1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.120
And good morning everyone, welcome, welcome to the Prosper Power Hour.

2
00:00:07.120 --> 00:00:12.680
This is where we are every Wednesday, 8 a.m. Pacific Standard Time.

3
00:00:12.680 --> 00:00:20.920
This is our time to tap into the promises of God, the principles found in scripture

4
00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:26.440
for life and business, and to just come together and pray.

5
00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:32.240
It's part of the Prosper Leader membership, Wednesdays focusing on the heaven side of

6
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:40.040
things, and Thursday, of course, is office hours at 9 a.m. PST, part of the Prosper Leader

7
00:00:40.040 --> 00:00:41.040
membership.

8
00:00:41.040 --> 00:00:46.440
So we always like to start this, and a lot of times it's before I start recording, but

9
00:00:46.440 --> 00:00:55.520
we like listening to the praise reports and what God's been doing to just celebrate and

10
00:00:55.520 --> 00:01:00.280
walk in Thanksgiving, and also to pray.

11
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:08.240
And so we prayed last week for Amanda, and so she was just giving a praise report from

12
00:01:08.240 --> 00:01:14.360
the oncologist, which is really, really exciting, the white blood cells being lower.

13
00:01:14.360 --> 00:01:22.360
And we were talking about the doctor's report, and I felt led to just share a little principle

14
00:01:22.360 --> 00:01:27.720
before we jump into the main part of today's Bible study, but it really made me think,

15
00:01:27.720 --> 00:01:30.120
because words are so powerful.

16
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:38.440
The power of life and death is in the tongue, and especially when they come from an authority.

17
00:01:38.440 --> 00:01:43.960
So when we hear something from a teacher, a pastor, a doctor, someone we consider an

18
00:01:43.960 --> 00:01:50.920
authority, it carries a lot of weight in our spirit, and we have to really guard.

19
00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:56.720
We have to guard what we allow in our spirit, because the doctors have their understanding

20
00:01:56.720 --> 00:02:02.720
and they're seeing it from their perspective, but there's a higher order, which is the Lord

21
00:02:02.720 --> 00:02:04.560
God, right?

22
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:12.640
And so we have to remember that, and I've never forgotten a couple of times that I was

23
00:02:12.640 --> 00:02:14.680
so reminded of that.

24
00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:20.600
One was just a mighty, mighty man of God that I met in Missouri when I was speaking in Missouri

25
00:02:20.920 --> 00:02:25.080
and he'd been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis.

26
00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:35.400
And anyway, he was a painter by trade, and I'll never forget him telling the story that

27
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:41.320
when he went in the doctor's office, this is a well-meaning doctor that cares, but these words,

28
00:02:42.760 --> 00:02:49.960
and so the doctor pointed at a wheelchair and said, look, this is where you're heading.

29
00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:52.360
You need to prepare.

30
00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:55.800
You need to put down your paintbrush, and you need to start getting your house ready,

31
00:02:55.800 --> 00:02:56.440
and so on.

32
00:02:56.440 --> 00:02:57.880
This is where you're heading.

33
00:02:58.600 --> 00:03:05.560
Like, that's so intense to get a visual and a word like that, but I'll never forget his

34
00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:06.200
response.

35
00:03:06.200 --> 00:03:07.560
He was a mighty man of God.

36
00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:08.920
It stuck with me.

37
00:03:08.920 --> 00:03:15.960
He walked outside and he said, Lord, I've heard the doctor's report.

38
00:03:16.600 --> 00:03:17.560
What do you say?

39
00:03:18.120 --> 00:03:20.920
And this is something God's been speaking to me about.

40
00:03:20.920 --> 00:03:24.520
You know, the truth will set you free, right?

41
00:03:24.520 --> 00:03:29.640
And so what's the truth about this, Lord, right?

42
00:03:30.200 --> 00:03:35.240
And especially you go, like, what we're doing, this is why we do the promises of God.

43
00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:37.880
What does scripture say about this, right?

44
00:03:37.880 --> 00:03:41.160
But your stripes, you know, I have been healed, right?

45
00:03:41.160 --> 00:03:47.480
He bore our sicknesses, you know, all of that, you know, song and dance.

46
00:03:47.480 --> 00:03:54.200
Psalms 91, who heals all your diseases, you know, and all the gospels, Jesus healed them

47
00:03:54.200 --> 00:03:54.920
all.

48
00:03:54.920 --> 00:04:03.320
So the Lord spoke to him and said, you're going to be meeting someone who has an answer

49
00:04:03.320 --> 00:04:06.760
that I'm going to use for your healing.

50
00:04:07.880 --> 00:04:11.800
That someone happened to be my husband, and that's how I know this story.

51
00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:17.640
We were founders of a nutrition company at that time, and our product completely, our

52
00:04:17.640 --> 00:04:20.839
immune system product at that time completely changed his life.

53
00:04:21.560 --> 00:04:25.320
And so there's so many stories like that, right?

54
00:04:25.320 --> 00:04:31.240
And what we've been hearing with Christie and just believing that she's going to be

55
00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:32.680
completely cancer free.

56
00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:39.720
And she too right now has arrived at that space and saying, Lord, this will be a testimony

57
00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:40.520
to millions.

58
00:04:41.160 --> 00:04:48.120
And so I started to tell you when I was pregnant with my son, I had gotten chickenpox while

59
00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:51.240
I was pregnant and in the first trimester.

60
00:04:51.960 --> 00:04:58.680
And medically speaking, the doctor began to inform me that there's 50% chance of me dying

61
00:04:58.680 --> 00:04:59.880
in childbirth.

62
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:07.920
and that the child would probably be born extremely deformed, brain outside the head,

63
00:05:07.920 --> 00:05:14.640
or no limbs. He just really brought me a stack of papers. He turned white as a ghost. I tell this

64
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:23.200
story in my book, Total Soul Prosperity. There's so many miracles in there. And so,

65
00:05:23.840 --> 00:05:30.960
um, you know, he just, he said, most women in your condition would choose to terminate

66
00:05:30.960 --> 00:05:38.000
the pregnancy. So those are some heavy words coming at you, right? And, um,

67
00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:47.440
my spirit just rose up. My spirit rose up. And I said, um, no, God knew this baby before,

68
00:05:47.440 --> 00:05:57.200
before it was in my womb. And I said, um, either he will be completely healed or God will give me

69
00:05:57.200 --> 00:06:05.280
the grace, but no, that's, that's not happening. And, um, but those, those words, it's the ability

70
00:06:05.280 --> 00:06:12.400
to have the ability to filter when stuff comes at us. And I don't care if it's the news or the

71
00:06:12.400 --> 00:06:18.640
pastors or whatever, a prophet, like you have to filter them and say, that's not my reality.

72
00:06:18.640 --> 00:06:24.400
That's not what the word says. That's not my, my truth. Right. So I'm so glad that you did that.

73
00:06:24.400 --> 00:06:31.120
I'm celebrating with you on that, Amanda, because, um, that's what God, that's what it means

74
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:36.080
scripturally to walk by faith and not by sight. Right. That's, that's literally what it means.

75
00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:41.840
We're not Bible says judge, not by appearances. We're not, we're not judging by the way. Good

76
00:06:41.840 --> 00:06:47.840
morning, Natalie. I didn't say good morning to you yet either. And, um, and good morning, Kim.

77
00:06:47.840 --> 00:06:52.400
I didn't say, yeah, I didn't say good morning to you too. I saw you in the waiting room there.

78
00:06:52.400 --> 00:07:00.240
So yes, praise report for Amanda. We're celebrating and we continue to pray, um, any updates on the

79
00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:05.280
house or anything we need to be, uh, praying or, or, or praising in relationship to that.

