00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.960
Welcome to PATH session for October.

2
00:00:04.960 --> 00:00:07.440
We're just one day away from Yom Kippur.

3
00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:09.140
If you don't know what that is,

4
00:00:09.140 --> 00:00:11.440
I'll let you go ahead and go look that up.

5
00:00:11.440 --> 00:00:13.360
But it is considered the day of

6
00:00:13.360 --> 00:00:16.300
atonement by the Hebrews, by the Jews,

7
00:00:16.300 --> 00:00:21.920
and it happens 10 days later than Rosh Hashanah.

8
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:24.000
The head of the year, the new year,

9
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:28.420
and then there's a 10-day period of time,

10
00:00:28.420 --> 00:00:32.159
which is known as the days of repentance or the days of awe.

11
00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:34.520
That is a time of introspection.

12
00:00:34.520 --> 00:00:38.440
It's a time of coming apart and taking

13
00:00:38.440 --> 00:00:40.820
some time to really think about making

14
00:00:40.820 --> 00:00:44.400
amends or asking forgiveness or giving forgiveness.

15
00:00:44.400 --> 00:00:48.720
We invited all of you to participate in that after last Sunday.

16
00:00:48.720 --> 00:00:53.600
We said, hey, take some time after this teaching to be introspective,

17
00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:56.040
to really take a look at what's in your heart.

18
00:00:56.040 --> 00:00:58.260
We're going to continue to talk about what's in our heart,

19
00:00:58.260 --> 00:00:59.840
but in a different way tonight.

20
00:00:59.840 --> 00:01:03.200
As we head into what the Jews consider the day of atonement,

21
00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:05.280
we all know as Christians that the day of

22
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:08.840
atonement happened on the finished work of the cross.

23
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:12.480
That Jesus died for us and as us.

24
00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:15.560
But it's important that we understand that we need to

25
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:21.160
live in the victory that was established for us on that day.

26
00:01:21.160 --> 00:01:26.760
Jesus can't make you live in the victory of what was given to you,

27
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:29.220
what was purchased for you that day.

28
00:01:29.220 --> 00:01:35.460
We're going to talk about how our future is in our mouths tonight.

29
00:01:35.460 --> 00:01:37.500
We're going to do that in celebration of

30
00:01:37.500 --> 00:01:40.300
this beautiful year 5785 that we've entered into.

31
00:01:40.300 --> 00:01:42.940
If you did not get to see the Supernatural Saturday,

32
00:01:42.940 --> 00:01:47.740
where we dove into some meanings of 5785,

33
00:01:47.740 --> 00:01:49.900
I'm sure that there are a lot of prophetic voices

34
00:01:49.900 --> 00:01:52.140
out there that are saying a lot of different things.

35
00:01:52.140 --> 00:01:54.620
I'm sure that they're all similar in some way because you

36
00:01:54.620 --> 00:01:56.920
can't take those numbers and

37
00:01:56.920 --> 00:01:59.640
those meanings and make them mean something different.

38
00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:01.520
I'm sure that they're all similar.

39
00:02:01.520 --> 00:02:04.640
They might have dug into different aspects of

40
00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:08.880
the season that we're entering into or that we've entered into.

41
00:02:08.880 --> 00:02:11.240
But what I really want to focus on again

42
00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:14.040
tonight is that we are in the Peihei year.

43
00:02:14.040 --> 00:02:16.880
We're in the decade of the mouth, the 80s.

44
00:02:16.880 --> 00:02:20.520
Everyone say, hey, that lived through the 80s.

45
00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:22.340
The 80s were a good time,

46
00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:26.000
not for fashion, for everything else, a good time.

47
00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:29.040
Fashion, not so much.

48
00:02:29.040 --> 00:02:30.800
But we're in the 80s,

49
00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:32.560
that is the decade of the mouth,

50
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:35.840
and we are in the year of manifestation.

51
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:39.400
We're in the five, we're in the hay.

52
00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:42.040
We're in the year where we humble

53
00:02:42.040 --> 00:02:46.640
ourselves and we come into agreement with heaven,

54
00:02:46.640 --> 00:02:48.840
and we begin to manifest heaven on earth.

55
00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:50.200
Does that sound exciting to you?

56
00:02:50.220 --> 00:02:51.940
It sounds exciting to me.

57
00:02:51.940 --> 00:02:54.180
That year as well,

58
00:02:54.180 --> 00:02:57.460
it means behold, so that letter,

59
00:02:57.460 --> 00:02:59.240
that number, that symbol,

60
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:01.240
it means behold,

61
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:05.060
and that is defined as suddenly.

62
00:03:05.060 --> 00:03:09.340
All of you know that suddenly don't really happen suddenly, do they?

63
00:03:09.340 --> 00:03:13.140
There's a lot that leads up to the moment of manifestation.

64
00:03:13.140 --> 00:03:18.300
But it's not always something that you had anything to do with.

65
00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:21.520
Let's just sit there for a moment with Holy Spirit.

66
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:23.200
Holy Spirit, come.

67
00:03:23.200 --> 00:03:25.200
We know that you're in us and with us,

68
00:03:25.200 --> 00:03:26.400
that you're for us,

69
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:30.160
but we want you to speak to us and through us tonight.

70
00:03:30.160 --> 00:03:33.160
We're asking you to take control over this session,

71
00:03:33.160 --> 00:03:35.080
to help us to get revelation.

72
00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:41.960
Let the eyes of our heart be open to see what it is that God has for us tonight.

73
00:03:41.960 --> 00:03:43.840
This is a divine moment, you guys.

74
00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:45.960
We're never going to be in this moment ever again.

75
00:03:46.180 --> 00:03:48.500
Never.

76
00:03:48.500 --> 00:03:52.020
This group of people, this exact combination of people,

77
00:03:52.020 --> 00:03:54.580
in the places that you're in right now physically,

78
00:03:54.580 --> 00:04:01.340
technology has made it possible for us to come together,

79
00:04:01.340 --> 00:04:03.700
and it'll never be like this again.

80
00:04:03.700 --> 00:04:10.340
This combination, this way, this time, this moment will never pass again.

81
00:04:10.340 --> 00:04:11.660
So Lord, we thank you for that.

82
00:04:11.660 --> 00:04:14.700
And we realize that we are in a holy moment of revelation

83
00:04:14.700 --> 00:04:17.680
where you desire to upgrade us.

84
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:20.839
You desire to give us revelation that changes our lives.

85
00:04:20.839 --> 00:04:24.600
Where we've been stuck, we don't have to be stuck anymore.

86
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:26.840
So Lord, we thank you for that in advance,

87
00:04:26.840 --> 00:04:31.760
and we ask that every heart would be open,

88
00:04:31.760 --> 00:04:34.440
that the ears of our spirit and the eyes of our heart

89
00:04:34.440 --> 00:04:39.840
would be open to see and to hear what you are saying to your children.

90
00:04:39.840 --> 00:04:42.920
In Jesus' name, amen.

91
00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:46.340
All right, so we're in a moment of suddenly,

92
00:04:46.340 --> 00:04:49.180
but it's not necessarily something that you've worked towards.

93
00:04:49.180 --> 00:04:53.580
There's so much typology and symbolism in the Bible

94
00:04:53.580 --> 00:04:58.740
that talks about us getting to step into someone else's labor.

95
00:04:58.740 --> 00:05:00.740
Isn't that right?

96
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:05.800
Go ahead and put some scriptures up that come to mind when we're talking about that.

97
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:11.840
There are scriptures in Joel that talk about that, right?

98
00:05:11.840 --> 00:05:15.520
There are scriptures in Isaiah that talk about that.

99
00:05:15.520 --> 00:05:23.200
There's all types and shadows of us, this generation and the generations to come, being

100
00:05:23.200 --> 00:05:30.480
able to basically start on the ceiling, right?

101
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:34.880
Some people always say that, I want my ceiling to be their floor.

102
00:05:34.880 --> 00:05:39.120
Don't people say that all the time, especially in the more charismatic churches about the

103
00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:40.520
coming generations?

104
00:05:40.520 --> 00:05:47.440
Well, Hebrews, the great hall of fame of faith, tells us that those people paid a price that

105
00:05:47.440 --> 00:05:55.040
none of us may ever pay, of persecution, of loss, of war, all different types of things

106
00:05:55.040 --> 00:06:01.600
so that we could inherit the promises of God, am I wrong?

107
00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:10.000
It said that they left this earth not seeing with their human eyes the things that they

108
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:13.960
had been promised.

109
00:06:13.960 --> 00:06:20.640
It talks in the Bible about a generation that will reap where it has not sown, Amos

110
00:06:20.640 --> 00:06:23.100
chapter nine.

111
00:06:23.100 --> 00:06:29.040
It talks about going into vineyards that you didn't plant that are full of good wine.

112
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:34.440
It talks about living in houses that you did not build.

113
00:06:34.440 --> 00:06:35.440
What is that?

114
00:06:35.440 --> 00:06:36.440
That's suddenly moments.

115
00:06:37.320 --> 00:06:46.600
Those are moments when you are upgraded to places and to purposes that you do not deserve

116
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:47.840
and that you did not work for.

117
00:06:47.840 --> 00:06:54.800
If you're like, well, that's not fair, write this down.

118
00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:57.880
God is not fair.

119
00:06:57.880 --> 00:07:02.400
There is nothing fair about any of it.

120
00:07:02.400 --> 00:07:11.600
And if fair is your desire, if it is your objective, then following Jesus is not going

121
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:20.640
to be the right thing for you because it's not fair.

122
00:07:20.640 --> 00:07:24.480
It isn't.

123
00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:30.160
We are going to experience things that we do not deserve in a good way.

124
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:33.880
And while that may not seem fair to the people that did not get to see those things or did

125
00:07:33.880 --> 00:07:38.120
not get to participate in those things, that is not up for us to judge because God says

126
00:07:38.120 --> 00:07:41.720
my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts are higher than your thoughts.

127
00:07:41.720 --> 00:07:50.200
And so the earthly thinking around the word fair doesn't come into play.

128
00:07:50.200 --> 00:07:55.000
I mean, you guys, honestly, if, if, and you should be glad that God is not fair.

129
00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:57.960
He's just, he's a just God.

130
00:07:57.960 --> 00:07:59.880
He's a righteous God.

131
00:07:59.880 --> 00:08:01.640
He's a loving God.

132
00:08:01.640 --> 00:08:06.440
But if we want to measure fair, none of us would be in right standing with God.

133
00:08:06.440 --> 00:08:13.560
In fact, if it was fair and God's love and his provisions and his protection was given

134
00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:20.120
out to the people that need it the most, I don't think any of us would be on that list.

135
00:08:20.120 --> 00:08:25.920
Because I know that all of us sitting here right now can think of a new story or something

136
00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:32.080
that we have seen in our lives that talk about people that you will never meet, probably

137
00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:38.799
in real life, that if God was only doing things based on need and based on fairness, they

138
00:08:38.799 --> 00:08:40.400
would all be at the top of the list.

139
00:08:40.400 --> 00:08:47.200
And we would be way, way, way, way down the list somewhere here in America, agreed?

140
00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:52.520
Even the people tonight that are picking up the pieces of their lives because of these

141
00:08:52.520 --> 00:08:56.120
hurricanes that have blown through.

142
00:08:56.120 --> 00:09:01.680
And at the end of tonight, we will pray for a few moments, and we have been praying, and

143
00:09:01.680 --> 00:09:09.240
we thank God that the things that have happened there were not the devastation that was forecasted.

144
00:09:09.240 --> 00:09:14.400
Praise the Lord, but there was devastation.

145
00:09:14.400 --> 00:09:19.400
I just talked to my friend that lives in Bradenton, Florida, which is one of the places that was

146
00:09:19.400 --> 00:09:26.960
heavy hit, Sarasota coastline, Bradenton, the Anna Maria Islands, and there's people

147
00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:30.000
that have lost everything, okay?

148
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:33.000
There are people that have lost their homes.

149
00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:38.040
There are people that have lost pets and that have lost businesses and all different types

150
00:09:38.040 --> 00:09:39.040
of things there.

151
00:09:39.040 --> 00:09:40.600
So we will talk about that.

152
00:09:40.600 --> 00:09:47.600
But let's not put God in that category of human fairness, okay?

153
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:54.200
And so back to what scripture says about us being able to step into suddenlies.

154
00:09:54.200 --> 00:09:59.680
So we're living in a year that has been set aside, that has been cast.

155
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:07.240
As a year, when the curtain comes up of suddenlies, Amos 913, and suddenly the

156
00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:13.720
Reaper overtakes the plowman blessings pouring out so fast, it's making your

157
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:14.280
head spin.

158
00:10:16.320 --> 00:10:20.340
Now, once again, that may not be anything that you've worked hard for, not anything

159
00:10:20.340 --> 00:10:26.720
that you were expecting and not anything that you feel is deserved because of what

160
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:28.240
you have done to merit it.

161
00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:35.280
Oftentimes, suddenlies, while they happen suddenly to someone, it is because of

162
00:10:35.280 --> 00:10:39.480
someone else's faith, someone else's perseverance, someone else's hard work,

163
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:41.480
someone else's you fill in the blank.

164
00:10:44.400 --> 00:10:47.880
In fact, I would venture to say that each and every one of you is sitting here

165
00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:53.480
partaking of the beautiful joy of salvation because someone in your history,

166
00:10:53.640 --> 00:10:57.400
who you probably never even met, interceded for you.

167
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:01.280
You are the fruit of their prayers.

168
00:11:01.560 --> 00:11:08.440
They didn't get to see that manifestation, but you get to live it.

169
00:11:10.080 --> 00:11:13.480
And you may know who that person is, a grandma or great grandma, a grandpa, a

170
00:11:13.480 --> 00:11:15.640
parent, but you also may not know.

171
00:11:15.800 --> 00:11:18.640
You may think that you're a first generation Christian in your lineage.

172
00:11:18.640 --> 00:11:20.880
Raise your hand if you think you're a first generation Christian.

173
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:27.040
Raise your hand if, as far as you know, you're the first person in your family to

174
00:11:27.080 --> 00:11:30.040
surrender your life and worship Jesus.

175
00:11:31.920 --> 00:11:33.840
Let's see those hands.

176
00:11:34.880 --> 00:11:35.960
Let's see them go up.

177
00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:41.840
Let's see them.

178
00:11:41.880 --> 00:11:42.520
Let's see them.

179
00:11:42.560 --> 00:11:43.240
Let's see them.

180
00:11:43.720 --> 00:11:44.800
Hands still going up.

181
00:11:49.280 --> 00:11:49.800
All right.

182
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:56.920
Now, while I'm so excited that you are the first member of your family in your

183
00:11:56.920 --> 00:12:01.000
knowledge to follow Christ, and I believe that you are a kinsman redeemer, and I

184
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:02.400
don't want to take that away from you.

185
00:12:03.040 --> 00:12:06.200
I want to tell you that somewhere back in your lineage and legacy,

186
00:12:06.200 --> 00:12:07.440
someone was a friend of God.

187
00:12:09.520 --> 00:12:10.960
Somebody was God's friend.

188
00:12:11.400 --> 00:12:16.520
And that is why you are here today, raising your hand that you have made the

189
00:12:16.520 --> 00:12:18.760
best decision of your life to follow Jesus.

190
00:12:19.800 --> 00:12:20.760
You are the fruit.

191
00:12:23.080 --> 00:12:25.520
And maybe someday you'll find out who that is before heaven.

192
00:12:25.880 --> 00:12:29.160
There's all kinds of lineage, uh, websites.

193
00:12:29.160 --> 00:12:31.120
In fact, I was going down that rabbit hole today.

194
00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:34.840
Cause someone gave me a link and I was like, let me just take a look because

195
00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:39.040
before today, today, I didn't know what my great great grandparents names were.

196
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:39.960
I know now.

197
00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:41.800
Okay.

198
00:12:42.840 --> 00:12:44.800
We've got some crazy names in this family.

199
00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:48.600
It's like, did your mama name you that really Ebeneezer?

200
00:12:48.920 --> 00:12:49.960
I'm not really sure.

201
00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:57.160
So that being said, somebody, somebody was a friend of God and

202
00:12:57.160 --> 00:12:58.520
we thank God for those people.

203
00:12:59.280 --> 00:13:03.000
And so you are, you are the fruit of those prayers.

204
00:13:03.520 --> 00:13:04.760
They never got to see you.

205
00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:08.600
Jesus on the cross.

206
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:15.360
It said that he endured the suffering and the shame because of what the

207
00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:17.400
joy that was set before him.

208
00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:18.840
What was that?

209
00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:20.480
He got a glimpse of all of us, y'all.

210
00:13:22.280 --> 00:13:26.160
I believe in that moment, he glimpsed all that were to come.

211
00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:34.440
And that brought great joy to him because remember he was all God, but he was also

212
00:13:34.440 --> 00:13:38.560
all man and the man part of him definitely did not want to do what it was doing.

213
00:13:41.040 --> 00:13:42.000
Isn't that exciting?

214
00:13:42.400 --> 00:13:47.160
And so someone someday is going to have a suddenly because of you, but right now I

215
00:13:47.160 --> 00:13:51.440
want to talk about the sudden leaves that we're going to experience, even just in

216
00:13:51.440 --> 00:13:58.120
this calendar year, because of somebody else and specifically because of Jesus

217
00:13:58.120 --> 00:14:03.080
on that cross, but from everybody else after that, that was an obedience to the

218
00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:04.520
things that God asked them to do.

219
00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:06.920
And us being able to walk into those harvests.

220
00:14:06.960 --> 00:14:08.120
Are you guys excited about that?

221
00:14:08.160 --> 00:14:09.400
Let's go ahead and read.

222
00:14:11.160 --> 00:14:12.080
Actually, I want to read it.

223
00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:14.560
I want to read it from the message translation, because I just like the way

224
00:14:14.560 --> 00:14:16.000
it says, let's read the suddenly scripture.

225
00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:20.760
I call it the suddenly scripture because I like it to be called that in my mind.

226
00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:24.720
So let's go to Amos chapter nine, please.

227
00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:28.360
If you would remember, I'm going to go with the message.

228
00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:30.560
If you don't like the message, you're offended by the message.

229
00:14:30.920 --> 00:14:31.840
I'm not sorry.

230
00:14:33.560 --> 00:14:34.520
I'm just trying to help you.

231
00:14:34.520 --> 00:14:35.560
I'm just trying to help you.

232
00:14:35.640 --> 00:14:37.320
I'm just trying to get a point across.

233
00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:40.480
You can read in the King James, the new King James, the NIV.

234
00:14:40.680 --> 00:14:45.920
You can read in the Sanskrit scrolls if you'd like, but I'm trying to get a

235
00:14:45.920 --> 00:14:48.840
specific point across here and I'm going to read in the message.

236
00:14:49.080 --> 00:14:50.520
You're like, Jackie, why did you have to say that?

237
00:14:50.520 --> 00:14:56.640
Because people email me and tell me, don't you know that that translation is heresy.

238
00:14:57.640 --> 00:14:59.240
I'm like, Jackie, why did you have to say that?

239
00:14:59.240 --> 00:15:05.000
Because people email me and tell me, don't you know that that translation is heresy.

240
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:04.480
That's why. So I'm just letting you know, I'm reading because there's some specific wording

241
00:15:04.480 --> 00:15:11.040
here. And remember, this is, this is an interpretation, not a direct translation.

242
00:15:11.040 --> 00:15:22.000
And so here we go. All right. Chapter nine, verse 13. Let's start at verse 13.

243
00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:27.680
It says, yes, indeed. It won't be long now. God's decree.

244
00:15:29.920 --> 00:15:35.360
Things are going to happen so fast. Your head will swim one thing fast on the heels of the other.

245
00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:40.400
You won't be able to keep up and everywhere you look blessings, blessings, like wine,

246
00:15:40.400 --> 00:15:45.040
pouring off the mountains and hills. I will make everything right again for my people.

247
00:15:45.040 --> 00:15:49.360
They will build their, they they'll rebuild their ruined cities. They'll plant vineyards

248
00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:54.080
and drink good wine. They'll work their gardens and eat fresh vegetables. And I will plant them

249
00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:58.880
on their own land and they will never again be uprooted from the land I've given them.

250
00:15:58.880 --> 00:16:09.680
God, your God says so. That is known as the suddenly scripture in my mind.

251
00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:18.400
And every time I see nine 13 anywhere. I'm reminded that God does things in our lives

252
00:16:18.400 --> 00:16:24.720
suddenly. And that's why it's always good to be expectantly prudent preparation of God's

253
00:16:24.720 --> 00:16:32.480
goodness in your life. What is expectantly preparing also known as waiting. The word

254
00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:37.600
weight in the Bible is defined as expectantly preparing. And so if you're always expectantly

255
00:16:37.600 --> 00:16:42.720
prepared for what, for God's goodness, God's goodness, and what in everything and anything.

256
00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:47.200
Whatever he's promised you, whatever he said, whatever you hope in your heart of hearts,

257
00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:51.440
your heart's desire to see happen in your lifetime, be prepared for those things.

258
00:16:53.280 --> 00:16:58.560
Because what we are prepared for and what we believe can happen happens.

259
00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:03.280
Okay. And so let's talk about our future being in our mouths

260
00:17:05.040 --> 00:17:11.040
because we're in the year of the pay. Hey, we want to talk about how our words are being

261
00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:13.920
weighed differently this year. Do you believe that?

262
00:17:15.920 --> 00:17:21.359
Okay. So we want to talk about how our words, and I wrote this down, our words

263
00:17:23.359 --> 00:17:29.920
are going to hit differently this year. Okay. I believe that our, our words matter and they

264
00:17:29.920 --> 00:17:33.760
always matter. You guys, your words always matter. There's so much scripture in the Bible

265
00:17:33.760 --> 00:17:38.560
about your mouth and the words that come out of it. And I'll read a few of those scriptures just

266
00:17:38.560 --> 00:17:45.760
because I believe that. Anytime God says, Hey, this is what this year is about specifically.

267
00:17:46.880 --> 00:17:53.440
Then we have to understand that our participation in that is going to be weighed differently.

268
00:17:53.440 --> 00:18:00.000
Isn't it? Now, this is not an old fashioned church service where you're going to be afraid

269
00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:06.880
to say anything negative ever. And you're going to have toxic positivity and, you know,

270
00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:10.720
positive mental attitude. That is not the fruit of tonight's session.

271
00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:15.920
The fruits of tonight's session is to understand that words come from identity.

