  Speaker 3: Sometimes we lose ourselves.

• 5:03
  Speaker 2: you've had it easy, please come and caught so for us,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: But you there have been times when you have felt, ah,
• 5:10

• 5:13
  Speaker 2: are a lot of responsibilities. How do you see it now?

  Speaker 4: It?
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: Choketh? She said, we can't breathe you see, But let
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: me tell you something that I have understood.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: If I think I was talking with my friend a
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: few days ago, and where you have been ourselves there
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: was a time in our lives where I was married,
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: though at that time she was not yet married, and
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: we used to go to the gym every five years.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: She says, she knows this, she knows the story. Five
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: years she'll drive to my house. She'll call me, I'm
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: at your gate. Our commers she went back and will
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: go and work out. In that time, at that time,
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: we thought we were overwit.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Do you understand?
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: Do you know that kind of you think you'd say, ha,
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: I need to then two days ago me, three days
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: ago I went to her shore by the way. She
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: she made this fantastic confer for me. She's been making
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: my office for the whole of the conference. Im'm not
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: looking cute. I'm telling you, where is she?
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: My friend? Stand up smaller and let them just see you.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: The biggest, baddest fashion designer that ever lived.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: Motifs, motives.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you that my scared yesterday that was going
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: to sweep the whole of Plateau.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: So you see, get friends that have sinse. I'm not joking. Though.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: You heard Apostle say something about Su Sue Johannada. He said,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: be mindful of those people that will give you at
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: her don't be choosing friends based on the flesh. But
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: let God actually lead you, and when he leads you
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: do what is necessary to her friends. Okay, So I
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: just thought to say that, so this we're advising us
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: that we're laughing at ourselves. She measured me and I
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: couldn't believe that that was my size. I said, no,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: she should the tape a measure taking as you turn't
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: it that measure?
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: And I say, I'm taps. So that time when we're
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: working out what were we doing?
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: But I'm just saying this to say you can't feel
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: overwhelmed as a single then when you get into marriage,
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: you're like, take me back to those times when I
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: thought I was when I thought that I am suffering
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: like some I'm sorry, it's not like we're trying to
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: make fun of you.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: But sometimes when single ladies come and.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Mama, I'm going through a lot, and a lot is
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: going through me.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: I'm stress and what's the stress? Walk? Are you come back?
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: Are you boiling on me? And you're good? Nobody's asking you, mommy,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: while were we cook today?
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: Ah?
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: But I can tell you this, in either spell of life,
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: you can get burnt out. You can't lose yourself trying
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: to become everything that everybody needs, even if you are single.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: They are family responsibilities. Your family expects things of you,
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: your church expects things of you. Maybe you're trying to
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: run a business or you're even working their expectations, and
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: you can lose yourself and get burnt out. So before
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: we get your questions and want person me me to
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: talk to us a little bit about what it means
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: for you to experience burnout. And a lot of women
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: are burnt out. There is nothing left to give, there
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: is nothing left to offer. You are not running on
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: e your tank is dry, and you are just showing
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: up every single day, just pushing and pushing.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: You are beginning to be irritated. You are irritable.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: You are shouting at people that shouldn't be shouted, or
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: little matters are ticking you off. You are beginning to
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: say things like I am tired, and the tired it's
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: not physical tiredness. You sleep, you wake up and the
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: first thing that comes out yes sad tightness of the soul.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: You wake up and the first thing that comes out
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: of your mouth is a sigh. Every single day is
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: like here.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: We go again.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: So I feel like I feel led for us to
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: talk about this first, because the life we are living
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: now is not the life God intended, because we are
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: not approaching it the way He intends us to approach it.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: So much from your wealth of experience, you are a
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: high intensity individual. What that means is your life is intense.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: But I've also seen you so at ease intention. So
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: I want you to speak to us, and then as
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: she speaks, I believe the conversation will go both ways
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: like this, We'll just speak as the Lord you know,
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: gives us utterance, and I pray that that will bless you.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: I am I late concerning this matter. I want to
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: us talk about so please ye bless us.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: Thank you so much.
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: Please let me celebrate a man of God. Please please,
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: you can you can do that better and if you're
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: doing that, please don't do it or your seats. Please
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: please let me celebrator. Please, thank you, thank you, thank
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: you so much, and thank you for this breakout session.
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: You know, for every conference. Let please sit down. Thank
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: you for conferences, ladies. I always look out for, you know,
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: the breakouts, because sometimes you feel that you your needs
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: have been met until you ask somebody acting a question
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: that you did not never, you didn't think about it
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: is when you now aid that question that you're.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: Like, oh my god, out come. I didn't even think
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: in this line.
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: Why Because the answer to a problem you have refused
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: to identify is now being answered. And that is one
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: thing I know is going to happen to a lot
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: of people here, because there's a way you can, you know,
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: go on in life that you don't even have questions,
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: not that you're not supposed to have questions, but because
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: you're not, you've not you've not identified many things. But
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: when you hearing people talking, you're in a conversation, you're
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: getting lights.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: You're getting light.
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: And I know that in this conversation this afternoon, everyone
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: will get lights in Jesus name, I needed.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: To say that. Heeman like you understand it? Amen? All right?
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: So I had the question of run out. Hmmm, let
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: me start by sharing something that happened to me.
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: I was it early this year or last year? Yes?
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: So I decided that I was going to go of
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: work of ministry for a few weeks, right, So I
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: left a buja, you know, just traveled somewhere of course
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: with the kids again, you know, but it was just
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: me and them.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I don't want to court you. But did
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: you hear something she said?
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: So? Remember the intention was to rest because I saw
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: that I was getting to a point where.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: No, you know, when you've when you've.
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: Done something over and over and over and over and
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: over and over again, and you get to a point
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: where it looks like you're being triggered by everything around you.
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: It's a pointed to the fact that there's something wrong.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: Keyword trigger. God.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Right, So because these are the things that will form
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: your questions trig God, that one is the whole master class.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: But let me tell you, Sorry, man, we're going to
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: organize something.
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: We're going to hook pastop me me who can't we?
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: That you was to achieve me? Try as well? Go
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: so who you won't we?
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: You know, it's like, so instead of saying hook who
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: can't we?
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: We will hook past on Mimi because.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: There is a lot that we need to draw and
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: we won't come with small stroke you know, that smoothie
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: stroke at sequin. So just padma, because this thing on trigger,
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: we need to talk on that.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: Yes, so she says something about trigger.