80
00:07:06.320 --> 00:07:12.400
Um, just still keep on praying that we find, um, a buyer. Okay. We've had a lot of house showings.

81
00:07:13.760 --> 00:07:20.080
So we're just hoping that, you know, um, it just is the right person, the right song or whatever

82
00:07:20.080 --> 00:07:25.360
it is. So we're just praying, you know, you got it. You got it. So glad you're here. And so glad

83
00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:30.720
you're sharing that. So yes. Okay. So you guys were all documenting these and writing these down

84
00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:38.000
and praying all week and touching and agreeing. That's the power of, of this. So any other praise

85
00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:46.800
reports, um, prayer requests? Yes. Jackie. So continue to pray for my sister. Um, so my sister,

86
00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:50.880
I never really showed, shared the whole thing. What was been going on with her. She's been living

87
00:07:50.880 --> 00:07:58.320
with a couple for three years and I'm just going to say it. They practice a lot of witchcraft.

88
00:07:58.320 --> 00:08:05.200
Yeah. And so, um, I know the Lord has been protecting my sister. And so, um, the lady

89
00:08:05.200 --> 00:08:11.440
that she lives with, she's been going through her own issues. Um, my sister works nights.

90
00:08:12.400 --> 00:08:20.000
She got home to her, to her room and the lady is kicking her out, um, at the end of May. Um,

91
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.880
so I believe it's God's plan because all of a sudden, since we've been praying for her,

92
00:08:24.880 --> 00:08:30.880
you know, for an apartment for her, since that happened, um, now things are starting to come

93
00:08:30.880 --> 00:08:37.760
in for rental places for her. And so she has a couple to look at, um, I believe maybe one tomorrow

94
00:08:37.760 --> 00:08:45.520
and the next one on May 4th. Fabulous. Um, she's in a little bit of distraught. I am pretty much

95
00:08:45.520 --> 00:08:52.320
peaceful as I could be. And I'm just continuing to encourage her and just throw out words from

96
00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:57.920
him that comfort her at this time in prayer. You know what, what, um, the promise for today is

97
00:08:57.920 --> 00:09:03.760
going to be very relevant. And if she's open, you might want to share the prayer from today

98
00:09:03.760 --> 00:09:09.360
and the promise that we're doing today. I think it's going to be really relevant for that. So

99
00:09:09.360 --> 00:09:12.800
awesome. So we'll continue to pray for your sister. Remind me her name.

100
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:22.240
Uh, Sunny. Okay. S-U-N-N-I. S-U-N-N-I. Okay. We'll continue to pray for Sunny. Anyone else, um,

101
00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:26.720
praise reports, uh, prayer requests? Kim, did you just raise your hand? Yeah.

102
00:09:27.760 --> 00:09:35.120
Hey, ladies. Sorry. I, my, um, the prayer requests, it's for my daughter, um, and my sister,

103
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:42.160
actually, um, my sister, uh, fell the other day. She had injured her hip, I think, moving her

104
00:09:42.160 --> 00:09:49.440
canopy because of the crazy storms we've been having. Right. And, uh, so she had kind of,

105
00:09:49.440 --> 00:09:56.240
you know, pulled something in her back and she ended up falling, um, Sunday. And she said that,

106
00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:59.760
um, I know she was going to get a CT scan, her name.

107
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:07.520
Cheyenne. Okay. And she's just had a lot of health issues. She's, I think, dealing with like bulimia.

108
00:10:07.520 --> 00:10:14.000
She ended up, she had weighed and then she, I think, ended up, I mean, like she's really thin

109
00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:23.040
and having CT scans. She had a biopsy on her breast yesterday and then falls. Oh, you know,

110
00:10:23.920 --> 00:10:30.960
she had the CT scan before the fall. No, she was having the biopsy yesterday. And then

111
00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:37.040
I told her to go into ER. She said her knee, because she fell on her kneecap and she said

112
00:10:37.040 --> 00:10:43.200
it was just really swollen. You need to get that looked at right away because she was in a lot of

113
00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:49.360
pain. So then I was on the phone with my daughter. That's why it's like getting on, like muted

114
00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:57.280
myself. My daughter called me and she was in Gridley, which is like an hour plus, hour and a

115
00:10:57.280 --> 00:11:03.840
half from Sacramento. And her doctor, she's having a lot of back issues. She has a cracked

116
00:11:05.920 --> 00:11:13.040
vertebrae that they found out just a couple of weeks ago and a herniated two disc back to back.

117
00:11:13.920 --> 00:11:21.360
And she's having tingling and numbness in her left side. So she's pretty young. So they,

118
00:11:22.400 --> 00:11:29.520
her and my granddaughter, she took my granddaughter with her on their way to Kaiser and Roosevelt. So,

119
00:11:29.520 --> 00:11:36.080
and you know, there's really bad storms right now. So, I mean, she's a total believer. I was

120
00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:42.320
telling her what you're talking about in Amanda's report that whatever the report says is null and

121
00:11:42.320 --> 00:11:49.200
void. We don't, we don't go into agreement with that. And then I think the praise report is I've

122
00:11:49.200 --> 00:11:57.680
been having some really great success with I think just feeling better with the vertigo and everything.

123
00:12:00.800 --> 00:12:04.640
I had to give up my business trip to Phoenix last week. I was,

124
00:12:05.920 --> 00:12:10.320
that's the first time I was like the whole FOMO thing, but God just showed me an inner

125
00:12:10.320 --> 00:12:16.880
peace about that. So, and that he's bringing me into a new, brand new season, not a renewal,

126
00:12:16.880 --> 00:12:23.200
not a relinquishing, a new balance, a new season in which I've never been before.

127
00:12:23.840 --> 00:12:31.120
So I just feel his presence, being obedient to that. It's almost something was broke off. Does

128
00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:38.320
that make sense? Normally I would be in, you know, I had new team members that never met me before

129
00:12:38.320 --> 00:12:43.520
that I was supposed to meet in Phoenix and all the things that would normally just take me

130
00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:53.360
up a notch or two. Right. And and, you know, I just felt like, even though like something was

131
00:12:53.360 --> 00:13:00.160
broke off, I had this massage and I felt horrible and then something was broke off of me. I can't

132
00:13:00.160 --> 00:13:07.120
even explain it. It's just being obedient to going, okay, I just let go of this. I surrender.

133
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:14.880
I surrender. I love that Kim. That's all good praises. Oh, I love that. As long as I've known

134
00:13:14.880 --> 00:13:22.800
you, I see, I want to confirm that I see and I feel the change in you. I see it. And so I'm

135
00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:29.600
super, super, super excited about that. Sometimes he gives us things, right? Amanda,

136
00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:33.520
sometimes we're given, we all know that he gives us things that not necessarily

137
00:13:34.480 --> 00:13:42.480
are something we would ever want upon as desire so that we can let go of that and

138
00:13:43.360 --> 00:13:49.600
surrender it totally to him. And I think that's the place he had me in for so many layers of

139
00:13:49.600 --> 00:13:54.080
decades of just get, get, get, get, get, get, get, get, you know, high, you know,

140
00:13:54.720 --> 00:14:01.520
management and caretaking and all that. And he's like, yeah, no more. That's not my best for you.

141
00:14:01.520 --> 00:14:06.480
And your new version is right here, right now, but you have to let go of it all.

142
00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:14.720
So I love it. You know, you're, you're talking something so core and so important, Kim,

143
00:14:14.720 --> 00:14:24.080
thank you for bringing that up. Um, what you're really talking about is identity and, um, we can

144
00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:36.960
try to change external things, but until we see our identity correctly, the change doesn't happen.

