- 0:09Speaker 1: Lives the Headquarters Club. It's lost bagas Yo, yo yo,
- 0:34Speaker 1: what's up? What's up? What's going on? Everybody? Hey, it
- 0:38Speaker 1: feels like I haven't been on here forever. Man. I
- 0:42Speaker 1: am happy to be back. I'm getting strength in my
- 0:46Speaker 1: body again. Man. It was like a weird little bug
- 0:51Speaker 1: that was getting passed around at work. I noticed, actually
- 0:56Speaker 1: since Christmas, some people have been dealing with it. And
- 0:59Speaker 1: then it finally hit me. This is actually the second
- 1:02Speaker 1: time it's hit me. Uh, and I'm just about done
- 1:07Speaker 1: with it. I plead the blood of Jesus over it.
- 1:10Speaker 1: I finally had to go and break down and get
- 1:14Speaker 1: some medication because it started to disrupt my sleep. It
- 1:18Speaker 1: was kind of weird. It was like you know how
- 1:21Speaker 1: you lay down and you get ready to doze off,
- 1:24Speaker 1: you know, right into that sleep, it was like I
- 1:27Speaker 1: would get choked for some reason, just to sinuses and
- 1:32Speaker 1: and you know, just you know, I mean, I don't
- 1:34Speaker 1: want to gross nobody out, but you know, it was
- 1:37Speaker 1: just it's just where I never experienced that before. I
- 1:42Speaker 1: didn't know what was going on. I'm like, Lord, I
- 1:44Speaker 1: can't breathe. You know, this is weird. I really can't sleep,
- 1:48Speaker 1: So I told my wife to take me in and
- 1:51Speaker 1: get checked out and stuff and gave me some steroids
- 1:54Speaker 1: and you know, open up my airwaves. And I'm sleeping
- 1:58Speaker 1: good now and so and a lot of it's getting
- 2:01Speaker 1: cleared up. I'm still, you know, going through the process
- 2:06Speaker 1: of taking the medication, but I feel a lot better.
- 2:09Speaker 1: But I still believe in the healing power of my
- 2:13Speaker 1: Lord and Savior. Amen. So hallelujah. So I'm praying for
- 2:21Speaker 1: his hand to move and to clear this out. This
- 2:24Speaker 1: is just a distraction. And ask for you'll prayers, you know,
- 2:27Speaker 1: give me your prayers. Please couse your prayers, O God,
- 2:31Speaker 1: for our health and strength and you know, just our
- 2:36Speaker 1: bodies to be whole so that we could be used
- 2:39Speaker 1: by our Father and do his work until it's time
- 2:44Speaker 1: to get out of here. Amen. And so I want
- 2:47Speaker 1: to appreciate everyone who's been checking on me, everyone who's
- 2:50Speaker 1: been praying for me, especially big shout out to his
- 2:54Speaker 1: own three Man, Thank you for calling me and checking
- 2:57Speaker 1: on me, my brother and my brother Corinth, Thank y'all
- 3:02Speaker 1: for your support. And yeah, I'm feeling better. So yeah,
- 3:06Speaker 1: we got a whole new episode for you today. We're
- 3:11Speaker 1: going to be in the Book of Acts, Chapter fourteen,
- 3:16Speaker 1: a whole new chapter. Now, this is a ministry in Iconium, right,
- 3:23Speaker 1: and then this ministry continues over there, and Paul and
- 3:28Speaker 1: Silas were just rejected. Remember they went to Antioch, the
- 3:32Speaker 1: other Antioch, not the Antioch that we know, the famous
- 3:36Speaker 1: Antioch in the Bible, but this was another location called Antioch,
- 3:42Speaker 1: and the Jews stirred up the people. They re see rejection.
- 3:47Speaker 1: So we're gonna look at this and we're gonna see
- 3:52Speaker 1: how they navigated through this, so that you know, it
- 3:55Speaker 1: could be a blueprint for us, because I don't know
- 3:58Speaker 1: if you noticed or not, but the rejection is still
- 4:03Speaker 1: out here, you know what I mean. So let's go.
