1
00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:46.940
Okay.

2
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:11.000
Hey, Steph.

3
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:13.000
Oh, Steph and Cheryl.

4
00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:14.000
Oh, there we go.

5
00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:18.000
Okay.

6
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:20.000
How are you doing, Cheryl?

7
00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:21.000
Good.

8
00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:22.000
How are you?

9
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:27.000
Doing good.

10
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:31.000
Hey.

11
00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:33.000
Hey, there.

12
00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:37.000
There's a delay in the audio.

13
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:40.000
I saw you were live about,

14
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:43.000
that you did a live about soap.

15
00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:46.000
About how you got the, got the lemon soap.

16
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:48.000
Is that new?

17
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:49.000
For Young Living?

18
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:50.000
It is. Yeah.

19
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:53.000
They rolled it out a couple months ago.

20
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:54.000
Okay.

21
00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:58.000
Yeah.

22
00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:00.000
It's my first time trying it.

23
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:03.000
And so it's really good.

24
00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:06.000
It's like sweet and floral and lemony.

25
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:08.000
It's not overpowering, but it's like.

26
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:10.000
And it's refreshing.

27
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:11.000
Yeah.

28
00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:12.000
Well, that's nice.

29
00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:13.000
Yeah.

30
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:18.000
Yeah.

31
00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:20.000
That's really nice. Cause I know that, that,

32
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:22.000
I don't know.

33
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:23.000
I don't know.

34
00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:24.000
I don't know.

35
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:29.000
And so I try to avoid the thieves, which is fine because I actually do.

36
00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:37.000
I do the Norwex for my cleaning.

37
00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:40.000
I got started on that. Like, I don't know, four or five years ago.

38
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:41.000
And I've loved it.

39
00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:43.000
So I haven't honestly even tried that the other ones.

40
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:44.000
Cause I like the Norwex.

41
00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:47.000
I just like to just clean my water and my cloth.

42
00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:48.000
I don't know.

43
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:49.000
I don't know.

44
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.000
I haven't even tried the Norwex for the cleaning.

45
00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:53.000
But yeah.

46
00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:56.000
The thieves.

47
00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:01.000
The clove I have to be careful of.

48
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:03.000
And so I haven't even tried like the cleaning stuff.

49
00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:06.000
So it's exciting that they have something really nice smelling like.

50
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:12.000
Yeah.

51
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:13.000
Yeah.

52
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:17.000
Yeah.

53
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:20.000
And this one, I think, isn't going to dry.

54
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:26.000
Cause it has aloe and some other things to be more.

55
00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:29.000
Cause the thieves, so it can kind of dry my skin out.

56
00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:30.000
I have really great.

57
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:31.000
I'm excited about it.

58
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:32.000
Yeah.

59
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:33.000
Good.

60
00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:34.000
Good.

61
00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:35.000
Hey, Priscilla.

62
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:39.000
How are you doing?

63
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:42.000
Hey, I'm good. Sorry.

64
00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:43.000
I'm in the dark.

65
00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:45.000
Okay.

66
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:49.000
That's fine.

67
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:54.000
That's fine. People don't have to do video.

68
00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:55.000
And stuff was on here and we've lost stuff.

69
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:57.000
I hope that everything's okay. Technologically.

70
00:03:57.000 --> 00:03:58.000
But how are you doing?

71
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:00.000
I'm doing good. And no, I meant like, I'm literally in.

72
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:02.000
Yeah.

73
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:04.000
I figured you're literally in the dark. Yeah.

74
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:09.000
Carrie was in the dark the other day.

75
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:17.000
We were laughing about it.

76
00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:22.000
Turn left onto Pennsylvania six 25 South.

77
00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:24.000
Are you driving?

78
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:27.000
Yes, I am.

79
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:32.000
Oh, good night. I'm sorry.

80
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:37.000
No, it's fine. It's actually kind of nice.

81
00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:41.000
Yeah.

82
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:43.000
It's nine and my kids are still up.

83
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:45.000
Oh, I know.

84
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:46.000
Oh my.

85
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:55.000
You know, good luck tomorrow.

86
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:56.000
But yeah, Monty,

87
00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:59.000
we might have a little bit of an issue because he loves to talk to

88
00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:00.000
strangers. So.

89
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:01.000
Hello to him.

90
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:07.000
Hey, good to see you. This is my first time seeing you without a tennis bill.

91
00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:02.000
Yeah.

92
00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:18.000
Yes, I actually showered. I actually showered, so it feels good. I was a little sticky the last couple times we talked, so.

93
00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:27.000
Yes, so Renee and I were visiting earlier today, and I was joking about the fact that I always see her with her tennis visor on, because she's been playing tennis since she was 12.

94
00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:34.000
She's very good at it. I told her, as well, I enjoy playing tennis, but I'm not up to that caliber yet.

95
00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:39.000
But anyway, we were joking about the fact that every time I see her, she looks really puffy.

96
00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:45.000
She'll say, she should go to Harvard or something. She'll wear tennis, you know, a tennis gear on. Do you have a tennis skirt?

97
00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:48.000
Yeah, I have lots of tennis skirts.

98
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:49.000
Yeah, you do.

99
00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:55.000
Well, it's a little bit easier to play, just anyway, than shorts, for me.

100
00:05:55.000 --> 00:05:56.000
Yeah.

101
00:05:56.000 --> 00:05:59.000
But I wear shorts, too, but mostly I wear tennis skirts, so.

102
00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:01.000
Yeah.

103
00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:13.000
Yeah, a friend of mine, my friend who plays tennis, she has a, she wears a tennis skirt, and so she was telling me about what she gets hers from.

104
00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:16.000
Oh, Steph, you're back.

105
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:22.000
We lost you for a second, and now you're here. Is everything okay?

106
00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:27.000
You look like you're in the dark.

107
00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:30.000
Yeah, I don't know. It does look like she's.

108
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:36.000
I know, because it shows that her microphone and her video are on, and yet I don't hear or see.

109
00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:39.000
Well, it doesn't have her name, so maybe.

110
00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:41.000
Who's Destiny?

111
00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:49.000
Well, like Priscilla, it doesn't look like she's joined with video yet, and so, but Steph looks like maybe she has.

112
00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:54.000
Yeah, connectivity issues.

113
00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:55.000
She's gone.

114
00:06:55.000 --> 00:07:05.000
Oh, it sounds like her connectivity is bad. Oh, poor thing. I caught that much before she left, and then I kicked her off again.

115
00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:18.000
Well, we can get started. Does anyone have, and then for the feedback, because there tends to be a feedback when there's more than one person on,

116
00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:26.000
I'll probably just have everyone muted, and then whoever wants to ask a question can just unmute themselves.

117
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:32.000
I've noticed that when we watch the videos later that that kind of helps, so.

118
00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:40.000
I don't have a question. I've got lots of questions, but this is y'all's time, so I won't pester you with my questions.

119
00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:51.000
So does anyone have anything that they wanted to, any thought that they wanted to start out with, anything that had been happening this week that was just kind of something that they,

120
00:07:51.000 --> 00:08:02.000
I don't know, just kind of struck them in their relationship with the Lord, or that the Lord was walking them through, revealing to them about scripture, revealing to them about, you know, their transition and their shift,

121
00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:15.000
or have a question about something that I touched on that you want further clarification, or something I haven't even brought up yet, and you're wondering about it,

122
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:27.000
because I've noticed that a lot of times y'all bring up questions that you think are unrelated, so you're really concerned about bringing it up, and so far we have not come across a single question that is unrelated,

123
00:08:27.000 --> 00:08:38.000
because remember that what we're talking about here is a foundation, so it's a foundation of everything, so there's really not anything that I can think of that would be unrelated, so.

124
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:43.000
Anyway, the floor is open. Does anyone have anything? Oh, we got Steph again.

125
00:08:43.000 --> 00:09:10.000
Ashley, I don't, this isn't a question, it's more kind of feedback from when we were messaging the other night, and you were talking about, like, actually talking my soul through releasing anxiety and whatnot, and the need for control, and allowing my spirit to heal it,

126
00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:28.000
and that was really helpful to me, like, several times the next day when things would come, when it would kind of rear its head again, I would just, you know, soul, it's okay to let it go, and that was really helpful, so thank you.

127
00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:48.000
All right, I appreciate the feedback. Thanks. Yeah, I've noticed that no one's ever told me that before, and the Lord just kind of gave me a vision. I think I explained that to y'all last year, gave me a vision about it, and I thought, oh my word, that's how it works.

128
00:09:48.000 --> 00:10:00.000
So interesting. So I tried to apply it, so I'm like, okay, well, all I've seen is a vision. I get the idea that the spirit, oh, I'm sorry, let me, you know, everybody.

129
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:08.760
that the spirit understands what to do,

130
00:10:08.760 --> 00:10:13.040
and the soul doesn't usually know,

131
00:10:13.040 --> 00:10:16.040
unless you go through a lot of work for the soul to figure it out.

132
00:10:16.040 --> 00:10:18.200
If the soul just gets out of the way and tell the soul,

133
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:20.040
hey, look, you're just fine,

134
00:10:20.040 --> 00:10:21.840
there's no reason to fear,

135
00:10:21.840 --> 00:10:24.800
it's all okay, and then the spirit come in and do it,

136
00:10:24.800 --> 00:10:29.960
then the Lord will begin to shift us without us even knowing.

137
00:10:29.960 --> 00:10:34.120
Yeah, I appreciate and I'm glad that it was helpful to you too.

138
00:10:34.120 --> 00:10:38.280
I've noticed that that right there so far has been one of

139
00:10:38.280 --> 00:10:43.520
the biggest things for my clients as it was for me too.

140
00:10:43.520 --> 00:10:48.120
It's like, oh my word, something so simple that I was not doing.

141
00:10:48.120 --> 00:10:50.640
That right there is the application, just the shift.

