00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:25.400
Did anybody come with any questions from this week or, I don't know, anything that maybe

2
00:00:25.400 --> 00:00:30.600
y'all have been processing this week and been able to see how the Lord's come through

3
00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:40.520
for you in certain areas or anything, because I forgot I was going to have some things prepared

4
00:00:40.520 --> 00:00:44.800
like questions or things that I noticed that people have been talking about that I could

5
00:00:44.800 --> 00:00:46.680
start with, but I forgot to do that.

6
00:00:46.680 --> 00:00:49.880
So if you give me a second, I'm sure I can come up with something.

7
00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:54.480
But in the meantime, does anyone have any questions?

8
00:00:54.480 --> 00:01:01.160
I don't have a question, but I have a comment.

9
00:01:01.160 --> 00:01:02.160
Yes.

10
00:01:02.160 --> 00:01:03.160
You want to comment?

11
00:01:03.160 --> 00:01:06.160
Love a comment.

12
00:01:06.160 --> 00:01:08.480
Okay.

13
00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:15.000
And this came from a personal conversation, but I'm fine with sharing it as long as you're

14
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:16.000
okay.

15
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:22.320
Ashley, it's not really about you, but just she was teaching me about how the spirit heals

16
00:01:22.320 --> 00:01:30.680
the soul and we don't even know how, and just releasing things.

17
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:35.680
And so I just kind of, I mean, I don't know if you really told me how to do it, but I

18
00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:41.800
just kind of figured out, you know, well, I need to release the negative things I'm

19
00:01:41.800 --> 00:01:52.000
feeling, the typical emotional responses and release those.

20
00:01:52.000 --> 00:01:56.360
And then I just kind of talked myself through it.

21
00:01:56.360 --> 00:02:03.760
It was like, I went to bed one night and, well, I remember you said, think about positive

22
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:11.400
things when you, you know, just think about the good, but I went to bed one night and

23
00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:17.840
I heard other people talk about and done a little bit myself, but I just, I gave my spirit

24
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:21.720
permission to heal my soul while I was asleep.

25
00:02:21.720 --> 00:02:29.680
And it's really been, I can tell a big difference and, and just, I mean, it's like a huge difference

26
00:02:29.680 --> 00:02:30.680
really.

27
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:40.240
And, you know, I couldn't really tell you what it is or was, but it's like you said,

28
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:47.120
you don't have to know what the problem is or the wounding is in your soul for your spirit

29
00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:48.120
to heal it.

30
00:02:48.120 --> 00:02:57.120
And at some point, you know, it may be revealed to you, but anyway, so it's just, it's been

31
00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:01.960
a really interesting experience to kind of follow that process through.

32
00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:06.160
And I don't know if I did it right, but it worked for me.

33
00:03:07.160 --> 00:03:08.160
No, no, absolutely.

34
00:03:08.160 --> 00:03:09.160
That's it.

35
00:03:09.160 --> 00:03:10.640
Because, and you're right.

36
00:03:10.640 --> 00:03:15.320
Just kind of the same way that you thought, okay, yeah, but how do I actually do it?

37
00:03:15.320 --> 00:03:19.600
And then when you, when you did it, you're like, okay, I don't even know if I did it

38
00:03:19.600 --> 00:03:20.600
right.

39
00:03:20.600 --> 00:03:25.080
I mean, that's, that's the thing is that's why it's hard to describe because we want

40
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:27.600
something kind of to be able to grab a hold up.

41
00:03:27.600 --> 00:03:31.800
Like, but I keep referring to a sink our teeth into like, yeah, but what do I do?

42
00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:33.280
Or how am I going to feel?

43
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:34.280
Or how do I know?

44
00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:36.080
How can I measure that?

45
00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:43.800
I, I followed the process and that I've actually, you know, and what time, what's the standard

46
00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:47.120
that I can measure it against?

47
00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:52.680
And if there's, that's the thing is with the spirit, there's not those things, which is

48
00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:56.360
why we like the soul, which is why we'd like to operate out of the tree, the knowledge

49
00:03:56.360 --> 00:04:00.240
of good and evil, because there's like this system of measurement and we're so used to

50
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:05.400
operating in a system in which there's something that we can sneak our teeth into.

51
00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:09.000
There's something that with a substance that we can grab a hold up to give ourselves the

52
00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:11.920
assurance that I'm on the right path.

53
00:04:11.920 --> 00:04:17.839
I'm doing it right and make sure I don't do it wrong and that I'm going to get the result.

