  Speaker 3: other accountable, keep each other on that narrow path. You know,
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: the Bible says that iron sharpens iron, and yes, we
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: do need that fellowship. I'll be the first one to
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: say that I need y'all. You know, I need my brothers.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: I need my sisters to pray for me and to
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: help me stay on that narrow path. And we are
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: constantly supposed to renew our minds daily and make sure
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: that we are lining up with God's words. So help
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: us build up our unline community, build up the family

  Speaker 3: and the Body of Christ together. And as we do
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: all that, let's go ahead and go before our Father
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: in prayer. Family. Father, we come before you today, Father God,
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: and we ask Father God, Oh Lord, for your grace,
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: for your mercy, O God, for your hand to be
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: on the podcast today. We ask Father God, Oh Lord,
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: that you will Father God Lord, touch every ear, touch
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: every heart, Father, Oh Lord, draw us in by your love,
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Father God, Oh Lord, allow us to realize and know
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: that we are your children and you are calling us home. Father.
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: We asked that you will defeat every army, every enemy,
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: Father God, every adversary that is against us. For if
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: God be for us, who can be against us? And
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: we asked this in Jesus' name. Amen? All right, Oh,
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: I pushed your on button. I meant to turn the
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: music off. We were praying, but sorry, we got some
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: extra rhythm in that prayer. So as I said that
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: we are in Jeremiah chapter ten, verse eleven. Now this
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: message is a message to Judah. But in all honesty,
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: we all need to hear this. We need to hear
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: this loud and clear. Right now, let's start at verse
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: a lesson. Now listen to this thus say it? Shall
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: you say unto them the gods that have not made
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: the earth and from under the heavens. Wow. Now this
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: verse is a direct contrast, right, God speaking through Jeremiah
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: to say that these false gods that they worship, the
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: ones that they did not have any part in creating
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: the heavens and earth. Right, they don't have the power
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: to create anything, and they don't have the power to
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: destroy anything. These guys that they created are about to disappear.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: They have no substance, they have no future. There is
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: no point in worshiping these gods. Now, it's HiT's different
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: because when we worship anything that doesn't create us money, status,
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: likes on social media, relationships or betting knows something that
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: cannot deliver us as well. It's all temporary. But the
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: God who made the heavens and the earth that's eternally,
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: that is real power. He is the one that can
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: deliver us and help us and save us. Verse twelve.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: He's made the earth and his power. He has established
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: the world by his wisdom and has stretched out the
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: heavens by his discretion. Now God reminds his people here
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: that he is the creative, that he has the creative power. Right,
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: this is not just poetry, it's reality. It's a reality check. God,
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: the God of Israel, didn't just make a few things.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: He made everything but the capital e. He made the earth,
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: the world, the heavens, all by his wisdom and all
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: by his very own power. Now, when you understand that,
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: you stop being impressed by man made idols. Right, we
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: stop getting impressed by things that men try to accomplish
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: and puff themselves up about, right, Like, I mean, I
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: think it's great to acknowledge somebody, But you get to
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: the point like, okay, you want to gramy Like wow,
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: Like what's that really gonna do for you? Oh? You
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: want to oscar? Oh you got a million dollars? Like
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: at the end of the day, how is that going
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: to help you in all eternity? Now? Think about it.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: If God can stretch out the heavens, can establish the
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: worlds by wisdom, and he can create the earth by power,
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: what's he not able to do in our lives? Right now?
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: When we lose a consciousness, consciousness of God's power, we
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: start creating little guys to feel the void. Now. Remember
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: we were created to worship. We're gonna worship something, all right?
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: All right, back, there was a wife calling into the podcast?
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: All right? So where was I? When we understand that
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: God is the only power that matters, that we stop
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: being impressed with the accomplishments of men. Men who want
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: to idolize themselves and make themselves something great, right, put
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: themselves on a pedestal Verse thirteen, When he uttereth his voice.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: There is a multitude of waters in the heavens, and
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: he causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: the earth. He maketh like mean rain and bring it
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: forth the wind out of his treasuries. Wow, now this
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: is this right here is describing God's control over nature itself.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: When God speaks thunder, rain, lightning, when all of that
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: obeys his amazing voice. Amen. Now this is showing the
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: absolute sovereignty of God, our creator. Nothing moves without his word, right,
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: nothing can do anything without his permission. Just think about it.