142
00:10:50.640 --> 00:10:53.480
What's really helpful is the fact we don't have to do anything,

143
00:10:53.480 --> 00:10:55.520
we just have to stop resisting.

144
00:10:55.520 --> 00:10:57.120
I'm glad that's helpful.

145
00:10:57.120 --> 00:10:58.360
I know it's helpful for me too.

146
00:10:59.080 --> 00:11:00.640
Okay, just let it go.

147
00:11:00.640 --> 00:11:06.080
Just the fact that whatever is going on,

148
00:11:06.080 --> 00:11:14.120
that I don't need to hold it up to an expectation,

149
00:11:14.120 --> 00:11:18.840
that I no longer need to think that whatever is happening,

150
00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:22.920
shouldn't be happening and just understand that,

151
00:11:22.920 --> 00:11:25.280
okay, well, this is the way that it's acting.

152
00:11:25.280 --> 00:11:28.200
Stop thinking it should be something different.

153
00:11:28.320 --> 00:11:30.760
Then just releasing it and then the Lord can come through

154
00:11:30.760 --> 00:11:35.320
and mostly transform me because that's the biggest issue.

155
00:11:35.320 --> 00:11:41.360
Then from that, then he can transform the outside circumstances sometimes.

156
00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:46.600
Am I coming through clear enough or am I jumping?

157
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:47.120
Am I fine?

158
00:11:47.120 --> 00:11:47.680
Okay, good.

159
00:11:47.680 --> 00:11:52.320
I wanted to make sure because my screen is jumping

160
00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:55.760
and I have noticed it do that sometimes and I don't know why.

161
00:11:56.480 --> 00:12:01.520
I think my computer maybe needs a little bit of rest.

162
00:12:01.520 --> 00:12:05.600
We all need rest, including objects.

163
00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:06.880
Anyway, thanks for the feedback.

164
00:12:06.880 --> 00:12:08.840
I'm glad that that helped you too.

165
00:12:08.840 --> 00:12:11.680
Every single person that I've talked through,

166
00:12:11.680 --> 00:12:15.240
boom, that all of a sudden does it for them and they switch.

167
00:12:15.240 --> 00:12:16.760
I know, isn't it though?

168
00:12:16.760 --> 00:12:20.400
It's like, oh, wow, why didn't we learn this in Sunday school, right?

169
00:12:20.400 --> 00:12:22.960
I need to start teaching my nieces that.

170
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:25.920
Like, they're in four.

171
00:12:25.920 --> 00:12:27.960
I'm going to have to start teaching them that.

172
00:12:27.960 --> 00:12:28.480
Yeah, Renee?

173
00:12:28.480 --> 00:12:28.960
I'm curious.

174
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:30.680
You said you had a vision.

175
00:12:30.680 --> 00:12:32.280
Like, I missed that call.

176
00:12:32.280 --> 00:12:34.400
I would love to hear.

177
00:12:34.400 --> 00:12:39.480
Or when you said the Lord kind of revealed that to you, what actually did he?

178
00:12:39.480 --> 00:12:43.360
I mean, if you can put it in word or picture, you know what I'm saying?

179
00:12:43.360 --> 00:12:46.040
Or did you already share that with everybody?

180
00:12:46.040 --> 00:12:52.160
No, no, no, that is, it's completely open for repeating.

181
00:12:52.160 --> 00:12:55.960
It actually was a, I'm trying to remember,

182
00:12:55.960 --> 00:12:59.040
I don't remember if this was an actual teaching idea or just something

183
00:12:59.040 --> 00:13:03.600
that I started telling people individually as the issue came up.

184
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:05.200
But it is going to be a teaching.

185
00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:07.920
And that is to make sure that everybody hears it.

186
00:13:07.920 --> 00:13:12.160
And that is the fact that when I, I got a vision last year

187
00:13:12.160 --> 00:13:15.600
where God showed me a full person.

188
00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:18.000
He showed me a spirit, soul, and body.

189
00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:22.960
And the body and soul were together.

190
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:24.840
And there was a wound.

191
00:13:24.840 --> 00:13:27.120
And a wound appeared outside the body.

192
00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:38.000
So the soul heard from God that God was giving the soul the opportunity

193
00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:40.280
and to heal the wound.

194
00:13:40.280 --> 00:13:43.760
And saying that the soul didn't have to wait on God to heal the wound.

195
00:13:43.800 --> 00:13:45.720
The soul having given the authority and the power

196
00:13:45.720 --> 00:13:47.840
to be able to heal its own wound.

197
00:13:47.840 --> 00:13:50.800
So the soul gets out, well, I say the soul,

198
00:13:50.800 --> 00:13:53.560
it was really God was saying that, hey, you being,

199
00:13:53.560 --> 00:13:57.600
you spirit, soul, body being, you have the power

200
00:13:57.600 --> 00:13:59.640
and the authority to be able to heal yourself.

201
00:13:59.640 --> 00:14:02.600
You don't have to pray and ask me to do it.

202
00:14:02.600 --> 00:14:04.400
You are already in me.

203
00:14:04.400 --> 00:14:08.160
And from that position, you can do it yourself.

204
00:14:08.160 --> 00:14:12.360
Because I'm teaching you to govern creation,

205
00:14:12.360 --> 00:14:16.160
to have dominion over creation, including the soul.

206
00:14:16.160 --> 00:14:18.440
Because the soul is creation as well.

207
00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:19.800
So we have dominion over the soul.

208
00:14:19.800 --> 00:14:21.400
The soul, just like the rest of creation,

209
00:14:21.400 --> 00:14:24.680
is crying out, groaning for the sense of God to be revealed.

210
00:14:24.680 --> 00:14:29.720
So anyway, the soul heard that direction from the Lord,

211
00:14:29.720 --> 00:14:31.120
got out of the body.

212
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:31.960
I watched it.

213
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:33.040
It got out of the body.

214
00:14:33.040 --> 00:14:34.080
It went over to the wound.

215
00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:36.280
And it started trying to fix it.

216
00:14:36.280 --> 00:14:40.960
And it started using all of these techniques

217
00:14:41.000 --> 00:14:45.520
that we think of in the physical realm will fix something.

218
00:14:45.520 --> 00:14:47.040
Like I think it used glue.

219
00:14:47.040 --> 00:14:48.120
It used all kinds of things.

220
00:14:48.120 --> 00:14:50.480
And so God, though, wasn't, didn't talk.

221
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:52.920
I could talk to the soul and it could hear me,

222
00:14:52.920 --> 00:14:54.360
but it couldn't hear God.

223
00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:56.800
God kept having to tell me, and I was telling the soul.

224
00:14:56.800 --> 00:15:00.200
So he, God kept, it was kind of.

225
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.120
like over the soul's shoulder, kind of telling me that won't work.

226
00:15:03.140 --> 00:15:04.680
What he's doing won't work.

227
00:15:05.040 --> 00:15:09.480
So I then repeat it to the soul and the soul's like, Oh, okay, well, if that won't

228
00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:12.200
work, then I guess I don't know what to do.

229
00:15:12.400 --> 00:15:15.600
So it leaves the wound, it gets back into the body.

230
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:20.720
And then all of a sudden, and so God was talking from this direction, in other

231
00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:25.160
words, heaven, then all of a sudden from that same place where God had been

232
00:15:25.160 --> 00:15:31.240
talking, that person's spirit, that being's spirit came out of heaven, took

233
00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:36.120
control and Lordship and not control, but took Lordship over the wound and just

234
00:15:36.120 --> 00:15:41.960
held the wound stood in in this, the spirit stood in its identity and simply

235
00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:47.280
by standing, it's an idea, its identity and identifying the wound to itself, the

236
00:15:47.280 --> 00:15:52.640
wound healed and those in the soul was standing there looking at it, watching

237
00:15:52.640 --> 00:15:55.400
the spirit doing it going, Oh, okay.

238
00:15:55.400 --> 00:15:56.800
I guess that's how it gets done.

239
00:15:57.480 --> 00:15:59.200
So that's the vision that I saw.

240
00:15:59.240 --> 00:16:03.600
And that's when I realized, Oh my word, the spirit, if the soul just gets out of

241
00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:05.680
the way, the soul doesn't have to know how to heal.

242
00:16:05.680 --> 00:16:09.280
It hasn't, doesn't have to know all the inner workings of the demonic realm and

243
00:16:09.280 --> 00:16:14.280
all, it doesn't have to even know what the trauma is, let alone how to heal it.

244
00:16:14.760 --> 00:16:16.760
It just needs to get out of the way.

245
00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:20.760
And then the spirit can come in and take care of it.

246
00:16:20.760 --> 00:16:25.840
And while the spirit is healing, if the soul is looking on learning, learning

247
00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:30.120
while it's happening, not learning in order to execute, but just learning.

248
00:16:30.400 --> 00:16:31.680
And so it's like, Oh, okay.

249
00:16:31.680 --> 00:16:33.160
So apparently that's how you do it.

250
00:16:33.280 --> 00:16:35.680
Cause he's watching it actually being healed.

251
00:16:35.880 --> 00:16:37.040
So it was fascinating.

252
00:16:37.040 --> 00:16:39.360
So I thought, okay, so how do I apply this?

253
00:16:39.760 --> 00:16:43.560
And so I began to talk to my soul and tell my soul, okay, how do I, in other

254
00:16:43.560 --> 00:16:48.920
words, I thought, how do I get my soul to stop messing with it, to realize that

255
00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:49.680
it's okay.

256
00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:52.600
Why does my soul keep wanting to mess with it?

257
00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:54.960
Why does my soul keep wanting to put its finger in the pie?

258
00:16:55.800 --> 00:16:58.360
And I realized one of the things is it's afraid.

259
00:16:59.200 --> 00:16:59.960
It's afraid.