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: Okay, before I continue my story, I want to quickly
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: break trigger down.
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: So when you begin to see that you're becoming emotionally,
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: you're responding emotionally to the things that you don't normally
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: respond emotionally to, it tells you that there's something wrong.
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: For instance, women that are married and have children. Yeh,
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: normally you know is cut out ther house. You're not
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: really let them play, and then all of a sudden
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: they're doing their play and you're like.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: Start it, what's going on?
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: You know?
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: It will take you. If I sound, if you say.
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: That you're you're beginning to respond in certain ways that
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: that is not you.
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: Now it is different. If that is.
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: You, you understand you are the shouting type. Lady, if
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: you if you if you talk again. Now, these are
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: these are things that we hardly to talk about because
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: many times we feel like, okay, it's renting and I'm
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: just trying to decide, you know, discipline them. But you
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: can be doing doing it wrongly, let me not, let
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: me not. In fact, I don't want to be distracted. Okay.
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: But all right, So when you say that you're doing
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: certain things that that's not you. You're shouting, you're yelling, or
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: maybe you're withdrawing. For some people, you know that that
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: sets for them, they just become extremely quiet.
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: You know, they can be in the house or yet
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: they're isolated.
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: There are people around them, but somehow they don't just
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: find the things they used to find interesting to do
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: no longer interested.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: And they're not depressed. There's a difference, they're not.
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: So people respond differently, you know, to situations. Okay, so
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: talking about being triggered, you can once you see that
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: you are responding in a way that you don't respond normally,
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: it can be a pointer to the fact that there's
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: something wrong.
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: All right, So back to my story.
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: So I said, all right, I was gonna take some
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: time off, you know.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: Just go and rest.
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: Then the first week I discovered that I will wake
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: up and.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: It felt like I did not sleep.
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: All right the first day, the second day, the todd day,
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: and I started seeing myself asking the Lord, Lord, when
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: I want to sleep. I'm now saying, Lord, give me rests,
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: let me sleep. I don't want to wake up, and
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: I'm feeling tired. I'm feeling exhausted when it's not like
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: I'm working while sleeping at Is there any body that
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: I experienced that year before.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: Now, if you're a very active person.
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: Now, I was in a conversation with a number of
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: pastor's wife We had a retreat last month. Then when
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: I shared this one of them, I said something, and
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: I'm going to say it now. She said, what I experienced.
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: She experienced it, and she had to take a break
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: from work for about a year. Yes, Now, this was
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: the reason she started her career very early in life.
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: So from the age of eighteen to a mid twenties,
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: she kept.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Going and going and going and going, and.
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: And then time came that emotionally, psychologically, spiritually, physically, it just.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: Felt like she can't continue.
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: More so, she was away from her career for even
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: more than a year because she needed to rest.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: Now, let me say something to you. Rest is spiritual.
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: But please repeat it is spiritual.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: And somebody is thinking right now that okay, give us,
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: I will give you. Now.
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: You'll remember when Jesus and the disciples, you know, wearing
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: the boat and there was drama. The scripture recorded that
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: Jesus was sleeping. Now listen, Nod was sleeping. His head
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: was on a pillow. That tells you they kind of
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: sleep that you are sleeping. Ah, that you have a
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: pillow and when people around you are shouting, you did
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: not even yet until they came and say, ah, what's
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: going on?
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: Do you want us to perish? Tells you that Jesus
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: wasn't a deep sleep.
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: Now African mindset, the way you were brought up, this
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: is functionality, you know over our background.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: Tells you that if you take some type off, you
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: are lazy.
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: Tells you that if you're not going over and over
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: and over and over again, you are now ambitious.
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: Tells you that.
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: The what is what we can equate to your success
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: is the grind, not even that's the word.
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: I'm looking for air.
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: Why I'm here to tell you that also is not
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: of God. Now listen to me, because listen, God wants
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: you to function from rests and rest is not just
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: about I want to sleep. No, rest should be in
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: every aspect of your life, parenting, marriage, your spiritual life,
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: your emotional life, your psychological life, your mental health. You
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: should be able to function from rest. I know somebody
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: is getting helped. Now, why why is it that when
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: you feel tired and you want to sleep, you hear
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: the voice of your mother?
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: What are you doing?
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: What?
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: Many of this Why are you sleeping at ten o'clock?
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: Who marry you? Why don't you? Ah?
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: And then you now believe that it is wrong for
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: you to sleep.
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: You on your bed by eight o'clock. Now please please
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: listen and then don't.
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: But there are times when you need to stay on
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: that bed even when sleep is not coming.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: Stay.
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: Yes, your children ask you, call me, what are you doing?
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: I am resting, mommy wants to I am resting, mommy.
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: I am so back to my story?
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: WHOA so we celebrate already?
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: Yes, so I discovered that, you know, the first day,
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: the second I will sleep, awake up. This is not
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: me such they ask God for rest. In fact, till
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: the second week. Remember I took three weeks off. It
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: was after the circle with sleeping and feeling like, yes,
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: you know, so what happened to me? I've gone over
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: and over and over and over again doing things, you know, activities,
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: doing without resting. And there's a way you can be doing.
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: You can be active and you're making things upon that
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: you're not even seeing yourself. You're not seeing the work
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: you're doing because if a visionary person, it is like
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: that you're not saying you just want.
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: To make things happen.
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: And the extreme is that you won't work in thanksgiving
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: to God because if you're a goal setter and you
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: want to meet your goal, you want to you know.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: You're doing things.
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: You're doing that, you're doing that the next thing that
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: is coming to your head after you've achieved one is
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: what is the next project?
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: And if he's not taking you are lost in that
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: completely that you're not even seeing what God is doing.
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: And that brings me to the fact.
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: That one one, one one tool, let me call it
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: tool you know not to be drined is Thanksgiving.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: I'm going to explain Thanksgiving.
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: I wish I can get please, I can get something
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: to write so that we go back to this my.
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: Yes, thank you.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Ah, we are blessed, we are, we are, we are
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: very much.
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: So what is one thing you should not forget? Did you?
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: She just mentioned this fighter key? Okay, uh huh, and
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: she's going to break it down just now.
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: Okay, So you know, Thanksgiving and how do you come
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: to a point of tens giving.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: Sorry, I'm a coach, so I like to.
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: You know, you know I said something earlier that you
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: can be going over and over and over and over again.
