- 0:01Speaker 1: Alright, coming to you live from Castleberry, Florida. This is
- 0:04Speaker 1: the Ember Show. Your host, Ember. On the go.
- 0:08Speaker 2: First and foremost, let's get into prayer. Lord Father, that
- 0:11Speaker 2: arts in heaven have come to you in prayer to
- 0:13Speaker 2: be able to have the Holy Spirit be able to
- 0:15Speaker 2: speak through this mic and go through the listeners' ears
- 0:18Speaker 2: and be able to reach their hearts and minds and
- 0:20Speaker 2: be able to apply these verses to their lives. And
- 0:23Speaker 2: in Lord Jesus Christ's name I pray.
- 0:25Speaker 1: Amen.
- 0:26Speaker 2: So, we're going to do verse of the day again.
- 0:30Speaker 2: And we're going to let the Spirit just do its thing.
- 0:34Speaker 2: And that's the beauty of Bible study is being able to,
- 0:40Speaker 2: whether you're doing it individually or you're doing it as
- 0:43Speaker 2: a group, you're not alone. And the physical part is
- 0:52Speaker 2: definitely separate from the spiritual part. And when you combine
- 0:56Speaker 2: those two, And you're getting yourself out of yourself and
- 1:03Speaker 2: allowing the Holy Spirit in.
- 1:04Speaker 1: Amen? So let's jump into the verse of the day.
- 1:07Speaker 2: And the verse of the day is Philippines. And we'll
- 1:11Speaker 2: jump back into Philippines as well as we allow the
- 1:14Speaker 2: Spirit to take over the study. Philippines chapter 4 verse
- 1:20Speaker 2: 19 states, My Lord God in heaven has plenty of
- 1:24Speaker 2: good and valuable things. Because you belong to Jesus Christ.
- 1:28Speaker 2: God will give to you everything that you need.
- 1:34Speaker 1: I love that because....
- 1:40Speaker 2: We all talk about things that we want out of
- 1:43Speaker 2: this life. Whether it's material things or career or people.
- 1:49Speaker 1: And we lose sight of what God already gives us
- 1:52Speaker 1: each and every day. And not everybody is... As blessed
- 1:59Speaker 1: as others are.
- 2:01Speaker 2: But.
- 2:02Speaker 1: If you have a heart. You have somewhere to start.
- 2:07Speaker 2: And.
- 2:10Speaker 1: As I continue to. You know. You can hear some noise. But.
- 2:18Speaker 2: I want to get to Philippines. That same chapter.
- 2:25Speaker 1: That's horny. That right there was on. So. My Lord God.
- 2:34Speaker 2: Because God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit.
- 2:38Speaker 1: Three in one. The Trinity. I can get into that.
- 2:41Speaker 1: But I've already had plenty of episodes. But we're going
- 2:46Speaker 1: to break down this. Verse. My Lord God.
- 2:49Speaker 2: And heaven has plenty of good and valuable things. Because
- 2:52Speaker 2: you belong to Christ Jesus.
- 2:55Speaker 1: See how they put. Christ Jesus, his last name first.
- 3:02Speaker 1: There's meaning behind that. Let me get deeper.
- 3:04Speaker 2: God will give to you everything that you need. Our
- 3:08Speaker 2: Father God is very great. Praise him always and forever.
- 3:13Speaker 1: Amen.
- 3:13Speaker 2: That verse 20, we have to give credit where credit's due.
- 3:20Speaker 2: Thank God for even having the world even be here
- 3:23Speaker 2: for us to experience this.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Even though it's not always good. Sometimes it's bad. And
- 3:31Speaker 1: Paul finishes his letter. No matter what.
- 3:36Speaker 2: Paul knew his assignment. Philippians chapter 4 verse 21 states.
- 3:42Speaker 2: Say hello on my behalf to all of God's people.
- 3:47Speaker 2: There you belong to Christ Jesus. The believers who are
- 3:51Speaker 2: here with me. Say hello to me. I want to
- 3:56Speaker 2: break that down because when you are amongst people that
- 4:02Speaker 2: are not of the Holy Spirit and not of God,
- 4:05Speaker 2: there's not going to be a whole lot of conversation.
- 4:07Speaker 1: They'll avoid you. They'll just not want to have much
- 4:11Speaker 1: to do with you.
- 4:12Speaker 2: And they might gossip about you. I mean, the list
- 4:15Speaker 2: goes on. All God's people here say hello. So if
- 4:21Speaker 2: people aren't saying hello to you or whatever.
- 4:25Speaker 1: There is different reasons why that may be happening.
- 4:31Speaker 2: But we pray that the Lord Jesus Christ will continue
- 4:34Speaker 2: to be kind to you so that your spirits are strong.
- 4:38Speaker 1: We all have a spirit. We all have a body.
- 4:40Speaker 1: We all have a soul.
- 4:42Speaker 2: We all have a mind. And I can keep going
- 4:45Speaker 2: down the line. But our spirit and the Holy Spirit intertwine.