260
00:17:00.000 --> 00:17:03.800
It does not feel safe with the spirit, which is why it's blocked it off.

261
00:17:04.119 --> 00:17:05.640
It does not feel safe with the Lord.

262
00:17:05.640 --> 00:17:07.079
It doesn't feel safe with the spirit.

263
00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:08.800
It is in a state of unbelief.

264
00:17:09.359 --> 00:17:15.160
So I realized, okay, I needed to tell my soul, Hey, look, you need to let go.

265
00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:17.440
You were asking for a Lord.

266
00:17:17.480 --> 00:17:19.640
I am actually over you.

267
00:17:19.640 --> 00:17:24.119
So I am giving you a command because you were creation.

268
00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:28.600
I am, even though it's me, I'm giving it, giving creation to command and I'm

269
00:17:28.600 --> 00:17:32.040
telling it, you need, uh, you're okay.

270
00:17:32.240 --> 00:17:33.080
You're safe.

271
00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:36.880
You just need to let go of the lies that you're hanging on to.

272
00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:40.440
And if you let go of the lies that you're hanging on to, you will naturally

273
00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:44.240
heal because you, it is of your nature to be whole.

274
00:17:44.880 --> 00:17:45.760
So let go.

275
00:17:45.960 --> 00:17:51.360
So then my soul calmed down and then, and then when my, as soon as my soul comes,

276
00:17:51.360 --> 00:17:56.160
it calms down, I, you can talk to your spirit and ask it to come in, but that's

277
00:17:56.160 --> 00:18:02.600
more for, for the souls, um, help of consciously thinking of consciously

278
00:18:02.600 --> 00:18:07.720
understanding, okay, I am making a conscious decision to invite this soul to

279
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:08.280
come in.

280
00:18:08.440 --> 00:18:12.240
I am telling her not the soul, the spirit to come in and to do its work for the

281
00:18:12.240 --> 00:18:16.440
spirit, to bring, um, the spirit of wisdom, for the spirit to operate with the

282
00:18:16.440 --> 00:18:22.920
Lord and in its knowledge, heal the wound and the trauma that it knows that it, it

283
00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:25.120
knows exists that the soul doesn't know.

284
00:18:26.160 --> 00:18:31.600
And so I, sometimes you can talk to the spirit as well, but, uh, but, uh, you

285
00:18:31.600 --> 00:18:36.880
don't, you don't have to, you can just tell your soul to release what it's doing

286
00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:38.400
to let go of the lie.

287
00:18:38.600 --> 00:18:40.800
And then naturally your spirit will move in.

288
00:18:41.200 --> 00:18:45.560
We don't have to actually give our spirits instruction because our spirit is our

289
00:18:45.560 --> 00:18:46.720
natural state.

290
00:18:46.920 --> 00:18:55.760
If we let go of us acting in our unnatural state, which is where our soul is, um, is,

291
00:18:55.760 --> 00:18:57.240
uh, believing lies.

292
00:18:57.280 --> 00:18:59.920
It's not believing the truth of the Lord.

293
00:19:00.120 --> 00:19:06.320
If we stop acting unlike our nature, by default, we'll act like our nature.

294
00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:07.720
We don't have to try.

295
00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:12.120
So it's not like we stop acting like our nature and then we're ending up in no

296
00:19:12.120 --> 00:19:12.960
man's land.

297
00:19:13.240 --> 00:19:16.080
And now we have to learn how to act like our nature.

298
00:19:16.280 --> 00:19:17.560
No, that's default.

299
00:19:18.320 --> 00:19:23.160
So as long as we stop doing the corrupted version, we can just rest and we will

300
00:19:23.160 --> 00:19:26.560
naturally be the, um, will naturally be who we are.

301
00:19:27.080 --> 00:19:29.200
And, uh, therefore we will naturally heal.

302
00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:30.680
The spirit will naturally come in.

303
00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:32.960
We don't even have to instruct our spirit to do it.

304
00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:34.680
It always does it.

305
00:19:34.760 --> 00:19:39.120
We're just constantly resisting it, but it's always coming down.

306
00:19:39.400 --> 00:19:42.680
We're just in a constant state of resistance against it.

307
00:19:43.160 --> 00:19:45.160
So now I was just curious.

308
00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:49.120
I love that the Lord gave you that vision because I mean, I haven't had a vision

309
00:19:49.120 --> 00:19:53.040
like that, but I think we talked about earlier a lot.

310
00:19:53.040 --> 00:19:58.640
I mean, that's, I don't know, for the past couple of years, like I say, I honor you

311
00:19:58.640 --> 00:19:59.040
soul.

312
00:19:59.040 --> 00:19:59.840
Like, I thank you.

313
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.320
so much for, you serve me so well, but, and I'll ask my soul

314
00:20:04.320 --> 00:20:08.160
to step aside and so that my spirit can rise up and do what

315
00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:12.080
it's, you know, made to do. So, so I love that you've got this

316
00:20:12.080 --> 00:20:15.600
actual visual because I was just kind of, you know, in faith,

317
00:20:15.600 --> 00:20:19.040
just walking through a process of asking, you know, just when

318
00:20:19.040 --> 00:20:22.560
I could feel like, whatever, anxiety, you know, whatever kind

319
00:20:22.560 --> 00:20:24.800
of rises up or that you know, that that's not what you're

320
00:20:24.800 --> 00:20:29.680
supposed to operate in. So I'll, you know, ask my soul to, I

321
00:20:29.680 --> 00:20:34.080
mean, I do it in a way that's honoring, you know, but, but I

322
00:20:34.080 --> 00:20:37.280
thank you for your service, but can you step aside so that, you

323
00:20:37.280 --> 00:20:40.960
know, whatever. So, because there is, you know, until you

324
00:20:40.960 --> 00:20:45.040
what you're teaching, you know, everybody until we can, you

325
00:20:45.040 --> 00:20:48.960
know, live in that place constantly, which is, you know,

326
00:20:49.600 --> 00:20:54.320
I don't know if anyone ever does that, you know. I mean,

327
00:20:54.320 --> 00:20:58.720
that's the goal is to not have your soul continually rise up,

328
00:20:58.720 --> 00:21:02.320
but to grow and take more ground and, and walking. But

329
00:21:02.320 --> 00:21:04.800
anyway, I love that, that picture. So I was just curious

330
00:21:04.800 --> 00:21:07.600
what, what you saw. So that's awesome.

331
00:21:08.320 --> 00:21:10.800
Yeah. And that's perfect. And I like the fact that you talk

332
00:21:10.800 --> 00:21:15.440
about the importance of honoring the soul, because that's always

333
00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:18.800
the way in which we want to talk to it. Always want to, always

334
00:21:18.800 --> 00:21:22.720
want to honor and just all of creation, honor it. It's, it's

335
00:21:23.520 --> 00:21:28.640
people and things do not want, and in creation are in a state

336
00:21:28.640 --> 00:21:33.040
of turmoil and anxiety and chaos because they haven't been

337
00:21:33.040 --> 00:21:37.440
identified. They're looking for a Lord. They want a Lord. They

338
00:21:37.440 --> 00:21:41.920
want a master, so to speak, you know, they want a king and it's

339
00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:46.640
the lack of a king standing in its place that causes all of

340
00:21:46.640 --> 00:21:49.520
the chaos. So when Jesus stood in front of the wind and the

341
00:21:49.520 --> 00:21:52.560
waves, and he said, you know, peace be still, they calmed

342
00:21:52.560 --> 00:21:56.640
down because all that they heard a king, they heard a son

343
00:21:56.640 --> 00:22:01.760
of God. And if I now, now that whenever a king of a son of God

344
00:22:01.760 --> 00:22:05.520
presents himself, all of creation response, because they

345
00:22:05.520 --> 00:22:10.640
now know who they are simply because the son of God knows who

346
00:22:10.640 --> 00:22:14.240
he is. Once the son of God knows who he is, you know, an, a son

347
00:22:14.240 --> 00:22:17.920
of God, you know, one of us, then the rest of creation will

348
00:22:17.920 --> 00:22:21.200
respond accordingly because they get their identification

349
00:22:21.920 --> 00:22:26.000
based on their relationship to us. And if we don't know who we

350
00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:28.640
are and we're not staying in our place, they don't have a

351
00:22:28.640 --> 00:22:32.800
position and they don't know what's expected of them. I mean,

352
00:22:32.800 --> 00:22:35.600
you can carry this into everything. You can carry this

353
00:22:35.600 --> 00:22:37.600
into, and this is something that we haven't talked about

354
00:22:37.600 --> 00:22:43.120
before. The importance of things like, like cleaning, cleaning

355
00:22:43.120 --> 00:22:48.400
the house, you know, doing dishes. I don't know, just

356
00:22:48.400 --> 00:22:51.680
various things, various things. Picking things up at retail

357
00:22:51.680 --> 00:22:54.640
stores and buying them or returning them or whatever.

358
00:22:56.000 --> 00:22:59.920
Sending things off to goodwill or to charity or whatever. All

359
00:22:59.920 --> 00:23:04.480
of these things are telling objects and the creation around

360
00:23:04.480 --> 00:23:08.560
us, this as a son of God, this is what I expect of you. I'm

361
00:23:08.560 --> 00:23:11.520
telling you, this is how, you know, you're, you're serving me,

362
00:23:11.600 --> 00:23:15.040
you're serving, you're serving other objects, you're serving,

363
00:23:15.040 --> 00:23:17.840
you know, the environment or whatever in a spiritual sense.