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: And then if you're a visionary person, you're not looking back.
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: You're always saying, what is the nexting, what's the next? Why,
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: because you're not taking time to reflect. That reflection is
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: not just about just sitting down and now thinking. You know,
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: I had to tell somebody a few days ago about
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: the difference between meditation and overthinking. Yes, some of you think,
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: oh lady, what you're doing. You're overthinking it. You cannot
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: was your thoughts. It is not plus God is overthinking.
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: Once your thought is plus God, you are meditating. Let
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: me explain. Overthinking is you're thinking about your problems, You're
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: thinking about somebody that hurts you, you're being paranoid some
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: things that do not happen. You're thinking. You're thinking, just
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: trying to, you know, collaborate many things together. But if
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: I sit down and I'm reflecting on what God has
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: done for me, where I am, where I'm going, the visionary,
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: the things I've been able to accomplish, what am I
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: doing at that point, I am meditating and not just
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: doing that alone, but also with the world of God.
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: Now, in meditating, you would be able to see the areas.
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: You ought to pay more attention to. And the heroes
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: you ought not to pay attention to please. You have
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: to follow me very well to get to be able
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: to you know, get all of this together. Because one
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: thing I've seen a lot of time about women especially
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: is that we you, we refuse to set our powerities right.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: Depend we ref you to set our powerities right.
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: Yes, so you believe that many of the things you're
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: doing need your attention to life, it's a lie, huh.
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: So One.
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: Two that will help is that every day have it
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: to do lists. What are the things you have to achieve?
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: What are things you have to do? And your to
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: do list right, the most the most important, three most important,
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: write it out. If you can sort those three that day,
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: you're fine. Now back to priorities. Many times you're not
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: setting a priorities right.
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: And priorities comes in seasons.
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: Somebody says seasons seasons so you can be in a season.
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: For instance, let's say let's say married, a married woman
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: who has four kids. You can be in a season
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: where maybe the children are very little. Of course at
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: that point they need they need more of your attention. Yes, Now,
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: you will be wrong if your kids are not part
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: of your poity in that season because you are your
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: number one caregiver.
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: Yes, I'm just trying to you know.
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, people, you're the number one caregiver for you in
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: the season you're in.
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: What is what? Maybe for you?
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: What is most What is the highest powage to you
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: right now is your career. You'll be wrong if you're
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: trying to carry other things at the same level with
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: your career. Wow, it's somebody understanding.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: When I'm yes, people are looking at me like we
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: are understanding and we know we must lean. Okay, we
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: must lean to set our powerities right, not the things
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: that requires your attention. And talking about attention, there are
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: some things that requires your attention immediately.
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: There's some things that requires your attention later. It's not
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: you can be everywhere at the same time. Yes, I
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: think one of the maybe not for everybody, but I've
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: seen it in a lot of women of God, especially,
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: you know, is wanting to do everything by ourselves and
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: not wanting.
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: To delegate many because.
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: You feel if I add them to they won't be
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: able to let them do it. They will only get
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: trained when they learn by practicing.
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: Are you getsing me?
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: If you have people around you, you can get certain
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: things to delegated and supervise.
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: You shouldn't carry everything all at the same time.
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: All right, So let's learn to set our priorities right,
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: What are the things that are of I ask poority
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: to you?
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: Now? What are the things that require us more of
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: your attention? Now?
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: Once you can say to that, things becomes more easier.
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: See God, God is not auto of confusion, and it's
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: not created to be confused. The issue is that you're
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: not spending much time to reflect, to meditate, to organize
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: your life. If you're not organ nice, you'll be drinked. Yes,
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: you can't say yes to everybody. You can't be everywhere
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: at the same time. They see what is happening to
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: most people is that, you know they want to please everyone. Yes,
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: you can't please everybody. They're not You're not You're not
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: ice cream even ice cream. It's not everybody that likes
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: ice cream. People say, what is that thing that you
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: feel like? It's general that everybody likes rice. Not everybody
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: eats rice.
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: Eh. Money, Oh, let me shock you.
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: There are people that don't like money. Oh tell you
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: that money is vanity. What I respond to them is like, okay,
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: don't choose your vanity. So your vanity if your vanity
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: is poverty, fine, if.
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: Your vanity is all right.
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: So you can't be everywhere at the same time. You
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: can't do everything at the same time. Forget about I
• 27:44
  Speaker 4: want to be.
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: Super.
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: I want you are only You can only function where
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: God has placed you.
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: Yes, you can only function when God has placed you.
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: And if God has entrusted certain things into your hands,
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: know when you ought to do them.
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: Because I know I'm mapping somebody.
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: You're not the sound of my voice, Yes you are,
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: because there is a way. Oh maybe you're receiving instruction instructure,
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: and you got ask me to do this. But what
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: you're not asking God for is when do you want
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: me to do this? When do you want me to
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: do that? When you receive an instruction from God, don't
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: just take it and run. Stay, get more clarity because
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: God can give you an instruction now, but he's not
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: asking you to execute it now.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: He's waiting.
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: He's telling you this is not a season yet, because
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: sometimes you think you have the capacity to handle.
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: Some things or you're not grown yes into that stage. Ah.
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: Another thing.
• 28:49
  Speaker 4: I want to mention theze a lot, but I don't
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: want to I think I spent a lot of time already.
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: Talking on this many times.
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: Our problem, the reason why we get drined, is that
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: we compare ourselves with all the people. The scripture says
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: that either compare themselves with others are not wise. It
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: means that once you get to the corner of comparison,
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: you are a fool.
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: I did not say. The scripture says, yes, it's word,
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: not ours. So you're not comparing yourself with another person.
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: Okay, for instance, Oh you see, I think now every
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: young lady you know as an engine, now.
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: You mean this one. I'm running an engine and you
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: and you and it is beautiful. So who are beauty?
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: Very beautiful? But you because our friends are running? Angie,
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: you do want to run, and you.
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: Not because God asks you to do it. Another thing
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: that's very rampants now is podcasts.
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: Yes, they might have costs, because everybody has to say
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: my two cents on this matter.
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: Podcast podcast you have not even you're not even eating.
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: You're looking for money to buy myc and set up
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: your studio like you're in the UK. And Hi, you know,
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: I'm not trying to, you know, pull all.
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: Of these things down.