272
00:18:19.120 --> 00:18:25.040
What we believe is what we become and what we become. We attract, remember the law of attraction,

273
00:18:25.040 --> 00:18:28.400
the biblical law of attraction that you saw in the heart work. And some of you are still in

274
00:18:28.400 --> 00:18:32.800
the heart work because we've invited phase one and phase two to join us tonight. Remember the

275
00:18:32.800 --> 00:18:38.720
revealing for healing cycle. And we're going to talk a little bit about where these words that

276
00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:45.120
come out of our mouth come from. How did they get in our heart in the first place? That's week two.

277
00:18:45.120 --> 00:18:51.360
That's week two of your heart work, understanding the heart, understanding how did that get there?

278
00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:56.880
That's important. And we'll do a little bit of that work. Then we're gonna do a little bit of

279
00:18:57.440 --> 00:19:02.000
the pruning and purging that you see in this revealing for healing cycle, a little bit of

280
00:19:02.000 --> 00:19:10.800
heart work in that area so that we can be ready to speak, not just our future, but the future of

281
00:19:10.800 --> 00:19:14.880
those that are around us in this year, in this suddenly year. Does that sound good? You guys

282
00:19:14.880 --> 00:19:28.720
ready to be activated in this? All right. All right, guys. All right. I'm just trying to see

283
00:19:29.440 --> 00:19:35.440
where I want to go first. I think where I'm going to go first is I'm just going to read for you

284
00:19:35.440 --> 00:19:42.480
some of the scriptures that have been aggregated here about your words, just to kind of give you

285
00:19:42.480 --> 00:19:46.480
an idea of how many scriptures in the Bible. I'm not going to read all of them. There's way too

286
00:19:46.480 --> 00:19:52.800
many to read, but kind of give you an idea about how powerful your words are. God said we were

287
00:19:52.800 --> 00:19:57.440
created in his image and he spoke everything that you see into existence with his words,

288
00:19:57.440 --> 00:19:59.280
except for you.

289
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:05.000
You were created intentionally by God's loving hands.

290
00:20:08.120 --> 00:20:11.040
Everything else, the cosmos, the sun, the stars,

291
00:20:11.040 --> 00:20:16.040
the moon, the firmaments, all of the things, the galaxies.

292
00:20:17.080 --> 00:20:18.960
Do you know that they said that there's as many stars

293
00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:20.120
as there are grains of sand?

294
00:20:20.120 --> 00:20:22.280
Have you guys ever got sand stuck to your foot?

295
00:20:22.280 --> 00:20:24.440
There's probably a gazillion grains of sand

296
00:20:24.440 --> 00:20:25.520
right on your foot.

297
00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:27.640
How in the world?

298
00:20:28.560 --> 00:20:33.560
All of that spoke into existence by God's mouth, his words.

299
00:20:37.080 --> 00:20:37.920
Right?

300
00:20:39.120 --> 00:20:40.840
That's crazy town.

301
00:20:40.840 --> 00:20:43.720
Just thinking about that hurts my brain.

302
00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:48.160
It hurts it.

303
00:20:48.160 --> 00:20:50.960
Okay, so if we've been created in his image,

304
00:20:50.960 --> 00:20:54.040
then we also carry creative power in our words, do we not?

305
00:20:55.560 --> 00:20:57.560
Have we been created in the image of God?

306
00:20:58.640 --> 00:21:02.520
And if his words, it says that when God says it,

307
00:21:03.840 --> 00:21:04.920
it happens.

308
00:21:04.920 --> 00:21:06.320
That's why he can't lie.

309
00:21:09.000 --> 00:21:12.360
And you're like, well, but why is it not manifest

310
00:21:12.360 --> 00:21:13.680
immediately when God says it?

311
00:21:13.680 --> 00:21:16.240
God gives me promises, they don't immediately manifest

312
00:21:16.240 --> 00:21:17.600
because we already talked about the first,

313
00:21:17.600 --> 00:21:18.560
second and third heavens.

314
00:21:18.560 --> 00:21:21.200
We talked about warfare, spiritual warfare.

315
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:23.920
We also talked about partnering with God's word

316
00:21:23.920 --> 00:21:26.760
to walk it out because we are the manifestors

317
00:21:26.960 --> 00:21:28.640
of a lot of what God tells us.

318
00:21:29.760 --> 00:21:31.640
Does that all make sense to everyone?

319
00:21:32.840 --> 00:21:35.960
Okay, so let's just read a few of these scriptures

320
00:21:35.960 --> 00:21:36.800
about our words.

321
00:21:38.640 --> 00:21:40.960
Whoever would love life and see good days

322
00:21:40.960 --> 00:21:42.720
must keep their tongue from evil

323
00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:45.160
and their lips from deceitful speech.

324
00:21:45.160 --> 00:21:46.320
That's first Peter 3.10.

325
00:21:46.320 --> 00:21:48.800
Colossians 4.6 says, let your conversation

326
00:21:48.800 --> 00:21:52.040
be always full of grace, seasoned with salt

327
00:21:52.040 --> 00:21:54.920
so that you may know how to answer everyone.

328
00:21:54.920 --> 00:21:59.240
Ephesians 4.29 says, do not let any unwholesome talk

329
00:21:59.240 --> 00:22:00.080
come out of your mouth.

330
00:22:00.080 --> 00:22:01.800
So that means unhealthy right there.

331
00:22:01.800 --> 00:22:05.160
It means, I actually, I'm gonna use this scripture later.

332
00:22:05.160 --> 00:22:06.880
So I'll talk to you about it later.

333
00:22:06.880 --> 00:22:09.360
But only what is helpful for building others up

334
00:22:09.360 --> 00:22:10.720
according to their needs,

335
00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:13.240
so that it may benefit those who hear you.

336
00:22:14.280 --> 00:22:15.240
You guys hear that?

337
00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:18.480
Do not let anything unwholesome come out of your mouth,

338
00:22:18.480 --> 00:22:20.960
but only what is helpful for building others up

339
00:22:20.960 --> 00:22:22.440
according to their needs,

340
00:22:22.440 --> 00:22:24.520
that it may benefit those who listen.

341
00:22:25.080 --> 00:22:29.400
Proverbs 10.19, sin is not ending by multiplying words.

342
00:22:29.400 --> 00:22:32.200
It means sin doesn't go away because you talk a lot.

343
00:22:33.720 --> 00:22:35.800
But the prudent hold their tongues.

344
00:22:35.800 --> 00:22:37.240
You guys, I just wanna tell you something.

345
00:22:37.240 --> 00:22:39.160
Really the definition of that scripture is this.

346
00:22:39.160 --> 00:22:41.040
People know what's wrong with them.

347
00:22:41.040 --> 00:22:43.080
They need to know what's right with them.

348
00:22:44.400 --> 00:22:45.960
Write that down.

349
00:22:45.960 --> 00:22:47.640
People already know what's wrong with them.

350
00:22:47.640 --> 00:22:50.120
You're not gonna keep them from sinning

351
00:22:50.120 --> 00:22:52.320
by pointing the finger at them

352
00:22:52.400 --> 00:22:54.320
and telling them who they ought to be.

353
00:22:55.520 --> 00:22:58.880
If you wanna use your mouth with someone

354
00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:03.440
who's stuck in sin, then tell them who they could be.

355
00:23:03.440 --> 00:23:05.680
Build them up, find the gold in them.

356
00:23:05.680 --> 00:23:09.400
Proverbs 15.4, the soothing tongue is a tree of life,

357
00:23:09.400 --> 00:23:11.960
but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit.

358
00:23:12.840 --> 00:23:15.560
Proverbs 15.28, you notice that a lot of these scriptures

359
00:23:15.560 --> 00:23:18.200
about the tongue are in the book of wisdom, Proverbs.

360
00:23:19.080 --> 00:23:21.720
Proverbs 15.28, the heart of the righteous

361
00:23:21.720 --> 00:23:23.440
weighs its answers.

362
00:23:24.520 --> 00:23:25.360
What does that mean?

363
00:23:25.360 --> 00:23:27.080
That means slow to talk, y'all.

364
00:23:28.880 --> 00:23:33.880
Weighs its answers, processes what it's about to say.

365
00:23:35.440 --> 00:23:37.320
The heart of the righteous weighs its answers,

366
00:23:37.320 --> 00:23:40.480
but the mouth of the wicked gushes evil.

367
00:23:42.360 --> 00:23:43.920
Yikes.

368
00:23:43.920 --> 00:23:47.600
Proverbs 17.9, whoever would foster love

369
00:23:47.600 --> 00:23:49.960
covers over an offense,

370
00:23:49.960 --> 00:23:54.080
but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends.

371
00:23:55.080 --> 00:23:56.080
What does that mean?

372
00:23:56.080 --> 00:23:57.680
That means that just because you see it

373
00:23:57.680 --> 00:23:59.280
doesn't mean you need to say it.

374
00:24:01.520 --> 00:24:02.360
All right?

375
00:24:03.440 --> 00:24:05.200
Doesn't mean you need to repeat it.

376
00:24:06.200 --> 00:24:07.560
This is about gossiping.

377
00:24:07.560 --> 00:24:09.560
This is about judgments, about criticism.

378
00:24:09.560 --> 00:24:11.960
We'll get into all that here in a little while.

379
00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:14.960
What goes into someone's mouth does not defile them.

380
00:24:14.960 --> 00:24:17.640
That word defile means ruin, it means spoil.

381
00:24:19.240 --> 00:24:20.800
But what comes out of their mouth,

382
00:24:20.800 --> 00:24:23.400
that is what spoils things.

383
00:24:24.240 --> 00:24:27.880
That's what destroys things, Matthew 15.11.

384
00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:31.720
Proverbs 21.23, those who guard their mouths

385
00:24:31.720 --> 00:24:34.880
and their tongues keep themselves from calamity.

386
00:24:36.000 --> 00:24:39.080
James says that your tongue kindles a lot of trouble.

387
00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:43.800
It makes a big fire, right?

388
00:24:43.840 --> 00:24:44.760
Go to the book of James.

389
00:24:44.760 --> 00:24:46.440
I'm not gonna go to the book of James right now,

390
00:24:46.440 --> 00:24:50.080
but it talks about how this tiny little part of you

391
00:24:50.080 --> 00:24:52.240
can make big trouble for you.

392
00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:57.240
Proverbs 26.20 says, without wood, a fire goes out.

393
00:24:58.080 --> 00:24:59.720
And without a gossip,

394
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:02.660
A quarrel dies down.

395
00:25:04.300 --> 00:25:06.920
Proverbs 31, 26.

396
00:25:06.920 --> 00:25:08.560
She speaks with wisdom

397
00:25:08.560 --> 00:25:11.040
and faithful instruction is on her tongue.

398
00:25:11.040 --> 00:25:12.200
Who's that talking about y'all?

399
00:25:12.200 --> 00:25:13.580
That's Proverbs 31.

400
00:25:14.960 --> 00:25:18.600
That's the Proverbs 31 depiction of the divine feminine.

401
00:25:18.600 --> 00:25:20.840
She speaks with wisdom

402
00:25:20.840 --> 00:25:23.560
and faithful instruction is on her tongue.

403
00:25:23.560 --> 00:25:25.320
Psalm 34, 13.

404
00:25:25.320 --> 00:25:26.560
In fact, I just want to say something.

405
00:25:26.560 --> 00:25:29.520
There's a lot of scriptures about men and about them,

406
00:25:29.600 --> 00:25:32.800
you know, being righteous and speaking righteous words,

407
00:25:32.800 --> 00:25:35.760
but there are a lot of scriptures about women

408
00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:41.440
using their mouths to tear down their houses

409
00:25:42.600 --> 00:25:45.840
and their families, okay?

410
00:25:45.840 --> 00:25:49.600
Nagging, all different types of things.

411
00:25:49.600 --> 00:25:51.960
Not following godly precepts,

412
00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:54.960
which is the law of kindness being in your tongue.

413
00:25:54.960 --> 00:25:55.800
It says that,

414
00:25:55.800 --> 00:25:59.600
I think it says something like a foolish woman,

415
00:26:01.000 --> 00:26:03.440
a righteous woman builds up her house,

416
00:26:03.440 --> 00:26:05.300
but a foolish woman tears it down.

417
00:26:05.300 --> 00:26:07.760
And then it's indicative of her tearing it down

418
00:26:07.760 --> 00:26:10.680
by not following godly precepts,

419
00:26:10.680 --> 00:26:14.700
including the law of love being in her mouth, right?

420
00:26:14.700 --> 00:26:15.620
So tearing down.

421
00:26:15.620 --> 00:26:17.800
We think of tearing people down.

422
00:26:17.800 --> 00:26:19.600
If you think of someone getting torn down,

423
00:26:19.600 --> 00:26:21.700
what is immediately the thing you think of?

424
00:26:21.700 --> 00:26:23.080
How did they get torn down?

425
00:26:23.080 --> 00:26:25.820
Like, oh man, they got torn down.

426
00:26:29.640 --> 00:26:32.920
They got torn down by someone calling them out, right?

427
00:26:32.920 --> 00:26:35.320
It was with someone's verbal attack

428
00:26:35.320 --> 00:26:37.400
that they got torn down, okay?

429
00:26:37.400 --> 00:26:40.120
Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from telling lies.

430
00:26:40.120 --> 00:26:41.960
Psalms 34, 13.

431
00:26:41.960 --> 00:26:45.520
Psalms 141.3 says, set a guard over my mouth, Lord.

432
00:26:45.520 --> 00:26:48.040
Keep watch over the door of my lips.

433
00:26:49.500 --> 00:26:52.520
Titus 3, 1 and 2 says, remind the people

434
00:26:52.560 --> 00:26:54.760
to be subject to rulers and authorities,

435
00:26:54.760 --> 00:26:57.960
to be obedient, to be ready to do whatever is good

436
00:26:57.960 --> 00:27:02.160
and to slander no one, to be peaceable and considerate

437
00:27:02.160 --> 00:27:04.640
and always to be gentle towards everyone.

438
00:27:06.240 --> 00:27:07.400
Y'all, I'm in trouble.

439
00:27:09.040 --> 00:27:12.360
Jeez, we're all in trouble.

440
00:27:12.360 --> 00:27:14.800
Proverbs 18, 20 and 21.

441
00:27:14.800 --> 00:27:18.120
From the fruit of their mouth, a person's stomach is filled.

442
00:27:18.120 --> 00:27:21.760
With the harvest of their lips, they are satisfied.

443
00:27:21.760 --> 00:27:23.820
The tongue has the power of life and death

444
00:27:23.820 --> 00:27:26.760
and those who love it will eat its fruit.

445
00:27:26.760 --> 00:27:29.960
Guys, that scripture really means they that love to talk

446
00:27:29.960 --> 00:27:31.660
will eat the fruit of their words.

447
00:27:32.760 --> 00:27:34.120
I want you to raise your hand and be honest.

448
00:27:34.120 --> 00:27:37.440
If you just love to talk, you got detention in school

449
00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:40.280
because you were talking when you weren't supposed to.

450
00:27:40.280 --> 00:27:42.320
You were a chatty Kathy.

451
00:27:42.320 --> 00:27:45.220
You were a chatty Ken.

452
00:27:46.120 --> 00:27:47.540
Kathy and Ken.

453
00:27:47.540 --> 00:27:48.640
I actually know a married couple

454
00:27:48.640 --> 00:27:50.960
that were named Kathy and Ken.

455
00:27:50.960 --> 00:27:52.160
Let's see the hands.

456
00:27:53.040 --> 00:27:54.080
You were talking.

457
00:27:57.760 --> 00:27:59.240
Talk, talk, talk, talk, talk.

458
00:28:01.160 --> 00:28:02.200
Love to talk.

459
00:28:06.080 --> 00:28:07.880
On the phone, talking to your friends.

460
00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:09.920
Talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk.

461
00:28:13.400 --> 00:28:14.720
Got the gift of communication.

462
00:28:14.720 --> 00:28:15.760
It's not a bad thing.

463
00:28:16.840 --> 00:28:18.320
I wanna see those hands.

464
00:28:19.320 --> 00:28:23.240
Quite a lot of people are saying that they are not talkers

465
00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:24.400
and that's interesting.

466
00:28:25.560 --> 00:28:29.240
But we do have enough people with their hands up saying,

467
00:28:29.240 --> 00:28:31.440
there's 27 of you with your hands up

468
00:28:31.440 --> 00:28:33.480
saying that you're 28 now.

469
00:28:34.440 --> 00:28:38.000
Someone got convicted of lying and now there's 29.

470
00:28:39.880 --> 00:28:40.880
I'm just joking.

471
00:28:42.140 --> 00:28:43.920
Now there's 32.

472
00:28:43.920 --> 00:28:46.920
The conviction of the Lord is here.

473
00:28:46.920 --> 00:28:47.840
What's happening?

474
00:28:48.680 --> 00:28:50.460
Let's see, there's 35 now.

475
00:28:51.760 --> 00:28:55.220
Some people are like define talker, Jackie.

476
00:28:57.720 --> 00:28:58.560
All right.

477
00:28:59.640 --> 00:29:02.160
36, 36 people with their hands up.

478
00:29:02.160 --> 00:29:06.480
This scripture is saying that if you love to talk,

479
00:29:06.480 --> 00:29:07.520
you need to be careful.

480
00:29:07.520 --> 00:29:09.020
If you have that gift of communication,

481
00:29:09.020 --> 00:29:12.360
you need to be careful because life and death

482
00:29:12.360 --> 00:29:15.160
are in the power of your speech,

483
00:29:15.160 --> 00:29:17.480
of your communication, of your language.

484
00:29:17.520 --> 00:29:20.360
And if you love to talk, you're gonna eat its fruit.

485
00:29:20.360 --> 00:29:23.280
And why does it say that about people who love it,

486
00:29:23.280 --> 00:29:24.360
love to talk?

487
00:29:24.360 --> 00:29:27.560
Because you and I both know that if you're a talker

488
00:29:27.560 --> 00:29:30.480
and you talk a lot, you're more likely

489
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:31.680
than someone who's not a talker

490
00:29:31.680 --> 00:29:33.480
to say something you shouldn't, huh?

491
00:29:35.440 --> 00:29:36.480
Right?

492
00:29:36.480 --> 00:29:38.040
Am I right?

493
00:29:38.040 --> 00:29:40.180
Foot and mouth disease, anybody else?

494
00:29:40.180 --> 00:29:41.320
I'm lowering all your hands,

495
00:29:41.320 --> 00:29:43.000
all the people that said you love to talk.

496
00:29:43.000 --> 00:29:45.520
And even those of you that don't love to talk,

497
00:29:45.520 --> 00:29:47.600
but do talk, raise your hand

498
00:29:47.600 --> 00:29:52.600
if you have said things that you shouldn't have said.

499
00:29:54.520 --> 00:29:56.320
You're just going along, you're talking,

500
00:29:56.320 --> 00:29:59.280
then all of a sudden, oh, I shouldn't have said that.

501
00:29:59.280 --> 00:30:00.480
Maybe you told somebody.

502
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:02.520
else's secret accidentally. Oh, so-and-so's pregnant. Oh, you

503
00:30:02.520 --> 00:30:05.840
didn't know that? Oops, didn't mean to say it. Why'd you say

504
00:30:05.840 --> 00:30:11.240
it? Because you were talking too much. That's why. Right? You're

505
00:30:11.240 --> 00:30:14.480
talking and talking and talking and you say something unwholesome.

506
00:30:15.240 --> 00:30:21.160
You say something that you shouldn't say. Right? You bad

507
00:30:21.160 --> 00:30:27.520
mouth someone or you talk about something that the other person

508
00:30:27.520 --> 00:30:29.920
you're talking to finds offensive. Anyone ever been in a

509
00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:32.160
conversation with someone that you just met and everything's

510
00:30:32.160 --> 00:30:34.960
going great. You met them, you're talking to them,

511
00:30:34.960 --> 00:30:39.320
everything's great. But you're a talker. So you start talking.

512
00:30:39.560 --> 00:30:42.600
And if you're like me, you're an awkward talker. And you start

513
00:30:42.600 --> 00:30:44.760
talking when things get awkward. And then all of a sudden you

514
00:30:44.760 --> 00:30:47.600
find that you've said something that you never meant to say, but

515
00:30:47.600 --> 00:30:49.400
you said it because you ran out of things to say and then it

516
00:30:49.400 --> 00:30:51.520
just popped into your head and out of your mouth. And now

517
00:30:51.520 --> 00:30:54.440
you've offended this person that you're talking to. Anybody else?

518
00:30:54.640 --> 00:30:56.680
You're just talking away and then you're like, well, you

519
00:30:56.680 --> 00:31:00.040
know, yeah, it's hard here with the election season in America,

520
00:31:00.040 --> 00:31:02.920
but you know, could be worse. We could live in Canada. And the

521
00:31:02.920 --> 00:31:06.200
next thing that they say is, I'm from Canada. You're like, Oh,

522
00:31:07.560 --> 00:31:23.360
oh, no. Am I right? I want someone to be like, Oh, no, I'm

523
00:31:23.840 --> 00:31:26.800
I want someone to put up in the chat the last time that you put

524
00:31:26.800 --> 00:31:30.920
your foot in your mouth. What did? What did you do? What did

525
00:31:30.920 --> 00:31:35.880
you do? If someone wants to unmute themselves and very

526
00:31:35.880 --> 00:31:38.360
briefly tell us about the last time they put their foot in the

527
00:31:38.360 --> 00:31:44.200
mouth, we'd be more than happy to hear your confession. This is

528
00:31:44.200 --> 00:31:46.600
the activation part, you guys, we've got to get ahold of this.

529
00:31:53.960 --> 00:32:01.640
Hello, I actually sent a message to a older Christian lady

530
00:32:01.640 --> 00:32:06.280
because at the time, my sister and I weren't getting on and

531
00:32:06.320 --> 00:32:12.560
there were issues. And so I sent this SMS to thinking I was

532
00:32:12.560 --> 00:32:16.680
sending it to my friend and I'd sent it to my sister. So it's

533
00:32:16.680 --> 00:32:21.320
Yes. Yes. Anybody else? You guys, the worst thing that you

534
00:32:21.320 --> 00:32:27.800
can do when you're upset about something is open your mouth. It

535
00:32:27.800 --> 00:32:31.320
is the worst thing that you can do, right? Yes. Because the

536
00:32:31.320 --> 00:32:34.280
chances of something coming out of there that you cannot take

537
00:32:34.280 --> 00:32:38.200
back and that you are not going to want to have said later,

538
00:32:38.240 --> 00:32:40.840
you're not going to want to have said later, you're not going to

539
00:32:40.840 --> 00:32:43.520
want to have said later, you're not going to want to have said

540
00:32:43.920 --> 00:32:47.480
and that you are not going to want to have said later is good.