364
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:21.360
And so I, as a son of God, am telling you your place. I'm

365
00:23:21.360 --> 00:23:24.800
telling you what it is that I want of you right now. I like

366
00:23:24.800 --> 00:23:27.840
cleaning up the house, you know, it's, it's telling dirt and

367
00:23:27.840 --> 00:23:31.840
dust and, and, you know, everything else. This is what I

368
00:23:31.840 --> 00:23:35.600
want you to do. This is, this is, it's, it's, it's, I'm

369
00:23:35.600 --> 00:23:38.960
cleaning a house and it is serving it and it is providing

370
00:23:38.960 --> 00:23:42.000
what the house needs. It's providing Lordship and kingship

371
00:23:42.000 --> 00:23:45.920
over it so that it in turn can serve us. The problem is when,

372
00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:49.120
from, if we're not standing in our, in our understanding that

373
00:23:49.120 --> 00:23:52.880
we are sons of God, and then we're cleaning or the fact that

374
00:23:52.880 --> 00:23:55.600
we're not standing in our, in our position of sons of God, and

375
00:23:55.600 --> 00:23:58.880
we're buying things or exchanging things or cleaning,

376
00:23:58.880 --> 00:24:01.920
cleaning out our closets and sending stuff to goodwill. If

377
00:24:01.920 --> 00:24:06.480
we're not doing it from the correct position, then we are,

378
00:24:07.200 --> 00:24:11.680
then we are actually, we're actually serving it. That's why

379
00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:16.240
we feel drained. That's why we feel that it's work is because,

380
00:24:16.880 --> 00:24:19.360
which is where we get that, that expression, the more

381
00:24:19.360 --> 00:24:23.280
possessions you own, the more your possessions own you. It's

382
00:24:23.280 --> 00:24:29.520
from an attitude of, I am using, I'm using things, using

383
00:24:29.520 --> 00:24:34.240
things, not from a sense of Lordship, using them as, as a,

384
00:24:34.240 --> 00:24:38.400
like abusing them. And that's not what a king would do. And

385
00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:41.600
sorry, I'm trying to say this as succinctly as possible,

386
00:24:41.600 --> 00:24:44.080
because I realized that now that some of the wording that

387
00:24:44.080 --> 00:24:49.280
I'm using might, might sound a little confusing. But anyway,

388
00:24:49.280 --> 00:24:53.040
so basically the point is that the attitude, the attitude

389
00:24:53.040 --> 00:24:57.520
behind it will change whether we are, whether we are

390
00:24:57.520 --> 00:24:59.920
identifying to creation what we want it to do.

391
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:09.520
And we're not drained when we clean, when we take care of our children, when we run errands, or if we're drained because we're actually

392
00:25:10.200 --> 00:25:19.720
We're actually feeling run by those things. We're feeling out of control and we're not standing in our lordship over creation, over our lives, etc.

393
00:25:20.120 --> 00:25:26.200
So anyway, don't know how we got off on that. But, oh, because you were talking about honoring. So I loved the fact that you're talking about honoring

394
00:25:26.920 --> 00:25:36.280
Okay, really interesting side note to bring in. I don't know if y'all have heard of Marie Kondo, you know, the KonMari method, the life changing magic of tidying up.

395
00:25:36.880 --> 00:25:46.600
Found that absolutely fascinating. She is, for those of you who don't know, she is a little Japanese lady who has it on her heart to organize the whole world.

396
00:25:47.000 --> 00:26:01.720
And basically declutter it, but her idea is not minimalism. Her idea is based off of what sparks joy in us. In other words, what things do we have in our lives around us that actually prompt

397
00:26:02.560 --> 00:26:08.480
Or that actually reflect our spirits. Now she doesn't know that, but you know it's reflecting of our spirits.

398
00:26:08.760 --> 00:26:17.360
What sparks joy. What things are we supposed to based off of our, our spirits unique connection with the Lord, which is called our identity.

399
00:26:17.520 --> 00:26:24.760
That's our identity is actually the point at which our spirit uniquely connects with God's spirit, which is why everybody's identity is different.

400
00:26:25.120 --> 00:26:32.400
And, and it can't be defined the expression of our identity can be defined, but not our identity itself. Anyway,

401
00:26:32.800 --> 00:26:39.760
And so it's how our spirits are uniquely supposed to be a king and a Lord in in

402
00:26:40.360 --> 00:26:52.640
In the way that God intended us to, again, as unique individuals. What sparks joy. So we know what we're supposed to bring into our lives, what things that we're supposed to govern over and then what things you know can be given to somebody else to govern over

403
00:26:53.400 --> 00:26:59.880
Um, and one of the things that she talks about is when she talks about decluttering things she's talking about getting rid of them.

404
00:27:00.800 --> 00:27:15.760
She, she is, of course, a bit of a very traditional Japanese religious mindset. She believes in animism, which is, you know, the belief that objects are living and that and

405
00:27:15.840 --> 00:27:24.240
And and I do you know and what is it called Africa in Africa. That's a really big religious mindset in Africa as well.

406
00:27:24.720 --> 00:27:31.280
The fact that things are are are beings with like almost like everything has a soul.

407
00:27:31.840 --> 00:27:38.800
Like, even if it's a like if it's a bottle of vitamins. It has a soul. If it's a purse. It has a soul that kind of an idea.

408
00:27:38.800 --> 00:27:51.840
And, and while I don't agree with that. I do believe that it is all creation that responds to that responds to a son of God, and therefore it does need to be honored. It is looking for

409
00:27:52.840 --> 00:28:07.200
And it is looking for a son of God to identify it and its function and how it can be a service. And that's what we're called to do in the same way that Adam was required was was given the animals by God to name them.

410
00:28:07.200 --> 00:28:18.240
We name various aspects of creation constantly throughout our lives. We're constantly identifying things to itself of, hey, look, this is who you are. This is how you're supposed to serve me.

411
00:28:19.760 --> 00:28:26.880
And anyway, so she talks about when you're decluttering. It's important to grab ahold of the thing. If you decide to get rid of it.

412
00:28:27.360 --> 00:28:33.600
And to tell it. Thank you for your service. You know, you've done such a good job. And now I send you off somewhere else.

413
00:28:33.600 --> 00:28:43.120
And while I don't agree with all of that, there's an interesting aspect. Remember, Satan always has a counter to God's truth.

414
00:28:43.800 --> 00:28:55.400
So there is a way in which we should be honoring things, but not honoring them in the way it as as animus honor things, but really an honor of

415
00:28:55.400 --> 00:29:06.200
We're the king. We're kings and we don't need to abuse our subjects. They simply wanted to serve us. It's like a dog. A dog just wants to know how on earth to make you happy.

416
00:29:07.080 --> 00:29:22.600
Dogs sole purpose in life is focus is how can I make you happy. Will you be happy with me kind of a thing. Are we going to go for a walk. Can we go on a walk, you know, get so excited. Nothing is more excited to see you then than a dog.

417
00:29:22.720 --> 00:29:31.720
And except maybe a three year old. Anyway, it's I found her perspective, very fascinating. Again, it's Satan, the state as a panic.

418
00:29:32.360 --> 00:29:42.040
Sounds really strong, but a incorrect counter to God's truth of the fact that we should be honoring things we shouldn't be abusing them.

419
00:29:42.840 --> 00:29:51.080
And so it's kind of a counter to God's truth of the fact that we should be honoring things we shouldn't be abusing them.

420
00:29:52.000 --> 00:29:56.360
Like for instance, she talks about the fact to give you an idea about how how

421
00:29:56.360 --> 00:30:00.000
first home when she comes home from work. She recommends

422
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:05.920
Literally taking everything out of the purse, because the purse has been working hard all day.

423
00:30:06.520 --> 00:30:15.600
And you put everything in in a proper place like your keys and your wallet and whatever all of that has a proper place in like a drawer or something. And then you and then you

424
00:30:16.200 --> 00:30:26.960
And then you take you take your purse and you just kind of, I don't know. I think she's basically like petted a rabbit or talk to and talk to and tell it. Thank you so much. You've worked so hard today. I want you to rest.

425
00:30:27.320 --> 00:30:33.560
I don't want you to hold these things all the time. And then to have a special place for your purse. I think that's a little too far.

426
00:30:34.560 --> 00:30:43.160
My point is that she goes that far into thinking, oh, this is how we need to honor something. Well, I disagree with that.

427
00:30:43.400 --> 00:30:53.320
The, the, all I liked and under that is the first place in which God began to introduce me to the idea of giving something honor

428
00:30:53.760 --> 00:31:03.920
Talking kindly to things and treating things well instead of just abusively walk around just like throwing things we've all known that that wasn't right.

429
00:31:04.160 --> 00:31:13.960
But we haven't quite known why, other than the fact that, oh, well, that's just, that's just lazier that's cluttering, you know, there's, there's a there's a deeper reason than that. It's not a kingly behavior.

430
00:31:14.400 --> 00:31:20.160
And it's important not to get too far because again they serve us. We don't serve them, but it's important.

431
00:31:20.320 --> 00:31:30.240
In order for them to be able to be equipped and stand in their position and their function to serve us. They have to be they have to be identified and have to be honored as well. That's our

432
00:31:30.520 --> 00:31:38.600
That's our mandate as kings that are actually reflecting the character of our father. So that was very long and

433
00:31:39.840 --> 00:31:48.520
Deep explanation of the whole honor thing, but I'm glad that you mentioned that because you're absolutely right. It's important for us to honor honor our soul when we talk to it.

434
00:31:48.880 --> 00:31:56.520
And honor other people when we talk to them, people naturally when they're healed. Everybody wants to do the right thing. People don't want to

435
00:31:57.960 --> 00:32:00.320
Do evil if they're actually healed.

436
00:32:02.480 --> 00:32:05.360
Anyway, oh, hey, you're not in the car anymore.

437
00:32:08.640 --> 00:32:10.320
There we go. I'm not needed anymore.

438
00:32:10.760 --> 00:32:16.680
So I feel like I'm taking things are like a completely different direction, but I have a question about

439
00:32:17.800 --> 00:32:18.920
How do you know

440
00:32:20.120 --> 00:32:26.160
If like something that you're planning to do or even thinking about doing. How do you know

441
00:32:27.320 --> 00:32:33.520
If the anxiety that you're feeling is because you shouldn't do that thing or because you're just not in the right place.

