- 0:52Speaker 3: your host, I'm your brother all the way from Las Vegas,
- 0:56Speaker 3: mister his Hot and today we're gonna dive deep into
- 1:00Speaker 3: the Book of Acts. This episode is all about courage
- 1:04Speaker 3: when fear tries to shut you down. Amen, We're gonna
- 1:09Speaker 3: cover Acts chapter eighteen, and we're gonna go from verse
- 1:14Speaker 3: nine all the way to verse seventeen, you know, coming
- 1:17Speaker 3: at you from the New King James. This is where
- 1:21Speaker 3: God directs courage and he speaks directly to the apostle
- 1:28Speaker 3: Paul when he is in Corinth. So we're gonna get
- 1:33Speaker 3: some great insights out of this. If you deal with fear,
- 1:38Speaker 3: and I believe we all do belove it. This podcast
- 1:42Speaker 3: episode is for you. And if it's not for you,
- 1:46Speaker 3: it's for me because I know I've dealt with fear
- 1:52Speaker 3: being my background, coming from an abusive background, fear has
- 1:57Speaker 3: definitely been a struggle in my life. So I'm excited
- 2:01Speaker 3: about this. Amen. And also we want to invite you
- 2:05Speaker 3: to get more out of this podcast. This is an
- 2:08Speaker 3: interactive podcast, so we want you to join us in
- 2:11Speaker 3: the live chat. We are in the live chat every
- 2:14Speaker 3: day Monday through Saturday at eleven o'clock am, waiting to
- 2:19Speaker 3: hear from you, to get your questions, your input, to
- 2:24Speaker 3: pray with you. You know, God called us to fellowship right
- 2:28Speaker 3: together together, and we need to hold each other accountable
- 2:34Speaker 3: because that is what's going to help us stay on
- 2:37Speaker 3: that narrow path that leads to life. You see, sometimes
- 2:41Speaker 3: we get lax, we get tired, we get lazy, we
- 2:46Speaker 3: get distracted, but we need to have people around us
- 2:50Speaker 3: that will encourage us to stay focused. You know, remember
- 2:55Speaker 3: the parable about the ten versions, right, five were foolish
- 2:59Speaker 3: in five. I've made it into the wedding because the
- 3:04Speaker 3: other five did not hold each other accountable. Right, They
- 3:08Speaker 3: made foolish choices in life. They were playing. They thought
- 3:11Speaker 3: this was a game, but this is not a game.
- 3:14Speaker 3: So that goes with our accountability partner segment. We'll talk
- 3:18Speaker 3: about that later in the show. But all you have

- 3:51Speaker 3: we have a lot of new loggins, a lot of
- 3:54Speaker 3: people who joined the live chat. The other day, my

- 4:05Speaker 3: encouraging to see you guys log on. Hopefully we can
- 4:08Speaker 3: get you every day at eleven on the podcast or
- 4:13Speaker 3: jump in on the replay as well. All right, let's
- 4:17Speaker 3: go before our heavenly father, Father God, we give you
- 4:21Speaker 3: this time, we devote this time, and we give you
- 4:25Speaker 3: our focus. Right now, Lord, we ask a God that
- 4:29Speaker 3: you will teach us, that your spirit will lead us,
- 4:33Speaker 3: and that you will open up the eyes of our understanding.
- 4:37Speaker 3: Thank you, Lord for the work that you've done in
- 4:39Speaker 3: Paul the Apostle. We asked that you will duplicate a
- 4:43Speaker 3: work in us. O. Lord, teach us how to be faithful,
- 4:46Speaker 3: teach us how to be effective and how to make
- 4:48Speaker 3: an impact for the kingdom. And we ask this in
- 4:52Speaker 3: Jesus' name. Amen and Amen hallelujah. Well, like I said,
- 5:02Speaker 3: we are diving into Book of Acts, chapter eighteen. This
- 5:07Speaker 3: is where the apostle Paul decided to go and focus
- 5:11Speaker 3: and minister to the Gentiles. He went to the Jews first,
- 5:16Speaker 3: because salvation is of the Jews first. Then it goes
- 5:20Speaker 3: to the Gentiles. God is a god of order, Amen.
