0:16
Speaker 1: in with your host, mister His Hop.
0:25
Speaker 2: Are the headquarters.
0:32
Speaker 3: Hello, His Hop.
0:36
Speaker 2: Los Vegas.
0:40
Speaker 4: But you lost another one?
0:54
Speaker 5: Yo? Yo?
0:55
Speaker 2: What's what's up? Family?
0:57
Speaker 1: Hey?
0:57
Speaker 2: What's handing? Is your brother? This is his how here
1:00
Speaker 2: and welcome back to His High Radio podcast where we
1:04
Speaker 2: present verse by verse. This is where we go through
1:08
Speaker 2: the Word of God, verse by verse, chapter by chapter,
1:13
Speaker 2: and today we're going to enter into Jeremiah chapter fifteen.
1:19
Speaker 2: Praise God, we get to embark in another chapter now,
1:23
Speaker 2: verse one through verse ten. This is a heavy passage, right.
1:27
Speaker 2: God makes it clear that Judas rebellion has reached the
1:31
Speaker 2: point where even the prayers of Moses and Samuel, two
1:36
Speaker 2: of the Israel's most greatest intercessors, would not reverse the
1:41
Speaker 2: judgment that was about to hit the nation. But there's
1:46
Speaker 2: another layer of this passage. Jeremiah himself is hurting, he's crying,
1:55
Speaker 2: and he's carrying the burden of delivering a message that
2:00
Speaker 2: the people didn't want to hear. He's watching his nation
2:06
Speaker 2: suffer and he's feeling the weight of being God's messenger. Now,
2:15
Speaker 2: this passage teaches us about consequences, leadership, obedience, and the
2:21
Speaker 2: emotional cost of standing for God's truth. So it's gonna
2:28
Speaker 2: be a good chapter. Grab your seat belts, hold on
2:33
Speaker 2: to something, grab your bibles, you know, pass your highlighters,
2:37
Speaker 2: and follow along, and let's go before Father in prayer,
2:43
Speaker 2: Heavenly Father, we ask Lord that you will just touch
2:46
Speaker 2: this broadcast today, that you will breathe on it. Father God,
2:50
Speaker 2: we ask, Oh Lord, that it'll go out to the masses.
2:54
Speaker 2: We asked Father God for your rim a word, Oh God,
2:56
Speaker 2: touch somebody today, Oh Lord, with your word spirit. We
3:00
Speaker 2: invite you win, Oh God, to be a part of this,
3:03
Speaker 2: and not only that, to lead this, that you will
3:07
Speaker 2: be glorified, magnified and exalted. And we asked this in
3:12
Speaker 2: Jesus' name. Amen. Now, also, there's something else we want

Speaker 2: Zonne and shout out to missus his hop. Amen. Amen.
4:43
Speaker 2: Very encouraging, all right, So let's get to the word
4:47
Speaker 2: as I broke it down. In the beginning, Jeremiah was
4:50
Speaker 2: interceding for the nation. They were suffering a severe drought
4:56
Speaker 2: and he wanted some reprieve, some relief. He wanted some
5:01
Speaker 2: relief from the judgment. The ground was dry. Even the
5:06
Speaker 2: deers would have babies and walk away because there is
5:10
Speaker 2: no grass to graze on. And this is the response
5:16
Speaker 2: to the intercession in the prayers of Jeremiah, because God
5:22
Speaker 2: kept telling him not to pray for the good of
5:25
Speaker 2: the nation. Now, we don't ever want to get to
5:28
Speaker 2: this point. Amen in her walk with the Lord, so
5:37
Speaker 2: verse one fifteen. And the Lord said to me, even
5:43
Speaker 2: if Moses and Samuel stood before me, my mind would
5:48
Speaker 2: not be favorable towards this. People cast him out of
5:54
Speaker 2: my sight. Wow. Let them go forth, Man, cast them
6:02
Speaker 2: out of my sight.
6:05
Speaker 4: Wow.
6:06
Speaker 2: Now this is incredibly, incredibly powerful, a powerful statement. Now,
6:14
Speaker 2: Moses was the great deliverer and intercessor for Israel. Moses
6:20
Speaker 2: was the one who led them through the Red Sea
6:23
Speaker 2: and God delivered them from Egypt. Samuel was also a
6:28
Speaker 2: prayer warrior in an intercessor for the nation. There was
6:32
Speaker 2: a time when Israel wanted a king. They rejected God
6:36
Speaker 2: from being their king, their direct king, and so they
6:40
Speaker 2: wanted a physical king that they could see. And when
6:44
Speaker 2: they realized that they sinned against the Lord asking for
6:48
Speaker 2: a king, they asked Samuel, do not cease to pray
6:55
Speaker 2: for us? And Samuel said, I would not sin.
