Welcome mister Mike the Chaplain. How you do it today, my brother?
3:08
Blessings man, I'm grateful man to be alive. I'm doing well.
3:13
God is faithful man. I cannot ask for anything more. Honestly, God
3:16
is faithful man. Man. He is isn't man. He gives us another
3:23
day. You know what I'm saying. He doesn't have to, but he
3:24
blesses us every day is a blessing. So I know what you mean,
3:28
brother, Absolutely, man, absolutely undeserved. We don't deserve it, but
3:34
God, it's grace and his mercy. You know, when we literally really
3:38
look at the goodness of God, we don't walk with a self entitlement type
3:44
of disposition. We understand that anything that we receive from the Lord is a
3:50
blessing. Come on, a blessing that maketh rich no sorrow. So yeah,
3:53
man, come on, I know that's right. Brother. Amen,
3:58
Amen, I love man, It's gonna be a good podcast already. Man.
4:01
I can already tell Man, I love your spirit bro for real man,
4:09
Man, and that means a lot, Bro, that means a lot
4:12
in the day we're living in now, because so many people they flake out,
4:15
you know, people you don't even expect to flake out, man.
4:17
And so when I see the real, when we run into the real,
4:20
I appreciate it, and I want to encourage every brother man, you know,
4:26
keep keep it real, man, keep it real for the Lord man,
4:28
because we're living in some crazy times right now. Absolutely absolutely, my
4:32
God. Absolutely hey man and man, So let's go ahead and up get
4:39
into your story. And before we talk about music, I like to ask
4:45
my guests this one question, man, because I believe that this question is
4:48
very foundational and pivotable to anybody's life. And my question is, when did
4:56
you finally decide to all to Jesus? Because some of us we go to
5:02
church, We grew up in church, and we go to church because our
5:05
parents force us to, or sometimes there's circumstances in our lives that bring us
5:12
to the throne of God and cause us to bow our knee befo the Lord.
5:16
And just to say, you know what, I'm gonna surrender. I'm
5:19
gonna give my life to you because obviously it ain't working the way I'm running
5:25
my life. You know what I'm saying. So just tell us real quickly,
5:29
what was that like for you? Man? That complete surrender? Well
5:33
for me honestly, and I'm just gonna just keep it, keep it one
5:36
hundred, keep it real. When I recognize that I was nothing without him,
5:43
and I know a lot of times when we talk as believers, we
5:47
come to a place within our walk and we call it maturity, to where
5:54
we really understand that there's nothing good in this flesh period, no matter how
6:00
well we dress it up, no matter how well we put our works together,
6:05
we understand that it is Christ that saves our souls for real. And
6:12
when you understand, after you've gone through for God's who love the world,
6:16
that he gave his only begotten son, you know, after you've gone through
6:19
the John three sixteen and the John three seventeen, you really start to experience
6:24
life to where you understand that you actually need Him. So at a young
6:30
age, there was reality that surrounded me that I understood that I needed God.
6:35
I needed God beyond what I could do for myself beyond what others could
6:40
do for me. I needed God. So at a young age was when
6:44
I really understood that, you know what, God is very real and he's
6:47
a present help in the time of trouble, and we can call on the
6:51
name of the Lord no matter what condition we're in. He's just that real.
6:57
So that's that's my answer, man, And that is a very good
7:04
answer. Man. I appreciate that. Bro. I think that's just really
7:09
important man, for everyone to know that first one I perfect. You know,
7:13
first we go through something sometimes, you know, sometimes people get the
7:16
view that Christians are perfect and they do everything right and we're judging other people
7:23
like, No, we went through it ourselves and we had to come to
7:26
the revelation. We had to meet our Savior on our knees, you know
7:29
what I mean, to get us to where we are today. So,
7:31
Man, I appreciate your transparency. Thank you for answering that question. So
7:38
where are you from? Man? Tell us a little bit about your background.