54
00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:26.880
I mean, all of that is so, um, is so ingrained in our habit of thinking and expectation that

55
00:04:26.880 --> 00:04:31.480
it's very difficult for us to shift ourselves out of that, to receive something in the spirit

56
00:04:31.480 --> 00:04:37.920
that we're like, well, for, especially in the beginning stages, I'm having a hard time

57
00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:41.920
even like understanding how to verbalize it to someone else.

58
00:04:41.920 --> 00:04:47.360
So, so that's why sometimes it's difficult when, you know, for, when I explain this for

59
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:51.680
people to actually grab a hold of and know to have now to know how to actually start

60
00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:52.680
on it.

61
00:04:52.680 --> 00:04:55.760
But what you did it exactly the way that we should step out into the spirit, which is

62
00:04:56.560 --> 00:04:57.560
I'm going to go for it.

63
00:04:57.560 --> 00:04:58.560
Don't really know what I'm doing.

64
00:04:58.560 --> 00:04:59.560
Don't know what it's.

65
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.840
look like, don't know how I'm supposed to feel, don't know if I'm supposed to feel anything.

66
00:05:04.840 --> 00:05:09.320
In other words, we're stepping into an unknown with the Lord, and we're just journeying.

67
00:05:09.320 --> 00:05:13.520
And while we're on the journey, sometimes we're like looking for milestones, and they

68
00:05:13.520 --> 00:05:17.280
don't occur in this spirit in the same way that they do in the soul.

69
00:05:17.280 --> 00:05:21.440
And so then it makes us really feel off kilter, like, is it going right?

70
00:05:21.440 --> 00:05:24.400
But yeah, no, what you did is exactly right.

71
00:05:24.400 --> 00:05:29.760
It's just kind of like you hear about something, and then you make a choice.

72
00:05:29.760 --> 00:05:31.680
I'm going to step into that.

73
00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:37.360
And so you do, and you just, and you just intentionally step into it without your soul

74
00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:43.240
knowing what you're going to step in, you make an intentional shift, like this is where

75
00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:47.760
my intention is now going, even though I don't know how to get there, how to step into it,

76
00:05:47.760 --> 00:05:48.760
whatever.

77
00:05:48.760 --> 00:05:49.760
It's an intention shift.

78
00:05:49.760 --> 00:05:51.960
And then the spirit just kind of takes over.

79
00:05:51.960 --> 00:05:55.200
So know that that's perfect.

80
00:05:55.200 --> 00:05:58.560
And I said it was really good.

81
00:05:58.560 --> 00:05:59.560
Good.

82
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:08.280
Yeah, and it's so effortless, and it's so peaceful, and it's so easy.

83
00:06:08.280 --> 00:06:14.240
And yeah, I didn't know what to expect.

84
00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:20.960
But it was just like, well, I've done all the other programs and processes, and I'm

85
00:06:20.960 --> 00:06:24.920
still a stinking mess.

86
00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:32.840
And, you know, time just keeps passing, you think how much longer before I'm put back

87
00:06:32.840 --> 00:06:33.840
together.

88
00:06:33.840 --> 00:06:44.800
And I have to say that just that one little interaction with the spirit, and has probably

89
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:54.400
changed me more in effortlessly while I was sleeping, than any other, like intensive inner

90
00:06:54.400 --> 00:07:01.440
healing program I've, and I've been through just about any one of them that you can name.

91
00:07:01.440 --> 00:07:08.800
You know, I've been a Christian for 27 years and came out of Catholicism, and intense legalism

92
00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:14.960
and, you know, and just a very dysfunctional background.

93
00:07:14.960 --> 00:07:22.720
And growing up just really hadn't, I mean, my soul was just trampled.

94
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:30.560
And so I had no grid for living life as a, just, you know, it's all relational, it comes

95
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:35.120
out in relational stuff, and relationships were just like, forget it.

96
00:07:35.200 --> 00:07:37.600
So, yeah, I'm excited.

97
00:07:37.600 --> 00:07:45.520
And I can tell just in a short time, few days, how my reaction and response to other people

98
00:07:45.520 --> 00:07:48.560
is very, very, very different.

99
00:07:48.560 --> 00:07:51.680
So I'm excited.

100
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:53.360
I'm excited for you too.

101
00:07:53.360 --> 00:08:03.600
Yeah, and just as an encouragement to everyone, you know, I, I am, and, and sharing with y'all

102
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:12.240
the things that has, that the Lord has revealed to me, sometimes through other people, sometimes,

103
00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:14.240
sometimes just from the Lord.

