  Speaker 1: We're going to be in Isaiah, but.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: First let's go ahead before we get into the Gospel
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: of Isaiah to jump into prayer.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Lord, Father that art in heaven, I come to you
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: in prayer to be able to have the Holy Spirit
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: be able to speak through this mic and go through
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: the listeners' ears and be able to reach their hearts
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: and minds and be able to apply these verses to
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: their lives.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: In the Lord Jesus Christ's name I pray. Amen.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: So I'm on the go, so bear with me. I'm
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: a little out of breath this evening. So there might
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: be some pauses. I just want to give you also
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: some time to get to your Bible or get on
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: your Bible app and read along as you hear along
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: the verse of the day is Isaiah chapter 41 verse 10.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: I'm just looking at this beautiful moon giving you some time.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: to get to Isaiah chapter 41. You don't have to.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: You can just hear along, but I'm just looking at
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: this moon and I'm in awe. And as I've been walking,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: I've just been just so grateful for life in general.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: I might not have the finances. I might not have
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: the material things, but I.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Have this peace. I have this joy that the world
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: can never give me. I can never have enough toys.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: I can never have enough property. I could never have Enough.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: It'll give.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: Me that temporary happiness... But it also comes with a price...
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: And there's also a price to be able to... To obtain.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: This ability to have.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: The capacity... To even....
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Obtain this joy as well... It's a sacrifice... We all
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: have to make sacrifices... Whether it's our time... Our efforts...
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Our energy... our money, and there's always risk and reward, right?
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: I've given you enough time. Let's get to Isaiah chapter 41,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: verse 10, and we'll probably dig deeper into verse 11
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: and 12 as well.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: But let's jump into it.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: And forgive me for the background noise.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: If you hear some cars, I am close to the
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: main road.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Isaiah chapter 41, verse 10 states, I am with you,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: so do not be afraid. I am your God, so
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: do not be upset. I will make you strong and
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: I will help you. My powerful right hand will keep
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: you safe. Why does Isaiah.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: Say this?
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Because he experienced God's protection, God's love. There's so many
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: different narratives that we can kind of go off of this.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: How powerful God can be once he has his hand
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: on your life.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: It takes a lot of trust. It takes a lot
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: of faith. It takes losing people. Whether they're friends, romantic, whatever.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: That sometimes to follow Jesus, you will see Who really
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: genuinely cares about you. And your beliefs. They might have
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: the same beliefs. But they might not follow Christ. Stay
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: with me now. Stay with me now.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: I am with you.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Is how the verse starts. So do not be afraid.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: How many times do we feel. Nervous.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Overwhelmed.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: Overworked.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: And we don't lean on. Oh wow. We got the
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Holy Spirit with us. Right here.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: It's not only a healer, but a guider, a gift.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: But to tap.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Into this, you have to replace the fear with faith.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: And how do you do that? Through trials and tribulations,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: through times where you need to kind of reflect how
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: far you have come No matter where you're at with
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: your walk with God, by having that relationship with Jesus
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: and allowing the Holy Spirit to work through you, it
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: does not matter how long. It matters what you're doing
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: right now. How are you connecting with God? Whether it's
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: through prayer, whether it's through praise, whether it's through reading
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: the Bible, meditating on the word as well as something
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: that I need to practice more.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: I'm not sitting... Ooh, excuse me.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: I'm not sitting here, obviously, in this episode I'm actually walking,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: but I'm not claiming to be a saint.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: I never will be. Because the way that it all
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: really works.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Is that I'm going to fall short. And I need
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: a savior. As I look at this beautiful moon. And
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: all these cars going by with places to go.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: They're in a hurry.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: I've learned to slow down. And realize that the spirit
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: is working on me. So there's going to be times
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: where I'm feeling uncomfortable. Because things are being taken out
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: of me that I've clinged to. Now be careful what
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: you pray for, what you ask for, for God to
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: do in your body. I'm not talking about your finances,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: your material things, your relationships.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: I'm talking about you.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Because when you really start tapping into that Holy Spirit
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: and you really ask the Lord to fix you, Be
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: prepared for what's to come afterwards. The aftermath of that.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Being uncomfortable. You have to get comfortable with it. Over time, repeating,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: because we are creatures of habit.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: That's where.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: My addiction to alcohol and drugs.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: In my past life.
