You

70
00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:41.000
You

71
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:43.000
You

72
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:45.000
You

73
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.000
You

74
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:49.000
You

75
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:51.000
You

76
00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:53.000
You

77
00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:55.000
You

78
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:57.000
You

79
00:04:57.000 --> 00:04:59.000
You

80
00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:01.000
You

81
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.080
lives, and that sort of thing. So if you talk about that, and

82
00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:03.000
You

83
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:05.000
You

84
00:05:04.080 --> 00:05:08.400
just kind of what the extent of our authority over human souls

85
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:07.000
You

86
00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:09.000
You

87
00:05:08.400 --> 00:05:10.640
actually is. So that's my question for the evening.

88
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:11.000
You

89
00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:13.000
You

90
00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:14.960
Okay, yeah, sure. Yeah, I'll also answer that. In fact, I can

91
00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:15.000
You

92
00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:17.000
You

93
00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:17.600
start with that. How are you doing, Priscilla?

94
00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:19.000
You

95
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:22.440
I'm good. I'm

96
00:05:23.640 --> 00:05:24.680
filling a craving.

97
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:37.360
Um, yeah, so sure, Amy. So, in fact, I was expecting this

98
00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:42.480
question, but the, the, the teaching was it last night, I

99
00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:46.320
guess was just by that time covering everything that I was

100
00:05:46.320 --> 00:05:49.280
trying to cover it was already at an hour. So I didn't even

101
00:05:49.280 --> 00:05:53.360
cover that part. But so yes, very good question. So yes, it's

102
00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:56.000
not like you said, it's not manipulation, because

103
00:05:56.000 --> 00:06:00.480
manipulation, in other words, and the forcing of our will on

104
00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:04.560
someone else's is as the sin of witchcraft. And so obviously,

105
00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:08.720
yeah, you're right. That's not what it what it is. But it's

106
00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:11.920
doing, you know, kind of, it sounds like what it is that you

107
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:16.960
were doing with your relative, which is just simply talking to

108
00:06:16.960 --> 00:06:22.160
a soul, which is an aspect of creation that we may not have

109
00:06:22.160 --> 00:06:27.200
that we don't have the same. I don't know what you would call

110
00:06:27.200 --> 00:06:33.120
it authority over, so to speak, is that person's own spirit. But

111
00:06:33.920 --> 00:06:37.440
they're because it is creation. And because we're all want our

112
00:06:37.440 --> 00:06:43.280
spirits are all one with the Lord, then it we it can still

113
00:06:43.280 --> 00:06:48.720
respond to a son of God, it can still hear a son of God and

114
00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:54.080
respond to it and kind of kind of like jolt itself awake. And

115
00:06:54.080 --> 00:07:03.200
hey, Steph, how you doing? I'm good. And good. I like I like

116
00:07:03.200 --> 00:07:06.000
your new hair. I like your hair color. Your new hair color

117
00:07:06.000 --> 00:07:11.200
looks really good. Very summery. Getting used to it. I like it a

118
00:07:11.200 --> 00:07:18.480
lot. So sorry, where did I live off? Anyway, so yes, it

119
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:23.200
will respond still to a son of God, because again, its spirit

120
00:07:23.200 --> 00:07:27.600
and our spirit. Hey, Renee, and its spirit and our spirit are

121
00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:32.400
one with the Lord. And we're all sons of God. So even though

122
00:07:32.400 --> 00:07:36.720
that soul, that other person's soul is connected as one unit

123
00:07:37.600 --> 00:07:41.760
with its spirit, and it's not connected as one unit with our

124
00:07:41.760 --> 00:07:46.720
spirit. We don't have the same authority over it as the spirit

125
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:50.000
that it is one with. And yet, because we're all still one

126
00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:54.480
spirit, it will respond to something that comes from God,

127
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:58.480
which when we're speaking in our spirit, we do. So as an

128
00:07:58.480 --> 00:08:01.600
aspect of creation, it needs a Lord, it needs a king, it needs

129
00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:06.960
to hear the spirit of the Lord speak. And it will. And as

130
00:08:06.960 --> 00:08:13.360
something that was created to be lorded over, it feels comfort,

131
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:19.920
it feels the spirit has an authority to identify in a way

132
00:08:19.920 --> 00:08:23.840
not the same authority as that person's own spirit. But we

133
00:08:23.840 --> 00:08:28.480
intercede for each other. We stand in the gap for each other.

134
00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:32.480
What do they call it? It was that a parable that Jesus spoke

135
00:08:32.480 --> 00:08:35.840
where he was talking about the watchman. Was that in one of the

136
00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:39.679
prophets? I don't remember. But there's an element of being a

137
00:08:39.760 --> 00:08:45.600
watchman and standing in the gap for someone else. That is what

138
00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:48.320
I'm talking about. So you're right. It's not the

139
00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:51.680
manipulation. It's just simply calling somebody out,

140
00:08:52.640 --> 00:08:58.480
identifying them, talking to this person, not to this person,

141
00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:01.760
not to the broken person that they're presenting themselves

142
00:09:01.760 --> 00:09:04.560
as, but talking to them as if they're up here. They're like,

143
00:09:04.560 --> 00:09:07.840
hey, look, I recognize who you are in this spirit. And I'm

144
00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:11.600
talking to that person. And then so the soul realizes, oh,

145
00:09:12.880 --> 00:09:16.800
that's apparently who I am. That's my name. I just recognize

146
00:09:16.800 --> 00:09:20.560
it because something of the Lord is calling out to me. And so

147
00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:26.960
then the soul can choose on its own whether or not it wants to

148
00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:30.400
rise to that position because they have to own it themselves.

149
00:09:30.400 --> 00:09:34.640
But that's what it is. I hope that that answers your question.

150
00:09:34.640 --> 00:09:38.560
If it doesn't, you can chime in and let me know. Or you can ask

151
00:09:38.560 --> 00:09:41.200
me later, either on a private session or in the comments.

152
00:09:42.480 --> 00:09:46.320
But that's, oh, there you are. Did that answer? Good. Okay.

153
00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:49.920
Yeah. So that's what that is. Yeah. So and it sounded like you

154
00:09:49.920 --> 00:09:54.080
did a really great job in being able to talk to your, talk to

155
00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:57.520
your family member and talk to their soul when you said that

156
00:09:57.520 --> 00:09:59.920
they weren't even present in the room when you were doing it.

157
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:05.360
Because, again, it's all in the spirit.

158
00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:08.360
We don't have to physically be present with someone.

159
00:10:08.360 --> 00:10:09.880
That's not where the power is.

160
00:10:09.880 --> 00:10:12.560
The power is in the spirit.

161
00:10:12.560 --> 00:10:17.600
There is power in the physical, but as you go up the ladder, you know, which I don't

162
00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:18.600
know if this is backwards.

163
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:20.880
Is this backwards for y'all or is this right side?

164
00:10:20.880 --> 00:10:21.880
Yeah.

165
00:10:21.880 --> 00:10:22.880
Oh, good.

166
00:10:22.880 --> 00:10:23.880
Nice.

167
00:10:23.880 --> 00:10:24.880
Okay.

168
00:10:24.880 --> 00:10:26.920
So now I know that my image is flipped.

169
00:10:26.920 --> 00:10:33.960
So yeah, all of these areas have power, but this one is a higher power than this one,

170
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:36.080
and this one is a higher power than this one.

171
00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:41.120
So the kingdom of God, whenever it comes in to the presence of light, the principles of

172
00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:45.320
the kingdom of this world, it always supersedes it in power.

173
00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:52.160
So anyway, glad that I answered that, I mean, glad that I answered that to your satisfaction,

174
00:10:52.160 --> 00:10:59.520
but I loved how you said that you took the authority that you knew that you had in Christ

175
00:10:59.520 --> 00:11:02.200
and operated in faith.

176
00:11:02.200 --> 00:11:05.640
I don't know if someone had ever, like, if you'd ever heard a teaching or anything by

177
00:11:05.640 --> 00:11:14.320
the time that you did that, but I loved the fact that you owned your understanding between

178
00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:21.760
you and the Lord about your identity and who it is that you are, and then you've understood

179
00:11:21.760 --> 00:11:27.080
through your spirit, well, this must mean I should be able to do these types of things,

180
00:11:27.080 --> 00:11:31.440
and you stood in it and you did it because you did it according to the heart of the Father.

181
00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:36.840
When we take up, when we decide, oh, wow, I've got power, I've got authority, well,

182
00:11:36.840 --> 00:11:41.520
let me start wielding it, but we're not doing it, understand your identity as sons of God,

183
00:11:41.520 --> 00:11:45.160
not doing it out of the heart of the Father, that's when things can get messed up.

184
00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:51.640
But when you think, no, no, no, I'm identified as one with Christ, and he's righteous,

185
00:11:51.640 --> 00:11:55.840
therefore I am righteous, and he's holy, and therefore I am holy, et cetera, et cetera,

186
00:11:55.840 --> 00:12:01.680
and then you choose out of that heart that is feeling the Father's heart to then choose

187
00:12:01.680 --> 00:12:06.120
to make a decision and to move forward with something, even if you haven't actually ever

188
00:12:06.120 --> 00:12:11.920
heard from someone yet, that you actually can do it, that means that you truly have

189
00:12:11.920 --> 00:12:19.240
owned the, I don't want to say the information, but you truly have owned, you truly have owned

190
00:12:19.240 --> 00:12:24.000
that revelation, and you've made it personal between you and the Lord, and you ran with

191
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:31.360
it, and so you were open to the Lord beginning to teach you and correct you, you know, if

192
00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:34.960
like we'd start doing something, and then the Lord said, no, no, no, that's not quite

193
00:12:34.960 --> 00:12:38.520
how you do it, you know, like, oh, okay, well, then you back up and then you do something

194
00:12:38.520 --> 00:12:45.800
different, but we don't need to be so afraid and untrusting of ourselves that we think

195
00:12:45.800 --> 00:12:51.920
that anything that comes up out of us that we just start to step out and try on our own

196
00:12:51.920 --> 00:12:57.600
must be bad, no, it is a problem if we're not operating in the heart of the Father,

197
00:12:57.600 --> 00:13:04.520
but if we're doing something, looking at our Father, trying to copy him, the Lord's very

198
00:13:04.520 --> 00:13:11.000
pleased with that, and it's not a problem for us to step out trying, that is the fastest

199
00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:17.160
way that we can actually learn to be like our Father is by watching him and trying to

200
00:13:17.160 --> 00:13:22.120
copy him, and then he'll tell us whether or not we're copying him right, but it's the

201
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:28.000
fastest way to become like God, as opposed to just waiting there, afraid, waiting for,

202
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:31.840
you know, waiting for him to tell us every tiny little step of what it is that we're

203
00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:37.240
allowed to do, and that's a very slow way to learn, that's the way that I tried to try

204
00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:42.400
to live, you know, 30 some odd years of my life, and I didn't actually start making fast

205
00:13:42.400 --> 00:13:50.600
progress until I just started, boom, stepping out without being 100% sure if I was doing

206
00:13:50.600 --> 00:13:59.200
it right, and waiting necessarily for instruction, I just did it based off of what I understood

207
00:13:59.200 --> 00:14:03.880
the Father's heart to be, like, it looks like God's doing these types of things, and

208
00:14:03.880 --> 00:14:08.200
I want to be like my Father, so I'm going to do these types of things, and then he just

209
00:14:08.200 --> 00:14:12.520
kind of corrects me along the way, but he doesn't slap me and say, no, Ashley, that

210
00:14:12.520 --> 00:14:17.640
was wrong, that was evil, that was wicked, no, because I'm trying to copy him, I'm not

211
00:14:17.640 --> 00:14:23.120
trying to decide, oh, I've got my own power, and I'm just going to do, well, if, you know,

212
00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:29.240
because I have power, I want to get this done, that's a problem, and that's operating

213
00:14:29.240 --> 00:14:37.840
out of the soul, but just with, like, putting a spiritual term on it, but so anyway, I loved

214
00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:44.720
how you did that, so that's how we're supposed to do it, is to own that with the Lord, yeah.