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: The enemy can't even attack us without getting permission from
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: God first. That is power, that is authority. God doesn't
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: negotiate with nature. He doesn't ask the wind for permission.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: He just speaks and it happens. But here's the thing.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: That's how God operates in the natural world. Imagine what
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: He can do in this spiritual realm, in your life,
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: in your circumstances. He is not limited at all. We
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: may be limited, but He's not. And this is encouraging
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: me because I'm going through something. I'm going through a
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: circumstance myself and just reflecting on how mighty and how
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: powerful God is is beautiful. Amen. Now every man is
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: brutish in verse fourteen. And his knowledge, every founder is
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: confound by the graven image, for his molten image is falsehood.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: And there there is no breath in them. Now here's
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: where it gets convicting. Every person who makes idols, carved images,
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: molten images, they're operating in spiritual darkness. Right. They think
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: that they're wise, but they're actually foolish. And the idols,
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: they are lives as well. They have no life, They
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: have no breath, they have no power. There is no
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: breath in them. That is the key phrase right there.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: An idol can't breathe life into anything. It can't give
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: you purpose, It cannot give you peace or power. The
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: idol is dead. It's dead. But when we chase after
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: dead things, dead dreams, dead relationships, dead pursuits, we become
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: spiritually dead ourselves. We need something with breath. We need
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: the living and the true God. Amen. Verse fifteen. They
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: are vanity in the works of errors. In the time
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: of their visitation, they shall perish. Now vanity emphasizes works
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: of errors built on lies. And in the time of
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: that visitation, they shall perish. When God comes to judge,
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: these idols will be destroyed. They have an expiration day.
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: I even had a shirt is something that one of
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: my lyrics, right, Sin has an expiration date. I have
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: a shirt in the his hot shop on the app
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: was Satan getting arrested like by an angel, and it
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: says that I have a verse from the Book of Revelation.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: It says that Sin has an expiration date, and it
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: shows Satan himself getting arrested. Now, everything that is built
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: outside of Guy's kingdom has an expiration date. Our career,
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: our looks, our money, our followers. They're all temporary, all
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: subject to judgment. Just think about it. But when you
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: build with God, that is eternal. That's what last. As
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: a question is what are you building on your own?
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: As you said in the last podcast, you know what
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: I mean? Where are you storing your treasures up? And
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: last night I just had some time to kick back
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: and watch a little bit of Netflix and watched the
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: show about hip Hop turning fifty right and how they're
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: creating a hip hop museum and they're getting all these
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: artifacts and majority of the artists that they were searching
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: for were gone. They were like passed away. I remember
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: these are like some of my childhood heroes that I
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: used to listen to, and they're finding their books or
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: rhymes and they're finding different artifacts. Just think, one day,
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: your stuff, my stuff will be artifacts. Right the notes
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: that we've just got down. We don't think about the
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: jackets we wear, the clothes we buy. One day we'll
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: be a memory in a closet right for our kids
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: to go through. And then they're not the hottest thing
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: right now as far as their music, you know what
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: I mean. They're not uh on tour or they're not
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: you know, people are not coming to their concerts. Well,
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: of course I'm not. I'm the ones who are dead can't.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: But I'm just singing artists like h ohkau Jay, those
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: who are still alive, they're not necessarily big in these generations,
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: in this generation like they were when we were coming up.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: So the point I'm trying to make is how futile
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: and how temporary this life truly is. Now I choose
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: to build his hot nation, and I'm building it under
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: the name of Jesus, and every person that his hot
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: Nation will touch will go into eternity, and we get
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: to become a part of a lasting legacy because it's
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: built on the Gospel, is built on Christ. Only what
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: we do for Christ will last Amen verse sixteen. Now
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: the portion of Jacob is not like them, for He
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: is the former of all things, and Israel is the
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: ride of his inheritance. The Lord of Hosts is his name.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: Now this is a contrast right here, Jacob Israel has
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: a different inheritance, not idols, not emptiness, but a relationship
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: with the God who formed all things. Right, God chose
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: Israel as his inheritance, and he is the Lord of
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: host the God of all power, in the God of
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: all the authority. Right now, listen to this. If you're
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: in Christ, you are a part of spiritual Israel. As
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: it says in the New Testament, your inheritance isn't in
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: things things on this earth. Our inheritance is in Him. Right.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: You're not in accidents, you're not random, you are not
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: just somebody's mistake. You're His chosen inheritance, the God of
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: all hosts, all power, all authority. He claims you. Now
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: that right there changes everything. That is why we have
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: so many haters. That's why the enemy tries so hard
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: to destroy us. Because God has chosen us we are
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: His chosen people Verse seventeen. Gather up thy waivers out
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: of the land, or thy wears out of the land, Oh,
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: inhabitant of the fortresses. But thus says the Lord, behold,
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: I will sling out and inhabitants. I will sling out
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: the inhabitants of the land at this once, and will
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: distress them that they may find it so all right,
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: I know it sounds a little confusing, but let's break
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: this down right now. God is warning Judah that judgment
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: is coming. They need to gather their possessions and prepare
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: for exile. This is not a gentle warning right here,
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: This is a reality check. God will swing out the inhabitants.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: That means distress is coming. Now. This is what happens
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: when a nation, when a people turns away from God.