541
00:32:47.880 --> 00:32:51.360
The chance is good. And for those of you that maybe you're

542
00:32:51.360 --> 00:32:54.120
not angry in the moment, but you're just angry in general

543
00:32:54.160 --> 00:32:56.920
towards someone or something. And you just can't really be

544
00:32:56.920 --> 00:32:59.160
trusted to talk about that subject. Because if that subject

545
00:32:59.160 --> 00:33:01.560
comes up, there's so much resentment in your heart towards

546
00:33:01.560 --> 00:33:05.280
that person, or that thing, that you're just going to say things

547
00:33:05.280 --> 00:33:09.160
that are very unwholesome. Right? You're going to say

548
00:33:09.160 --> 00:33:12.120
things that here I have the definition of unwholesome,

549
00:33:12.120 --> 00:33:16.440
unhealthy, bad for the well being of the body, mind and

550
00:33:16.440 --> 00:33:21.520
spirit of the person that's hearing you of you. So you're

551
00:33:21.520 --> 00:33:24.560
going to say something that you shouldn't say. Yeah, you feel

552
00:33:24.560 --> 00:33:30.080
that way. But you shouldn't say it. Okay, let's keep going here.

553
00:33:31.080 --> 00:33:33.000
I thought there was a scripture like that to

554
00:33:34.600 --> 00:33:37.640
evildoers are trapped by their sinful talk and the innocent

555
00:33:37.640 --> 00:33:40.760
escape trouble from the fruit of their lips. People are filled

556
00:33:40.760 --> 00:33:43.040
with good things and the work of their hands brings them

557
00:33:43.040 --> 00:33:48.240
reward. Gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word

558
00:33:48.240 --> 00:33:50.480
stirs up anger, you're just making it worse, y'all just

559
00:33:50.480 --> 00:33:54.520
float, you're just throwing gasoline on that fire. When you

560
00:33:54.520 --> 00:33:58.360
are in an argument with someone and you say something harsh, you

561
00:33:58.360 --> 00:34:01.480
say something critical, you say something vicious, it's just

562
00:34:01.480 --> 00:34:05.840
going to get worse. The tongue of the wise adores knowledge,

563
00:34:05.840 --> 00:34:12.440
but the tongue of the fool gushes folly. There are six

564
00:34:12.440 --> 00:34:15.840
things the Lord hates seven that are detestable to him. haughty

565
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:19.760
eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart

566
00:34:19.760 --> 00:34:22.280
that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush to

567
00:34:22.280 --> 00:34:27.239
evil, evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a person who

568
00:34:27.239 --> 00:34:31.920
stirs up conflict in a community. You guys, how in the

569
00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:35.360
world would you stir up conflict in a community? You'd have to

570
00:34:35.360 --> 00:34:39.040
use your mouth, wouldn't you? The only way that you can stir

571
00:34:39.040 --> 00:34:45.520
up conflict within community is by your communication, by your

572
00:34:45.520 --> 00:34:50.000
speech, by your tongue. It says God, God hates and detests those

573
00:34:50.000 --> 00:34:56.400
things. Right? Alright, so we took a look at that. This is not

574
00:34:56.400 --> 00:34:59.720
a session of judgment, you guys. It isn't a session of

575
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:02.100
You shouldn't leave here feeling bad.

576
00:35:02.100 --> 00:35:04.760
In fact, now that we've gotten that out of the way,

577
00:35:04.760 --> 00:35:07.840
we're gonna empower, we're gonna be empowered.

578
00:35:07.840 --> 00:35:10.320
God has brought us here to tell us

579
00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:12.980
that we can manifest some stuff this year.

580
00:35:14.060 --> 00:35:16.040
Not just for us, but for others,

581
00:35:16.040 --> 00:35:19.080
that this is a year that has been set apart

582
00:35:19.080 --> 00:35:20.960
as a year of manifestation.

583
00:35:20.960 --> 00:35:23.060
Now, God's miracles, signs and wonders

584
00:35:23.060 --> 00:35:24.840
are manifesting in the earth all the time.

585
00:35:24.840 --> 00:35:27.820
But what if there was a concentrated period of time

586
00:35:27.860 --> 00:35:32.520
where we saw more manifestations of heaven coming to earth

587
00:35:32.520 --> 00:35:34.740
than we have ever seen?

588
00:35:34.740 --> 00:35:35.960
Would that be amazing?

589
00:35:37.860 --> 00:35:38.920
Do we believe?

590
00:35:40.580 --> 00:35:42.920
Do we believe that that could happen?

591
00:35:44.580 --> 00:35:46.280
I believe that it could happen.

592
00:35:46.280 --> 00:35:51.280
And I don't know about you, but I want to participate.

593
00:35:51.500 --> 00:35:55.500
I wanna go ahead and act like it's going to happen

594
00:35:55.500 --> 00:35:56.340
and do it.

595
00:35:57.180 --> 00:35:59.100
Okay, so I'm talking to myself

596
00:35:59.100 --> 00:36:02.540
as much as I'm talking to you tonight, okay?

597
00:36:02.540 --> 00:36:04.220
So our future is in our mouths.

598
00:36:04.220 --> 00:36:05.660
So let's talk about our hearts.

599
00:36:05.660 --> 00:36:08.620
Let's talk about the things that are in our hearts,

600
00:36:08.620 --> 00:36:11.540
because the Bible says out of the abundance of the heart

601
00:36:11.540 --> 00:36:13.260
is the mouth communicates.

602
00:36:13.260 --> 00:36:16.660
The mouth speaks out of the abundance of the heart.

603
00:36:16.660 --> 00:36:18.060
It does.

604
00:36:18.060 --> 00:36:20.500
And because it speaks out of the abundance of the heart

605
00:36:20.500 --> 00:36:22.700
or the overflow of the heart,

606
00:36:22.700 --> 00:36:25.380
Luke 6, 4, 5 says, I'm sorry,

607
00:36:25.740 --> 00:36:29.580
Luke 6, 4, 5 says a good man brings good things

608
00:36:29.580 --> 00:36:32.240
out of the good in his heart.

609
00:36:33.460 --> 00:36:35.340
But it says something very specific there.

610
00:36:35.340 --> 00:36:38.900
It says a good man, a good person brings good things

611
00:36:38.900 --> 00:36:43.740
out of the good stored up in their heart.

612
00:36:44.860 --> 00:36:49.740
That means there's a storehouse of good stuff in there

613
00:36:49.740 --> 00:36:53.660
for a rainy day, for a situation, for a problem.

614
00:36:53.680 --> 00:36:58.060
Did you guys know that problems are invitations to prophesy?

615
00:37:02.580 --> 00:37:05.200
Problems are invitations to prophesy.

616
00:37:07.540 --> 00:37:08.580
So we're gonna talk about that.

617
00:37:08.580 --> 00:37:10.580
We're gonna see an example of that,

618
00:37:10.580 --> 00:37:14.300
several examples of that specifically in the life of David.

619
00:37:14.300 --> 00:37:16.660
Okay, that dude was in a lot of trouble, a lot.

620
00:37:17.780 --> 00:37:19.500
And if anyone was gonna be super negative,

621
00:37:19.500 --> 00:37:21.260
it was gonna be him.

622
00:37:21.260 --> 00:37:23.260
But the reason why he wasn't super negative

623
00:37:23.820 --> 00:37:25.940
is because in the secret place,

624
00:37:25.940 --> 00:37:28.220
in the times of communion with the Lord,

625
00:37:28.220 --> 00:37:31.140
he had stored up good things in his heart.

626
00:37:34.380 --> 00:37:37.020
Identity, you guys,

627
00:37:39.060 --> 00:37:41.260
this is why you can't fake it till you make it.

628
00:37:42.300 --> 00:37:44.260
Behavior, including your verbal behavior,

629
00:37:44.260 --> 00:37:45.860
it follows identity.

630
00:37:45.860 --> 00:37:49.900
Identity doesn't follow behavior, behavior follows identity.

631
00:37:49.900 --> 00:37:52.380
He knew who he was and whose he was

632
00:37:52.380 --> 00:37:54.420
before any of the trouble started coming.

633
00:37:56.620 --> 00:37:57.820
Started with the lion and the bear

634
00:37:57.820 --> 00:37:59.780
coming after the sheep in the pasture.

635
00:38:01.780 --> 00:38:03.940
And when he started facing trouble,

636
00:38:04.820 --> 00:38:06.900
he did start to wax a little bit negative,

637
00:38:06.900 --> 00:38:09.340
but then he caught himself and remembered who he was

638
00:38:09.340 --> 00:38:11.340
because he had a storehouse of good things in his heart,

639
00:38:11.340 --> 00:38:12.700
didn't he?

640
00:38:12.700 --> 00:38:14.100
And he started to speak out of that.

641
00:38:14.100 --> 00:38:17.700
Ever notice somehow a little bit spiritually schizophrenic

642
00:38:17.700 --> 00:38:19.260
his psalms are?

643
00:38:19.260 --> 00:38:21.740
Or they start kind of rehearsing the trouble that he's in,

644
00:38:22.180 --> 00:38:25.700
and then all of a sudden it shifts into, but God is good.

645
00:38:25.700 --> 00:38:27.300
God's gonna rescue me.

646
00:38:27.300 --> 00:38:28.900
God's gonna help me.

647
00:38:28.900 --> 00:38:31.180
The same God that delivered me,

648
00:38:31.180 --> 00:38:32.980
from the lion and the bear is gonna deliver me

649
00:38:32.980 --> 00:38:35.100
from this uncircumcised Philistine.

650
00:38:35.100 --> 00:38:37.060
Do you guys, you see what's going on there?

651
00:38:37.060 --> 00:38:42.060
There was a storehouse of good things

652
00:38:42.060 --> 00:38:45.660
in his heart, of identity in his heart.

653
00:38:45.660 --> 00:38:49.420
And anytime his feelings started to get out of control

654
00:38:49.420 --> 00:38:51.140
because of circumstances,

655
00:38:51.140 --> 00:38:53.700
and he started to speak out of that place,

656
00:38:53.700 --> 00:38:57.180
he very quickly realized,

657
00:38:57.180 --> 00:38:59.100
I don't have anything to be worried about.

658
00:39:00.460 --> 00:39:02.100
The Lord is my light and salvation.

659
00:39:02.100 --> 00:39:03.060
Whom shall I fear?

660
00:39:03.060 --> 00:39:05.060
The Lord, he is the strength of my life.

661
00:39:05.060 --> 00:39:06.940
Of whom shall I be afraid?

662
00:39:06.940 --> 00:39:09.900
You guys, he wasn't speaking after the trouble was over.

663
00:39:09.900 --> 00:39:12.500
These were prophetic moments.

664
00:39:15.780 --> 00:39:20.020
When my foes came to devour me, they stumbled and fell.

665
00:39:20.020 --> 00:39:20.860
What was he doing?

666
00:39:21.540 --> 00:39:24.140
He was prophesying the demise of his enemy

667
00:39:24.140 --> 00:39:26.940
because he had seen God defeat his enemy before.

668
00:39:26.940 --> 00:39:28.900
So out of the storehouse of faith,

669
00:39:28.900 --> 00:39:31.860
out of the storehouse of identity, his mouth was speaking.

670
00:39:36.140 --> 00:39:39.820
Some of you, you talk to your problems

671
00:39:39.820 --> 00:39:42.140
and you get super negative and you talk about your problems

672
00:39:42.140 --> 00:39:44.380
because you just simply don't have enough history

673
00:39:44.380 --> 00:39:45.220
with God yet.

674
00:39:47.460 --> 00:39:48.940
You don't know his word.

675
00:39:49.820 --> 00:39:52.100
You haven't been discipled in those things.

676
00:39:53.780 --> 00:39:54.820
You haven't.

677
00:39:54.820 --> 00:39:56.020
But tonight we're gonna talk about

678
00:39:56.020 --> 00:39:58.220
how you can get some good stuff in there.

679
00:39:59.380 --> 00:40:00.220
When I was a kid,

680
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:02.080
You guys, I'm from the Oregon Trail era.

681
00:40:02.080 --> 00:40:04.920
So I'm, you know, on the cusp of the generations.

682
00:40:04.920 --> 00:40:06.520
I'm considered an Xennial.

683
00:40:06.520 --> 00:40:08.840
So a Gen X Millennial.

684
00:40:08.840 --> 00:40:09.840
Okay.

685
00:40:09.840 --> 00:40:11.440
Everyone remember Oregon Trail?

686
00:40:11.440 --> 00:40:12.660
You guys remember playing that in school?

687
00:40:12.660 --> 00:40:15.400
So we were the generation that in school

688
00:40:15.400 --> 00:40:17.040
we started using computers.

689
00:40:17.040 --> 00:40:19.600
Very, very crude computers.

690
00:40:21.160 --> 00:40:23.000
Not anything like the computers they use today,

691
00:40:23.000 --> 00:40:24.920
but still computers.

692
00:40:24.920 --> 00:40:27.040
And there was a saying in computer class,

693
00:40:27.040 --> 00:40:29.000
garbage in, garbage out.

694
00:40:29.000 --> 00:40:30.200
Does anybody remember this

695
00:40:30.200 --> 00:40:33.240
from the early, early, early days of computer?

696
00:40:35.360 --> 00:40:36.560
Oregon Trail.

697
00:40:36.560 --> 00:40:38.040
Christina, you live in Canada, right?

698
00:40:38.040 --> 00:40:39.800
It's probably an American thing.

699
00:40:39.800 --> 00:40:42.340
It was just like a very early computer game

700
00:40:42.340 --> 00:40:43.600
that we played in school.

701
00:40:45.780 --> 00:40:46.620
Okay.

702
00:40:46.620 --> 00:40:50.640
So garbage in, garbage out.

703
00:40:50.640 --> 00:40:51.480
What did that mean?

704
00:40:51.480 --> 00:40:54.180
That meant that the computer was just a tool.

705
00:40:55.160 --> 00:40:56.800
It was just a resource.

706
00:40:56.800 --> 00:41:00.660
And it would put out whatever you put in it.

707
00:41:01.840 --> 00:41:03.640
Whatever you programmed it with,

708
00:41:03.640 --> 00:41:06.140
that was the output that it was going to give you.

709
00:41:08.600 --> 00:41:13.120
You guys, if you fill yourself full of garbage,

710
00:41:14.160 --> 00:41:17.960
then the only thing that's gonna come out of you is garbage.

711
00:41:20.280 --> 00:41:21.860
Okay.

712
00:41:21.860 --> 00:41:22.700
Yeah.

713
00:41:24.160 --> 00:41:25.400
Garbage in, garbage out.

714
00:41:25.400 --> 00:41:28.800
So where do these things that are in our hearts,

715
00:41:28.800 --> 00:41:30.520
even if they are garbage,

716
00:41:30.520 --> 00:41:35.280
has your heart become a trash bin, okay?

717
00:41:37.000 --> 00:41:37.840
Has it?

718
00:41:37.840 --> 00:41:40.120
Has it become a dumping ground

719
00:41:42.440 --> 00:41:45.960
of trauma and other people's ideas of you

720
00:41:45.960 --> 00:41:50.080
and all kinds of stuff that is not in alignment

721
00:41:50.080 --> 00:41:52.680
with God's purposes and plans

722
00:41:52.680 --> 00:41:56.320
and even your identity in the Lord?

723
00:41:56.320 --> 00:41:58.520
That's what we have to start to ask ourselves tonight.

724
00:41:58.520 --> 00:42:01.120
So we're gonna talk about that right now, okay?

725
00:42:01.120 --> 00:42:03.460
So where do these things come from

726
00:42:03.460 --> 00:42:04.660
that come out of our hearts?

727
00:42:04.660 --> 00:42:05.960
Where did those words get in there?

728
00:42:05.960 --> 00:42:07.080
How did they get in there?

729
00:42:07.080 --> 00:42:10.440
You guys remember the revealing for healing cycle.

730
00:42:10.440 --> 00:42:12.160
We're gonna remind you of where that worksheet is

731
00:42:12.160 --> 00:42:14.120
so that you can go and kind of take inventory

732
00:42:14.120 --> 00:42:17.460
of what's in your heart based on some of the negativity

733
00:42:17.460 --> 00:42:19.080
that you've been speaking.

734
00:42:19.080 --> 00:42:23.440
If you want to figure out how it got there,

735
00:42:23.440 --> 00:42:28.440
all you have to do is follow the trail,

736
00:42:28.520 --> 00:42:31.840
meaning that whatever words, negative words,

737
00:42:33.240 --> 00:42:34.880
whatever death that you've been speaking,

738
00:42:34.880 --> 00:42:37.000
you speak it regularly, you say things like,

739
00:42:37.000 --> 00:42:39.560
oh, nothing good's ever gonna happen to me.

740
00:42:39.560 --> 00:42:42.800
You say things like, oh, flu season's coming.

741
00:42:42.800 --> 00:42:44.720
I'm sure I'm gonna get sick this year.

742
00:42:44.720 --> 00:42:49.040
Like that kind of stuff, right?

743
00:42:49.600 --> 00:42:54.280
It figures, any negative kind of things,

744
00:42:54.280 --> 00:42:56.400
all you have to do is grab a hold of that

745
00:42:56.400 --> 00:42:58.040
because it's come out of your mouth

746
00:42:58.040 --> 00:42:59.600
and you just grab a hold of it

747
00:42:59.600 --> 00:43:01.880
and then you walk it backwards.

748
00:43:01.880 --> 00:43:03.800
When was the first time I said that?

749
00:43:03.800 --> 00:43:05.200
When was the first time I heard that?

750
00:43:05.200 --> 00:43:06.480
The first thing that I have on my list

751
00:43:06.480 --> 00:43:08.360
as far as where our words come from,

752
00:43:08.360 --> 00:43:10.720
a lot of it is imitation from family.

753
00:43:11.720 --> 00:43:13.440
You're imitating it.

754
00:43:13.440 --> 00:43:15.760
Guys, that's how we learn how to talk.

755
00:43:15.760 --> 00:43:17.600
My little grandchildren right now,

756
00:43:17.600 --> 00:43:18.960
if you say it in front of them,

757
00:43:19.760 --> 00:43:21.120
they are going to repeat it.

758
00:43:22.040 --> 00:43:23.800
And if it's not nice,

759
00:43:24.680 --> 00:43:26.560
they're gonna repeat it in front of people

760
00:43:26.560 --> 00:43:28.120
that's gonna make you feel embarrassed

761
00:43:28.120 --> 00:43:30.280
when they say it out of their cute little innocent mouths

762
00:43:30.280 --> 00:43:31.480
because the person's gonna look at you

763
00:43:31.480 --> 00:43:32.880
and know where it came from.

764
00:43:34.680 --> 00:43:35.520
Right?

765
00:43:36.480 --> 00:43:40.440
My little grandson cannot pronounce the T-R in truck.

766
00:43:40.440 --> 00:43:43.160
So guess what that word comes out sounding like

767
00:43:43.160 --> 00:43:46.000
when you put the f sound in front of it.

768
00:43:48.960 --> 00:43:50.440
Not good.

769
00:43:50.440 --> 00:43:51.720
He's two years old.

770
00:43:52.920 --> 00:43:54.160
Dropping f bombs.

771
00:43:55.760 --> 00:43:57.040
He doesn't know though.

772
00:43:57.040 --> 00:43:58.680
Language means nothing to him.

773
00:43:58.680 --> 00:44:01.000
And that's important for you to remember.

774
00:44:01.000 --> 00:44:02.240
When you were learning this

775
00:44:02.240 --> 00:44:04.120
and you were imitating these words,

776
00:44:04.120 --> 00:44:06.000
language probably didn't mean a whole lot to you.

777
00:44:06.000 --> 00:44:09.600
You didn't understand what was behind some of the things

778
00:44:09.600 --> 00:44:11.840
that you were imitating from your family.

779
00:44:11.840 --> 00:44:13.080
Okay?

780
00:44:13.080 --> 00:44:15.520
All right, so family imitation.

781
00:44:15.520 --> 00:44:18.600
It can be secondhand trauma, inherited trauma,

782
00:44:19.240 --> 00:44:20.400
meaning that people in your family,

783
00:44:20.400 --> 00:44:21.920
they spoke bad about people.

784
00:44:21.920 --> 00:44:25.800
They spoke with criticism about politics,

785
00:44:25.800 --> 00:44:28.280
about certain people groups, certain skin colors,

786
00:44:28.280 --> 00:44:29.680
certain ethnicities.

787
00:44:29.680 --> 00:44:32.920
They spoke negatively about something

788
00:44:32.920 --> 00:44:35.320
that happened in the family, other members of the family.

789
00:44:35.320 --> 00:44:36.880
Raise your hand right now.

790
00:44:36.880 --> 00:44:41.440
If you have secondhand trauma or inherited trauma,

791
00:44:41.440 --> 00:44:45.320
you have bad feelings towards people in your family,

792
00:44:45.320 --> 00:44:47.360
not because of firsthand experiences,

793
00:44:47.360 --> 00:44:49.200
but because of experiences

794
00:44:49.200 --> 00:44:52.360
that your family had with those people.

795
00:44:54.840 --> 00:44:57.800
Raise your hand if you don't eat a certain brand of cereal

796
00:44:57.800 --> 00:44:59.760
because someone talked bad about it.

797
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:03.120
or certain, you know, other brand,

798
00:45:03.120 --> 00:45:06.840
a meat brand or eggs or milk brand,

799
00:45:06.840 --> 00:45:10.080
raise your hand if you know that you have some sort of

800
00:45:11.800 --> 00:45:15.520
inherited prejudice that has caused you to think negatively

801
00:45:15.520 --> 00:45:17.920
and also speak negatively about something

802
00:45:17.920 --> 00:45:19.920
that you have no firsthand knowledge of.

803
00:45:25.560 --> 00:45:26.400
Oh, where do you live?

804
00:45:26.400 --> 00:45:27.280
Oh, I live in Detroit.

805
00:45:27.280 --> 00:45:28.200
Oh, Detroit.

806
00:45:28.200 --> 00:45:29.080
You've ever been to Detroit?

807
00:45:29.080 --> 00:45:30.440
No, I just heard about it.

808
00:45:32.560 --> 00:45:33.960
I heard it's terrible there.

809
00:45:36.960 --> 00:45:38.400
You guys see what I'm saying?

810
00:45:39.960 --> 00:45:41.120
Do we understand?

811
00:45:43.560 --> 00:45:45.200
Friends, we have to let go of this.

812
00:45:45.200 --> 00:45:50.200
And so where do other words that are coming out of us

813
00:45:51.120 --> 00:45:53.000
from our programming come from?

814
00:45:53.000 --> 00:45:54.840
Personal experience.