- 5:25Speaker 3: And so I look at the Jewish race as our
- 5:28Speaker 3: elder brother. Right. This is a human family. We are
- 5:32Speaker 3: God's children and they're just our big brothers. Amen. They
- 5:38Speaker 3: have the position of the first born in the family.
- 5:44Speaker 3: And God loves us as well. He doesn't love him
- 5:47Speaker 3: more than us. He loves all of us. He has
- 5:51Speaker 3: no respect of persons. Amen. So there's no reason to
- 5:54Speaker 3: be racial or anything like that. But just know that
- 5:57Speaker 3: God is a God of order. We love our Jewish
- 6:00Speaker 3: brothers and sisters. Amen. But they failed their calling. And
- 6:09Speaker 3: now God has taken the vineyard from the Jewish nation
- 6:13Speaker 3: and He's given it to us Gentiles. And so this
- 6:17Speaker 3: is symbolic in what Paul does right here. He pivots,
- 6:21Speaker 3: he does a shift, He leaves a synagogue and he
- 6:24Speaker 3: goes right next door to a house where there's a
- 6:29Speaker 3: gentile and starts ministering to the gentile believers. But we
- 6:35Speaker 3: noticed that the ruler of the synagogue believed in his household.
- 6:39Speaker 3: So it was a strategic move on behalf of Paul.
- 6:45Speaker 3: The apostles. Sometimes we got to re strategic on how
- 6:49Speaker 3: we minister and reach people. Amen. All right, well that's
- 6:53Speaker 3: the background, and let's pick it up in verse nine,
- 6:59Speaker 3: ay man, And we're gonna read it first, and we're
- 7:01Speaker 3: going to go back and break it down. Now. The
- 7:03Speaker 3: Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision,
- 7:08Speaker 3: and not to be to not to be afraid. By
- 7:10Speaker 3: the way, follow along, get your bibles, you know, passing
- 7:13Speaker 3: your highlighters, and follow along with us. Do not be afraid,
- 7:17Speaker 3: but speak, and do not keep silent, for I am
- 7:22Speaker 3: with you, and no one will attack you to hurt you,
- 7:26Speaker 3: for I have many people in this city. And he
- 7:30Speaker 3: continued there for a year and six months, teaching the
- 7:34Speaker 3: word of God amongst them. When Gallio was pro counsul
- 7:42Speaker 3: of a Ki, the Jews with one accord rose up
- 7:47Speaker 3: against Paul and brought him to the judgment seat, saying
- 7:53Speaker 3: this fellow persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.
- 8:00Speaker 3: And when Paul was about to open his mouth, Galiol
- 8:05Speaker 3: said to the Jews, if it were a matter of
- 8:08Speaker 3: wrongdoing or wicked crimes, old Jews, there would be a
- 8:13Speaker 3: reason why I should bear with you. But if it
- 8:18Speaker 3: is a question of words and names of your own law,
- 8:23Speaker 3: look to it yourselves, for I do not want to
- 8:27Speaker 3: be a judge of such matters. Amen. And he drove
- 8:33Speaker 3: them from the judgment seat. Then all the Greeks took
- 8:39Speaker 3: so softenes. I'm telling you now, I'm gonna struggle with
- 8:45Speaker 3: these words, with these names the ruler of the synagogue
- 8:50Speaker 3: and beat him before the judgment seat. But Galliol took
- 8:56Speaker 3: no notice of those things. And man, hallelujah. All right,
- 9:03Speaker 3: let's break it down and go back over. Now, let's
- 9:10Speaker 3: check out verse nine and verse ten. The Lord appears
- 9:16Speaker 3: to Paul, and he appears to him in a vision
- 9:19Speaker 3: at night. Now, Paul had just came from Athens, like
- 9:24Speaker 3: I mentioned earlier. And after the response was mixed, there
- 9:29Speaker 3: were some people who mocked and some wanted to hear
- 9:33Speaker 3: more of the message. Now in Corinth, Corinth was a
- 9:39Speaker 3: wild city. Corinth was a city that was very immoral
- 9:45Speaker 3: and full of idolatry and sin. It reminds me a
- 9:48Speaker 3: lot of Las Vegas right now. Being in this city,
- 9:52Speaker 3: Paul most likely was feeling discouraged or maybe even afraid. Now,
- 10:00Speaker 3: God is so intimate with his people and his servants.