215
00:14:44.760 --> 00:14:46.160
Hey, Holly, how are you doing?

216
00:14:49.080 --> 00:14:57.440
So, I know Priscilla had a question, so do you want to ask, clarify a bit more for everyone

217
00:14:57.440 --> 00:14:58.440
about what it is?

218
00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:00.000
Sure, yes.

219
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.080
Um, so when we were doing our consultation today, I just mentioned to

220
00:15:03.080 --> 00:15:05.520
Ashley that I would have a question.

221
00:15:05.520 --> 00:15:09.280
I feel like my questions are really random, but I like, in other words, I

222
00:15:09.280 --> 00:15:13.240
feel like there might not necessarily be like totally related to the teachings,

223
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:17.120
but it's honestly, because the teachings, they just resonate with me so much that

224
00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:18.720
I just don't have many questions.

225
00:15:19.640 --> 00:15:23.880
Um, but the, uh, the question that I have, it's about fasting.

226
00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:27.840
Um, it's just one area that I have never really walked in very much.

227
00:15:27.880 --> 00:15:33.360
And I never, yeah, I guess when we were discussing it today about like how to

228
00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:37.720
fast from a place of rest, I've always struggled with seeing it as a way of

229
00:15:37.720 --> 00:15:43.440
like twisting God's arm and I know that it's like the Bible talks about fasting

230
00:15:43.440 --> 00:15:47.480
and how like fasting goes hand in hand with some really powerful things.

231
00:15:47.760 --> 00:15:52.920
Um, and so, yeah, I would just love more clarity on that and yeah.

232
00:15:53.760 --> 00:15:54.480
Yeah, sure.

233
00:15:54.480 --> 00:16:01.760
So, uh, fasting is one of those tools that we use in our, in, um, in our body

234
00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:07.400
to move our soul into belief so that we'll believe, you know, and, and we can

235
00:16:07.400 --> 00:16:08.840
begin to operate out of the spirit.

236
00:16:09.160 --> 00:16:11.840
So, um, that's what, that's what fasting is.

237
00:16:11.840 --> 00:16:13.200
Fasting is just a tool.

238
00:16:13.440 --> 00:16:16.040
It doesn't mean that it's bad just because it's a tool.

239
00:16:16.080 --> 00:16:20.960
It means that because it's a tool and it's not a life source, it can't get

240
00:16:20.960 --> 00:16:25.600
us anything, but it's a tool that we can use to leverage our soul if we're

241
00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:32.920
struggling to believe, because it forces us, it, it, it, it aids us to start

242
00:16:33.160 --> 00:16:37.640
honing in our focus on the Lord, that he is our soul provision.

243
00:16:37.640 --> 00:16:39.120
He is our soul protection.

244
00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:43.040
Man does not live on bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth

245
00:16:43.040 --> 00:16:48.600
of God, we all know that until we have to live off of completely devoid of bread.

246
00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:49.200
Yeah.

247
00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:53.080
Completely devoid of bread and also like, oh my word, I don't

248
00:16:53.080 --> 00:16:54.320
know that I can handle this.

249
00:16:54.760 --> 00:17:01.760
So it just, uh, it, it really forces us to, um, uh, I don't want to say forces us.

250
00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:08.599
It, it's just a powerful tool because our body and our soul is so attached to it.

251
00:17:09.079 --> 00:17:14.440
And believing that it sustains us, it helps us all that we know in our head that it

252
00:17:14.440 --> 00:17:14.940
doesn't.

253
00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:21.079
And yet the fact that we struggle when we fast is indicative of the fact that

254
00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:22.440
we really are attached to it.

255
00:17:22.520 --> 00:17:23.319
We are in.

256
00:17:23.319 --> 00:17:27.800
So anyway, it's a, it helps us to focus on, um, on.

257
00:17:28.359 --> 00:17:32.040
And I'm reminding ourselves that the Lord is our complete protection and

258
00:17:32.040 --> 00:17:36.160
provision, and it helps our soul leverage our soul to believe.

259
00:17:36.560 --> 00:17:37.120
Whoops.

260
00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:48.880
I wish it wouldn't do that every now and then so much as kicked me out and I don't

261
00:17:48.880 --> 00:17:52.480
know, I don't usually have that problem on private sessions.

262
00:17:52.480 --> 00:17:53.440
I sometimes do.

263
00:17:53.480 --> 00:17:55.120
I wonder if it's the fact that it's so late at night.

264
00:17:56.080 --> 00:18:00.240
Um, so, um, uh, anyway, that that's what that is.

265
00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:01.760
So it's, it's a tool.

266
00:18:01.760 --> 00:18:06.240
And even when we're operating though, out of the spirit, we can still fast.

267
00:18:06.520 --> 00:18:08.320
Jesus operated on it.

268
00:18:08.320 --> 00:18:13.800
So it's, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a,

269
00:18:14.040 --> 00:18:15.480
uh, so what did he do?

270
00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:18.160
He operated out of the spirit and he fasted.

271
00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:21.240
Remember, he went into the wilderness and fasted for 40 days.

272
00:18:21.760 --> 00:18:26.760
So that's when we were, uh, where Satan was tempting and said, Oh well, why don't

273
00:18:26.760 --> 00:18:28.040
you turn these stones into bread?

274
00:18:28.040 --> 00:18:32.720
And Jesus said, I don't need to, you said man doesn't live by bread alone, but by

275
00:18:32.720 --> 00:18:36.600
every word that proceeds from the mouth of God, I'm being fully sustained, fully

276
00:18:36.600 --> 00:18:38.160
provided for and protected.

277
00:18:38.160 --> 00:18:39.520
There's no need for me to.

278
00:18:39.520 --> 00:18:44.360
It is, it is something that we can use, even if we're all breathing out of the

279
00:18:44.360 --> 00:18:49.840
spirit, just as I don't want to say a gift that we're giving to the Lord, but

280
00:18:49.840 --> 00:18:55.560
it's just kind of a, a, a reduced measure of distraction.

281
00:18:56.320 --> 00:18:59.280
Um, okay, here's something very interesting.

282
00:18:59.320 --> 00:19:03.200
There are people in the world who literally do not eat.

283
00:19:04.200 --> 00:19:11.160
They literally live off of communion because they, because, uh, word is, is

284
00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:12.400
what the Lord talked in.

285
00:19:12.800 --> 00:19:16.000
Um, and, uh, yeah.

286
00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:23.280
So, um, I'm hoping to learn, learn more about all of that, but because everything

287
00:19:23.280 --> 00:19:27.680
proceeds from word, everything that was created was created from word, not the

288
00:19:27.840 --> 00:19:33.240
spoken word, cause that's body, but, but from word in the spirit and like, let

289
00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:37.240
there be light, things like that, which actually in Hebrew is like the, it's a

290
00:19:37.240 --> 00:19:40.360
lot shorter than we make it in English, but anyway, it comes out of the spirit.

291
00:19:40.360 --> 00:19:46.000
So, so the spoken word in spirit generates something in quantum

292
00:19:46.000 --> 00:19:50.480
mechanics and quantum physics, which, so that creates a blueprint for what

293
00:19:50.480 --> 00:19:56.080
quantum mechanics and quantum physics and how it, it operates and what it does.

294
00:19:56.080 --> 00:19:59.920
And then quantum mechanics actually, uh, is the, create the.

295
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:06.120
blueprint and the instruction for how it manifests as particle.

296
00:20:06.120 --> 00:20:08.560
In other words, how it manifests in the physical realm.

297
00:20:08.560 --> 00:20:10.520
That's why all of the physical laws

298
00:20:10.520 --> 00:20:12.160
that we thought that we understood,

299
00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:15.400
when we began to understand quantum mechanics

300
00:20:15.400 --> 00:20:17.840
in the metaphysical world, we were

301
00:20:17.840 --> 00:20:23.520
shocked to discover that two atoms could

302
00:20:23.520 --> 00:20:29.720
be quantumly entangled and be millions of miles apart.

303
00:20:29.720 --> 00:20:33.080
Something we say and do can actually

304
00:20:33.080 --> 00:20:37.200
affect something in the middle of a star thousands

305
00:20:37.200 --> 00:20:40.640
of galaxies away because of quantum mechanics.

306
00:20:40.640 --> 00:20:42.280
So that's how all this works, is it's

307
00:20:42.280 --> 00:20:44.760
spoken word, which moves into quantum mechanics, which

308
00:20:44.760 --> 00:20:48.680
is the blueprint for something actually being physically

309
00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:51.320
created and something physically manifesting.

310
00:20:51.320 --> 00:20:54.720
So my point in saying all of that

311
00:20:54.720 --> 00:20:57.120
is we actually live off the word.

312
00:20:57.120 --> 00:21:03.440
So if zinc or vitamins or an apple, whatever,

313
00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:06.400
all of those things were created by a word that

314
00:21:06.400 --> 00:21:08.240
originated in spirit.

315
00:21:08.240 --> 00:21:11.360
So you can completely bypass the physical

316
00:21:11.360 --> 00:21:14.440
and provide your body with everything that it needs,

317
00:21:14.440 --> 00:21:19.360
strictly if you can access the living word of God

318
00:21:19.360 --> 00:21:22.920
and claim that the living word of God

319
00:21:22.920 --> 00:21:26.200
has all of the zinc in it that your body needs,

320
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:28.320
has all of the vitamins in it that your body needs,

321
00:21:28.320 --> 00:21:28.960
or whatever.

322
00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:34.760
There are people, in fact, multiple people in the world

323
00:21:34.760 --> 00:21:37.400
that actually run marathons.

324
00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:44.000
And they live for, I don't know how long,

325
00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:50.520
but they live without eating because they take communion

326
00:21:50.520 --> 00:21:55.200
and they claim that that's the body and blood of Christ

327
00:21:55.200 --> 00:21:57.080
and that within the body and blood of Christ.

328
00:21:57.080 --> 00:21:59.320
And I don't mean like, what is that called?

329
00:21:59.320 --> 00:22:02.000
And I don't mean like the way that Catholics believe it,

330
00:22:02.000 --> 00:22:03.760
where it actually physically changes.

331
00:22:03.760 --> 00:22:04.920
I don't mean that.

332
00:22:04.920 --> 00:22:06.800
It starts with an E. I don't remember.

