• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Alright, coming to you live from Longwood, Florida. This is
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: the Ember Show, your host, Ember. First and foremost, let's
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: jump into prayer. Lord, Father, that art's in heaven, I
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: come to you in prayer to be able to have
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit be able to speak through this mic
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: and go through the listeners' ears and be able to
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: reach their hearts and minds and be able to apply
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: these verses to their lives.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: In the Lord Jesus Christ's name I pray. Amen.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: So I want to go ahead and mention that we
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: will be in Proverbs... chapter 22, verse 6, if you
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: would like to grab your Bibles or get on your
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: Bible app and read along as you hear along. Highly encourage.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: And like I've stated, I jump into prayer before every
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: episode really begins because I want the Holy Spirit to
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: have the floor. Now that does not necessarily mean that
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: my spirit won't intertwine and say some things.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: I want to.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Just allow you, the listener, to as well soak this
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: in and not have distractions. So I highly encourage to
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: not multitask throughout these next 15 minutes, less than 15 minutes.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: So let's jump into it.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Proverbs chapter 22, verse 6 states, and then we're going
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: to jump into a little bit of more Proverbs chapter
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: 22 and see what else the Spirit wants to tell
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: us through the Spirit.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Of the Word of God. Amen? So let's jump into it.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Proverbs chapter 22, verse 6 states, the verse of the day,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: if you teach children the right way to live, they
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: will not forget it when they are older.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Now, we understand as growing up, right? We're taught by
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: our parents. This is referring to a parable. In a sense.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Now I'm going to break it down. That. When we
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: first start. Having that relationship with Jesus Christ. It's. Beginning.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Like an infant. Coming into this world. And learning. What
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: it's really all about. To not only just. Believe in
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Jesus Christ. But also follow Jesus Christ.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Which are two different things. And I've had episodes where
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: I've explained that. And I can get into more of
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: that later. But I want to stay in Proverbs chapter
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: 22 and see what else the Word is really trying to.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Show us.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Because the Word is written by godly people that were apostles,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: that were eyewitnesses, that were followers of Jesus Christ. So
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: having that Be the main foundation. Realizing that it's not
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: all about the. The gospel of John. The gospel of Ruth.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: The gospel of Mark. It's the Holy Spirit. I want
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: to make that clear. And verse 23 goes into stating that.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: The Lord will speak on their behalf. He will punish
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: anyone who cheats them. Do not become a friend of
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: angry people. Keep away from them. You might become angry
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: like them. Then you would spoil your whole life. It
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: does not necessarily matter how good of a personality you have.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: How good character. Bad company corrupts good character. If you
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: have not heard that saying before. I'll repeat it again.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Bad company corrupts good character. Good character.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: Character does not over-trump bad company. Because we're talking about vibrations.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: We're talking about.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Frequencies.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: When we're speaking in a negative or positive way, we
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: are giving out a vibration. No matter how good you
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: may even come into a situation, a positive situation, if
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: you're in an environment that is very negative fueled and
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: the level of vibration is negative you're going to feel
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: that and it's going to possibly rub off on you
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: actually more than likely it will now you get around
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: people that are good vibration that are positive that are
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: of the spirit that's why it's very crucial to be
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: around like-minded people see how I said like-minded people Not
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: the same color. Not the same political background. Not the
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: same church even. So when we get deeper into this.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: And allowing the spirit to really. Break down the verse.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: And as we continue to go through the verse of
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: the day. Through verse 22 in Proverbs.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: And. When we really look at.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Verse 22, see, we're even a little bit off, because
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: that was not the verse of the day, but see
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: how spirit kind of just takes over, that's Proverbs chapter 22,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: chapter 22, verse 6, and like it stated, I went
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: all the way to 22, so it's the part that
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: really stands out to me when we're talking about being
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: around like-minded people it's so easy to still be deceived
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: in that way as well not everybody in your life
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: comes to really enrich your life So when we're talking
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: about if you teach children the right way to live,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: they will forget it. They will not forget it when
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: they are older. How many of us have forgotten it?