442
00:32:33.840 --> 00:32:34.360
Yeah, I mean,

443
00:32:35.000 --> 00:32:36.640
Good question. Oh, yeah. Okay.

444
00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:38.280
So it's

445
00:32:39.800 --> 00:32:49.080
Okay, trying to think about how to go at this. So when I'm okay so let me tell you a story real quick about how the show me

446
00:32:51.280 --> 00:32:51.840
Huh.

447
00:32:52.600 --> 00:32:56.880
I promise I'm listening. I'm just like can listen better when I'm working so

448
00:32:56.960 --> 00:33:03.280
Yeah, that's great. Um, so, um, I was at the store.

449
00:33:03.920 --> 00:33:14.720
One time, and I was trying to make a decision between a couple of different things. One was less expensive one was more expensive and I was trying to determine, okay, which is the right decision to make.

450
00:33:15.520 --> 00:33:24.360
And again, not according. I was trying to be careful. Okay, I can't do this according to the knowledge of the tree, the tree, the knowledge of an evil. I need to do it according to the spirit. What

451
00:33:24.360 --> 00:33:37.680
In the spirit. What decision should I be making here. And I thought, okay, so let's walk myself through this. So I thought, okay, this one over here, the cheaper one that one felt comfortable and familiar

452
00:33:38.320 --> 00:33:46.760
The more expensive one did not feel comfortable and it felt very unfamiliar. It's very unfamiliar territory to spend money like that.

453
00:33:46.760 --> 00:33:59.680
So it wasn't horribly expensive. It was, it just felt like, oh, well, surely I could get away with the cheaper option, you know, surely that would function, according to the capacity that I was that I was needing from it and

454
00:34:00.480 --> 00:34:12.760
So, but I thought, okay, so that's comfort and or yeah comfortability and and being uncomfortable and then familiar and unfamiliar. But then I thought, okay, but what is my spirit say

455
00:34:12.760 --> 00:34:23.760
I thought, okay, my, where is my peace and where is my fear in the end. And so I was looking for peace. Where do I feel peace and I noticed that in the end.

456
00:34:24.800 --> 00:34:36.320
That the reason why I looked at the inexpensive one and I felt fear. That was the reason why I wanted to take that that the cheaper option is because I thought, that's the one I'm supposed to.

457
00:34:36.320 --> 00:34:56.320
And so I thought about, I thought, oh my word, there's fear in there. But the only way that I recognized it because fear so familiar to me. Again, that's comfortable and familiar fear was so familiar. I had to find peace before I recognize that as fear. So I looked at the other one and figured out, okay, well, how do I feel about this. Do I feel peace.

458
00:34:57.320 --> 00:35:04.320
And so I thought, okay, so that's the reason why I wanted to take that that the cheaper option is because I thought, that's the one I'm supposed to.

459
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:03.740
And all of a sudden I thought, oh my word, that's where I feel my peace.

460
00:35:03.740 --> 00:35:11.900
My peace was in, okay, this is going to sound a little confusing, but my peace was where

461
00:35:11.900 --> 00:35:12.900
my fear was.

462
00:35:12.900 --> 00:35:16.500
So even though I was talking about the fact that this was where my fear was, I realized

463
00:35:16.500 --> 00:35:24.140
that the reason why this was uncomfortable and it was unfamiliar is because this is,

464
00:35:24.140 --> 00:35:25.820
and I felt fear here.

465
00:35:25.820 --> 00:35:28.860
I was like, oh my word, that's too much money.

466
00:35:28.860 --> 00:35:31.940
I really shouldn't, I don't know that I should do that.

467
00:35:31.940 --> 00:35:35.180
So that when I was first looking at the what's comfortable and uncomfortable and familiar

468
00:35:35.180 --> 00:35:41.100
and unfamiliar, that is when I first recognized this one feels uncomfortable because I'm afraid.

469
00:35:41.100 --> 00:35:45.220
But when I looked into, but I realized that all that's in my soul, then I went into a

470
00:35:45.220 --> 00:35:52.300
deeper measure and I looked, then I looked for a spiritual fear versus, and it's not

471
00:35:52.300 --> 00:35:56.180
a spiritual fear because in the spirit there is no fear, but my point is that I went to

472
00:35:56.180 --> 00:36:00.180
a deeper level and decided, okay, well, where is my peace?

473
00:36:00.180 --> 00:36:02.540
And I realized, okay, so I'm thinking about this one.

474
00:36:02.540 --> 00:36:03.540
How do I feel?

475
00:36:03.540 --> 00:36:09.500
Then I looked at the, at the more expensive option and all of a sudden my inside came

476
00:36:09.500 --> 00:36:10.500
to life.

477
00:36:10.500 --> 00:36:16.660
But this one was where I'd also felt the most fear because it was, it was uncomfortable.

478
00:36:16.660 --> 00:36:17.660
It was unfamiliar.

479
00:36:17.660 --> 00:36:21.660
I was worried that it's probably an unwise choice.

480
00:36:21.660 --> 00:36:25.660
It's probably a, it's probably irresponsible.

481
00:36:25.660 --> 00:36:27.060
That was the big thing for me.

482
00:36:27.060 --> 00:36:28.940
This one was irresponsible.

483
00:36:28.940 --> 00:36:32.900
Why spend this money if this one will work?

484
00:36:32.900 --> 00:36:34.900
Therefore this one's irresponsible.

485
00:36:34.900 --> 00:36:39.780
This one, if I were to buy this one, it would define that I'm bad.

486
00:36:39.780 --> 00:36:42.180
It would define that I make unwise decisions.

487
00:36:42.180 --> 00:36:47.380
It would define, it would, it would determine that I, I waste money.

488
00:36:47.380 --> 00:36:53.220
All of these things I had added up in my head about how to make decisions according to,

489
00:36:53.220 --> 00:36:57.460
from a very soulish perspective of logic, which is according to the two trees of knowledge

490
00:36:57.460 --> 00:37:00.180
of good and evil versus the tree of life.

491
00:37:00.180 --> 00:37:05.780
So according to knowledge of the tree of good and evil, that was the comfortable, familiar,

492
00:37:05.780 --> 00:37:06.780
uncomfortable, unfamiliar.

493
00:37:06.780 --> 00:37:09.040
I was very afraid.

494
00:37:09.040 --> 00:37:10.700
That was how I was determining my choice.

495
00:37:10.700 --> 00:37:11.700
I was very afraid.

496
00:37:11.700 --> 00:37:16.300
So I thought, okay, now that I know, according to my soul and according to the tree of knowledge

497
00:37:16.300 --> 00:37:20.300
of evil, good and evil, which one I'm going to choose now, according to the tree of life,

498
00:37:20.300 --> 00:37:21.620
there's my peace.

499
00:37:21.620 --> 00:37:23.380
Because in God, there's nothing but peace.

500
00:37:23.380 --> 00:37:28.060
And that's when, so I had to go to a deeper layer and that's when I found my peace here.

501
00:37:28.060 --> 00:37:31.340
And my peace ended up being in the place of my greatest fear.

502
00:37:31.340 --> 00:37:34.140
Did that answer your question or?

503
00:37:34.140 --> 00:37:38.140
Yes, that answers my question.

504
00:37:38.140 --> 00:37:39.140
Yeah.

505
00:37:39.140 --> 00:37:46.380
I think sometimes I, yeah, I think I really struggle sometimes, especially when, when

506
00:37:46.380 --> 00:37:57.180
a decision that I do make then kind of ends up seeming like the wrong one.

507
00:37:57.180 --> 00:38:02.300
I think that's why I often feel like, yeah, after I make a decision and then like things

508
00:38:02.300 --> 00:38:06.280
don't go well, or, you know, even maybe they're not necessarily going bad.

509
00:38:06.280 --> 00:38:09.420
They're just not going like really smoothly.

510
00:38:09.420 --> 00:38:12.780
My temptation then is to be like, oh, well I made the wrong choice and like now God's

511
00:38:12.780 --> 00:38:16.740
mad at me and he's just letting all of these bad things happen, like to teach me a lesson

512
00:38:16.740 --> 00:38:19.340
for next time, you know?

513
00:38:19.340 --> 00:38:23.940
And I think I've, I've really faced that a lot in my business, um, just because of how

514
00:38:23.940 --> 00:38:26.460
much stress I experienced.

515
00:38:26.460 --> 00:38:29.060
And I think that's why I get so frustrated.

516
00:38:29.060 --> 00:38:33.060
Like when people in direct sales are all, I get mad at people that are happy in direct

517
00:38:33.060 --> 00:38:40.220
sales because I want to be them, but I'm not like, I'm just not, I have moments of happiness,

518
00:38:40.220 --> 00:38:42.980
but then there's times when I'm just like, I'm so stressed out.

519
00:38:42.980 --> 00:38:46.060
And then I'm wondering, okay, am I stressed out because I should never have started this

520
00:38:46.060 --> 00:38:47.620
in the first place?

521
00:38:47.620 --> 00:38:51.180
Or am I stressed out because I'm just not working from the right place?

522
00:38:51.180 --> 00:38:52.180
Yeah.

523
00:38:52.180 --> 00:38:57.260
That's one of the things that we talk about is, is understanding when we're looking at

524
00:38:57.260 --> 00:39:02.340
the wind and the waves, whether it be the wind and the waves of our emotion or the wind

525
00:39:02.340 --> 00:39:05.540
and the waves of the environment around us.