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: And as we read this, I hope and pray that
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: you are praying for the United States of America that
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: we are praying for this country. Consequences come not because
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: God is cruel, but because God is a holy God.
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: He cannot tolerate sin forever. He cannot allow us to
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: get away with sin forever. He has to judge it. Now.
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: He gives warnings but if we don't repent, judgment will come.
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: I hope we're paying attention. I hope our community, our
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: neighborhoods are paying attention. Amen. Now here's a question. Are
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: we listening to God's warning in our own lives? Are
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: we listening to the voice of God as he tells
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: us We need to be faithful, as he tells us,
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: we need to find a home church and submit to
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: a godly leader. As he tells us, we need to
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: lead our families and raise our children as men. As
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: we tell our wives to be submissive to our husbands.
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: Right verse eighteen, woe is me from my hurt. My
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: wounds is grievous, But I said, truly, this is grief
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: and I must bear it. Now. This is Jeremiah's own
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: lament right here. He's grieving for his people. That's why
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: they call him the weeping Prophet. Right he knows what's coming, captivity, destruction,
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: and his heart is broken, but he also accepts it.
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: He knows that God's judgment is just, even though it hurts.
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: He is a just God. Right now, this is maturity
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: on his part. Jeremiah is not angry at God. He
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: doesn't deny the consequences at all. He's saying that this hurts,
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: but I understand God is righteous, and I accept this judgment.
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: Now that's a posture that we need. We need not denial.
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: We need not to deny. We don't need to sit
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: here and blame shift, but accept. Right, we need to
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: accept God's justice in a willingness to bear the consequences
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: of our choices. We need to allow God to correct us,
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: to chasten us. And that's the whole point of the
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: accountability partner on this segment, is that we keep ourselves
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: out of trouble. If we can keep ourselves out of trouble,
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: God will not have to punish us. Amen. Verse nineteen.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: My tabernacle is spoiled, and all my cords are broken.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: My children are gone forth from me, and they are not.
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: There is none to stretch forth my tent anymore and
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: to set up my curtains. Now, this imagery here is
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: devastating right because the tabernacle, the place of God's presence,
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: is destroyed. It says that the cords are broken, the
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: children are gone, there is no one left to rebuild.
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: This is total spiritual and national collapse right here, that
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: the nation went through When we turn from God, everything
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: we build falls apart. Family. Our family structure will break down.
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: If we do it our way in that God's waymmunities
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: will scatter the presence of God. The tabernacle became distant, right,
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: it becomes distant. But look at the attitude that people
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: have about church today. It's like there's no reverence. They
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: can just take it and leave it. Right, This isn't
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: what God wants from us. God does not want to
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: judge us. He wants to redeem us. He wants his
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: church to stand up to prevent all judgment. Right up
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: right where back had to check on the wife. She's
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: getting a tire replaced on the car, having some tire issues.
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: Lift her up in prayer, all right? Verse twenty four.
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: The pastors are become brutish and have not sought the Lord.
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: Therefore they shall not prosper, and their flocks shall be scattered.
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: While it's one thing to be in the leadership and
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: you're leading the people astray, you're held more accountable. Right.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: The pastor is the spiritual guide. To have become brutish,
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: that means that they have lost their spiritual sensitivity. They
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: have sought the Lord. I mean they have not sought
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: the Lord. Because of that, they won't pastor and their
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: flocks will scatter. This is a direct in the indication
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: or and I mean, where what am I looking for? Indictment?
