- 0:01Speaker 1: Haul right coming to your life from alta Mountae springs forwarded.
- 0:03Speaker 1: This is the Ember show your host Ember, and first
- 0:07Speaker 1: and foremost, before we get into Proverbs chapter twenty one,
- 0:10Speaker 1: let's get into prayer. Lord Father, that art's in heaven.
- 0:13Speaker 1: I come to you in prayer to be able to
- 0:14Speaker 1: have the Holy Spirit, be able to speak through this
- 0:16Speaker 1: mic and reach through the listener's ear and reach their
- 0:20Speaker 1: hearts and minds, and be able to apply these verses
- 0:22Speaker 1: to their lives and the Lord Jesus Christ's name, I
- 0:24Speaker 1: pray Amen. So like I stated that we're gonna be
- 0:27Speaker 1: in Proverbs chapter twenty one tonight, if you wanna go
- 0:30Speaker 1: ahead and grab your Bible or get on your Bible
- 0:33Speaker 1: app and read along as you hear along, and it's
- 0:37Speaker 1: gonna be a great chapter, as most of them are.
- 0:44Speaker 1: And there's always good chapters, there's always good episodes when
- 0:50Speaker 1: it comes to my show. And it's because it's not
- 0:54Speaker 1: always all me. I wanna make sure that I make
- 0:57Speaker 1: this clear as I give you time to grab your
- 0:58Speaker 1: Bible or get on the Bible app for Proverbs chapter
- 1:00Speaker 1: twenty one. This is teaching and preaching. This is also
- 1:06Speaker 1: my spirit and the Holy Spirit working together and not
- 1:09Speaker 1: wrestling together, because I know how to go down that avenue.
- 1:12Speaker 1: So Proverb Chapter twenty one, Verse one states, the Lord
- 1:16Speaker 1: controls the things that a king decides to do. He
- 1:20Speaker 1: can change the king's thoughts like the direction of water
- 1:25Speaker 1: in a stream. And it kind of goes off of
- 1:27Speaker 1: what I just said. The spirit and my spirit we
- 1:30Speaker 1: work together. We don't work against each other. And having
- 1:34Speaker 1: the spirit be able to come in and change the
- 1:37Speaker 1: thought pattern change certain things that I can't do on
- 1:41Speaker 1: my own. And there's also steps to take to get
- 1:47Speaker 1: to that level as well. Whatever you're struggling in, there's
- 1:51Speaker 1: a program for it. Amen So. Verse two states people
- 1:54Speaker 1: think that everything they do is right, but the Lord
- 1:59Speaker 1: knows exactly why they are doing it. Sometimes there's secret motives, right.
- 2:04Speaker 1: Sometimes people believe what they're doing is right because it's
- 2:08Speaker 1: making them feel good. It's making them feel comfortable. They're
- 2:11Speaker 1: not putting themselves in people's shoes necessarily, So let's get
- 2:14Speaker 1: into it a little deeper. Verse three. If you do
- 2:16Speaker 1: what is right and fair, it pleases the Lord more
- 2:19Speaker 1: than sacrifices. We all make sacrifices, you know before it
- 2:25Speaker 1: really taking God's will and putting it above all. There's
- 2:30Speaker 1: plenty of sacrifices that I've made, and it's being more
- 2:36Speaker 1: glorifying God and everything that I do, whether it's my
- 2:39Speaker 1: relationship or you can put an sse at the end
- 2:42Speaker 1: of that, the relationships you know, with my mom, my brother,
- 2:46Speaker 1: and then there's a different form of significant other relationships,
- 2:51Speaker 1: and that's something that it takes a lot of trial
- 2:56Speaker 1: and error as well. And being able to realize that
- 3:00Speaker 1: not everybody is even close to perfect. And I'm speaking
- 3:04Speaker 1: about myself, and being able to love someone accordingly to
- 3:10Speaker 1: God's will and accordingly to helping them is something that
- 3:15Speaker 1: I love doing. And it does not matter if it
- 3:19Speaker 1: is someone that I'm in love with or someone that
- 3:22Speaker 1: is blood someone that is outside of blood as well.