815
00:45:54.840 --> 00:45:56.440
Okay, so that's secondhand experience.

816
00:45:56.440 --> 00:45:58.440
A lot of you raised your hand admitting,

817
00:45:58.440 --> 00:46:01.160
hey, yeah, I have some preconceived ideas,

818
00:46:01.160 --> 00:46:05.360
negative ideas about people, places, things, products

819
00:46:05.360 --> 00:46:10.360
because of other people and their trauma with that thing.

820
00:46:10.840 --> 00:46:12.800
Now, personal trauma.

821
00:46:12.800 --> 00:46:15.800
It's you're the person that has the firsthand experience.

822
00:46:17.120 --> 00:46:18.680
And you guys, this can go to the other side too.

823
00:46:18.680 --> 00:46:20.240
It could go into the good as well.

824
00:46:20.240 --> 00:46:22.480
It doesn't have to just be negative.

825
00:46:22.480 --> 00:46:24.320
You had a great experience with something

826
00:46:24.320 --> 00:46:25.960
and now you're singing its praises.

827
00:46:26.480 --> 00:46:28.360
In fact, a lot of people have come to this program

828
00:46:28.360 --> 00:46:31.560
because you have sung the praises of this program.

829
00:46:31.560 --> 00:46:36.480
And then people have been like, wow, you were speaking life.

830
00:46:36.480 --> 00:46:39.600
And then other people caught onto that and then they came.

831
00:46:39.600 --> 00:46:40.880
The same goes the other way.

832
00:46:40.880 --> 00:46:44.040
If you say, oh, hey, don't eat at this restaurant,

833
00:46:44.040 --> 00:46:45.640
I got food poisoning there.

834
00:46:45.640 --> 00:46:48.160
Then the people that know you are gonna be like,

835
00:46:48.160 --> 00:46:49.000
oh no, I can't.

836
00:46:49.000 --> 00:46:50.160
Every time they think about eating there,

837
00:46:50.160 --> 00:46:51.000
they're not gonna eat there

838
00:46:51.000 --> 00:46:53.080
because they're gonna be afraid of getting food poisoning.

839
00:46:53.080 --> 00:46:53.920
Am I wrong?

840
00:46:54.800 --> 00:46:56.880
It could just be a one-off for you,

841
00:46:56.880 --> 00:46:58.400
but you had trauma there

842
00:46:58.400 --> 00:47:01.400
and now other people are taking up your offense.

843
00:47:02.880 --> 00:47:05.440
Other people are taking up your trauma

844
00:47:05.440 --> 00:47:08.720
and it is causing them to feel a certain way,

845
00:47:08.720 --> 00:47:09.720
think a certain way

846
00:47:09.720 --> 00:47:12.720
and speak a certain way about certain things.

847
00:47:12.720 --> 00:47:14.840
You can do that with people.

848
00:47:14.840 --> 00:47:16.360
I have seen people in churches

849
00:47:16.360 --> 00:47:18.360
because they had a bad experience with someone

850
00:47:18.360 --> 00:47:20.840
they went on a date with that went to their church.

851
00:47:20.840 --> 00:47:22.720
It wasn't because the person was bad or evil.

852
00:47:23.200 --> 00:47:25.560
It wasn't because the person was a narcissist or an abuser.

853
00:47:25.560 --> 00:47:27.920
It wasn't because the person was trying to get them in bed.

854
00:47:27.920 --> 00:47:29.640
It was because they simply didn't click.

855
00:47:29.640 --> 00:47:30.840
They didn't get along.

856
00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:33.920
And now they're poisoning everybody else that's single

857
00:47:33.920 --> 00:47:35.240
that would go out with them

858
00:47:36.400 --> 00:47:41.400
by what they are rehearsing from the date.

859
00:47:46.040 --> 00:47:46.920
That ain't good.

860
00:47:49.000 --> 00:47:52.200
I mean, couldn't it just been, hey, bygones?

861
00:47:53.520 --> 00:47:54.440
We didn't get along.

862
00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:55.600
We didn't see eye to eye.

863
00:47:55.600 --> 00:47:57.480
We're definitely not right for each other,

864
00:47:57.480 --> 00:47:59.200
but it doesn't mean that there's someone else

865
00:47:59.200 --> 00:48:00.800
that's not right for them.

866
00:48:00.800 --> 00:48:02.680
We don't want to what?

867
00:48:02.680 --> 00:48:04.840
We don't want to spoil, poison, pollute

868
00:48:04.840 --> 00:48:07.200
or destroy their opportunity.

869
00:48:07.200 --> 00:48:09.480
The Bible says that we're not defiled by what comes in,

870
00:48:09.480 --> 00:48:11.920
but we are defiled about what comes out.

871
00:48:11.920 --> 00:48:13.600
We can destroy and pollute

872
00:48:13.600 --> 00:48:15.520
and ruin someone else's opportunity.

873
00:48:16.560 --> 00:48:18.160
That could happen in a group like this.

874
00:48:18.160 --> 00:48:20.320
You could date someone in here,

875
00:48:20.320 --> 00:48:22.000
go on a date, just have a video call.

876
00:48:22.000 --> 00:48:23.680
Maybe you're long distance.

877
00:48:23.680 --> 00:48:24.520
You didn't like it.

878
00:48:24.520 --> 00:48:25.400
You didn't think it went well.

879
00:48:25.400 --> 00:48:27.040
You didn't like something they said,

880
00:48:27.040 --> 00:48:28.760
got your panties in a wad about something

881
00:48:28.760 --> 00:48:29.960
because you need to do your hard work

882
00:48:29.960 --> 00:48:30.960
and you're easily offended.

883
00:48:30.960 --> 00:48:32.320
But all of a sudden now,

884
00:48:32.320 --> 00:48:34.080
you're gonna make sure that they don't get a date

885
00:48:34.080 --> 00:48:37.280
with anyone else here because you're gonna talk about them

886
00:48:38.840 --> 00:48:41.800
and spoil their opportunity to meet someone else.

887
00:48:45.560 --> 00:48:47.000
No.

888
00:48:47.000 --> 00:48:49.360
And just by the way, this is just a side note.

889
00:48:49.360 --> 00:48:51.600
We love you and we bless you,

890
00:48:52.200 --> 00:48:54.240
but that's a one strike and you're out situation.

891
00:48:54.240 --> 00:48:57.320
We catch anyone participating in,

892
00:48:57.320 --> 00:48:58.960
if you really think someone's unsafe,

893
00:48:58.960 --> 00:49:00.240
you bring it to leadership.

894
00:49:00.240 --> 00:49:02.040
You email us about it.

895
00:49:02.040 --> 00:49:04.840
Otherwise, we're gonna speak live to each other.

896
00:49:04.840 --> 00:49:09.160
We're gonna support each other in finding spirit mates.

897
00:49:09.160 --> 00:49:10.600
We are not gonna be a place

898
00:49:10.600 --> 00:49:13.160
where we participate in stuff like that.

899
00:49:13.160 --> 00:49:14.360
Cool, that's all.

900
00:49:14.360 --> 00:49:17.680
All right, where else can this stuff get in our hearts?

901
00:49:17.680 --> 00:49:19.560
I think this is the most dangerous one, you guys,

902
00:49:19.560 --> 00:49:21.200
and God's really been talking to me about this.

903
00:49:21.800 --> 00:49:23.160
I mean, really talking to me about it.

904
00:49:23.160 --> 00:49:24.000
Media.

905
00:49:25.120 --> 00:49:25.960
Media.

906
00:49:27.040 --> 00:49:29.480
I want you to raise your hand and be honest

907
00:49:29.480 --> 00:49:32.320
if you are a scroller.

908
00:49:34.520 --> 00:49:37.240
Scroll, scroll, scroll.

909
00:49:37.240 --> 00:49:38.600
Let's see them.

910
00:49:38.600 --> 00:49:39.680
See the hands.

911
00:49:40.760 --> 00:49:43.080
You don't have to do it every day, but you do it.

912
00:49:43.080 --> 00:49:46.920
You do it enough that you do it.

913
00:49:46.920 --> 00:49:48.040
You scroll.

914
00:49:48.040 --> 00:49:49.640
You scroll on your phone,

915
00:49:49.680 --> 00:49:51.760
just kind of mindlessly going down the rabbit hole,

916
00:49:51.760 --> 00:49:53.160
seeing what everybody's up to,

917
00:49:53.160 --> 00:49:57.760
seeing what reels or funny videos or whatever's going on.

918
00:49:57.760 --> 00:49:59.800
You stop, you watch something,

919
00:49:59.800 --> 00:50:00.640
then you scroll.

920
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:03.460
You scroll, how, how many of you that have been raising your hands?

921
00:50:03.460 --> 00:50:04.860
There's 85 already raised.

922
00:50:04.900 --> 00:50:05.400
I'm going to reload.

923
00:50:05.540 --> 00:50:06.160
I'm going to lower them.

924
00:50:06.160 --> 00:50:07.220
Now I want you to raise your hand.

925
00:50:07.420 --> 00:50:10.580
If you find yourself staying, cause you're mindlessly scrolling, but then

926
00:50:10.580 --> 00:50:13.860
you find yourself stopping and staying and watching something, and then all

927
00:50:13.860 --> 00:50:16.380
of a sudden you realize that it's not something that you want to watch, but

928
00:50:16.380 --> 00:50:20.140
it's kind of too late cause you already saw it, it's not something you want to

929
00:50:20.140 --> 00:50:23.020
watch, you thought it was something different, or maybe you didn't even

930
00:50:23.020 --> 00:50:23.980
think it was something different.

931
00:50:23.980 --> 00:50:28.580
You had a morbid curiosity to see what it was because of the, you know,

932
00:50:30.180 --> 00:50:35.100
they call it a hook, the thing that was trying to catch you and it hooked

933
00:50:35.100 --> 00:50:38.220
you and you watched it and then afterwards you just felt gross.

934
00:50:38.860 --> 00:50:42.780
You just felt gross because it was either inappropriate or it

935
00:50:42.780 --> 00:50:44.780
was something scary or morbid.

936
00:50:45.060 --> 00:50:48.100
Guys, I can't tell you how many times I have been scrolling and I went and

937
00:50:48.100 --> 00:50:52.220
stopped and I looked at something only I was thinking, Oh yeah, this is,

938
00:50:52.500 --> 00:50:53.860
this looks like a cute story.

939
00:50:53.860 --> 00:50:55.580
And then it was a horrible story.

940
00:50:56.480 --> 00:51:00.840
It was a horrific clickbait mess.

941
00:51:03.040 --> 00:51:05.960
And then unfortunately, sometimes if you click on that clickbait, it's

942
00:51:05.960 --> 00:51:09.600
actually spam and then it'll spam everyone else in your entire friends

943
00:51:09.600 --> 00:51:12.920
list and then all your friends will click on that same clickbait thinking

944
00:51:12.920 --> 00:51:16.040
that it's a cute story and it's not a cute story and then everyone gets

945
00:51:16.040 --> 00:51:17.840
spammed and they think you sent it to them.

946
00:51:19.920 --> 00:51:21.200
And then you got to change your password.

947
00:51:21.240 --> 00:51:22.200
By the way, that's what you have to do.

948
00:51:22.240 --> 00:51:23.160
You change your password.

949
00:51:23.320 --> 00:51:23.680
Okay.

950
00:51:23.960 --> 00:51:24.320
All right.

951
00:51:24.340 --> 00:51:24.660
All right.

952
00:51:24.980 --> 00:51:30.300
So only a few of you raised your hand saying that you have inadvertently

953
00:51:30.300 --> 00:51:34.020
watched something that made you feel icky afterwards, really four of you.

954
00:51:34.260 --> 00:51:36.580
I don't believe that I'm going to wait till you get your hands up

955
00:51:39.100 --> 00:51:45.980
inadvertently, or you just, you know, you kind of just had your guard down.

956
00:51:45.980 --> 00:51:48.700
You really just, you've been watching things.

957
00:51:48.700 --> 00:51:54.760
Maybe that you're having less, um, self-control is not the word it is a

958
00:51:54.760 --> 00:52:01.400
word, but you're, you're, um, you're having less standards is the word that

959
00:52:01.400 --> 00:52:07.000
I want about what you will stop and kind of take a look at still only

960
00:52:07.000 --> 00:52:09.760
69 of you have your hand up and I just don't believe it.

961
00:52:10.000 --> 00:52:14.520
I don't believe the rest of you have never watched something that afterwards

962
00:52:14.520 --> 00:52:16.240
you're like, man, I wish I wouldn't have watched that.

963
00:52:16.260 --> 00:52:19.500
I wish I wouldn't have watched that.

964
00:52:19.580 --> 00:52:19.980
Okay.

965
00:52:24.460 --> 00:52:29.700
I think some of y'all don't know how to put up the avatar hand and that's okay.

966
00:52:29.700 --> 00:52:32.500
I think some of y'all actually don't know how to put up the avatar hand and

967
00:52:32.500 --> 00:52:33.260
that is okay.

968
00:52:33.420 --> 00:52:34.020
It's okay.

969
00:52:34.340 --> 00:52:34.740
All right.

970
00:52:35.020 --> 00:52:40.000
So you guys, this is something that God has really been talking to me about with

971
00:52:40.000 --> 00:52:41.820
the whole garbage in garbage out thing.

972
00:52:42.160 --> 00:52:45.900
I promise you, you may not think this is affecting you, but what you are

973
00:52:45.920 --> 00:52:49.480
consuming on media, I'll just add music in there too.

974
00:52:49.680 --> 00:52:53.880
Maybe a lot of you aren't really listening to music, you know, regularly.

975
00:52:54.160 --> 00:52:58.740
I listen to Spotify every time I'm in the car, usually a lot of times worship,

976
00:52:58.760 --> 00:53:01.680
but sometimes I'll go to the oldies, like the yacht rock I'll listen to the

977
00:53:01.680 --> 00:53:05.140
sixties and seventies and I've been noticing all of a sudden in songs that

978
00:53:05.140 --> 00:53:09.540
my mom used to listen to that I loved as a kid, you know, from the Eagles or

979
00:53:09.540 --> 00:53:15.400
different bands that there, there's some questionable themes in those songs that

980
00:53:15.400 --> 00:53:20.460
I never noticed before, like the beat, definitely like the music, but there's

981
00:53:20.460 --> 00:53:27.300
some questionable themes of adultery and fornication and drug use and different

982
00:53:27.300 --> 00:53:31.740
things that even though my conscious mind is not picking up on those themes, guess

983
00:53:31.740 --> 00:53:33.860
what, guess who is picking up on it?

984
00:53:34.780 --> 00:53:35.740
My little old heart,

985
00:53:38.940 --> 00:53:39.780
my little old heart.

986
00:53:40.460 --> 00:53:43.040
Every time I'm in a teeny bopper store, cause you guys know I have two

987
00:53:43.040 --> 00:53:43.980
daughters in their twenties.

988
00:53:43.980 --> 00:53:46.220
And so I was wearing teeny bopper clothes.

989
00:53:46.240 --> 00:53:47.260
I'm going to go ahead and admit it.

990
00:53:47.260 --> 00:53:48.140
I'm going to confess to you.

991
00:53:48.140 --> 00:53:51.340
I was wearing clothes that people in college wear because I was shopping with

992
00:53:51.340 --> 00:53:53.860
my daughters and they had me dressing like a teeny bopper.

993
00:53:54.140 --> 00:53:54.640
Okay.

994
00:53:54.980 --> 00:54:00.780
I am now growing up, except for this off the shoulder sweatshirt that I do like.

995
00:54:01.020 --> 00:54:01.520
All right.

996
00:54:01.620 --> 00:54:06.320
But I am going to start dressing more grown up tomorrow, but listen, I want to

997
00:54:06.320 --> 00:54:12.500
tell you something, the music that they play in these stores is designed to cause

998
00:54:12.500 --> 00:54:17.180
the people that shop in these stores, namely young people to want to fornicate,

999
00:54:17.460 --> 00:54:23.240
to want to drink, to want to go to the club, to want to, to, you know, um, do

1000
00:54:23.240 --> 00:54:29.920
drugs, you know, to want to all the things it's designed to, and it's got such a

1001
00:54:29.920 --> 00:54:32.540
great beat that you just can't help.

1002
00:54:33.080 --> 00:54:34.700
Then get kind of lost in it.

1003
00:54:35.540 --> 00:54:38.060
You're like, Oh no, no, you're dancing.

1004
00:54:38.240 --> 00:54:41.660
You're talking about all the things that are in this song and your conscious mind

1005
00:54:41.660 --> 00:54:42.860
is just glossing that over.

1006
00:54:42.860 --> 00:54:47.400
Cause it's just a song and it doesn't mean anything, but all the unconscious

1007
00:54:47.400 --> 00:54:50.020
themes are getting into where here.

1008
00:54:50.200 --> 00:54:50.940
And guess what?

1009
00:54:51.240 --> 00:54:52.960
They're going to eventually come out of here.

1010
00:54:54.120 --> 00:54:54.620
They are.

1011
00:54:56.960 --> 00:54:57.240
They are.

1012
00:54:57.240 --> 00:54:58.240
They're going to come out of here.

1013
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:02.040
And it's important that we understand that.

1014
00:55:02.040 --> 00:55:03.440
But I wanna talk to you guys

1015
00:55:03.440 --> 00:55:05.300
that are really probably not dancing around

1016
00:55:05.300 --> 00:55:08.340
to teeny bopper songs about going clubbing

1017
00:55:08.340 --> 00:55:10.180
and having one night stands,

1018
00:55:10.180 --> 00:55:13.580
but you may be watching true crime.

1019
00:55:13.580 --> 00:55:16.180
I want you to raise your hand if you watch true crime.

1020
00:55:16.180 --> 00:55:18.820
And that includes all the true crime.

1021
00:55:18.820 --> 00:55:22.780
It includes all the LAPD and all the CNIS

1022
00:55:22.780 --> 00:55:24.520
and all of the lawyer shows

1023
00:55:24.520 --> 00:55:26.420
that talk about some crime has been committed

1024
00:55:26.420 --> 00:55:28.400
and now the lawyers have to go and argue in court

1025
00:55:28.400 --> 00:55:29.760
about who's innocent and who's not.

1026
00:55:30.520 --> 00:55:32.620
But it talks about the details of those crimes.

1027
00:55:32.620 --> 00:55:35.960
I wanna see all of you, and I'm included, my hands up.

1028
00:55:35.960 --> 00:55:37.260
I love a good lawyer show.

1029
00:55:37.260 --> 00:55:38.760
I love a good cop show.

1030
00:55:38.760 --> 00:55:43.200
I love a good suspense thriller situation.

1031
00:55:44.380 --> 00:55:47.700
You guys, I'm about to hurt all your feelings a lot

1032
00:55:47.700 --> 00:55:49.280
because Holy Spirit hurt my feelings.

1033
00:55:49.280 --> 00:55:51.580
And so now I'm gonna hurt your feelings.

1034
00:55:51.580 --> 00:55:56.580
These movies are filling us full of fear,

1035
00:55:57.040 --> 00:56:01.680
us full of fear, suspicion, negativity,

1036
00:56:01.680 --> 00:56:03.880
prejudice, embarrassment.

1037
00:56:04.780 --> 00:56:07.480
You guys, they are, they are.

1038
00:56:07.480 --> 00:56:09.560
And it's gonna be so hard not to watch them

1039
00:56:09.560 --> 00:56:11.420
because I love a good mystery.

1040
00:56:11.420 --> 00:56:13.400
And those shows are full of good mystery

1041
00:56:13.400 --> 00:56:15.060
and I just don't know.

1042
00:56:15.060 --> 00:56:18.700
But I'm telling you, if you're continuously watching shows

1043
00:56:18.700 --> 00:56:22.500
about someone getting murdered and slaughtered,

1044
00:56:22.500 --> 00:56:24.000
about people getting raped,

1045
00:56:24.000 --> 00:56:26.960
about all kinds of evil devilish things

1046
00:56:26.960 --> 00:56:30.700
that people are doing to each other, it is affecting you.

1047
00:56:32.560 --> 00:56:33.800
I know that you're like,

1048
00:56:33.800 --> 00:56:35.840
oh, but my mind knows that it's not real,

1049
00:56:35.840 --> 00:56:37.000
but your heart doesn't.

1050
00:56:38.380 --> 00:56:39.440
And you know what else doesn't?

1051
00:56:39.440 --> 00:56:40.780
Your nervous system.

1052
00:56:40.780 --> 00:56:43.280
Your nervous system doesn't know that it's not real.

1053
00:56:43.280 --> 00:56:44.680
Did you know that watching something,

1054
00:56:44.680 --> 00:56:46.480
someone get murdered on a show

1055
00:56:46.480 --> 00:56:50.420
is the same as watching someone get murdered in real life

1056
00:56:51.820 --> 00:56:53.920
as far as your endocrine system is concerned?

1057
00:56:54.740 --> 00:56:55.980
They've proven it scientifically.

1058
00:56:55.980 --> 00:56:57.120
Your body, your fight or flight response

1059
00:56:57.120 --> 00:56:59.780
does not know the difference between fact and fiction.

1060
00:57:02.080 --> 00:57:07.080
Your adrenaline is going to release the same way as it would

1061
00:57:08.820 --> 00:57:13.020
if you were actually witnessing someone getting hurt.

1062
00:57:13.020 --> 00:57:14.460
And it's a good thing because you guys,

1063
00:57:14.460 --> 00:57:17.960
the minute that that stops bothering you, that's bad.

1064
00:57:20.060 --> 00:57:21.640
Becoming desensitized.

1065
00:57:21.640 --> 00:57:22.940
You guys have heard that word, right?

1066
00:57:22.960 --> 00:57:24.420
Just desensitized.

1067
00:57:24.420 --> 00:57:26.500
Because if you're desensitized to watching someone

1068
00:57:26.500 --> 00:57:31.500
get completely destroyed in front of you on a movie

1069
00:57:32.960 --> 00:57:34.640
and it just doesn't bother you, you're like, whatever.

1070
00:57:34.640 --> 00:57:38.440
Then you eat a cupcake and go to bed, whatever.

1071
00:57:40.040 --> 00:57:43.320
You're going to find that in real life events,

1072
00:57:43.320 --> 00:57:45.320
things in the news, things that you hear about

1073
00:57:45.320 --> 00:57:47.020
that have really happened to real people,

1074
00:57:47.020 --> 00:57:48.480
you're not going to feel empathy.

1075
00:57:48.480 --> 00:57:51.160
You're not going to feel an urge to pray.

1076
00:57:51.180 --> 00:57:54.140
You're not going to feel the urgency of the spirit.

