00:26:40.960 --> 00:26:44.079
God forbid the man. The pastor had them collecting pennies.

525
00:26:44.079 --> 00:26:45.920
One time we went up there and he said, man,

526
00:26:46.000 --> 00:26:47.960
what is this? He said, oh, we collected pennies for

527
00:26:48.000 --> 00:26:51.920
the church. He said what He almost cussed him, use coffanity.

528
00:26:52.319 --> 00:26:52.839
What did they have?

529
00:26:53.000 --> 00:26:53.240
You?

530
00:26:53.240 --> 00:26:55.759
You ate almost eighty years older, you've beending down picking

531
00:26:55.839 --> 00:26:58.240
up a penny. I was like, oh, you can't talk

532
00:26:58.279 --> 00:27:01.400
to God about about him, about God because he's thinking

533
00:27:01.440 --> 00:27:03.599
that the path that God told the past collect how

534
00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:06.599
the members collect pennies, and I just kept my mind

535
00:27:06.640 --> 00:27:09.039
from I didn't say a word. I was like, oh Lord,

536
00:27:09.039 --> 00:27:11.200
why did you even have the pennies out? You know

537
00:27:11.240 --> 00:27:13.559
how your children are, those that don't go to church,

538
00:27:13.839 --> 00:27:16.680
you know how they are. And I mean, oh my god.

539
00:27:16.720 --> 00:27:18.960
He was walking away, just talking to himself, and I'm like,

540
00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:19.440
oh my.

541
00:27:19.359 --> 00:27:20.400
God, oh my god.

542
00:27:20.720 --> 00:27:24.640
The devil is not creative. He copies, He's a copycat.

543
00:27:24.960 --> 00:27:27.000
He has nothing, he can't think of, nothing new. He

544
00:27:27.039 --> 00:27:29.359
was there in the beginning when everything was created, so

545
00:27:29.400 --> 00:27:32.559
he just comes and messes it up and darkens it.

546
00:27:32.920 --> 00:27:35.440
Oh you you. And he told me. I mean not

547
00:27:35.759 --> 00:27:37.680
that he told me, but you know, my mind told me, oh,

548
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:40.519
I'm not gonna be I wouldn't be a good candidate

549
00:27:40.519 --> 00:27:44.480
for Christendom. I talked too loud. I'm loud. Worked in

550
00:27:44.480 --> 00:27:47.759
the library for years, but I'm loud.

551
00:27:49.000 --> 00:27:51.400
And I got confused with that scripture that blessed are

552
00:27:51.440 --> 00:27:52.119
they who are meek?

553
00:27:52.519 --> 00:27:56.839
That felt meek meant quiet, Well, that's not me. And

554
00:27:56.960 --> 00:27:59.680
had no idea that the gifts and skills and talents

555
00:27:59.720 --> 00:28:03.000
God blessed me with that I utilize on my daily,

556
00:28:03.279 --> 00:28:05.240
in my daily atmosphere.

557
00:28:04.680 --> 00:28:09.720
My daily jobs and organizations. I was a product they

558
00:28:10.319 --> 00:28:11.359
that's where they were needed.

559
00:28:12.359 --> 00:28:14.160
Private school. I thank god I had to go to

560
00:28:14.200 --> 00:28:17.000
private school because I wanted so much. Whether those nuns

561
00:28:17.039 --> 00:28:19.559
in priests were feeling sorry for this poor little black child,

562
00:28:19.640 --> 00:28:22.000
we're gonna help her, we're gonna bring her under, I

563
00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:24.079
don't care what their thoughts were. Guess what I had

564
00:28:24.119 --> 00:28:27.000
the best, and I had the nuns and priests backing

565
00:28:27.039 --> 00:28:30.799
me up when family did not back me up. The

566
00:28:30.880 --> 00:28:31.880
only thing they kind of miss.

567
00:28:32.079 --> 00:28:35.279
Sister Helen wanted me to go the acting route because

568
00:28:35.480 --> 00:28:38.440
you know, we took the school, the state, the choirs,

569
00:28:38.480 --> 00:28:41.119
and and speech debate, and that she wanted me to

570
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:42.359
go that entertainment route.

571
00:28:42.400 --> 00:28:43.519
I was like, there's no money in that.