- 3:25Speaker 1: We all must love one another. We don't have to
- 3:27Speaker 1: like each other. Verse four. Wicked people are proud and
- 3:32Speaker 1: they boast sin is their guide through life. Now you
- 3:37Speaker 1: can have sin be the guide of through life, or
- 3:41Speaker 1: you can have the Bible and being able to be
- 3:44Speaker 1: more christ like putting that Christ's consciousness on. There's no really,
- 3:47Speaker 1: there's so many other avenues you could take, and it
- 3:50Speaker 1: all leads to the same destination, destruction and I've dealt
- 3:56Speaker 1: with self destructing and being self destructive and it just
- 4:02Speaker 1: brings no good. So I'm gonna keep it moving because
- 4:04Speaker 1: i want to try to get to Verse ten. This
- 4:06Speaker 1: is only a fifteen minute segment. A careful person makes
- 4:09Speaker 1: good plans and he has everything that he needs. But
- 4:13Speaker 1: anyone who works in a hurry will soon become poor.
- 4:18Speaker 1: We got to work thoroughly through anything that we do
- 4:22Speaker 1: that glorifies God, being careful with what we say, what
- 4:26Speaker 1: we do with our time. Verse six. If you deceive
- 4:32Speaker 1: people to become rich, it will soon all disappear. It
- 4:36Speaker 1: will lead you to an earthly death, an early death.
- 4:40Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but it's an earthly death as well. How
- 4:43Speaker 1: many times do we just run ourselves and run ourselves
- 4:45Speaker 1: and we don't get the proper rest, and we deceive ourselves,
- 4:50Speaker 1: let alone deceive other people that we are this type
- 4:54Speaker 1: of person that can take on so much responsibility, take
- 4:58Speaker 1: on so much this, and it's a mask, and being
- 5:03Speaker 1: able to take that mask off with certain people and
- 5:05Speaker 1: be able to break down, just like we're breaking down
- 5:08Speaker 1: these verses. Right. You can have that with the Lord,
- 5:12Speaker 1: you can have that with certain people. But in order
- 5:15Speaker 1: to get trust you have to give it amen. So
- 5:21Speaker 1: Verse eight, guilty people are always going the wrong way.
- 5:25Speaker 1: God good people, which God is very aware of. Good
- 5:30Speaker 1: people keep on the right way even when we get
- 5:32Speaker 1: off track. When you're a good person, you're a good person.
- 5:38Speaker 1: We can make poor choices, but God sees the heart.
- 5:43Speaker 1: People see your past, People see what you have done.
- 5:46Speaker 1: People don't see what is being the work that's being
- 5:49Speaker 1: done underneath. And verse ninited states it is better to
- 5:53Speaker 1: live on the roof of your house than to live
- 5:56Speaker 1: with the wife who always argues. Arguments are the norm
- 6:05Speaker 1: of a lot of marriages, and there's a lot of
- 6:10Speaker 1: making up. There's a lot. I mean, the truth of
- 6:12Speaker 1: the matter is it's better to have the communication and
- 6:17Speaker 1: to be able to even sometimes agree to disagree or
- 6:21Speaker 1: sometimes be able to walk away. And it's hard. It's hard.
- 6:25Speaker 1: I'm not sitting here saying anything that I'm breaking down
- 6:27Speaker 1: that I'm applying to my own life one hundred percent.
- 6:30Speaker 1: I want to make that clear. Verse ten. Evil things
- 6:34Speaker 1: are the food that wicked people eat to live. They
- 6:37Speaker 1: are not kind to anyone, even their friends. And I've
- 6:43Speaker 1: dealt with this, you know, with people that I thought
- 6:45Speaker 1: I consider my friends would pick on me and like,
- 6:48Speaker 1: that's not what you're supposed to do as a good friend.