1077
00:57:54.140 --> 00:57:55.220
You're not going to.

1078
00:57:57.100 --> 00:57:58.940
You're just going to be like, oh, that's terrible.

1079
00:57:58.940 --> 00:58:00.660
Sorry to hear that.

1080
00:58:00.660 --> 00:58:02.320
If you even feel that.

1081
00:58:04.080 --> 00:58:07.260
Yes, working in a prison, that would be very, very rough.

1082
00:58:07.260 --> 00:58:09.340
And in fact, I want you to consider

1083
00:58:09.340 --> 00:58:12.680
that there's a expiration date on that kind of ministry.

1084
00:58:14.700 --> 00:58:18.420
You guys, there's an expiration date on the type of ministry,

1085
00:58:18.440 --> 00:58:21.600
the job, the vocation, where you are dealing

1086
00:58:21.600 --> 00:58:24.880
with high level stress constantly.

1087
00:58:26.200 --> 00:58:30.080
Dealing with kids with behavior problems, teachers.

1088
00:58:30.080 --> 00:58:32.280
I have one of my best friends is a first grade teacher.

1089
00:58:32.280 --> 00:58:34.320
She said, Jackie, in the last 10 years,

1090
00:58:34.320 --> 00:58:36.200
she said, I used to have maybe one or two kids

1091
00:58:36.200 --> 00:58:37.920
with behavior problems from troubled families.

1092
00:58:37.920 --> 00:58:39.760
Now I have a whole class full of them.

1093
00:58:40.700 --> 00:58:43.360
There's an expiration date on that type of stuff.

1094
00:58:43.360 --> 00:58:45.440
Let someone new right out of college go ahead

1095
00:58:45.440 --> 00:58:47.560
that's fresh and ready to take that on.

1096
00:58:47.560 --> 00:58:48.500
Let them take that on.

1097
00:58:48.500 --> 00:58:49.660
Maybe it's time for you to move on

1098
00:58:49.660 --> 00:58:50.820
to some other kind of vocation.

1099
00:58:50.820 --> 00:58:53.480
Use your teaching gift in a different way.

1100
00:58:53.480 --> 00:58:54.780
Working in a hospital,

1101
00:58:54.780 --> 00:58:57.580
especially in high crisis kind of place.

1102
00:58:57.580 --> 00:58:59.220
Maybe it's time for you to take a breather

1103
00:58:59.220 --> 00:59:01.200
from some of that and use that gift

1104
00:59:01.200 --> 00:59:02.900
in a different department.

1105
00:59:02.900 --> 00:59:05.060
Maybe it's time for you to work with birthing babies

1106
00:59:05.060 --> 00:59:07.400
instead of people dying, people being born.

1107
00:59:09.180 --> 00:59:11.580
I know that you can't just switch around in the hospital.

1108
00:59:11.580 --> 00:59:12.580
Trust me, I understand that.

1109
00:59:12.580 --> 00:59:16.460
But at the same time, you can do something different.

1110
00:59:16.480 --> 00:59:19.280
And I don't know what that looks like, but God does.

1111
00:59:19.280 --> 00:59:24.280
And so you guys, we have to begin to really think

1112
00:59:24.420 --> 00:59:28.000
about what we're thinking about and what we are watching.

1113
00:59:28.000 --> 00:59:30.840
Repetition, especially if you listen to the same type

1114
00:59:30.840 --> 00:59:32.160
of things over and over again.

1115
00:59:32.160 --> 00:59:34.360
Some people listen to those true crime podcasts

1116
00:59:34.360 --> 00:59:38.380
that are just, all it is is a retelling of gruesome details

1117
00:59:38.380 --> 00:59:42.460
of some horrible thing that happened to somebody.

1118
00:59:42.460 --> 00:59:44.560
You guys, that is not good for you.

1119
00:59:44.560 --> 00:59:45.720
It's never good for you.

1120
00:59:45.740 --> 00:59:48.220
It's gonna make you suspicious of strangers.

1121
00:59:48.220 --> 00:59:50.900
It's gonna make you always looking over one shoulder.

1122
00:59:50.900 --> 00:59:54.660
It's going to cause all kinds of issues in your life.

1123
00:59:54.660 --> 00:59:56.980
Do not do it.

1124
00:59:57.980 --> 00:59:58.820
Don't.

1125
00:59:58.820 --> 00:59:59.860
If you're addicted to it,

1126
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:04.080
break the dopamine rush that you get from being afraid,

1127
01:00:04.080 --> 01:00:05.920
from hearing horrible things.

1128
01:00:05.920 --> 01:00:08.880
Guys, I was on an airplane for a long time.

1129
01:00:08.880 --> 01:00:13.400
It was a five hour flight from Boston to Austin.

1130
01:00:13.400 --> 01:00:16.640
And the man that was sitting parallel to me,

1131
01:00:16.640 --> 01:00:20.280
like not parallel, but perpendicular to me, okay?

1132
01:00:20.280 --> 01:00:23.520
So I'm here and then he's not right here,

1133
01:00:23.520 --> 01:00:26.120
which would have been great, but he's right here.

1134
01:00:26.120 --> 01:00:28.400
So his screen on the back of his seat,

1135
01:00:28.400 --> 01:00:30.380
it was impossible for me not to see it

1136
01:00:30.380 --> 01:00:33.080
out of the corner of my eye unless I closed my eyes

1137
01:00:33.080 --> 01:00:35.400
or unless I went like this.

1138
01:00:35.400 --> 01:00:37.820
This airline, Delta, which is my airline,

1139
01:00:37.820 --> 01:00:39.420
and I usually like Delta,

1140
01:00:39.420 --> 01:00:42.960
but in their library of content, you guys,

1141
01:00:42.960 --> 01:00:44.740
they have horror movies.

1142
01:00:46.520 --> 01:00:48.420
I'm not talking like scary movies.

1143
01:00:48.420 --> 01:00:50.420
I'm talking about hack them up,

1144
01:00:52.080 --> 01:00:54.380
cut people into little pieces, gore.

1145
01:00:55.240 --> 01:00:57.720
And this man was watching one of those movies.

1146
01:00:58.160 --> 01:00:59.280
I looked at him, guys,

1147
01:00:59.280 --> 01:01:01.000
and I had so much disgust for this man.

1148
01:01:01.000 --> 01:01:02.520
I'm just being honest right now.

1149
01:01:02.520 --> 01:01:04.160
I was disgusted by him.

1150
01:01:04.160 --> 01:01:07.280
I was sitting in the seat of the scornful.

1151
01:01:07.280 --> 01:01:08.560
I was, because I was like,

1152
01:01:08.560 --> 01:01:11.180
how dare you, you disgusting pig?

1153
01:01:11.180 --> 01:01:13.000
That's literally what I was thinking.

1154
01:01:13.000 --> 01:01:14.260
God, forgive me.

1155
01:01:14.260 --> 01:01:15.100
I was.

1156
01:01:15.100 --> 01:01:15.960
And why?

1157
01:01:15.960 --> 01:01:17.600
Because he was watching this movie

1158
01:01:17.600 --> 01:01:20.640
that was full of gratuitous nudity

1159
01:01:20.640 --> 01:01:22.800
and people being murdered,

1160
01:01:22.800 --> 01:01:25.520
and like by serial killer kind of murder,

1161
01:01:25.520 --> 01:01:27.600
like gore, okay, horror.

1162
01:01:28.360 --> 01:01:29.640
And I just had to like,

1163
01:01:29.640 --> 01:01:30.760
I couldn't get away from it.

1164
01:01:30.760 --> 01:01:32.940
For hours, this was going on.

1165
01:01:33.980 --> 01:01:36.920
Blood and guts and nasty, sickening stuff.

1166
01:01:36.920 --> 01:01:37.920
And he was just sitting there,

1167
01:01:37.920 --> 01:01:39.840
because I looked at him with disdain, right?

1168
01:01:39.840 --> 01:01:41.200
He's just sitting there,

1169
01:01:41.200 --> 01:01:42.320
eating his food,

1170
01:01:42.320 --> 01:01:45.880
just watching these people get massacred.

1171
01:01:45.880 --> 01:01:47.600
And I was so angry.

1172
01:01:50.840 --> 01:01:52.520
And the reason why he was able to do that

1173
01:01:52.520 --> 01:01:54.800
is because he's been completely desensitized.

1174
01:01:55.800 --> 01:01:58.080
These people screaming,

1175
01:01:58.080 --> 01:02:00.000
getting hacked up by chainsaws,

1176
01:02:00.000 --> 01:02:01.320
all the gore, all the blood,

1177
01:02:01.320 --> 01:02:02.520
all the nastiness,

1178
01:02:02.520 --> 01:02:03.440
didn't face him at all.

1179
01:02:03.440 --> 01:02:05.040
He didn't care.

1180
01:02:05.040 --> 01:02:07.000
He was like dozing off,

1181
01:02:07.000 --> 01:02:10.000
eating his Delta cookies and sun chips.

1182
01:02:13.000 --> 01:02:15.160
Now, I do not have a right to sit

1183
01:02:15.160 --> 01:02:16.560
in the seat of the scornful.

1184
01:02:19.120 --> 01:02:21.240
Is it possible that that could make me prejudiced

1185
01:02:21.240 --> 01:02:22.920
against men that look like him?

1186
01:02:22.920 --> 01:02:24.080
Men that act like him?

1187
01:02:24.080 --> 01:02:27.040
Could that cause there to be some prejudice in my heart

1188
01:02:27.040 --> 01:02:28.520
where I see people,

1189
01:02:28.520 --> 01:02:29.920
and then I'm just like, ugh.

1190
01:02:32.040 --> 01:02:32.880
Yes.

1191
01:02:34.120 --> 01:02:36.520
And you guys, this is the kind of stuff

1192
01:02:36.520 --> 01:02:38.240
that actually is gonna get in the way

1193
01:02:38.240 --> 01:02:40.880
of you being able to manifest your promise.

1194
01:02:42.360 --> 01:02:43.640
All right.

1195
01:02:43.640 --> 01:02:48.640
So, if you wanna know if something is good for you,

1196
01:02:48.640 --> 01:02:50.240
healthy for you to consume

1197
01:02:50.240 --> 01:02:53.200
as far as media and music and all the things,

1198
01:02:53.200 --> 01:02:54.200
ask yourself this,

1199
01:02:54.200 --> 01:02:57.000
what kind of fruit does it produce in me after I see it?

1200
01:02:58.600 --> 01:03:00.640
What kind of fruit does it produce in me?

1201
01:03:02.640 --> 01:03:04.600
Do I feel afraid when I'm watching it?

1202
01:03:05.600 --> 01:03:07.880
Afterwards, am I kind of afraid of the dark,

1203
01:03:07.880 --> 01:03:09.440
afraid to go to sleep?

1204
01:03:09.440 --> 01:03:11.240
Do I feel embarrassed when I'm watching it

1205
01:03:11.240 --> 01:03:14.000
because the things that people are doing to each other,

1206
01:03:14.000 --> 01:03:17.400
it's not good?

1207
01:03:17.400 --> 01:03:19.440
Does it make me feel negative?

1208
01:03:19.440 --> 01:03:21.400
Does it bring up any kind of negative fruit in you?

1209
01:03:21.400 --> 01:03:23.200
You guys pay attention to that

1210
01:03:23.200 --> 01:03:25.000
because the answer is then no.

1211
01:03:26.280 --> 01:03:29.160
If it does not, if it doesn't educate you,

1212
01:03:29.160 --> 01:03:32.360
make you feel concerned and proactive,

1213
01:03:32.360 --> 01:03:34.840
it doesn't bring up justice in you.

1214
01:03:34.840 --> 01:03:36.800
I love good entertainment,

1215
01:03:36.800 --> 01:03:40.160
entertainment that provokes us to good things.

1216
01:03:40.160 --> 01:03:42.320
And I'm not saying it all has to be Christian movies

1217
01:03:42.320 --> 01:03:43.560
because I hate Christian movies.

1218
01:03:43.560 --> 01:03:46.400
They're the most cheesy things I've ever seen

1219
01:03:46.400 --> 01:03:47.440
until the Chosen.

1220
01:03:47.440 --> 01:03:49.120
The Chosen is good, y'all.

1221
01:03:49.120 --> 01:03:49.960
All right.

1222
01:03:50.080 --> 01:03:52.880
The producers from that same production company

1223
01:03:52.880 --> 01:03:54.720
have been making some other movies like Cabrini,

1224
01:03:54.720 --> 01:03:57.560
great movie that will just bring justice,

1225
01:03:57.560 --> 01:04:00.360
Sound of Freedom, hard to watch.

1226
01:04:00.360 --> 01:04:01.800
I could never watch it again,

1227
01:04:01.800 --> 01:04:04.160
but it was really well-made.

1228
01:04:04.160 --> 01:04:06.800
Sound of Hope, also really great movie.

1229
01:04:06.800 --> 01:04:08.400
Lots of good things coming out,

1230
01:04:08.400 --> 01:04:11.200
action-packed kind of things,

1231
01:04:11.200 --> 01:04:14.000
things that are about real life events that happen

1232
01:04:14.000 --> 01:04:15.240
like wars and different things,

1233
01:04:15.240 --> 01:04:16.200
things that educate you,

1234
01:04:16.200 --> 01:04:18.840
things that help you to understand other people groups.

1235
01:04:18.840 --> 01:04:19.760
All of that is good.

1236
01:04:20.440 --> 01:04:21.640
I'm not saying that you have to completely

1237
01:04:21.640 --> 01:04:24.320
not see anything that has any violence in it.

1238
01:04:24.320 --> 01:04:25.640
That's not what this is about.

1239
01:04:25.640 --> 01:04:30.240
This is about things that have no value to you

1240
01:04:30.240 --> 01:04:33.000
and are causing you to be negative.

1241
01:04:34.560 --> 01:04:35.400
All right.

1242
01:04:39.720 --> 01:04:41.480
The Bible tells us to meditate

1243
01:04:42.560 --> 01:04:46.720
on what's lovely, pure, and good, Philippians 4.8.

1244
01:04:46.720 --> 01:04:48.200
Guys, this is why fake it till you make it

1245
01:04:48.200 --> 01:04:49.080
is not sustainable.

1246
01:04:49.440 --> 01:04:51.040
I know that we could just make a list of declarations

1247
01:04:51.040 --> 01:04:52.720
and go on with our way tonight,

1248
01:04:52.720 --> 01:04:53.920
but that is not sustainable

1249
01:04:53.920 --> 01:04:55.000
because whatever's in your heart

1250
01:04:55.000 --> 01:04:56.920
is gonna eventually come out of your mouth.

1251
01:04:56.920 --> 01:04:59.280
I can tell you to make a list of declarations,

1252
01:04:59.280 --> 01:05:00.120
but you'll do-

1253
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:01.160
Do that for a couple of weeks,

1254
01:05:01.160 --> 01:05:04.040
and you'll go right back to speaking death again,

1255
01:05:04.040 --> 01:05:07.200
if that's what's in there, okay?

1256
01:05:07.200 --> 01:05:10.840
And so this is about us really understanding

1257
01:05:10.840 --> 01:05:13.280
that whatever we focus on,

1258
01:05:14.200 --> 01:05:15.320
like it's kind of like Lot,

1259
01:05:15.320 --> 01:05:17.120
he pitched his tent towards Sodom,

1260
01:05:17.120 --> 01:05:19.680
and then he ended up in Sodom, didn't he?

1261
01:05:19.680 --> 01:05:21.240
He started out on the outskirts,

1262
01:05:21.240 --> 01:05:23.060
just pitching his tent towards something,

1263
01:05:23.060 --> 01:05:25.200
but he was beholding it.

1264
01:05:25.200 --> 01:05:28.760
Isn't this year the word behold?

1265
01:05:28.760 --> 01:05:31.560
Isn't that this year, right, suddenly?

1266
01:05:31.560 --> 01:05:34.000
And so he was looking at it, he was beholding it,

1267
01:05:34.000 --> 01:05:37.640
and then he eventually ended up participating in it.

1268
01:05:37.640 --> 01:05:40.400
And so it's important that we understand that.

1269
01:05:40.400 --> 01:05:43.800
All right, the Bible says in Job 22, 28,

1270
01:05:43.800 --> 01:05:47.160
declare a thing and it will be established for you.

1271
01:05:47.160 --> 01:05:50.080
God's promises are an invitation to partner.

1272
01:05:50.080 --> 01:05:51.440
Guys, if you have a promise from God,

1273
01:05:51.440 --> 01:05:53.880
even just in his word, didn't have to tell you in prayer,

1274
01:05:53.880 --> 01:05:56.120
you didn't have to have someone speak a word over you.

1275
01:05:56.120 --> 01:05:58.000
If you have a promise in his word

1276
01:05:58.000 --> 01:06:01.440
that you're holding onto for your own life in any area,

1277
01:06:01.440 --> 01:06:04.240
you seeing that and you partnering with that,

1278
01:06:04.240 --> 01:06:06.380
that was God's invitation.

1279
01:06:06.380 --> 01:06:08.520
When you saw it in the word, when it jumped out at you

1280
01:06:08.520 --> 01:06:10.960
and you're like, hey, this speaks to my situation,

1281
01:06:10.960 --> 01:06:12.600
I believe that God's speaking to me,

1282
01:06:12.600 --> 01:06:17.040
that was his invitation for you to partner with that, okay?

1283
01:06:17.040 --> 01:06:19.560
With his blessings, with his plans, with his purposes,

1284
01:06:19.560 --> 01:06:23.840
with his strategies, to speak life.

1285
01:06:23.840 --> 01:06:25.360
Does anyone remember that old movie

1286
01:06:25.360 --> 01:06:27.340
with Hayley Mills, Pollyanna?

1287
01:06:28.760 --> 01:06:30.060
Does anyone remember that?

1288
01:06:31.480 --> 01:06:34.760
Well, it became kind of a verb.

1289
01:06:34.760 --> 01:06:35.960
People would call people

1290
01:06:35.960 --> 01:06:39.680
that were ultra positive Pollyannas, right?

1291
01:06:39.680 --> 01:06:44.360
At least they did in the places that I come from.

1292
01:06:44.360 --> 01:06:46.760
All right, so that's just what it means.

1293
01:06:46.760 --> 01:06:49.040
It means like a super positive person

1294
01:06:49.040 --> 01:06:50.960
who always tries to find the silver lining

1295
01:06:50.960 --> 01:06:52.360
or the good in something.

1296
01:06:52.360 --> 01:06:56.360
And in that movie, Pollyanna played the glad game,

1297
01:06:56.360 --> 01:06:58.120
even though she didn't really have any reason to be glad

1298
01:06:58.120 --> 01:06:59.840
because she was an orphan and she was abandoned

1299
01:06:59.840 --> 01:07:01.480
and the person that adopted her and the family

1300
01:07:01.480 --> 01:07:03.360
didn't like her and was really mean to her.

1301
01:07:03.360 --> 01:07:04.400
There was all different reasons

1302
01:07:04.400 --> 01:07:06.520
why she could have been super negative,

1303
01:07:06.520 --> 01:07:10.420
but inside of her, there was a storehouse of hope.

1304
01:07:12.820 --> 01:07:14.880
Inside of her, there was a storehouse of faith

1305
01:07:14.880 --> 01:07:16.180
that this wasn't the end.

1306
01:07:17.280 --> 01:07:18.740
The story's not over yet.

1307
01:07:18.740 --> 01:07:20.960
And so she began to speak out of that storehouse

1308
01:07:20.960 --> 01:07:22.600
instead of speaking to what she saw,

1309
01:07:22.600 --> 01:07:25.040
she spoke to what she wanted to see.

1310
01:07:25.040 --> 01:07:28.240
And that's the invitation God has for you guys tonight.

1311
01:07:28.240 --> 01:07:29.760
Instead of speaking to what you see,

1312
01:07:29.760 --> 01:07:31.440
speak to what you wanna see.

1313
01:07:31.440 --> 01:07:33.240
This is what I wrote down for you guys.

1314
01:07:33.240 --> 01:07:36.220
Send your words out the way that you want things to go.

1315
01:07:38.240 --> 01:07:39.880
You guys, this is not name it and claim it.

1316
01:07:39.880 --> 01:07:41.460
It's not blab it and grab it.

1317
01:07:41.460 --> 01:07:43.520
This is God's word.

1318
01:07:43.520 --> 01:07:45.920
And this is not a do it one time

1319
01:07:45.920 --> 01:07:48.720
and if it doesn't work, quit and go back to nay saying.

1320
01:07:49.480 --> 01:07:51.320
This is a lifestyle shift.

1321
01:07:51.320 --> 01:07:53.440
Not just for this year, 57, 85,

1322
01:07:53.440 --> 01:07:55.760
but hopefully it will become a habit.

1323
01:07:57.680 --> 01:07:59.000
All right?

1324
01:07:59.000 --> 01:08:01.160
We used to play the glad game early in this community.

1325
01:08:01.160 --> 01:08:02.800
And some of you OGs remember that.

1326
01:08:02.800 --> 01:08:03.720
We played the glad game.

1327
01:08:03.720 --> 01:08:05.080
And why did we play the glad game?

1328
01:08:05.080 --> 01:08:06.960
Because so many women were showing up

1329
01:08:06.960 --> 01:08:10.360
complaining about just what pigs men were.

1330
01:08:10.360 --> 01:08:12.200
Guys, sorry about that.

1331
01:08:12.200 --> 01:08:14.320
Had to just let you know that's what was happening.

1332
01:08:14.320 --> 01:08:15.520
They were so mad at men.

1333
01:08:15.520 --> 01:08:16.359
Men suck.

1334
01:08:16.359 --> 01:08:19.000
There's no good men left in the earth.

1335
01:08:19.000 --> 01:08:20.640
Oh, you know, nobody likes me.

1336
01:08:20.640 --> 01:08:21.479
Everybody hates me.

1337
01:08:21.479 --> 01:08:22.760
I think I'll eat some worms

1338
01:08:22.760 --> 01:08:25.680
was every single day in our community

1339
01:08:25.680 --> 01:08:27.760
until I got to the point where I was like,

1340
01:08:27.760 --> 01:08:30.439
enough, we're gonna play the glad game.

1341
01:08:30.439 --> 01:08:32.479
We're gonna go on a negativity fast.

1342
01:08:32.479 --> 01:08:37.479
And so we started to have to do something really fun.

1343
01:08:37.760 --> 01:08:38.960
And that was this.

1344
01:08:38.960 --> 01:08:43.800
We started to have to do something called good gossip.

1345
01:08:44.800 --> 01:08:45.640
Guys remember this?