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: They're beautiful but what I'm saying is that you most
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: know what God is asking you to do in every season,
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: because if God has instructed you to do it, it
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: won't drain you.
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: Once you are drained, you're doing something wrong, fantastic. Can
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: you celebrate person, Mimi? You're paston writing that's a can
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: you celebrate person Mimi?
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: You see? Mm hmm.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: This is so broad. It's very broad. I understand. I
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: understand how broad it is. Or you know what, sometimes,
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: even in trying to get things fixed, we must be
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: mindful not to also overwhelm us in the process of.
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: Positive change, because even.
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: Implementing change can be overwhelming when you want to do
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: so many things at the same time.
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: I can I say something yes? Do you know that
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: it can be a trauma response exactly when you feel okay?
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: Maybe, for instance, you grew up in a family where
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: they always wanted to do, to do, to do most,
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: especially for false daughters, first daughters. Then in the house
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: glory bits Us is the name of Gesus. You know
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: you came into responsibility, Ellie. You know you started you're
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: you're responsible for other people, Elie, And then every season
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: of your life you want to keep the energy I'm like,
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: calm down. There are certain things that will feel like, oh,
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: you know, it's just my life. I'm just trying to
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: do this. I'm just trying to And you don't know
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: that you are responding to trauma.
• 32:01
  Speaker 5: This is not you.
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: You you were not made to be like this. You
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: do you know that, even you know being.
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: Giving yourself so much to personal developments can be a
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: restponse to trauma as well. Exactly why growing up they
• 32:20
  Speaker 4: always speak you down. You were never at the top
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: of the class. You're always you know, you know those
• 32:26
  Speaker 4: twenty thirds, you know you now you're raised two and
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: leaving to your report card after you'd at least you
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: can get some applaud and then they now turn the
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: paper and so that there's something wrong.
• 32:40
  Speaker 5: You.
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: Know, And then you now grew up to that person
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: that always want to do, always want to do. You're
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: taking several courses, some that are not even related to
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: your career, all because.
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: You feel, oh, I want to just develop myself. But
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: you might be wrong.
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: It might be that you're responding to trauma that you
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: have refused to recognize.
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: But somebody is recognizing.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: Today, glory, Yes, someone is recognizing today. I've said that
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: to say, the concept of what we're trying to talk
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: about concerning burnout is a lot.
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: But what you have already heard is enough.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: For this season, because somebody has already say, no, person,
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: we give us the fifty eight laws to.
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: Do you understand fifty eight keys?
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: Give us the fifty eighth or the one hundred keys
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: to coming out of burnout because it is broad and
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: it is wide, depending on even the kind of burnout
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: you're experiencing. But the people tell things that she has said,
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: do and work with them. You see, a lot of
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: us have a if we have information hunger insearchable. You
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: can't be citiated by any level of nonage.
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: Do you know why? Because you're not implementing anything you've heard.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: So you are consistently running after the next revelation, the
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: next I'm going for the next conference, the next workshop,
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: I'm tending the next webinar. Like she said, courses upon courses,
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: gathering the certificates.
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: The reason, and it's like you just want more. I
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: want to learn more. I want to learn more.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: Nothing has changed in your life because you have not
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: implemented anything. I have seen that some of the most
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: highly effective people are the people that take one to
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: three things, master it, implement it and consolidated in their lives.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: And then when they are done with that and they're
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: become a master in that aspect, they now go for
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: the next thing. But a lot of us you even
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: get burnt out on the road to personal development because
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: you want to revamp your entire life in one month.
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: You say the great lockdown. I am locking myself down
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: for one month. And in this one month, I'm going
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: to change my parents. I'm going to lose fifty kg.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: I'm going to lose a yeah, I'm going to change
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: my color. I'm going to establish my business. I'm going
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: to write my book.
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: I'm going to in one month.
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: Like she said, you have no capacity, You've not built capacity.
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: Then you start, then after two weeks nothing as Then
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: you get frustrated or you get overwhelmed. You know, you
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: normally wake up at twelfth naturally twelve in in the afternoon.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: Then you now say money routine. Four am.
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: I will get up, I will walk out. You'll finished
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: watching YouTube video. I will walk out for one hour.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: I will drink hot lemon tea without honey. I will
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: do Bible study for three hours. Meanwhile, you had the
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: kind I wake up the morning and does plus Jesus
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: might not sertain and and go about your day. Yes,
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: you now want because you saw somebody do it, and
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: then you want to do that. I'm going to get up,
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: I'm going to read a book in a week. Meanwhile,
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: you know, the only book you read is your bank statement,
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: and even you even read it online. And then you
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: start and then you get burnt out by trying to
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: even improve. And like she said, are you even trying
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: to improve because you need it or you understand it,
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: or you're trying to improve as a trauma response because
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: you need to be good enough to get the applause
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: of the people around you, the validation from the public.
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: You know, when you hear people say, ah, this person speaks.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: Wisdom, because you want the accolades, that's also a trauma response,
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: you see. So on this matter of being burnt out,
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: person mem says some people to all things, I want
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: to just point out in case you missed it, because
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: some of you I think you were just you were
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: just struck by her beauty and you.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: Just didn't even know her. And she's talking like a.
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: Please, these are serious matters, you see, She spoke about Thanksgiving,
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: and that's one thing I think in the past year.
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: God also had to deal with me on because I
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: am we move, we get things done.
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: And I had to understand that it was because of
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: my placement in my family that made me such a person.
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: I'm also a first daughter, and I started life early.
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: I started working early. I was engaged with work early.
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: So I have been on the first lane for most
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: of my life.
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: If our childhood waited to be childhood, we played small
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: and we had to grow up, you see.
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: So I just started to feel like God was not
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: faithful to me.
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: Because I was not taking out time to actually sit
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: in Thanksgiving and see God's work because I was so
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: consumed by the next project. And what that does is
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: it never gives you a sense of accomplishment. You always
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: feel like I'm not done, I'm not ready, I'm not prepared,
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: I have nothing to offer yet. I've not lean enough,
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: I've not grown enough, I've not reason. It starts your enough, Oh,
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: I don't have enough money, my business has not grown yet.
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: This and this and this.
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: Then you then ingratitude creeps in and the devil takes
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: advantage and starts to make you question if God is
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: God in your life, and have you noticed that that
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: is the time that your social media algorithm partners with
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: the devil.
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: They run a partnership. You open and as someone said, last.