- 10:04Speaker 3: God knew Paul's heart, and God knew every time fear
- 10:11Speaker 3: was trying to creep in. Now, Jesus personally encouraged Paul.
- 10:20Speaker 3: Jesus gave him that personal touch and he ministered to
- 10:25Speaker 3: his heart, and he told him do not be afraid,
- 10:30Speaker 3: but speak and do not keep silent, for I am
- 10:35Speaker 3: with you, hallelujah. And I check this out. The answer
- 10:42Speaker 3: to all of our fears right here is in this
- 10:44Speaker 3: passage of scripture. If you want to know how to
- 10:48Speaker 3: conquer fear, then the answer is in the presence of
- 10:55Speaker 3: the Lord. He said that I am with you. He
- 11:00Speaker 3: gave them the reason not to fear, and he promised protection,
- 11:10Speaker 3: and he said, I have many people in this city. Now,
- 11:14Speaker 3: obviously these are people who will respond to the gospel.
- 11:20Speaker 3: So that's why we got to press on. You might
- 11:23Speaker 3: have ten people that reject your message, but that one
- 11:26Speaker 3: person was at one person that you were supposed to reach.
- 11:32Speaker 3: Don't get discouraged and shut it down. We have to
- 11:37Speaker 3: stay faithful. We don't know who is going to come
- 11:39Speaker 3: to the Lord now, Family, how many times have you
- 11:44Speaker 3: felt like shutting down your witness because of the opposition,
- 11:49Speaker 3: or even the rejection, or just the weight of culture itself. Now,
- 11:58Speaker 3: God is saying this same thing to us today in
- 12:02Speaker 3: our cities, Vegas, your town, wherever you are, do not
- 12:10Speaker 3: stay silent. Speak the truth in love. There are people
- 12:15Speaker 3: around you who are ready to hear the message. Amen.
- 12:22Speaker 3: Verse eleven. Paul stays a year in six months teaching
- 12:29Speaker 3: the word of God. So he was encouraged to the
- 12:39Speaker 3: work that he stayed a year in six months in Corinth,
- 12:44Speaker 3: this crazyzy city. Right, the encouragement of the Lord went
- 12:49Speaker 3: a long way. Paul settled and he built the church
- 12:58Speaker 3: instead of running to the next city, which we've if
- 13:02Speaker 3: you've been following us in the Book of Acts, some
- 13:05Speaker 3: cities he had to flee. Some cities he had to
- 13:10Speaker 3: run for his life. Some cities he had to leave.
- 13:16Speaker 3: Paul in Silas, I mean Timothy in Silas, he had
- 13:23Speaker 3: to leave them and wait for them to catch up.
- 13:25Speaker 3: In the next city, but this city is a little different.
- 13:28Speaker 3: He had the opportunity to stay here and to be
- 13:32Speaker 3: planted for a year in six months. And so we
- 13:38Speaker 3: have to know when it's time to leave or when
- 13:42Speaker 3: it's time to stay. And man, we have to allow
- 13:46Speaker 3: the spirit to lead us. Now, consistency wins in ministry.
- 13:58Speaker 3: When God has called you to do something to fulfill
- 14:02Speaker 3: your calling. We have to stay consistency.
- 14:11Speaker 4: It looks like you lost another one.