1346
01:08:45.920 --> 01:08:47.560
Raise your hand if you remember,

1347
01:08:47.560 --> 01:08:49.240
you've been here long enough.

1348
01:08:49.240 --> 01:08:50.960
All my coaches that are already married

1349
01:08:50.960 --> 01:08:52.160
should definitely remember this

1350
01:08:52.160 --> 01:08:54.000
because you were here during that.

1351
01:08:54.000 --> 01:08:56.720
Good gossip, and this is what it looks like.

1352
01:08:56.720 --> 01:08:58.720
When we gossip about people, it's never good.

1353
01:08:58.720 --> 01:09:00.359
It's always something bad's happening.

1354
01:09:00.359 --> 01:09:02.240
Did you hear about so-and-so?

1355
01:09:02.240 --> 01:09:05.279
Their husband left, their dog died, their truck broke down.

1356
01:09:05.279 --> 01:09:08.120
It's like a bad country song, right?

1357
01:09:09.720 --> 01:09:14.000
But good gossip looked like us speaking life

1358
01:09:14.040 --> 01:09:16.600
to what we wanted to see happen in our lives.

1359
01:09:16.600 --> 01:09:18.880
It looked like us coming into agreement with God

1360
01:09:18.880 --> 01:09:21.800
and beginning to gossip about ourselves.

1361
01:09:21.800 --> 01:09:23.600
Did you hear about Gail?

1362
01:09:23.600 --> 01:09:25.439
Oh yeah, all of her daughters

1363
01:09:25.439 --> 01:09:26.760
came over for Christmas this year

1364
01:09:26.760 --> 01:09:28.640
and they had a big, huge family gathering

1365
01:09:28.640 --> 01:09:30.479
and it was so amazing.

1366
01:09:30.479 --> 01:09:32.200
They all chipped in and they bought her something

1367
01:09:32.200 --> 01:09:34.040
that she's wanted for a really long time

1368
01:09:34.040 --> 01:09:35.359
and she was so excited.

1369
01:09:35.359 --> 01:09:37.560
And she got to see her grandchildren

1370
01:09:37.560 --> 01:09:40.560
and they're beginning to build relationship with each other.

1371
01:09:41.560 --> 01:09:43.960
Wow, look what God has done.

1372
01:09:49.160 --> 01:09:50.479
That's what it looks like.

1373
01:09:52.520 --> 01:09:54.760
And so that will be an assignment,

1374
01:09:54.760 --> 01:09:56.920
that will be an activation that we're gonna do tonight.

1375
01:09:56.920 --> 01:09:58.320
In fact, I think we're just gonna go ahead

1376
01:09:58.320 --> 01:09:59.960
and jump into that.

1377
01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:01.960
for the next 15 minutes.

1378
01:10:01.960 --> 01:10:03.160
We're gonna do some good gossip.

1379
01:10:03.160 --> 01:10:07.400
We're gonna begin to talk about, send our words out,

1380
01:10:07.400 --> 01:10:09.400
speak what is not as though it is.

1381
01:10:09.400 --> 01:10:11.320
You guys, it can't stop here.

1382
01:10:11.320 --> 01:10:14.680
If your storehouse of good is empty in your heart,

1383
01:10:14.680 --> 01:10:17.000
then you have to fill it with something.

1384
01:10:17.000 --> 01:10:17.840
You have to.

1385
01:10:18.920 --> 01:10:21.140
You have to begin to rehearse what God has done.

1386
01:10:21.140 --> 01:10:22.980
And if you really don't have that much history,

1387
01:10:22.980 --> 01:10:24.440
maybe you're a new believer,

1388
01:10:24.440 --> 01:10:25.560
then you need to rehearse it

1389
01:10:25.560 --> 01:10:28.100
with what good God has done for other people.

1390
01:10:29.100 --> 01:10:30.980
You guys, I used to have to do that.

1391
01:10:30.980 --> 01:10:33.500
When I first met Jesus, I did not have history with Jesus

1392
01:10:33.500 --> 01:10:36.440
and everything that had happened in my life was bad.

1393
01:10:36.440 --> 01:10:38.380
In fact, I had a hard time trusting God

1394
01:10:38.380 --> 01:10:40.300
because I was like, God, if you're everywhere,

1395
01:10:40.300 --> 01:10:41.680
when I started finding out about God

1396
01:10:41.680 --> 01:10:43.980
and that the fact that he's omnipotent and he's omniscient

1397
01:10:43.980 --> 01:10:45.620
and he's everywhere and he sees everything,

1398
01:10:45.620 --> 01:10:47.820
I got super pissed off.

1399
01:10:49.220 --> 01:10:51.460
I had given my heart to Jesus and I was full of joy

1400
01:10:51.460 --> 01:10:53.620
and I was so happy and I was filled with love.

1401
01:10:53.620 --> 01:10:55.920
And then people started teaching me about God.

1402
01:10:56.920 --> 01:10:59.320
And when I found that out about him,

1403
01:10:59.320 --> 01:11:01.040
I actually started throwing things.

1404
01:11:01.040 --> 01:11:04.300
I started punching holes in walls and breaking stuff.

1405
01:11:04.300 --> 01:11:05.140
Why?

1406
01:11:05.140 --> 01:11:08.720
Because I had been through a lot of stuff in my life

1407
01:11:08.720 --> 01:11:11.400
as an innocent child that did not deserve any of that stuff.

1408
01:11:11.400 --> 01:11:13.720
Now you're telling me that God was there for that

1409
01:11:13.720 --> 01:11:14.960
and he allowed it to happen

1410
01:11:14.960 --> 01:11:18.680
because he's all knowing and all seeing.

1411
01:11:20.160 --> 01:11:22.840
I had a major problem with that, friends.

1412
01:11:22.840 --> 01:11:23.840
I'm just being honest.

1413
01:11:23.880 --> 01:11:26.340
28 years ago, I had a major problem with that.

1414
01:11:27.320 --> 01:11:29.400
And that was enough for me to walk away

1415
01:11:29.400 --> 01:11:30.680
from the faith right there.

1416
01:11:30.680 --> 01:11:31.520
And why?

1417
01:11:31.520 --> 01:11:34.820
Because I didn't have enough history with God to sustain me.

1418
01:11:34.820 --> 01:11:35.880
Not good history.

1419
01:11:38.520 --> 01:11:41.280
And so I had to start borrowing other people's history.

1420
01:11:42.840 --> 01:11:44.800
God gave me the grace to overcome that.

1421
01:11:44.800 --> 01:11:46.340
He spoke to me about some things.

1422
01:11:46.340 --> 01:11:50.960
He told me where he was during those dark times in my life.

1423
01:11:54.840 --> 01:11:57.160
And yes, Mike, it was very hard to reconcile that,

1424
01:11:57.160 --> 01:11:59.840
but he gave me the grace to reconcile it and trust him

1425
01:12:01.680 --> 01:12:04.720
even when I couldn't trace him in those stories.

1426
01:12:06.560 --> 01:12:09.120
But I will tell you something amazing and supernatural

1427
01:12:09.120 --> 01:12:11.640
has happened in the last 28 years.

1428
01:12:11.640 --> 01:12:14.440
Those stories actually have been reframed

1429
01:12:15.760 --> 01:12:18.200
not into what happened to me,

1430
01:12:18.200 --> 01:12:21.040
but into what God did through what happened to me.

1431
01:12:21.040 --> 01:12:24.120
They've been reframed into, because of my infirmities,

1432
01:12:24.120 --> 01:12:26.920
the power of God rests upon me differently.

1433
01:12:26.920 --> 01:12:31.920
Because of what I experienced, God walked through me,

1434
01:12:32.160 --> 01:12:33.760
he walked with me through it.

1435
01:12:33.760 --> 01:12:35.080
He didn't deliver me from it,

1436
01:12:35.080 --> 01:12:36.640
but he walked with me through it.

1437
01:12:36.640 --> 01:12:39.360
I look back and I see God's sovereign hand on me

1438
01:12:39.360 --> 01:12:41.080
from my mother's womb on.

1439
01:12:41.080 --> 01:12:42.600
I should have been an aborted baby.

1440
01:12:42.600 --> 01:12:46.000
I'm the only, I'm the last child of my parents

1441
01:12:46.000 --> 01:12:48.520
that made it out of the womb alive.

1442
01:12:48.560 --> 01:12:51.000
The rest of my brothers and sisters were aborted.

1443
01:12:52.320 --> 01:12:53.920
Guys, I have five siblings in heaven

1444
01:12:53.920 --> 01:12:56.080
that I have yet to meet that were aborted.

1445
01:12:57.320 --> 01:12:59.600
God protected me in my mother's womb.

1446
01:12:59.600 --> 01:13:01.080
By the time she was pregnant with me,

1447
01:13:01.080 --> 01:13:05.280
she already had a 18 month old toddler

1448
01:13:05.280 --> 01:13:07.760
and she already knew that my father

1449
01:13:07.760 --> 01:13:09.880
was abusive and an addict.

1450
01:13:09.880 --> 01:13:11.920
And so it would have been very easily,

1451
01:13:11.920 --> 01:13:14.560
I would have been very easy to abort

1452
01:13:14.560 --> 01:13:18.120
just like all the children that came after.

1453
01:13:18.120 --> 01:13:19.560
But God protected me.

1454
01:13:19.560 --> 01:13:20.920
He put his hand upon me.

1455
01:13:22.720 --> 01:13:24.160
He kept me and that's what he said to me.

1456
01:13:24.160 --> 01:13:27.400
He said, I have been with you since your mother's womb.

1457
01:13:28.920 --> 01:13:30.320
And yes, you've experienced things

1458
01:13:30.320 --> 01:13:32.360
because of other people's free choice and free will,

1459
01:13:32.360 --> 01:13:34.600
he said, but I never allowed any of those things

1460
01:13:34.600 --> 01:13:35.720
to destroy you.

1461
01:13:40.880 --> 01:13:44.840
I tasted that bitter fruit y'all, but it didn't poison me.

1462
01:13:44.840 --> 01:13:46.320
Because look where I am today.

1463
01:13:46.320 --> 01:13:49.040
I should be in some mental institution somewhere or dead,

1464
01:13:49.040 --> 01:13:51.520
but I'm not, I'm right here doing what?

1465
01:13:52.480 --> 01:13:54.440
Furthering the kingdom.

1466
01:13:54.440 --> 01:13:56.880
In the area of marriage and family.

1467
01:13:56.880 --> 01:13:58.360
Can we all just laugh at the devil?

1468
01:13:58.360 --> 01:13:59.960
Would you like to do that with me?

1469
01:13:59.960 --> 01:14:04.840
Come on, crazy town, crazy.

1470
01:14:04.840 --> 01:14:08.800
The least qualified to do such a thing right here.

1471
01:14:08.800 --> 01:14:11.080
And yet here we are.

1472
01:14:11.080 --> 01:14:13.000
And so you guys, you might have to borrow

1473
01:14:13.000 --> 01:14:14.680
some good report from other people

1474
01:14:14.680 --> 01:14:16.600
until God reframes the things

1475
01:14:16.600 --> 01:14:17.680
that have happened in your life

1476
01:14:17.680 --> 01:14:19.640
and you give them praise report for it.

1477
01:14:20.800 --> 01:14:21.640
Right?

1478
01:14:22.600 --> 01:14:25.440
Let's just talk about that for a second.

1479
01:14:25.440 --> 01:14:27.840
David sinned, he committed adultery,

1480
01:14:29.680 --> 01:14:34.040
committed murder, got the woman pregnant,

1481
01:14:34.040 --> 01:14:37.400
she has a son and he dies.

1482
01:14:39.080 --> 01:14:40.040
Right?

1483
01:14:40.040 --> 01:14:42.920
And then we see David in Psalm 51 saying this,

1484
01:14:42.960 --> 01:14:45.560
created me a clean heart, oh God,

1485
01:14:45.560 --> 01:14:47.560
and renew a right spirit within me.

1486
01:14:47.560 --> 01:14:49.600
He's like, my heart's full of bad stuff.

1487
01:14:51.240 --> 01:14:53.440
I can't believe that I've done these things.

1488
01:14:57.200 --> 01:15:00.240
And then in verse 14, he says, deliver me from guilt.

1489
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:05.000
and then my tongue will sing loud of your righteousness.

1490
01:15:06.560 --> 01:15:11.300
Open my lips and my mouth will show your praise.

1491
01:15:13.760 --> 01:15:15.280
What's he want clean from?

1492
01:15:15.280 --> 01:15:17.880
He wants to be free from shame, sin, and guilt.

1493
01:15:18.880 --> 01:15:21.240
That will pollute your words like nothing else, friends.

1494
01:15:21.240 --> 01:15:22.180
It really will.

1495
01:15:23.200 --> 01:15:25.640
If we're still struggling with shame, sin, and guilt,

1496
01:15:25.640 --> 01:15:26.960
it's going to pollute our words.

1497
01:15:26.960 --> 01:15:28.580
Our words are gonna be negative.

1498
01:15:28.580 --> 01:15:30.820
Those negative words are gonna turn into negative behavior

1499
01:15:30.820 --> 01:15:32.540
because they come from negative identity,

1500
01:15:32.540 --> 01:15:34.620
and that is gonna turn into negative consequences,

1501
01:15:34.620 --> 01:15:37.040
and we do not want to manifest that this year.

1502
01:15:37.040 --> 01:15:37.980
Guys, I just wanna remind you,

1503
01:15:37.980 --> 01:15:40.020
this is a year of manifestation.

1504
01:15:40.020 --> 01:15:43.700
So either way, we're gonna manifest either way.

1505
01:15:43.700 --> 01:15:44.840
Let's manifest good.

1506
01:15:45.700 --> 01:15:49.140
Let's manifest good things for us and for others.

1507
01:15:51.500 --> 01:15:54.820
But I wanna point out that David is saying right here

1508
01:15:54.820 --> 01:15:59.820
that he will sing aloud of his righteousness

1509
01:16:01.500 --> 01:16:04.540
if God heals his heart.

1510
01:16:04.540 --> 01:16:07.220
Then my mouth will open up,

1511
01:16:07.220 --> 01:16:10.840
and the things that are gonna come out are full of joy

1512
01:16:10.840 --> 01:16:13.040
and righteousness and praise.

1513
01:16:14.960 --> 01:16:16.500
And so I know that sounds crazy,

1514
01:16:16.500 --> 01:16:18.160
especially for those of you that are in phase one

1515
01:16:18.160 --> 01:16:20.020
and you're just now starting heartwork,

1516
01:16:20.020 --> 01:16:21.860
but the things that you're forgiving people for

1517
01:16:21.860 --> 01:16:23.880
in week four, the things that you're confessing

1518
01:16:23.880 --> 01:16:26.320
in week three, the things that you think no good

1519
01:16:26.320 --> 01:16:28.440
can ever come of, and the things that you think

1520
01:16:28.440 --> 01:16:29.960
have destroyed your life forever,

1521
01:16:29.960 --> 01:16:32.960
one day you're gonna be giving God praise for those things.

1522
01:16:35.280 --> 01:16:36.120
Someday.

1523
01:16:38.120 --> 01:16:39.880
Someday you're gonna thank God

1524
01:16:39.880 --> 01:16:42.160
because you're going to see it through a different lens.

1525
01:16:42.160 --> 01:16:43.240
You're gonna see all the things

1526
01:16:43.240 --> 01:16:44.880
that you could not see in that situation.

1527
01:16:44.880 --> 01:16:46.920
You're gonna see God's sovereignty.

1528
01:16:46.920 --> 01:16:47.880
You're gonna see his hand.

1529
01:16:47.880 --> 01:16:48.720
You're gonna see his grace.

1530
01:16:48.720 --> 01:16:49.920
You're gonna see his mercy.

1531
01:16:49.920 --> 01:16:51.240
You're gonna see his love.

1532
01:16:51.240 --> 01:16:53.720
You're gonna see what could have happened.

1533
01:16:54.560 --> 01:16:55.400
All you know is what happened,

1534
01:16:55.400 --> 01:16:58.240
but you don't know what could have happened, right?

1535
01:16:58.240 --> 01:17:00.800
And so you don't know God's protection in those moments.

1536
01:17:00.800 --> 01:17:02.560
You think God abandoned you, but he didn't.

1537
01:17:02.560 --> 01:17:05.720
He said, I will never leave you and I will never forsake you.

1538
01:17:05.720 --> 01:17:07.080
And how can I say these things?

1539
01:17:07.080 --> 01:17:09.480
Because these things are stored up in my heart.

1540
01:17:11.000 --> 01:17:13.080
Jackie, how can you quote scripture just off the cuff?

1541
01:17:13.080 --> 01:17:14.920
Because it's stored up in my heart.

1542
01:17:16.760 --> 01:17:20.920
The Bible says that your word have I hidden in my heart

1543
01:17:20.920 --> 01:17:22.440
so that I don't what?

1544
01:17:22.480 --> 01:17:25.800
So I don't come off the path into unrighteousness.

1545
01:17:27.520 --> 01:17:29.440
So I don't follow after a broken identity

1546
01:17:29.440 --> 01:17:31.440
and do things that are not worthy of me.

1547
01:17:33.040 --> 01:17:34.480
It actually says, so I don't sin,

1548
01:17:34.480 --> 01:17:35.800
but that's what sin is.

1549
01:17:35.800 --> 01:17:38.160
You guys, sin is just us doing things

1550
01:17:38.160 --> 01:17:39.520
that are unworthy of us

1551
01:17:39.520 --> 01:17:41.560
because we believe that we're orphaned and on our own

1552
01:17:41.560 --> 01:17:42.600
and in our independence,

1553
01:17:42.600 --> 01:17:45.520
we're trying to take things into our own hands.

1554
01:17:46.360 --> 01:17:47.680
That's where sin comes from.

1555
01:17:47.680 --> 01:17:48.800
That's what sin is.

1556
01:17:49.360 --> 01:17:50.200
That is what sin is.

1557
01:17:50.200 --> 01:17:51.400
Sin is pride.

1558
01:17:51.400 --> 01:17:53.720
All of it is rooted in fear and pride.

1559
01:17:53.720 --> 01:17:54.720
Every bit of it.

1560
01:17:56.000 --> 01:17:56.840
Okay?

1561
01:17:56.840 --> 01:17:57.680
Okay.

1562
01:17:57.680 --> 01:17:58.520
All right.

1563
01:17:58.520 --> 01:17:59.360
So we're gonna go ahead

1564
01:17:59.360 --> 01:18:03.360
and we're going to do the good gossip.

1565
01:18:03.360 --> 01:18:04.200
Okay.

1566
01:18:04.200 --> 01:18:06.840
So here is the things that we want to ask God

1567
01:18:06.840 --> 01:18:09.200
to purge us from in our hearts.

1568
01:18:09.200 --> 01:18:10.520
Unwholesome talk.

1569
01:18:11.920 --> 01:18:13.040
You guys, I'll put this in a list

1570
01:18:13.040 --> 01:18:14.680
and we'll put it up in the groups, okay?

1571
01:18:14.680 --> 01:18:17.200
Unwholesome talk, which is unhealthy,

1572
01:18:17.320 --> 01:18:18.760
anything that doesn't bring life, you guys,

1573
01:18:18.760 --> 01:18:19.880
we're gonna speak life.

1574
01:18:19.880 --> 01:18:22.040
Life and death are in the power of the tongue.

1575
01:18:23.080 --> 01:18:26.200
Unhealthy, which means bad for the wellbeing

1576
01:18:26.200 --> 01:18:27.880
of your body, mind, and spirit

1577
01:18:27.880 --> 01:18:29.960
or somebody else's body, mind, and spirit.

1578
01:18:31.320 --> 01:18:32.160
All right?

1579
01:18:32.160 --> 01:18:33.320
That includes gossip.

1580
01:18:33.320 --> 01:18:35.960
You guys, stop gossiping.

1581
01:18:37.280 --> 01:18:38.280
And that includes,

1582
01:18:38.280 --> 01:18:39.880
and I know that we don't think about this,

1583
01:18:39.880 --> 01:18:41.800
but that includes about politics,

1584
01:18:41.800 --> 01:18:44.520
about politicians, about tabloids,

1585
01:18:44.560 --> 01:18:46.480
about politics, about politicians,

1586
01:18:46.480 --> 01:18:48.880
about tabloids, about celebrities.

1587
01:18:48.880 --> 01:18:49.920
Oh, did you hear?

1588
01:18:49.920 --> 01:18:51.360
Did you hear who Brad Pitt is dating?

1589
01:18:51.360 --> 01:18:52.640
Do you know Brad Pitt?

1590
01:18:52.640 --> 01:18:55.440
Because if you do, give him my number.

1591
01:18:55.440 --> 01:18:58.360
Because I think him and I should be friends.

1592
01:18:58.360 --> 01:18:59.520
Okay?

1593
01:18:59.520 --> 01:19:02.120
But in the meantime, if you don't know him,

1594
01:19:02.120 --> 01:19:04.200
then his name should not be in your mouth.

1595
01:19:06.040 --> 01:19:06.880
Amen?

1596
01:19:07.840 --> 01:19:09.400
But you're like, but Jackie, they're celebrities.

1597
01:19:09.400 --> 01:19:10.240
They're fair game.

1598
01:19:10.240 --> 01:19:11.080
No, they're not.

1599
01:19:11.080 --> 01:19:11.920
They're not fair game.

1600
01:19:11.920 --> 01:19:13.800
Not in God's book, they're not.

1601
01:19:13.800 --> 01:19:15.040
And if you see things about them

1602
01:19:15.040 --> 01:19:16.600
that you think actually might be true,

1603
01:19:16.600 --> 01:19:18.080
then you should pray for them.

1604
01:19:19.200 --> 01:19:20.840
You should pray for them

1605
01:19:20.840 --> 01:19:23.960
because they are in glass houses, okay?

1606
01:19:24.920 --> 01:19:26.400
None of us know what it would be like

1607
01:19:26.400 --> 01:19:28.160
to walk out of the front door of our house

1608
01:19:28.160 --> 01:19:30.800
and have people waiting to take pictures of us

1609
01:19:30.800 --> 01:19:33.080
and people invading our privacy,

1610
01:19:33.960 --> 01:19:35.720
constantly not being able to do anything.

1611
01:19:35.720 --> 01:19:37.120
You can't pick a wedgie.

1612
01:19:37.120 --> 01:19:38.960
You can't get food on your shirt.

1613
01:19:38.960 --> 01:19:40.200
You can't do nothing.

1614
01:19:41.240 --> 01:19:42.080
All right?

1615
01:19:43.080 --> 01:19:44.120
You can't pick your nose.

1616
01:19:44.120 --> 01:19:46.440
And all of us know that we pick our nose.