6:58
Speaker 3: Right.
7:00
Speaker 2: He considered it a sin against God if he were
7:04
Speaker 2: to stop praying for the nation. Now, these are some
7:09
Speaker 2: of the most powerful intercessorers for the nation, and God
7:14
Speaker 2: says that they're intercession would not change the judgment that
7:19
Speaker 2: Judy had brought upon itself. Now, if we pay attention,
7:24
Speaker 2: we need to observe the fact that there comes a
7:27
Speaker 2: point when persistent rebellion produces consequences. Now we all know
7:34
Speaker 2: and understand the mercy of God, the love of God,
7:37
Speaker 2: the patience of God. And God even gives warning after warning.
7:44
Speaker 2: Think one second, is there an area in our lives?
7:49
Speaker 2: Is there an area in your life my life where
7:53
Speaker 2: God has warned us repeatedly? Has he told us to
7:59
Speaker 2: stop doing such and such, stop going to such a place,
8:04
Speaker 2: stop saying this, stop acting this way, stop this, or
8:07
Speaker 2: stop that, or start. Maybe some of us need to start.
8:11
Speaker 2: Maybe you need to find out a home church to
8:14
Speaker 2: go to. Maybe you need to start praying or reading
8:17
Speaker 2: your word consistently. Well, Grace does not eliminate consequences when
8:28
Speaker 2: people continually refuse to repent. Even if we do repent,
8:36
Speaker 2: sometimes God doesn't remove the consequences. So it is not
8:41
Speaker 2: worth it. Belove it to resist the mighty hand of God. Amen,
8:49
Speaker 2: And to resist his love alright verse two, And it
8:56
Speaker 2: will and it shall be. If they say to you,
9:00
Speaker 2: where should we go, then you shall tell them, Thus
9:04
Speaker 2: says the Lord, such as are for death to death,
9:10
Speaker 2: and such as are for the sword to the sword,
9:14
Speaker 2: such as are for the famine to the famine, and
9:19
Speaker 2: such as are for captivity to captivity. Now this is
9:25
Speaker 2: a devastating answer to their question.
9:28
Speaker 6: Right.
9:33
Speaker 2: God tells Jeremiah that when the people ask where they
9:38
Speaker 2: should go, the answer will be death, the sword, famine,
9:42
Speaker 2: and captivity. These are consequences. These are devastating consequences. Now,
9:51
Speaker 2: God also says that he will appoint four kinds of
9:56
Speaker 2: different judgments against the nation, that he is going to
10:01
Speaker 2: bring the sword. Right, in today's interpretation of that, it
10:07
Speaker 2: would be an ar fifteen or a nine millimeter like
10:12
Speaker 2: some people are gonna straight get taken out. And then
10:17
Speaker 2: you have dogs, birds from heaven, beasts of the earth.
10:24
Speaker 2: The imagery is severe because the situation is severe. Judah's
10:30
Speaker 2: rebellion wasn't a single mistake. It was a pattern that
10:35
Speaker 2: was repeated time and time again. And we can also
10:38
Speaker 2: remember in the last episode how it says and by
10:42
Speaker 2: the way, I apologize for the audio in our last episode,
10:45
Speaker 2: I'm learning a new microphone here, trying to get better
10:49
Speaker 2: crispy sound, and it just malfunctioned yesterday, so hopefully you
10:55
Speaker 2: heard it. But the point yesterday was that they love
10:59
Speaker 2: to straighten their hearts. It wasn't like an accident. It
11:03
Speaker 2: wasn't like an oops, or it wasn't like, oh, I
11:06
Speaker 2: didn't realize it. It was like, no, they loved it.
11:09
Speaker 2: They enjoyed it. We have to be careful because sin
11:12
Speaker 2: is fun for a season, and we could allow our
11:17
Speaker 2: affections to stray from God. And we can love our
11:21
Speaker 2: sin and have idols in our hearts and love things
11:27
Speaker 2: people places more than our love for God. So that
11:30
Speaker 2: is definitely something we need to guard against. But Judah,
11:33
Speaker 2: they love going astray in their hearts. And this is
11:39
Speaker 2: one of the judgments. This is one of the reasons
11:42
Speaker 2: why the judgment has come upon the nation in versity.