572
00:28:43.519 --> 00:28:45.680
Sister hell I need to get this math down because

573
00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:47.240
I think I'm gonna be a psychologist.

574
00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:53.759
I'm gonna have to take statistic That was one problem

575
00:28:53.799 --> 00:28:57.960
on one page, takes four pages one for me. That

576
00:28:58.680 --> 00:29:02.240
messed my mind up, but I passed, Thank you Jesus.

577
00:29:02.480 --> 00:29:05.279
Not knowing I would be a collagen instructor one day,

578
00:29:05.480 --> 00:29:08.079
a college professor, not knowing that I would be an

579
00:29:08.119 --> 00:29:11.119
author one day. I don't knowing that touch thing as

580
00:29:11.119 --> 00:29:14.640
a podcast, like like you know, Howard Stern and he's

581
00:29:14.680 --> 00:29:16.480
you know, he's kind of off now, I think, But

582
00:29:16.599 --> 00:29:18.200
you know I used to be you know, I used

583
00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:20.720
to like, Wow, have a radio and people can look

584
00:29:20.759 --> 00:29:22.400
at you and you're on radio and you got your

585
00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:24.880
headphones on them. Now y'all just doing too much, all

586
00:29:24.920 --> 00:29:27.759
that headphone stuff and you just talking to your microphone

587
00:29:27.759 --> 00:29:29.920
and your computer. Y'all need to just really stuff. You

588
00:29:30.000 --> 00:29:32.720
just want to look all matching, look at my colors

589
00:29:32.759 --> 00:29:36.039
and all that. Don't go there. I'm I'm gonna roll

590
00:29:36.079 --> 00:29:39.200
myself out of podcasting because everybody got a podcast now,

591
00:29:39.559 --> 00:29:42.480
Everybody writing books now finally, after we begged you to

592
00:29:42.519 --> 00:29:44.640
do it, tell you a story somebody want to listen to,

593
00:29:45.079 --> 00:29:48.440
but everybody everybody.

594
00:29:47.799 --> 00:29:51.759
Got one now Now I'm bold everybody else is doing it.

595
00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:54.400
I like first, I was at that event this Saturday

596
00:29:54.599 --> 00:29:56.759
and I was telling customers coming up, I said, this

597
00:29:56.799 --> 00:29:58.960
is their first time doing this. I'm won't be back

598
00:29:59.000 --> 00:30:01.079
next year because I've already got my first did I

599
00:30:01.119 --> 00:30:04.319
did it. I'm amongst the first archive.

600
00:30:03.960 --> 00:30:07.559
Of the history at the Oviedo Bomb. I'm happy. I'm happy.

601
00:30:07.720 --> 00:30:09.279
I don't have to keep doing things over and over

602
00:30:09.279 --> 00:30:12.720
and over again. I don't thank you, thank you. I

603
00:30:12.799 --> 00:30:15.319
hope this is helping somebody. You have to study the

604
00:30:15.359 --> 00:30:16.640
Word because.

605
00:30:16.400 --> 00:30:19.319
You're missing out. Not only does it get you closer

606
00:30:19.359 --> 00:30:21.880
to the Triune being right, not only does it help

607
00:30:21.920 --> 00:30:22.920
you to understand.

608
00:30:23.359 --> 00:30:25.119
It's some understanding that you're not going to hear in

609
00:30:25.160 --> 00:30:27.400
any classroom. When you're not gonna hear it any Sunday school,

610
00:30:27.400 --> 00:30:28.799
and you're not gonna hear it in the church, You're

611
00:30:28.839 --> 00:30:31.119
gonna get some better understanding like whoa.

612
00:30:31.640 --> 00:30:36.000
And then more importantly, it's like wow, the power and

613
00:30:36.119 --> 00:30:41.000
authority I know I now have. It has nothing to

614
00:30:41.039 --> 00:30:43.000
do with my degrees, it has nothing to do with

615
00:30:43.039 --> 00:30:45.319
my work experience. I've studied the Word.

616
00:30:45.480 --> 00:30:50.759
I study about my ancestors, Jeremiah and Moses, Ruth, Judge, Debrah,

617
00:30:51.359 --> 00:30:52.039
all of them.