145
00:14:36.960 --> 00:14:45.840
So when we actually see ourselves as those things, as the daughter of the most high God, as healed,

146
00:14:45.840 --> 00:14:53.200
as walking, as successful, as prosperous, that actually it's, it's, it's who we are,

147
00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:59.840
not something we're trying to seek and chase after. And so you move from this external Kim.

148
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:07.400
I need to get, I need to change, I need to go after, I need to work hard, I need to strive, I need to press.

149
00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:11.280
You're stepping into I am.

150
00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:18.200
I am the daughter of the Most High God. I am already prosperous. I am healed. I am whole and

151
00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:25.560
we can then go forward and actually serve in such a higher level when we go forward

152
00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:33.240
whole. I'm already whole in you. If I have God in me, I have everything in me. If I'm the temple

153
00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:41.640
of the Holy Spirit, if it's Christ in me, I have all. The maker of heaven and earth, I have the

154
00:15:41.640 --> 00:15:49.160
mind of Christ, right? So when I'm coming from that place of fullness, and this is lining up

155
00:15:49.160 --> 00:15:55.880
for exactly what we're going to talk about today and today's promise. So this, you guys just having

156
00:15:55.880 --> 00:16:01.160
this in advance and I, for those of you listening, I don't normally record this part. This is, we do

157
00:16:01.160 --> 00:16:08.600
this and then I start the recording, but I think it's divine that everybody needs to hear this part

158
00:16:08.600 --> 00:16:14.520
of why we're even doing this and why these promises matter and why these prayers and the

159
00:16:14.600 --> 00:16:17.080
victory that's possible for us, right?

160
00:16:17.800 --> 00:16:24.040
Brenda, can I say something real quick? Because I feel like, you know, like he has given me a new

161
00:16:24.040 --> 00:16:31.960
testimony. You know what my coaching is. So I coach on this. I coach in women's self-identity

162
00:16:32.760 --> 00:16:37.960
healing. It's part of my coaching practice, but for the longest time I put it to the side,

163
00:16:38.840 --> 00:16:45.000
you know, in life too. Life has come to me, right? In different ways. So I've had to say

164
00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:53.080
no to things, but I realized that this new creation, this, it is a testimony for me

165
00:16:53.800 --> 00:17:03.560
so that I can break off the imposter syndrome that I have had weighing on me since

166
00:17:03.560 --> 00:17:08.520
because I'm like, well, how can I teach this? I can teach this all day long and help others,

167
00:17:08.520 --> 00:17:13.079
but I'm not doing it myself. Does that make sense? So good. I'm just like,

168
00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:20.520
I have to share that because that song, I'm a living testimony and I think about that and I'm

169
00:17:20.520 --> 00:17:28.520
like, oh my gosh, you're breaking off layers and decades of me thinking that I'm an imposter and

170
00:17:28.520 --> 00:17:35.880
cannot do or not equipped correctly because of these things. And that's such a false,

171
00:17:35.880 --> 00:17:42.600
it's such a lie. It's my testimony to bring more in. I love that. God blesses someone.

172
00:17:42.600 --> 00:17:48.840
I thank you for sharing that and your courage to be honest about that because

173
00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:56.280
imposter syndrome is something that keeps so many women from fully showing up.

174
00:17:56.840 --> 00:18:03.400
And so, and that's the reason, another reason why we're gathering like this every Wednesday,

175
00:18:03.400 --> 00:18:08.600
because the truth will set you free. And the more, you know, the promises of God, the more

176
00:18:08.600 --> 00:18:16.360
you're stepping into to this, the more those things just fall off of you. And so Kim, I don't

177
00:18:16.360 --> 00:18:20.520
have the exact Psalm. I'll look it up for you, but I'm going to tell you the words of it. You

178
00:18:20.520 --> 00:18:26.120
may know which Psalm or some of you may already know which Psalm this is, but there's a Psalm

179
00:18:26.120 --> 00:18:34.600
where David says, he pulled me out of the mud and mire, like the muck. He pulled me out of the muck

180
00:18:34.680 --> 00:18:45.400
and he set my foot on a solid rock and he put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise,

181
00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:51.720
and many will see and wonder. Okay. I'm giving you the, my closest version paraphrase, depending

182
00:18:51.720 --> 00:18:59.320
what translation you read it in. But that Psalm is what you just spoke. He has pulled you out of

183
00:18:59.320 --> 00:19:06.440
the muck and mire of self-doubt and imposter syndrome and striving and all that stuff is

184
00:19:06.440 --> 00:19:12.440
muck and mire. And he's put your foot on a solid rock. You're standing on different ground now.

185
00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:17.800
And he's put a new song in your mouth and it's a song of praise to God. And in that process,

186
00:19:17.800 --> 00:19:23.240
like you said, many will see and wonder. So thank you for, for sharing that. I think it's really

187
00:19:23.320 --> 00:19:32.760
important. Your testimony is powerful. Love it. Okay. Anyone else have praise or prayer

188
00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:42.840
before we actually go into the lesson? For me, my surgery is on Monday for my hand.

189
00:19:42.840 --> 00:19:49.000
Okay. So I would appreciate everyone praying for them to totally correct it for me to get

190
00:19:49.000 --> 00:19:59.880
full mobility of my wrist. And then another thing that happened in the last week, twice,

191
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.400
the Holy Spirit came through when I was speaking with people.

192
00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:05.200
Wow.

193
00:20:05.200 --> 00:20:12.400
And one of them was last Saturday, we met some people that my husband met at work,

194
00:20:13.520 --> 00:20:20.960
and we ended up at their house for three and a half hours. And he was, it was basically

195
00:20:20.960 --> 00:20:29.920
a very advanced conversation about how the government and the world is not like people

196
00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:37.520
think it should be. And so it was like peeling onion skins of getting to the truth.

197
00:20:38.480 --> 00:20:47.040
And during the conversation, all of a sudden the Holy Spirit came over me and I said to the guy,

198
00:20:48.000 --> 00:20:54.800
you know, I appreciate everything that you're teaching. And I know tidbits of a lot of what

199
00:20:54.800 --> 00:21:02.720
he was talking about, but he went into depth. And what came through was that no matter

200
00:21:03.600 --> 00:21:11.200
what you're studying, the history and everything, you need to still every day, at least spend an

201
00:21:11.280 --> 00:21:20.800
hour into the Bible, because as you're studying the Bible, I call it like Excel. If anybody here

202
00:21:20.800 --> 00:21:28.800
has studied Microsoft Excel, how when you get into advanced, it's like going into hidden libraries

203
00:21:29.440 --> 00:21:34.800
in it. And the Bible becomes like that. And what I shared with them is,

204
00:21:35.760 --> 00:21:44.960
although you're spending all this time into this, when we have our day where we're called home by

205
00:21:44.960 --> 00:21:53.760
the Father, I believe our wisdom goes with us. And I told him, I says, you need to really be

206
00:21:53.760 --> 00:22:02.160
focusing on your spiritual senses, because one, what you're studying is going to become clearer

207
00:22:02.560 --> 00:22:10.640
when you filter it with God's eyes, God's hearing and everything. And it was just so amazing that

208
00:22:10.640 --> 00:22:16.800
even when I was done, it was like, all those words came out of me. That wasn't me.

209
00:22:16.800 --> 00:22:20.240
I love that. The Lord just spoke right through you.

210
00:22:20.240 --> 00:22:25.920
Yeah. And I didn't tell him it was the Holy Spirit, but the thing is, is it's like,

211
00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:31.520
little old me couldn't have said it all, so it was really cool.