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: This is a direct indictment of spiritual leadership that has
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: abandoned God. We cannot lead if we don't seek after God.
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: We don't know how to seek after him. If we
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: don't know how to cry out to Him, then we
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: are not able to lead. Amen. Now this hits hard
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: for anyone that is in ministry. If pastors, leaders or teachers,
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: if we stop seeking God, stop being intentional about our walk,
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: we lose our authority and our people will scatter. Our
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: influence will die. But it's not just for pastors though,
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: It's for parents and mentors, for everyone leading others. If
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: we're not seeking God daily, your leadership is compromised, Your
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: influence is hollow. We need to seek Him first. Amen.
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: All right, I think right there, it's time for a break.
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: You are listening to the light of Las Vegas. This
• 27:12

  Speaker 4: Watch, Papa, you are listening to the Light of Las Vegas.
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: This is the hiss Hop radio show.
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: All right, all right, we are back. We are back.
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: That was Killer Jordans on the musical break. I want
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: to give a quick shout out to the live chat.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: We appreciate you all for showing up. Shout out to
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: our brother's own three.
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: He just hit me up because we had to play
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: a replay yesterday and as you can hear today, we're
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: dealing with some tire issues, so our podcast was a
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: little delayed. I had to play a replay. Yeah, we
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: went to a hole in the wall place and they
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: got us like the wrong size tires, Like the tires
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: are old and already ready to pop. And then we
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: paid like like one hundred dollars to this guy. And
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: I don't know what happened. My wife had ran over
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: something going to the airport and she popped a couple
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: of tires. So hopefully our tires are good. Now we
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: have to come out of pocket a little more, but
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: you know, we get some better tires on that thing,
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: and then after that we have to get an alignment done.
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: But anyway, with that being said, it is time for
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: the accountability partner segments. Now we just read about idols
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: in false guys. But let me ask you, what's your idol?
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: Where are you chasing that is not God? Right? Could
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: it be money? Could it be a person? Could it
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: be your phone? Could it be your career? Could there
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: be something that you're seeking after that is not the Lord,
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: our God that we dealt this on an other episode.
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: So this is kind of like part two, but we
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: really need to examine our hearts right now. But this
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: time I want you to name it. This time, I
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: want you to write it down. And when you find
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: and talk to your accountability partner, someone you trust, you
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: need to tell them not to shame you, but to
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: help you turn away from it. That's what accountability is
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: for we're not meant to do this alone, right, And
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: I've confessed before. You know, if I'm not careful, ministry
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: could be my idol. You know, I could be doing
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: podcasts all day, all night. I could DJ, I could
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: be doing concerts, recording music. I could do this until
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: the cows come home. But that wouldn't be good if
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: we do it and reglect our relationship with the Lord. Amen.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: And I actually there was a period I wish it
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: wasn't you, but there was a period of time where
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: I was confronted where this ministry hits how it makes
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: you was an idol. I wanted to make it like
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: a legacy of my success instead of allowing it to
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: be what it is, a move of God. Amen. And
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: so I had to step out of the way. And
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: my only prayer is that God will still use me
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: and allow his will to be done as he intended
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: it originally. Man. All right. Also, we want to let
• 33:19

  Speaker 3: to pray out together. Now this episode we went deep
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: into Jeremy chapter ten. If we talked about idols, talked
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: about God's power, talk about what happens when we turn away.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: Now here's your challenge for the week. Identify one idol
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: in your life, one thing you're chasing that is not God,
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: and then replace it not with another idol, plus replace
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: it with God. Seek him daily, seek Him intentionally, Seek
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: to be intimate with your heavenly Father, a man and
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: the Father. We just want to come before you in
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: prayer and Father God, we ask once again, Lord to
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: take any idol away from us. God, and we are
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: pursuing our careers. We're pursuing the approval of man, Oh God.
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: If we're pursuing relationships harder than we're pursuing you, Oh God.
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: If we're pursuing other things, Oh God, we ask Lord
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: that you will forgive us we replace it, and we
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: want to take it away. Oh God. We want you
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: to be the true and living God, the true and
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: living King. We want to worship the true and living God.
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: And we ask that you will forgive us, restore us,
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: and strengthen us in Jesus' name. And remember, it's not
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: about us, It's all about the Christ. And as God bless.
