Episode Transcript
[00:00:01] Good morning. Good morning. How are you on this fine, fine, beautiful day? I hope you're having a great day today. 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 this sun, in this cosmos, in this arrangement.
[00:00:19] Be thankful, be happy. Continually give God that sacrifice. Praise. Praise him and thank him.
[00:00:24] I'm still on this, giving it to God, putting it in God's hands. It's. It's just wonderful what it's doing for me. And. And to be able to place those thoughts. Like yesterday, my brother was driving the most bizarre thought in the world. And I was thinking about him getting into a car accident. Now, I have no idea where this stuff stems from. I don't see where it comes from at all, because he's a great driver, you know, but that's where my mind went. And to be able to. To pick that up and put it in God's hands, say, God, it's in your hands. I pray for his protection. It's in your hands. And let the thought go is a wonderful thing because you're not sitting there dwelling on it and spinning out on it. Same thing happened today. I have all this work to do. I have to get out these chairs.
[00:01:10] Time pressure's up. Of course, it's a new product. Can't be just something. That's something I've done a hundred times.
[00:01:17] Again, I start spinning out. I put it in God's hands and I just drop it.
[00:01:22] And when you start to read the Word, when it comes to this, like I'm reading Heart right now, he talks about how he's close to the. To the broken, the crushed, the destroyed.
[00:01:32] And if you're going through that on top of just the little things, he's there for you. If you go to Psalms chapter 34, verse 18, it says the Lord is nigh or close to them that are of a broken heart. And again, heart is your. That's your emotion. It's the seat of your distinctive character. But there's a lot that goes into this.
[00:01:54] It's very widely used for the feelings, the will, even the intellect. Likewise for the center of anything. It's your feelings, it's your intellect, it's what you think about, it's what you emotionally feel. It's the seed of what makes you you. And the Lord is close to them that are of a broken heart and saveth such as be of a contrite or literally crushed spirit.
[00:02:20] He's close to you. If you're going through things in your life that are negative, if you feel broken, if you are broken, he's close to you. So that ran me down. Like this whole contrite thing.
[00:02:33] If you go to Isaiah, chapter 57, verse 15, it says, for thus saith the high and the lofty one that inhabit eternity, whose name is holy.
[00:02:44] I dwell in the high and holy place with him also. That is of a contrite or destroyed. And it's destroyed into powder and humble spirit. To revive the spirit of the humble and to revive the heart of the contrite or destroyed ones.
[00:03:01] He will revive your heart, the thoughts, the mind, what you emotionally think about. He'll revive, he'll restore.
[00:03:13] And you got to go to His Word and you got to have that reverential, all giving God these problems. We are not to live our life in the vanity of life.
[00:03:24] The vanity is that which means nothing if you spin out. I mean, how many things have you thought about in the future that never comes to pass, ever? How many things have you planned this actually? How about this? What have you planned that has actually come to pass the way you think it's going to happen?
[00:03:39] I'm going to guess zero.
[00:03:43] God knows us. God wants the best for us. And he's there close to those that are destroyed, close to those that are hurting. He's there close to people who are just dealing with anything. You start to have a reverential awe and a reliance on God. Don't allow your mind to spin out. You choose what you think about and there's an option, an opportunity to give those thoughts, those negative thoughts to God. Knowing that of God, he will take care of him. And he's the most high. You know what I mean? He's the Creator of the heavens and the earth. He cares about you. He tells you that in his word. So why dwell on it? We are to live this life in peace. Grace, which is God's loving disposition, and peace, which is the state of undisturbed, not being disturbed. Undisturbed. Well, being comes through the instrument of having an epignosis. A true and personal relationship with God where you hear from God and you heed his advice and His Son, Jesus Christ. That's two different things.
[00:04:46] You build a relationship with God. Being able to give God your problems is a phenomenal relationship. To have and to dwell in a state of peace that's undisturbed by the outside world.
[00:05:00] It's a spiritual state. You can't get it from the five senses.
[00:05:05] And I implore you to do it. Try it.
[00:05:07] If you have a thought today that's negative, give it to God, put it in God's hands and let it go and think about something else.
[00:05:16] That relationship will start to build and it's man, it's wonderful. Have a great day today. Pray the big prayers lift everything up in the name of Jesus Christ. When you pray, it's always to God, never to Jesus Christ. You pray to God, lifting it up in the name of Jesus Christ. It's biblical with that sacrifice of thanksgiving. Have a great day today. God bless you and your family. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
[00:05:50] Well, Heavenly Father, thank you so much for everything that's going on. I pray for today. I do ask that you give me the motivation and the energy to finish this stuff. I thank you also for the people you've surrounded us with. I pray for the new person and if you bring somebody in, you just open that door, close that door, that it's the right person that we can start moving on as a business again. I thank you for everybody we work with that you take care of them today, that they enjoy the day off. And I just thank you for the abundance that you provide.
[00:06:19] Disconcerting all those situations. Again, I thank you for a great day. A A blessed day. And lift everything up to you in the name my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.