- 14:15Speaker 3: It might take a long time, it might take a
- 14:20Speaker 3: while before you see the fruit. But if you stay consistent, beloved,
- 14:26Speaker 3: and what God called you to, we have to trust
- 14:31Speaker 3: the process right now, verse twelve through seventeen. Now the
- 14:39Speaker 3: Jews dragged Paul before Gallio the pro council, now according
- 14:46Speaker 3: to him right, not according but accusing him. They are
- 14:55Speaker 3: accusing Paul of persuading people to worship contrary to the law.
- 15:02Speaker 3: That's all I was trying to say. They were accusing
- 15:04Speaker 3: Paul concerning their law. But Galliol sees it as a
- 15:10Speaker 3: Jewish religious dispute, not a Roman legal matter, and he
- 15:19Speaker 3: refuses to judge it, and to even to the point
- 15:27Speaker 3: where he let the crowd beat Sossenes the synagogue ruler.
- 15:34Speaker 3: The crowd turned on the ruler and beat him, and
- 15:38Speaker 3: he wasn't even interested. He didn't even intervene. He just
- 15:43Speaker 3: allowed it to happen. Now, I believe, Beloved, that this
- 15:50Speaker 3: is divine protection and action. Right here, God used a
- 15:56Speaker 3: pagan official to shield his servant. The opposition backfired and
- 16:04Speaker 3: Paul was able to continue his work. Now, sometimes God
- 16:09Speaker 3: protects you through unexpected people or even circumstances. Don't fight
- 16:16Speaker 3: every battle in your own strength. As a matter of fact,
- 16:21Speaker 3: the Lord says, I will repay. Allow the Lord to
- 16:25Speaker 3: fight your battle. Trust the Lord who says he said
- 16:30Speaker 3: many people in your city, including those now the Lord
- 16:42Speaker 3: will tell you when I'm trying to say that, there
- 16:44Speaker 3: are many people in your city, and he has people
- 16:51Speaker 3: of influence, positions of power. God have people in all
- 16:58Speaker 3: places to help you fulfill the call and to fulfill
- 17:03Speaker 3: your destiny. We don't have to fight our battles. I
- 17:08Speaker 3: was just telling my daughter the other day. She's fourteen
- 17:12Speaker 3: years old, and she went to a wedding and she
- 17:15Speaker 3: was saying a forty year old woman was like getting
- 17:18Speaker 3: in her face, and she's saying, well, she will fight
- 17:23Speaker 3: a grown woman like she's not going to allow this
- 17:27Speaker 3: woman to get in her face and disrespect her. Now,
- 17:31Speaker 3: of course, if you have to defend yourself, defend yourself.
- 17:36Speaker 3: But I was trying to let her know, according to
- 17:38Speaker 3: the word, no, you don't have to get in her face.
- 17:43Speaker 3: Allow God to fight your battle. And might think, you know,
- 17:46Speaker 3: you might feel like you're being weak or or you know,
- 17:50Speaker 3: people think you're scared and all this stuff. But the
- 17:53Speaker 3: truth is God promises to protect us, and he will
- 17:58Speaker 3: use other people to fight for you. And this has
- 18:01Speaker 3: happened time and time again. On certain jobs and certain projects,
- 18:08Speaker 3: you know, just coming up, I've had people that were
- 18:11Speaker 3: just out to get me, you know what I mean.
- 18:15Speaker 3: And sometimes I made a mistake, you know. Sometimes one
- 18:18Speaker 3: time I was like seventeen, and I've like flooded a
- 18:23Speaker 3: room or something. I used to clean buses and stuff,
- 18:26Speaker 3: and there was a manager that was just after me,
- 18:31Speaker 3: but his boss stopped, like his boss basically came against him,
- 18:37Speaker 3: and I was protected. So God will definitely work out
- 18:43Speaker 3: situations and circumstances like that. I am a witness to
- 18:50Speaker 3: the protection of God, Amen, and I love it. God says,
- 18:57Speaker 3: do not fear, do not be afraid, because I am
- 19:05Speaker 3: with you hallelujah. All right, let's take a break.