7:43
Well, I was born and raised in the Bronx, New York,
7:46
born and raised in church. I'm the first church that I was. I
7:51
actually was born kind of born into it from birth. It was called Immanual
7:57
Pentecostal Faith Church to where my mom was a choir director for the youth choir,
8:03
the Young Adults Choir they called it. And then of course my father
8:09
was a minister of the gospel and he would, you know, preach,
8:13
and he would preach, you would do the evangelical call. And I don't
8:16
mean just the church. I'm talking about going out on them train stations,
8:20
you know what I'm saying, and man and literally ministering to folks on the
8:24
sixth train in the Bronx, New York. And I'll never forget he would
8:28
go to we would take the train all the way to uh to sound View,
8:35
Yeah, sound View, and then we would ride it all the way
8:39
to Hunt's Point and that was where the prostitutes were. Like that's where people
8:43
would you know what I'm saying, would you know, be you know,
8:46
kind of selling themselves or even just you know, selling stuff that back in
8:50
the day, that was a big thing. Back in the day. They
8:52
used to sell the Malcolm X hats and yeah, the King shirts down in
8:58
the Barston, New York. But yeah, I started from a household that
9:03
believed in God in an uncommon way. I grew up and then of course
9:07
at the age of eight, my mother felt led to go under another leadership
9:13
under a Bishop Michelle White Haynes. She has been like a spiritual mother to
9:18
me ever since the age of eight. She's the one that has definitely spoken
9:22
into my life. Definitely, she has poured into my gifts, taught me
9:28
and sharpened me, talked, you know, hours hours upon hours teaching upon
9:35
teaching. I'm talking about we would be in church, you know what I'm
9:39
saying, like forever, and I would you that I was the type of
9:41
kid that would enjoy those things. And definitely, so I literally was there.
9:48
And then of course her son shout out to STEVENS. So White definitely
9:54
who took me under his wings and gave me the opportunity to write for Marvin
9:56
Sap Didrich Hadden, I had, you know, Fred Hammond. Like literally
10:01
these guys were definitely big brothers in the industry but also in church. So
10:07
there was this balance that I've always had. I grew up went to school
10:13
Harry S. Truman up in co Op City in the Bronx, New York,
10:16
and I was over the choir over groups there, you know, and
10:22
definitely would do some ministry to the kids, to the kids in my age
10:26
bracket, and even sometimes twelve grades, like literally going in high school with
10:31
the mindset to make an impact because of what I've seen in the ministry.
10:37
So definitely, Man, I come from that background to where we got it.
10:41
We got it for real. We got it for real. We went
10:46
through life ups and downs, and we've experienced the power of God at work
10:52
in our lives, you know, in a supernatural way. And of course,
10:54
man, like you said, and being a human being. You know,
10:58
I think a lot of times when we talk about perfection, I don't
11:01
think people get it that we don't have to sin to recognize we're not perfect.
11:07
I think that's the misconception that if we fall, we finalize, we
11:11
finally realize that we're not perfect. No, no, you got to understand
11:15
that within your mind and within your thoughts there are ungodly things and seeds that
11:20
could be sown into those spaces of your life, and you can recognize within
11:24
your humanity and how it reacts to it. Orthough we have a power to
11:28
respond. There is a reaction, an inward reaction, and because of Christ,
11:33
he makes us aware of those things, and that's why we can come
11:37
to the Father and be like, Yo, God, I know I didn't
11:39
do this yet, but I feel this way, and I know I'm off.
11:41
I don't have to call myself on a carpet when I mess up?
11:45
Do you und to say what I'm saying? Although we do, but it
11:48
doesn't start when we mess up. Yeah, what I'm saying. So I'm
11:52
grateful for that, man. So that's literally been just a piece of my
11:56
background, man, besides going with the cow agent, pursuing music and ministry
12:03
and you know, literally study study to get my doctorates and definitely done placements,
12:11
movie placements. Have the opportunity to do those things. Man, it
12:15
has definitely been an honor and a privilege to experience those things and what comes
12:20
with that. And man, man, brother, let's just give God praise
12:24
right there. We need a praise break, bro, because that's a lot,
12:28
man. And I love what I hear coming from your spirit. Man.