618
00:30:52.119 --> 00:30:54.519
We're back all of them. Those are my people. I

619
00:30:54.519 --> 00:30:56.240
don't have to go to Africa to five nobody. I

620
00:30:56.240 --> 00:30:58.599
don't know nobody that I'm not connected to Africa. I'm

621
00:30:58.599 --> 00:31:02.000
not ancestry dot com. I said, we are come from

622
00:31:02.000 --> 00:31:03.960
the old school, the old Congo. I didn't know there

623
00:31:04.000 --> 00:31:06.119
was a new Congo. Now y'all dividing up the congo.

624
00:31:06.119 --> 00:31:10.160
I don't even know what that means. Oh is, I

625
00:31:10.200 --> 00:31:11.200
could go and I.

626
00:31:11.119 --> 00:31:14.200
Could discuss, talk up to Joshua, I could talk to

627
00:31:14.319 --> 00:31:14.960
uncle David.

628
00:31:15.480 --> 00:31:18.599
I could study about his lifestyle. O was at fifteen, he.

629
00:31:18.640 --> 00:31:21.480
Was just a shepherd boy, that's all he was known as.

630
00:31:21.599 --> 00:31:24.240
And then he Samuel Prophecy, and I know there is

631
00:31:24.279 --> 00:31:26.640
a king. He's gonna be young, but there is a

632
00:31:26.720 --> 00:31:27.440
king and.

633
00:31:27.519 --> 00:31:31.160
His boy teenager, and y'all who are called to deal

634
00:31:31.200 --> 00:31:34.440
with teenagers, if you're not doing anything, you need to

635
00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:38.519
be ashamed of yourself. Because here is David, a shepherd

636
00:31:38.640 --> 00:31:40.359
boy tending the sheep.

637
00:31:40.799 --> 00:31:43.599
Samuel comes to talk to his daddy. Don't you have

638
00:31:43.640 --> 00:31:45.519
another son yet? But he's out there with the sheep.

639
00:31:45.880 --> 00:31:48.799
Let me say, yeah, that's that's that's who we're gonna

640
00:31:48.799 --> 00:31:51.839
need to watch and say, David comes in innocent?

641
00:31:52.279 --> 00:31:54.359
Are my brothers? And then and the day the way

642
00:31:54.440 --> 00:31:56.680
they went to town. You know there's that that that

643
00:31:56.680 --> 00:32:00.480
that large thing in town. Something. He said, well, they

644
00:32:00.519 --> 00:32:03.880
must be hungry, something like a child. He takes them

645
00:32:03.920 --> 00:32:06.599
something to eat, and then he's walking there like why

646
00:32:06.680 --> 00:32:09.319
ain't back here and come here Da, what are you

647
00:32:09.319 --> 00:32:11.119
doing here? Well, I thought you were hungry.

648
00:32:11.440 --> 00:32:13.599
They didn't really tell me what you were doing here,

649
00:32:13.640 --> 00:32:15.119
but I just thought I bringing some phone.

650
00:32:15.559 --> 00:32:18.359
But why are y'all hiding back here? Don't you see

651
00:32:18.400 --> 00:32:21.559
that thing out there? The nine thing, that monster with

652
00:32:21.680 --> 00:32:22.240
one eye?

653
00:32:22.559 --> 00:32:24.480
And everybody wants to talk about the third eye. I

654
00:32:24.480 --> 00:32:28.079
ain't going there with y'all. Keep having the eye, daddy,

655
00:32:28.400 --> 00:32:31.279
wherever it's at, keep having the eye. See how far

656
00:32:31.400 --> 00:32:33.599
you get who you talk off the ledge? Yeah, y'all

657
00:32:33.640 --> 00:32:35.119
gonna be mad at me to now the other people,

658
00:32:35.160 --> 00:32:35.920
not the regular people.

659
00:32:36.160 --> 00:32:36.240
You.

660
00:32:36.319 --> 00:32:38.799
Oh, I got the third eye? What does that mean?

661
00:32:39.400 --> 00:32:41.319
What does that mean? Intuition?

662
00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:43.920
I could No, that's called prophecy. That's called being a prophet.