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: Year, I started this NGO and by this year we
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: are in six countries. And in this one year, I
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: have bought a house in Eco. Ye I have done this,
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: I have done that.
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: Which is not always true. It's not always true.
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: You see, and then you sit down and you're like, no,
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: I have to push harder or even see those who
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: they are not portraying soft life, but they are portraying
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: hustle culture.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: And then they're like, I have marketed my business and
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: then from this small shop in the back of my house,
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: now I have three branches.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: And then and then you too, you not start saying
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: no project, project, and you cannot see that you are
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: not where you were last year, but you.
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: Could not see the handwriting on the world. You could
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: not see the progress.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: Have you ever been such a person where other people
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: are saying wow, and you don't know what they are
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: wowing about, where people are saying things about you not
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: you know. Sometimes it's not only gossip. When someone says
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: or lies about you. But sometimes people are saying the truth.
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: You are a good person, You are capable, You are
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: and you can't see it because you are waiting to become.
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: You are working, all right. So thanksgiving and thanksgiving is
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: an art.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: It's not just thank you for that, for waking us
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: of this morning, thank you for food on our table,
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: thank you for close on our back.
• 40:27
  Speaker 4: No.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: In fact, sometimes thanksgiving is silence and just looking intently
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: and seeing.
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: Can you not see this?
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: There's a song that says, see how far you brought me?
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: That song is a song of introspection. You have seen
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: and now you're communicating to God that, ah, look at
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: what you've done. So in the area of burnout, my
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: sisters practice thanksgiving, practice thanksgiving, rather than being so occupied
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: all the time with accomplishing and being and becoming, practice thanksgiving.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: And I noticed that thanksgiving fails you actually to do
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: and to be more. I was speaking to someone recently
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: and she was just going on and on about her business,
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: and from the outside, I said, can you not see
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: you were complaining about this a few years ago. It's
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: no longer a complain. You were going through this struggle
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: in your business. You didn't you can't see now it's
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: not a problem. You didn't have staff, now you have
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: too much. You're rejecting. You didn't have clients. You were
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: asking for clients, Now they are too much. You're trying
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: to close an arm of the business because you can't
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: meet up. But what happened that she could not see?
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: Instead she was focused on one thing. Meanwhile, a year ago,
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: you had.
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: A plethora of problems. So learn to be thankful.
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: Practice thanksgiving, not just that major moments and what your
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: churche says is Thanksgiving service, but every day. I learned
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: that from my husband. The first thing that comes out
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: of his mouth time he wakes up this thank you Jesus.
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: And then one day I was like, it's okay, we
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: know you're thankful. And I thought it was cliche, but
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: sometimes you just see that then you smile and then
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: you say thank you Jesus.
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: And the later on.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: So that this man is chopping life and I'm just here,
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: moving and moving and moving. But I started to practice
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: it too, and I noticed that I wasn't as frustrated
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: at life.
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: Well did that, bless you did that?
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: Bless you fantastically celebrate first on med me for that,
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: I have a question that I want to ask, and
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: this one is about, you know, on this matter of.
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: Rest.
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: Some people feel rest means they're able to afford to
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: check into a hotel.
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: Vacation beach, spa day.
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: Where bedding suit and sit in front of water, position tripod,
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: stand and phone, do small videos of them walking out
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: of the water like Mumi water, you know, And if
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: they can't afford that, that means they can't rest. They've
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: defined rest from what they can see on social media
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: as rest, and for some it's not a luxury they
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: can afford. Yet, how does a woman rest? We are
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: having to break the bank and what does rest actually?
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: You know, because rest is not just sleeping. She said
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: something she was sleeping. You're not doing anything like that.
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: But you would sleep and wake up tired. It has
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: happened to me before several times. I will elong get
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: sleep and I will wake up exhausted, more tired than
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: I went a bit.
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: So how do we be disrested? People don't want to
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: rest it.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: So how do we rest so that we can avoid
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: getting overwhelmed or getting burnt out? How do we rest
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: without having to spend millions of narror? With what we
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: have available as our resources. What can we do to rest?
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: Thank you so much? Fastive.
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: Okay, So rest is in different forms and different areas
• 44:45
  Speaker 4: of our life.
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: For some people, the kind of.
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: Rest they need is bodily rest. Like your stressed. Your
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: body is stressed. Your body is crying and telling you.
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: You have to rest. Why. For some people, what they
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: need is which arrests.
• 45:02
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: For some is emotional rests.
• 45:05
  Speaker 4: You know, the people around it are draining you emotionally,
• 45:09
  Speaker 4: maybe your partner, or maybe the children, or maybe your
• 45:14
  Speaker 4: boss at work.
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: Is just a lot why, you know? For some it
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: is a combination of different things.
• 45:21
  Speaker 4: Okay, Now, the thing is that everything the spiritual controls
• 45:25
  Speaker 4: the physical. And I believe that as believers, once you
• 45:30
  Speaker 4: can get the spiritual right, every other.
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: Things faced in line. It's plenty.
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: Every other thing for us in line once against the
• 45:45
  Speaker 4: spiritual right. Now, let's say, for instance, okay, let me
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: ask this question, have you been bothered so much? Like
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: it feels like you're at stroubled and you cannot.
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: Pinpoint what you're troubled about? Number one? Number two?
• 46:13
  Speaker 4: Have you had times when maybe you're in a conversation
• 46:17
  Speaker 4: with somebody, or you're going to a location or you're
• 46:22
  Speaker 4: about to do something and your art is troubled. Okay,
• 46:27
  Speaker 4: maybe this will help you better. Anybody, have you done
• 46:34
  Speaker 4: presentation in secondary school? Primary school? Before answer me? Have
• 46:41
  Speaker 4: you about experienced this when you're about to when it's
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: time to face the crowd, your stomach staring all of
• 46:51
  Speaker 4: a sudden, like your stomach, where is my why? What
• 46:55
  Speaker 4: is going on right now? You're anxious? Some people have
• 46:59
  Speaker 4: to even use it, and then your physical body begins
• 47:01
  Speaker 4: to rest fund to how you feel. That tells you
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: that your mind is connected to your body. That's right,
• 47:08
  Speaker 4: everything is connected together. In fact, sicknesses that it's not
• 47:15
  Speaker 4: it's not a matter of oh you ete this song,
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: that's why this happened.
• 47:18
  Speaker 3: Or whatever it is.