- 6:52Speaker 1: And I'll leave that at that. When a proud person
- 6:56Speaker 1: receives punishment, silly people become wise. When he's a wise person,
- 7:01Speaker 1: he learns more knowledge, keeping that open mind right, knowing
- 7:06Speaker 1: that just because you believe in God, just because you
- 7:10Speaker 1: believe in Jesus and you start to believe in the
- 7:12Speaker 1: Holy Spirit, that does not mean that you're better than
- 7:14Speaker 1: the non believer. There's a lot that you have to
- 7:19Speaker 1: learn as someone that has encountered, whether it be a
- 7:24Speaker 1: lot of being more like Christ or being less of
- 7:29Speaker 1: a sinner. You know. And I'm gonna get really deep
- 7:31Speaker 1: into this verse twelve. The righteous one who knows what
- 7:35Speaker 1: happens in the homes of wicked people, he punishes them
- 7:40Speaker 1: as they deserve. Verse thirteen. If you refuse to listen
- 7:44Speaker 1: when poor people ask for help, you too will receive
- 7:47Speaker 1: no help when you need it. M that's deep, and
- 7:53Speaker 1: I want to check time. I still got about four
- 7:56Speaker 1: more minutes. We're going to keep going because this is
- 7:58Speaker 1: getting really good. Want to get close to as many
- 8:01Speaker 1: verses as I can. And some of these verses are
- 8:04Speaker 1: going to resonate with you. Some of them they will not,
- 8:07Speaker 1: And that's okay. You just have to believe the Bible.
- 8:10Speaker 1: You don't necessarily have to understand the Bible unless you
- 8:13Speaker 1: really want to be more like Christ. Amen. So when
- 8:18Speaker 1: a proud person receives punishment, we said that, and verse thirteen,
- 8:21Speaker 1: if you refuse to listen when poor people, we've already
- 8:24Speaker 1: did that. So we're trying to get to fifteen or
- 8:26Speaker 1: on verse fourteen. If someone is angry with you, give
- 8:30Speaker 1: him a gift, secretly, a secret bribe will make him quiet,
- 8:35Speaker 1: even if he is very angry. We're not just talking
- 8:41Speaker 1: about physical gifts, right, and said, you don't know when
- 8:44Speaker 1: somebody is going through a period of time where they
- 8:50Speaker 1: don't understand their anger, they don't understand how to channel
- 8:55Speaker 1: the anger, and they verbally get aggressive. It's hard to
- 9:04Speaker 1: not backlash. But sometimes people just need people there that
- 9:09Speaker 1: are present and will listen to them. And when we
- 9:15Speaker 1: get into verse fifteen, and we're going to close out
- 9:17Speaker 1: when there's justice, righteous people are happy, but wicked people
- 9:22Speaker 1: are afraid. And it says in the Bible so many times,
- 9:25Speaker 1: and we're going to go ahead and close out with this.
- 9:27Speaker 1: I loved Proverbs chapter twenty one. It says so many
- 9:31Speaker 1: times in the Bible, do not be afraid. I wonder
- 9:34Speaker 1: why it says it repeatedly. And being able to focus
- 9:41Speaker 1: more on the Lord and not be afraid, lean on
- 9:45Speaker 1: his understanding, lean on his consciousness, putting on that armor
- 9:50Speaker 1: of God is a lot more obtainable than people think.
- 9:56Speaker 1: It's easy to go off your own judgment. It's easy
- 9:59Speaker 1: to go off of your experience when it comes to relationships, jobs,
- 10:06Speaker 1: meeting new friends. And what I've encountered is trust issues.
- 10:13Speaker 1: And like I've stated in the beginning of this podcast
- 10:17Speaker 1: or towards the middle, is that how can you receive
- 10:20Speaker 1: trust if you don't give it. You have to be
- 10:27Speaker 1: able to trust the Lord, of course, but you have
- 10:33Speaker 1: to be able to also trust people. And if they
- 10:36Speaker 1: let you down, just know that as a believer and
- 10:40Speaker 1: follower of Christ, there's forgiveness. You have to be able
- 10:44Speaker 1: to forgive others that mis lead or misuse your trust.