333
00:22:06.800 --> 00:22:12.440
But I don't mean that, but that we understand, OK, Lord,

334
00:22:12.440 --> 00:22:15.400
you have given us life.

335
00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:17.880
Your body was broken that we might be healed.

336
00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:21.160
So you have already given us everything, everything

337
00:22:21.160 --> 00:22:24.080
that we need to sustain our own bodies.

338
00:22:24.080 --> 00:22:27.640
We don't actually have to eat for our bodies to be sustained

339
00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:29.760
because you sustain our bodies.

340
00:22:29.760 --> 00:22:36.120
Case in point, Moses spent 80 days fasting.

341
00:22:36.120 --> 00:22:37.560
He did 40 days.

342
00:22:37.560 --> 00:22:40.600
Then he went down and he got really upset at the Israelites

343
00:22:40.600 --> 00:22:43.240
because they had started to worship the golden calf.

344
00:22:43.240 --> 00:22:45.680
He'd been fasting for 40 days on the mountain.

345
00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:48.680
Then he went back up the mountain for another 40 days

346
00:22:48.680 --> 00:22:52.960
after he got onto all of them and fasted again, 80 days.

347
00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:55.960
So Jesus then fasted for 40 days in the wilderness or whatever.

348
00:22:55.960 --> 00:22:57.160
How are they able to do that?

349
00:22:57.160 --> 00:22:58.720
They're sustained by the word of God.

350
00:22:58.720 --> 00:23:01.680
They're sustained by his presence.

351
00:23:01.680 --> 00:23:05.080
So there's nothing magical about fasting.

352
00:23:05.080 --> 00:23:07.840
It's understanding and it's giving ourselves

353
00:23:07.840 --> 00:23:16.760
an opportunity to truly embody and own the belief

354
00:23:16.760 --> 00:23:21.360
that God sustains us and he sustains us by his word.

355
00:23:21.360 --> 00:23:23.560
We're not sustained by food.

356
00:23:23.560 --> 00:23:24.680
There's nothing wrong with food.

357
00:23:24.680 --> 00:23:26.400
Personally, I really enjoy food.

358
00:23:26.400 --> 00:23:31.040
But where we believe that it's our source, that's the problem.

359
00:23:31.040 --> 00:23:32.960
Where we believe that that's what keeps us alive,

360
00:23:32.960 --> 00:23:37.160
where we believe that God has to give us food in order for us to stay alive,

361
00:23:37.160 --> 00:23:38.240
that's a problem.

362
00:23:38.240 --> 00:23:40.080
If we believe that we have to have money,

363
00:23:40.080 --> 00:23:41.800
if we believe that we have to have business,

364
00:23:41.800 --> 00:23:45.160
if we believe that we have to have all of this stuff in order for something

365
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:47.960
to happen, that's a problem.

366
00:23:47.960 --> 00:23:50.720
God will flow through all of those things.

367
00:23:50.720 --> 00:23:54.600
But to believe that those things are necessary is not accurate.

368
00:23:54.600 --> 00:23:59.320
It's why Sarah was able to have a baby at, what, 90 years old?

369
00:23:59.320 --> 00:24:06.040
So because even though God created the physical laws,

370
00:24:06.040 --> 00:24:09.480
he didn't need them in order to actually accomplish something.

371
00:24:09.480 --> 00:24:14.800
Because everything in physical laws were created by the spoken word

372
00:24:14.800 --> 00:24:16.120
and the spirit anyway.

373
00:24:16.120 --> 00:24:18.360
So as long as you have the spoken word and the spirit,

374
00:24:18.360 --> 00:24:20.920
it can totally bypass all the spiritual and physical laws.

375
00:24:23.840 --> 00:24:25.560
It's a journey to get there.

376
00:24:25.560 --> 00:24:28.520
But the fasting helps us on our journeys.

377
00:24:28.520 --> 00:24:29.520
Yeah, that makes sense.

378
00:24:29.520 --> 00:24:33.640
I feel like that's something, like the whole concept of not needing food,

379
00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:36.440
like I've just literally never thought of that before.

380
00:24:36.440 --> 00:24:38.320
And it's never crossed my mind.

381
00:24:38.320 --> 00:24:45.040
So it's, yeah, it's something really interesting to think about.

382
00:24:45.040 --> 00:24:46.720
Yeah, very interesting.

383
00:24:46.720 --> 00:24:48.640
My mind goes on when I think about that.

384
00:24:48.640 --> 00:24:49.160
Yeah.

385
00:24:52.600 --> 00:24:54.320
So anyway, fasting is for our benefit.

386
00:24:54.320 --> 00:24:56.800
It's not a requirement.

387
00:24:56.800 --> 00:24:57.960
It's something to help us.

388
00:24:57.960 --> 00:24:59.520
God doesn't need it.

389
00:24:59.520 --> 00:25:01.160
But sometimes.

390
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:05.120
We do. So, and also, you know, even if we're imperfect, wonderful,

391
00:25:05.120 --> 00:25:08.720
religious of the Lord, and we're believing, sometimes it's just something we'd like to do

392
00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:15.280
with the Lord. Lord, you're sustaining me. I don't need it. And we can just do that. So.

393
00:25:19.520 --> 00:25:28.400
Yeah. So does, more people have come on. This is great. Does anyone have any other questions?

394
00:25:30.000 --> 00:25:38.640
I answered everything. Or anything that y'all would like to update the rest of us on

395
00:25:38.640 --> 00:25:49.840
that Laura's been talking to y'all about? Am I going to have to come up with material again?

396
00:25:49.840 --> 00:25:51.680
I probably have some somewhere.

397
00:26:01.920 --> 00:26:06.000
Oh, really? No question. Oh, I've got one.

398
00:26:08.800 --> 00:26:16.640
So does anyone have anything before I dive into this one? It's a unique one for the times that

399
00:26:16.640 --> 00:26:26.080
we live in. Okay, so why don't we just handle a really hot topic right now and talk about Black

400
00:26:26.080 --> 00:26:32.160
Lives Matter. Let's just, let's just get right into that one. Okay, so I've had, I've had some

401
00:26:32.160 --> 00:26:38.560
discussions recently with some black friends of mine who reached out and I even had at least one

402
00:26:38.560 --> 00:26:44.320
person asked me, it wasn't, it wasn't a black friend, it was someone else who was asking me

403
00:26:45.280 --> 00:26:54.960
how my, my perspective on it in light of who it is that we are in Christ. And because they were

404
00:26:54.960 --> 00:27:00.000
wondering, how do I interact with them? Because they're our brothers and sisters, how do I not

405
00:27:00.000 --> 00:27:04.480
offend them? You know, what is it that, how can I give them what it is that they need, you know,

406
00:27:05.200 --> 00:27:13.680
and, and et cetera. And so I began to talk and there was one person very specifically that reached

407
00:27:13.680 --> 00:27:20.800
out to me, a black friend of mine that was really, really hurting. And, and in fact, they told me,

408
00:27:20.800 --> 00:27:24.640
said that is why they reached out to me is that they were hurting. Now they didn't tell me that

409
00:27:24.640 --> 00:27:29.600
until after I had started after I'd been talking to them and they were able to receive some comfort.

410
00:27:29.600 --> 00:27:39.520
And what I did is, is I handled, I visited with them and spoke into them in the exact same way

411
00:27:39.520 --> 00:27:44.640
that I've been talking about the fact of how we interact with, with, you know, like say members

412
00:27:44.640 --> 00:27:49.600
of our team, if we're in business leadership or how we talk to children or how we talk to our

413
00:27:49.600 --> 00:27:57.920
spouses or how we talk to, you know, some, a friend of ours that may be wounded, talk in the exact

414
00:27:57.920 --> 00:28:04.720
same way. There is no difference. I do not care how political something has gotten. You remember

415
00:28:04.720 --> 00:28:12.000
that God talks about the fact, he said, when someone comes to you and they're hungry and,

416
00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:18.880
and they need clothes, they need warmth. He said, you don't send them off with a blessing and saying,

417
00:28:18.880 --> 00:28:23.840
may God bless you and keep you. You know, I hope that everything's works out okay. And just know

418
00:28:23.840 --> 00:28:31.120
that I'm here for you. And, and I'm sending you comfort and, and words of affirmation. He says,

419
00:28:31.120 --> 00:28:38.960
no, you give them what it is that they need. So the reason why people get upset and they,

420
00:28:38.960 --> 00:28:45.600
whether it be for, for the, what we're seeing in the current protests or whether it's water blocks,

421
00:28:45.600 --> 00:28:51.840
it doesn't matter. You know, the, the wounds that we're seeing rise up are from a belief

422
00:28:52.400 --> 00:28:58.000
that they are in lack somehow. There's something that they're lacking. They're lacking as,

423
00:28:58.960 --> 00:29:05.040
they're, they're lacking a sense of identity and they're lacking love. They do not feel loved.

424
00:29:05.600 --> 00:29:12.720
They do not feel valued and they need to feel valued. They need to know their value. They

425
00:29:12.720 --> 00:29:16.880
need to know that they're being unified with, they need to know that they're being loved.

426
00:29:16.880 --> 00:29:25.760
So that is all that I spoke to. In fact, my friend has wanted me to, I don't want to say

427
00:29:25.760 --> 00:29:29.680
that they drew a line in the sand. It kind of felt like a political line in the sand that they

428
00:29:29.680 --> 00:29:35.280
were drawing for me. And, and I, and I wasn't going to go there. I didn't talk about the politics at

429
00:29:35.280 --> 00:29:39.120
all. Didn't talk about my opinion about the, about the protest. I didn't talk about any of

430
00:29:39.120 --> 00:29:45.520
that because none of it mattered. They needed to feel loved. So I just taught, I, I just spoke to

431
00:29:45.520 --> 00:29:53.440
them and let them know. I just let them know from person to person what I thought of them.

432
00:29:53.440 --> 00:29:59.920
And I just poured love into them as a person. I let them know, I don't remember the

433
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:13.420
Exact words I use, but basically I said, you know, I'm unified with you. I'm one with you. I am here with you in this I absolutely will not abandon you in this. I made it very personal.

434
00:30:13.740 --> 00:30:20.260
And I let them I gave them what it is that they needed. They needed that love. They needed to understand that.

435
00:30:20.760 --> 00:30:27.720
That they were not being abandoned that they were not alone that they weren't on their own. I talked. I had to speak to them very personally.

436
00:30:27.960 --> 00:30:41.520
That's all that they needed when someone really knows that that they are when someone is being spoken into and it's not the broken person that's being talked to, like, no, no, no, you know, you

437
00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:54.320
You, you know, you are equal. You are this and you have just as much right and you are this it's it's acknowledging the brokenness and the lack that they're saying that they're feeling

438
00:30:54.680 --> 00:30:58.800
And they think as so many of us do that.

439
00:30:59.800 --> 00:31:09.720
That whenever we're in a state in which we're wounded. We feel that we want. We believe that we're going to be comforted if that lack is acknowledged.

440
00:31:10.080 --> 00:31:21.120
And it might kind of feel like a bandaid comfort for a while. But really, that's not making us feel better in the long run, because it's not actually healing the problem.