- 4:52Speaker 2: When we get into devotion, when we get into prayer,
- 4:55Speaker 2: when we get into meditation, when we get into scripture,
- 4:59Speaker 2: when we get into worship, the more and more that
- 5:02Speaker 2: we increase that, the more and more we're not necessarily
- 5:07Speaker 2: battling against our flesh.
- 5:11Speaker 1: And not only that, but our will.
- 5:15Speaker 2: Because if it's in our hands, we could just wreck it,
- 5:21Speaker 2: crash out. So, Philippians chapter 4, very deep, and I
- 5:29Speaker 2: kind of just want to free, free fall it now
- 5:33Speaker 2: with nine minutes to go. You know, having it be
- 5:37Speaker 2: that I've been doing these episodes for a while now,
- 5:40Speaker 2: I'm very grateful that I have the ability to be
- 5:45Speaker 2: able to allow the Holy Spirit to work through me,
- 5:49Speaker 2: and I don't want to get too distracted. deep into
- 5:52Speaker 2: my story because I don't want to boast about me.
- 5:56Speaker 1: It's about God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Amen? So,
- 6:01Speaker 1: understanding that.
- 6:04Speaker 2: Leaning not on your own emotions, not on your own thoughts,
- 6:09Speaker 2: being able to.
- 6:14Speaker 1: Know that your joy is It's determined on how much
- 6:23Speaker 1: you really have faith. Believing is free. But actually believing
- 6:32Speaker 1: takes sacrifice.
- 6:33Speaker 2: It takes belief in something that you can't see. But
- 6:39Speaker 2: just because you can't see it doesn't mean you can't
- 6:41Speaker 2: feel it. And not everybody that follows Christ believes. And
- 6:46Speaker 2: believes in Christ. Feels the Holy Spirit. And that's what
- 6:49Speaker 2: I want to talk a little bit about. Because there's
- 6:53Speaker 2: a lot of confusion with the church. A lot of
- 6:57Speaker 2: churches that don't break down the Trinity of God, Jesus,
- 7:03Speaker 2: and the Holy Spirit. And why we worship Jesus. The
- 7:07Speaker 2: Son of God. And also, excuse me, the Son of Man.
- 7:13Speaker 2: Not only was he an example, but he left his spirit,
- 7:16Speaker 2: his Holy Spirit, here that can multiply into, obviously, individually
- 7:25Speaker 2: spirited into us. And that's the beauty of how Jesus
- 7:29Speaker 2: said that we would do even greater things than him
- 7:32Speaker 2: for the spirit that he left us until we can
- 7:34Speaker 2: be with him in heaven. And that's something that we
- 7:39Speaker 2: need to discuss because.
- 7:42Speaker 2: You'll hear some people say that Jesus is right next
- 7:45Speaker 2: to you. Like the ghost of Jesus. And I just
- 7:50Speaker 2: can't believe that. But what I can believe is there's
- 7:54Speaker 2: guardian angels and there's also the Holy Spirit that can
- 7:57Speaker 2: live in my heart. The same power and authority that
- 8:01Speaker 2: rose Jesus from the dead actually lives in me if
- 8:07Speaker 2: I give it permission to.
- 8:09Speaker 1: Here's the thing where a lot of people... they get
- 8:13Speaker 1: astray and they get scared in order to be a.
- 8:21Speaker 2: Vessel of God and to be actually his follower you
- 8:25Speaker 2: know you have to put on his consciousness what he
- 8:28Speaker 2: would do not what you would do in every situation
- 8:31Speaker 2: now that doesn't mean you're going to always be perfect
- 8:33Speaker 2: and every outcome is going to be just like what
- 8:36Speaker 2: Jesus would do excuse me it might be getting a
- 8:39Speaker 2: little cold I hope not I think it's just allergies,
- 8:43Speaker 2: but Jesus was not only giving us the Holy Spirit,
- 8:50Speaker 2: but also gave 500 plus eyewitnesses sight of him after
- 9:03Speaker 2: him saying exactly that he was going to be raised.
- 9:08Speaker 1: From the dead.
- 9:12Speaker 2: And his disciples and other people already saw him rise
- 9:15Speaker 2: people from the dead, give sight to the blind, heal
- 9:20Speaker 2: the handicapped. And still some of them didn't understand what
- 9:25Speaker 2: was happening when Jesus left and he went back to heaven.
- 9:30Speaker 2: And it's a beautiful thing what the Holy Spirit can do.
- 9:37Speaker 2: What I've experienced... And I have five more minutes. I
- 9:41Speaker 2: also want to talk about where I'm at in my recovery.