104
00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:17.840
And I still walk in these things, I still walk out.

105
00:08:17.840 --> 00:08:22.000
So the things that you're, you know, you're talking about, about like praying, and asking,

106
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:27.680
you know, the Spirit to, to shift when the soul doesn't know what to do.

107
00:08:27.680 --> 00:08:33.600
I've got some things that I am trusting the Lord for, meaning like, I'm having to choose

108
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:37.840
to believe that it's true, and choose to believe that He's that good, and choose to believe

109
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:39.440
that He's that loving.

110
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:42.559
And especially the past few days, there have been some things.

111
00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:47.200
Anything right, but because you draw near to God, and He flees from you.

112
00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:56.640
And I think when you, like, are amazed and really start believing the finished work of

113
00:08:56.640 --> 00:09:01.840
Christ, that it is finished, there's like no room for the enemy in that.

114
00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:03.440
There's just no more room.

115
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:11.680
And so one of the gals who I, I really genuinely like, talks about the enemy all the time.

116
00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:17.520
And I have never said anything to her, but she continually asks me what I think.

117
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:21.920
But then, and she's so great, you guys, and you know how, you know how it is, she, the

118
00:09:21.920 --> 00:09:24.000
thing is that she's as talkative as I am.

119
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:28.720
So I feel like I can say this, because this is my own vice, but it's like you ask somebody

120
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:32.320
their opinion, and then you just keep talking about whatever it is you're talking about,

121
00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:36.240
you know, like rest, and listen, and learn, and be humble, or whatever.

122
00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:46.240
Okay, so she is very much in, she is very much consumed with the, the serious battle

123
00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:49.680
that her family has been through the last several years.

124
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:53.200
And she talks about the enemy so much, and gives credit to the enemy.

125
00:09:53.840 --> 00:09:59.840
Specifically, here's my question, specifically that when you are on the path

126
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:06.160
that God has for you. The oppression of the enemy is part of the proof that you're where

127
00:10:06.800 --> 00:10:13.120
God has you because the enemy won't fight you if you're off course, which is a whole mentality in

128
00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:19.440
itself that you're off course versus on course. Okay. But like that's part of your confirmation

129
00:10:19.440 --> 00:10:24.640
is that everything goes to hell in a handbasket. Like, all right, I'm where I'm supposed to be

130
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:32.320
because it's worse than ever. And she has asked me several times about it, like in one-on-one

131
00:10:32.320 --> 00:10:36.880
situations or in our small group settings, because we're both on leadership and that kind of thing.

132
00:10:36.880 --> 00:10:46.880
And I'll get to say like, well, why do you give him so much credit? Or like, why do you think he

133
00:10:46.880 --> 00:10:53.120
has so much room to do this? And then it's like a whole rabbit trail. And she has experienced a lot

134
00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:57.920
of pain and a lot of oppression. So that is very real. And I do not want to belittle that at all,

135
00:10:57.920 --> 00:11:10.400
but I'm looking for verbiage to encourage her without like, without being like,

136
00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:17.040
all you do is talk about the enemy and think about the enemy. And, and, and, and like you,

137
00:11:17.040 --> 00:11:23.520
like today she made this post, her grocery cart fell over in the parking lot of the grocery store.

138
00:11:23.520 --> 00:11:29.760
And she's like, this is just Satan. And I'm like, or it's top heavy. I don't know. Like,

139
00:11:32.400 --> 00:11:38.400
oh, I'm just wondering, like, and I know it's totally as the Holy Spirit leads,

140
00:11:38.400 --> 00:11:46.960
but I do also wonder, like, how do you take someone who just sees the enemy in every negative

141
00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:53.040
thing and go and, and really pull out the finished work of Christ to them? And this, I'm telling you,

142
00:11:53.040 --> 00:11:59.920
this is a Jesus loving girl. She is, she is no preschooler in the faith. Like the girl has

143
00:11:59.920 --> 00:12:05.760
been there, you know, she knows the word and stuff, but she it's, she's just consumed by this.

144
00:12:05.760 --> 00:12:11.040
And I feel like I might have an opportunity to help with some freedom in that area. If I

145
00:12:12.320 --> 00:12:19.040
could think of a way to just say, what if it's not, and let like the Holy Spirit work some of

146
00:12:19.040 --> 00:12:26.960
that out, can you help with verbiage in that? What do you see about how the enemy gets room

147
00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:33.040
to oppress us? And where do you see the freedom in that and all of that?