212
00:22:31.520 --> 00:22:38.080
I love that. Thank you for sharing that. So we're praying for your wrist is Monday,

213
00:22:38.080 --> 00:22:46.560
and we're praising God that scripture actually says that at any moment, at any time,

214
00:22:46.560 --> 00:22:54.080
that God gives us the words to say. And that's always my prayer, speak through me,

215
00:22:54.080 --> 00:22:59.840
love through me, coach through me. If we have the mind of Christ and the Holy Spirit living in us,

216
00:22:59.840 --> 00:23:05.040
and the power of life and death in our tongue, then yes, yes, yes, yes. So I love,

217
00:23:05.040 --> 00:23:11.440
and you've always been such a beautiful, you've been so beautiful in my life all these years,

218
00:23:12.240 --> 00:23:18.400
and wisdom does flow from you, and just your peaceful way of sharing the love of God.

219
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:24.960
And so that man is blessed that you were there, and you were willing to open your mouth,

220
00:23:24.960 --> 00:23:32.080
and the Lord spoke through you. So I'm so excited. Okay, I know we're going to run out of

221
00:23:32.080 --> 00:23:36.240
time. Let's keep going real quick. Any other praise reports or prayer requests that I'm going

222
00:23:36.240 --> 00:23:42.560
to get us started, get into our promise? Remember, every week we do a promise, we do a principle,

223
00:23:42.560 --> 00:23:50.640
we pray, and then we do a practice that we can do for the week. So anything else that I need to have

224
00:23:50.640 --> 00:23:58.000
listed for us to be praying? Don't want to miss anybody. Everybody matters here.

225
00:24:00.080 --> 00:24:07.360
Okay, if not, let's get started then. So today's promise, there's two scriptures,

226
00:24:08.080 --> 00:24:14.000
and we're going to look at them from a different perspective, I think. And so

227
00:24:14.880 --> 00:24:25.200
one of the things as we open the word is to have a beginner's mind, right? I think the Asian

228
00:24:25.200 --> 00:24:35.760
philosophy is an empty rice bowl, right? Have come empty to receive, right? Because the brain's

229
00:24:35.760 --> 00:24:42.880
natural bent, the brain studies for patterns, and the brain goes, attaches it to something else,

230
00:24:42.880 --> 00:24:48.720
and says, oh, I know that. And so we often shut down, the brain just goes, oh, I already know that,

231
00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:54.400
and we miss it. And so the beauty of where revelation can come is if we come each time

232
00:24:54.400 --> 00:24:59.920
to the word fresh, and just go open, open, like you said, Elen, open my

233
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:06.320
spiritual senses, open my spiritual eyes, my spiritual ears, my heart that I can perceive.

234
00:25:06.320 --> 00:25:13.920
Help me see the depth and and the truth in that and that's also a reason why I personally

235
00:25:14.800 --> 00:25:19.760
will read verses in a lot of different translations. There's a couple things I do.

236
00:25:20.400 --> 00:25:28.560
I read in different translations and you know you can go to online to something like biblegateway.com

237
00:25:29.120 --> 00:25:36.720
if you're not used to doing this biblegateway.com and that way you can read a scripture and then

238
00:25:36.720 --> 00:25:41.520
you can click on the little button on the side and it'll open up another. You can pick a different

239
00:25:41.520 --> 00:25:46.160
translation and then you can pick another and so you can have three or four translations open

240
00:25:46.720 --> 00:25:52.800
and looking at the same verse or just have a stack of bibles like I have right here and do it that

241
00:25:53.600 --> 00:26:03.920
but read from different translations and then also read the context. Read what's before and

242
00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:09.600
what's after and that's what we're going to do today. I want you to see this model of how the

243
00:26:09.600 --> 00:26:15.840
depth comes in when we do that and so the two scriptures that we're focusing on this week for

244
00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:29.360
our promise one is very familiar probably Matthew 6 33 Matthew 6 33 and the other is going to be

245
00:26:29.360 --> 00:26:43.920
Matthew 22 verses 37 and 38. We're going to pair those two so Matthew 6 33 and Matthew 22 37 and

246
00:26:43.920 --> 00:26:51.600
38. Does anybody have it handy that they want to read Matthew 6 33 and tell us what translation

247
00:26:51.600 --> 00:27:12.560
you're reading in Matthew 6 33? Anybody? If not I'll go ahead and read it.

248
00:27:14.880 --> 00:27:21.360
I've got it. Okay and what translation are you reading from? This is the amplified version. Okay

249
00:27:21.360 --> 00:27:30.880
good. But first and most importantly seek, aim at, strive after his kingdom and his righteousness,

250
00:27:32.320 --> 00:27:39.920
his way of doing and being right, the attitude and character of God and all these things will

251
00:27:40.880 --> 00:27:50.560
be given to you also. Okay beautiful beautiful. So the concept of the amplified if those of you

252
00:27:50.560 --> 00:27:55.600
not familiar with the amplified is it'll take a word and then it'll give you the actual

253
00:27:56.480 --> 00:28:06.000
meanings of that right and so it kind of expounds upon it amplified. This is the New Living

254
00:28:06.080 --> 00:28:12.480
Translation and I'm going to read it in here just to give a difference so we can look at it in a

255
00:28:12.480 --> 00:28:34.640
couple versions 6 33. Oh here it is. Okay it goes like this seek I have mine so highlighted I had

256
00:28:34.640 --> 00:28:43.920
to find the verse it's got so many colors in here. Okay so seek the kingdom of God above all

257
00:28:43.920 --> 00:28:55.840
else and live righteously and he will give you everything you need. So seek the kingdom of God

258
00:28:55.920 --> 00:29:05.680
above all above all else and live righteously and he will give you everything you need.

259
00:29:06.400 --> 00:29:16.160
Here it is in the Passion Translation. Okay and this one

260
00:29:16.560 --> 00:29:26.400
says so above all constantly seek God's kingdom and his righteousness

261
00:29:27.520 --> 00:29:35.200
then all these other less important things will be given to you abundantly.

262
00:29:35.520 --> 00:29:46.960
Abundantly okay so this idea is priority seeking first the kingdom of God and everything else

263
00:29:46.960 --> 00:29:53.680
following. Now here's where I want you to have a fresh beginner's mind is that most people read

264
00:29:53.680 --> 00:29:59.840
this and and they see it like a spiritual instruction but I want.

265
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:04.960
to see just a little interesting. I think it fits in with everything that we were talking about

266
00:30:04.960 --> 00:30:13.680
in the conversation before we started. This is actually a solution. He's giving a solution

267
00:30:14.560 --> 00:30:24.720
to worry. Did you know that this verse is actually Jesus giving a solution to worry?

268
00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:33.200
Okay, and so what do I mean? Read the verses. This is why I say the context

269
00:30:33.920 --> 00:30:42.080
will always tell you about something. So the truth is like the whole chapter is about worrying,

270
00:30:42.880 --> 00:30:52.400
right? And so it starts all the way back in like verse 25 where it says, this is why I tell you

271
00:30:53.120 --> 00:31:01.600
not to worry about everyday life, whether you have enough food or think you have enough clothes

272
00:31:01.600 --> 00:31:07.440
to wear. And then he goes on and he talks about the birds and he talks about the flowers and

273
00:31:08.800 --> 00:31:16.640
then he goes on to say, can any of your worries add a single moment to your life? In other words,

274
00:31:17.360 --> 00:31:26.640
does your worry accomplish anything? Can you worry at a single change in your life, right?

275
00:31:26.640 --> 00:31:33.280
And it goes on talking more about worry. And then just a couple verses before we read, he concludes

276
00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:42.000
and he says, so don't worry about these things saying, what will we eat? What will we drink?