11:51
Speaker 2: And I will point over them four forms of destruction,
11:55
Speaker 2: says the Lord the sword, to slay, the dogs, to drag,
12:00
Speaker 2: the birds of heaven, of the heavens, and the beasts
12:04
Speaker 2: of the earth, to devour and to destroy it. That's
12:07
Speaker 2: what we're just saying. Verse four. I will hand them
12:11
Speaker 2: over to trouble to all the kingdoms of the earth
12:15
Speaker 2: because of Manessa, the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah,
12:22
Speaker 2: for what he did in Jerusalem. Now, this judgment is
12:27
Speaker 2: gonna straight hit the king that was a king, and
12:31
Speaker 2: in his reign is where the rebellion hit. It was
12:36
Speaker 2: his reign where they were brought into exile and brought
12:41
Speaker 2: into Babylon. Now, there was a movie called Jeremiah. They
12:46
Speaker 2: did a little movie about this, and they did a
12:50
Speaker 2: pretty good depiction of what happened in the Bible. And
12:54
Speaker 2: I can't think of it. I mean, the name of
12:57
Speaker 2: the movie I believe is Jeremiah, but I can't think
12:59
Speaker 2: of like who produced it or whatever, because I'm pretty
13:02
Speaker 2: sure there's other films out there. But this one was
13:05
Speaker 2: a really good enactment of what happened. And in the movie,
13:12
Speaker 2: it was severe. It was like it showed this king
13:17
Speaker 2: trying to flee from Babylon and he gets caught and
13:21
Speaker 2: captured and his sons, like you know, his family members
13:25
Speaker 2: and stuff are caught with him, and he was dragged
13:29
Speaker 2: back to Babylon, and the Babylonian king came out to
13:36
Speaker 2: confront him, and then right in front of him. He
13:41
Speaker 2: kills his sons.
13:43
Speaker 3: He just.
13:45
Speaker 2: Plunges them with the sword right, takes his sons out.
13:49
Speaker 2: And then right after that he said, this will be
13:50
Speaker 2: the last thing you see. Right after that, he gouges
13:54
Speaker 2: his eyes out, and so this guy is blind. And
13:58
Speaker 2: then I believe even after that, he keeps him alife,
14:00
Speaker 2: like he keeps them in chains or he's like chained
14:03
Speaker 2: to his table eating scraps. Like this was severe. And
14:10
Speaker 2: I don't know, I just think of that movie and
14:14
Speaker 2: it's it's biblically accurate. We'll read about it later on
14:18
Speaker 2: in the book. But this king had it was we
14:24
Speaker 2: do not want to trifle with our relationship with God. Amen?
14:31
Speaker 2: All right?
14:32
Speaker 5: Were we?
14:36
Speaker 2: Verse five and six? For who will have pity on you,
14:43
Speaker 2: old Jerusalem? Or who will bemoan you? Or who will
14:51
Speaker 2: turn aside to ask how you were doing? You have
14:56
Speaker 2: forsaken me, says a Lord. You have gone back. Therefore
15:01
Speaker 2: I will stretch out my hand against you to destroy you.
15:07
Speaker 2: I am weary of relenting. I am weary of relenting.
15:14
Speaker 2: That's interesting. Now, who would pity you? Now? God asks
15:19
Speaker 2: who will have compassion on Jerusalem? He says, you have
15:24
Speaker 2: forsaken me? That's the heart of the problem right there.
15:30
Speaker 2: That people didn't simply experience judgment. They first walked away
15:36
Speaker 2: from their God. Right, God says they have kept going backwards.
15:42
Speaker 2: That phrase is powerful. Instead of moving forward with God,
15:47
Speaker 2: they were moving backwards. They were moving away from him. Now,
15:53
Speaker 2: spiritual decline doesn't usually happen at once. It is usually
15:57
Speaker 2: a gradual thing, a small compromise here and there. We
16:06
Speaker 2: can ignore conviction when God tells us to do this
16:11
Speaker 2: and do that, and we like that, We want to
16:14
Speaker 2: ignore it because we want to do our own thing.
16:17
Speaker 2: Or God warns us and we ignore the warning, one
16:29
Speaker 2: decision to choose ourselves over God. Then eventually we look
16:36
Speaker 2: up and realize we're much further away than we intended
16:42
Speaker 2: to be. So we have to be careful of these
16:47
Speaker 2: small choices, these small decisions. And I want to point
16:54
Speaker 2: out how he says here and at the end of
17:01
Speaker 2: verse six that I'm weary of relenting like God. We
17:06
Speaker 2: know God to be merciful and long suffering and patient,
17:10
Speaker 2: but he got to the point where he got tired
17:12
Speaker 2: of being patient. He got tired of relenting like God.