12:33
Just the fact that you said that it starts in the heart. You
12:37
know, that was the whole purpose behind the sermon on the mouth when Jesus
12:41
was saying, if you look at a woman, you committed adult. You
12:46
already you know what I mean. And a lot of people, especially back
12:48
then, they thought just keeping the wall. You know, it was like
12:52
they thought it was an outward exervance. You know, as long as I
12:56
look good outwardly, then I should be good with God. But Jesus he
13:00
flipped the script. But he also mentioned how we could stop it right there,
13:05
you know what I mean, Like we don't have to get called on
13:07
the carpet. We can call ourselves. Like Christians, we beat ourselves up
13:11
all the time to keep that back, to keep that sinful nature back,
13:18
so that we can walk in the spirit. And here's the thing, though,
13:20
we got help. We have the Holy Spirit to help. Like if
13:24
it wasn't for the Holy Spirit, nobody could live this lifestyle. And that's
13:28
what we try to share. That's what we try to the message that we
13:33
try to share. It is like God wants to help us live this life.
13:37
He's already done all the work. All we have to do is be
13:39
faithful to what He's already done. It's like nobody has to go to hell,
13:43
nobody has to lose, you know what I mean. I mean,
13:46
life ain't going to be perfect, but God is going to walk through it
13:50
with us if we have that maturity and that foundation. And that's that's what
13:54
I'm hearing from you. Bro. It sounds like you've won some battles.
13:58
It sounds like you know, you've grown man. You know what I'm saying,
14:01
Like this bathing in Christ. You know what I mean, we ain't
14:05
got time. We don't. We don't have time for it, especially when
14:07
we have family and we have children that that that are coming up behind us,
14:11
and our children gets to see the best parts of us and the worst
14:16
parts of us. And the fact of the matter is we're grateful like you.
14:20
Like you said, God has given us a comforter through the Holy Spirit.
14:24
And what I had to understand in my walk was man looks on the
14:30
outward appearance. So when we deal with our sin from the external parts,
14:35
we have already missed it. And that's why we seek so much. At
14:41
times we want to show and prove, and God is like, no,
14:46
no, no, no. Before you show people anything, I need your
14:50
loyalty to begin with me. Yes with me, Like you know what I'm
14:54
saying, The God looks at the heart. So this is the reason why
14:58
people are not able to ass yes, the hearts of ben But they what
15:03
they do is they look at the fruit of a person, or they look
15:07
at you know what I'm saying, what the person is portraying, and then
15:09
they make an assessment or a judgment whatever that may be. But God sees
15:15
past what is being the fruit the cause of the problem. He's able to
15:20
really see it the origin of it, and the origin is just simple sin.
15:24
Come on, you know what I'm saying. But we have Jesus who
15:28
literally rectifies and deals with that issue. So all we got to do is
15:33
be in him. You know what I'm saying, Come on, be and
15:35
him and allowing him his perfect work to be done. Man. So yeah,
15:39
man, Man, that's awesome. That's man. Can man, we
15:43
can start a Bible study here, and you know what I'm saying, Like,
15:46
we're getting deep, man, We're getting deep from praying that everybody's getting
15:50
something out of it. Man. I really enjoy talking to you, my
15:54
first time talking to you in this fellowship. We're like this fellowship and on
15:58
the podcast man Iron sharping Zion. Man. I appreciate it. But I
16:02
do want to get to your music. I want to jump into it and
16:06
I want to ask you, you know, what was your inspiration? How
16:10
who as an artist or a mentor. I know you mentioned a lot of
16:14
names already, but who is that one person that really inspired you encouraged you
16:18
to be the artist you are today. Well, first, definitely, uh,
16:26
I got to say people like Dietrich k Hat and people like Jay Moss
16:30
of my time, people like men of Standard. Uh. Then of course
16:36
the secular side got people like Michael Jackson, a lot of artists Mahelia Jackson,
16:45
Donnie Hathaway, uh, Fred Hammond, Like, there are so many
16:49
influences that I've people that I've been inspired by, that have literally shared their
16:56
life lives on wax that made it, you know, made it. I
17:03
want to say clear that you know, we're in this world, we're not
17:06
of it, but we have a journey and it's something like Solomon, he
17:11
was the king of writing, especially certain experiences that he had, you know,
17:18
especially when it dealt with relationships. Now, David was great when it
17:22
come came to writing songs, you know, in dealing with his personal relationship
17:26
with God, his emotions, and these other artists that I just talked about,
17:30
you know, they literally documented their journey and they have literally created moments
17:37
for humanity, you know, for different things. You know what I'm saying,
17:41
so these are some of my inspiration. Amen. Amen, that's awesome,
17:47
brother, that's cool. I was reading in the Book of Songs the
17:49
other day and they were saying that, you know, basically the the you
17:55
know how David he gets down in the songs and he's like the wicked I
17:59
will hate, like, I will not have any wicked person before me.