441
00:31:21.560 --> 00:31:30.440
That person needs to be to talk to up here, this person, their spirit needs to be talked to. And so that's what I was doing with my friend.

442
00:31:30.880 --> 00:31:39.120
I didn't talk to this person. I talked to this one. This is why they called me. They wanted me to talk to this person.

443
00:31:39.800 --> 00:31:46.400
And I refuse to. I know I didn't like make a big deal of it. I'm just saying that I didn't do that. I talked to this person.

444
00:31:46.720 --> 00:31:56.200
And they said, and they eventually it got in the conversation and got to the point in the conversation where they were responding after I was just pouring into them and

445
00:31:56.840 --> 00:32:08.920
And they said, Actually, this is why I called you. They said, I can't tell my other. They said, I can't tell my other white friends, friends, this kind of thing. He said they they

446
00:32:09.560 --> 00:32:23.200
They told me, they said, I can't be as honest with them about my feelings as I can with you because you tell me things like that. And now I feel comforted.

447
00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:34.800
That's he didn't use the word comforted, but that's what he was saying. Um, so the the east. I don't remember how the how they worded it something like, you know, I know that I'm received

448
00:32:35.800 --> 00:32:46.320
And so anyway, and I didn't, I didn't do all of the things that originally they were wanting me to do, which is acknowledge the lack and

449
00:32:46.720 --> 00:32:56.800
Don't I recognize that America is the way it is and that people are doing horrible things and that this is unjust and that this isn't right and that justice needs to be brought and

450
00:32:56.880 --> 00:33:04.200
And, you know, raising a banner. It's like, no, no, that's, that's not what's needed. What's needed is they need to

451
00:33:04.640 --> 00:33:09.840
That they're feeling a lack of love and unity and they needed to know they weren't abandoned

452
00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:21.680
And what I could do the best, the most healing that I could provide most effective healing that I could provide was to do the same thing that my God did when he came to earth as Jesus.

453
00:33:22.160 --> 00:33:31.600
He never talked about anything political ever the closest that he got to talking about things about political things is where he said, render into Caesar, the things that are Caesar's

454
00:33:32.480 --> 00:33:43.440
But whenever they tried to get him into into political discussions. He absolutely refused to do it. And that was the closest that he got when they said, well, should we pay taxes or not.

455
00:33:43.760 --> 00:33:53.280
So we'll render under Caesar, the things that are Caesar's and then he found a coin in the fish's mouth that help pace pay some taxes so

456
00:33:54.000 --> 00:34:02.760
But every other time he disappointed people when they were wanting him to make political statements or they were wanting him to come in and

457
00:34:04.040 --> 00:34:09.040
And what do you call that relieve them from their political oppression.

458
00:34:09.679 --> 00:34:19.440
And he refused to do it. He was like, no, that's not why I came. I came to meet the needs of people because that's where they're in bondage.

459
00:34:20.080 --> 00:34:27.360
They're in bondage, because they don't believe that they are who I declare that they are. So I needed to talk to my friends.

460
00:34:27.840 --> 00:34:35.040
Up here, I needed to, I needed to call them out and and remind them who it is that they are so that they could then

461
00:34:35.040 --> 00:34:45.440
They could then choose to rise to that place. And so anyway, that is something that I had a client asked me about a few days ago, I guess it was

462
00:34:45.920 --> 00:35:04.960
And by that time, I'd already had I'd already had a couple of black friends reach out to me because they were hurting with some things. And so I just, I didn't even think about it. I didn't even think about what I was going to do with it.

463
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:06.480
But it was, I was doing because I've just learned to embody this so much because I believe

464
00:35:06.480 --> 00:35:07.480
it.

465
00:35:07.480 --> 00:35:11.200
Y'all don't have to believe it if you won't want to, but this is what I believe.

466
00:35:11.200 --> 00:35:14.880
And because I believe it, and it's not just something I've heard, but I actually treat

467
00:35:14.880 --> 00:35:16.920
it so much in me.

468
00:35:16.920 --> 00:35:18.280
I didn't think about it.

469
00:35:18.280 --> 00:35:21.320
I just started talking to him, him like that.

470
00:35:21.320 --> 00:35:26.400
And it wasn't until afterwards when I had to put it into words for my clients that I

471
00:35:26.400 --> 00:35:28.040
said, thought, Oh, wait a minute.

472
00:35:28.040 --> 00:35:31.920
You know, I actually just did that the other day with a friend of mine.

473
00:35:31.920 --> 00:35:37.000
And I actually talked to them in the same way that I recommend that we talk to everyone,

474
00:35:37.000 --> 00:35:43.000
whether it be a team member or, or, you know, a spouse or a child or somebody who's wounded.

475
00:35:43.000 --> 00:35:44.920
I talked to them in the exact same way.

476
00:35:44.920 --> 00:35:48.440
And I didn't even realize at the time that that's what I was doing.

477
00:35:48.440 --> 00:35:52.800
It's just that I knew that that's how I always need to talk to people is up here and not

478
00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:54.160
down here.

479
00:35:54.160 --> 00:35:59.400
So, and I didn't even, I didn't get into anything political.

480
00:35:59.400 --> 00:36:04.080
They wanted me to cross some kind of a line that they draw on the sand, like, Nope, I

481
00:36:04.080 --> 00:36:05.080
didn't, I didn't refuse.

482
00:36:05.080 --> 00:36:07.800
It's not like we had this discussion about it.

483
00:36:07.800 --> 00:36:12.480
But there were things that they were saying, and I just totally bypassed it and I was just

484
00:36:12.480 --> 00:36:15.200
talking to them and building them up.

485
00:36:15.200 --> 00:36:19.200
And by the end of the conversation, they were like, Okay, I really am that person.

486
00:36:19.200 --> 00:36:21.560
So it was, and it made a big difference.

487
00:36:21.560 --> 00:36:26.360
So anyway, I just wanted to mention that because I know it's a bit of a bit of a hot

488
00:36:26.360 --> 00:36:27.360
topic right now.

489
00:36:27.360 --> 00:36:35.400
And I know that some people have want to want to know how to reach out and, and bring comfort,

490
00:36:35.400 --> 00:36:39.280
whether or not y'all been in uncomfortable situations, you want to reach out and bring

491
00:36:39.280 --> 00:36:45.280
comfort and it feels like this landmine, we're like, I don't know, I could feel like I could

492
00:36:45.280 --> 00:36:47.200
trying so hard to say the right thing.

493
00:36:47.200 --> 00:36:51.320
And I'm saying out of love, and that is not how they heard it, you know.

494
00:36:52.080 --> 00:36:58.160
So I just wanted to mention that these things that I talked about are very simple.

495
00:36:58.160 --> 00:37:02.280
They're not just in certain situations like, oh, well, only in business leadership, or

496
00:37:02.280 --> 00:37:03.280
only in marriage.

497
00:37:03.280 --> 00:37:07.360
No, it's the exact same across the board.

498
00:37:07.360 --> 00:37:12.680
Spirit operates the exact same way, regardless of whether it's in business or in relationship

499
00:37:12.680 --> 00:37:18.240
or in finances, we input the exact same spirit in all of these areas.

500
00:37:18.240 --> 00:37:22.840
Is that when it comes, when it goes through each one of those filters, it will manifest

501
00:37:22.840 --> 00:37:28.400
slightly different into the earth, but we put in the exact same thing into all of them.

502
00:37:28.400 --> 00:37:33.000
So I don't know if that any of y'all needed that.

503
00:37:33.000 --> 00:37:39.000
But I thought that, like, well, since we're kind of in the middle of it, I'll, since nobody

504
00:37:39.000 --> 00:37:41.880
has a question, I'll bring that one up.

505
00:37:41.880 --> 00:37:48.120
I really, yeah, I really appreciate that, Ashley, because I had a couple of people reach

506
00:37:48.120 --> 00:37:55.400
out to me today, and I have been like, silent on any platform about any of this.

507
00:37:55.400 --> 00:37:58.240
I'm just like, what, what are we going to do?

508
00:37:58.240 --> 00:38:05.640
What are you know, but I've been like, stunned at what some of my friends have done.

509
00:38:05.640 --> 00:38:11.480
Like, I'm like, sister, what, like, I don't know, just from all standpoints, people that

510
00:38:11.480 --> 00:38:17.720
I know that are like deep, deep friends that like post something, I'm like, I don't think

511
00:38:17.720 --> 00:38:20.280
you believe that last week, like, what's happening.

512
00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:25.080
But anyway, so you're right, it is like a landmine.

513
00:38:25.080 --> 00:38:29.960
And what I have observed the most and the way that I prayed has really resonated with

514
00:38:29.960 --> 00:38:30.960
what you said.

515
00:38:30.960 --> 00:38:35.640
So I just want to share what the Lord has shown me because gosh, I did not figure this

516
00:38:35.640 --> 00:38:36.640
out by myself.

517
00:38:36.640 --> 00:38:41.240
And let me just tell you, I was raised like I grew up in Littleton, Colorado, which is

518
00:38:41.240 --> 00:38:43.120
a white suburb of Denver.

519
00:38:43.120 --> 00:38:49.720
I never had, I don't think I had any person of color, like in elementary school or middle

520
00:38:49.720 --> 00:38:50.720
school.

521
00:38:50.720 --> 00:38:55.040
And then we moved to Spearfish, South Dakota, where I promise you there was no person of

522
00:38:55.040 --> 00:38:56.040
color.

523
00:38:56.040 --> 00:38:58.240
Okay, like in the middle of the Black Hills.

524
00:38:58.240 --> 00:39:05.760
So I also have never heard someone talk poorly about a black person lived in Texas for 12

525
00:39:05.760 --> 00:39:06.760
years.

526
00:39:06.760 --> 00:39:11.640
I've never heard somebody use the N word or speak despairingly of a black person.

527
00:39:11.640 --> 00:39:17.960
I really, I know that there's like some, there's people that talk like that.

528
00:39:17.960 --> 00:39:19.560
And okay, yes, I get it.

529
00:39:19.560 --> 00:39:23.640
Like I have friends from like Mississippi and Louisiana, or maybe that kind of thinking

530
00:39:23.640 --> 00:39:24.640
is whatever.

531
00:39:24.640 --> 00:39:29.120
But I, I would have like sworn up and down that it was not like a huge problem.

532
00:39:29.120 --> 00:39:34.120
So this kind of outshowing across the country has really been surprising in the natural

533
00:39:34.120 --> 00:39:35.680
to me.

534
00:39:35.680 --> 00:39:41.160
And I've just been praying and being like, where is the voice of the kingdom in this?

535
00:39:41.160 --> 00:39:46.040
Like all these pastors are speaking out and all my, my girlfriends that walk with the

536
00:39:46.040 --> 00:39:49.600
Lord are speaking out, but like, where is the voice of the kingdom?

537
00:39:49.600 --> 00:39:58.240
Because what I was observing was when a white person genuinely asks a question there, they

538
00:39:58.240 --> 00:40:00.000
are met with shame.