526
00:39:05.540 --> 00:39:09.460
And we're, because according to the soul, according to the tree of the knowledge of

527
00:39:09.460 --> 00:39:14.500
good and evil, which I'll be redoing a teaching on, you know, after, after we get off is,

528
00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:20.780
um, uh, is, is we're looking at our environment and, and we've, we've come to, we've come,

529
00:39:20.780 --> 00:39:26.780
the only way to know whether something is good or evil is if we have a standard of measure.

530
00:39:26.780 --> 00:39:32.420
And one of the standards of measure that we have been taught to use is, okay, look what's

531
00:39:32.420 --> 00:39:34.100
going on around you.

532
00:39:34.100 --> 00:39:35.260
Are things going smoothly?

533
00:39:35.260 --> 00:39:36.260
No.

534
00:39:36.260 --> 00:39:38.060
Well, therefore it must be evil.

535
00:39:38.060 --> 00:39:41.900
Well, that has nothing whatsoever to do with whether or not it's good or evil, but that's,

536
00:39:41.900 --> 00:39:46.060
that's the standard that we've chosen because the tree of the knowledge of good and evil

537
00:39:46.060 --> 00:39:53.180
is extremely limited in its ability to actually tell us what is or isn't of the character

538
00:39:53.180 --> 00:39:54.620
of God.

539
00:39:54.620 --> 00:39:59.500
So therefore we're looking at our emotions, we're looking at the environment, you know,

540
00:39:59.500 --> 00:39:59.940
is our business.

541
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:04.680
going smoothly or, um, you know, am I making money? Am I not making money?

542
00:40:04.880 --> 00:40:06.720
We can use that as a standard too.

543
00:40:06.720 --> 00:40:10.840
And that has absolutely nothing to whatsoever to do with whether or not, um,

544
00:40:10.880 --> 00:40:13.200
we're going in the right direction. I am personally,

545
00:40:13.480 --> 00:40:17.600
I can attest from personal experience. Um, and,

546
00:40:17.960 --> 00:40:21.520
and so, I mean, it's all kinds of things. It's also our emotions. Oh,

547
00:40:21.520 --> 00:40:24.800
I'm feeling like this. I'm not feeling like this. It's, it's,

548
00:40:24.800 --> 00:40:28.800
it's deep as, um, even, am I hearing God? Am I not hearing God?

549
00:40:29.560 --> 00:40:34.280
That can also be the wind and the waves because it's our environment,

550
00:40:34.320 --> 00:40:38.280
even if it's an internal environment by which we are determining whether

551
00:40:38.280 --> 00:40:41.800
something's right or wrong. And God says that nothing should determine whether,

552
00:40:42.080 --> 00:40:46.200
whether it's truth or error, except the word of God,

553
00:40:46.520 --> 00:40:48.200
because it says that, that, that, um,

554
00:40:48.200 --> 00:40:52.480
the word of God is what rightly divides, um, uh,

555
00:40:52.520 --> 00:40:56.040
truth from error. So nothing else is supposed to.

556
00:40:56.040 --> 00:40:59.960
So whenever we're relying on anything else, how we feel about it,

557
00:41:00.000 --> 00:41:04.000
whether or not God's been talking to us lately and repeating what he told us a

558
00:41:04.000 --> 00:41:08.440
few days ago or a week ago or a year ago, or, um, uh,

559
00:41:08.480 --> 00:41:11.800
whether our business is going smoothly, whether we're feeling, I don't know,

560
00:41:11.800 --> 00:41:15.080
whatever that's the wind and the waves. And it's, it's an,

561
00:41:15.160 --> 00:41:20.080
it's an environment, um, that we're at and a standard of measure that we're

562
00:41:20.080 --> 00:41:25.040
incorrectly using. So, so yeah.

563
00:41:26.040 --> 00:41:26.880
Okay.

564
00:41:35.600 --> 00:41:38.480
So poor Steph, it looks like she has that.

565
00:41:38.480 --> 00:41:42.520
Her internet just has not been working to allow her to get back on.

566
00:41:47.600 --> 00:41:52.600
Oh, did anyone have any other thoughts or feedback or,

567
00:41:53.360 --> 00:41:55.640
um, what's been going, I don't know,

568
00:41:55.680 --> 00:42:00.600
what the Lord has been talking to you about this week or, um, I don't know,

569
00:42:00.600 --> 00:42:05.600
just, just anything, anything that maybe, um, I know haven't addressed.

570
00:42:10.320 --> 00:42:12.720
So I, um,

571
00:42:14.240 --> 00:42:19.240
kind of usually how I used to do my business was I would kind of map out kind

572
00:42:20.240 --> 00:42:25.240
of my 90 day plan or my goals or whatever.

573
00:42:25.760 --> 00:42:29.560
Um, and I still have my goal in mind, but I'm,

574
00:42:30.000 --> 00:42:33.160
I've really been struggling to, I haven't come,

575
00:42:33.200 --> 00:42:37.360
I don't want to say struggling cause I've not wanted to struggle. Um,

576
00:42:37.920 --> 00:42:42.520
I just am at by myself right now, not really having a plan.

577
00:42:43.320 --> 00:42:46.760
Um, don't know what I want to do to operate,

578
00:42:46.880 --> 00:42:50.280
like what it will look like for me operating from place of rest.

579
00:42:50.760 --> 00:42:55.760
And so like, is that okay?

580
00:42:55.960 --> 00:42:56.800
Like, is that,

581
00:42:57.360 --> 00:43:02.360
is that kind of normal part of the transition kind of right now I feel a little

582
00:43:02.880 --> 00:43:07.640
bit lost and I'm not, I'm not too worried about that. It was me. I,

583
00:43:07.760 --> 00:43:10.600
it's hard for me to be like, that's okay to not be worried about it.

584
00:43:10.840 --> 00:43:12.640
Like it feels lazy that I'm not worried about it,

585
00:43:13.040 --> 00:43:16.480
but I just kind of take it one day at a time. And as I get an idea,

586
00:43:16.480 --> 00:43:17.320
I implement it.

587
00:43:17.360 --> 00:43:22.360
But is that all a like normal to be expected on this path?

588
00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:27.280
Yes. You don't know. That's why people don't like,

589
00:43:28.560 --> 00:43:31.840
that's why I don't like operating by, uh, by rest.

590
00:43:31.840 --> 00:43:36.120
And that's why he chose the fruit because she could control the result.

591
00:43:36.360 --> 00:43:40.040
She could control. This is what I'm going to do. It makes sense to my soul.

592
00:43:40.040 --> 00:43:43.960
It's an anchor for my soul to kind of latch onto. So when you're,

593
00:43:44.000 --> 00:43:47.760
when you're operating business and God hasn't given you a very clear, you know,

594
00:43:48.240 --> 00:43:50.040
you know, I want you to do this and I want you to do this.

595
00:43:50.040 --> 00:43:54.000
And then once you did, if he doesn't do that, which usually he doesn't,

596
00:43:54.400 --> 00:43:56.840
then he just wants you to take the journey with him.

597
00:43:56.880 --> 00:44:00.520
And one of the things that he wants in taking the journey with him is you

598
00:44:00.520 --> 00:44:04.880
bringing yourself to the table. Okay. Well, you know, what are some ideas?

599
00:44:04.880 --> 00:44:08.320
And, and, and, uh, what would I maybe, you know,

600
00:44:08.320 --> 00:44:10.960
just kind of brainstorm and dream. In other words,

601
00:44:11.400 --> 00:44:15.040
Oh, I like my business to look like, okay, what do I feel like doing right now?

602
00:44:15.040 --> 00:44:19.400
Would I like to, uh, do I like creating Facebook posts?

603
00:44:19.440 --> 00:44:22.480
Do I like creating Facebook videos? Well, even if I do,

604
00:44:22.480 --> 00:44:24.960
what do I like doing them about, um,

605
00:44:25.000 --> 00:44:29.160
what comes naturally to you as far as your natural spirit,

606
00:44:29.160 --> 00:44:34.080
what your spirit is naturally drawn to, um, not, uh,

607
00:44:34.120 --> 00:44:38.160
what comes natural is in like what you do and don't have experience then,

608
00:44:38.440 --> 00:44:41.040
because obviously when you're moving into new areas, well,

609
00:44:41.040 --> 00:44:45.920
then you're not going to have experience in them. So, I mean that, so it's,

610
00:44:45.920 --> 00:44:50.920
it's just what comes natural is in what's in your heart that you'd like to

611
00:44:50.960 --> 00:44:55.320
try, what are you naturally drawn to, and then try those things.

612
00:44:55.520 --> 00:44:59.040
And they're not all going to work out the way you thought or the way you wanted.

613
00:44:59.080 --> 00:44:59.920
But as part of

614
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:08.380
A journey. It's going to interweave into the fabric and it's going to be part of what makes what you end up doing what it ends up looking like

615
00:45:08.860 --> 00:45:17.540
Because it was influenced in your path to get there was influenced by you having taken this pit stop at trying this one thing.

616
00:45:18.420 --> 00:45:26.580
Or in the same weather that did or didn't work. I remember, for instance, you know, Edison tried 1000 things before he found the light bulb on it, you know, and I

617
00:45:26.880 --> 00:45:38.240
Don't worry, you're not gonna have to try 1000. My point is, I don't want to say that sounds discouraging. My point is it's it's just part is part of the journey. So yeah, you feel you you're listening to the Lord as you go along.

618
00:45:38.760 --> 00:45:48.840
And you are, you're just kind of seeing. Remember what we were talking about with this spirit where the spirit spirit never is stagnant. So you're in God's spirit.

619
00:45:49.100 --> 00:45:57.180
You're in him and he's in you and you're in him and he's constantly flowing as a being. He never ever

620
00:45:57.720 --> 00:46:09.140
Is the same from one moment to the next. As far as the fact that spirit flows. And yes, he's the same yesterday and today and forever. But remember, just like a river is always a river, but it never looks the same in any given moment.

621
00:46:09.660 --> 00:46:17.100
That's what it's it's water and it's constantly moving. And so it's going to be moving and expressing itself in a slightly different way.