663
00:32:43.920 --> 00:32:45.960
To me, I can see in the future, and I

664
00:32:46.000 --> 00:32:48.200
have just these two. But I don't see what these

665
00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:49.720
two I see what the spirit?

666
00:32:50.039 --> 00:32:55.200
Sorry, let me come back. And they're like David, like

667
00:32:55.200 --> 00:32:56.440
what I understand?

668
00:32:56.759 --> 00:32:59.680
He reach it in his pocket, walking into the center,

669
00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:03.000
And here's Goliah saying, Oh, that's what y'all do, that's

670
00:33:03.000 --> 00:33:06.000
what you want Israelites do. You're sitting a boy to

671
00:33:06.119 --> 00:33:08.599
do a man's job, and his brothers are like, what

672
00:33:08.599 --> 00:33:08.799
are you?

673
00:33:08.880 --> 00:33:10.880
And then they put on come back David, No, here,

674
00:33:11.000 --> 00:33:12.960
put on the armor, put on some armor.

675
00:33:13.200 --> 00:33:15.599
He's we already know he's gonna Who's gonna tell Daddy

676
00:33:15.599 --> 00:33:18.240
about this one? Who's gonna tell Dad that we let

677
00:33:18.279 --> 00:33:21.079
this boy walk out there? He just brought us some sandwiches,

678
00:33:21.240 --> 00:33:24.160
but we let him go. Who's he put the sheep up?

679
00:33:24.279 --> 00:33:25.759
I hope he like the sheep up in the gate

680
00:33:25.839 --> 00:33:27.440
because he was supposed to be tended to the sheep.

681
00:33:28.000 --> 00:33:29.000
Why are you here?

682
00:33:29.039 --> 00:33:31.319
Well here, put on some armor, put on some armor,

683
00:33:31.599 --> 00:33:33.480
and they're like, okay, we can't stop it because Dad

684
00:33:33.559 --> 00:33:35.599
was like, I don't understand why y'all back here.

685
00:33:35.880 --> 00:33:39.359
He's just one person. He's just one person. You don't

686
00:33:39.359 --> 00:33:42.359
think I want to read about him? Study him now?

687
00:33:42.400 --> 00:33:46.359
He became a king the least expected. His brothers were

688
00:33:46.400 --> 00:33:48.759
known for valor. They were known to be worried. That's

689
00:33:48.799 --> 00:33:50.680

690
00:33:50.680 --> 00:33:52.880

00:33:52.960 --> 00:33:55.279
I can just see David walking. Got his pouch. I

00:33:55.400 --> 00:33:57.440
like my cross body handbags.

693
00:33:58.039 --> 00:34:01.160
You know, David had his cross body pouch. He's digging

694
00:34:01.200 --> 00:34:02.440
in his head in his pouch.

695
00:34:02.880 --> 00:34:04.759
He just said, oh what now, what kind of pebbles

696
00:34:04.799 --> 00:34:07.839

And well he is taller than me. Well maybe blue.

Ruth is a widow. A mother in law's a widow.

702
00:34:24.760 --> 00:34:26.199
Her sister in law is a widow.

703
00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:26.880
Ruth.

704
00:34:27.159 --> 00:34:29.920
Naomi tells the dude, the daughter in laws, I can't

707
00:34:36.400 --> 00:34:37.440
What did Ruth's go do?

709
00:34:39.039 --> 00:34:40.920
I gotta take care. I'm not gonna expect Naomi to

710
00:34:40.960 --> 00:34:42.960
get out there and do anything. I gotta go to work.

711
00:34:43.079 --> 00:34:46.559
She look over, Oh that's some weed over there, So

00:35:05.199 --> 00:35:06.000
of the good stuff.

718
00:35:06.199 --> 00:35:09.159
We are the good leaves. Leave those behind. He said, well,

719
00:35:09.159 --> 00:35:12.320
what's she doing? Well, she's taking care of Naomi. Oh, yeah,

720

722
00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:24.320
David's dad, and David begins the root of Jesus Christ.

723
00:35:24.800 --> 00:35:26.079
Who wouldn't want to know that?

724
00:35:26.800 --> 00:35:30.159
Who wouldn't those of you who are you? Get depressed

725
00:35:30.159 --> 00:35:33.880
real quick? You're introverts. You don't like to do public speaking.