539
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:09.600
condemnation. When a black person speaks their, what is this new phrase? This like PC phrase,

540
00:40:09.600 --> 00:40:15.600
like your like lived experience or something or your, your whatever. Like when they speak about

541
00:40:15.600 --> 00:40:20.000
what they've experienced, everybody's like, well, that's not logical. And none of the facts back

542
00:40:20.000 --> 00:40:24.880
that up. You know, like, that's like the white people like what they answer. And so it's just

543
00:40:24.880 --> 00:40:31.520
been really interesting. There's also all of these videos out there of people of color saying,

544
00:40:31.520 --> 00:40:36.400
this is a bunch of crap and there is no systematic racism and please don't get into this. And so

545
00:40:36.400 --> 00:40:44.000
then it's like, you know, a dumb South Dakota kid. I'm like, like, which side are we going for here?

546
00:40:44.000 --> 00:40:49.280
And, and what are we doing? And the church is answering very differently based on like what

547
00:40:49.280 --> 00:40:54.160
pendulum swing of fundamentalism you're on. And okay. So there's just like all this stuff. And I

548
00:40:54.160 --> 00:40:59.280
was hashing it out with my husband and being like, but I do not hear the voice of the kingdom

549
00:40:59.280 --> 00:41:06.400
on this anywhere. Like, at least it's not loud. And I think it was, Oh, what is Priscilla Shrier's dad?

550
00:41:06.400 --> 00:41:14.240
Tony Evans? I think so. Okay. So he has said some things and he's been on like cable news,

551
00:41:14.240 --> 00:41:18.480
like Fox and stuff. And then you like see the clips, you know, on Facebook later or whatever.

552
00:41:19.120 --> 00:41:23.040
He has said some things that sounded very kingdom like to me. And I really appreciated that,

553
00:41:23.040 --> 00:41:29.600
but I was, you know, blowing up balloons and praying in the spirit, like, Oh my gosh, what is

554
00:41:29.600 --> 00:41:34.720
this? And where, you know, where's the kingdom on it. And I was reminded of a time in my twenties

555
00:41:34.720 --> 00:41:43.040
where I was like, just really in poverty and like really felt like it was because of these other

556
00:41:43.040 --> 00:41:47.520
situations. And because of these other people that had put me in this circumstance and there was

557
00:41:47.520 --> 00:41:55.040
no place for me to pull myself out of, there was no opportunity. I could not see a way forward.

558
00:41:55.040 --> 00:41:59.520
And like all the emotions that I had built up into that and whatever. And I heard a sermon

559
00:42:00.160 --> 00:42:05.760
about God's great love for me, which at the time I was like, not, I was not walking in grace and

560
00:42:05.760 --> 00:42:13.840
I was not walking in freedom or anything like that. Just in religion. And there was this one

561
00:42:13.840 --> 00:42:19.840
phrase and he was talking about Matthew 15 and the prodigal son, but he was specifically talking

562
00:42:19.840 --> 00:42:24.800
about the older brother and how the older brother was furious that when this, when the prodigal

563
00:42:24.800 --> 00:42:30.000
brother came home, he received all of his authority and all of his land and wealth back and was like,

564
00:42:30.000 --> 00:42:35.120
welcomed into the family. And the brother's like, how could you do this? I have been working so hard.

565
00:42:35.120 --> 00:42:39.120
And the father turns to him and basically says, you have had it all along.

566
00:42:39.920 --> 00:42:47.040
And that like stunned me and it broke some shackles off of me. Like, so what I really want,

567
00:42:47.040 --> 00:42:51.440
what I'm working for, I actually already have, like, how could that be? And it was sort of like a

568
00:42:51.440 --> 00:42:58.320
ball rolling into grace for me. But I felt like that's what the Lord said to me in a stint about

569
00:42:59.280 --> 00:43:06.000
what people of color need, what the voice of the kingdom into this race issue right now is, is

570
00:43:06.960 --> 00:43:14.320
you have had it all along. And now I'm not the voice that needs to say that. Like I'm not,

571
00:43:14.320 --> 00:43:19.040
nobody's starting a podcast. I'm just saying that like what you were saying is like, you talk to

572
00:43:19.040 --> 00:43:24.320
them like they are in the spirit. It's the same thing that like, I felt like the father said to

573
00:43:24.320 --> 00:43:29.120
me is like, they have had it all along. And what we need is blind eyes open. We need eyes that see

574
00:43:29.120 --> 00:43:34.960
and ears that hear what the spirit has for them, like what's open for them. And that is

575
00:43:35.040 --> 00:43:42.560
everybody's freedom. And that's, you know, that's our freedom as we walk through and walk into rest

576
00:43:42.560 --> 00:43:47.280
is like, oh, this has been here all along. So now I just get to rest and receive it.

577
00:43:47.280 --> 00:43:52.800
And for whatever people have genuinely experienced in America as being people of color,

578
00:43:53.440 --> 00:43:58.320
whatever freedom they need, like it cannot come from the system and it cannot from the government

579
00:43:58.320 --> 00:44:02.640
and it can't come from a white person, but you have had it all along. And it really is out of

580
00:44:02.640 --> 00:44:08.320
the kingdom. And it really is from the hand of the father. And that has been so encouraging to me.

581
00:44:10.960 --> 00:44:16.240
And so I just echo that from like a different angle. I think that really is what the Lord's

582
00:44:16.240 --> 00:44:24.400
doing. So thank you, Ashley. Yes, thank you. Yeah, you're right. We've already all had it.

583
00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:29.360
And then if we believe that we're down here though, well, then we don't think that we had it.

584
00:44:29.360 --> 00:44:38.560
So instead of us telling each other, regardless of whether it's a race issue, you know,

585
00:44:38.560 --> 00:44:47.120
or if it is an economic issue of, well, you know, you've got more money than I do, or whether it is,

586
00:44:47.120 --> 00:44:53.840
I don't know, you know, I'm depressed and you aren't so you wouldn't understand or, you know,

587
00:44:53.840 --> 00:44:58.640
I've had it bad and I have this trauma and I have this mental disorder and I don't know, you know,

588
00:44:58.640 --> 00:45:00.000
whatever brokenness.

589
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:03.920
that someone is coming out of, where they have this sense of lost identity,

590
00:45:04.560 --> 00:45:10.480
instead of talking to them of like, no, that's not true, and saying, no, you're more than that,

591
00:45:10.480 --> 00:45:15.040
you can be better than that. And then it's constantly bolstering them up. And then it makes,

592
00:45:15.040 --> 00:45:22.880
it makes each of us dependent on whoever is trying to support us underneath, because we're not rising

593
00:45:22.880 --> 00:45:30.400
of our own effort. So therefore, we're dependent on constant outside affirmation, where if we talk

594
00:45:30.400 --> 00:45:36.320
to this person, or if we're this person, and we're being talked to, like this, we have the opportunity

595
00:45:36.320 --> 00:45:43.360
to choose to recognize ourselves and to pull ourselves up. But what the Lord holds me responsible

596
00:45:43.360 --> 00:45:51.200
for is to always see who he sees, not to see who the world sees, because the world is seeing a lie,

597
00:45:51.200 --> 00:45:56.720
the world is seeing some the world meaning like, how I view myself in certain areas of my life,

598
00:45:56.720 --> 00:46:01.920
where I view myself as broken, I view myself as less than in other words, I'm not believing God

599
00:46:01.920 --> 00:46:07.360
about something, I have some accusation against his character that he isn't good enough or loving

600
00:46:07.360 --> 00:46:14.160
enough. And therefore I am here. So whatever the brokenness is, you know, if we, we don't need to

601
00:46:14.160 --> 00:46:22.400
be talked to that way. And we told no, we're not that we need to be told no, you're, we just need

602
00:46:22.400 --> 00:46:26.560
to be talked to up here. And so it's saying you're no, you're not that we just say, oh, my word,

603
00:46:26.560 --> 00:46:31.440
you're like this, and you're, you're like this. And I so appreciate these things about you. And I want

604
00:46:31.440 --> 00:46:37.840
you to know that we're unified, and you're never, you're never abandoned. And you're and we're this

605
00:46:37.840 --> 00:46:43.920
and we're that always speaking in affirmatives, as opposed to trying to deny something,

606
00:46:45.040 --> 00:46:51.920
then it's going to have a much more powerful effect on whoever it is that's wounded. So the

607
00:46:51.920 --> 00:46:57.200
only reason that I'm bringing up the whole Black Lives Matter thing is to help us is because it's

608
00:46:57.200 --> 00:47:02.160
the exact same thing that we've been talking about, you know, during the rest intensive,

609
00:47:02.160 --> 00:47:06.560
I just wanted to kind of pull this in and say, Hey, look, everything that we've been talking

610
00:47:06.560 --> 00:47:11.040
about with leadership or with marriage or with children or talking to a peer that that's hurt,

611
00:47:11.040 --> 00:47:17.600
whatever the whole Black Lives Matter thing is the exact same thing. It's talking to someone

612
00:47:17.600 --> 00:47:22.800
who feels that they are not something that God has declared them to be, or that other people

613
00:47:22.800 --> 00:47:28.240
aren't recognizing that, that they are who God has declared them to be. So we give them what they

614
00:47:28.240 --> 00:47:34.000
we give them what it is that they really want what they really need. We give them food, we,

615
00:47:34.000 --> 00:47:39.360
we give them a cloak, we don't just talk to them and just say, Hey, look, it's different than that

616
00:47:39.360 --> 00:47:44.240
different than what you believe it's better than that you can have more you can be more you can I

617
00:47:44.240 --> 00:47:49.600
don't know whatever, depending on what type of brokenness a person is in, whether it be the race

618
00:47:49.600 --> 00:47:56.960
thing or an economic thing or a mental illness thing or whatever. And not not talking to that.

619
00:47:57.760 --> 00:48:03.680
And just trying to not denying it but saying, well, sometimes it comes across as denying,

620
00:48:03.680 --> 00:48:08.800
but sometimes it's just kind of like, Hey, look, you can have more you can be more whatever,

621
00:48:08.800 --> 00:48:15.520
just just saying it like it is, then we're the first people most likely that those people will

622
00:48:15.520 --> 00:48:22.000
ever have heard, talk to them like that and recognize that that's who they are. And we're

623
00:48:22.000 --> 00:48:28.880
just supposed to talk to all of you to, to each of to all of us like that. We're not supposed to

624
00:48:28.880 --> 00:48:35.440
ever under any circumstances, regardless of the issue, talk to this person, all of us, regardless

625
00:48:35.440 --> 00:48:40.160
of brokenness, regardless of who it is, whether it's a stranger or a family member, always talk

626
00:48:40.160 --> 00:48:48.880
to everyone like this. And, and that is in their finally hear the voice of their Lord. And, and

627
00:48:48.880 --> 00:48:57.680
it's the presence of God that transforms people and, and into sense of God, and that transforms

628
00:48:57.680 --> 00:49:06.720
them and changes their lives, not logic. So logic hasn't been working, right? It's not going to work

629
00:49:06.720 --> 00:49:12.160
because logic can't heal a hurt heart, right? It can't heal emotions, you have to deal with it

630
00:49:12.160 --> 00:49:17.520
emotionally. So anyway, that's the only reason I bring it up is that's not a separate special issue.