622
00:46:17.460 --> 00:46:22.560
It's the same thing with the spirit. So the spirit is moving and if you allow yourself to abide in him.

623
00:46:22.760 --> 00:46:30.720
Well, then he that spirit and that flow is constantly going to be flowing through you and then your spirit is constantly undulating and flowing through through you.

624
00:46:31.040 --> 00:46:39.240
And so it never looks the same in any given moment. So just allow yourself to move into transition as opposed to locking things down in order to control it.

625
00:46:39.540 --> 00:46:53.260
Even for your soul to just allow yourself inside to just to just flow into just move and decide, I'm going to try this. I'm going to try that. And you remember that

626
00:46:55.020 --> 00:46:57.060
That that's how I started the April intensive

627
00:46:58.060 --> 00:47:06.280
It came up with an idea and 15 minutes later I had it posted publicly on my Facebook and I committed my month to it publicly

628
00:47:06.760 --> 00:47:17.400
So I'm publicly making a journey that you know people could see if I changed it. In fact, I just found. In fact, I was just contacted by a business friend of mine.

629
00:47:18.760 --> 00:47:19.160
That

630
00:47:19.780 --> 00:47:26.860
Today that he does. He does a lot of what I used to do. He does process improvement and business consulting for like very large

631
00:47:27.860 --> 00:47:41.340
Larger corporations or larger companies were just look at the whole thing that they're doing. And so he contacted me today and he said, actually, he said, I've watched how your message has changed over the month.

632
00:47:42.280 --> 00:47:51.000
Like, yeah, it has that is not commendable in the business world. And yet he commended me for it. He said, that is amazing.

633
00:47:51.480 --> 00:48:00.560
He said, most people don't do that. Most people don't allow themselves to to move and change and be flexible.

634
00:48:01.220 --> 00:48:14.020
Because obviously, you know, we're taught that consistency is so valuable that and that you have to have total and stagnation.

635
00:48:14.900 --> 00:48:27.820
In order for something to be viewed as valuable or credible and it's not true. That is how you operate according to the tree of the knowledge of an evil where you're trying to control results and use formulas and everybody else can have these stagnant

636
00:48:28.360 --> 00:48:37.840
Standards of measure by which to measure whether or not you're being professional or whether or not you're a good business, whether or not you have value to offer in whatever you want people like that.

637
00:48:38.200 --> 00:48:51.840
You just want, you know, you want to flow with the spirit and then attract people that are attracted by your spirit and that's never going to look at the same from one moment to the next, including the decision making process.

638
00:48:52.220 --> 00:49:02.740
So I have, I have been flowing in the spirit and executing in the spirit publicly where things change for moment to moment case in point my live last night.

639
00:49:03.300 --> 00:49:12.580
I got I locked down. It had taken me a while to actually get to the point of like, no, I'm I it was I was trying to sense in the spirit. Should I do the lies or should I do pre recorded

640
00:49:12.880 --> 00:49:18.560
And I and I was going back and forth literally for days and finally thought, actually, you already know the answer.

641
00:49:19.040 --> 00:49:28.160
You're really feeling it in the spirit and yet you keep doubting it, you know, better than that. Stop doubting it. So I finally decided this is what I'm going to do. And I gave myself a deadline.

642
00:49:28.820 --> 00:49:38.380
Problem was that I couldn't shift into the spirit and then I thought I did right before the call or for the call right for the live in the end.

643
00:49:38.940 --> 00:49:49.060
And then, but, but I lost it pretty quick and then and I shifted into the soul and I went into execution mode. I'm sorry. I think that's a

644
00:49:49.060 --> 00:50:00.080
Raccoon or something at my door and went into kind of execution and agenda mode thinking, okay, I need to make sure that all of this information and material.

645
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:09.120
gets processed through. Then, so I went into my soul, and then I couldn't ever get back

646
00:50:09.120 --> 00:50:16.280
into my spirit. So, but I didn't know that, and I didn't recognize that until after. Like,

647
00:50:16.280 --> 00:50:20.720
I don't know, maybe it was like an hour after the live, because I kept asking the Lord,

648
00:50:20.720 --> 00:50:26.200
what was that, what's going on, and finally He showed me. So, you know, in the middle

649
00:50:26.200 --> 00:50:30.920
of the intensive, you know, with all of y'all live, I jump online and tell you, by the way,

650
00:50:30.920 --> 00:50:35.520
I was totally operating this soul, so guess what, we're going to redo that teaching. You

651
00:50:35.520 --> 00:50:41.360
know, so you're going to get, you're going to watch the fact that a so-called professional

652
00:50:41.360 --> 00:50:46.880
messed up and is having to redo it. And I'm perfectly fine with that, because I understand,

653
00:50:46.880 --> 00:50:52.560
okay, that's not how I want to do it. I want to do it like this, and that is how I'm choosing

654
00:50:52.560 --> 00:50:57.200
to do my business. And if somebody else, and if people want something that's more consistent

655
00:50:57.200 --> 00:51:00.920
and according to the tree of the knowledge of an evil, and well, we want it to hit these

656
00:51:00.920 --> 00:51:05.560
particular standards, and we want it to look like this, because this makes me feel safe,

657
00:51:05.560 --> 00:51:11.760
well then they'll have to choose something else. So, I'm learning, I'm taking this journey

658
00:51:11.760 --> 00:51:17.920
with y'all, and this is what your businesses are free to look like. This is, I will choose

659
00:51:17.920 --> 00:51:24.960
living my life like this, than my business being successful, than me having money, because

660
00:51:24.960 --> 00:51:33.680
trust me, in operating in my business like this, trying to learn this, I have gotten

661
00:51:33.680 --> 00:51:39.640
down to, you know, I've been trying to, I've been operating like this for months. And at

662
00:51:39.640 --> 00:51:47.880
one point, I got down to $6.54, and no money coming in, and all kinds of stuff. And I was

663
00:51:47.880 --> 00:51:55.000
talking to my brother about it, and I told him, and I had bills coming up. I thought,

664
00:51:55.000 --> 00:51:59.160
Brendan, I don't know if my car is going to be repossessed. I've never been under threat

665
00:51:59.160 --> 00:52:03.440
of that before. And I was like, oh, you know, Brendan, I don't know. And then I told him,

666
00:52:03.440 --> 00:52:10.320
I said, but you know what, I will take this life. I am in the middle of like, the worst

667
00:52:10.320 --> 00:52:14.560
fear that one could imagine, that I could imagine, so to speak. I am in the possibility

668
00:52:14.560 --> 00:52:19.320
of the biggest threat that I can imagine. And yet, I mean, as far as like my finances

669
00:52:19.320 --> 00:52:25.320
or whatever, and yet, I in this place, I still choose to operate like this, because I am

670
00:52:25.320 --> 00:52:32.120
now living in more spiritual freedom. I choose to operate like this, with, with, even if

671
00:52:32.120 --> 00:52:36.080
I don't have success in business, even if I don't have success in relationships, even

672
00:52:36.080 --> 00:52:42.080
if I don't have success in finances, I will choose this life. But that's what I chose.

673
00:52:42.080 --> 00:52:48.800
I'm choosing to operate like this. And that's why I'm doing my business like this. Not because

674
00:52:48.800 --> 00:52:53.280
I'm choosing to operate my business like this, but because I'm choosing to live like this.

675
00:52:53.280 --> 00:52:58.520
And God said, I want you to start a business. So therefore, I'm going to be doing my business,

676
00:52:58.520 --> 00:53:05.680
business in the way I like to live. So, um, it's, it's not, um, it's not always, it's

677
00:53:05.680 --> 00:53:10.840
not easy for our soul. And it's very counter to what we're used to, where we're like, shouldn't

678
00:53:10.840 --> 00:53:15.800
I have a plan? You know, I had someone reach out to me the other day, Hey, Ashley, I was

679
00:53:15.800 --> 00:53:20.440
wondering if you could help me write my business plan. I had to tell him, I'm sorry, I don't

680
00:53:20.440 --> 00:53:26.720
do that anymore. You want to contact somebody else because I don't help people with business.

681
00:53:26.720 --> 00:53:31.720
And I have this one person that continues to, to hound me about helping them with business

682
00:53:31.720 --> 00:53:36.840
strategy. And I have to tell him, I'm sorry, I don't do that anymore. If you want to learn

683
00:53:36.840 --> 00:53:44.360
how to operate your business from a place of rest, I do that now. But, um, other people

684
00:53:44.360 --> 00:53:48.720
are given the grace to teach other people, those tools, there's nothing wrong with those

685
00:53:48.720 --> 00:53:54.600
tools, but I wanted to choose to operate out of rest. So it looks and feels like what you're

686
00:53:54.600 --> 00:54:02.020
describing where you're thinking, surely something's wrong. Surely I'm supposed to know, surely,

687
00:54:02.020 --> 00:54:09.100
you know, and those are just those old paradigms that we're having to get rid of and, and understand

688
00:54:09.100 --> 00:54:13.940
that we're no longer held to, yes, it's supposed to look like this. The one thing that I would

689
00:54:13.940 --> 00:54:20.620
encourage you to do now is trust yourself. Because if you're like me, you may not be

690
00:54:20.620 --> 00:54:26.060
used to trusting yourself. Maybe, and you may not be like this, but me, if, when I was,

691
00:54:26.060 --> 00:54:31.420
if I was, um, in your position, but back when I was operating according to the tree of knowledge

692
00:54:31.420 --> 00:54:38.420
of good and evil, I wasn't doing anything unless God told me. I wasn't moving. I wasn't

693
00:54:38.420 --> 00:54:42.100
moving forward. I wasn't moving backward. I wouldn't, I would not do anything until

694
00:54:42.100 --> 00:54:47.940
God said to do something. And that's because I didn't trust myself. I had been, I basically

695
00:54:47.940 --> 00:54:53.860
received the information that, or the understanding that I couldn't make wise decisions, that

696
00:54:53.860 --> 00:54:58.500
I couldn't come up with good ideas that would be successful. I couldn't come up with ideas

697
00:54:58.500 --> 00:54:59.940
in business or on Facebook.