• 47:20
  Speaker 4: Emotional thing, a sickness there is that has you know,
• 47:24
  Speaker 4: come up from an emotional distress or trauma or something
• 47:28
  Speaker 4: that somebody Now there's this beautiful woman online them just
• 47:33
  Speaker 4: quickly share this before I continue. So at that time,
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: they discovered cancer on her shoulders, shoulders, and then yes,
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: and she battled it for many years. What she didn't
• 47:47
  Speaker 4: know was the fact that she was carrying an emotional
• 47:51
  Speaker 4: distress on her shoulders.
• 47:54
  Speaker 3: It was a marital thing.
• 47:55
  Speaker 4: Oh, and do you know that it was when she
• 47:59
  Speaker 4: left the marriae that she was illed from that completely?
• 48:04
  Speaker 4: That's on if I another example just popped out of
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: my head. Now maybe you guys have even seen the
• 48:08
  Speaker 4: interview before. All right, so one of the former presidents
• 48:13
  Speaker 4: of this country, the wife you know, had an interview
• 48:17
  Speaker 4: and you know the hacciner, How was your experience this one?
• 48:22
  Speaker 4: And then she was like, do you know that it
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: was when the left power that her health became better?
• 48:31
  Speaker 4: Why am I sharing all of this? Sometimes you have
• 48:34
  Speaker 4: refused to identify where the problem is coming from. And
• 48:41
  Speaker 4: there is a way you will go to. You will
• 48:44
  Speaker 4: go to a place for the solution to your problem,
• 48:48
  Speaker 4: maybe a hospital, and what they have to offer is
• 48:52
  Speaker 4: the kind of solution that they offer. For instance, somebody
• 48:57
  Speaker 4: is taking their body the sickness is connected to the
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: emotional distress. Yes, they go to the hospital, they give
• 49:03
  Speaker 4: them medication this on that one, and they're not responding
• 49:06
  Speaker 4: to treatments.
• 49:08
  Speaker 3: Why because that is not the kind of solution they need.
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: The kind you need is that kind that will either
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: take away.
• 49:16
  Speaker 4: What is crossing your emotional distress or begin to build
• 49:20
  Speaker 4: structure around you that will make you manage the situation. Hey,
• 49:26
  Speaker 4: my God, are you guys getting me now? Rests is
• 49:31
  Speaker 4: in different aspects. Sometimes you feel like what you need
• 49:35
  Speaker 4: is bodily rest, but you don't know that what you
• 49:38
  Speaker 4: needed spiritual rests. The scripture says, do not be handshoals
• 49:42
  Speaker 4: of anything, but in everything, by prayer supplication.
• 49:47
  Speaker 3: We tense giving make.
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: Your request known. Do you know how it can be
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: so bored about things that you are looking at you
• 49:55
  Speaker 4: that why are you bored?
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: Exactly? This thing is not It doesn't even concern you.
• 49:59
  Speaker 4: That is, you're bordered about your praying, about your saying God,
• 50:03
  Speaker 4: you wake up to hell, you're praying.
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: You just are looking at you and they're saying God
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: has answered this prayer. But you're tea.
• 50:12
  Speaker 4: They are waiting for you to move from that place
• 50:15
  Speaker 4: into the nest because God has answered, and you have
• 50:18
  Speaker 4: refused to see it's because you're expecting God to answer
• 50:21
  Speaker 4: you in a certain way. He has answered the way
• 50:24
  Speaker 4: he will answer because he is good and he's not
• 50:27
  Speaker 4: going to wait for you.
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: My God, so many times you pray the wrong prayers. Yes,
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: so you're praying God, do this.
• 50:34
  Speaker 4: If you can do this for me, I'll be said
• 50:36
  Speaker 4: to me, well, what you ought to be praying about
• 50:38
  Speaker 4: his lights? Let the heights of my understanding be lighted
• 50:43
  Speaker 4: that I may see.
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: Are you saying that? So? For some people, rest can.
• 50:49
  Speaker 4: Be psychological, right, you know, it's just you're just everywhere. Now,
• 50:56
  Speaker 4: Remember I said Elier that the.
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: Spirit controls the physical.
• 50:59
  Speaker 4: Spiritual controls the If you get it right in the spirit,
• 51:02
  Speaker 4: it becomes easier.
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: That's why the.
• 51:04
  Speaker 4: Scripture says marchesister, we're sicky for the kingdom of God
• 51:07
  Speaker 4: and his righteousness and every other thing shall be heard
• 51:10
  Speaker 4: it Now, that scripture is not just talking about you
• 51:12
  Speaker 4: waking up in the money and do your devotion.
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: Mm hmm. It's not just talking about that. It's part
• 51:17
  Speaker 3: of it.
• 51:18
  Speaker 4: It's talking about putting God first in everything that you do,
• 51:23
  Speaker 4: in your reasoning, in your thinking, in your decision making.
• 51:29
  Speaker 5: See was you.
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: You once you're not setting the poorities right once? It
• 51:34
  Speaker 3: is not God first. Yes, it will not set this
• 51:42
  Speaker 3: set up, will not set up.
• 51:43
  Speaker 4: Yes, So people can be having financial distress and they went,
• 51:50
  Speaker 4: why God, you're not putting God first?
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: Are you asking him to put you first? Wow?
• 51:59
  Speaker 4: You're the one arguing about tides ten percent when what
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: is required from a believer in the New Testament. It's
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: not with ten percent is to give all. Yes, you
• 52:11
  Speaker 4: are the level of ten percent.
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: Ah. Wow.
• 52:16
  Speaker 4: Sometimes the issue is that you want to make your
• 52:19
  Speaker 4: own decisions by yourself. My God, we're at seeking God first.
• 52:25
  Speaker 4: That thing that is causing you trouble is God in it?
• 52:31
  Speaker 4: Did you start it with God? So most times we
• 52:35
  Speaker 4: are the ones giving ourselves problem because we.
• 52:39
  Speaker 3: Refuse to put God first. Ah.
• 52:45

• 53:24
  Speaker 4: even in your parents.

  Speaker 4: You know the world is turning diguitar well, you know
• 54:13
  Speaker 4: how you know that way it is that you want
• 54:14
  Speaker 4: to read your Bible as you carry your phone. Instagram notification,
• 54:20
  Speaker 4: Facebook pops up exactly that phone for three hours.