17:23
Speaker 2: It just shows us that God is a person. Right,
17:27
Speaker 2: there's a personal side to God. This is a relationship.
17:31
Speaker 2: It's almost like if your wife or husband says, you
17:34
Speaker 2: know what, I'm tired of this marriage. I'm tired of
17:38
Speaker 2: dealing with you. You mistreating me in this relationship. I'm
17:43
Speaker 2: weary of it. And man, we have to start thinking
17:48
Speaker 2: of God in a relationship way, in the way of
17:51
Speaker 2: a relationship. Verse nine and seven, I mean seventh through nine.
17:57
Speaker 5: And I will.
18:01
Speaker 2: Window. I will window them with a windowing fan in
18:09
Speaker 2: the gates of the land. I will breathe, I will
18:13
Speaker 2: excuse me. I will bereathe them of children. I will
18:18
Speaker 2: destroy my people. Since they do not return from their ways.
18:25
Speaker 2: Their widows will be increased to me more than the
18:29
Speaker 2: sand of the sea. I will bring against them, against
18:34
Speaker 2: the mother of the young man, a plunderer. At noonday,
18:41
Speaker 2: I will cause anguish and terror to fall on them. Suddenly,
18:47
Speaker 2: anguish and terror. That's that's very interesting. Amen. In verse nine,
18:56
Speaker 2: she languishes, who has born seven, She has breathed her last,
19:06
Speaker 2: her son has gone down while it was yet day.
19:10
Speaker 2: She has been ashamed and confounded, and the remnant of them,
19:16
Speaker 2: I will deliver to the sword before their enemies, says
19:22
Speaker 2: the Lord. All right, this is powerfos. Let's break this
19:29
Speaker 2: down and then we're going to bring it home with
19:31
Speaker 2: one more verse. Now, the consequences came personal at this point.
19:42
Speaker 2: Right now, God describes scattering his people and destroying their hope.
19:49
Speaker 2: At this moment, even mothers and families experienced devastating loss.
19:57
Speaker 2: It is hard. You know, we always talk about the
19:59
Speaker 2: crying mother, especially when something happens in the in the hood,
20:03
Speaker 2: right when something happens, when one of the homies get
20:07
Speaker 2: taken out, especially if they're involved in gang banging, selling
20:13
Speaker 2: drugs or you know, illegal activity like that. You know,
20:16
Speaker 2: we want to lament a homie and the mother. You know,
20:20
Speaker 2: the mother has unconditional love. The mother will always cry
20:25
Speaker 2: out for their baby, right, and so in this instance,
20:37
Speaker 2: it says the mother will experience devastating loss. Now, what
20:48
Speaker 2: this is saying is it shows how widespread the judgment
20:52
Speaker 2: is going to be. The nation at once became a
20:58
Speaker 2: strong nation would now become vulnerable. Does that sound familiar?
21:04
Speaker 2: Does that sound like the United States? This reminds us
21:10
Speaker 2: that sin doesn't stay isolated. Our choices can affect families, communities,
21:15
Speaker 2: and even generations behind us. We always say, you know,
21:20
Speaker 2: I've heard people say I'm only hurting myself, or I'm
21:23
Speaker 2: only gonna be the one that will suffer, and things
21:26
Speaker 2: like that. But no, the truth is sin will pass
21:32
Speaker 2: through to your children, into your family, and sometimes the
21:36
Speaker 2: children will take where the parents left off and go
21:39
Speaker 2: even further and be even worse. Hey, man, we need
21:48
Speaker 2: to pray for our children, all right. Verse ten, woe
21:53
Speaker 2: is me, my mother, that you have borne me a
21:58
Speaker 2: man of strife in it, man of contention to the
22:03
Speaker 2: whole earth. I have neither lent for interest, nor have
22:11
Speaker 2: men lent to me for interest. Every one of them
22:17
Speaker 2: curses me, every one of them curses me. Now Jeremiah says,
22:29
Speaker 2: woe is me, my mother, that you have born me? Now,
22:34
Speaker 2: why is Jeremiah?
22:35
Speaker 1: Now?
22:36
Speaker 2: These are the words of Jeremiah and his response to
22:39
Speaker 2: this heavy burden, this heavy judgment that he has to
22:43
Speaker 2: pronounce upon the nation. Now, at this point, Jeremiah is exhausted.