631
00:49:18.240 --> 00:49:22.800
It's the exact same thing that we've been talking about this whole time. We always talk to this

632
00:49:22.800 --> 00:49:27.760
person. We don't talk a bit to this person and say that they're better than that. We push them

633
00:49:27.760 --> 00:49:35.600
up or that they're not that, and that they have more than that. Just talk, talk, talk as reality

634
00:49:35.600 --> 00:49:41.760
actually is not of what it can be and what it could be and the freedom that they could move into,

635
00:49:41.840 --> 00:49:49.440
but declare it as if it already is it because it is. So, and then we talk that way. So anyway,

636
00:49:49.440 --> 00:49:54.400
I just wanted to mention that because somebody brought it up the other day as if wondering

637
00:49:54.400 --> 00:49:59.840
that that was because I don't know, there was, it has gotten so politicized.

638
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:06.440
That they began to kind of, it sounded like that they began to kind of see it as, how

639
00:50:06.440 --> 00:50:14.000
would you say it, so many of the people that I've talked to just thought that it was just

640
00:50:14.000 --> 00:50:15.000
a separate issue.

641
00:50:15.000 --> 00:50:21.120
And I'm like, no, no, no, it's the exact same thing, the exact same thing, anyway, but thank

642
00:50:21.120 --> 00:50:29.000
you, you're absolutely right, it's, we're all, we all already have it, so.

643
00:50:29.000 --> 00:50:43.600
So, does anyone have anything else?

644
00:50:43.600 --> 00:50:48.240
I really appreciated how you kind of explained the difference between, you know, talking

645
00:50:48.240 --> 00:50:52.920
to someone, you know, down here or, you know, trying to push them up versus like speaking

646
00:50:52.920 --> 00:50:57.680
to who they already are, because that was actually one question I had as you were like

647
00:50:57.680 --> 00:51:00.960
explaining, I'm like, you know, what does that actually look like, but you answered

648
00:51:00.960 --> 00:51:07.240
my question, and yeah, I had to laugh, Holly, when you were talking about South Dakota,

649
00:51:07.240 --> 00:51:10.520
or was it North Dakota, I forget which one you were saying, it was my husband and I were

650
00:51:10.520 --> 00:51:14.800
just discussing the other night that, about how, like, yeah, there's just not a lot of

651
00:51:14.800 --> 00:51:21.240
Black people in the West, and Arnold was just telling me a joke about a Black man who went

652
00:51:21.240 --> 00:51:25.880
to South Dakota and asked, like, where the colored part of town is, and the man just

653
00:51:25.880 --> 00:51:31.080
told him that, well, probably wherever you go, because he was literally the only person.

654
00:51:31.080 --> 00:51:32.080
Yeah.

655
00:51:32.080 --> 00:51:33.080
Yeah.

656
00:51:33.080 --> 00:51:37.800
Yeah, and I live in South Dakota, because, and I'm very strict about that, because North

657
00:51:37.800 --> 00:51:41.640
Dakota is the only place worse than South Dakota.

658
00:51:41.640 --> 00:51:44.920
I did not want to be looped in with North Dakota.

659
00:51:44.920 --> 00:51:46.760
Oh, that's hilarious.

660
00:51:46.760 --> 00:51:54.040
Yeah, no, I, well, I used to live in Western Montana, and I literally remember, I remember

661
00:51:54.200 --> 00:51:57.880
two people, no, I remember seeing one person that was Black.

662
00:51:58.600 --> 00:51:59.800
That was, that was it.

663
00:51:59.800 --> 00:52:02.280
Like, there's just not a lot of Black people in the West.

664
00:52:02.280 --> 00:52:03.960
Now, did you have Native Americans, though?

665
00:52:04.840 --> 00:52:07.400
Ah, yes, we had a lot of those.

666
00:52:07.400 --> 00:52:12.200
Yeah, they wouldn't, and I, yeah, I used to work at a little Benton Den store, and so

667
00:52:12.200 --> 00:52:17.640
we'd see a lot of people come in there, but yeah, there was just one Black person that

668
00:52:17.640 --> 00:52:20.600
I can remember ever seeing, and yeah, it was kind of interesting, because, you know, they'd

669
00:52:20.600 --> 00:52:24.680
always kind of, people would almost stare without even thinking about it, because they

670
00:52:24.680 --> 00:52:28.360
just, they just don't think about it, because they just aren't, they just don't see people

671
00:52:28.360 --> 00:52:30.840
of color very much, and yeah, it was just, it was interesting.

672
00:52:32.920 --> 00:52:34.600
Yeah, it is.

673
00:52:36.600 --> 00:52:37.160
I don't know.

674
00:52:41.160 --> 00:52:43.800
Hey, am I gonna have to come up with another topic?

675
00:52:45.480 --> 00:52:49.720
It's a good thing that I had a, I had a list here of things that I was gonna, gonna do

676
00:52:49.720 --> 00:52:53.240
teachings on whenever, whenever people don't have questions.

677
00:52:54.040 --> 00:52:55.800
Good thing I've got some stuff written down.

678
00:52:55.800 --> 00:52:57.480
That was one of them, so I can mark that one off.

679
00:53:02.520 --> 00:53:03.480
I think it's good.

680
00:53:03.480 --> 00:53:11.320
I think the, the Black Lives Matter stuff is, more than anything, I think that has caused

681
00:53:11.320 --> 00:53:19.640
some unrest in me, because I used to be a big fan of, like, Brene Brown, and I've read

682
00:53:19.640 --> 00:53:25.320
a majority of her books, not all of them, or whatever, and so when you feel like you

683
00:53:25.320 --> 00:53:29.800
watch some of these people, and like, how they respond, and how they answer, and it,

684
00:53:29.800 --> 00:53:37.080
and I, I would judge the fruit as, like, not a kingdom, and that kind of thing.

685
00:53:37.080 --> 00:53:43.080
It really is concerning, and, and I'm, and I was nervous for a while that this just isn't

686
00:53:43.080 --> 00:53:47.640
gonna turn out helpful for the Black community at all, because, like, wasn't it in the 60s,

687
00:53:47.640 --> 00:53:55.640
there were race riots, too, and it, like, set the Black communities back, like, 20 or 30 years,

688
00:53:55.640 --> 00:53:57.160
you know, because here's the deal.

689
00:53:57.160 --> 00:54:00.920
White people might not be racist, but we sure are prejudiced, because we just want everybody

690
00:54:00.920 --> 00:54:02.120
to act right.

691
00:54:02.120 --> 00:54:06.360
Like, that's what I was telling my husband, which I will, like, which I will, like, say

692
00:54:06.440 --> 00:54:11.000
to you, it's like, no, we are, we are equally as prejudiced against anyone who cannot behave

693
00:54:11.000 --> 00:54:14.040
themselves, and I think it comes from the British, like, I think we just haven't, like,

694
00:54:14.040 --> 00:54:20.600
shaken that part off yet, you know, from, like, 1776, okay, but it doesn't care, we

695
00:54:20.600 --> 00:54:25.320
don't care what color you are, like, mind your manners, that, that's, like, it, but

696
00:54:25.320 --> 00:54:30.040
you can, but I'm not, someone else can see up and say that, and so I think it's tough

697
00:54:30.040 --> 00:54:34.680
when people are, like, we just need to sit in this pain with, with any person of color

698
00:54:34.680 --> 00:54:38.680
for a while, like, we need to just sit here and hear them, and there's, like, this one

699
00:54:39.640 --> 00:54:45.960
meme going around about, like, how realizing your white privilege can cause depression

700
00:54:45.960 --> 00:54:52.200
and anxiety, and you need to stick with it, and it can cause confusion and that kind of

701
00:54:52.200 --> 00:54:56.200
thing, and I was, like, so, basically, what you're telling me is the hordes of hell are

702
00:54:56.200 --> 00:54:59.880
being released against you, against me, like, process.

703
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:06.380
seen my wife privileged. No, no. And why would I know we wanted

704
00:55:06.380 --> 00:55:09.600
to get rid of all of this, not just like put it on. Okay, I'm

705
00:55:09.600 --> 00:55:13.920
done. Anyway. I've got to stop. But it's like this whole thing

706
00:55:13.920 --> 00:55:16.920
where you like hear these people that have brought so much

707
00:55:16.920 --> 00:55:20.120
freedom in the soul to so many people. And then they're like,

708
00:55:20.320 --> 00:55:24.960
just sit in this pain for a while. And I'm like, I can't.

709
00:55:24.960 --> 00:55:30.720
I'm just like, No, Jesus, a little too deeply for this. Like,

710
00:55:30.760 --> 00:55:35.960
I'm not gonna sit here. Like, we'll move on out. Sorry. But I

711
00:55:35.960 --> 00:55:39.880
don't know. But it makes me nervous that that I don't know

712
00:55:39.880 --> 00:55:43.200
my prayer and like the way that I've been interceding is like,

713
00:55:43.200 --> 00:55:47.760
where's the voice? Like, where's the person with the voice that

714
00:55:47.760 --> 00:55:52.560
is called for this time to bring the message of Christ's freedom

715
00:55:52.560 --> 00:55:56.960
to humanity? Like, that's what must be said, period. And like,

716
00:55:56.960 --> 00:56:01.280
who is it and Lord, raise them up and put a spotlight on them

717
00:56:01.320 --> 00:56:05.440
like whoever they are. And so, um, that's what I've been

718
00:56:05.440 --> 00:56:09.040
praying to this not mean, like, I don't feel like that at all. I

719
00:56:09.040 --> 00:56:12.320
feel like the Lord is like, you better hush it. You are way too

720
00:56:12.320 --> 00:56:16.920
opinionated for you are way too opinionated for any of this. Be

721
00:56:16.920 --> 00:56:21.640
quiet. Yeah, and like what you said, you know, Jesus.