- 4:10Speaker 1: Before I heave any Father in prayer, have a Father,
- 4:15Speaker 1: We just asked that you will move on today. We
- 4:20Speaker 1: ask Father God, that you, your grace and your mercy,
- 4:23Speaker 1: Father God, will just be poured out on today. We asked,
- 4:29Speaker 1: Father God, that you, Father God, will lead us and
- 4:33Speaker 1: guide us. So God, that we will get the rain
- 4:35Speaker 1: of word spoken directly from you, Father God, that every
- 4:39Speaker 1: year that will hear this podcast will be blessed and
- 4:42Speaker 1: will be touched, that lives will be changed forever. Oh God,
- 4:46Speaker 1: that the captives will be set free. Father, we asked
- 4:49Speaker 1: this in Jesus' name. Ain't man, It ain't man. Hallelujah, Man,
- 5:00Speaker 1: this is gonna be a good one today because I
- 5:05Speaker 1: believe we're going to dig into some deep topics today.
- 5:16Speaker 1: You know what I mean. So, as I just said,
- 5:22Speaker 1: Paul and Barnabas was just forced out of Antioch. Yet
- 5:26Speaker 1: the mission did not stop. It kept moving forward. Now
- 5:30Speaker 1: today we arrive in the new city like Kunium, and
- 5:35Speaker 1: what we see again is the Gospel preach. We see
- 5:41Speaker 1: the people that will receive and believe the Word. Then
- 5:45Speaker 1: we also see the opposition that rises. But God still
- 5:50Speaker 1: moves in the midst of it. So we're gonna take
- 5:53Speaker 1: it verse by verse. Like I said, We're not gonna
- 5:55Speaker 1: rush through this chapter. We're gonna take our time. Mamen.
- 6:00Speaker 1: So I'm coming at you from the New King James.
- 6:04Speaker 1: Verse when it says in verse fourteen, now it happened
- 6:09Speaker 1: in like Konium, that they went together to the synagogue
- 6:13Speaker 1: to the Jews, and so spoke that a great multitude,
- 6:17Speaker 1: both of the Jews and of the Gentiles believed. Hallelujah.
- 6:24Speaker 1: Now that is a beautiful work of God. You have
- 6:28Speaker 1: to be anointed. Now, keep in mind, Beloved, before this time,
- 6:35Speaker 1: people were not used to this type of teaching. Before
- 6:39Speaker 1: this happened, these men were not anointed to the degree
- 6:45Speaker 1: that the apostles are. They did not see signs, miracles,
- 6:50Speaker 1: and wonders to the degree that the apostles performed in
- 6:55Speaker 1: front of them. So just imagine this. This is a
- 6:59Speaker 1: whole new teaching, a whole new doctrine to where the
- 7:01Speaker 1: whole city is showing up to hear it, and not
- 7:05Speaker 1: only to hear it, but to demonstrate God's power and
- 7:10Speaker 1: man to allow God's power to be demonstrated before them.
- 7:15Speaker 1: This was major revival. This was no small thing. This
- 7:18Speaker 1: was huge. Beloved. Now, they first go to the synagogue,
- 7:26Speaker 1: which is Paul's practice and which was it's appropriate right,
- 7:30Speaker 1: because the Gospel is first to the jew then it
- 7:34Speaker 1: comes over to the Gentiles. God is a god of order.
- 7:38Speaker 1: If you look at the Jews as the elder brother
- 7:41Speaker 1: of our family, right, he is the first born. The
- 7:44Speaker 1: Jewish people have that first born position in the family.
- 7:48Speaker 1: But this is a human family, right, this is God's family. Hallelujah.
- 7:56Speaker 1: So they preach to the God fearing Gentiles, and they
- 8:02Speaker 1: preach to the Jews, and the Gospel spreads outward and
- 8:07Speaker 1: again both Jews and Greeks believe, proving that salvation is
- 8:14Speaker 1: for all people. Amen. God has a heart for all people.
- 8:20Speaker 1: There is no racism with God. I mean he created
- 8:24Speaker 1: all of us, right, He created all the colors. The
- 8:28Speaker 1: only distinction that God makes is the righteous versus the wicked? Right?
- 8:34Speaker 1: Are you a child of the devil or are you
- 8:38Speaker 1: a child of God? What family do you belong to? Amen?
- 8:45Speaker 1: And it's amazing that God gives us free will so
- 8:49Speaker 1: that we have the power to choose which family we
- 8:53Speaker 1: want to belong to. Amen. It's not like when you
- 8:59Speaker 1: know us being into a family and so we have
- 9:01Speaker 1: no choice who were related to. But being related to
- 9:05Speaker 1: someone doesn't necessarily make you family. Loyalty, love and all
- 9:12Speaker 1: that stuff makes family not necessarily just be in blood related. Hallelujah. Now,
- 9:22Speaker 1: notice something important. They didn't quit after they got rejected.
