[00:00:01] Speaker A: Good morning.
[00:00:02] Speaker B: Good morning.
[00:00:02] Speaker A: How are you on this fine, fine, beautiful day?
[00:00:06] Speaker B: I hope you're having a great day.
[00:00:07] Speaker A: Today and I hope you are excited today because today is the day the Lord hath made. We will be glad. We will rejoice in it. Rejoice in every single moment that you have under the sun in this cosmos, in this arrangement. Be thankful, be happy. Continually give God that sacrifice. Praise. Praise him and thank him. So I was in Dallas the last couple days. And I go down there for my heart. I have to go to a doctor down there.
And all good news. It was all. I'm happy about that. But there are a couple things that I ran into that has absolutely thrown me out. And I'm just. I'm trying to gather my thoughts about, about this and there's no control. I have no control over it. And you can, I can really spin out. And this is the type of thing that anybody can spin out. We are all. Even if you believe God, even if you have a firm reliance, even if you have faith that can move mountains, you're gonna get hit with things that are gonna throw you, that are gonna toss you to and fro. And this certain thing I have no control over. And it's just eating me alive like it's bothering me big time.
So what do you do?
You gotta go to the Word. And this is when you start to have. You have to have that relationship with God. Cause this is where I talk to God, I write to God, I pray. I mean, there's so many different things that I do to renovate my thoughts. Without God, I don't see how you can function.
I don't understand how people can get through life. Because you might hit something that will absolutely spin you out.
And you got to be able to regain control, regain your thoughts, regain the comfort that comes from God knowing that is out from God, that situations get solved. And you start to go to God and pray. Tribulation, work with patience, patience, experience and experience hope. And hope will never cause shame. And once you start to build a relationship where you know that God's going to take care of things and you can just release this stuff, you don't need to walk your life in it. You do. You don't need to be an anxious ball of anxiousness. A ball of anxiousness. An anxious ball of anxiousness. You don't need to do that.
That's not what God wants from you. And for you in this life, you have to change and renovate your mind. And that comes from the Word.
The Word you put the Word in your mind, you find verses, and you change what you think about.
What as he thinketh, so he is. What you think about makes you you. That's the heart of your distinctive character. You cannot think about this kind of stuff or it will. It will eat you alive. And people can. Can feel that and even see it around you.
You don't want to be that person. God doesn't want that for you. And that's why you start to pray. You start to go to the Word, you start to understand what the Word says. And you change your life, you change your mind. You renovate.
Anyways, if you go to verse 6, this has nothing to do with how.
[00:02:52] Speaker B: I was going to teach.
[00:02:53] Speaker A: But if you go to verse six, or Proverbs, chapter six, verse one, it says, my son, if thou be a surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand or made a contract with a stranger, thou art snared or lured, or set a trap with the words or sayings of thy mouth. Thou art captured or seized with the words or sayings of thy mouth.
It's funny because God. God opens up each and every situation that I think you come in contact with, especially in the Word. Like if you read the Word in Proverbs and Ecclesiastes.
These little nuggets of information will get you through.
You're not to take on the debts of other people. That's what this verse says. My son, if thou be a surety for thy friend, if you assure a debt for thy friend, thou has stricken or made a contract with a stranger.
You're not making the contract.
Your friend made the contract and you're taking it on for them. And now your mouth has set a trap for you by taking on that surety. You can't do that. Don't do it. And it's hard.
There's been a couple situations where I wanted to take. Take it on. You don't do that.
As hard as it is. If you jump down to verse six, go to the ant. This has to do with people who don't work. Go to the ant, thou sluggard. Consider her ways and be wise. Which having no guide, overseer or ruler, provideth her meat in the summer and gathereth her food in the harvest. How long will you sleep, O sluggard? When that wind wilt thou arise out of thy sleep. A little sleep and a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep, so shall thy poverty come as one that travaileth, and thy want as an armed man.
You have to work if you're not. If you're a lazy person, you got to change your mind. You got to. I don't care what it takes. You got to change who you are.
I don't care if you wake up and you have to make your bed in the morning to start. It doesn't matter. You can't be lazy in life. God tells you this over and over and over again. And it doesn't matter what the world says.
You got to kind of wipe out the knowledge. The wisdom of this world is not wise in God's eyes.
God determines what's wise. God determines the right way, the right path. And once you start to read this stuff and wrap your mind about around this stuff, you see the truth of it all over the place. And the fallacy of what man teaches.
You got to work.
I'm going to just finish up with this quickly. These six things doth the Lord hate. Seven are an abomination to Him. Verse 17. A proud look don't be haughty.
A lying tongue don't lie.
Hands that shed innocent blood, don't be wicked or cruel.
And heart that devises wicked imaginations, don't think about things that are wicked and evil.
Feet that swift to be running to. Feet that be swift in running to mischief. You know these type of people, people who just love to get in trouble. I'm not going to lie. I'm kind of one of those people you got to stay away from that a false witness don't speak lies.
And he that soweth discord among brethren. You can't be that type of person that sows discords or arguments or is mischievous around people.
You just have to change the carnal nature that's in.
Whatever you get affected by God will open it up in your Word, in the Word. And that's why I love when it talks about how the anointing that is anointed with you will teach you.
You see it, you know it. Especially when you start to read.
Then I implore you to read every day. Pick a verse, pick a chapter, read it every day and change your mind to what the Word says. It'll change your life.
Have a beautiful day today. Pray the big prayers. Lift everything up in the name of Jesus Christ. Again, when you pray, who do you pray to? You never pray to Christ. It won't go anywhere. You pray to God. Lifting it up in the name of Jesus Christ. The word prayer is specific. It means praying for to Yahweh, to God.
Lifting it up in the name of Jesus Christ.
[00:07:05] Speaker B: Have a great day.
[00:07:05] Speaker A: God bless you and your family. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
Well Heavenly Father thank you so much for today.
[00:07:21] Speaker B: I pray for that situation.
Yeah I don't you got to take care of it and I just pray that the eyes of understanding are opened up with everybody that's dealing with it. I thank you again for my family for the business that you provided. I pray that the next step is the right step, the direction is the right direction and that we can continually build and grow and that the people that we work with are taken care of. I thank you for the opportunity that you give us to walk this wonderful life and I pray that you continually work with me in the Word and that you show me the inheritance and how much of a joy that's been and yeah I just thank for a great day today.
[00:07:59] Speaker A: I lift up everything to you in.
[00:08:01] Speaker B: The name of my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.
[00:08:18] Speaker A: Sam.