22:53
Speaker 2: He didn't create Judah's rebellion, but he's suffering because he
22:58
Speaker 2: is the messenger delivered bring God's warning to the people. Now,
23:03
Speaker 2: some of us we have to bear the burden of
23:07
Speaker 2: our community. We may not be the ones, we're the
23:10
Speaker 2: ones who are trying to live right, trying to live
23:12
Speaker 2: a righteous life before the Lord. We're the ones who
23:16
Speaker 2: are trying to do this thing. But then the Lord
23:20
Speaker 2: may send us out to go and warn and speak
23:23
Speaker 2: to the people. He has to deliver this heavy, heavy
23:33
Speaker 2: message to the people who do not want to hear it,
23:37
Speaker 2: and then they turn against them to the point where
23:40
Speaker 2: they don't want him. Often you see people turn against
23:46
Speaker 2: the messenger of God, and they don't realize how much
23:51
Speaker 2: of an act of love it is for people to
23:53
Speaker 2: put themselves in their heart under Harm's way to try
23:58
Speaker 2: to reach them. Right, he's caught between his calling and
24:06
Speaker 2: the people that he's trying to reach. Now, this is important.
24:09
Speaker 2: Sometimes doing the right thing doesn't make everything else okay.
24:15
Speaker 2: It doesn't mean that people are gonna like you. I
24:17
Speaker 2: can remember when I opened up Club His Hop. It
24:20
Speaker 2: was a victory and a breakthrough for our ministry. And
24:24
Speaker 2: you would think that people would cheer you on, they
24:27
Speaker 2: would encourage you when you give your life to God
24:31
Speaker 2: and you embark on the call of God. But a
24:35
Speaker 2: lot of people were upset and there was a lot
24:41
Speaker 2: of opposition in that ministry. But that's a story for
24:49
Speaker 2: another podcast. Right, Sometimes obedience will make us unpopular. We
24:56
Speaker 2: have to be ready for that. Sometimes standing for God's
25:00
Speaker 2: truth means standing alone, standing by ourselves. Jeremiah right here,
25:05
Speaker 2: it teaches us, don't measure your obedience by people's approval,
25:13
Speaker 2: measure it by God's word. Let God's word be the
25:18
Speaker 2: final authority. The joy of the Lord is our strength.
25:24
Speaker 2: But I can imagine this heavy, heavy burden on the
25:30
Speaker 2: heart of Jeremiah. But basically he had to oversee the
25:33
Speaker 2: destruction of his nation, of his kinsmen. And I don't
25:42
Speaker 2: believe that he won that one convert. I don't think
25:46
Speaker 2: he had one disciple.
25:48
Speaker 4: It looks like you lost another one.
25:50
Speaker 2: I don't think he saw one person turn from their
25:54
Speaker 2: wicked ways. The people were prideful, arrogant, and persistent, and
26:01
Speaker 2: they persecuted Jeremiah, they sent him, they locked them up
26:04
Speaker 2: in jail. And so Jeremiah is expressing his heart towards God.
26:10
Speaker 2: And it's okay for us to express our heart towards God.
26:16
Speaker 2: God actually prefers it instead of gossiping or complaining or
26:22
Speaker 2: anything else. Let's go be for God and be brutally honest,
26:27
Speaker 2: and know that we can express our hearts and our
26:31
Speaker 2: thoughts before him. Amen.

30:20
Speaker 8: but inward lead they are ravenous wolves. So what he's
30:24
Speaker 8: saying that the most dangerous were to the ears of
30:27
Speaker 8: real believers are the voices of a worse I told stories.
30:30
Speaker 5: They full of it. I hear preaching line from the
30:33

Speaker 8: find a one.
30:57
Speaker 3: He's gonna make sure the other ninety nine safe, but
30:58
Speaker 3: he gonna find that one.
31:01
Speaker 7: You are listening to the Light of Las Vegas. This
31:05
Speaker 7: is the His Hop Radio show.
31:24
Speaker 2: All right, y'all, All right, y'all. This is your brother.
31:26
Speaker 2: Mis is His Hop and I am back. You are
31:28
Speaker 2: listening to the His Hot Radio podcast, presenting verse by verse.