1617
01:19:46.440 --> 01:19:48.760
Every one of you has itched your nose inside,

1618
01:19:48.760 --> 01:19:50.120
inside of your nose.

1619
01:19:50.120 --> 01:19:51.040
Okay?

1620
01:19:51.040 --> 01:19:52.920
All right, you can't do any of that stuff.

1621
01:19:52.920 --> 01:19:56.040
These people are on display and it's wrong.

1622
01:19:56.040 --> 01:19:57.080
We should not worship.

1623
01:19:57.080 --> 01:19:59.080
We should not idolize other human beings.

1624
01:19:59.080 --> 01:20:00.120
And we have to stop.

1625
01:20:00.000 --> 01:20:01.120
talking about them.

1626
01:20:01.120 --> 01:20:04.000
You guys, if you've been talking smack about Kamala

1627
01:20:04.000 --> 01:20:05.560
or Donald, stop it.

1628
01:20:07.480 --> 01:20:10.440
First of all, who would want that job?

1629
01:20:11.720 --> 01:20:13.640
No one in their right mind,

1630
01:20:13.640 --> 01:20:15.440
unless they were called to do it.

1631
01:20:15.440 --> 01:20:17.360
And so let's just pray that the person that's called

1632
01:20:17.360 --> 01:20:18.600
to do it for whatever reason,

1633
01:20:18.600 --> 01:20:20.440
because God sets them up and he takes them down

1634
01:20:20.440 --> 01:20:21.520
all for his own reasons.

1635
01:20:21.520 --> 01:20:23.960
It's not always a good reason in our minds

1636
01:20:23.960 --> 01:20:25.080
and in our hearts,

1637
01:20:25.080 --> 01:20:27.120
but people get the leaders that they deserve.

1638
01:20:27.200 --> 01:20:28.880
And those are the consequences

1639
01:20:28.880 --> 01:20:30.840
of unrighteousness or righteousness.

1640
01:20:30.840 --> 01:20:33.440
And the bottom line is, is we will go and we will vote

1641
01:20:33.440 --> 01:20:35.680
and we will do our democratic service.

1642
01:20:35.680 --> 01:20:38.640
But in the meantime, stop talking bad about people.

1643
01:20:38.640 --> 01:20:40.120
You don't know those people.

1644
01:20:40.120 --> 01:20:41.600
Stop gossiping about them.

1645
01:20:42.480 --> 01:20:43.560
Stop doing it.

1646
01:20:43.560 --> 01:20:45.800
Stop talking about people slept their way to the top.

1647
01:20:45.800 --> 01:20:47.600
Did you sleep with them?

1648
01:20:47.600 --> 01:20:48.600
Were you there?

1649
01:20:50.040 --> 01:20:51.280
Stop talking about Diddy.

1650
01:20:51.280 --> 01:20:53.000
Stop talking about that stuff.

1651
01:20:53.000 --> 01:20:55.040
You guys, yes, you were bombarded with it.

1652
01:20:55.040 --> 01:21:00.040
24 seven news cycle, pray for people, speak life to people.

1653
01:21:00.240 --> 01:21:04.240
We want to see the world turned upside down

1654
01:21:04.240 --> 01:21:05.320
for the kingdom of God.

1655
01:21:05.320 --> 01:21:08.200
We cannot live like the inhabitants of this world.

1656
01:21:08.200 --> 01:21:09.480
We are pilgrims here.

1657
01:21:10.800 --> 01:21:12.440
Just try it.

1658
01:21:12.440 --> 01:21:13.560
You're like, well, yeah, you know,

1659
01:21:13.560 --> 01:21:15.280
sometimes I gossip about them, you know,

1660
01:21:15.280 --> 01:21:17.720
but what can it, what can it hurt?

1661
01:21:17.720 --> 01:21:18.560
What can it hurt?

1662
01:21:18.560 --> 01:21:19.560
They're never gonna hear about it.

1663
01:21:19.560 --> 01:21:20.400
They don't know.

1664
01:21:20.400 --> 01:21:23.000
You guys, your words carry power.

1665
01:21:24.000 --> 01:21:26.160
Would you like to do an experiment with me?

1666
01:21:26.160 --> 01:21:29.720
What would happen if you refrain from evil speaking

1667
01:21:29.720 --> 01:21:32.120
and judgment and scorning and scoffing,

1668
01:21:32.120 --> 01:21:34.480
which means expressing contempt and mocking

1669
01:21:35.600 --> 01:21:37.000
all that person's stupid.

1670
01:21:38.080 --> 01:21:40.280
Elon Musk, he's a weirdo.

1671
01:21:40.280 --> 01:21:42.360
What would happen if you stopped doing that?

1672
01:21:42.360 --> 01:21:46.200
Naysaying, which is criticizing and being cynical.

1673
01:21:46.200 --> 01:21:47.960
Guys, the Bible says not to sit in the seat

1674
01:21:47.960 --> 01:21:50.560
with the scorners and the scoffers and the naysayers.

1675
01:21:50.640 --> 01:21:53.200
What if you stopped with bitter words,

1676
01:21:53.200 --> 01:21:56.280
vitriol coming out of your mouth, out of your heart,

1677
01:21:56.280 --> 01:21:57.200
and you can't stop that.

1678
01:21:57.200 --> 01:21:58.040
You guys, we gotta heal that.

1679
01:21:58.040 --> 01:21:59.160
You can't stop it.

1680
01:21:59.160 --> 01:22:00.840
Cruel, vicious, bitter words

1681
01:22:00.840 --> 01:22:03.600
about your former husband or wife,

1682
01:22:03.600 --> 01:22:06.280
your kids that won't talk to you.

1683
01:22:06.280 --> 01:22:07.920
You're so angry that they won't talk to you

1684
01:22:07.920 --> 01:22:10.160
that now, you know, you're picking on their flaws

1685
01:22:10.160 --> 01:22:11.000
and on their weaknesses.

1686
01:22:11.000 --> 01:22:12.880
You're talking about them to your friends.

1687
01:22:12.880 --> 01:22:16.920
Well, you know, she's having an affair on her husband,

1688
01:22:16.920 --> 01:22:18.560
you know, talking about your own kid.

1689
01:22:18.560 --> 01:22:20.440
You guys, I think that I'm prophesying right now.

1690
01:22:21.120 --> 01:22:22.440
So someone that hit home with you,

1691
01:22:22.440 --> 01:22:25.120
God is asking you to repent and turn away from that.

1692
01:22:26.040 --> 01:22:28.480
Just because you're angry, just because you're hurt,

1693
01:22:28.480 --> 01:22:31.160
does not give you the right to tear down.

1694
01:22:31.160 --> 01:22:34.640
In fact, as that parent of that child,

1695
01:22:34.640 --> 01:22:36.080
you should want good things for them,

1696
01:22:36.080 --> 01:22:40.560
regardless of whether or not they ever say anything nice

1697
01:22:40.560 --> 01:22:42.280
to you or see you ever again.

1698
01:22:42.280 --> 01:22:44.320
You birthed that baby.

1699
01:22:44.320 --> 01:22:46.600
You fathered that child.

1700
01:22:46.600 --> 01:22:47.960
Speak life to them.

1701
01:22:48.920 --> 01:22:53.160
Stop speaking out of the poisoned waters of your heart.

1702
01:22:53.160 --> 01:22:54.800
Guys, I talk about in the heart work

1703
01:22:54.800 --> 01:22:57.120
that the well of your heart cannot be bitter

1704
01:22:57.120 --> 01:22:58.600
and good at the same time.

1705
01:22:58.600 --> 01:23:02.160
God said, you cannot praise me and hate your brother.

1706
01:23:02.160 --> 01:23:03.240
That's kind of the equivalent of,

1707
01:23:03.240 --> 01:23:05.520
do you kiss your mother with that mouth?

1708
01:23:05.520 --> 01:23:08.800
Is that the mouth you kiss your mother with, right?

1709
01:23:08.800 --> 01:23:12.040
You cannot praise God and curse other people.

1710
01:23:12.040 --> 01:23:12.960
You can't do it.

1711
01:23:12.960 --> 01:23:14.680
He's saying you can't do it.

1712
01:23:16.520 --> 01:23:17.360
You can't.

1713
01:23:18.960 --> 01:23:19.960
Not you shouldn't.

1714
01:23:19.960 --> 01:23:21.360
He's saying you can't.

1715
01:23:21.360 --> 01:23:22.520
And what does that tell me?

1716
01:23:22.520 --> 01:23:25.840
That tells me that it's not praise

1717
01:23:25.840 --> 01:23:29.480
if it's coming from a place that is full of bitter water.

1718
01:23:32.240 --> 01:23:35.520
You might call it that, but God's calling it something else.

1719
01:23:35.520 --> 01:23:37.920
He's calling it lip service of some sort, right?

1720
01:23:40.080 --> 01:23:42.960
Because can someone tell me real quickly in the chat,

1721
01:23:42.960 --> 01:23:45.680
we look on the outside, but God looks on the what?

1722
01:23:47.960 --> 01:23:48.800
The heart.

1723
01:23:54.120 --> 01:23:54.960
The heart.

1724
01:23:56.720 --> 01:23:57.920
So he doesn't just see what we do.

1725
01:23:57.920 --> 01:24:00.120
He sees why we do it.

1726
01:24:00.120 --> 01:24:02.360
And you cannot love God and hate your brother.

1727
01:24:02.360 --> 01:24:04.760
You cannot bless God and curse people.

1728
01:24:05.600 --> 01:24:06.840
Proverbs 18, four says,

1729
01:24:06.840 --> 01:24:09.880
the words of your mouth are deep waters.

1730
01:24:09.880 --> 01:24:11.200
Does anyone look down into a well?

1731
01:24:11.200 --> 01:24:12.240
You can't see the bottom of it.

1732
01:24:12.240 --> 01:24:15.160
We have a well here and I forget how many feet deep it is,

1733
01:24:15.160 --> 01:24:16.960
but it's like hundreds of feet deep.

1734
01:24:18.960 --> 01:24:20.240
And that's what this is talking about.

1735
01:24:20.240 --> 01:24:23.200
It's talking about that when water's deep,

1736
01:24:23.200 --> 01:24:26.200
like out in the ocean, if you're in a shallow ocean,

1737
01:24:26.200 --> 01:24:27.840
if you're right by the shore where it's shallow,

1738
01:24:27.840 --> 01:24:30.160
you can see the rocks and the fish, you can see things.

1739
01:24:30.160 --> 01:24:31.320
But if you get out into the deep,

1740
01:24:31.320 --> 01:24:33.400
you can't see what's down in there.

1741
01:24:33.400 --> 01:24:34.920
There's a lot of stuff hidden down in there.

1742
01:24:34.920 --> 01:24:37.120
And that's why I don't like the deep ocean.

1743
01:24:37.120 --> 01:24:38.920
The deep ocean is scary to me

1744
01:24:38.920 --> 01:24:41.840
because I don't know what's in there, okay?

1745
01:24:41.840 --> 01:24:43.600
And I saw Jaws when I was a kid.

1746
01:24:43.600 --> 01:24:46.000
You see how media and music has messed me up?

1747
01:24:47.000 --> 01:24:49.600
I'm talking about it right now.

1748
01:24:49.600 --> 01:24:51.200
So the deep well, the murky waters,

1749
01:24:51.200 --> 01:24:54.360
you cannot see what's hiding underneath there.

1750
01:24:54.360 --> 01:24:55.440
And that's about heartwork.

1751
01:24:55.440 --> 01:24:57.080
Proverbs is talking about heartwork.

1752
01:24:57.080 --> 01:24:58.800
The words of the mouth are deep waters.

1753
01:24:58.800 --> 01:25:00.400
No one knows what's deep down.

1754
01:25:00.000 --> 01:25:01.640
on in there, okay, except for God,

1755
01:25:01.640 --> 01:25:03.940
because deep calls to deep.

1756
01:25:03.940 --> 01:25:05.760
Come on, Holy Spirit.

1757
01:25:05.760 --> 01:25:07.960
But the fountain, this scripture goes on,

1758
01:25:07.960 --> 01:25:11.460
but the fountain of wisdom is a rushing stream.

1759
01:25:11.460 --> 01:25:12.300
What is that?

1760
01:25:12.300 --> 01:25:13.720
That's the mighty river of the Holy Spirit.

1761
01:25:13.720 --> 01:25:15.160
That's fresh water.

1762
01:25:15.160 --> 01:25:16.680
That's fresh water, y'all.

1763
01:25:16.680 --> 01:25:17.520
And doesn't the Bible say

1764
01:25:17.520 --> 01:25:21.040
that out of your belly shall flow fresh water?

1765
01:25:22.980 --> 01:25:25.720
Out of your spirit, out of your heart,

1766
01:25:25.720 --> 01:25:27.420
when it's in alignment with heaven,

1767
01:25:27.420 --> 01:25:29.440
you're going to be giving fresh water to people

1768
01:25:29.500 --> 01:25:32.980
that are in need of a drink.

1769
01:25:32.980 --> 01:25:35.620
The deep waters of your heart

1770
01:25:35.620 --> 01:25:38.820
can turn to the fountain of wisdom in a rushing stream.

1771
01:25:38.820 --> 01:25:40.460
God can uncover what's in the deep

1772
01:25:40.460 --> 01:25:41.660
because deep calls to deep.

1773
01:25:41.660 --> 01:25:43.520
And if there's things down deep inside there

1774
01:25:43.520 --> 01:25:47.000
that need healed, tonight I want you to ask him.

1775
01:25:47.000 --> 01:25:49.540
Reveal and heal the things that are deep inside

1776
01:25:49.540 --> 01:25:51.980
that are polluting my well, my water,

1777
01:25:51.980 --> 01:25:53.940
and making it bitter and not sweet.

1778
01:25:55.580 --> 01:25:56.900
Proverbs 29, 11 says,

1779
01:25:56.900 --> 01:25:59.560
a fool uttereth all that's in his mind,

1780
01:25:59.560 --> 01:26:02.360
but a wise person exercises control

1781
01:26:02.360 --> 01:26:04.000
and restrains themselves.

1782
01:26:04.000 --> 01:26:06.440
Some of you have pride yourself on speaking your mind.

1783
01:26:06.440 --> 01:26:07.280
Well, you know what?

1784
01:26:07.280 --> 01:26:08.400
I just say it like it is.

1785
01:26:08.400 --> 01:26:10.080
I just call it like I see it.

1786
01:26:10.080 --> 01:26:11.340
I just speak my mind.

1787
01:26:11.340 --> 01:26:13.420
I want you to put your hand up right now if that's you.

1788
01:26:13.420 --> 01:26:14.320
And please be honest.

1789
01:26:14.320 --> 01:26:15.160
Come on, you guys.

1790
01:26:15.160 --> 01:26:17.960
James 5, 16, confess and be healed.

1791
01:26:17.960 --> 01:26:19.540
You take great pride in the fact

1792
01:26:19.540 --> 01:26:21.320
that you call it like you see it.

1793
01:26:22.480 --> 01:26:25.100
You speak your mind, you say what you think.

1794
01:26:25.100 --> 01:26:26.840
But this scripture right here is saying,

1795
01:26:27.660 --> 01:26:31.100
that a fool is the one that says everything that they think.

1796
01:26:34.140 --> 01:26:36.100
I'm not calling you a fool,

1797
01:26:36.100 --> 01:26:38.900
but the book of wisdom is saying that it's foolish

1798
01:26:38.900 --> 01:26:41.120
to utter all that is in your mind.

1799
01:26:42.300 --> 01:26:44.100
It says, if you want to be wise,

1800
01:26:44.100 --> 01:26:46.600
you need to exercise control and restraint

1801
01:26:46.600 --> 01:26:49.280
when it comes to what you say.

1802
01:26:50.740 --> 01:26:53.140
What you say, okay?

1803
01:26:53.140 --> 01:26:53.980
All right.

1804
01:26:54.960 --> 01:26:57.840
And then last but not least of the scriptures, you guys,

1805
01:26:57.840 --> 01:27:02.080
Proverbs 4, 23, and this is in your heart work curriculum.

1806
01:27:02.080 --> 01:27:04.880
Keep your heart diligently because out of the quality

1807
01:27:04.880 --> 01:27:08.120
or the state of your heart

1808
01:27:08.120 --> 01:27:11.280
comes the quality or state of your life.

1809
01:27:12.520 --> 01:27:14.840
And so if you don't like what your life is looking like,

1810
01:27:14.840 --> 01:27:19.480
you can trace it back to areas of your heart

1811
01:27:19.480 --> 01:27:23.680
that are hurting, that are polluted,

1812
01:27:24.380 --> 01:27:25.220
that are poisoned.

1813
01:27:26.500 --> 01:27:27.980
Amen, amen.

1814
01:27:27.980 --> 01:27:30.060
So you guys ready?

1815
01:27:34.220 --> 01:27:35.900
We're ready to send our words out the way

1816
01:27:35.900 --> 01:27:37.260
that we want things to go.

1817
01:27:38.300 --> 01:27:39.840
You guys, this is not a one and done thing.

1818
01:27:39.840 --> 01:27:44.140
Remember, this is your past session for October,

1819
01:27:44.140 --> 01:27:45.300
but this is the beginning.

1820
01:27:45.300 --> 01:27:49.220
And you guys, today is 1010, okay?

1821
01:27:49.220 --> 01:27:51.860
Today is 1010, John 1010.

1822
01:27:51.860 --> 01:27:54.000
The thief comes to kill and to steal and destroy,

1823
01:27:54.000 --> 01:27:57.680
but Jesus talking, I have come that you might have life

1824
01:27:57.680 --> 01:27:59.840
and that you might have it overflowing,

1825
01:27:59.840 --> 01:28:01.680
that you might have it abundantly.

1826
01:28:01.680 --> 01:28:03.040
Who wants abundant life?

1827
01:28:03.040 --> 01:28:04.560
Who wants abundant life?

1828
01:28:04.560 --> 01:28:07.660
Abundant life, according to Proverbs 4, 23,

1829
01:28:07.660 --> 01:28:09.160
starts with an abundant heart.

1830
01:28:10.080 --> 01:28:11.440
If you want the quality of your life

1831
01:28:11.440 --> 01:28:12.940
to be overflow of goodness,

1832
01:28:12.940 --> 01:28:14.420
then that has to start with the things

1833
01:28:14.420 --> 01:28:16.400
that you're meditating on in your heart,

1834
01:28:16.400 --> 01:28:21.060
the storehouse of your heart, the well of your heart.

1835
01:28:22.840 --> 01:28:26.080
Proverbs 6, 2, I know I said it's the last scripture,

1836
01:28:26.080 --> 01:28:27.440
but I wrote this one down too.

1837
01:28:27.440 --> 01:28:31.520
Proverbs 6, 2 says that we are trapped and snared

1838
01:28:31.520 --> 01:28:32.760
by the words of our mouth.

1839
01:28:32.760 --> 01:28:35.600
If you feel stuck, you're not stuck on the outside,

1840
01:28:35.600 --> 01:28:36.960
you're stuck on the inside.

1841
01:28:38.860 --> 01:28:42.640
And whatever we believe, we become and we speak

1842
01:28:42.640 --> 01:28:45.600
and we attract, amen?

1843
01:28:45.600 --> 01:28:48.740
All right, so faith over feeling, truth over fact,

1844
01:28:48.740 --> 01:28:51.200
problems are invitations to prophesy.

1845
01:28:51.540 --> 01:28:54.460
I remember what King David does in Psalm 27.

1846
01:28:54.460 --> 01:28:57.260
We know that all kinds of crazy has broke out.

1847
01:28:57.260 --> 01:29:00.740
We know he has every reason to be really concerned

1848
01:29:00.740 --> 01:29:03.860
and to be scared and speaking fear,

1849
01:29:03.860 --> 01:29:06.380
but instead of speaking fear, he is speaking,

1850
01:29:06.380 --> 01:29:09.060
the Lord is my light and my salvation.

1851
01:29:09.060 --> 01:29:10.300
Who shall I fear?

1852
01:29:10.300 --> 01:29:12.460
The Lord is the stronghold of my life.

1853
01:29:12.460 --> 01:29:14.020
Who should I be afraid of?

1854
01:29:14.020 --> 01:29:17.020
When the wicked advance against me to devour me,

1855
01:29:17.020 --> 01:29:19.140
it is my enemies and my foes

1856
01:29:19.160 --> 01:29:20.760
who are gonna stumble and fall.

1857
01:29:21.720 --> 01:29:24.800
If an army besieges me, my heart will not fear.

1858
01:29:24.800 --> 01:29:26.440
If war breaks out against me,

1859
01:29:26.440 --> 01:29:29.200
even then I will be confident

1860
01:29:29.200 --> 01:29:31.040
that the one thing that I asked from the Lord,

1861
01:29:31.040 --> 01:29:32.360
this only do I seek,

1862
01:29:32.360 --> 01:29:34.080
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord

1863
01:29:34.080 --> 01:29:35.200
all the days of my life,

1864
01:29:35.200 --> 01:29:36.880
gaze upon the beauty of the Lord,

1865
01:29:36.880 --> 01:29:38.360
seek him in his temple.

1866
01:29:38.360 --> 01:29:41.760
In the day of trouble, he will keep me safe in his dwelling.

1867
01:29:41.760 --> 01:29:44.400
He will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent

1868
01:29:44.400 --> 01:29:46.520
and set me high upon a rock.

1869
01:29:46.520 --> 01:29:48.720
My head will be exalted above my enemies

1870
01:29:49.220 --> 01:29:50.060
who surround me.

1871
01:29:50.060 --> 01:29:51.260
And in his sacred tent,

1872
01:29:51.260 --> 01:29:53.580
I will sacrifice with shouts of joy.

1873
01:29:53.580 --> 01:29:56.300
I will sing and make music to the Lord.

1874
01:29:56.300 --> 01:29:57.900
Hear my voice when I call, Lord,

1875
01:29:57.900 --> 01:29:59.740
be merciful for me and answer me.

1876
01:30:00.000 --> 01:30:03.800
Or it says, seek his face, and your face, Lord, I seek.

1877
01:30:03.800 --> 01:30:06.440
Do not hide your face from me.

1878
01:30:06.440 --> 01:30:09.200
His heart is saying, hey, seek the Lord, seek his face.

1879
01:30:09.200 --> 01:30:10.600
And your face, Lord, I will seek.

1880
01:30:10.600 --> 01:30:11.840
Do not hide your face from me.

1881
01:30:11.840 --> 01:30:13.160
Do not turn me away in anger.

1882
01:30:13.160 --> 01:30:16.480
Do not reject me or forsake me, God, my savior.