- 19:12Speaker 5: You are listening to the light of Las Vegas. This
- 19:16Speaker 5: is the hiss hop radio show.

- 20:55Speaker 3: It's just.
- 21:04Speaker 5: You are listening to the light of Las Vegas. This
- 21:08Speaker 5: is the hiss hop radio show.
- 21:27Speaker 3: All right, all right, we are back. That was a
- 21:31Speaker 3: new artist, justin King, justin King. Yes, yes, we gotta
- 21:38Speaker 3: get more aggressive. You know that there is a whole
- 21:42Speaker 3: army of demons out to get us, and so we
- 21:46Speaker 3: gotta rise up and showing them that we are not playing. Amen.
- 21:54Speaker 3: So we're in the Book of Acts right now. We
- 21:57Speaker 3: are telling you here to go. Amen. Jesus himself gives
- 22:06Speaker 3: us the reason not to fear because he promises never
- 22:11Speaker 3: to leave us nor forsake us, and he knows how
- 22:16Speaker 3: to protect his people. Amen. Hallelujah. All right, now it's
- 22:24Speaker 3: time for the Accountability Partner segments. This segment I mentioned
- 22:28Speaker 3: a little earlier in the podcast, but it was put
- 22:31Speaker 3: in my heart to create on this podcast because I
- 22:35Speaker 3: work the altar of my church in I sometimes see
- 22:40Speaker 3: some of our brothers and sisters who struggle with the
- 22:42Speaker 3: same thing, like year after year, and I started to ask,
- 22:47Speaker 3: Holy Spirit, why is that there is a process that
- 22:51Speaker 3: is missing in a lot of people's lives. And that's
- 22:54Speaker 3: the process of discipleship. Allowing someone to pour into your life,
- 22:59Speaker 3: allowing someone to correct you when you need to be corrected,
- 23:02Speaker 3: allowing someone to encourage you and to basically evaluate you.
- 23:09Speaker 3: Right to oversee, this is something that God is put
- 23:12Speaker 3: in place, and it's something that's essential. A lot of
- 23:15Speaker 3: us we think we're grown, we think we can do
- 23:17Speaker 3: it on our own. That we don't need anybody, but
- 23:20Speaker 3: we have blind spots. Beloved it, we do, and we
- 23:24Speaker 3: can easily deceive our own hearts. And so that fellowship.
- 23:30Speaker 3: That's why God gives us pastors and leaders, and he
- 23:32Speaker 3: gives us gifts. He says that he likens us as sheep,
- 23:36Speaker 3: and sheep are dumb animals, and we're talking about in
- 23:39Speaker 3: this spirit. So we need a shepherd. We need that.
- 23:43Speaker 1: Now.
- 23:43Speaker 3: I'm not saying that we need to depend on that.
- 23:46Speaker 3: There's a good, healthy balance. Yes, we need to hear
- 23:49Speaker 3: the Lord for ourselves. I'm not saying you need somebody
- 23:51Speaker 3: to rule and dominate your life, no, because I've been
- 23:54Speaker 3: involved in ministries like that as well. So it's a
- 23:57Speaker 3: miracle that I'm even talking about in a acountability partner,
- 24:01Speaker 3: because I've had pastors who've abused accountability to control your life,
- 24:07Speaker 3: and that's witchcraft. You know, a healthy accountability partner will
- 24:11Speaker 3: bring you the scripture and correct you. You know, if
- 24:15Speaker 3: you're thinking about, hey, I don't want to pay ties
- 24:18Speaker 3: anymore something like that, they'll be like, uhh, that's not
- 24:21Speaker 3: what the word says. You know, you need to be
- 24:23Speaker 3: faithful to God. Amen. So we give daily challenges in
- 24:30Speaker 3: the podcast. Go on over to the life chat and
- 24:32Speaker 3: you can read and follow along and also we encourage
- 24:37Speaker 3: you with it's just a suggestion. These are topics that

- 33:17Speaker 3: same God who told Paul I am with you is
- 33:22Speaker 3: with us as well. Do not be afraid. This is
- 33:28Speaker 3: our remedy for fear. We need to speak. We need
- 33:35Speaker 3: to keep teaching the word like Paul did for eighteen months.