- 10:50Speaker 1: Because people are gonna let you down, it's just irrelevant.
- 10:55Speaker 1: It's how you react to it, being able to realize
- 10:59Speaker 1: that you gave it your best, you gave it your all.
- 11:02Speaker 1: When it comes to trusting someone and being able to
- 11:10Speaker 1: continue after being hurt, to understand that there's so much
- 11:17Speaker 1: more to learn. You have to be teachable, and I
- 11:21Speaker 1: wanna take this time for anybody that's listening. If you
- 11:26Speaker 1: have not accepted Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior,
- 11:29Speaker 1: you have this opportunity. You have this opportunity right now.
- 11:33Speaker 1: All you have to do is repeat after me, Lord
- 11:37Speaker 1: Father that arts in heaven. I come to you in prayer,
- 11:44Speaker 1: and I ask you to be my Lord and savior,
- 11:49Speaker 1: and forgive me of my sins. Forgive me for everything
- 11:54Speaker 1: that I have done illingly intentionally towards you. Help the
- 12:01Speaker 1: Holy Spirit be able to come into my heart, help
- 12:04Speaker 1: me be able to learn more about you and your
- 12:08Speaker 1: consciousness continue to live in my heart. In the Lord
- 12:15Speaker 1: Jesus Christ's name, I pray a men, and it's different prayers.
- 12:20Speaker 1: And you don't necessarily have to say that word for
- 12:24Speaker 1: word like I say to it in the beginning of
- 12:27Speaker 1: this episode. This is a lot of the Holy Spirit,
- 12:30Speaker 1: This is a lot of my spirit. This is a
- 12:32Speaker 1: lot of preaching. This is a lot of teaching. I
- 12:35Speaker 1: like to put it all into one, like you know
- 12:38Speaker 1: how you have that three and one three all in one,
- 12:43Speaker 1: you know, that's kind of what this is. And I truly,
- 12:49Speaker 1: from the bottom of my heart, love being able to
- 12:52Speaker 1: do these episodes because I used to have I used
- 12:59Speaker 1: to have plenty of other episodes that do not glorify God.
- 13:03Speaker 1: And God knows. God knows what I've been through. God
- 13:06Speaker 1: knows what I've done, and to be able to be
- 13:11Speaker 1: on the other side of the fence is more than
- 13:15Speaker 1: just a blessing. I can be a blessing instead of
- 13:21Speaker 1: just receiving salvation. And there's a difference having this love
- 13:28Speaker 1: that could be it overflows, is having that ability to
- 13:32Speaker 1: be have it not be all about me, and in result,
- 13:38Speaker 1: I get rewarded heavenly and a lot of those and
- 13:43Speaker 1: a lot of those rewards and inheritance can be brought
- 13:46Speaker 1: down from heaven when God really sees that you are
- 13:49Speaker 1: open and willing to do His will and allow the
- 13:55Speaker 1: Holy Spirit to be able to dwell in you and
- 14:00Speaker 1: prevail in you. And either are so many other names
- 14:03Speaker 1: that I can say that that really measure up to
- 14:07Speaker 1: how the Holy Spirit can be able to work through you.
- 14:12Speaker 1: It's so easy to be an example of what not
- 14:15Speaker 1: to be in this world. It's everywhere you look but
- 14:20Speaker 1: I want to make this clear. I am nowhere near
- 14:23Speaker 1: as perfect, but I serve a God that is, and
- 14:32Speaker 1: allowing that relationship with Jesus and having that Holy Spirit
- 14:36Speaker 1: do what I cannot do has been a wonderful journey,
- 14:40Speaker 1: and I have no regrets for even the wrong I've done,
- 14:43Speaker 1: because now I know what not to do. Thank you