726
00:35:34.280 --> 00:35:39.000
Go look up Jeremiah to Jeremiah, God God himself and said, Jeremiah,

727
00:35:39.000 --> 00:35:40.679
why are you sitting outside the fence?

728
00:35:41.119 --> 00:35:44.320
Everybody crazy? Isn't that I am not good at his speech?

729
00:35:44.360 --> 00:35:46.079
He said, well, I asked you to be good of speech.

730
00:35:46.519 --> 00:35:48.320
You need to tell them what I told you to

731
00:35:48.320 --> 00:35:48.679
tell him.

732
00:35:49.119 --> 00:35:54.199
Moses, Moses kill the man saved as a baby, raised

733
00:35:54.199 --> 00:35:58.119
in the King's house, in the King's palace, soldier.

734
00:35:57.920 --> 00:36:00.480
Lead andindrolites to freedom.

735
00:36:00.719 --> 00:36:02.639
Had to go to Moses, had to go to the enemy,

736
00:36:02.679 --> 00:36:04.079
had to go to. The principal, had to go to,

737
00:36:04.119 --> 00:36:05.079
the president, had to go to.

738
00:36:05.119 --> 00:36:07.960
The governor, had to go through the adversary, had to

739
00:36:07.960 --> 00:36:10.519
go to his enemies, and any times and say, my

740
00:36:10.800 --> 00:36:14.519
God said let my people go. Wouldn't want to study

741
00:36:14.519 --> 00:36:14.880
about it?

742
00:36:16.960 --> 00:36:18.760
People he brought to people? Then they still you know

743
00:36:18.760 --> 00:36:21.960
they're acting up because Efty Lash. They had the all

744
00:36:22.039 --> 00:36:24.000
guys and they said, let's go back to Egypt. At

745
00:36:24.079 --> 00:36:28.719
least we could eat you dirt, you probably our animal

746
00:36:28.760 --> 00:36:30.599
parts and stuff, all kinds of stuff.

747
00:36:30.639 --> 00:36:34.360
You want to go back to that and be in bondage? Okay?

748
00:36:34.840 --> 00:36:36.960
And to me, if you don't study.

749
00:36:36.599 --> 00:36:40.079
His word, you're in bondage because you don't know your freedom.

750
00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:43.360
You don't know what's waiting on you by.

751
00:36:43.360 --> 00:36:46.320
Right, if God, if God leads you out of it.

752
00:36:46.559 --> 00:36:48.280
If God leads you out of it, you don't need

753
00:36:48.320 --> 00:36:50.360
to return to it because he sees.

754
00:36:51.119 --> 00:36:53.440
Where you go. You know what's it gonna do for you?

755
00:36:54.079 --> 00:36:56.000
Lit's see how it looks. I'm looking at you. How

756
00:36:56.280 --> 00:36:57.360
how does that work for you?

757
00:36:57.760 --> 00:37:01.280
That's a that's a true saying, Oh, where where's that

758
00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:02.400
got you?

759
00:37:02.000 --> 00:37:04.840
But if you look at it. To Lisa, you are

760
00:37:05.480 --> 00:37:06.239
social worker.

761
00:37:06.800 --> 00:37:12.559
People would rather stay miserable in their comfort with their

762
00:37:12.679 --> 00:37:19.920
known to or what they're familiar to, trust going somewhere else,

763
00:37:20.119 --> 00:37:23.719
you know, working with with victims of the mess of violence,

764
00:37:24.320 --> 00:37:26.679
the fear of the unknown. Well, I know what I

765
00:37:26.679 --> 00:37:29.280
got one right here, but if I leave, you know,

766
00:37:29.400 --> 00:37:31.880
how can I make sure that I make sure, you know,

767
00:37:31.920 --> 00:37:34.559
make sure that I eat, my children eat, or.

768
00:37:34.920 --> 00:37:35.840
Where we're going to live.

769
00:37:35.880 --> 00:37:38.559
It's the fear of the unknown, and people tend to

770
00:37:38.599 --> 00:37:42.079
gravitate or stay within the familiar, not wanting to take

771
00:37:42.079 --> 00:37:42.519
a chance.

772
00:37:42.559 --> 00:37:45.199
But you know, in this walk, you know, I've learned to.