18:02
But those who fear the Lord, They're gonna be my heroes, you know
18:07
what I mean, Those are going to be the people. You know what
18:08
I'm saying that I regard. And you know, David come straight out.
18:12
You know, he comes straight out. So we got to have the inspiration.
18:15
We gotta have the people around us that will keep us on the track
18:21
and something. You know, we need some people to hold us accountable too,
18:23
man. So but yeah, man, that's that's awesome. I appreciate
18:30
you sharing that with us. And what would you say would be the most
18:36
important message coming from Mike the chaplain? Like, what message do you want
18:41
the world to receive from your music and not only your music, but from
18:48
your life. That's a loaded question, but I'm going to give you a
18:53
direct answer, simple answer. Truth be told. I want people to understand
19:02
that it's not over to God says it's over period, on any subject,
19:11
on any matter, no matter what your conditions are, whether you're dealing with
19:15
a broken heart, whether you're dealing with a dysfunctional environment, whether you're dealing
19:22
with obstacles and oppositions that you cannot control, whether you're dealing with issues within
19:30
yourself that you can't seemingly put it together. And you try books, you
19:33
tried sitting in masterclasses, you've tried therapy, you tried all of those things
19:41
only to come up with more information, but no deliverance. Deliverance deals with
19:47
the relocation. And although you can be aware and have more information, it's
19:52
important that you understand that it's God's spirit. It's not by might, nor
19:56
it's by power, but it's only by the of God. And it is
20:00
only God, which is who is spirit that touches the heart of men.
20:06
You understand what I'm saying. So when we can't seem to change our hearts
20:10
on the matter, there is still God. When people's mind change concerning us,
20:15
whether we are experiencing the highs and the loads of life, there is
20:21
still God. You understand what I'm saying, Who's able to fulfill His purpose
20:26
in all of our lives. So there is hope. Amen. Amen.
20:30
So God has the final word. I want to share something that my wife
20:34
was sharing with me just yesterday, that she just had a revelation or a
20:41
dream sort of speak, where God is telling her that he's the one writing
20:45
the story. Yes, you don't have to worry about the circumstance or what
20:51
it looked like or what it feels like, because I'm the writer. I'm
20:55
right. I broke that in you know what I mean. I wrote the
20:57
challenges I wrote. He even wrote Satan into this story. You know,
21:00
the antagonist. You know, the Satan is actually serving God. People don't
21:04
realize it, you know what I mean. But it's like God is in
21:07
control of all of this. And as soon as we grabs that, the
21:12
worry, you know, we don't have to worry. We don't have to
21:15
be concerned. And like you said, God has the final say, bro.
21:18
So that's that's awesome man. So right now I want to transition.
21:22
I want to go ahead and play the song. You have a song out
21:27
it's called First and I want to go ahead and get into it. And
21:32
when we come back, I want you to talk to us about the song,
21:36
what inspired you and all that your feature and all that good stuff.