148
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:41.520
Um, so I agree with you, the, uh, you know, like we've talked about so many times, the more that

149
00:12:41.520 --> 00:12:47.040
we focus on the negative, the, the bigger that it gets same thing with the enemy. I, I, I have

150
00:12:47.040 --> 00:12:51.520
people that I talk to that do the same thing. Every time I talk to them, they talk, they're

151
00:12:51.520 --> 00:12:55.120
always talking about the enemy and how powerful he is and, oh, my God, he's doing this. And

152
00:12:55.120 --> 00:12:59.120
I'm like, goodness, you know, I'm not going to let him do that. And we're just going to tell

153
00:12:59.120 --> 00:13:02.960
him what for, and cause I'm stronger than him and dah, dah, dah. But dadgummit, they're still

154
00:13:02.960 --> 00:13:07.440
talking about him. They're talking about how they're overpowering him and how they've overcome

155
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:10.960
him. But dadgummit, they still bring him up. And I'm like, you don't have to talk about him anymore.

156
00:13:10.960 --> 00:13:17.440
You know, just ignore him, you know, in very simplistic terms. So as far, so I agree with

157
00:13:17.440 --> 00:13:22.080
you in that the more that we understand that we're here, the more that we understand that we're one

158
00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:26.720
with Christ, then the, everything's been placed under Christ, under his feet. So therefore

159
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:32.560
everything's under our feet, including Satan. So because there is no more spiritual warfare

160
00:13:32.560 --> 00:13:37.200
from that perspective, there's spiritual warfare. If we put ourselves down here in the soul

161
00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:43.120
and then we're fighting and then yes, he's got his strategies are more powerful and he's,

162
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:48.080
and he's been around longer and, you know, he can outsmart us and so many things because,

163
00:13:48.080 --> 00:13:52.640
and that's where down here, we have to learn all of the strategies, do all this inner healing,

164
00:13:52.640 --> 00:13:58.320
have all this deliverance, et cetera, et cetera. So as far as talking to people like that, I agree.

165
00:13:59.040 --> 00:14:03.280
It is a challenge and it has been a challenge for me. And one of the biggest challenges

166
00:14:03.280 --> 00:14:09.520
is the fact that I want to help people because I understand that they can walk in a, in an amount

167
00:14:09.520 --> 00:14:14.880
of freedom that they're not walking in. And I desire, and what I have to realize is when I'm

168
00:14:14.880 --> 00:14:18.960
in there and I'm, when I'm listening to someone and they're talking to me, especially if they're

169
00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:27.360
asking for advice, then it is, it's, it's been challenging for me also to figure out how to

170
00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:36.320
respond. And what I have realized is I respond in the same way that I do if they don't ask for

171
00:14:36.320 --> 00:14:43.760
advice. I respond to them in the same way that I do with a, a child who doesn't know his identity

172
00:14:43.760 --> 00:14:49.200
or when I'm working with a client and not because of my, not because of my industry,

173
00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:54.320
not because of what I do, but because it's a customer because it's a client. In other words,

174
00:14:54.320 --> 00:14:59.840
it's another person that I'm interacting with, or it's one of my parents, or it's one of my.

175
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:08.320
friends. I mean, it's the exact same anyway. So it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter the situation.

176
00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:14.000
So that helped make it easier for me. And that is the fact that I always have to understand that

177
00:15:15.120 --> 00:15:22.080
to see everyone like this, and to always talk to them like that. Yeah, as opposed to the you know,

178
00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:26.160
if someone someone can believe that they're broken, or they can believe that Satan is very

179
00:15:26.160 --> 00:15:30.640
powerful, either way, they're talking to you that like they're down here. So I always talk to them

180
00:15:30.640 --> 00:15:34.880
like they're up here. I don't talk to this person, even though this is how they're presenting to

181
00:15:34.880 --> 00:15:39.920
themselves to me, including the fact Hey, I'm a strong Christian. I know what's what I know the

182
00:15:39.920 --> 00:15:45.440
walls of the enemy. I'm very aware of him. I'm always on the defensive. I understand his strategies.

183
00:15:45.440 --> 00:15:52.560
I know how to fight him. It's still down here. And they're not down there. They're up here. So I

184
00:15:52.560 --> 00:15:56.960
refuse to talk to this person. And I always talk to this person, I always talk to them up here.

