- 0:15Speaker 2: then again, ain't He been good to you?
- 0:17Speaker 1: Two? Though?
- 0:17Speaker 2: I mean, really, man, think of all the blessings God
- 0:20Speaker 2: has given you. You know what, that's a good news today, though, y'all,
- 0:25Speaker 2: in the face of the world being the way it is,
- 0:28Speaker 2: the evilness that's out there, it just it just seems
- 0:31Speaker 2: like that's all that's on the news sometimes. You know,
- 0:34Speaker 2: we got we got news of parents not really standing
- 0:37Speaker 2: up being parents. We got news stories of children turning
- 0:40Speaker 2: on their parents. You got, you got everything the economy,
- 0:44Speaker 2: you got places you thought usuld be beautiful places to go.
- 0:48Speaker 2: Now they got travel alerts. It's just it's all over us.
- 0:51Speaker 2: It's it's all over. But the good news is there's
- 0:57Speaker 2: something that you can have in this relationship with God
- 1:02Speaker 2: that gives you a way to deal with it all.
- 1:06Speaker 2: And I'm not saying that it'll protect you from every
- 1:09Speaker 2: single thing out there that is happening, because some things
- 1:11Speaker 2: are going to happen to you. You're going to be
- 1:15Speaker 2: in an accident from time to time. You're going to
- 1:18Speaker 2: make a mistake and fall down from time to time.
- 1:21Speaker 2: But man, wouldn't it be incredible to you for you
- 1:25Speaker 2: if you understood that you had some insurance in all
- 1:28Speaker 2: of this, that no matter what happened to you, you
- 1:32Speaker 2: know you will covered. You know, look, insurance companies as
- 1:35Speaker 2: good as they are, you know, like our friends that
- 1:37Speaker 2: stay farm or any other insurance company. You know they do,
- 1:41Speaker 2: they do some amazing things. Insurance is a really really
- 1:44Speaker 2: good thing to happen in the event that something.
- 1:46Speaker 1: Happens to you.
- 1:48Speaker 2: You know, you may not want to pay the premium,
- 1:50Speaker 2: but guess what in the event that something happens to you,
- 1:53Speaker 2: that insurance is absolutely critical.
- 1:56Speaker 1: Well, but guess what they cover certain things.
- 1:59Speaker 2: You could get life insurance, you can get auto insurance,
- 2:02Speaker 2: you can get accident insurance, you can get health insurance.
- 2:07Speaker 2: There is nothing that you can buy to safeguard you
- 2:12Speaker 2: against life's decisions. You know, if you make a mistake,
- 2:17Speaker 2: if you cheat, if you lie, if you if you
- 2:22Speaker 2: fall down and you can't seem to get it together
- 2:26Speaker 2: and you make a crazy decision about how you're gonna
- 2:29Speaker 2: go about securing an income, there are there are no
- 2:32Speaker 2: policies you can buy for that.
- 2:34Speaker 1: You can't buy a policy if.
- 2:37Speaker 2: You stop being the man you're supposed to be, and
- 2:41Speaker 2: and and and give up on your children. You can't
- 2:44Speaker 2: buy a policy if something happens as a mother and
- 2:47Speaker 2: all of a sudden you're not the mother you're supposed
- 2:49Speaker 2: to be. But there is some insurance coverage out there
- 2:54Speaker 2: for you. And that relationship that you form with God,
- 2:58Speaker 2: that friendship that you form with him, that alliance, that
- 3:03Speaker 2: that partnership, that that prayer that you put in all
- 3:07Speaker 2: the time, there is an insurance policy that you have
- 3:12Speaker 2: taken out when you form a relationship with your heavenly Father,
- 3:16Speaker 2: when you form a friendship, when you form a bond
- 3:20Speaker 2: that protects you, that protects you when these things happen
- 3:25Speaker 2: in the event that they happen. Now here's the great
- 3:28Speaker 2: thing about prayer. Prayer can head off some stuff from happening.
- 3:33Speaker 2: It really really can. Prayer can prevent some things from happening.
- 3:37Speaker 2: You know, I'll give you an example in my life. Okay,
- 3:40Speaker 2: here we go, because see, see's the best way for
- 3:42Speaker 2: me to do it. Because see, what I don't like
- 3:44Speaker 2: to do is talk to people without letting them know, hey, look,
- 3:48Speaker 2: I'm in this hole with you.
- 3:49Speaker 1: I feel where yet? Okay, here we go.
- 3:53Speaker 2: I was making some decisions a few years ago because
- 3:58Speaker 2: what I thought I was doing was on balancing something
- 4:01Speaker 2: that was happening in my life. You know, I thought
- 4:04Speaker 2: that since I wasn't happy or well for whatever the
- 4:09Speaker 2: reason I thought I wasn't happy, if I, as wrong
- 4:13Speaker 2: as I am, wanted to blame somebody else from my unhappiness.