21:41
So I want to try to keep it locked. Will be right back after
21:47
this. You are listening to the light of Las Vegas. This is the
21:52
hiss hop radio show. I don't want nobody else else to be the first

the sincerity of heart and and it's it's I mean to me, it speaks
26:27
two things to me, man. But I'm gonna let you just explain it,
26:32
what was inspiration and give us a little story about the feature you had
26:37
on there as well. First of all, shout out to my brother Robert
26:42
A. Curry. We are actually this is this is our song. This
26:48
is our our song, our project, and I'm super excited because we definitely
26:55
we got together, definitely this is my brother for for a minute now,
27:00
like over four or five years, and literally we've connected in such a way
27:08
to where we understand that God has brought us through a lot, a lot.
27:17
We've been through ups, we've been through downs, and when I look,
27:22
when we look back over our lives, we know that it was God
27:27
that was sustaining us. It was God that was preserving us. And the
27:33
fact of the matter is, why not be the first ones to praise,
27:38
Why not be the first one to testify? Why not be the spokesman of
27:42
what he's done. You know what I'm saying. I think a lot of
27:48
times we talk about the things we want to achieve and the things that we
27:51
have not accomplished yet we magnify those things. But first I got to magnify
27:57
what the Lord has done. Got to give him the first. I gotta
28:03
make sure that he's the center of everything that I'm doing. I gotta make
28:07
sure that I shouted on the mountain, I got to shout it on in
28:10
the valley. I gotta let the world know that. Listen, man,
28:12
God has really been my ventilator when I could not breathe, That's a fact.
28:18
And when my heart was broken, that's a fact. God was there
28:22
when I made some bad choices and decision, he was there. So the
28:27
fact of the matter is, I now understand I will bless the Lord at
28:33
off like it becomes. It's a real thing, bro, you know what
28:36
I'm saying. So that's really how the song really derived about. Amen.
28:44
Amen, brother, Well, this is what it speaks to me, man,
28:48
when I listen to it. We're living in a time. I have
28:53
a heart for people, man, I really every since I got saving House
28:59
fifteen years old and I just started evangelizing just automatically. It was just in
29:06
my blood, my nature. Even though I didn't know John three sixteen yet.
29:10
You know, I really didn't know the Bible that well. The person
29:14
that was training me, the person that was mentoring me at the time,
29:18
would give me tracks, you know, Bible tracks and things that pass out
29:22
to people. You know. We would go to the grocery store. I
29:23
would leave them in the shopping cart, you know what I'm saying. We
29:26
would go to our high school and I would talk to the kids in school
29:33
and they would come out the Bible study. And now fast forward to today,
29:40
where you see a lot of people walking away from their faith, you
29:44
know what I mean. You see so many people. Even when I started
29:47
doing his out nation. You know, we opened up the club back in
29:49
twenty twelve, and you look around and you asked, like, where are
29:53
the artists, Where are all the people that are ministring? Where did they
29:59
go? It's like, Okay, you don't want nobody else to praise you,
30:04
but even when everyone else stopped praising him, I want to be the
30:08
first to praise you. Like, let me do it, you know,
30:11
let me be the one In the second thing, it speaks to me,
30:15
is that verse when Jesus says that if you don't praise him, the rocks
30:18
will cry out. You know what I'm saying, The rocks will cry out
30:22
in your place. And so you know, I don't want no rock to
30:25
replace me, man. So so that's that's awesome. And that also tells
30:30
us how it is an awesome privilege for us to be able to praise him.
30:38
You know what I mean, There's going to be a one day an
30:41
eternity where people are going to want to praise him but can't. They're not
30:47
allowed to praise him, you know what I'm saying, Like you go to
30:49
want to like you might not want to think about God now or Jesus now,
30:53
but there's going to be a day the Bible says that they're going to
30:56
seek me, but they're not going to be able to find me. And
30:59
that's scared. So yeah, yeah, I mean, this song is definitely
31:03
gonna be on my plate playlist. I'm gonna wear this song out brother for
31:07
real. Man. That's that's good. That's some good stuff right there.

33:19
Man. I feel like you're fellowship. And this wasn't really a podcast.