185
00:15:56.960 --> 00:16:04.080
And then they'll naturally over time rise. And the way that I do that is instead of affirming

186
00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:10.480
that affirming their talk about the enemy, which gets me talking about the enemy,

187
00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:17.280
I constantly refer to who they are. But they'll agree with all my word, you know, you're you're

188
00:16:17.280 --> 00:16:21.760
you're one in Christ, and you're this and you're that as opposed to telling them how everything

189
00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:28.720
that they're saying isn't true. Yeah. Because that can that can make people upset that can make

190
00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:35.200
people feel like we like we're not aware, like we're naive, and we're not aware of how powerful

191
00:16:35.200 --> 00:16:40.560
he is. And all of that. So in other words, we don't know how and that we don't understand how

192
00:16:40.560 --> 00:16:48.720
bad their life is. Yes, that is, it's like, you don't get it. And it's like, okay. Yeah,

193
00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:54.720
yes, that's exactly so. And I'm glad you mentioned that. Because when I talk to them up here,

194
00:16:54.720 --> 00:17:02.720
I don't ever devalue that I don't ever talk about it in such a way that I am devaluing or ignoring

195
00:17:03.920 --> 00:17:10.640
how difficult their life is, or the fact that Oh, does that make sense? Like, is it I'm saying that

196
00:17:10.640 --> 00:17:16.480
Oh, everything is actually hunky dory for you. Yeah, really, their life, their life is evidenced

197
00:17:16.480 --> 00:17:21.359
very differently. So I always acknowledge that, but I taught I just constantly talk them up.

198
00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:26.560
They're like, Oh, my word, you know, I greatly admire this in you. And you you're always like

199
00:17:26.560 --> 00:17:32.720
this, and you're like this, you're like this, you're like this. And, and, and, and it's so

200
00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:38.880
neat how God says that we're like, that we're like x, y, and z. And I see you stand in that all the

201
00:17:38.880 --> 00:17:42.960
time. And whatever. In other words, we're strengthening their understanding of who it is

202
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:46.880
that they are, which is the very thing that they've lost that they make that makes them feel

203
00:17:46.880 --> 00:17:51.920
powerless. So if I'm always talking to them about how strong that they are, and the things that I

204
00:17:51.920 --> 00:17:56.640
see in them that I that I admire about how they're following the Lord or how they're obeying him in

205
00:17:57.280 --> 00:18:04.960
always believing how, and always believing their position in God, or their, their power over Satan,

206
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:10.880
or I don't know the fact that Satan is under their feet, and whatever. In other words, I'm

207
00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:17.600
constantly talking to affirming who they are in everything that they agree with, then that keeps

208
00:18:17.600 --> 00:18:27.200
me from having to talk about Satan. And it also keeps me from sounding like I'm devaluing or

209
00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:35.600
ignoring how, how difficult and challenging their lives are. I don't know if I'm making any sense.

210
00:18:35.600 --> 00:18:39.920
I mean, I mean, sorry, I don't know if what I'm saying is actually making sense in the practical,

211
00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:45.440
if you can actually see what I'm saying, actually put into practice in an everyday conversation,

212
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:50.560
like someone's just asked you something, and they're waiting. Yeah, I don't know if what I'm

213
00:18:50.560 --> 00:18:57.840
saying is, is, is resonating, or if I'm talking too high level, because I know what I'm saying.

214
00:18:57.840 --> 00:19:02.480
And if I'm talking so level, I'm actually not making it practical. Well, I think I'm leaving

215
00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:10.560
gaps. Yeah, one thing that she and I have specifically bonded over is last year,

216
00:19:10.560 --> 00:19:20.240
our family had a very difficult year. And I fought a lot of fear. But I went,

217
00:19:21.040 --> 00:19:27.440
like, because of what the Lord had already done in me and for me, I went to him, like,

218
00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:35.920
I don't understand where this is coming from, because I know that the enemy can't get in. So

219
00:19:35.920 --> 00:19:43.520
I need you to show me what's going on. Because this is, you know, the thief comes to steal,

220
00:19:43.520 --> 00:19:48.400
kill and destroy. This is, you know, stuff getting eaten up. This is, this is lack,

221
00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:55.360
this is waste. This is, this has the enemy written all over it. But I'm over here in the kingdom.

222
00:19:55.360 --> 00:19:59.840
So I don't understand why this is reaching and melding and that kind of a

223
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.300
thing. And so she and I had kind of bonded over circumstances.

224
00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:08.880
And, um, so she would start talking about the enemy and I would,

225
00:20:09.680 --> 00:20:13.720
I would kind of what you're saying, but I don't think I nailed it by any means.

226
00:20:14.080 --> 00:20:16.880
I would say something like,

227
00:20:17.280 --> 00:20:22.000
I'm just so glad that I know that God has given me back the

228
00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:26.960
keys to the kingdom and that nothing can tear that away from me.