- 9:47Speaker 2: It being over two years and being able to obtain
- 9:50Speaker 2: this wisdom that I've been able to obtain being spiritually fit,
- 9:55Speaker 2: physically fit, mentally fit. and now it's going to be
- 10:01Speaker 2: eventually financially fit and I look forward to what's going
- 10:05Speaker 2: to transpire in the next six months we all have
- 10:11Speaker 2: to realize that God's purpose in our life he never
- 10:14Speaker 2: said that it was going to be easy in the
- 10:16Speaker 2: bible how he was going to get us there Depression, anxiety, fear, doubt, self, insecurities.
- 10:27Speaker 2: We can keep going down the list, but God is
- 10:30Speaker 2: the complete opposite. And when you have him completely tapped
- 10:33Speaker 2: in into your spirit by having the Holy Spirit, by
- 10:38Speaker 2: having the relationship with Jesus, right? Allowing Jesus' spirit that
- 10:42Speaker 2: he left here when he left here. I hope that
- 10:47Speaker 2: makes a little bit more sense for you. Because there's somebody...
- 10:51Speaker 2: And not maybe just one buddy. That needed to hear that.
- 10:56Speaker 2: And needed to understand. And that's why I do these
- 11:00Speaker 2: Bible studies as well. Because for 20 years I was
- 11:04Speaker 2: a believer. But there was a lot of those times
- 11:06Speaker 2: that the church and the people that did Bible studies
- 11:08Speaker 2: kind of steered me away. So I found another route.
- 11:12Speaker 2: And being able to keep it cordial and understandable. kind
- 11:19Speaker 2: of Bible study with preaching and teaching it as well. So,
- 11:25Speaker 2: I got three minutes. It is angel time. I know
- 11:28Speaker 2: what it is to be demon time. I just wanted
- 11:30Speaker 2: to go ahead and kind of let the spirit talk
- 11:32Speaker 2: too as well as there is no one that can
- 11:38Speaker 2: get you out of your situation but yourself. And I
- 11:42Speaker 2: say yourself, but it's not just only yourself.
- 11:45Speaker 1: You have to.
- 11:47Speaker 2: Be open to realizing that you are strong, but you
- 11:52Speaker 2: are only as strong.
- 11:56Speaker 1: As you stop doing wrong.
- 12:02Speaker 2: Because the more and more that you continue to do wrong,
- 12:04Speaker 2: the more and more you're building a character of non-authentic,
- 12:14Speaker 2: not being authentic enough to be able to say that
- 12:17Speaker 2: you can be reliable.
- 12:22Speaker 1: And this has been a great episode.
- 12:29Speaker 2: I'm very thankful for where I'm at in my sobriety
- 12:33Speaker 2: I'm very thankful for where I'm at faith faith wise
- 12:36Speaker 2: my spirituality my relationships God's will AA significant other brother
- 12:47Speaker 2: mother And that's just what it just continues to be.
- 12:50Speaker 1: And I'm not doing this alone. I put God first.
- 12:56Speaker 1: I won't lose. Even if I lose everything on my list.
- 13:00Speaker 1: As long as I have number one. He will always provide.
- 13:04Speaker 1: He will always replace. Anything.
- 13:08Speaker 2: That is misplaced. Be thankful for the life that you have.
- 13:14Speaker 2: There's somebody that's praying in a. Hospital bed. They wish
- 13:18Speaker 2: they had your kind of life. Your kind of problems.
- 13:24Speaker 2: Just remember also. You don't have to live this life alone.
- 13:29Speaker 2: Find a small group. Allow the Holy Spirit in. Surrender
- 13:35Speaker 2: to Jesus. Because he's going to be the only one.
- 13:39Speaker 2: That helps you win. And it's not about.
- 13:43Speaker 1: Oh success. Success. It's all about getting your rest.
- 13:47Speaker 2: It's all about enjoying life and enjoying it after this
- 13:50Speaker 2: too because we're going to be glorified with God. So
- 13:53Speaker 2: that's something to celebrate. That's something to get ready for
- 13:57Speaker 2: and stay ready. I know I am and this is
- 14:01Speaker 2: the Power Minute. There were so many times where I
- 14:07Speaker 2: had to call upon Jesus because there was nobody else
- 14:09Speaker 2: to save me.
- 14:11Speaker 1: I couldn't even save myself.
- 14:15Speaker 2: So me being where I'm at today, if God can
- 14:18Speaker 2: turn this zombie, because I was once a zombie, into
- 14:24Speaker 2: a messenger, he can turn you into something too. You're
- 14:28Speaker 2: not too far gone for God to use you. And
- 14:30Speaker 2: it's not use you as abuse you. It's actually to
- 14:33Speaker 2: use you as a vessel to show that he can
- 14:37Speaker 2: repair brokenness.
- 14:39Speaker 1: He can repair the things that you cannot repair.
- 14:44Speaker 2: That you keep trying to run away from or that
- 14:46Speaker 2: you try to keep to yourself.
- 14:49Speaker 1: This is the Ember Show. Your host, Ember.
- 14:51Speaker 2: Thank you for pressing play. And I hope that you
- 14:53Speaker 2: have a great day, a great afternoon, a great evening.