- 9:33Speaker 1: They didn't say, well, ministry is way too hard, I'm done,
- 9:37Speaker 1: this is difficult, and beloved I am a blood would
- 9:44Speaker 1: be transparent and say that I've been to that point.
- 9:48Speaker 1: When I first started our ministry club his Hout Las Vegas,
- 9:51Speaker 1: I thought people would be clapping and cheering us on.
- 9:54Speaker 1: You know, first of all, they don't know the type
- 9:57Speaker 1: of lifestyle that I used to live before I got saved.
- 10:02Speaker 1: I was a womanizer, I was addicted to pornography. I
- 10:08Speaker 1: was very immoral, a broken person. I come from a
- 10:12Speaker 1: broken family. Yet God chose to use me. And here
- 10:17Speaker 1: I am living, holy, living clean, clean my life up
- 10:21Speaker 1: and now I'm here to encourage the next generation to
- 10:26Speaker 1: live their life give a life to the Lord. Whatever
- 10:28Speaker 1: they inspired to doing life, whether it's college or whatever,
- 10:33Speaker 1: maybe include God. You know, allow God to use in
- 10:39Speaker 1: and do God's will. You know God's purpose. That's the
- 10:44Speaker 1: only way you will truly be fulfilled in life. And
- 10:48Speaker 1: that was our message. But we were met. I was
- 10:52Speaker 1: met with so much opposition. I thought people would be
- 10:55Speaker 1: loving the Lord, people would be honest, they wouldn't steal,
- 10:57Speaker 1: they wouldn't do all this stuff. Boy, it was I naive.
- 11:01Speaker 1: And I got to the point to say this is
- 11:04Speaker 1: too hard, Like I would never go into a ministry
- 11:09Speaker 1: that God did not call me to, Like, why would
- 11:13Speaker 1: you want that headache for yourself? Why would you take
- 11:16Speaker 1: that warfare for yourself and your hell? To a stricter
- 11:20Speaker 1: accountability if God didn't call you to do this, I
- 11:23Speaker 1: wouldn't even play with it. Amen. And they simply moved
- 11:29Speaker 1: to the next city, and they just kept preaching. They
- 11:32Speaker 1: didn't say this was too hard. I'm just gonna go
- 11:34Speaker 1: to the next spot. I'm gonna go to those who
- 11:37Speaker 1: are open and guess what a great multitude believe. So
- 11:43Speaker 1: sometimes your breakthrough happens right after your rejection. Let me
- 11:47Speaker 1: say that again. Sometimes your greatest breakthrough happens right after
- 11:53Speaker 1: your rejection. Amen. I even have a story about in
- 12:00Speaker 1: our ministry. I was a little discouraged. Some of the
- 12:04Speaker 1: local artists had decided to not support. There was one
- 12:08Speaker 1: particular sister that kind of had me bummed out a
- 12:11Speaker 1: little bit with the club. I don't know what it was,
- 12:17Speaker 1: but like right in that season, there was an artist
- 12:24Speaker 1: that was hitting me up that wanted to come. They
- 12:27Speaker 1: wanted to come to club, his hop and you know,
- 12:29Speaker 1: book to night, have a night out here at the club.
- 12:33Speaker 1: But I was like so discouraged, I didn't even like
- 12:37Speaker 1: return his call. He would hitting me up tough, but
- 12:41Speaker 1: he stayed persistent and it wasn't that like I was
- 12:46Speaker 1: trying to avoid him, And it wasn't that I was
- 12:49Speaker 1: trying to hate him or nothing. I was just going
- 12:51Speaker 1: through a season myself of discouragement. And so finally when
- 12:57Speaker 1: I find out who he was, this.
- 12:58Speaker 2: Guy is actually.
- 13:01Speaker 1: As a pretty big name in the industry. He's coming
- 13:04Speaker 1: from the secular world, and uh, we finally connected, but
- 13:10Speaker 1: things didn't really we didn't connect all the way. So
- 13:13Speaker 1: he did not end up coming to club his hob.
- 13:16Speaker 1: He wanted to be on one of our shows, but
- 13:20Speaker 1: it happened to where we didn't. All of a sudden,
- 13:22Speaker 1: the relationship kind of went south. You know. Now, imagine
- 13:27Speaker 1: if I didn't allow myself to be discouraged, Imagine if
- 13:31Speaker 1: I just did like they did. Like you know what,
- 13:33Speaker 1: if they don't want to minister, here's somebody else who does.