229
00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:31.720
So I don't have to really worry about losing anything.

230
00:20:32.040 --> 00:20:34.200
You know, I got to worry about losing my kids.

231
00:20:34.200 --> 00:20:36.360
I don't have to worry about losing my home.

232
00:20:36.360 --> 00:20:38.520
I have to worry about losing my marriage.

233
00:20:38.800 --> 00:20:43.080
I'm so glad that the Lord has given me that. And she would be like,

234
00:20:43.480 --> 00:20:46.000
uh, yeah. And then like, keep going.

235
00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:50.080
Is that what you're talking about in a way? Or are you talking about,

236
00:20:50.560 --> 00:20:54.080
I would, instead of affirming a truth,

237
00:20:54.080 --> 00:20:59.000
I would speak to her spirit and affirm her spirit to take it up to

238
00:20:59.000 --> 00:21:01.480
the spirit level instead of to be in the soul level.

239
00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:05.680
Well, I think that what you, that what you said was great. I think it's, yeah,

240
00:21:05.680 --> 00:21:08.480
because you're, you're talking about, you know, I'm so glad that this is,

241
00:21:08.480 --> 00:21:12.920
this is who we are, that God says this and God says that. And, and,

242
00:21:13.200 --> 00:21:16.920
and, and et cetera. So it's affirming the truth. And,

243
00:21:17.280 --> 00:21:22.000
and another thing that really helps if she's talking about her own self and

244
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:25.600
it's not about your circumstances, didn't you talk about her circumstances,

245
00:21:26.040 --> 00:21:30.160
then, then it's affirming her in,

246
00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:35.320
but how do I say it's taking truth and making it personal to her.

247
00:21:35.600 --> 00:21:38.240
Right. About the truth. That's true for all of us.

248
00:21:38.800 --> 00:21:41.480
And then talking about how she specifically,

249
00:21:41.720 --> 00:21:44.920
how you see certain things about her and the spirit that are like this.

250
00:21:45.320 --> 00:21:48.760
And you don't even have to talk about it in spiritual terms. Yeah.

251
00:21:49.040 --> 00:21:50.040
That's another thing. It,

252
00:21:50.040 --> 00:21:53.000
because sometimes when we talk about things in spiritual terms,

253
00:21:53.000 --> 00:21:57.080
it can kind of, uh, turn on this spiritual, uh,

254
00:21:57.120 --> 00:22:01.280
the spiritual file in our mind. Everybody goes, yes, yes.

255
00:22:02.040 --> 00:22:06.040
I'll start saying the right godly things and we're not living them anyway.

256
00:22:06.200 --> 00:22:10.720
So we've all now been, we're all of a sudden the conversations turns to this,

257
00:22:11.080 --> 00:22:15.680
this, this formula and this vocabulary that we all know to

258
00:22:15.720 --> 00:22:16.560
use.

259
00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:21.720
And nobody's helped because there's a reason why we all know it and nobody,

260
00:22:21.880 --> 00:22:23.520
but people aren't believing it.

261
00:22:23.720 --> 00:22:28.720
So it kind of shifts us into that box where we know the right things to say,

262
00:22:28.720 --> 00:22:30.920
but nobody's believing it. So we have to kind of,

263
00:22:31.080 --> 00:22:34.920
so it's sometimes good to even not talk about it in spiritual terms. I do that.

264
00:22:35.200 --> 00:22:39.120
There's this particular person that I talk to all the time that, uh,

265
00:22:39.160 --> 00:22:41.800
that does this, that they're always talking about the enemy.

266
00:22:42.080 --> 00:22:46.320
And so I finally have noticed that what makes that, that, yeah,

267
00:22:46.320 --> 00:22:49.320
with them, a lot of times I am talking about the spiritual stuff,

268
00:22:49.640 --> 00:22:53.960
but I talk about it in terms of, um, how much God loves them,

269
00:22:54.080 --> 00:22:57.040
how much I see this in them. And Oh my word, you're like this.

270
00:22:57.040 --> 00:22:59.680
And I just so admire this and dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah.

271
00:22:59.960 --> 00:23:02.040
And it's always touched me and it's touched my spirit.