277
00:31:42.000 --> 00:31:49.840
What will we wear? And then listen, it says these things dominate. Listen to this. This is the

278
00:31:49.840 --> 00:31:55.120
New Living Translation. These worry, how am I going to pay my bills? How am I going to pay

279
00:31:55.120 --> 00:32:00.960
my mortgage? How am I going to get groceries? How am I going to get? These things dominate

280
00:32:01.600 --> 00:32:11.600
the thoughts of unbelievers. If we're thinking about those things, we're living like unbelievers.

281
00:32:12.480 --> 00:32:15.440
That's what dominates the thought of an unbeliever.

282
00:32:17.520 --> 00:32:23.840
We're not called to that, right? So it says these things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers,

283
00:32:23.840 --> 00:32:32.080
but your heavenly father already knows all your needs.

284
00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:43.120
He already knows all your needs. Then it goes into our verse. So, so seek the kingdom of God

285
00:32:44.000 --> 00:32:53.840
above all else. He will give you everything you need. So, so this is actually that verse

286
00:32:53.840 --> 00:32:58.640
that we know so well. Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all things will be

287
00:32:59.600 --> 00:33:07.440
added. That was Jesus actually giving a solution to worry. He does this long dissertation on

288
00:33:08.400 --> 00:33:17.600
don't worry. It's not going to accomplish a single thing. Instead, instead, seek. In other words,

289
00:33:18.320 --> 00:33:27.040
put in modern language, stop striving, right? Stop striving. The answer is,

290
00:33:27.440 --> 00:33:35.920
the answer is seek first. Everything else will follow. So what's the core promise right here?

291
00:33:37.200 --> 00:33:44.960
When you connect first with God, when you get in the habit that, Lord, my priority

292
00:33:45.760 --> 00:33:51.840
above all this noise, above everything else that I desire, everything that wants to dominate,

293
00:33:51.840 --> 00:34:03.280
my priority is you. So you connect first with God, then everything else, the clarity you're

294
00:34:03.280 --> 00:34:07.520
looking for, the provision you're looking for, the relationships you're looking for,

295
00:34:07.520 --> 00:34:16.560
the clients you're looking, they flow instead of forcing. Does that make sense? So it's really,

296
00:34:16.560 --> 00:34:21.920
it's really cool to think about that verse. The next time you see, you seek first the kingdom of

297
00:34:21.920 --> 00:34:27.120
God. Oh yeah, that's right. That's the biblical solution for striving. That's the biblical

298
00:34:27.120 --> 00:34:33.679
solution for worry. If I'm worrying, I'm acting like the unbelievers, the pagans, right? And so

299
00:34:34.239 --> 00:34:39.440
when you look at the principle behind all of this, because we always do scripture and science

300
00:34:39.440 --> 00:34:50.480
and strategy, when we look at the real problem, striving, worry, or striving is actually a symptom.

301
00:34:51.679 --> 00:34:55.760
It's not the problem. Striving is not the problem. Worrying is not the problem.

302
00:34:55.760 --> 00:34:59.840
It's the symptom, and it's the symptom of overthinking.

303
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:06.000
It's the symptom of of pressure and trying to make things happen.

304
00:35:06.000 --> 00:35:12.760
It's the symptom of believing the story that I'm behind, that I'm lacking, I'm buying into

305
00:35:12.760 --> 00:35:17.360
the lie and the illusion of lack.

306
00:35:17.360 --> 00:35:24.200
And so the real problem, the real issue is disconnection and priority.

307
00:35:24.200 --> 00:35:32.080
That's why I said, you know, in the build like Jesus, most people don't lack strategy.

308
00:35:32.080 --> 00:35:35.640
They're building out of order, right?

309
00:35:35.640 --> 00:35:37.200
They're building out of order.

310
00:35:37.200 --> 00:35:41.380
And so when we look at the kingdom of order, this is given you.

311
00:35:41.380 --> 00:35:45.200
So seek first, seek first the kingdom.

312
00:35:45.200 --> 00:35:46.800
That doesn't mean check a box.

313
00:35:46.800 --> 00:35:48.800
It doesn't mean like a quick prayer.

314
00:35:48.800 --> 00:35:52.800
It doesn't mean like a rushed emotional.

315
00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:54.000
Those things are great.

316
00:35:54.000 --> 00:35:56.020
You know, those things are nice.

317
00:35:56.020 --> 00:36:02.520
But what it really, really means is that it's our priority to be connected.

318
00:36:02.520 --> 00:36:09.960
It's our priority to first establish that connection.

319
00:36:09.960 --> 00:36:18.960
And that's why when I taught build like Jesus or multiply without striving, I gave you an

320
00:36:18.960 --> 00:36:19.960
order.

321
00:36:20.120 --> 00:36:21.240
I gave you a flow.

322
00:36:21.240 --> 00:36:25.440
And that's why we're doing this on Wednesdays to begin to model.

323
00:36:25.440 --> 00:36:28.760
And that's built into your prosper daily planner.

324
00:36:28.760 --> 00:36:39.560
So the whole top part of that for the prosper daily planner is what we call the golden hour,

325
00:36:39.560 --> 00:36:41.760
the golden hour.

326
00:36:41.760 --> 00:36:45.860
And this is your God first time.

327
00:36:45.860 --> 00:36:48.040
This is your God first time.

328
00:36:48.120 --> 00:36:52.640
And then the order that I gave you is we go from the golden hour.

329
00:36:52.640 --> 00:36:58.680
So we've had time to pray, to meditate, to journal, to hear from God.

330
00:36:58.680 --> 00:37:00.880
We've had our gratitude.

331
00:37:00.880 --> 00:37:03.120
We've made our declarate like we're full.

332
00:37:03.120 --> 00:37:08.000
We're coming into our day, not empty, not lacking, not striving.

333
00:37:08.000 --> 00:37:13.600
We're coming in full and out of that fullness, scripture says out of the heart flows the

334
00:37:13.600 --> 00:37:18.840
issues of life or scripture say rivers of living water flow out of your belly.

335
00:37:18.840 --> 00:37:19.840
Right.

336
00:37:19.840 --> 00:37:24.160
So now we can go from the golden hour where we're full.

337
00:37:24.160 --> 00:37:29.560
We can overflow and spill out on everyone around you.

338
00:37:29.560 --> 00:37:32.840
And I call that the overflow hour.

339
00:37:32.840 --> 00:37:40.160
And that overflow hour for me includes getting on social media and building relationships

340
00:37:40.160 --> 00:37:41.680
with new people.

341
00:37:41.760 --> 00:37:47.720
I'm full and I'm spilling out as I build relationships, which turns to clients.

342
00:37:47.720 --> 00:37:53.440
Many of you are sitting here from that overflow, Jackie, Amanda, it all started with DM conversations,

343
00:37:53.440 --> 00:37:54.800
if you remember.

344
00:37:54.800 --> 00:38:00.040
And I was coming from a full place and asking questions and talking and going back and forth,

345
00:38:00.040 --> 00:38:09.560
inviting you then, you know, either to a call or inviting you to the masterclass, the micro

346
00:38:09.560 --> 00:38:10.560
event.

347
00:38:10.560 --> 00:38:11.560
Right.

348
00:38:12.440 --> 00:38:13.440
This is how this is.

349
00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:18.560
You guys are here modeling and knowing exactly how it works.

350
00:38:18.560 --> 00:38:22.080
And the whole thing is coming from a place of love.

351
00:38:22.080 --> 00:38:23.080
Right.

352
00:38:23.080 --> 00:38:27.800
And that's why I paired it with Matthew 22, which says, love the Lord, your God, with

353
00:38:27.800 --> 00:38:30.600
all your heart, all your soul, all your mind.