- 4:16Speaker 2: That's really if if I make a bad decision because
- 4:20Speaker 2: I'm thinking I'm unhappy with somebody, Holy pardon too. Wrongs
- 4:25Speaker 2: don't make it right, and I make a decision to
- 4:27Speaker 2: do something wrong, and now the consequences come when I
- 4:31Speaker 2: do something wrong. See then that I already know as
- 4:35Speaker 2: an intelligent thinking man, as most of you are, that
- 4:39Speaker 2: when you do something wrong, that you know there is
- 4:42Speaker 2: a consequence for that. I teach that to my sons.
- 4:45Speaker 2: When you do something wrong, there is a consequence. So
- 4:48Speaker 2: as an adult, I fully understood the consequence. And so
- 4:51Speaker 2: what I was doing was I was making some decisions
- 4:55Speaker 2: that was causing some consequences in my life that was
- 4:58Speaker 2: delaying my happiness, delaying my progress, causing my business not
- 5:03Speaker 2: to go the way it could go so forth and
- 5:06Speaker 2: so on. Well, what I started doing was I took
- 5:09Speaker 2: out this insurance policy called Prayer, and I started putting
- 5:13Speaker 2: it in my mix on a daily basis. And then
- 5:15Speaker 2: I started putting it in my mix, you know, two
- 5:17Speaker 2: three times a day. And then I found myself using
- 5:20Speaker 2: it all the time. And then I really started putting
- 5:23Speaker 2: it in when I didn't need any help, when I
- 5:26Speaker 2: wasn't in trouble, I started putting insurance in. I started
- 5:29Speaker 2: making deposits into the bank. I started paying my premiums down.
- 5:34Speaker 2: And Prayer is like a premium, you just pay into it.
- 5:37Speaker 2: Then when situations started coming up, now that Prayer that
- 5:43Speaker 2: I had put in that in those premiums I had
- 5:45Speaker 2: paid it started preventing me from making the decisions I
- 5:49Speaker 2: was making in the past. Thus I didn't have to
- 5:52Speaker 2: suffer the consequences. Thus my businesses didn't have to be
- 5:56Speaker 2: delayed in this progress because I had put some payments
- 6:00Speaker 2: on some premiums. I had taken out an insurance policy.
- 6:04Speaker 2: With my life, my real life. I'm talking about your
- 6:08Speaker 2: life where you make your day to day decisions in
- 6:10Speaker 2: I'm not talking about see life. Insurance is only good
- 6:13Speaker 2: if you die God has a policy that's available, that's
- 6:18Speaker 2: available for you.
- 6:19Speaker 1: Why are you living? See?
- 6:22Speaker 2: In order for an insurance policy to pay, something bad
- 6:25Speaker 2: got to happen.
- 6:27Speaker 1: Now.
- 6:27Speaker 2: There may be some others out there I don't know
- 6:29Speaker 2: nothing about, but all the ones I got my car insurance,
- 6:33Speaker 2: they only come into play if I have an accident.
- 6:36Speaker 2: I have an accident insurance policy where if something happens
- 6:39Speaker 2: to me, I got accident, I got, I got my
- 6:43Speaker 2: voice is covered in case something happened to that. I
- 6:45Speaker 2: got that, but I got to not be able to
- 6:47Speaker 2: talk to cash that one.
- 6:49Speaker 1: You understand everything. I got homeowner's insurance.
- 6:53Speaker 2: Don't nothing show up on my homeowner's insurance unless it's
- 6:58Speaker 2: a flood, a fire of something bad got to happen
- 7:02Speaker 2: for my insurance to even make sense. When you take
- 7:06Speaker 2: out the policy with your heavenly father, when you pay
- 7:10Speaker 2: the premiums of prayer, and that's all it costs. Man,
- 7:13Speaker 2: it ain't you. Ain't got to have no money for
- 7:15Speaker 2: this policy. I put into the policy. It pays me
- 7:21Speaker 2: dividends and benefits for living. Ain't nothing got to go
- 7:27Speaker 2: wrong for me to cash in on this policy.
- 7:31Speaker 1: I use this policy for good things.
- 7:35Speaker 2: I give you example, I use this policy to ask
- 7:39Speaker 2: God to watch over my family when I travel. Make
- 7:42Speaker 2: the decisions to pay your premiums in prayer, talk to
- 7:46Speaker 2: your heavenly Father, get you some insurance in your life,
- 7:49Speaker 2: and when you have little things like that, keep on stepping.
- 7:52Speaker 1: Man. God loves you.
- 7:53Speaker 2: Man, Man, I show hope you talk to God today
- 7:56Speaker 2: because guess what He shure would like to hear from you.
- 7:58Speaker 1: That's for sure. To the Steve Harvey Morning Show