- 13:38Speaker 1: And man, he could have brought a lot of attention
- 13:42Speaker 1: to the venue. But at the same time, it wasn't
- 13:47Speaker 1: Guy's will, or maybe it wasn't.
- 13:49Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 13:51Speaker 1: If God wanted it to happen, it happened, because sometimes
- 13:55Speaker 1: people from the industry they could be plants by the
- 13:58Speaker 1: enemy as well. I believe that may have been God's
- 14:01Speaker 1: protection as well. I mean, I don't know.
- 14:05Speaker 2: I guess the Lord will let me know on that day.
- 14:09Speaker 1: But I did eventually apologize and you know, try to
- 14:14Speaker 1: clean up my side of the street because I'm not
- 14:16Speaker 1: perfect at all, and it just seems like, you know,
- 14:22Speaker 1: he is really no longer interested to pursue any type
- 14:26Speaker 1: of endeavor together. But you know, we put it in
- 14:30Speaker 1: God's hands. But that's just an example of Hey, they
- 14:34Speaker 1: went to the next city, they kept going, and I
- 14:37Speaker 1: ended up getting discouraged. So I believe I lost out
- 14:41Speaker 1: on an opportunity that would have been great for our community.
- 14:47Speaker 2: The man verse two.
- 14:49Speaker 1: But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoning
- 14:53Speaker 1: their minds against the brethren. Beloved, be careful when somebody
- 15:00Speaker 1: wants to come to you and poison your mind. Be
- 15:04Speaker 1: careful of gossip and backbite. Right if somebody will talk
- 15:09Speaker 1: about somebody else to you, trusting me, they'll talk to
- 15:11Speaker 1: you to somebody else. They'll talk about you to somebody else. Now,
- 15:18Speaker 1: when truth cannot be defeated, people will try to damage
- 15:23Speaker 1: your reputation, they'll go after you. Now, notice the tactic
- 15:30Speaker 1: they poison the minds of the people. They didn't debate it,
- 15:35Speaker 1: they didn't discuss it with it. They straight up manipulated
- 15:38Speaker 1: the people, and this still happens today. Manipulation is a
- 15:44Speaker 1: form of witchcraft. Sometimes people reject truth and then they
- 15:49Speaker 1: try to turn others against it as well. It's not
- 15:53Speaker 1: enough for them to reject the truth, but they don't
- 15:56Speaker 1: want others to receive the truth. That is so dominic.
- 16:01Speaker 1: But watch what Paul and barnafas. Watch their response in
- 16:05Speaker 1: the midst of this, Amen, remember guard your mind. The
- 16:12Speaker 1: battlefield is in the mind. We got to cast out
- 16:15Speaker 1: thoughts and imaginations and definitely don't allow other people to
- 16:19Speaker 1: plant filing wicked thoughts in your head. Amen, Verse three,
- 16:27Speaker 1: chapter fourteen. Therefore they stayed there a long time, spreading boldly,
- 16:35Speaker 1: I mean speaking boldly in the Lord who is bearing
- 16:39Speaker 1: witness to the word of his grace, granting signs and
- 16:44Speaker 1: wonders to be done by their hands. Hallelujah, thank you Lord.
- 16:51Speaker 4: Man.
- 16:52Speaker 1: Just notice the Lord granted signs and wonders. He allowed
- 16:57Speaker 1: signs and wonders to be done by the hands of
- 17:00Speaker 1: the apostles. Amen. Now that's the type of ministry I
- 17:04Speaker 1: want that I seek for.
- 17:06Speaker 4: Lord.
- 17:07Speaker 1: We asked that you will grant signs and wonders and
- 17:10Speaker 1: all that we do touch all those who are listening
- 17:15Speaker 1: that you want to use in ministry, Lord to listen.
- 17:18Speaker 1: Position that signs and wonders will be granted unto us,
- 17:23Speaker 1: so that Jesus name Amen. Now our position didn't drive
- 17:29Speaker 1: them away immediately. They stayed and they preached boldly, and
- 17:36Speaker 1: God confirmed the message through the miracles. Now look at
- 17:42Speaker 1: their courage blove it. Instead of running from that position,
- 17:46Speaker 1: they stayed longer. This is how they responded to it.