354
00:38:30.600 --> 00:38:31.680
Right.

355
00:38:31.680 --> 00:38:38.520
And so scientifically, we look at scripture, we look at science when you are in worry.

356
00:38:38.520 --> 00:38:44.400
The first part of Matthew six, when he says, who of you by worrying can do anything?

357
00:38:44.400 --> 00:38:49.880
The truth is, when you're in worry, then you're in the sympathetic nervous system.

358
00:38:49.880 --> 00:38:53.520
You're in the survival mode, the fight, the flight.

359
00:38:53.520 --> 00:38:54.520
Right.

360
00:38:54.520 --> 00:38:59.600
And so you're in reactive, reactionary thinking.

361
00:38:59.600 --> 00:39:01.320
This is not clear thinking.

362
00:39:01.320 --> 00:39:03.120
This is reactionary thinking.

363
00:39:03.120 --> 00:39:04.240
I've got to fix it.

364
00:39:04.240 --> 00:39:07.040
I've got to get, I've got to do.

365
00:39:07.040 --> 00:39:08.800
You're in a reactionary.

366
00:39:08.800 --> 00:39:10.800
Your clarity is very limited.

367
00:39:10.800 --> 00:39:16.800
Of course, your piece is out the window when you're in connection and you're starting the

368
00:39:16.800 --> 00:39:19.400
way that we're talking about.

369
00:39:19.400 --> 00:39:23.400
Your nervous system regulates, right?

370
00:39:23.400 --> 00:39:32.400
You go into the parasympathetic, your clarity increases, your, your creativity opens.

371
00:39:32.400 --> 00:39:33.640
Right.

372
00:39:33.640 --> 00:39:40.560
So, so the fact is that this is not just a spiritual practice, it is, but this is actually

373
00:39:40.560 --> 00:39:46.520
affecting you spiritually, physically, financially, relationally.

374
00:39:46.520 --> 00:39:54.200
Like that's why I, that's why I teach total soul prosperity because it's affecting every

375
00:39:54.200 --> 00:39:55.200
area of your life.

376
00:39:55.200 --> 00:40:00.000
And so when you're coming from this place of connection, you think.

377
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:05.000
and you decide and you show up differently.

378
00:40:05.320 --> 00:40:08.200
It's from a different place.

379
00:40:08.200 --> 00:40:12.720
It's from a place of certainty, place of faith,

380
00:40:12.720 --> 00:40:15.960
a place of confidence that you can,

381
00:40:15.960 --> 00:40:17.800
like we open this conversation,

382
00:40:17.800 --> 00:40:20.560
you can hear a doctor's report and go,

383
00:40:20.560 --> 00:40:22.240
oh no, that's not my reality.

384
00:40:22.240 --> 00:40:25.000
No, cancel, cancel, right?

385
00:40:25.000 --> 00:40:27.720
No, that's not how I see it.

386
00:40:27.720 --> 00:40:32.080
My God says, and the truth sets us free.

387
00:40:32.080 --> 00:40:33.920
And so we've got this golden hour

388
00:40:33.920 --> 00:40:36.680
where we're connecting first.

389
00:40:36.680 --> 00:40:39.140
And that's about presence.

390
00:40:39.140 --> 00:40:41.640
It's not about performance.

391
00:40:41.640 --> 00:40:44.400
It's not more to-do lists.

392
00:40:44.400 --> 00:40:49.000
We don't go after the golden hour as like a checklist

393
00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:50.920
that's just more striving.

394
00:40:50.920 --> 00:40:52.080
Okay, did it.

395
00:40:52.080 --> 00:40:53.680
I opened the Prosper Daily Flyer.

396
00:40:53.680 --> 00:40:55.740
Yes, there's a checklist for you there,

397
00:40:55.740 --> 00:41:00.060
but the attitude is, even if I only do one of these things,

398
00:41:00.060 --> 00:41:01.940
only journal or only pray,

399
00:41:01.940 --> 00:41:04.020
it's not, it doesn't matter how much time,

400
00:41:04.020 --> 00:41:06.780
little or more, the Holy Spirit will guide you.

401
00:41:06.780 --> 00:41:08.380
But it's that idea.

402
00:41:08.380 --> 00:41:10.920
I desire you above all else.

403
00:41:10.920 --> 00:41:12.820
I seek you first.

404
00:41:12.820 --> 00:41:16.260
You're the highest priority.

405
00:41:16.260 --> 00:41:19.760
Today, Lord, live in me.

406
00:41:20.620 --> 00:41:22.700
Lord, today, let me be hidden in you.

407
00:41:22.700 --> 00:41:25.260
Today, Lord, let me overflow.

408
00:41:25.700 --> 00:41:28.540
Live through me today, Lord.

409
00:41:28.540 --> 00:41:29.780
Speak through me.

410
00:41:29.780 --> 00:41:32.780
Like Len was saying, the Holy Spirit will just take over.

411
00:41:32.780 --> 00:41:34.260
Speak through me.

412
00:41:34.260 --> 00:41:35.900
Love through me.

413
00:41:35.900 --> 00:41:37.820
Coach through me.

414
00:41:37.820 --> 00:41:39.300
Teach through me.

415
00:41:39.300 --> 00:41:41.940
Write through me.

416
00:41:41.940 --> 00:41:44.180
Serve through me.

417
00:41:44.180 --> 00:41:47.260
It's the Lord living through us.

418
00:41:47.260 --> 00:41:48.860
This is the true scripture.

419
00:41:48.860 --> 00:41:51.460
It's Christ in me, the hope of glory.

420
00:41:51.460 --> 00:41:54.620
This is what breaks the chains of religion

421
00:41:54.980 --> 00:41:57.940
that's so performance-based, right?

422
00:41:57.940 --> 00:42:01.300
And so the golden hour is this connection first,

423
00:42:01.300 --> 00:42:04.500
this presence, and then the overflow hour

424
00:42:04.500 --> 00:42:07.740
leads to genuine, real conversations,

425
00:42:07.740 --> 00:42:11.360
truly listening, truly serving.

426
00:42:11.360 --> 00:42:15.460
And then things begin to flow.

427
00:42:15.460 --> 00:42:18.820
The ideas flow, the content flows, the clients flows.

428
00:42:18.820 --> 00:42:23.020
You activate the flow with that giving.

429
00:42:23.020 --> 00:42:26.900
So the key line, if you were gonna summarize all this,

430
00:42:26.900 --> 00:42:30.740
is you don't need to push harder, right?

431
00:42:30.740 --> 00:42:32.340
It's about reconnecting.

432
00:42:32.340 --> 00:42:35.940
It's about living from the presence,

433
00:42:35.940 --> 00:42:39.020
from the place of presence, from that fullness.

434
00:42:39.020 --> 00:42:41.820
Does that make sense?

435
00:42:41.820 --> 00:42:46.420
So any, before we go into prayer together,

436
00:42:46.420 --> 00:42:50.740
anything that comes up for you as you hear this,

437
00:42:50.980 --> 00:42:53.140
what's anything God's showing you?

438
00:42:53.140 --> 00:42:54.740
Because your revelation's important.

439
00:42:54.740 --> 00:42:56.060
It'll make it deeper for you

440
00:42:56.060 --> 00:42:57.660
and it'll make it deeper for others.

441
00:42:57.660 --> 00:43:00.060
Any ahas?

442
00:43:01.380 --> 00:43:03.820
Yeah, Amanda says, yes, so good.

443
00:43:05.340 --> 00:43:06.980
What comes up for you?