272
00:23:02.040 --> 00:23:05.080
And I really appreciate the fact that, you know, when you say this,

273
00:23:05.080 --> 00:23:05.920
that and the other, you know,

274
00:23:05.920 --> 00:23:10.800
it really touches me and it means a lot to me. And, um, I sense God's,

275
00:23:10.840 --> 00:23:15.240
God's presence whenever you talk like this. And I sensed it. In other words,

276
00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:19.040
I'm affirming them in something that just kind of makes the,

277
00:23:19.040 --> 00:23:24.080
their spirit start to realize it and remember their identity because all

278
00:23:24.080 --> 00:23:28.040
the things we're remembering our identity and remember our identity.

279
00:23:28.240 --> 00:23:31.960
It doesn't even have to be specific to the situation that they're talking about

280
00:23:31.960 --> 00:23:34.000
related to how the enemy's attacking them.

281
00:23:34.280 --> 00:23:36.640
It can seem like it's in a totally different area,

282
00:23:36.800 --> 00:23:39.720
but the whole reason why they're struggling with the enemy is because they've

283
00:23:39.720 --> 00:23:42.800
lost their sense of identity. So my goodness,

284
00:23:42.800 --> 00:23:46.640
we could talk about their identity in so many different vocabulary words that

285
00:23:46.640 --> 00:23:49.920
have nothing whatsoever to do with the fact that the enemy's attacking their

286
00:23:49.920 --> 00:23:53.400
children or the enemy's attacking their marriage or whatever other things that

287
00:23:53.400 --> 00:23:57.440
you hadn't said that you and, and she, you mentioned, you mentioned some words.

288
00:23:57.440 --> 00:23:59.680
You said children, marriage. I don't remember what else she mentioned,

289
00:24:00.040 --> 00:24:02.320
but they don't even have to be talked about.

290
00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:06.120
It could just be talked about like who she is and the fact that God loves her,

291
00:24:06.280 --> 00:24:09.080
that any of us that are struggling with spiritual warfare,

292
00:24:09.720 --> 00:24:14.320
we do not believe that God loves us as much as he actually does as good as he

293
00:24:14.320 --> 00:24:18.400
actually is. Yeah. Yeah.

294
00:24:18.440 --> 00:24:21.200
It's very basic things that have nothing whatsoever to do with the fact that

295
00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:24.720
someone's talking about how the enemy is attacking their children's,

296
00:24:25.080 --> 00:24:29.480
I don't know, health or whatever her, her issue was. I don't know.

297
00:24:29.480 --> 00:24:30.320
I don't know what it is,

298
00:24:30.600 --> 00:24:35.040
but so it sounds like it's talking about nothing whatsoever to do with the

299
00:24:35.040 --> 00:24:37.400
child, nothing whatsoever to do about health.

300
00:24:37.600 --> 00:24:41.880
And yet it's actually spiritually addressing the exact problem that she has

301
00:24:42.160 --> 00:24:45.320
that's got her thinking like this. So it's dealing with the root issue.

302
00:24:46.640 --> 00:24:48.160
Does that, does that make sense?

303
00:24:48.480 --> 00:24:51.320
Yeah, it helps so much. And you just reminded me of something.

304
00:24:51.360 --> 00:24:55.720
I remember that the Lord showed me like way back when, and it was like,

305
00:24:55.840 --> 00:25:00.080
it was a pastor and he was talking about because he loves you, he will rescue.

306
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:07.440
you and I remember hearing that and being like I never equated him rescuing

307
00:25:07.440 --> 00:25:12.880
me with his love it was always because I'm in the right place at the right

308
00:25:12.880 --> 00:25:16.840
time doing what I'm supposed to do he will rescue me you know it was always

309
00:25:16.840 --> 00:25:24.920
like you good get good do bad bad and but that is so true it really is when

310
00:25:24.920 --> 00:25:33.320
you go because he loves me he will not fail me like I will whatever this is he

311
00:25:33.320 --> 00:25:38.800
loves me he will he has overcome this I'm just gonna learn what my inheritance

312
00:25:38.800 --> 00:25:44.080
is in this spot and apply it or whatever whatever your like verbiage is for that

313
00:25:44.080 --> 00:25:50.360
that really is so much of the root of it and no I think that helps a lot thank

314
00:25:50.360 --> 00:25:55.920
you so much the biggest thing the biggest help that we can get to anyone

315
00:25:55.920 --> 00:26:02.960
whether it be a child a parent of ours a client a peer a pastor's wife you know

316
00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:08.440
whoever it is is always to talk to their spirit not the situation yeah she's

317
00:26:08.440 --> 00:26:12.640
talking about the situation well the root of that is the fact that the spirit

318
00:26:12.640 --> 00:26:16.520
isn't believing or the soul isn't believing where the spirit actually is