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: See, I say past life because I wasn't living right.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Now I am.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Does that mean that I'm perfect and I don't sin? No,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: I sin every day. But I do not lean on
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: my sin like I used to. I lean on Jesus Christ.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: I lean on the Holy Spirit to be able to
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: make me right and be willing to be obedient to
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: what the Word says. And allowing the Holy Spirit to
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: be able to speak through this mic and go through
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: your ears and reach your hearts and your minds and
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: be able to apply these verses to your life.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: How can I help?
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: I'm going to lead you to the one that helped me.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: It's not my voice. It's not how I word things.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: It is the Spirit of God that saved me.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: So as we go into Isaiah chapter 41... Verse 11,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: I want you to keep this in open mind because
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: this is something that you need to listen to, not
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: just hear me. Listen to this. Everyone who has been
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: angry with you will now become completely ashamed.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Those who have attacked you will disappear and die. Let
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: me repeat that. Somebody needs to hear this twice.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: Isaiah chapter 41 verse 11 states, Listen to this.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Listen. Don't just hear me.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Everyone who has been angry with you will now become
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: completely ashamed.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: Why does it say that?
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Because they're going to see how the Holy Spirit has
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: transformed you. That's not going to be something that people
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: are going to necessarily clap you're not going to get
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: clapped for for following jesus you're not going to get
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: a parade here on this earth if anything you're gonna
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: you're gonna get more than the opposite you're gonna get
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: criticized your faith will be tested as well.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: As i go deeper i want you to listen to.
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: This Those who have attacked you will disappear and die.
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: That doesn't mean that they'll necessarily disappear and die.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: What it does mean is that they will leave your life.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: They will not have a tangle on anything that you do.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: So I'm looking at this moon. It's so beautiful.
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: So beautiful.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: In the spirit of God. all of us can obtain it.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: But it is a choice. We all have the power.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: To let somebody else have power over us.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: Ooh, let me preach. Let me preach for a minute.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: When you connect to the Holy Spirit, the other spirits,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: including the ones that do not approve of you, will
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: have to leave you. You have something that is undivined.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: It's not just, oh, I'm highly blessed and favored.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: No, you're protected. And that's because you continue to connect with.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: A source that is higher than yourself. Understanding that.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Not everybody has their best interest at heart.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: For themselves even. How can they have the best interest...
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: At heart for you? You gotta be very careful. You
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: gotta be very careful. How you... Convert these verses to
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: your lives. Because we also need to keep in mind.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: That this was wrote. In a different time. That's why
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: I like to get the easy. Reading version. It's not
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: that I can't completely read.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: But it's just.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: It really breaks it down. I don't have to read
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: the same context.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: When it was written.
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: To get it. And I believe a lot of people.
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: Get into that headspace.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: And think that. Oh. Oh.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: I have to be religious to have God in my life.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: I have to go to church. No, you get to
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: go to church. To spiritually be cleansed by praising God
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: while listening to those that eyewitnessed Jesus Christ himself. Not
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: talking about the pastor. Talking about the message. talking about
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: the mission, all you have to do is not be
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: ashamed of Jesus Christ and having that relationship with him
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: and sharing your story.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: You don't have to share necessarily just.
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: About what.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: Jesus is all about.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: Share with people what Jesus has done to your life.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: And if he has not done nothing to your life,
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: you must ask yourself this. What have you done for
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: God lately?
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: Have you asked God how he's doing?
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: There's so many different things that I could say right
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: now that are going to maybe convict you. But I
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: want to lead you in the right direction. Isaiah Chapter
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: 41 verse 10 is great.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: Reading the Bible is great.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: But studying the Bible and reading the Bible is not
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: alone going to be able to save you.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Going to church every Sunday is not going to save you.
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: Praising Jesus just on Sunday is not going to save you.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: But praying to Him daily and being honest Watch what
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: he can do. Don't try to be like the religious leaders,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: like Jesus came down as the flesh of God to
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: tell you and to tell the religious leaders how to
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: really live, how to really pray, how to really have compassion.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: And he came to serve. He didn't come to be glorified.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: came to help people let that sink in there is
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: a reward when you have the ability to help others
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: mentally physically financially spiritually we can keep going down the
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: list but I want to leave it at this I
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: got 20 seconds the most important thing that you could
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: really take from this episode is having that relationship with
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Jesus Christ everything else is secondary I'm not saying that
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: the Bible isn't A lovely book.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying that praise. I love. That's one of
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: my favorite parts of church. Is praising. But I know.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: At the end of the day. Me going to church.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: On a regular basis.