• 54:24
  Speaker 3: Yet you have not read a scripture. And that was
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: what you set up to do from the beginning. There's
• 54:29
  Speaker 3: so much destruction. Yeah, so please learn to put God
• 54:37
  Speaker 3: first and let me go. Please say this. In putting
• 54:39
  Speaker 3: God first, it's not just about acting God. Should I
• 54:42
  Speaker 3: do this? Should I do that?
• 54:44
  Speaker 4: It's about the values of God, Yes, the instructions of God.
• 54:50
  Speaker 4: What would God? What would Jesus do? In this case,
• 54:53
  Speaker 4: it's about looking at Maybe you have to to you know,
• 54:56
  Speaker 4: two options, and you're saying, I want to do this. Okay,
• 55:01
  Speaker 4: there's another option yet, which of these glory files God?
• 55:06
  Speaker 3: Which one will I go for? And I know that
• 55:09
  Speaker 3: for sure? Or I'm in line with God.
• 55:11
  Speaker 4: Yes, sometimes we are the one causing problem for ourselves
• 55:17
  Speaker 4: because we have refused to put God first. And the
• 55:20
  Speaker 4: one that goes firsts is the one results will follow.
• 55:27
  Speaker 4: If it is God first, the results you will get
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: be good. If it is you first, the results we
• 55:34
  Speaker 4: get you will get is you and you cannot You're
• 55:37
  Speaker 4: not You're not meant to be removed away from God.
• 55:40
  Speaker 4: If you remove a fish away from the sea, what
• 55:43
  Speaker 4: happens dies You're not meant to be away, you know,
• 55:49
  Speaker 4: from God. So please let us learn to put God
• 55:52
  Speaker 4: first in everything that everything.
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: That fantastically serve person many yes, I agree, hundred and
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: ten percent. You see, there's a scripture that says, casting
• 56:04
  Speaker 2: all of your cares on the Lord, because he cares
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: for you.
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: Recently, I just realized that some issues are not issues.
• 56:13
  Speaker 3: I know what's thinking about. I said, down, and now
• 56:18
  Speaker 3: that's why growth in God is important.
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: Because when you grow in God, what you're doing is
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: you are getting There's a scripture to that says, come
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: up hither. And there was a time in my life
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: not too long ago, when I was just in distress,
• 56:33
  Speaker 2: so many emotional issues happening left, right and center. It
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: was chaos, and I was just overwhelmed, and I was
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: just like God, in fact, I'm tired.
• 56:42
  Speaker 3: I don't even know what I'm going to do.
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: But if you don't sort this issue out, I'm going
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: to cave on that this pressure, this and this, and
• 56:49
  Speaker 2: then I can hearing in my spirit come up hither,
• 56:51
  Speaker 2: come up hither?
• 56:53
  Speaker 3: I was like, which hither are we coming up to again?
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: But then breaking it down.
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: That's why sometimes when the Lord puts certain things in
• 57:02
  Speaker 2: your spirit, it's important you sit down and understand what
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: he's saying. And I understood that God wanted me in
• 57:08
  Speaker 2: this season where it was like I was under immense attack.
• 57:12
  Speaker 2: I needed to go closer into Him. And as I
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: started to do that, here's what happened. The situations did
• 57:20
  Speaker 2: not change, The pressure did not get lighter. In fact,
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: it got worter, but my reaction and the power that
• 57:32
  Speaker 2: thing had on me was less. It kept getting until
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: I can't see it and laugh. The same thing that
• 57:40
  Speaker 2: would keep me weeping.
• 57:42
  Speaker 3: You know the trip crying and weeping the same thing.
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: I will keep me weeping for hours until there's no
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: tear again in my eye, I would see.
• 57:50
  Speaker 3: And now other people are angwer the ones clinging on
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: my behalf. We can't believe you're going through this. And
• 57:55
  Speaker 3: I'm like, no, I mean it's I'm like, it's fine.
• 57:59
  Speaker 3: Then I can't you you're not asking God why? You know,
• 58:01
  Speaker 3: God asking God why? And I said, and even apostle
• 58:04
  Speaker 3: mirror that same thing.
• 58:05
  Speaker 2: Yesterday I used to tell people stop asking questions you
• 58:08
  Speaker 2: don't have answers to. That is the start of depression
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: because you will keep revolving around that thing trying to
• 58:15
  Speaker 2: get an answer. And what you do is you're magnifying
• 58:17
  Speaker 2: the issue and magnifying the issue to the point that
• 58:19
  Speaker 2: the goodness of God becomes non existent. So growing God,
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: put God first as priority. And what will happen is
• 58:30
  Speaker 2: even if the situations don't change. Sometimes God is not
• 58:34
  Speaker 2: necessarily interested in changing the situation, but changing you. And
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: let what God wants to do have its perfect cause.
• 58:43
  Speaker 2: What that's how you can now offer help to others.
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: We are not helping others now because we came with
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: the help from heaven.
• 58:53
  Speaker 3: But there are things we've.
• 58:53
  Speaker 2: Gone through that has built stature us and credibility even
• 58:58
  Speaker 2: spiritually for us to help others.
• 59:00
  Speaker 3: So grow in God.
• 59:02
  Speaker 2: Put God first, and see how you build those structures
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: to rise above the people who are victorious. It doesn't
• 59:09
  Speaker 2: mean if they open up and tell you the challenge
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: is going on around them, you'll be shocked. But they
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: have built structures so much in God that they're able
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: to rise where chaos is happening, but it doesn't touch them.
• 59:22
  Speaker 3: It's happening there.
• 59:23
  Speaker 2: And then from that place of authority in God, they're
• 59:26
  Speaker 2: able to correct things here, here and here. So we
• 59:29
  Speaker 2: are burnt out sometimes because we are sitting in the chaos.
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: You are sitting there and you are trying to But
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: what God is saying is come up, Put me first,
• 59:40
  Speaker 2: Come up, Enter into Me so much so that you
• 59:44
  Speaker 2: get into that elevator place of authority, and then you
• 59:47
  Speaker 2: can direct things and direct the affairs of your life.
• 59:50
  Speaker 3: Have you been blessed? Have you learned something? Are the
• 59:54
  Speaker 3: things you wrote down?
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: Can someone just stand and tell me a word that
• 59:58
  Speaker 2: you are going to focus on as a concerns, But
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 2: just stand, yes, fable thanksgiving, Yes, Dally.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 3: Thanksgiving. Someone, just stand and just say something that you
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 3: are going to implement. You are going to rest priority
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 3: someone reflection mm hmm, perfect.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 2: To do lists. Yes, yes, you can't please everybody. What
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: function from rest to pastor Mimi, you have blessed us.