319
00:26:17.520 --> 00:26:23.120
that it's actually easy and they can't get mad yeah you're not talking about

320
00:26:23.120 --> 00:26:25.960
the issue at all so it's not like you're talking about the issue in a way that

321
00:26:25.960 --> 00:26:28.920
they actually disagree with you're not talking about you're just talking about

322
00:26:28.920 --> 00:26:33.320
wonderful they are now you always say it in a way where it's relative to the

323
00:26:33.320 --> 00:26:38.960
conversation like not like hey I'm like talking about different subjects now you

324
00:26:38.960 --> 00:26:41.440
know you're a very good conversationalist Holly you know how to

325
00:26:41.440 --> 00:26:47.620
like but if you do that that's really what everybody wants that's what

326
00:26:47.620 --> 00:26:51.720
settling everyone's spirit all of this other stuff is behavioral problems

327
00:26:51.720 --> 00:26:57.200
because we have a sense of a loss of identity and because we have a sense of

328
00:26:57.200 --> 00:27:01.200
a loss of identity we have all these behavioral problems that we're using in

329
00:27:01.200 --> 00:27:05.000
order to try to get back the identity that we lost but if we regain that

330
00:27:05.000 --> 00:27:10.720
identity the behavioral problems go away and it didn't matter for you know two or

331
00:27:10.720 --> 00:27:16.520
fifty five yeah it's just all the same thing yeah and then we always change and

332
00:27:16.520 --> 00:27:20.160
if we ever have any difficulty and I'm just throwing this out there because

333
00:27:20.160 --> 00:27:23.680
this is not the situation for you with the person you're talking about that I'm

334
00:27:23.680 --> 00:27:27.960
just gonna tie a relationship with to other people we talked to that might

335
00:27:27.960 --> 00:27:35.880
feel unlovable or unlikable it's this it if we change like for instance if we're

336
00:27:35.880 --> 00:27:40.960
struggling to see someone in the spirit so easily because maybe they don't talk

337
00:27:40.960 --> 00:27:45.680
in spiritual terms and we're really struggling yeah but how good how can I

338
00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:50.080
affirm them and who they are in the spirit because my goodness they're doing

339
00:27:50.080 --> 00:27:53.960
all these other things yeah I know but it's not what they do that determines

340
00:27:53.960 --> 00:27:57.420
who they are and it doesn't even indicate who they are we have to see

341
00:27:57.420 --> 00:28:01.880
someone actually in the spirit so we have to change our perspective in how

342
00:28:01.880 --> 00:28:06.200
we're seeing someone and when we do naturally everything that we do in

343
00:28:06.200 --> 00:28:10.560
relationship to that person and everything that we say will naturally be

344
00:28:10.560 --> 00:28:13.520
good and it will naturally be appropriate in this situation because

345
00:28:13.520 --> 00:28:17.080
we're always seeing them correctly so in other words if we all change ourselves

346
00:28:17.080 --> 00:28:22.600
and how we view ourselves and other people what our behavior will change

347
00:28:22.600 --> 00:28:26.720
what it is that we say and what we do will naturally change without us having

348
00:28:26.720 --> 00:28:30.360
to work for thinking of the right thing to do or say because we've changed what

349
00:28:30.360 --> 00:28:35.320
we believe and we've changed how we see other people then we naturally do and

350
00:28:35.320 --> 00:28:40.720
say everything correctly you know run that out there I'm really expanding on

351
00:28:40.720 --> 00:28:43.800
the question and saying by the way run into this situation with someone we

352
00:28:43.800 --> 00:28:49.880
don't like it's really hard to see you know who they are in the spirit that's

353
00:28:49.880 --> 00:28:53.800
what we can do we just work on ourselves not on them and then we can actually see

354
00:28:53.800 --> 00:28:57.360
who they are who they are in their spirit and I had to do that with them

355
00:28:57.360 --> 00:29:04.080
people that were oh my word that was so very difficult to like or to love once I

356
00:29:04.080 --> 00:29:08.800
saw him in the spirit and I changed myself everything changed so I loved

357
00:29:08.800 --> 00:29:12.480
them no matter what they said to me and then they started reacting according to

358
00:29:12.480 --> 00:29:15.880
who it is that I was it was declining to be and seeing them in there in my mind

359
00:29:15.880 --> 00:29:31.200
yes anyway anyway thank you thank you so it is 850 I'm good on time so if

360
00:29:31.200 --> 00:29:36.960
anyone has another question feel free to ask otherwise you know everyone can call

361