- 33:42Speaker 3: We need to continue to speak boldly for the Lord
- 33:49Speaker 3: and this generation we're in. I believe that we are
- 33:51Speaker 3: in the last days and we need to be bolder
- 33:55Speaker 3: more now than ever before. And so I just want
- 34:02Speaker 3: to pray with you before we close out. I know
- 34:06Speaker 3: how it can be dealing with fear, being intimidated, being shy,
- 34:13Speaker 3: not wanting to speak up or get involved. I get it,
- 34:17Speaker 3: Like I said that I had. I grew up in
- 34:20Speaker 3: an abusive home where my mom had a mental illness,
- 34:25Speaker 3: and she would be verbally and physically abusive to us,
- 34:29Speaker 3: and she would beat the brakes off of us. And
- 34:34Speaker 3: I get it.
- 34:35Speaker 2: I get it.
- 34:37Speaker 3: Used to be in terror of our own mother growing up.
- 34:42Speaker 3: But when I got saved and I received the Lord,
- 34:46Speaker 3: and I received the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit brought healing.
- 34:53Speaker 3: The Holy Spirit is able to heal you emotionally. Some
- 34:57Speaker 3: of you have tormenting thoughts of being is done to you,
- 35:00Speaker 3: things said to you because that you're fearful or afraid of,
- 35:04Speaker 3: and that's where the torment comes. And God wants us
- 35:07Speaker 3: to have a sound mind. Amen. So, first of all,
- 35:12Speaker 3: if you do not have a relationship with the Lord,
- 35:16Speaker 3: then you cannot comfort yourself with the fact that the
- 35:20Speaker 3: Lord is with you, because you first have to invite
- 35:24Speaker 3: them into your life. So if you're ready to receive
- 35:29Speaker 3: the Lord, to say this prayer with me. Evenly, Father,
- 35:33Speaker 3: I put my faith in my trust in the Lord Jesus,
- 35:39Speaker 3: I have sinned against you and against heaven, and I
- 35:43Speaker 3: ask that you forgive me. I am a sinner and
- 35:47Speaker 3: I deserve death, but I receive life through the gift
- 35:53Speaker 3: of your son, Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Jesus, I asked
- 35:58Speaker 3: you through the Holy Spirit to come into my heart,
- 36:01Speaker 3: to come into my life, and to be my lord
- 36:04Speaker 3: and master and my savior. Teach me how to walk
- 36:08Speaker 3: with you, how to love you, and how to obey you.
- 36:13Speaker 3: Wash me clean by your blood of all my sin
- 36:16Speaker 3: and and Nickolai, and I receive you. And man, now
- 36:20Speaker 3: say this prayer. Lord, I have been dealing with tormenting
- 36:25Speaker 3: fear all of my life. Take away these tormenting thoughts,
- 36:31Speaker 3: things done to me from my past, things people have said,
- 36:38Speaker 3: family members, friends, loved ones, people at school, people at work.
- 36:48Speaker 3: Stop these thoughts from tormenting me. And I give these
- 36:53Speaker 3: thoughts over to you. Wash my mind and my thought
- 36:57Speaker 3: life by the blood of Jesus, and receive a sound mind.
- 37:02Speaker 3: And I receive your promise that you are with me
- 37:07Speaker 3: and you will protect me. Therefore I will not fear.
- 37:14Speaker 3: I asked us in Jesus' nayme ainmen, and ain'tmen if
- 37:20Speaker 3: you said that prayer. We need you to post it
- 37:23Speaker 3: in the live chat. Let us know so that we