444
00:43:08.260 --> 00:43:11.220
For me, I like how you're going a deeper dive

445
00:43:11.220 --> 00:43:13.180
with Matthew 6.33,

446
00:43:13.180 --> 00:43:16.020
because that's been through my other coach

447
00:43:16.020 --> 00:43:17.980
when the Lord said, it's time for you to go on

448
00:43:17.980 --> 00:43:19.700
and now you're here.

449
00:43:19.700 --> 00:43:22.340
And so it's like a deeper dive with that.

450
00:43:22.340 --> 00:43:26.380
And I like how you went into the different translations.

451
00:43:26.380 --> 00:43:30.380
And so that's been my, even like in the morning,

452
00:43:30.380 --> 00:43:33.900
but even throughout the day, if I'm doing the dishes,

453
00:43:33.900 --> 00:43:36.940
like seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness,

454
00:43:36.940 --> 00:43:39.580
all these things shall be added onto you.

455
00:43:39.580 --> 00:43:42.100
Okay, so what does that look like?

456
00:43:42.100 --> 00:43:44.300
I'm taking care of your sister today.

457
00:43:44.300 --> 00:43:45.460
Yes.

458
00:43:45.460 --> 00:43:47.340
You know, those are the things.

459
00:43:47.380 --> 00:43:50.900
So it's really speaking to me in that way.

460
00:43:50.900 --> 00:43:52.980
And, you know, we're going through a little bit

461
00:43:52.980 --> 00:43:55.820
of a rumble right now at the Walton household here.

462
00:43:55.820 --> 00:43:59.820
So, yeah, been a bit of a stretching for us.

463
00:43:59.820 --> 00:44:02.020
And so, but that's what I go through.

464
00:44:02.020 --> 00:44:03.900
Without worry in this way.

465
00:44:03.900 --> 00:44:07.340
Yeah, I'm feeling that, I'm feeling more lighter.

466
00:44:07.340 --> 00:44:08.980
I'm like, no, not today.

467
00:44:08.980 --> 00:44:10.180
That's not gonna happen.

468
00:44:10.180 --> 00:44:11.820
You've got this today, Lord.

469
00:44:11.820 --> 00:44:15.500
So yeah, I really feel that in my spirit.

470
00:44:15.500 --> 00:44:18.260
So I just love the different translations.

471
00:44:18.260 --> 00:44:21.420
Yeah, it lets us go deep.

472
00:44:21.420 --> 00:44:26.020
And this is another way of kind of putting freshness in it

473
00:44:26.020 --> 00:44:28.620
that the brain doesn't go, oh, I know this.

474
00:44:28.620 --> 00:44:31.180
Cause you hear it in a different translation.

475
00:44:31.180 --> 00:44:33.340
It's like, they say for brain health,

476
00:44:33.340 --> 00:44:36.060
like when you're driving to work or somewhere,

477
00:44:36.060 --> 00:44:37.460
take a different route,

478
00:44:37.460 --> 00:44:41.220
like practice, like going a totally different road

479
00:44:41.220 --> 00:44:45.500
because it does that for the brain, right?

480
00:44:45.500 --> 00:44:49.580
And so this is like taking a different road.

481
00:44:49.580 --> 00:44:53.820
So you get to hear it in such a fresh way.

482
00:44:53.820 --> 00:44:55.420
In fact, you know, when you're talking

483
00:44:55.420 --> 00:44:58.860
about a fresh in the passion translation,

484
00:44:58.860 --> 00:45:00.260
something jumped out at me.

485
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:11.920
me today, the way it says it here says, so then forsake your worries. Wow. Not just you

486
00:45:11.920 --> 00:45:18.440
always hear, don't worry, don't worry, but this is more active. Like not only don't worry,

487
00:45:18.440 --> 00:45:29.920
like forsake your worries, right? Yeah. Like I'm choosing to completely forsake that. I'm

488
00:45:29.920 --> 00:45:37.760
choosing not worry will not be a part of my life. And so, um, and there's another thing that I want

489
00:45:37.760 --> 00:45:44.800
to share, but I won't mention names in my family, but for me, it's been a powerful prayer to, and

490
00:45:44.800 --> 00:45:49.360
we know that it's biblical because you spoke of it and there's others that spoke of it. Like I'm

491
00:45:49.360 --> 00:45:55.360
praying for a certain member, member, family member, like, um, create those new pathways

492
00:45:55.360 --> 00:46:01.760
for them in their mind. Yeah. You know? Yeah. It's not anything new agey. It's just like

493
00:46:01.760 --> 00:46:06.720
basically in the old and fill it with the new, what you have for them from those thoughts.

494
00:46:06.720 --> 00:46:13.840
Yeah. So, and maybe identity issues or whatever. So yeah, I love that. And the beautiful thing,

495
00:46:13.840 --> 00:46:19.760
and this is why when I teach the Lord has led me, of course, I was blessed to spend decades with one

496
00:46:19.760 --> 00:46:24.880
of the top brain function specialists in the world. And so I have an understanding of the

497
00:46:24.880 --> 00:46:30.240
brain and my background, my undergraduate degree, I did all the coursework to go to medical school.

498
00:46:30.240 --> 00:46:35.120
So I've done a lot of anatomy and physiology and biochemistry and all that stuff, you know,

499
00:46:35.120 --> 00:46:42.800
in addition to business. And so God has always directed me, the scripture and the science

500
00:46:43.360 --> 00:46:47.840
and the strategy. And that's why I always bring those three things together.

501
00:46:47.840 --> 00:46:54.800
So we ground it in the word. Okay. And, but the interesting thing is all of this is taught

502
00:46:54.800 --> 00:47:05.200
in the word and science is confirming that. So when you have scriptures, um, like be transformed

503
00:47:05.200 --> 00:47:13.840
by the re renewing of your mind, we now know with the science that yes, like the things that we

504
00:47:13.840 --> 00:47:19.920
focus on, you're getting all these, you know, neuro connections, you know, the, the neurons that,

505
00:47:19.920 --> 00:47:27.520
that, that fire together, wire together. And when we stop that pattern, it's like a tree and we're

506
00:47:27.520 --> 00:47:32.480
not giving it life and energy and those dendrites and those neurons and all that, they just kind of

507
00:47:33.040 --> 00:47:40.080
start to disappear. And so it literally, there are new connections made in the brain. And then

508
00:47:40.080 --> 00:47:46.000
there's all the studies about people that meditate. They actually have like thicker,

509
00:47:46.560 --> 00:47:52.080
um, and, and more folding in the brain for like memory. Like it's, it, we could really get into

510
00:47:52.080 --> 00:47:57.920
the science that it literally changes the physical structure of your brain. So when it says be

511
00:47:57.920 --> 00:48:04.400
transformed by the renewing of your mind and take every thought captive, all of the scripture is

512
00:48:04.400 --> 00:48:10.560
backed by science. And then I always add the strategy because we don't want to just be

513
00:48:10.560 --> 00:48:17.120
talkers. We want to be doers of the word. And so how do we apply this? How do we live it? So we've

514
00:48:17.120 --> 00:48:23.040
got, um, really a short time to pray. We, we, we spent a lot more time sharing and talking. Normally

515
00:48:23.040 --> 00:48:30.880
we spend much more time in, in prayer, but, um, let's just do some, some quick, maybe one sentence

516
00:48:30.880 --> 00:48:37.520
power. Maybe everybody do like a one sentence, just powerful prayer. It can be Thanksgiving.