- 17:50Speaker 1: They preach even bolder right, and God backed up their
- 17:55Speaker 1: words with power. Where is the power in the church today, beloved,
- 18:02Speaker 1: Where is the power that belongs to the believers. We
- 18:08Speaker 1: need this power, especially in these last days. Hallelujah. Now
- 18:13Speaker 1: here's the lesson. Our position isn't always a sign to leave.
- 18:20Speaker 1: That doesn't mean we have to go. We have to
- 18:22Speaker 1: run for the heels. Sometimes it's a sign to stand firm,
- 18:28Speaker 1: stand right where you are, write ten toes down. Hey man,
- 18:34Speaker 1: we have to get bolder. We have to go harder
- 18:37Speaker 1: than the mist. Now, the Gospel keeps moving even when
- 18:42Speaker 1: resistance shows up, rejection in one city, but revival in another.
- 18:51Speaker 1: Faithfulness matters more than our comfort. Let me say this again,
- 18:59Speaker 1: Faithfulness matters way more than our comfort. You can't look
- 19:07Speaker 1: for comfortable ministry. I know we all want to go
- 19:11Speaker 1: where everybody celebrates us. We don't want to be around
- 19:15Speaker 1: those who just tolerate us, right, We want to be celebrated.
- 19:19Speaker 1: But that's not always the case. Being a child of God,
- 19:23Speaker 1: sometimes you have to stay where you're not wanting to
- 19:27Speaker 1: go even harder. This can only be done by the
- 19:31Speaker 1: spirit and by God's grace. Amen. All right, y'all, let's
- 19:36Speaker 1: take a quick break.
- 19:38Speaker 3: You are listening to the light of Las Vegas. This
- 19:42Speaker 3: is the hiss hop radio show.
- 19:47Speaker 4: For your fake. That for your fake, that for your fate,
- 19:54Speaker 4: for your faith, that just praying. That's how I go
- 19:57Speaker 4: about it. So much faith, I think I already got
- 20:00Speaker 4: I wait on Jesus, but he ain't gotta find it.
- 20:02Speaker 4: He moved quick as a cheetah because he already spotted
- 20:05Speaker 4: all in. Take is a dad when trying to seek
- 20:06Speaker 4: his case. Gotta get in the lab, make them the
- 20:09Speaker 4: secret place. You don't take out the trash, then that'll
- 20:11Speaker 4: be a waste. Confessing this in the past. Watch I
- 20:13Speaker 4: would get em races.
- 20:14Speaker 3: Believe it.
- 20:15Speaker 4: You can achieve it if you don't skate back plant
- 20:17Speaker 4: to see them, just leave it. Why would you make
- 20:19Speaker 4: back your heart to giant? You can't fake that. You
- 20:22Speaker 4: got the heart of a lion. Or where your faith?
- 20:23Speaker 1: That faith?
- 20:25Speaker 4: Where your fake? That thing where your fake? That where

- 20:32Speaker 4: Where your faith? That where your faith? That where your faith?
- 20:38Speaker 4: That where your fate? That faith?
- 20:42Speaker 2: Where's that? Though?
- 20:43Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 20:44Speaker 1: Where is that?
- 20:44Speaker 4: Where your faith is?
- 20:45Speaker 3: Child life?
- 20:46Speaker 4: Keep my fate strong as a fragrance Christ like all
- 20:48Speaker 4: white linen like I'm racist, so to speak, my mouth covered.
- 20:51Speaker 4: I got racist, open the Bible and got a grace pack.
- 20:55Speaker 4: My salvation is vital. I gotta chase that made it
- 20:58Speaker 4: through all them trials. I had to take that. You
- 21:00Speaker 4: got the heart of alliance? Or where your faith? That
- 21:03Speaker 4: where your faith? That where your fake? That for your fate?
- 21:09Speaker 4: That where your fake? That where your fate? That where
- 21:16Speaker 4: your faith? That where your fate? That where's that? Though
- 21:22Speaker 4: God gave me the spark, he had to light it up,
- 21:24Speaker 4: had a hole in my heart like they had shot
- 21:26Speaker 4: it up. Not a spirit gonna mean high like it
- 21:28Speaker 4: might be rough. That's why I feel like rot when
- 21:30Speaker 4: I power up. I don't know, but the nim I
- 21:32Speaker 4: gotta claim that if you're feeling in denial. You not
- 21:35Speaker 4: awake yet, no matter what, Keep trying until you taste
- 21:38Speaker 4: that you got the heart of alliance, or where your faith,

- 22:00Speaker 4: I know where I should lean Whenever I'm in havoc,
- 22:02Speaker 4: Grace came in and cleaned me. I ain't even felt it.