31:33
Speaker 2: We're in the Book of Jeremiah. I want to give
31:36
Speaker 2: a quick shout out to our brother's Zone three and
31:39
Speaker 2: our sister Kira and Misses His Hop and everybody else
31:44
Speaker 2: who's dropped in from time to time. Quincy and Western
31:49
Speaker 2: Tech and all you guys, Corinth, everyone who has came
31:53
Speaker 2: through to the live chats, we appreciate y'all. This is
31:57
Speaker 2: where we build up each other, is faith. This is
32:01
Speaker 2: where we help hold each other accountable. You know, the
32:04
Speaker 2: Bible tells us that the road to life is narrow,
32:08
Speaker 2: and there are a few who find it. So this
32:12
Speaker 2: app is for the few, because we don't have to
32:15
Speaker 2: do this alone. We can encourage each other. We can
32:18
Speaker 2: post questions, we could post prayer request, we could pray
32:24
Speaker 2: for each other, we can do conference calls after the podcast.
32:28
Speaker 2: Like there's a lot that we could do to help
32:30
Speaker 2: each other on this road. But we also want to
32:34
Speaker 2: encourage you to get plugged in with your home church.
32:37
Speaker 2: Hopefully you do have one. Hopefully you have someone that
32:40
Speaker 2: can an accountability partner, someone that can pray with us,
32:45
Speaker 2: because one thing I've learned about the Book of Jeremiah
32:50
Speaker 2: is that the evil dictates of our hearts can really
32:54
Speaker 2: get us in trouble, and we need the word of
32:57
Speaker 2: God to cleanse our hearts. We have thoughts, we have imaginations,
33:01
Speaker 2: we have temptations. We get bombarded all the time, and
33:05
Speaker 2: so we don't have a prayer life and if we
33:07
Speaker 2: don't hide Guy's word in our hearts, we're vulnerable. And
33:11
Speaker 2: if we don't have someone we can call and say, hey,
33:14
Speaker 2: pray with me, then you know, we're basically missing out
33:20
Speaker 2: on the armor and the weapons we need to fight
33:24
Speaker 2: in this warfare that we are in. And so that's
33:28
Speaker 2: what this segment is about. The Accountability Partner segment, we
33:31
Speaker 2: give you daily challenges to get in contact, to call
33:34
Speaker 2: your accountability partner, text them, email them or something like
33:38
Speaker 2: that and have honest conversations with them, right. And we
33:42
Speaker 2: also like to post them in a live chat where
33:45
Speaker 2: you can fall back and kind of rigid and go
33:48
Speaker 2: through the exercises. And also on the app it self,
33:51
Speaker 2: hit that top left menu and hit that drop down,
33:56
Speaker 2: click on podcasts and click on yours truly his out
33:59
Speaker 2: radio podcast. By the way, if you miss the podcast,
34:03
Speaker 2: that's where you can go to the archive or the
34:05
Speaker 2: replay and you can catch it later. Our brother is
34:09
Speaker 2: own three. He hits up the replay when he's not
34:11
Speaker 2: able to meet us every day at eleven, so that's
34:15
Speaker 2: another option for you. But once you go to the podcast,
34:19
Speaker 2: go down to the link that says accountability Partner, answer
34:23
Speaker 2: those questions. Go through those questions and answer them for
34:26
Speaker 2: yourself and just kind of see where you're at. But
34:29
Speaker 2: the only way it works is if we have integrity
34:31
Speaker 2: and we have to be honest with ourselves, right because
34:34
Speaker 2: I believe the worst form of deception is self deception,
34:38
Speaker 2: when we deceive ourselves, and the best way we can
34:41
Speaker 2: guard against it is by having Guy's word in our heart.
34:46
Speaker 2: And that's what the accountability partner is for, is to say,
34:48
Speaker 2: you know what, you got some funky stuff in your
34:51
Speaker 2: heart here, you need to replace it with Guy's word.
34:56
Speaker 2: So here is today's challenge. Ask your accountability part is
35:00
Speaker 2: there an area where I'm compromising because I'm afraid of
35:06
Speaker 2: people's opinions. That's a good one. Then identify one specific
35:14
Speaker 2: situation where you need to choose obedience over man's approval,
35:22
Speaker 2: and then pray about it together. There's always power in agreement.
35:27
Speaker 2: Amen Hala Lujan. Also, I want to let you know
35:32
Speaker 2: that his Hot Radio is a monitored and a reporting
35:37
Speaker 2: radio station. That means we don't just play music over
35:40
Speaker 2: the internet. We do have three different charts that we
35:43
Speaker 2: report too, and the app itself is a chart. Once
35:47
Speaker 2: your favorite song plays hit that thumbs up button next
35:50
Speaker 2: to it. You can give it five stars. And if
35:53
Speaker 2: you are an artist you would like to submit your music,
35:56
Speaker 2: go to our website his hot nation dot com. Hit
35:59
Speaker 2: that submission tab, fill out the info, and also check
36:03
Speaker 2: out a promo package is very affordable and it would
36:07
Speaker 2: be helpful to help you get that exposure that you're
36:11
Speaker 2: looking for. Man, all right, it is time for today's
36:26
Speaker 2: trivia question, our trivia champ. Now, my wife keeps challenging
36:36
Speaker 2: me to make these questions harder. So she said the
36:38
Speaker 2: question the other day was weak as well, according to her,
36:43
Speaker 2: But I don't know. I think we're up in the game.