33:22
This is two brothers coming together, loving on our father. You know
33:25
what I'm saying. And I just want to give you that open invitation whenever
33:30
you want to come back. You got something going, get back on his
33:34
high radio. Man, come on, come on, make this your home
33:37
away from home. You know what I'm saying. Thank you man. Just
33:43
one more thing before we close out, man, I just want you to
33:46
speak a word of encouragement. Maybe there's someone listening to this right now and
33:51
they're in that situation where they need to be reminded that God has the final
33:57
word, or they need to be reminded that they need to praise God even
34:01
though the situation seems hopeless. It could be a doctor's report, it could
34:07
be a bad breakup, a marriage, appearent left their child, it could
34:12
be a loss of a job or something. Just there's a lot of people
34:15
going through right now, but they need this message, they need this song,
34:21
and they need that word. And so I just want you to leave
34:23
us just with a quick word of encourage me, my brother. First of
34:29
all, you tapped on something with the last statement you said about you know,
34:34
where have the other artists gone that I really wanted to encourage them.
34:42
But first, there's a scripture that says stay that way upon the Lord.
34:45
They shall renew their strength. They shall mount on wings as eagles. They
34:51
shall run and not be wary, they shall walk and not think. It's
34:54
imperative that we understand that we live in a time to where world the culture
35:00
is trying to drain the life out of us. Let's just keep it above.
35:06
That's what the enemy's job is to do is to wear you out.
35:10
He wants you to lose your faith anything. He's going to attack anything and
35:16
everything with the object to cause you to literally lose your faith, to not
35:25
believe anymore. And it's imperative even when the word says there's a great falling
35:30
away, it's imperative that we remember God's promises to us and recognize that we
35:37
do not serve God to get rich. We can serve God so that we
35:40
can have the house on the hill. We don't serve God so that our
35:45
names will be great. He already said what he said. He said,
35:50
I will establish the works of your hand. That I mean, that's a
35:53
promise that God has made from him to you. So all we have to
35:59
do is trust God and not be distracted by what he feels. So I
36:02
want to encourage you to let you know, do not allow the enemy to
36:08
literally cause you to go back on what you committed to God because he's a
36:15
liar. He's the father of lies. And even our issues and the things
36:21
that stresses us. I want to encourage you that God wants to literally remove
36:27
watch this, remove these things from you in his presence. Even if he
36:31
doesn't take certain things away there's something about the presence of God that causes us
36:37
to be restored in a way that the enemy cannot destroy us. So I
36:43
want, literally, I want us to be able to tap into our superpower,
36:45
and our superpower is by being in the presence of God leading on the
36:50
Holy Spirit, because he knows what it is that we need. He knows
36:55
how to get where we need to go. He is He's the one that
36:59
leads us and guides us. So I want to encourage you. You are
37:01
not without help. I don't care how bad it is. You are not
37:06
without help, and you are not without hope. Greater is he that's in
37:09
you and he that is in the world. I much a loss. Everybody.
37:15
Come on, man, come on man. That's the word right there,
37:20
that is the word. My brother is speaking the word of God,
37:23
and my faith is being stirred and encouraged. And I pray everyone listening,
37:30
everyone watching to the spot watching this podcast, that you are encouraged, that
37:34
you walk away with something from what you've heard and what you've received. Stay
37:38
encouraged. I want to encourage everyone to check out, support our brother Mike
37:44
the chaplain, you know, give get you know, these soldiers on the
37:47
front line man, the brothers that are holding the standard, the brothers that
37:52
are trusting and holding on to the word of God, and the brothers that
37:55
are shining that light. Sometimes we need that, you know, other people
38:00
to lead the way, you know what I mean. We need other people
38:02
to shine a light, and that's our brother, Mike the Chaplain. I
38:06
appreciate you brother. Like I said, man, open invitation, make sure
38:12
you you know whatever you got going. We want to know you know what
38:14
I'm saying. So we appreciate y'all. We go to go ahead and close
38:20
out, and I'm gonna close out like I always do. It's not about
38:23
us. It's all about the Christ in us. And we'll see y'all on
38:28
the next podcast. Man. Thanks brother much. Love brother,