517
00:48:37.520 --> 00:48:43.120
It can be the things that we wrote down. I'll also send you in your notes that we're praying,

518
00:48:43.120 --> 00:48:50.320
you know, for a lens surgery and for Amanda's, um, you know, house and for the healing for, um,

519
00:48:50.320 --> 00:48:56.240
Kim's relatives and for the home, you know, for Jackie's sister, um, Natalie's boys continue to

520
00:48:56.240 --> 00:49:02.720
pray for Christie. We continue to pray for Michelle. She's not here. She has another surgery on

521
00:49:02.720 --> 00:49:10.240
Friday. So we lift up our sisters in prayer. Um, but let's just, I do have to finish straight up

522
00:49:10.240 --> 00:49:17.680
at nine. So let's, um, let's just do some quick popcorn prayers today. God knows our heart. So

523
00:49:17.680 --> 00:49:20.880
anybody go first and then I'll, I'll close this out.

524
00:49:26.640 --> 00:49:30.880
I'll just say a quick pair for my sister, Sunny Lord. I thank you for what you're doing already,

525
00:49:30.880 --> 00:49:36.160
even though it's a shock. Um, I pray that it's still your will to be done because

526
00:49:36.160 --> 00:49:40.160
we don't know how you work and then we're going to trust you with it all. Lord, I thank you for

527
00:49:40.160 --> 00:49:44.560
the, uh, apartments that are coming up for the showings. Lord, I pray that you would have mercy

528
00:49:44.560 --> 00:49:49.760
and much, much favor upon the landlord. Um, I pray that you would just give her discernment,

529
00:49:49.760 --> 00:49:53.040
Lord, of what to do and what not to do at this time. And I just give you the praise,

530
00:49:53.040 --> 00:49:59.840
the honor, and the glory in Jesus name. Yes. Thank you, Lord.

531
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:04.160
I just thank you for the revelation that you placed upon us this morning,

532
00:50:04.720 --> 00:50:08.520
that it carries us not only through the time together,

533
00:50:08.520 --> 00:50:11.580
but through the week and just praise you, Father God,

534
00:50:11.580 --> 00:50:16.360
for every amazing miracle and great,

535
00:50:16.640 --> 00:50:20.200
great commission that you give each and every one of us, Lord,

536
00:50:20.200 --> 00:50:24.840
and just praising you for the blessings to come in

537
00:50:24.840 --> 00:50:29.360
each and every one of our families, our lives and over Brenda,

538
00:50:29.360 --> 00:50:34.360
Lord for bringing this, um, this amazing, uh, community together.

539
00:50:34.480 --> 00:50:36.160
So we thank you, Lord. Thank you.

540
00:50:43.440 --> 00:50:46.680
Dear heavenly father. We just thank you for this gathering, um,

541
00:50:46.700 --> 00:50:50.000
that we have for this time and to learn more about you, God,

542
00:50:50.000 --> 00:50:53.680
we thank you Lord for refreshing our minds, Lord,

543
00:50:54.080 --> 00:50:58.520
and letting us know Lord, um, not to worry that, um,

544
00:50:58.520 --> 00:51:02.240
worry and doubt is not from you Lord. And, um,

545
00:51:03.040 --> 00:51:06.880
we just know Lord that, um, you are a provider,

546
00:51:06.880 --> 00:51:11.080
you are a helper and we just know God that you always make a way,

547
00:51:11.120 --> 00:51:12.760
even when we can't see it.

548
00:51:13.240 --> 00:51:17.360
And we just thank you God in advance for everything that you are doing.

549
00:51:17.400 --> 00:51:22.160
And we just ask you Lord to bless every one of these women, Lord.

550
00:51:23.000 --> 00:51:25.720
And we just ask you Lord, um,

551
00:51:26.360 --> 00:51:29.240
to be with, um,

552
00:51:30.440 --> 00:51:34.880
Jackie's sister as she is going through this transition of,

553
00:51:35.520 --> 00:51:38.200
um, trying to find an apartment God.

554
00:51:38.200 --> 00:51:42.920
And we just know God that this is your way of getting her out of

555
00:51:42.960 --> 00:51:43.840
this, um,

556
00:51:44.640 --> 00:51:49.040
place where she's at now and a place her where she is supposed to be God and

557
00:51:49.040 --> 00:51:51.200
let everything align with your purpose.

558
00:51:51.920 --> 00:51:56.560
We just ask you Lord, um, to be with Kim and, um,

559
00:51:56.640 --> 00:52:01.480
her daughter and her sister and, um, for their healing,

560
00:52:02.120 --> 00:52:06.400
Lord, and, um, just continue to let them have good,

561
00:52:07.400 --> 00:52:12.400
um, doctor, um, praises and just be with them and take away

562
00:52:12.400 --> 00:52:13.880
their pain right now, Lord.

563
00:52:13.880 --> 00:52:18.640
And we just ask you God to be with Helen as her surgery is coming up and

564
00:52:18.640 --> 00:52:22.560
just, um, give her the, um,

565
00:52:23.400 --> 00:52:28.200
the good doctors around her to operate on her God, um, for her wrist.

566
00:52:28.280 --> 00:52:28.720
Um,

567
00:52:28.720 --> 00:52:33.440
so she can have the mobility back in her risk God and get back to her

568
00:52:33.440 --> 00:52:37.480
regular activities. And we just ask you Lord for the healing afterwards.

569
00:52:38.040 --> 00:52:41.920
And we just ask you Lord to uplift the rest of this day and the rest of this

570
00:52:41.920 --> 00:52:44.640
week and be focused on you in Jesus name. Amen.

571
00:52:45.080 --> 00:52:47.440
Lord, Lord, we just give thanks.

572
00:52:48.160 --> 00:52:52.640
We give thanks for your word and we stand on your promises.

573
00:52:53.200 --> 00:52:56.920
So I thank you, Lord. You said we're two or more gathered. There you are.

574
00:52:57.120 --> 00:53:02.120
So thank you Lord. You've heard our spoken and our unspoken prayers.

575
00:53:03.240 --> 00:53:06.440
And thank you, Lord. You are faithful.

576
00:53:07.040 --> 00:53:10.360
You are a covenant promise keeping God.

577
00:53:10.960 --> 00:53:15.160
And so we put you first. We honor you.

578
00:53:15.160 --> 00:53:17.840
We lift you up. We lift your name.

579
00:53:19.280 --> 00:53:24.120
And I thank you for these sisters, Lord. I pray you prosper them physically,

580
00:53:24.120 --> 00:53:29.080
financially, relationally, spiritually in all their relationships.

581
00:53:29.080 --> 00:53:32.840
Lord, I pray complete and total, not just healing,

582
00:53:33.080 --> 00:53:36.960
but restoration into the Zoe life,

583
00:53:36.960 --> 00:53:41.800
the Zoe that you promise of health and prosperity

584
00:53:41.800 --> 00:53:46.600
and joy and that the fruits of the spirit will just flow through them in a

585
00:53:46.600 --> 00:53:48.080
mighty, mighty way.

586
00:53:48.080 --> 00:53:53.080
Continue to use them to bless them, to prosper them in Jesus

587
00:53:53.080 --> 00:53:57.440
name. Amen. And amen.

588
00:53:58.880 --> 00:54:02.240
Sisters, I've got to run. I love you all.

589
00:54:02.240 --> 00:54:06.880
So grateful to be here with you. No office hours tomorrow.

590
00:54:07.200 --> 00:54:08.920
I have a doctor's appointment.

591
00:54:08.920 --> 00:54:13.200
I'll tell you guys more about that having to do with my teeth, but no.

592
00:54:13.240 --> 00:54:16.040
So you guys can be praying for me on that, but I will not.

593
00:54:16.160 --> 00:54:20.560
It got changed right at the time of office hours. So no office hours tomorrow.

594
00:54:20.720 --> 00:54:23.240
Okay. Blessings. Speak soon.

595
00:54:23.880 --> 00:54:24.280
Thank you.