- 22:05Speaker 4: I don't chase no green. I don't know Saint Patcher.
- 22:07Speaker 4: I ain't chasing no green unless I defend the Celtics.
- 22:09Speaker 4: No chasing Tatum, no idols, because God hates that. When
- 22:12Speaker 4: I opened the Bible list when I made Rexy. If
- 22:14Speaker 4: you see getting, you'll find out where his face sat.
- 22:17Speaker 4: You got the heart of a lions, or where your fate,
- 22:19Speaker 4: That where your fate, That where your fate, That where
- 22:25Speaker 4: your fate, That where your faith, That where your fate,
- 22:31Speaker 4: That where your fate, that where your fate, That.
- 22:37Speaker 1: Where's that door?
- 22:52Speaker 3: You are listening to the light of Las Vegas, this
- 22:56Speaker 3: this heart radio show.
- 23:15Speaker 1: All right, all right, we are back from the break
- 23:18Speaker 1: that was our brother, here in delight with where your
- 23:21Speaker 1: faith acts. Amen songs is very appropriate for the topic today.
- 23:28Speaker 1: We're talking about opposition, and we see opposition throughout the
- 23:36Speaker 1: entire story, Like I don't know. You can't look nowhere
- 23:42Speaker 1: in the Bible and not run into some opposition, right, Amen.
- 23:49Speaker 1: It could make you or it could break you. And
- 23:53Speaker 1: I believe God wants to make us stronger in the
- 23:58Speaker 1: midst of the spiritual war we're in Man.
- 24:02Speaker 2: Salelujah.
- 24:04Speaker 1: Sometimes we gotta just be bolder, we gotta stay on
- 24:10Speaker 1: the grind. Now it's time for our accountability partner segment.
- 24:18Speaker 1: The accountability partner is to help us stay on the
- 24:21Speaker 1: narrow path. There is a lot of us who started
- 24:26Speaker 1: this journey and started this walk in this relationship with God.
- 24:30Speaker 1: And it's important that not only that we know about him,
- 24:35Speaker 1: that we learn about him now we understand biblical truth,
- 24:40Speaker 1: but the important thing is that He knows us.
- 24:45Speaker 4: Now.
- 24:45Speaker 1: Remember it says in the Bible, I never knew you.
- 24:50Speaker 1: I believe this was but John twenty seven or Matthew
- 24:54Speaker 1: chapter twenty five or twenty seven, where people will say
- 24:58Speaker 1: that I've done many wonderful works, works in your name,
- 25:02Speaker 1: cast out demons in your name, And the Lord says
- 25:04Speaker 1: I never knew you, right, and so how is he
- 25:09Speaker 1: gonna know us? I mean, we can know of him,
- 25:14Speaker 1: but do we truly know him? Is going to take time,
- 25:19Speaker 1: spend time together with him in prayer, spend time in
- 25:22Speaker 1: his word, interacting in prayer. That's why the Book of
- 25:28Speaker 1: Act says you have to be filled with faith and
- 25:30Speaker 1: with the Holy Spirit. These men who both had the faith,
- 25:34Speaker 1: which is the Word of God, and the Holy Spirit,
- 25:38Speaker 1: which speaks of their prayer life. Because the Spirit has
- 25:43Speaker 1: to be invited. You need to invite the Holy Spirit
- 25:47Speaker 1: into every area of our lives. Holy Spirit is a gentleman.
- 25:51Speaker 1: He's just not going to force his way. So through
- 25:54Speaker 1: prayer we ask him, O, Lord, be with us on
- 25:56Speaker 1: our job, be with us at our school, be with
- 25:59Speaker 1: me in the car today, be with me everywhere I go.