773
00:37:46.039 --> 00:37:50.280
Have to do something different and and it's in this's

774
00:37:50.360 --> 00:37:54.280
and it's proven great so far from me, So I

775
00:37:54.320 --> 00:37:55.280
have no complaints.

776
00:37:55.280 --> 00:37:58.800
It's not an easy walk, but he's definitely.

777
00:37:58.360 --> 00:38:01.400
Shown me and introduce me to some things that I

778
00:38:01.519 --> 00:38:05.159
probably wouldn't have known or experienced. How I stayed in

779
00:38:05.239 --> 00:38:08.000
it like and like I do a disclaimer. You know,

780
00:38:08.000 --> 00:38:11.840
I always believed in God, always understood you know that.

781
00:38:12.039 --> 00:38:15.880
But it's just I think doing things my way instead

782
00:38:15.880 --> 00:38:18.559
of trusting what He has for me. And sometimes he'll

783
00:38:19.000 --> 00:38:21.400
allow things to happen. So, okay, you ready to listen.

784
00:38:21.440 --> 00:38:24.800
Now do I have your attention? You know, Let let

785
00:38:24.960 --> 00:38:28.320
let's get moving. You're there, Let's see where we can

786
00:38:28.440 --> 00:38:29.920
move you from.

787
00:38:29.960 --> 00:38:34.440
So you have to trust. That's the process Lee was leaning,

788
00:38:34.440 --> 00:38:35.800
not onto your own understanding.

789
00:38:35.880 --> 00:38:37.159
All you have to do is look at it.

790
00:38:37.599 --> 00:38:40.880
When you say, I remember I used to get loans

791
00:38:40.920 --> 00:38:43.960
from pay day loan places and stuff. And I walked

792
00:38:43.960 --> 00:38:46.519
in that one day and I stood at the door

793
00:38:46.599 --> 00:38:48.159
and there was no other customer in there, and the

794
00:38:48.239 --> 00:38:50.079
young already had favor with the people.

795
00:38:50.119 --> 00:38:52.880
They Normally, if you're launch, you know, self employed, you.

796
00:38:52.880 --> 00:38:54.519
Have to wait a few days after you paid the

797
00:38:54.639 --> 00:38:57.519
one loan off and then come back. And I was

798
00:38:57.639 --> 00:38:59.920
just standing there and I said, I can't do that,

799
00:39:00.800 --> 00:39:02.840
and serve you, I can't do this.

800
00:39:03.480 --> 00:39:05.880
I'm asking you to help me. Things feel intense, but

801
00:39:05.920 --> 00:39:06.400
I think in.

802
00:39:06.400 --> 00:39:08.679
A good way they do, And you're right, it is

803
00:39:08.760 --> 00:39:12.440
intense because, like Trey said, it's the unknown. We don't

804
00:39:12.440 --> 00:39:15.199
know what tomorrow is gonna bring. We just know it's Tuesday.

805
00:39:15.239 --> 00:39:20.119
On Tuesdays, it's Taco Tuesday at Tijuana Flats. That's all

806
00:39:20.159 --> 00:39:23.400
I know. Taco Tuesday at Tijuana Flats. That's all I

807
00:39:23.440 --> 00:39:26.159
know about a Tuesday. And I know what shows should

808
00:39:26.159 --> 00:39:27.519
be coming on tomorrow evening.

809
00:39:27.719 --> 00:39:30.239
That's all I know. I don't know anything else. But

810
00:39:30.320 --> 00:39:34.199
I'm just I stood there and I was like, I

811
00:39:34.239 --> 00:39:35.079
can't and the young.

812
00:39:35.000 --> 00:39:37.840
Ladies like, hey, how you doing, And she's like, what

813
00:39:37.840 --> 00:39:40.960
what's wrong? And I was talking really to myself, but

814
00:39:41.000 --> 00:39:42.760
I was talking to the heavens, and I'm like, I'm

815
00:39:42.760 --> 00:39:43.519
so sorry.

816
00:39:43.719 --> 00:39:46.679
I can't do this and serve you. I can't. I can't.

817
00:39:46.719 --> 00:39:48.440
I don't know what you you have for me to do,

818
00:39:48.480 --> 00:39:52.119
but I can't be the example if I keep coming here.