36:49
Speaker 2: But we'll take another stab at it today. So the
36:54
Speaker 2: question is in Jeremiah fifteen one God names two specific,
37:00
Speaker 2: specific biblical figures whose presence before him would still not
37:06
Speaker 2: change his decision concerning Judah. Who were the two men?
37:17
Speaker 2: Who were the two men the first the suppost to
37:21
Speaker 2: answer is a trivia champ for today, and we will
37:25
Speaker 2: announce the winner on tomorrow's episode. All right, our next
37:35
Speaker 2: segment is our community shout out. This is where we
37:39
Speaker 2: give updates about our activities, our whereabouts and the things
37:44
Speaker 2: that you guys can get involved in wed like to
37:48
Speaker 2: invite you to come out to our events to volunteer.
37:51
Speaker 2: Sometimes I will bless you if you just want to
37:54
Speaker 2: serve others. Amen. And we have a lot of spots
38:01
Speaker 2: in the community where we can plug you in. If
38:04
Speaker 2: it's not our event, we could definitely get you plugged
38:07
Speaker 2: into feeding the homeless or different things like that, helping
38:12
Speaker 2: the community. You know, whatever God has placed in your
38:16
Speaker 2: heart in your life to do. But this Saturday, we
38:21
Speaker 2: have a back to school event at our church, Fresh
38:25
Speaker 2: Wing Community Church off a gallon and Rancho, So we
38:30
Speaker 2: need y'all to show up for that. If you have supplies,
38:35
Speaker 2: if you I mean not have sapalmo. Yeah, you can
38:38
Speaker 2: always donate if you want to. But if you're a child,
38:42
Speaker 2: if you have a child, they need school supplies and
38:44
Speaker 2: there's an opportunity to get some this weekend. And also
38:50
Speaker 2: we will be at the Resort World. I will be
38:52
Speaker 2: DJing on the ones and Tuesa, August twenty ninth. That
38:58
Speaker 2: event is going to go down and that is more
39:00
Speaker 2: like a business mixer event, but all are invited. You
39:07
Speaker 2: need to come out. Maybe you have a business idea,
39:10
Speaker 2: maybe you are in business and you would like to
39:12
Speaker 2: make some connections. This would be a great event to
39:16
Speaker 2: come out and check that out as well. But before
39:25
Speaker 2: we move on, I do want to ask for your
39:29
Speaker 2: prayers my wife, not my wife, my mother. She's in Michigan.
39:35
Speaker 2: There's a whole story concerning her. But I've been on
39:40
Speaker 2: the phone with my siblings a lot yesterday because she
39:45
Speaker 2: is actually on life support and we have to make
39:50
Speaker 2: the decision this morning whether or not keep her on
39:55
Speaker 2: life support. Now, I pray that God will do a miracle,
40:01
Speaker 2: and we prayed that we would have one or two
40:04
Speaker 2: days just to see if God will improve her situation
40:08
Speaker 2: before we have to make the decision. So if we
40:13
Speaker 2: can do this before we end out this podcast, so
40:20
Speaker 2: we get pray together for my mom for God to
40:23
Speaker 2: do a miraculous work before our time is up. Now
40:29
Speaker 2: I'm in Vegas, they're in Michigan. They're like three hours
40:32
Speaker 2: ahead of us. So my brother probably already got the
40:35
Speaker 2: news because we wanted to see if she could improve overnight.
40:40
Speaker 2: So this time of me doing this podcast, we haven't
40:45
Speaker 2: made the decision yet, so I want to pray before
40:49
Speaker 2: the Lord. So I'm gonna go ahead and get our
40:55
Speaker 2: closing comments and some life application real quick so that
41:05
Speaker 2: we can get to that prayer. So here's our life application.
41:09
Speaker 2: Jeremiah fifteen one through ten gives us several lessons. God
41:15
Speaker 2: his patient, but his patience has a limit. Now, do
41:21
Speaker 2: not continuously reject God's correction while assuming everything will always
41:26
Speaker 2: be okay. Those deck of cars can come crashing down
41:31
Speaker 2: at any moment. Also, we learn that sin has consequences.