- 26:03Speaker 1: And as you develop a relationship and yield to the
- 26:06Speaker 1: Holy Spirit, that's where he begins to know us. Amen,
- 26:13Speaker 1: he begins to change us. It's not about rules, keeping
- 26:16Speaker 1: rules and regulations. It's about relationship with him. And so
- 26:23Speaker 1: a lot of us go to church. There's pastors preaching
- 26:26Speaker 1: or addicted the poor. There's people who are in our
- 26:30Speaker 1: you know, worship team, our choirs. You know they're living
- 26:35Speaker 1: contradictory lifestyles, and that's because no one is in their
- 26:40Speaker 1: life to hold them accountable. No one can correct them,
- 26:42Speaker 1: no one can speak the word, no one can pray
- 26:45Speaker 1: for them. Sometimes you need agreement in prayer. So beloved,
- 26:50Speaker 1: if you want to make it and you want this
- 26:52Speaker 1: aspect of your life to be addressed, we welcome you
- 26:58Speaker 1: to our accountability partners. Say stay on that narrow path,
- 27:02Speaker 1: don't go to that broad path. We got to keep
- 27:04Speaker 1: the standard, right, Amen, talk to your pastor your brothers
- 27:09Speaker 1: or sisters and church or family member that is truly
- 27:12Speaker 1: living for the Lord and ask them to mentor you
- 27:16Speaker 1: ask them to hold you accountable.
- 27:18Speaker 2: This is all a part of it. And then.

- 32:37Speaker 1: It's a popular game right now on the app, and
- 32:41Speaker 1: also a scripture memory game. So especially if you have
- 32:45Speaker 1: youth and children and young adults, this is a great
- 32:48Speaker 1: way to help them memorize scripture. So hit them up
- 32:53Speaker 1: on that. You know, we do more than just play
- 32:55Speaker 1: music on the app. There's a lot that we do,
- 32:59Speaker 1: and there's a Bible there. So if you want to
- 33:01Speaker 1: just you know, quickly look up a scripture or something,
- 33:06Speaker 1: you can do it right here on the His Hot
- 33:09Speaker 1: Radio app. That's but not least we will let you
- 33:16Speaker 1: know that His Hot Radio is a five oh one
- 33:19Speaker 1: c three a nonprofit organization. We are looking to relaunch
- 33:24Speaker 1: or we open Club His Hot laws Vegas. If you
- 33:27Speaker 1: know about our ministry, we opened up a Christian club
- 33:30Speaker 1: in twenty.
- 33:31Speaker 2: Twelve, a five thousand square foot warehouse.
- 33:34Speaker 1: We decked it out into a venue and we had
- 33:38Speaker 1: Sweet Ministry there for about seven years amen, and so
- 33:46Speaker 1: we had to move out because of some circumstances and situations,
- 33:50Speaker 1: and you know I'll be transparent compromised on my part
- 33:53Speaker 1: as well.
- 33:55Speaker 2: But the Lord God is a restorer.
- 33:57Speaker 1: If you'd like to help us to open up a
- 34:00Speaker 1: new location, it's all tax deductible. If you would donate,
- 34:05Speaker 1: you can write it off and can do it on
- 34:07Speaker 1: our website, his hot Nation dot com, or on the app,
- 34:10Speaker 1: his hot radio on all platforms. And uh, that would
- 34:15Speaker 1: be a great way to bless this ministry. And now
- 34:22Speaker 1: this is my time, beloved, as we close it out.
- 34:24Speaker 1: This is my closing challenge today. When the resistance comes,
- 34:32Speaker 1: don't assume that God left the scene right, don't assume
- 34:35Speaker 1: that you're out of Guy's will. Sometimes resistance means God
- 34:41Speaker 1: is working. You know, my pastor told me years ago
- 34:48Speaker 1: that Satan will not kick a dead dog, So that
- 34:52Speaker 1: means that you are a threat. So just stay faithful
- 34:59Speaker 1: that resists since was made to make you stronger. So
- 35:03Speaker 1: let's pray, Lord, give us courage to remain faithful even
- 35:07Speaker 1: when opposition arises.
- 35:11Speaker 2: Help us trust.
- 35:12Speaker 1: You in every city, in every season in Jesus' name. Amen. Now,
- 35:26Speaker 1: in the next episode, we're gonna see division increase, and
- 35:31Speaker 1: Paul and Barnabas must make another tough move as the
- 35:37Speaker 1: ministry continues. So stay in the word, stay in prayer,
- 35:44Speaker 1: stay on your mission, and remember, beloved, it's not about us,
- 35:51Speaker 1: It's all about the Christ in us. We'll see you
- 35:53Speaker 1: on the next episode.
- 36:09Speaker 3: M you are listening to the light of Las Vegas.
- 36:14Speaker 3: This is the HISI Hop radio show
- 36:19Speaker 4: H