819
00:39:52.679 --> 00:39:56.639
I've got to trust you. My paychecks are not they

820
00:39:56.679 --> 00:39:58.800
don't know, they don't do the job, they don't pay

821
00:39:58.800 --> 00:40:01.199
other I gotta try trust you. And young I said, no,

822
00:40:01.199 --> 00:40:03.360
don't worry, Aboudy, come back tomorrow. I'll be here tomorrow.

823
00:40:03.480 --> 00:40:05.360
I'll get you your new loan tomorrow. I said no,

824
00:40:05.840 --> 00:40:08.920
I paid my debt. I said, I can't come back,

825
00:40:09.320 --> 00:40:12.000
but I thank you. I thank you for your respect.

826
00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:14.159
I thank you for that. You know you're looking out

827
00:40:14.199 --> 00:40:16.440
for me, but I need him looking out for me

828
00:40:16.599 --> 00:40:19.079
one hundred percent. And that means you can't be in

829
00:40:19.079 --> 00:40:22.199
my life. I can't depend on you. I can't depend

830
00:40:22.239 --> 00:40:26.119
on this organization, this company. But thank you. And I

831
00:40:26.159 --> 00:40:29.320
never went back. I never went to the pawnshop again.

832
00:40:29.679 --> 00:40:32.519
I didn't go to Amscott get a payday loan.

833
00:40:32.559 --> 00:40:32.920
I didn't.

834
00:40:33.519 --> 00:40:36.119
I didn't get another job either. All of a sudden,

835
00:40:36.159 --> 00:40:39.800
other opportunities doors opened up that I did not know.

836
00:40:39.840 --> 00:40:43.840
We're even there I trusted God, and then yes, it's

837
00:40:43.960 --> 00:40:47.440
uncomfortable in your flesh because your brain wants to have

838
00:40:47.679 --> 00:40:48.599
all the sense.

839
00:40:49.079 --> 00:40:52.239
Your brain wants to direct you. Your flesh wants you

840
00:40:52.280 --> 00:40:54.840
to be achy in pain and everything. So you could

841
00:40:54.880 --> 00:40:58.039
go and count, you know, count on this and kind

842
00:40:58.039 --> 00:40:58.639
of on drinking.

843
00:40:58.679 --> 00:41:01.960
I mean, I've seen more people getting two or three

844
00:41:01.960 --> 00:41:05.800
bottles of wine at publics, and this is in the

845
00:41:05.840 --> 00:41:08.039
middle of the week, so I know you not. You

846
00:41:08.079 --> 00:41:11.119
can't be having a party two or three bottles of liquor.

847
00:41:11.239 --> 00:41:13.960
I'm like, what. But at the end of the hour,

848
00:41:14.039 --> 00:41:14.840
you come down.

849
00:41:14.679 --> 00:41:18.519
Off your high and your problems are still there. You

850
00:41:18.599 --> 00:41:22.000
rob Peter to pay Paul, but the problem is still there.

851
00:41:22.639 --> 00:41:25.400
Try God, trust him. He tell you in the word

852
00:41:26.039 --> 00:41:29.639
try me and see old taste and see that the

853
00:41:29.760 --> 00:41:31.960
Lord is good. But you gotta try him.

854
00:41:32.000 --> 00:41:34.840
It's not my story. You can't ride off a trade story.

855
00:41:35.000 --> 00:41:37.119
You can't ride off a miss cage testimony.

856
00:41:37.360 --> 00:41:40.440
You got to have your own. And I promise you

857
00:41:41.119 --> 00:41:44.199
it's a hard step. But once you start, and it's small,

858
00:41:44.280 --> 00:41:45.000
it's small.

859
00:41:44.760 --> 00:41:47.800
And not no big leaps, not no jumping high and

860
00:41:47.840 --> 00:41:48.079
all this.

861
00:41:48.360 --> 00:41:51.599
It's just small steps and it's hard to let go.

862
00:41:51.719 --> 00:41:54.920
It's hard to trust, I get it, but to trust

863
00:41:55.199 --> 00:41:58.960
that which you cannot see. But you can feel him.