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: You can see if you can hear from their responses
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 2: they have taken something home.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 3: Please celebrate God. Can I have? What do we have?
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 3: We collected any question? So here's what we will do.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: Because it seems like it's a lot. We will take
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 3: maybe one or two. I'll go through.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 2: It will take one or two and then, like I said,
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 2: we're holding the heap of person. We misket right, Okay,
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: it's only me then, so I'm holding the hem of
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: her skids.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 3: Okay, we are Oh this is long. Okay, we've answered this. Okay,
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 3: this is a very short question that I say yes
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 3: or no answer. So I think we can take this.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: It says, as a lady, is it okay or proper
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 2: to marry someone you are older?
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 4: Dan?
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 2: Okay, you want to know, So I'll say something and
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 2: person you will round up for me on this matter?
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 2: Is it okay for a lady to marry someone she's
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 2: older than it's okay. It's not anti scripture, but there's
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 2: an addendum to it. Can you fulfill the roles of
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 2: your wife, knowing that you are older than your husband?
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 2: What does the Bible ask us to do as women
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 2: under our husband's submit? Will you submit or not say
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: I was already working when they give it to you.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 2: Can you respect him as the head of the home.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: Can you give him that honor as the one whom
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 2: God has deputies to lead and stead the ship and
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: the affairs of this hole.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 3: So don't emback on something you know you don't have
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 3: capacity for. It is okay.
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 2: I've seen people do it, and if they don't tell you,
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 2: you wouldn't know. Yes, if they don't tell you, you
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 2: will never know if you can. But make sure you
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 2: are the kind of woman that is capable of So please,
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you have anything that you know.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 3: You have to make sure that you are ready to
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 3: truly be a wife. Right, It's okay.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 4: And as she said, people don't have to know, including
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 4: your family members, they don't have to know.
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 3: More, especially if you're from a very cultural place, they
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 3: don't have to know. Thank you.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 2: Okay, this is a long one, but I feel maybe
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: we should take it. She says, you spoke about the
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 2: devil catching them young. I think that's yesterday, right, And
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 2: she said, as for me, even before I knew what
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 2: the word is, I was caught up in the acts
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 2: as early as seven eighty years old, being addicted to masturbation.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 2: As I've grown in Christ, I've had prayers fasting deliverance,
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 2: but it will go.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 3: For a while then come back. But I noticed.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 2: I have some triggers which I feel when I feel lonely, sad, stressed,
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 2: or when I'm broke. I think that she's saying, these
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 2: are the triggers now, so she's asking how do I overcome?
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: It's been over twenty years now.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 4: That's a very beautiful, a deep question. And I like
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 4: the fact that this person has recognized what the triggers are.
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 4: For the father, you've recognized your triggers, it means that
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 4: you can run from them.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 3: So the question is not how do I overcome overcome?
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 4: The question is how do I set structures in place
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 4: to make sure that I grow out of these triggers.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 4: You know, the scripture says that when you become contented,
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 4: you know that you could be broken off. Your should
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 4: it will happen, all right. So Number one, keep growing
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 4: in God. Number two, recognize more because these things that
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 4: this person have listed, they're like you know, when you
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 4: have when you're caught a orange into four and then
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 4: you have a portion, a portion of the four parts,
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 4: all right, but at.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 3: The end of the day, it orange is a whole orange. Okay,
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 3: So you have to.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 4: See that I'm recognized more. What are the other things
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 4: that serves us triggers to you?
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 3: All right? I think this person, this person mentioned loneliness.
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 4: I don't know if when she's lonely, when she's sad,
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 4: when broke, when you're sad when you're broke, all right,
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 4: So what is causing loneliness? What is causing sadness? Are
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 4: you spending more time with God? What is what is
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 4: the level of your intimacy with God? Because when we
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 4: stayed with God, we are being washed. And there's something
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 4: the world of God does to us. It was the
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 4: word of God washes us. It makes us clean.
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 3: You can't you can't do it by yourself, Yes, you can't.
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 3: You can't.
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 4: So you don't want to stay there. Remember you know
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 4: when when Joseph, you know, was tempted by his master's part,
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 4: press what did what did he do?
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 3: It ran? So you have to run from your trigger.
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 3: So what are the things crossing those triggers?
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 4: Identify them, set structures around them, and begin to run,
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 4: and a time will come where you will not find
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 4: them any Yes, when it come to addictions and situations
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 4: like this, you will see that consistently there is something
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 4: that would happen that would always make them.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 3: Do that thing. For some it is I I was
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 3: just you know, when you see.
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 4: That you're not doing anything, you know, you're just there
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 4: while you are alone, I think, just come, why don't
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 4: you just I begin to For some.
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 3: People is the kind of content you engage with. Yes,
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 3: you know how you will.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 4: Get to that point kissing you skip it? Why are
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 4: you doing the first place? Why are you watching those
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 4: kinds of movies in the first Monsile movies are the
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 4: watch movies that will you know, empower your spiritual like
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 4: watch them. You don't have to be updated, you don't
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 4: have to be obtated with all the movies that they
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 4: are producing. To the In fact, if you're spending so
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 4: much time muching movies, it tells me that you don't
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 4: have so much thing to do with your time.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 3: Yes, are you saying that?
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 4: So what are things are responsible for these triggers? Look
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 4: into them, run away from them, pumplicly don't. In fact,
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 4: they should not be found around you. Maybe for you
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 4: you live alone and then you know there's nobody. It
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 4: means that you can't leave.
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 3: You need somebody that would you you are.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 4: Or maybe for you you know you are always engaged
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 4: on your system or whatever, and you're not even using
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 4: the laptop for anything, and you're notting apart from for
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 4: pun that shit out.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 3: Ha you see that ship out as a serious immunity. Yes,
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 3: for you, maybe social media. You're not selling on social media,
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 3: you're not making money, you're not doing anything. Lockouts it.
• 1:07:52

• 1:07:55
  Speaker 3: your life. Log out.
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 4: Did you learn to run for everything that is responsible
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 4: for your triggers?
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 3: Thank you? Please celebrate person me praise God.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 2: Okay, so hmm, they said the matters of the female
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 2: where it's much, but God is going to give us grace.