698
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:06.160
people would like, or people would respond to. And I, and I was just like, okay, Lord, I'm,

699
00:55:06.160 --> 00:55:10.400
I'm your servant. I'm your good little servant. And God said, I don't want a servant.

700
00:55:10.400 --> 00:55:15.440
I want a son. I want someone who will love me just like I love him. And I want, and the only

701
00:55:15.440 --> 00:55:20.160
way you can love me is if you do it out of free will. And as if you're in, if you're bringing

702
00:55:20.160 --> 00:55:25.920
yourself and your desires and your heart and your wants to the table and presenting them

703
00:55:25.920 --> 00:55:35.120
as part of the discussion, not as a, not as a, you know, and as the, as part of the primary

704
00:55:35.120 --> 00:55:40.000
discussion, not as well, you know, kid, Lord, you know, we're passing a bill here. You know,

705
00:55:40.000 --> 00:55:44.800
can I tack this on as a writer? No, it's got to be part of the, part of the actual,

706
00:55:45.440 --> 00:55:53.120
part of the actual full-blown discussion. And God likes that. So you may, you may already have,

707
00:55:54.080 --> 00:55:58.480
may already be operating like that, but I just wanted to encourage you that I wasn't.

708
00:55:59.680 --> 00:56:06.560
And I would have, and when I first started operating in rest, I had to learn that he

709
00:56:06.560 --> 00:56:14.240
actually valued my opinion and he called me to present that as part of our mutual discussion.

710
00:56:15.120 --> 00:56:20.160
So anyway, I may not, you may not have needed that, but maybe somebody who will watch this

711
00:56:20.160 --> 00:56:29.200
live later. I totally can. Yeah, exactly. When you jumped on and said that show, I was like,

712
00:56:29.200 --> 00:56:32.800
that's how I feel. Like, if I'm not worrying about my business, I feel irresponsible.

713
00:56:33.360 --> 00:56:40.240
Like, I feel like I'm just off in dreamland. And I know like growing up, my family really

714
00:56:40.240 --> 00:56:45.520
looked down on people who like, we called them fly by nights, basically like people with no plan

715
00:56:46.320 --> 00:56:51.760
and they just flew by the seat of their pants their whole life. And, you know, looking back

716
00:56:51.760 --> 00:56:57.280
though, now I see that those people had a lot of close calls, but there were never really any

717
00:56:57.280 --> 00:57:04.640
real disasters. And I feel like I lived my life in a lot of anxiety and so did my family.

718
00:57:05.680 --> 00:57:10.960
And it was interesting. I was just talking to one of my friends the other day and I was saying how,

719
00:57:10.960 --> 00:57:15.600
you know, like my husband and I grew up two very different lifestyles, his family,

720
00:57:17.040 --> 00:57:22.480
they had very little as far as financially. But my husband never worried about money going out.

721
00:57:22.480 --> 00:57:26.880
Never. Like he was never stressed out about money. He wasn't worried about anything like that. Sorry,

722
00:57:26.880 --> 00:57:34.400
my phone just said it's fine. But, and I grew up, we were financially, you know, pretty stable and,

723
00:57:34.400 --> 00:57:40.480
but my parents argued about money a lot and they're in a much better place now, but

724
00:57:40.480 --> 00:57:44.800
I had a lot of financial anxiety growing up and it's just so weird, like the difference between

725
00:57:44.800 --> 00:57:50.000
those two. But yeah, back to the question that Cheryl asked. I feel like that has been one of

726
00:57:50.000 --> 00:57:56.480
my biggest struggles is I feel like just when I'm ready to just really work from rest, all of a

727
00:57:56.480 --> 00:58:02.800
sudden I'm like, I can just see myself in three months with my business standing in ruins. And

728
00:58:02.800 --> 00:58:09.760
I'm just like, that was not a good plan. That's just my fear. Like that's kind of, yeah, where

729
00:58:09.760 --> 00:58:17.440
am I? Yeah. So rest is not inactivity. Rest is the state of being in which we understand that God

730
00:58:17.440 --> 00:58:24.320
is providing the increase. The farmer is sowing the seed. Then he goes to bed, he sleeps, he wakes

731
00:58:24.320 --> 00:58:31.040
up, the crop comes up and he doesn't know how. And the Bible talks about that because God wants

732
00:58:31.040 --> 00:58:35.680
to provide the increase and operating according to the tree of knowledge of an evil is us wanting

733
00:58:35.680 --> 00:58:40.960
to provide the increase. God wants to provide the increase and he wants to father us into how to

734
00:58:40.960 --> 00:58:50.320
govern the increase. But we don't actually have to worry about providing the increase. So, and

735
00:58:50.320 --> 00:58:58.080
in governing it, it's from a place of rest because remember that creation naturally without our

736
00:58:58.080 --> 00:59:04.080
effort responds to a son of God who knows who he is, which is why in business, the most important

737
00:59:04.080 --> 00:59:09.200
thing is to understand who we are and stand in that identity. It's why we've been talking, you

738
00:59:09.200 --> 00:59:15.120
know, for y'all's first week, that why the first week is filled with, I'm talking about understanding

739
00:59:15.120 --> 00:59:22.080
and standing in the extent and continuing to push into further measures of the depth of

740
00:59:22.080 --> 00:59:28.080
God's love and the extremity, the wild passion of his love, and then also understanding our oneness

741
00:59:28.080 --> 00:59:32.720
with him. Because when a son of God does not know who he is, he cannot govern his business

742
00:59:33.520 --> 00:59:39.680
from a place of rest. He cannot govern his business as a son of God. He's because he

743
00:59:39.680 --> 00:59:44.960
doesn't understand that his, who he is, and so creation doesn't know how to respond to him.

744
00:59:45.920 --> 00:59:54.320
And therefore, he has to work to get creation to do something. But when he is who he is,

745
00:59:54.320 --> 00:59:58.000
the creation natural and he just identifies the creation around him,

746
00:59:58.000 --> 00:59:59.920
including business because business is a part of creation.

747
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:07.640
It's just a part of the metaphysical, so to speak.

748
01:00:07.640 --> 01:00:11.760
Because business, the purpose of business, which I'll mention, I'll just touch on really

749
01:00:11.760 --> 01:00:17.880
quick, because this is coming later, but the purpose of business is the movement of money.

750
01:00:17.880 --> 01:00:19.320
It's not money.

751
01:00:19.320 --> 01:00:20.760
It's the movement of money.

752
01:00:20.760 --> 01:00:27.720
It's constantly keeping a flow, just like spirit is constantly in a flow, and that breathes

753
01:00:27.720 --> 01:00:31.520
life, that breathes life.

754
01:00:31.520 --> 01:00:32.520
Constant flow breathes life.

755
01:00:32.520 --> 01:00:38.600
Scientifically, if something at its very, very core stops moving, like the atoms, the

756
01:00:38.600 --> 01:00:50.480
quarks, everything, if everything stops moving, that's the scientific definition of death.

757
01:00:50.480 --> 01:00:56.360
In order to have life, you must have constant movement and constant flow.

758
01:00:56.360 --> 01:01:02.920
This is the same thing, that the purpose of business is to facilitate movement, which

759
01:01:02.920 --> 01:01:03.920
breathes life.

760
01:01:03.920 --> 01:01:12.400
Anyway, I'm trying to remember how I got off on all of that, because we were talking about

761
01:01:12.400 --> 01:01:13.400
feeling irresponsible.

762
01:01:13.400 --> 01:01:22.040
Yeah, if you're not operating from a place of rest, so again, rest is not an activity.

763
01:01:23.040 --> 01:01:25.880
It's just a state of being, understanding that God provides the increase, we just govern

764
01:01:25.880 --> 01:01:29.600
it.

765
01:01:29.600 --> 01:01:36.000
We have to know who it is that we are first, and when we know who we are, creation, including

766
01:01:36.000 --> 01:01:45.080
our business, will naturally respond to being led by a Lord and a King, who understands

767
01:01:45.080 --> 01:01:50.480
and knows and is standing in his position as the Son of God, and it will naturally know

768
01:01:50.480 --> 01:01:51.480
what to do.

769
01:01:51.480 --> 01:01:58.720
We don't have to, in fact, people can govern creation without even knowing how that aspect

770
01:01:58.720 --> 01:02:01.160
of creation is supposed to function.

771
01:02:01.160 --> 01:02:06.360
In our spirit, we can identify it, and it will respond naturally, and we'll just stand

772
01:02:06.360 --> 01:02:07.360
by and watch it.

773
01:02:07.360 --> 01:02:12.600
So it's kind of interesting how that works, but yeah.

774
01:02:12.600 --> 01:02:17.240
So does anyone have a question before we jump off?

775
01:02:17.240 --> 01:02:18.760
Just can't wait.

776
01:02:18.760 --> 01:02:20.760
Is everyone good?

777
01:02:20.760 --> 01:02:28.640
Okay, well, it's good to see everybody.

778
01:02:28.640 --> 01:02:33.240
I will talk to y'all, well, it'll be next Thursday.

779
01:02:33.240 --> 01:02:34.440
I'll be dropping some more.

780
01:02:34.440 --> 01:02:38.920
I'm about to get on a live for doing some more teachings, and then some of y'all, I'll

781
01:02:38.920 --> 01:02:42.560
be seeing in your private sessions, so I'll talk to y'all later.

782
01:02:42.760 --> 01:02:43.760
Okay, bye-bye.

783
01:02:43.760 --> 01:02:44.760
Bye.