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: We have gotten sidetracked, distracted, influenced.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: We have strayed from.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: The ways we were brought up and taught. When our
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: parents were, whether they were strict or whether they were carefree,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: they had wisdom. Whether they were providers, whether they were
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: great parents, good parents, either way, your parents are your parents.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: And that's what we have to realize, that we are
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: children of God when we come to God. If anything,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: I'm 22 years old, but I'm a 37-year-old. But we're
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: talking about in the spiritual aspect of following God. Now,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: just because I followed God for 20 years, that does
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: not mean that I was not astray. I was not
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: distracted by my own blood, by my own perspective, my
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: own perception. So as we go deeper into.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: This verse, wherever you really started in your relationship with
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Jesus Christ to now, that's really how kind of old
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: you really are. And allowing yourself to have that childlike
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: spirit and be able to use it correctly. Finding that balance.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Indulging in anything too much is addiction. There's some people
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: that go to church that are addicted to church. They're
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: not necessarily addicted to the Bible. They're not addicted to prayer.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: And we could use those other aspects as well. Some
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: people are really addicted to the Bible. Some people are
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: really addicted to prayer. Some people are really addicted to praise.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: What I've learned in my following of Jesus Christ.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: Truly following.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: All those other things besides prayer really enrich my faith.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: But from my experience, where I have been able to
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: obtain the most, whether it is peace, joy, freedom, we
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: can keep going down the list, is through prayer and meditations.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: And meditation, like a sermon even tonight, it was stated
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: as prayer and meditation. You don't necessarily have to close
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: your eyes. It doesn't have to be something where you're
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: on your knees. It does not say that in the Bible.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: These things are great illustrations of showing honor to God.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong. But you come as you are.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Come as you are. You don't have to be something
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: that you're not. Let God mold you into something that
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: you are not.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Right now. In the future. Things will make sense. The
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Ember Show is growing. In the past... See, this is
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: kind of where I take lead.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: In the past week, there has been over 40 downloads.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: And to some people, that might not be a lot,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: but for somebody that's up and rising, downloads are different
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: than plays. I might not necessarily get the count for
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: all the plays, but the downloads is what I really
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: like to see is because People will listen to them
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: later on. And you can listen to them more than once.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: It's not just one play. So that's very beautiful to
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: see that that continues to grow. As I continue to
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: follow Christ, but also start my own ministry like Christ.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: Having the Holy Spirit. This is why you'll have a
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: lot of haters around.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: When you start really doing God's will because you're more
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: becoming like Jesus and the Holy Spirit and not everybody
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: inherits that because they don't put the work in. Whether
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: it's pray, whether it's praise, whether it's worship. I mean, praise, worship,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: same thing, but reading the word as well, the threes.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: Three is a very powerful number when it comes to God.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: The Holy Trinity, for example.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: But I got three minutes.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Hmm.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: And I want to also.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Kind of unwind. It's been a really, really great day. Emotionally, mentally, physically,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: I was able to play basketball and kind of readjust
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: and reevaluate things when somebody is eliminated from your life
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: and they're no longer a part of your routine. I'm
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: on day three of no contact to the ex, and
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: it's bittersweet. I know that by day 15, I will
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: be a lot more better off. I know that now
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: she may be feeling or has felt the superior of
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: leaving the relationship and the power, right? Like, oh, I'm
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: not going to get into what she may think, but
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: I respect her as a human being. Even though I've
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: said some ugly things, she's said some ugly things. We've
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: broken up and gotten back together. I really truly believe
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: that if it is meant to be that we'll meet
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: in person at the right time, I don't necessarily believe
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: that we should be in a long distance relationship. We've
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: obviously both have too much expectations or whatever the case
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: may be. So I let go and I let God
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: because in the beginning it's hard for me to let go.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: I'm not good at goodbyes. Whether it's with relationships, people, places, things.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: I'm an addict. I latch on.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: And I'm learning that the transition of me changing, I'm
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: being more honest with myself. So I'm leaving this time
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: to kind of leave the door open. Or actually more
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: like it's unlocked. There's no reason to lock it. I'm
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: not afraid of somebody. I'm not locking someone out.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: That door is shut.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: I do appreciate. The people that have been a part
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: of my life. Even when I wasn't right. I'll never
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: be perfect. But I want to be great. And there
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: is a difference. I got less than a minute. Thank
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: you for pressing play. This is the Ember Show. Your
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: host Ember. Mark be extremely ready or extraordinary ready. And
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: I'm so grateful to be able to share my faith
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: and not be ashamed. The gospel of Jesus Christ has
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: not only saved my life, it has given me a
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: foundation to build my life on.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: And with that being said, I will be checking out.