722
00:56:22.800 --> 00:56:28.280
Princess Jesus lived in an extremely political time of

723
00:56:28.320 --> 00:56:32.400
tremendous political upheaval and unrest. And there were those

724
00:56:32.600 --> 00:56:36.480
there was a zealots, etc. And he didn't have social media. And

725
00:56:36.480 --> 00:56:42.960
all he did was he just, he just went around and touched people

726
00:56:43.160 --> 00:56:47.920
personally, one on one. And then had his disciples, which were

727
00:56:47.920 --> 00:56:51.240
more than the 12. He had his 12. And then he had a greater number

728
00:56:51.240 --> 00:56:54.160
of disciples beyond the 12. And of course, he had blocks of

729
00:56:54.160 --> 00:56:56.520
people who would follow him from place to place, or that would

730
00:56:56.520 --> 00:57:00.720
catch him here and there. And so it's people being transformed by

731
00:57:00.720 --> 00:57:04.640
the presence of God when, when we interact with them, when we

732
00:57:04.640 --> 00:57:07.800
show them Christ, when we show them Jesus, that has the

733
00:57:07.800 --> 00:57:12.120
potential to spread like wildfire, wildfire. And it did,

734
00:57:12.160 --> 00:57:14.480
it did in Jesus's time, my goodness, he was only in

735
00:57:14.480 --> 00:57:17.920
ministry three years. And my goodness, the upheaval that he

736
00:57:17.920 --> 00:57:22.080
caused in one hole in an entire nation without social media,

737
00:57:22.200 --> 00:57:27.480
walking on foot from place to place. So, and so the power of

738
00:57:27.480 --> 00:57:31.760
God is, is the is the one that can do what can transform all of

739
00:57:31.760 --> 00:57:36.600
this. And there are things that we can pray for, in the spirit,

740
00:57:36.840 --> 00:57:42.680
and that will allow the end where we can begin to take more

741
00:57:42.680 --> 00:57:49.240
dominion in the spirit, and we can declare things. And, for

742
00:57:49.240 --> 00:57:52.640
instance, you know, if there are things like say, for instance,

743
00:57:53.720 --> 00:57:58.640
there's been some physical, there's been some physical

744
00:57:58.640 --> 00:58:02.000
turmoil, you know, from physical creation going on around the

745
00:58:02.000 --> 00:58:09.080
world the past few months back or whatever. And we could and

746
00:58:09.400 --> 00:58:13.520
people getting to get on like, for instance, the fires of, of

747
00:58:13.520 --> 00:58:18.160
Australia, and those were being pushed back by the people of

748
00:58:18.160 --> 00:58:22.360
God rising up and declaring things in the spirit. Yeah,

749
00:58:22.640 --> 00:58:26.280
people were learning to have dominion. And they were

750
00:58:26.280 --> 00:58:30.280
practicing, they were trying and they were figuring it out. And

751
00:58:30.600 --> 00:58:35.640
how to call things into being when they weren't present, they

752
00:58:35.640 --> 00:58:38.640
weren't in Australia, they weren't physically fighting the

753
00:58:38.640 --> 00:58:42.120
fire, but they were spiritually fighting the fire, and it was

754
00:58:42.120 --> 00:58:46.440
having a bigger impact than the firefighters, and all of that.

755
00:58:46.560 --> 00:58:49.320
They were, they were speaking to the fire, they were speaking to

756
00:58:49.320 --> 00:58:51.520
the air, they were speaking to the water, they were speaking to

757
00:58:51.520 --> 00:58:54.320
the rain, they were, they were doing things they were and, and,

758
00:58:54.600 --> 00:58:59.560
and all of a sudden, rain started flooding. And I mean,

759
00:58:59.560 --> 00:59:03.120
there was no reason why it should have, it was just the

760
00:59:03.120 --> 00:59:08.480
prayers of the Lord, we can the same, that that same dominion

761
00:59:08.480 --> 00:59:13.920
can be had and declared over, over creation, including human

762
00:59:13.920 --> 00:59:16.920
souls, like what we were talking about at the very, very beginning

763
00:59:16.920 --> 00:59:25.880
of the, of the q&a back at about an hour ago. And we can call for

764
00:59:25.880 --> 00:59:31.400
call for rest, we can declare and tell everything to be calm.

765
00:59:32.000 --> 00:59:37.360
And for souls to recognize who it is that they are, because

766
00:59:37.360 --> 00:59:40.320
we're calling them forth, we're calling them by name, we're

767
00:59:40.320 --> 00:59:44.000
asking the Lord to reveal things to us, that we can then speak

768
00:59:44.000 --> 00:59:47.600
into, and we can actually declare. And so it's not

769
00:59:47.600 --> 00:59:51.440
something that I know how to describe, maybe in a whole lot

770
00:59:51.440 --> 00:59:55.400
more detail than I am at this moment, that I have done that

771
00:59:55.400 --> 00:59:59.720
before. And it's worked. I have talked to people

772
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:07.080
spirits and souls. And it has changed things in the heavenly realm. And I have not been

773
01:00:07.080 --> 01:00:13.160
present, at least I wasn't physically present. And it has changed things. It is shocking.

774
01:00:13.160 --> 01:00:16.800
And so I'm learning it as well. So all that we have to do is we have to know who it is

775
01:00:16.800 --> 01:00:20.800
that we are in Christ. And then from that position, think, okay, what do I feel that

776
01:00:20.800 --> 01:00:24.320
I can do? Okay, I'm going to start doing this, I'm going to start doing that, start acting

777
01:00:24.320 --> 01:00:30.760
like our father. And then he'll show us, you know, if we are, if that's how he is actually

778
01:00:30.760 --> 01:00:36.440
going about doing it. And so we can do the same thing with with with this to bring calm

779
01:00:36.440 --> 01:00:41.720
to the situation too. But what's important and all we have all we need for calm to be

780
01:00:41.720 --> 01:00:49.840
brought is that people feel and that people know who they are. That is all that is needed.

781
01:00:49.840 --> 01:00:56.440
Not a not a policy, some kind of political policy or government law or that we all rise

782
01:00:56.440 --> 01:01:02.440
up publicly and agree to something, you know, or that people start acting different. You

783
01:01:02.440 --> 01:01:07.080
know, I like what you're talking about, like, we just like, Oh, can't we just all get along?

784
01:01:07.080 --> 01:01:12.120
You can't we just all act like it? We know what we've been trying that for however many

785
01:01:12.120 --> 01:01:17.920
hundreds, not thousands of years, and it hasn't worked. Because the issue is the human heart.

786
01:01:18.000 --> 01:01:23.560
So, you know, what you're talking about, you know, that Europeans, your people of European

787
01:01:23.560 --> 01:01:27.680
descent are just like, Hey, look, we just all just need to behave. And yet, that's still

788
01:01:27.720 --> 01:01:31.800
like what you were saying. It still doesn't work. You know, it's still not dealing with

789
01:01:31.800 --> 01:01:35.320
the root problem. Yeah. Okay.

790
01:01:36.680 --> 01:01:41.880
I can't ever tell if I'm muted or unmuted. But anyway, okay, I've got to tell you all

791
01:01:41.880 --> 01:01:48.000
this. So, um, one of the things that I did when I was pregnant is I blessed my baby's

792
01:01:48.000 --> 01:01:53.280
spirits in the womb, because I think that your spirit is whole and grown, okay, when

793
01:01:53.280 --> 01:02:00.480
you're conceived. So okay, I just have to show you this book. It's right here. So Arthur

794
01:02:00.480 --> 01:02:07.000
Burke, he's real weird, y'all are gonna love him. He has this joke called pure joy. And

795
01:02:07.000 --> 01:02:12.200
then he has another one called blessing your spirit. And it's blessings for the spirit

796
01:02:12.200 --> 01:02:16.800
man that are all scripture based, and stuff like that. But they are so powerful. And I

797
01:02:16.800 --> 01:02:24.160
think that's why my boys are are so wild is because I like bless their little spirits.

798
01:02:24.400 --> 01:02:31.240
And they're just huge in these tiny little bodies. And so anyway, I was thinking about

799
01:02:31.240 --> 01:02:34.280
that with the race arts, because I don't know what y'all's dreams have been like lately.

800
01:02:34.280 --> 01:02:42.480
But in all of my dreams, there's like tornadoes or tsunamis, or something like that. And I

801
01:02:42.520 --> 01:02:46.640
like, well, and people are like, you know, it's like Avengers when you're on the street.

802
01:02:46.640 --> 01:02:49.840
And like, people are just like running everywhere and all the cars. I don't know if you guys

803
01:02:50.160 --> 01:02:56.480
watch as much TV as I do or movies as I do. I need help. But anyway, so um, they're like

804
01:02:56.480 --> 01:03:01.400
going crazy and running everywhere. And I was like, well, stand still. This isn't my

805
01:03:01.400 --> 01:03:06.160
dream. And I feel like the Lord is like, I want you to call that out of the sky. And I'm

806
01:03:06.160 --> 01:03:13.000
like, Okay, what should I say? Like, you know, could you just like, do I just like, should I

807
01:03:13.000 --> 01:03:17.200
bring the natural shopping spirit? Let me just make it up as I go like, you know, and

808
01:03:17.200 --> 01:03:21.880
so it's like, I feel like the Holy Spirit will give me not like a script, but like, I'll

809
01:03:21.880 --> 01:03:27.160
have a knowing of what to say and what to pray. And I will pray these tornadoes like out

810
01:03:27.160 --> 01:03:32.400
of the sky, and they like turn into thin clouds. And my boys are always with me. My

811
01:03:32.400 --> 01:03:38.560
husband is never around in any stream. Which is funny, because he's very calm. So okay,

812
01:03:39.200 --> 01:03:43.360
that's fine. He wouldn't be caught dead in the middle of like a panic, like a public

813
01:03:43.360 --> 01:03:48.800
panic. And or even like a tsunami or anything like that. And there's a lot I don't know if

814
01:03:48.800 --> 01:03:53.640
y'all keep up with prophecies. But there's a lot of prophecies about stuff like this

815
01:03:53.640 --> 01:03:58.160
happening, not in the natural, but like what's coming in the spirit and how the Lord's

816
01:03:58.160 --> 01:04:05.760
showing people how to respond to it. And anyway, um, so but my dreams have been like that.

817
01:04:05.760 --> 01:04:09.680
And then everyone there's been, there's been like, the Lord's like, I want you to call it

818
01:04:09.680 --> 01:04:15.480
out of the sky. I want you to like flatten the waves. And I'm like, Okay, how and he will

819
01:04:15.520 --> 01:04:20.280
lead me in that and it just flattens and my boys will be like, you did it, mama, you did

820
01:04:20.480 --> 01:04:24.480
it, you know, and it's just hysterical, because that's what I want them to see. Like, I want

821
01:04:24.480 --> 01:04:29.120
them to see the dominion of God, I want them to see like the safety and the power and the

822
01:04:29.120 --> 01:04:34.920
goodness of God on with their eyes on like that kind of level. And I've always prayed for those

823
01:04:34.920 --> 01:04:44.760
experiences. And I think it would be cool to like walk into a riot or something like that, as

824
01:04:44.760 --> 01:04:50.080
you're called to and as you're given authority to like, okay, but to like walk into a riot

825
01:04:50.080 --> 01:04:54.240
and to just look around and be like, Okay, Lord, who needs to be loved? Like who needs to

826
01:04:54.240 --> 01:04:59.280
be? You know, I don't know. I don't know if you guys heard about the George Floyd

827
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:05.360
um his they had a funeral for him here in Fayetteville which is like an hour

828
01:05:05.360 --> 01:05:08.560
away from us and then they did in Houston and at both of them

829
01:05:08.560 --> 01:05:11.920
like revival broke out on the street people started praying for each other

830
01:05:11.920 --> 01:05:14.800
and healing and like they what like went out of the church

831
01:05:14.800 --> 01:05:18.640
building and like started laying hands on people on the street and it like

832
01:05:18.640 --> 01:05:22.080
it was just like a calmness because you know Fayetteville got

833
01:05:22.080 --> 01:05:25.120
tore up they still have not opened that Walmart

834
01:05:25.120 --> 01:05:31.440
over there it's crazy they tore the town apart so um

835
01:05:31.440 --> 01:05:34.720
it's just been really interesting but I think that's

836
01:05:34.720 --> 01:05:37.760
probably how the kingdom is going to answer this is that

837
01:05:37.760 --> 01:05:41.040
we're going to just individually be out in the streets and have like the

838
01:05:41.040 --> 01:05:45.520
availability to to to speak

839
01:05:45.520 --> 01:05:50.240
like identity into people and watch it fall and watch it transform the crowd