1883
01:30:16.480 --> 01:30:18.520
Even if my mother and father forsake me,

1884
01:30:18.520 --> 01:30:19.920
you will receive me.

1885
01:30:19.920 --> 01:30:21.400
Teach me your way, Lord.

1886
01:30:21.400 --> 01:30:24.440
Lead me in a straight path because of my oppressors.

1887
01:30:24.440 --> 01:30:27.360
Do not turn me over to the desire of my foes,

1888
01:30:27.360 --> 01:30:29.640
for false witnesses have risen up against me,

1889
01:30:29.680 --> 01:30:32.080
spouting malicious accusations.

1890
01:30:32.080 --> 01:30:33.880
Remain confident of this.

1891
01:30:33.880 --> 01:30:36.720
I will receive the goodness of the Lord.

1892
01:30:36.720 --> 01:30:38.840
I will see it in the land of the living.

1893
01:30:38.840 --> 01:30:39.800
Wait for the Lord.

1894
01:30:39.800 --> 01:30:41.800
Remember, that's expectantly prepare.

1895
01:30:41.800 --> 01:30:45.320
Be strong and take heart and expectantly prepare.

1896
01:30:45.320 --> 01:30:46.360
To do what?

1897
01:30:46.360 --> 01:30:47.960
To see the goodness of the Lord.

1898
01:30:49.640 --> 01:30:50.720
And yes, Victoria, he said,

1899
01:30:50.720 --> 01:30:52.680
even if my father and mother forsake me.

1900
01:30:52.680 --> 01:30:53.920
His mother's not mentioned,

1901
01:30:53.920 --> 01:30:55.840
but his father didn't even call him in

1902
01:30:55.840 --> 01:30:58.920
when it was time for the prophet to anoint a king.

1903
01:30:58.920 --> 01:31:00.960
His father thought that little of him

1904
01:31:00.960 --> 01:31:04.520
that he did not call him in.

1905
01:31:04.520 --> 01:31:07.840
And there's a lot of talk about the parentage of David

1906
01:31:07.840 --> 01:31:10.360
and who was his real father and all the things.

1907
01:31:10.360 --> 01:31:13.160
And so the bottom line is that that's in there for a reason

1908
01:31:13.160 --> 01:31:15.480
about the forsaking of his mother and father.

1909
01:31:18.480 --> 01:31:21.480
All right, you guys ready to activate?

1910
01:31:23.040 --> 01:31:24.560
Here's your assignment.

1911
01:31:24.560 --> 01:31:28.680
Send your words out the way that you want this year to go.

1912
01:31:29.440 --> 01:31:30.280
And we're going to do that

1913
01:31:30.280 --> 01:31:31.160
by playing a little bit of a glad game,

1914
01:31:31.160 --> 01:31:32.680
a little bit about good gossip.

1915
01:31:32.680 --> 01:31:36.720
The assignment is for you to make up a story about yourself

1916
01:31:36.720 --> 01:31:38.560
that talks about what you would like to see

1917
01:31:38.560 --> 01:31:40.080
manifested in your life.

1918
01:31:41.160 --> 01:31:42.920
And I'm going to put you in groups,

1919
01:31:44.120 --> 01:31:45.360
just three to a group.

1920
01:31:45.360 --> 01:31:47.200
And I want you to really quickly, you guys,

1921
01:31:47.200 --> 01:31:49.280
I don't want you to prophesy about yourself

1922
01:31:49.280 --> 01:31:50.520
for five minutes.

1923
01:31:50.520 --> 01:31:53.800
I want you to really quickly just brag on yourself,

1924
01:31:53.800 --> 01:31:55.880
pretend that you're just sitting around with friends

1925
01:31:55.920 --> 01:31:58.960
and you're talking about yourself almost in third person.

1926
01:31:58.960 --> 01:32:00.280
I see some of you trying to leave

1927
01:32:00.280 --> 01:32:01.160
because you're scared now

1928
01:32:01.160 --> 01:32:03.360
and you don't want to participate in the activation.

1929
01:32:03.360 --> 01:32:07.080
Do not leave 158, stay.

1930
01:32:07.080 --> 01:32:09.560
Stay here, okay?

1931
01:32:09.560 --> 01:32:11.560
Because you're speaking life and you're speaking it out

1932
01:32:11.560 --> 01:32:13.160
and you're speaking in front of witnesses

1933
01:32:13.160 --> 01:32:14.960
that can come into agreement with this

1934
01:32:14.960 --> 01:32:16.840
and say that, yes, it's true.

1935
01:32:16.840 --> 01:32:18.440
And so whatever God's putting on your heart,

1936
01:32:18.440 --> 01:32:20.360
whatever area, because you can do this at home,

1937
01:32:20.360 --> 01:32:21.920
you can do this all year.

1938
01:32:21.920 --> 01:32:22.760
You're going to speak life.

1939
01:32:22.760 --> 01:32:25.080
You're going to fill up the storehouse of your heart

1940
01:32:25.120 --> 01:32:26.800
so that no matter what's going on,

1941
01:32:26.800 --> 01:32:28.680
you're continuing to speak what God is speaking.

1942
01:32:28.680 --> 01:32:31.160
You're continuing to manifest good things.

1943
01:32:31.160 --> 01:32:34.240
The Bible says that your tree will be by the water brook.

1944
01:32:34.240 --> 01:32:35.960
Its roots will go down deep into the water

1945
01:32:35.960 --> 01:32:39.040
and you can bear fruit in any and every season.

1946
01:32:39.040 --> 01:32:40.920
I believe that that's a typology

1947
01:32:40.920 --> 01:32:43.320
of this kind of manifestation that we're talking about.

1948
01:32:43.320 --> 01:32:44.160
Okay?

1949
01:32:44.160 --> 01:32:46.920
And so I'm going to put you in these groups very quickly.

1950
01:32:46.920 --> 01:32:49.680
We're only going to give two minutes to each person.

1951
01:32:49.680 --> 01:32:50.680
So in the next six minutes,

1952
01:32:50.680 --> 01:32:53.640
we're going to let you go on your way,

1953
01:32:53.640 --> 01:32:55.520
but I want you to activate this.

1954
01:32:55.520 --> 01:32:56.800
And so the assignment again,

1955
01:32:56.800 --> 01:33:00.200
is to gossip about yourself in third person.

1956
01:33:00.200 --> 01:33:01.040
All right?

1957
01:33:01.040 --> 01:33:04.040
So Mel would say, you know, Mel, she reloaded.

1958
01:33:04.040 --> 01:33:05.200
Did you hear about Mel?

1959
01:33:05.200 --> 01:33:06.040
Started out with that.

1960
01:33:06.040 --> 01:33:07.000
Did you hear about?

1961
01:33:07.000 --> 01:33:08.040
Like gossip.

1962
01:33:08.040 --> 01:33:09.480
Did you hear about Mel?

1963
01:33:09.480 --> 01:33:12.200
Yeah, she met her spirit mate and he is woo.

1964
01:33:12.200 --> 01:33:13.520
He is fine.

1965
01:33:13.520 --> 01:33:15.040
And you know, and then you can just start

1966
01:33:15.040 --> 01:33:16.440
talking about whatever.

1967
01:33:16.440 --> 01:33:19.480
They moved and you can talk about where you want to move to.

1968
01:33:19.480 --> 01:33:21.040
You know, you can manifest that.

1969
01:33:21.040 --> 01:33:23.000
You're like, Jackie, you know, this is a new age.

1970
01:33:23.000 --> 01:33:24.960
We can't just manifest whatever we say.

1971
01:33:24.960 --> 01:33:28.680
The Bible says, send your words out.

1972
01:33:28.680 --> 01:33:31.640
This is a scripture, the way that you want them to go.

1973
01:33:34.680 --> 01:33:35.520
All right.

1974
01:33:35.520 --> 01:33:38.080
It says, call those things that are not as what?

1975
01:33:38.080 --> 01:33:40.560
As though they are already done.

1976
01:33:41.920 --> 01:33:42.760
Okay.

1977
01:33:42.760 --> 01:33:44.800
So I'm just talking about what the Bible is talking about.

1978
01:33:44.800 --> 01:33:45.840
Okay.

1979
01:33:45.840 --> 01:33:46.680
If you don't like it,

1980
01:33:46.680 --> 01:33:47.960
then you can take it up with the Bible.

1981
01:33:47.960 --> 01:33:48.800
All right.

1982
01:33:48.800 --> 01:33:50.400
So I'm going to put you in these groups really quickly.

1983
01:33:50.400 --> 01:33:52.640
I'm going to take off my glasses so I can see up close.

1984
01:33:53.240 --> 01:33:55.920
And groups.

1985
01:33:55.920 --> 01:33:59.640
And let me move this over here so I can see it.

1986
01:33:59.640 --> 01:34:00.920
Oh no, I can't see that.

1987
01:34:01.840 --> 01:34:02.680
All right.

1988
01:34:06.080 --> 01:34:07.600
Breakout rooms.

1989
01:34:07.600 --> 01:34:08.600
Got it.

1990
01:34:08.600 --> 01:34:09.440
Look at me.

1991
01:34:10.440 --> 01:34:11.280
Okay.

1992
01:34:11.280 --> 01:34:12.120
Pulling it over.

1993
01:34:13.240 --> 01:34:14.080
All right.

1994
01:34:14.960 --> 01:34:15.920
132.

1995
01:34:15.920 --> 01:34:17.600
You guys look at you.

1996
01:34:18.560 --> 01:34:21.160
No, no, not at all.

1997
01:34:23.320 --> 01:34:25.240
You got the good stuff and you ran.

1998
01:34:25.240 --> 01:34:27.920
You didn't want to participate in the activation.

1999
01:34:27.920 --> 01:34:29.920
I know we should have done it 15 minutes ago,

2000
01:34:29.920 --> 01:34:31.440
but we had to make it clear.

2001
01:34:31.440 --> 01:34:32.280
Okay.

2002
01:34:32.280 --> 01:34:33.120
Let's see.

2003
01:34:33.120 --> 01:34:33.960
Assign manually.

2004
01:34:43.720 --> 01:34:46.200
Hey, we'll shoot.

2005
01:34:47.160 --> 01:34:48.520
Bethany, see if you can make it.

2006
01:34:48.520 --> 01:34:50.480
It's not telling me how many people are in a room.

2007
01:34:50.480 --> 01:34:52.640
See if you can make the breakout rooms.

2008
01:34:52.640 --> 01:34:53.840
Two to three.

2009
01:34:53.840 --> 01:34:55.240
How many you want in there?

2010
01:34:55.240 --> 01:34:56.080
Yeah, just two to three.

2011
01:34:56.080 --> 01:34:59.840
Well, do three to four because then it will default to three.

2012
01:34:59.840 --> 01:35:00.680
Okay.

2013
01:35:00.000 --> 01:35:03.400
Because I don't want there to end up just one person in there.

2014
01:35:03.400 --> 01:35:08.240
Oh, 126, hurry, it's dwindling.

2015
01:35:21.480 --> 01:35:22.480
Is it letting you do it?

2016
01:35:22.480 --> 01:35:30.360
Yep, it's there, it should be there.

2017
01:35:30.360 --> 01:35:32.320
Everyone can click to join their rooms.

2018
01:35:32.320 --> 01:35:33.320
Sweet.

2019
01:35:33.320 --> 01:35:37.440
All right, guys, let's do it.

2020
01:37:52.480 --> 01:38:06.560
If there are some people here that aren't in a group for some reason, you can go ahead

2021
01:38:06.560 --> 01:38:12.000
and just, you can do the activation right here with us if you want to.

2022
01:38:12.000 --> 01:38:20.360
I can't tell if you're here or if it's just saying that you're here and you're not here.

2023
01:38:20.360 --> 01:38:23.560
Some of those are people that just haven't joined their breakout.

2024
01:38:23.560 --> 01:38:28.840
I don't know if their internet's delayed or if they're just not able to, if they're driving

2025
01:38:28.840 --> 01:38:29.840
or something.

2026
01:38:29.840 --> 01:38:32.400
Yeah, they also might just be working.

2027
01:38:32.400 --> 01:38:33.800
I know Michelle is working.

2028
01:38:33.800 --> 01:38:34.800
She said she was.

2029
01:38:34.800 --> 01:38:35.800
Okay, cool.

2030
01:38:35.800 --> 01:38:40.200
All right, so as soon as they get back from that, we're just going to go ahead and wrap

2031
01:38:40.200 --> 01:38:43.440
up because we're already an hour and 45 minutes in.

2032
01:38:43.440 --> 01:38:54.800
Okay, sounds good.

2033
01:38:54.800 --> 01:39:04.400
You can do yours if you want.

2034
01:39:04.400 --> 01:39:06.840
You mean as in my good gossip?

2035
01:39:06.840 --> 01:39:07.840
Yeah.

2036
01:39:07.840 --> 01:39:12.880
I don't even know what I would want to do it on tonight.

2037
01:39:12.880 --> 01:39:18.960
I guess what came to mind, I didn't feel convicted or anything when you were prophesying

2038
01:39:18.960 --> 01:39:27.560
really over Gail about her kids, but it really got me thinking about my girls and just how

2039
01:39:27.560 --> 01:39:29.960
much they've been struggling.

2040
01:39:29.960 --> 01:39:38.160
I kind of envisioned my good gossip would be that both of my spiritual daughters are,

2041
01:39:38.160 --> 01:39:41.800
that I believe that God is going to cause them to thrive and flourish, that they will

2042
01:39:41.800 --> 01:39:48.000
have jobs and careers that they are successful in, that they will be fully functioning and

2043
01:39:48.000 --> 01:39:53.000
healed and that they won't live a life that patterns after their parents.

2044
01:39:53.000 --> 01:39:56.800
So I would have to reframe that and make it way more exciting, like how we used to do,

2045
01:39:56.800 --> 01:40:00.000
but that's what came to mind for me.

2046
01:40:00.000 --> 01:40:04.700
They would have joy on their hearts and their faces, um, that they wouldn't be

2047
01:40:04.700 --> 01:40:12.260
downcast anymore that they would marry men that have all the fruits of the

2048
01:40:12.260 --> 01:40:15.380
spirit, I guess I'm just keeping going as it's coming up in my spirit, but

2049
01:40:15.380 --> 01:40:16.920
that's, what's coming to mind for me.

2050
01:40:17.460 --> 01:40:20.540
Cause that's what I've been burdened with the most lately.

2051
01:40:22.060 --> 01:40:22.560
It's great.

2052
01:40:22.780 --> 01:40:24.900
Problems are invitations to prophesy.

2053
01:40:25.240 --> 01:40:26.460
Yeah, it was good.

2054
01:40:26.520 --> 01:40:28.360
That was a good reminder for sure.

2055
01:40:28.420 --> 01:40:29.860
Yes, it is.

2056
01:40:29.860 --> 01:40:31.760
It's a great reminder for all of us.

2057
01:40:31.860 --> 01:40:40.020
And, um, I feel like there's a call to a, a, a different level of set apartness.

2058
01:40:40.020 --> 01:40:42.600
And I know that a lot of people think that's religious and legalistic.

2059
01:40:42.600 --> 01:40:46.420
And a lot of people balk at that because, you know, of all the sloppy

2060
01:40:46.420 --> 01:40:48.480
agape kind of grace that's out there.

2061
01:40:48.480 --> 01:40:54.060
And I'm a grace girl myself, but I do feel like that God is asking us to come

2062
01:40:54.060 --> 01:40:58.420
apart from things that are actually causing us to be spiritual, stagnant.

2063
01:40:58.660 --> 01:40:59.620
Spiritually stagnant.

2064
01:40:59.960 --> 01:41:01.180
I don't think it's religious.

2065
01:41:01.180 --> 01:41:02.680
I think it's, there is wisdom.

2066
01:41:02.680 --> 01:41:04.380
And I think it partners with the word.

2067
01:41:04.380 --> 01:41:07.940
You also said about just that you believe God's calling us

2068
01:41:07.940 --> 01:41:09.540
into a season of intercession.

2069
01:41:10.060 --> 01:41:14.380
I mean, I absolutely saw that myself the last couple of days,

2070
01:41:14.380 --> 01:41:15.940
more than I have in a long time.

2071
01:41:16.660 --> 01:41:19.820
So I, that resonates for me, even what you're saying, the set of

2072
01:41:19.820 --> 01:41:23.980
partners and just being careful what we're listening to and watching and.

2073
01:41:28.180 --> 01:41:28.620
All right.

2074
01:41:28.620 --> 01:41:31.620
Same as those rooms, just so you know, they're going to be coming

2075
01:41:31.620 --> 01:41:33.500
back here on like 60 seconds or so.

2076
01:41:34.300 --> 01:41:34.740
Okay.

2077
01:41:34.900 --> 01:41:35.620
You think they're done?

2078
01:41:36.460 --> 01:41:36.700
Yeah.

2079
01:41:36.700 --> 01:41:40.260
Some of them had four, but hopefully, hopefully enough of them did it.

2080
01:41:40.260 --> 01:41:41.460
So yeah.

2081
01:41:58.820 --> 01:41:59.820
It was fun.

2082
01:42:00.820 --> 01:42:01.780
Was that fun?

2083
01:42:01.780 --> 01:42:02.180
Good.

2084
01:42:02.180 --> 01:42:02.980
I'm so glad.

2085
01:42:03.260 --> 01:42:03.460
Okay.

2086
01:42:03.460 --> 01:42:06.300
You guys, well, this is something that it's not a one and done.

2087
01:42:06.300 --> 01:42:07.500
It's not just for tonight.

2088
01:42:07.740 --> 01:42:09.420
It's about this entire year.

2089
01:42:09.780 --> 01:42:15.020
Um, God is really, um, really calling us to come up to a higher level.

2090
01:42:15.260 --> 01:42:18.660
There's only about 54 of us left on the call right now, 56.

2091
01:42:18.980 --> 01:42:21.060
Um, or actually maybe people are still coming in.

2092
01:42:21.500 --> 01:42:22.340
Are they still coming in?

2093
01:42:25.300 --> 01:42:27.140
Yeah, there's about 20 seconds left probably.

2094
01:42:27.980 --> 01:42:28.340
Okay.

2095
01:42:29.260 --> 01:42:30.140
Just hold on a sec.

2096
01:42:32.180 --> 01:42:32.940
Hold on a sec.

2097
01:42:32.940 --> 01:42:37.420
As people are coming in, we still have over a hundred people left,

2098
01:42:37.460 --> 01:42:40.180
even an hour and 45 minutes in guys.

2099
01:42:40.180 --> 01:42:40.580
I'm sorry.

2100
01:42:40.580 --> 01:42:41.460
Tonight was long.

2101
01:42:41.660 --> 01:42:42.020
Sorry.

2102
01:42:42.020 --> 01:42:42.660
Not sorry.

2103
01:42:42.660 --> 01:42:46.980
Because the bottom line is, is that this is going to be very.

2104
01:42:47.620 --> 01:42:49.340
Life-changing if we apply it.

2105
01:42:49.980 --> 01:42:53.780
And so I want you to check in, check in, in your groups, you know,

2106
01:42:53.820 --> 01:42:58.260
encourage each other, provoke one another to really send our words out

2107
01:42:58.260 --> 01:43:01.700
the way that we want things to go, not just for ourselves, but for others.

2108
01:43:01.700 --> 01:43:06.500
As God is, God impresses us to do it, include and ask God to search the

2109
01:43:06.500 --> 01:43:07.900
deep waters of our heart, deep.

2110
01:43:08.380 --> 01:43:12.140
Searching deep calling to deep, seeing if there's anything in there that

2111
01:43:12.140 --> 01:43:14.900
needs to be healed, revealed and healed.

2112
01:43:15.340 --> 01:43:21.020
And then obviously, um, us coming into alignment as he heals us with the

2113
01:43:21.020 --> 01:43:26.220
storehouse of goodness that is in our hearts of his, and I wrote it down

2114
01:43:26.220 --> 01:43:28.180
here and we'll end with this.

2115
01:43:28.980 --> 01:43:35.020
Um, Hey Google, what time is speaking his blessings, his plans and

2116
01:43:35.020 --> 01:43:38.780
purposes of your life, gratitude, speaking about his faithfulness,

2117
01:43:38.780 --> 01:43:41.740
speaking from faith and speaking from grace, right?

2118
01:43:41.740 --> 01:43:42.660
Speaking life.

2119
01:43:43.060 --> 01:43:43.580
All right.

2120
01:43:43.900 --> 01:43:44.140
All right.

2121
01:43:44.140 --> 01:43:46.180
Father God, we thank you for what we heard tonight.

2122
01:43:46.380 --> 01:43:47.340
Help us to do it.

2123
01:43:47.540 --> 01:43:51.340
If there's anything that's polluting us, there's anything that's defiling us

2124
01:43:51.620 --> 01:43:55.340
that we are taking in because then it's then coming out of us, whether it's

2125
01:43:55.620 --> 01:44:00.020
media, whether it's, um, any friendships that's just coming into my spirit right

2126
01:44:00.020 --> 01:44:04.140
now, uh, friendships with negative people that when we come away from them, we find

2127
01:44:04.140 --> 01:44:08.260
ourselves speaking negativity and speaking death, speaking criticism and judgment,

2128
01:44:08.260 --> 01:44:14.020
even racism and sexism, uh, nationalism, politicism, father, we ask God that you

2129
01:44:14.020 --> 01:44:18.260
would give us the courage to cut those friendships off, Lord, and you will

2130
01:44:18.260 --> 01:44:22.340
replace those spots in our lives with people who are going to speak life over

2131
01:44:22.340 --> 01:44:26.980
us to us, and that we are going to be able to do that as well, Lord, we thank

2132
01:44:26.980 --> 01:44:31.460
you, God, that anything and everything that's keeping us from manifesting

2133
01:44:31.780 --> 01:44:37.780
suddenly, uh, of your plans and purposes for our lives that you would reveal and

2134
01:44:37.780 --> 01:44:39.220
heal, show us what it is.

2135
01:44:39.460 --> 01:44:42.420
Help us God come into alignment with heaven in Jesus name.

2136
01:44:42.500 --> 01:44:42.900
Amen.

2137
01:44:43.180 --> 01:44:43.500
All right.

2138
01:44:43.500 --> 01:44:44.340
Appreciate all of you.

2139
01:44:44.340 --> 01:44:45.620
This is available to replay.

2140
01:44:45.660 --> 01:44:47.420
Try to put some of these notes up for you guys too.

2141
01:44:47.420 --> 01:44:48.180
I know you like that.

2142
01:44:48.380 --> 01:44:49.020
I'll see you soon.

2143
01:44:49.060 --> 01:44:49.260
Bye.