864
00:41:59.360 --> 00:42:01.960
You can tell when he's in the room. You know

865
00:42:02.199 --> 00:42:05.519
when you're not alone, when you're crying the darkest of

866
00:42:05.679 --> 00:42:07.280
nights because you don't.

867
00:42:07.159 --> 00:42:12.119
Know what's gonna happen. Foreclosure is on the horizon. You

868
00:42:12.239 --> 00:42:15.599
got you don't get paid until Friday, and even then

869
00:42:15.760 --> 00:42:18.079
that got to go to the rent. But you got

870
00:42:18.079 --> 00:42:24.119
three bills due between today and right. Trusted, trusted. Now

871
00:42:24.159 --> 00:42:26.920
it's not for everybody. Let me, let me get that straight.

872
00:42:26.960 --> 00:42:29.239
Because Trey and I know there are two types of

873
00:42:29.239 --> 00:42:32.360
homeless people. Before all this other, before twenty twenty, there

874
00:42:32.400 --> 00:42:33.199
were two types of.

875
00:42:33.119 --> 00:42:35.719
Homeless people, those who couldn't help it and those who

876
00:42:35.719 --> 00:42:37.360
didn't care. Those who didn't care.

877
00:42:37.519 --> 00:42:39.760
You don't get my energy. You don't get you know,

878
00:42:39.800 --> 00:42:43.079
the resources. You can recite them backwards. You don't need me.

879
00:42:43.199 --> 00:42:45.920
You just coming in for comfort. You do an infringement

880
00:42:45.920 --> 00:42:48.039
so you could get arrested, so you could at least

881
00:42:48.079 --> 00:42:50.440
be on a cot and get a peanut butter sandwich

882
00:42:50.519 --> 00:42:51.440
or a ballooney.

883
00:42:51.079 --> 00:42:55.519
Sandwich, hot cut. Yes, thank you, that's what you depend on.

884
00:42:55.559 --> 00:42:57.760
So no, I'm gonna put my energy into those folks.

885
00:42:57.800 --> 00:43:00.639
And look, at the time all want to close out

886
00:43:00.679 --> 00:43:03.119
with anything before we head out, I'll just.

887
00:43:03.079 --> 00:43:07.840
Say I'll just say, you know, backing up what you

888
00:43:07.840 --> 00:43:08.440
guys were saying.

889
00:43:08.440 --> 00:43:09.719
I mean, that's what faith looks like.

890
00:43:09.760 --> 00:43:11.400
If you really want to know what faith look like,

891
00:43:12.159 --> 00:43:15.880
just read Hebrews eleven and that just tells you multiple

892
00:43:15.880 --> 00:43:19.280
stories of people just actually relying on God and trusting

893
00:43:19.360 --> 00:43:22.239
him and believing his word when he told him, you know,

894
00:43:22.280 --> 00:43:24.400
when they experienced him and stuff like that, and just

895
00:43:24.480 --> 00:43:28.280
hearing testimonials period. You should want to let go and

896
00:43:28.360 --> 00:43:30.280
let God do what he needs to do in those

897
00:43:30.280 --> 00:43:32.000
situations that just rely on him.

898
00:43:32.400 --> 00:43:33.719
It may be hard, you may want to.

899
00:43:33.679 --> 00:43:36.400
Control it, but ask God forgiveness when you're about to

900
00:43:36.480 --> 00:43:39.639
try to control anything. Allow him to do his work.

901
00:43:39.679 --> 00:43:41.159
I mean, he tells us in the Bible. You just

902
00:43:41.199 --> 00:43:43.519
got to read it for yourself to know. He does

903
00:43:43.760 --> 00:43:48.360
multiple stories most like, lots of proof. What more can

904
00:43:48.360 --> 00:43:48.840
we say?

905
00:43:49.119 --> 00:43:54.199
But yeah, and then miss Kay, well, guys, we're gonna

906
00:43:54.199 --> 00:43:56.360
see you next week. We're gonna talk some more. I

907
00:43:56.440 --> 00:43:58.480
will come back and finish up with coming, you know,

908
00:43:58.519 --> 00:44:02.719
talking about a few of the holidays but do your homework,

909
00:44:03.079 --> 00:44:06.159
get your prayer points, get scripture at least three.

910