840
01:05:50.240 --> 01:05:53.040
and anyway that's what I'm praying for yeah

841
01:05:53.040 --> 01:05:56.400
that's good and I love hearing about your dreams that that

842
01:05:56.400 --> 01:05:59.440
you know you're you're doing that and you're speaking those things to you in

843
01:05:59.440 --> 01:06:02.240
your dreams because yeah we absolutely have that

844
01:06:02.240 --> 01:06:06.560
that ability to do now and we just start and like what you

845
01:06:06.560 --> 01:06:10.000
say where you're like well what do I say what do I do and then

846
01:06:10.000 --> 01:06:13.200
the spirit just starts telling you well pray this kind of a

847
01:06:13.200 --> 01:06:16.240
thing tell the you know tell the such and such

848
01:06:16.240 --> 01:06:19.120
of nature to do this and such and such a nature to do that so

849
01:06:19.120 --> 01:06:24.240
I just tell it like I'm a son of God and this is what I want you to do I'm

850
01:06:24.240 --> 01:06:27.520
here to protect you and to take care of you and provide for

851
01:06:27.520 --> 01:06:30.320
you and I'm telling you that this is what I need you to do

852
01:06:30.320 --> 01:06:35.280
so I expect you to do it yeah while watching the things of nature you know

853
01:06:35.280 --> 01:06:37.600
their their stories about people you know that

854
01:06:37.600 --> 01:06:41.760
like you know obviously just like Elijah did only they're doing it today

855
01:06:41.760 --> 01:06:45.360
you know causing it to rain and then causing it to stop

856
01:06:45.360 --> 01:06:49.200
just declaring it and immediately the rain will turn on and will turn off

857
01:06:49.200 --> 01:06:52.800
you know and because they're they're they're standing in their authority as

858
01:06:52.800 --> 01:06:57.200
sons and kings of God because they're learning I mean that

859
01:06:57.200 --> 01:07:00.480
we're like a three-year-old or five-year-old okay let's

860
01:07:00.480 --> 01:07:03.360
try this out I don't really know how it works you

861
01:07:03.360 --> 01:07:08.160
know but yeah yeah yeah that's good

862
01:07:08.160 --> 01:07:13.280
okay well anything else before we jump off

863
01:07:13.520 --> 01:07:16.240
Holly you must be a lot more mature than I am because I'm having the same kind of

864
01:07:16.240 --> 01:07:20.320
dreams except I'm in mom mode so I'm like trying to manage everything

865
01:07:20.320 --> 01:07:23.200
and get everybody to straighten up and knock it off and

866
01:07:23.200 --> 01:07:28.080
I wake up tired I don't remember what it was I said the other day and Dan teased

867
01:07:28.080 --> 01:07:34.080
me about well that's not living in rest I literally like I'm having the same

868
01:07:34.080 --> 01:07:37.360
dreams but I'm ready to bust heads I'm not quite as

869
01:07:37.360 --> 01:07:42.320
spiritual I guess about it no no no no you remember like a month

870
01:07:42.320 --> 01:07:44.960
ago when I was telling you all my dreams that

871
01:07:44.960 --> 01:07:48.240
that I got like stuck in situations and couldn't get out of them

872
01:07:48.240 --> 01:07:51.520
do you were you did you hear me talk about that stuff

873
01:07:51.520 --> 01:07:58.320
I may have I'm not sure yeah so when did we start this April so like in

874
01:07:58.320 --> 01:08:02.640
literally in March I would have these reoccurred my whole

875
01:08:02.640 --> 01:08:05.600
life I've had this probably since a teenager I've had these reoccurring

876
01:08:05.600 --> 01:08:10.000
dreams that I get stuck in a scenario and I can't get where I'm supposed to be

877
01:08:10.320 --> 01:08:14.000
and I've promised somebody I'm going to be there I have a job or

878
01:08:14.000 --> 01:08:17.520
I'm supposed to be like on stage you know it's like these wild things and

879
01:08:17.520 --> 01:08:19.920
then I'm I'm like stuck in the dressing room and

880
01:08:19.920 --> 01:08:23.840
no matter what I cannot get out of the dressing room or like and every door is

881
01:08:23.840 --> 01:08:26.800
the wrong door yeah anything that can happen happens

882
01:08:26.800 --> 01:08:30.720
yep yes and I had those dreams forever and

883
01:08:30.720 --> 01:08:38.479
um um oh Ashley do you remember

884
01:08:38.479 --> 01:08:42.560
I know what it was yeah we talked about the sentence it was on a zoom call like

885
01:08:42.560 --> 01:08:45.920
this and Ashley said whatever I'm doing I'm about my father's

886
01:08:45.920 --> 01:08:49.840
business because I'm the father one I'm about my father's business whatever

887
01:08:49.840 --> 01:08:54.880
whatever I'm doing and I have had this stronghold of

888
01:08:54.880 --> 01:08:58.080
I'm not where I'm supposed to be and I'm gonna miss it whatever I'm called to

889
01:08:58.080 --> 01:09:02.800
I'm gonna miss it somehow that has been like a big fear

890
01:09:02.800 --> 01:09:06.479
and that just came from church teaching like you got to get right with God you

891
01:09:06.479 --> 01:09:09.600
got to fast and pray or you're gonna miss the move of God

892
01:09:09.600 --> 01:09:15.279
but I was really like I'm gonna miss it and um

893
01:09:15.279 --> 01:09:19.600
when she said that and I just like soaked that in and talked about it and I

894
01:09:19.600 --> 01:09:22.960
was like tearful on the zoom call I was like

895
01:09:22.960 --> 01:09:26.880
you know like crying it really broke off of me

896
01:09:26.880 --> 01:09:31.359
and I asked the Lord for like new dreams to confirm it and that night

897
01:09:31.359 --> 01:09:35.439
I had two separate dreams and both of them were like complete dreams where I

898
01:09:35.439 --> 01:09:38.479
went from one oh I don't know what it was one of

899
01:09:38.479 --> 01:09:42.160
the dreams is I was supposed to be in a beauty pageant

900
01:09:42.160 --> 01:09:46.720
and I was supposed to be in a beauty pageant and I

901
01:09:47.439 --> 01:09:51.920
like was in it and I like walked my thing in my

902
01:09:51.920 --> 01:09:56.960
suit and I like walked my thing in my gown and I gave my speech and I came up

903
01:09:56.960 --> 01:10:01.840
and I didn't win like no it wasn't like any of that

904
01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:05.760
It was just that I like completed it and then my family was there and we were backstage and

905
01:10:05.760 --> 01:10:09.760
and we were talking or whatever and then I went to the another part of the dream

906
01:10:09.760 --> 01:10:15.280
and it was the complete dream that like ended at the end and I wasn't caught up in anything weird

907
01:10:15.280 --> 01:10:20.400
but that was the biggest deal to me was was to have a different dream like that so

908
01:10:21.200 --> 01:10:27.520
no no please do not chalk any of this up to like maturity or depth I think you could tell

909
01:10:27.520 --> 01:10:32.160
by the way I babble on that those two things are glaringly missing in my life.

910
01:10:33.040 --> 01:10:38.160
Not at all not at all remember what we talked about you really need to dream about vacations.

911
01:10:39.600 --> 01:10:40.960
You dream about vacations?

912
01:10:43.760 --> 01:10:47.280
No I need to.

913
01:10:49.600 --> 01:10:54.240
You know speaking of all of these dreams reminds me of you know the post that Carrie made about

914
01:10:54.240 --> 01:10:59.360
her dreams reminds me of yours Holly where you're like my whole life I've had these dreams or

915
01:10:59.360 --> 01:11:02.800
however long I don't remember how long you say you're just for years I've had these dreams and

916
01:11:02.800 --> 01:11:06.880
it always ends like this and I'm like lord and it's this this bone of contention you know you

917
01:11:06.880 --> 01:11:12.560
have to work you know we need to finish this thing and so Carrie you know posted you know

918
01:11:12.560 --> 01:11:17.840
that she'd had a dream you know for years you know about her new husband where you know she's

919
01:11:17.840 --> 01:11:24.880
always picking someone else and it drove her nuts you know and it was just it was just emotionally

920
01:11:25.440 --> 01:11:32.640
um straining for her and then so she's then she released it to the lord and she's like I'm just

921
01:11:32.640 --> 01:11:37.200
you know and just talk to her soul soul I'm gonna let go I don't know what it is you're hanging on

922
01:11:37.200 --> 01:11:42.480
to but I'm telling you as your lord and as your king this is how it is I'm believing the lord and

923
01:11:42.480 --> 01:11:48.800
the lord has declared this and therefore so it shall be and then she I think she asked the lord

924
01:11:49.680 --> 01:11:56.000
she uh I don't remember how how it ended up working out so oh she said that she thought

925
01:11:56.000 --> 01:12:01.920
that the dream that that would be it but um that she just wouldn't have that dream again

926
01:12:01.920 --> 01:12:08.400
but instead the lord did for her what he did for you Holly where she had the dream only this time

927
01:12:09.040 --> 01:12:15.280
the right thing came about and she's like oh my word he's pretty he's manifesting and talking to

928
01:12:15.280 --> 01:12:23.520
me that we're in full reconciliation that it comes full circle everything's closed all of the loose

929
01:12:23.520 --> 01:12:29.200
ends are tied the whole thing is done in the spirit and it's done by the blood of the lord

930
01:12:29.200 --> 01:12:34.480
so I think that that's really neat that both of y'all have a have that similar testimony so I

931
01:12:34.480 --> 01:12:38.640
asked the lord if this was different for me I didn't have like all of this other stuff going on

932
01:12:38.640 --> 01:12:44.560
that that I was that was always happening the same way and then at the end it and then eventually I

933
01:12:44.560 --> 01:12:49.280
asked the lord for a dream that it would close that it's not like that but I did have something

934
01:12:49.280 --> 01:12:55.280
that I asked the lord for recently and yesterday I think it was two days ago I asked the lord um if

935
01:12:55.280 --> 01:12:59.840
he would if he would interact with me in a particular way and if he would tell me something

936
01:13:00.480 --> 01:13:06.880
and I was not expecting it in the dream but he came to me in a dream and he told me what it is

937
01:13:06.880 --> 01:13:13.840
that I asked him for and I jolted awake I mean immediately and I was like that's it he told me

938
01:13:16.720 --> 01:13:22.400
I'm so excited so it's me all of these dreams that we're having and and how it is that the

939
01:13:22.400 --> 01:13:27.680
lord is just talking to all of us you know get more through through our dreams so I still have

940
01:13:27.680 --> 01:13:32.880
more in my dream life I'd like him to reconcile it anyway so we're I'm still praying through

941
01:13:32.880 --> 01:13:37.280
those still asking though we're not praying through but you know just asking lord okay lord

942
01:13:37.280 --> 01:13:43.280
you know I've moved on I've matured in my spiritual relationship and I'm asking am I in my belief

943
01:13:43.280 --> 01:13:50.560
system and I'm asking that my dreams follow that and to show me where my dreams are still manifesting

944
01:13:50.560 --> 01:13:58.240
areas of unbelief um so anyway but we get to all that so anything else before we go

945
01:14:01.120 --> 01:14:11.440
everybody good what's up it's good to see y'all good to see you and I guess we'll just meet back