41:37
Speaker 2: Forgiveness doesn't mean we never experience the consequences of our choices.
41:46
Speaker 2: We can rob the bank and ask God to forgive us,
41:48
Speaker 2: but that doesn't mean that we're not going to go
41:50
Speaker 2: to prison. Right, we could be forgiven, we still have
41:55
Speaker 2: to deal with our consequences. Intercession matters, but repentance matters
42:02
Speaker 2: even more. We should pray for people, but people must
42:07
Speaker 2: ultimately respond to God, and they need to repent. Obedience
42:13
Speaker 2: can be lonely. Jeremiah didn't have a popular standing with
42:19
Speaker 2: the people, right, he was very unpopular, and God understands
42:26
Speaker 2: when his servant is hurting. Jeremiah's emotional pain wasn't hidden
42:31
Speaker 2: from God. So God understands, and I believe that we
42:38
Speaker 2: need to take our situations to him. Amen. Are you
42:46
Speaker 2: willing to obey God even when obedience makes you unpopular. Amen. Now,
43:02
Speaker 2: God's mercy should never become an excuse for our rebellion. Right,
43:07
Speaker 2: Judah had been warned repeatedly, but had and they also
43:13
Speaker 2: had opportunities to repent, and they had profits that were
43:20
Speaker 2: speaking to them, but they continued moving backwards instead of
43:25
Speaker 2: moving forward. And Jeremiah shows us another side of obedience.
43:30
Speaker 2: Sometimes being faithful is painful. Sometimes a person delivering the
43:36
Speaker 2: message is hurting too. If you're doing what God has
43:43
Speaker 2: called you to do and you're not receiving applause, don't
43:46
Speaker 2: automatically assume you're doing something wrong. Amen. As a matter
43:52
Speaker 2: of fact, that's a sign that you're doing something right.
44:00
Speaker 2: May not have been popular, but Jeremiah was faithful, and
44:03
Speaker 2: that's what God is looking He's looking for good and
44:07
Speaker 2: faithful servants, and that's what he's asking from us. Don't
44:12
Speaker 2: compromise the truth just to gain acceptance. Don't abandon your
44:17
Speaker 2: calling because people criticize you. And don't confuse popularity for
44:22
Speaker 2: what God approves. Just because it may be popular doesn't
44:30
Speaker 2: mean that God approves of it. Amen. We need to
44:34
Speaker 2: stay faithful, we need to stay humble, We need to
44:36
Speaker 2: stay in God's word, all right, let's pray out for today, Father,
44:43
Speaker 2: Heavenlie Father, I bring up my mother once again, Karen Walker. Well,
44:50
Speaker 2: he asked, Father, God, that your will will be done
44:55
Speaker 2: in her life. The doctor's family members are saying that
45:01
Speaker 2: her quality of life is just not there, that it
45:05
Speaker 2: would be a merciful thing and a humane thing to
45:10
Speaker 2: do is to pull the plug in to allow her
45:14
Speaker 2: to pass away. But Father, we want to know first
45:19
Speaker 2: of all that she is right with you.
45:21
Speaker 4: God.
45:21
Speaker 2: We asked that you'll give her the opportunity, give her
45:24
Speaker 2: a right mind. Send somebody bold with the Gospel, or God,
45:29
Speaker 2: send somebody bold enough to preach to her, even if
45:33
Speaker 2: it seems like she cannot hear. Oh God, give her
45:41
Speaker 2: another opportunity before she meets you, Father God, face to face.
45:48
Speaker 2: Even though I didn't have a relationship with her, Father,
45:51
Speaker 2: I love her. You've given me a love for her.
45:53
Speaker 2: I forgive her, and Father, we want to usher her
45:57
Speaker 2: into your presence. So we come against the stratages. We
46:01
Speaker 2: come against the lives of Satan. I applied the blood
46:04
Speaker 2: of Jesus upon her soul. Oh God, give her another opportunity,
46:09
Speaker 2: O God Lord, to return if she has already slipped
46:13
Speaker 2: into eternity. Let her return and cry out for you,
46:15
Speaker 2: O God and Father. I'm asking for total and complete healing,
46:21
Speaker 2: O God, that she will have a good quality of life. God,
46:24
Speaker 2: restore her mind, her emotions, her body, her youth, Allow
46:31
Speaker 2: old God to experience her family in a way that
46:34
