0:35
All right, God bless you guys. Thank you for those that have
0:37
been listening and those that are new welcome.
0:40
Sorry, I just grabbed the calculator that one of your,
0:44
what is it Secretary? Yeah, dude, yeah, Libra stuff.
0:50
But they're like, who touched my things?
0:52
I'm like, Oh my God. Be like just say Brian touched
0:55
it. I did eat her Cheetos too that
0:58
she left. But besides if she listens to
1:01
this I'm not sorry. But if you want me to get you a
1:03
new bag? Sorry, not sorry.
1:05
Yeah. Sorry, not sorry.
1:06
All right. So before we start, we always
1:08
pray. So, all right, God, thank you so
1:12
much for another day of life. You are the one true, living
1:17
God, and there's no one greater than you.
1:20
May you guide us and lead us into the absolute truth for what
1:24
we will speak for and what we'll speak about.
1:27
And you guide us. In your holy name, I pray.
1:29
Amen, Amen. Amen.
1:32
Amen. Amen.
1:34
So yesterday, you know, we actually went to the store.
1:38
Oh God. And no, you're not.
1:41
You know, I went, no, I went to the store to go buy a Nintendo
1:43
Switch. You know, I had to go buy one
1:45
'cause I really wanted one. And funny enough.
1:50
Right. You bought APS 5.
1:52
Of course. And you bought all my Super
1:55
Nintendo, which I'm kind of jealous, but.
2:01
Oh God. Yeah, what made you want to buy
2:03
that, bro? That was just an impulse.
2:05
An impulse. Impulse.
2:06
It was just the Super Nintendo thing, which is kind of just
2:10
because I grew up playing with it.
2:12
OK. Only the kids that or my age
2:16
will understand. Well, I mean, I never.
2:19
I did grow up with a Game Boy so I remember Mario was on there.
2:24
Yeah, I mean, growing up, I mean, my mom didn't let us play.
2:27
It's not like she didn't. It's not like we played like
2:31
guns or none of that. Yeah, at least I wasn't
2:33
interested in that. It's just like Super Mario and
2:35
cars. She didn't mind if we played
2:37
that because to her that was like, alright, that's innocent.
2:40
That's not, that's not as bad, right, Right.
2:43
But yeah, that's about it. It was pretty much an impulse of
2:47
sorts. Yeah, man, do that.
2:51
I swear, man. It's like there's an impulse to
2:55
a lot of things. Yeah, that's true.
2:59
Yeah. Yeah, that's true.
3:00
Yeah, man. You know, our mind is always
3:03
being like programmed, always being like.
3:08
What do you mean by that? What I mean by that is like.
3:11
If you're saying that we're we're being set up every day
3:15
with like compounded distractions, that that creates
3:18
an impulse to certain this or that, right, Right.
3:21
Right. If people like travelling,
3:22
they'll have an impulse or just want to travel.
3:24
Yeah. Yeah.
3:25
Like gaming, they'll have an impulse.
3:27
My impulse is because of childhood.
3:29
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I want to share with my
3:30
brother. Yeah.
3:31
Nothing more, nothing less. Is nothing magical, Right?
3:34
Right. No, no, no, I'm not talking
3:36
about video games. I'm just saying just in general,
3:38
like, you know, there's an effort to be, to be like to be
3:44
put every day when you wake up. What do you mean?
3:48
Like there's an effort to like denying yourself in that aspect
3:54
because it, you know, like our flesh naturally has an impulse
3:57
to the things of the world. Yeah, that's why we're in.
3:59
We're in. Christ has hold.
4:02
On. Hold on.
4:03
Wait. OK, OK.
4:04
Before you correct me, I just, I just want to say this like, I
4:09
mean, we naturally, like, you know, we, we things catch our
4:12
eye naturally to things of the world.
4:15
For you, it might be music, right?
4:18
Or you might be instruments. For me, it's like tools.
4:21
I I love tools like. Yeah, but see that's.
4:25
Those are innocent things, I know.
4:27
Yeah, those, those are. Those are innocent things, I
4:29
know, I know. But they can be idolized and
4:32
they can be pushed towards something, for example, like
4:37
with the tools that I have them and let's, I'm just giving you a
4:40
scenario or I'm going to use you for an example.
4:43
Even better, even better. You love music, you love
4:46
instruments. Now, if you buy instruments and
4:51
you play them, there's nothing wrong with that, right?
4:53
But however, if you if you continue in that path of just
4:56
practicing, practicing, practicing and you don't put
4:59
effort to seeking after your own spiritual life.
5:01
Right. Yeah, yeah.
5:02
You can eventually your mind will be renewed to this moment
5:05
of this, of this scenario of like, I want to go play at a, at
5:09
a gig or something or church or something.
5:11
And it's something in which, like God has already told you,
5:14
no. Well, yeah, for me, right.
5:18
For others I don't know. Right, right, right.
5:20
But you're saying if I were to like practice, practice and
5:26
practice and, you know, not pay attention to, to, you know,
5:35
showing up with God, right. Yeah.
5:38
Other Christians would call it works, if you will.
5:42
All right, if they call it that, well, I guess I'm working.
5:45
But I'm sure. But you mean showing up, setting
5:49
aside time for God, right? I mean, I, I still practice
5:53
today. I mean, you could, you could
5:54
literally see my stacks, right? There, no, you do.
5:57
I do see that you practice, but I can see that you also put
6:00
effort in which like, I'm not going any further than this.
6:04
I want to, you want to, and I and I can, right?
6:06
And I can and I'll still be OK, right?
6:09
But then I want more. I want to go more.
6:12
And So what happens is that it's you, dude.
6:16
There was one time dude I was practicing for like 6 hours a
6:18
day. No, I believe you and I would.
6:20
Literally dream about. Practicing.
6:22
Yeah, I believe. My mind was so consumed by that
6:25
right right now. Was that a sin?
6:30
No. No, but.
6:31
Definitely was taking time away. Right.
6:33
A lot, right? Which, you know, James Ford
6:37
says, I know has nothing to do with it, but he says, you know,
6:39
submit to God. Yeah, yeah.
6:41
Resist the the devil and the devil flee from you, right.
6:44
You will draw near closer to God.
6:46
What is drawing near closer to God and God will draw near.
6:50
You will draw near closer to God and God will draw near.
6:53
If you're going to draw near closer to God, that means you
6:55
there's an impulse to want to draw near to God.
6:58
Yes, as much as you would want to practice, or at least for me,
7:01
right, Same, same is true, right?
7:05
Practicing these things or what Paul calls them.
7:07
Yeah, bro. That will make you inherit the
7:11
the Kingdom of God, right? Versus practicing the things of
7:15
the flesh. But I understand what you're
7:17
saying, right? We do have impulses now.
7:19
Those are just like simple things, yes.
7:21
How would it work for you then? Like what?
7:22
You like tools and you're just drilling holes?
7:25
No, not. Another five hours drilling
7:27
holes. Hold on.
7:30
I remember from oof a long time ago when I said I got the job at
7:33
the electrical field. I'm still in it and I love it.
7:36
I, I, I, I literally tell people I'm like, Dang, I wish I went
7:40
into this after I got out of high school.
7:43
I love it. I would have had my license.
7:44
I would have had my own company, whatever my own van.
7:47
I would have been a solar preneur most likely, right?
7:49
Right now, I cannot let that also consume me because I love
7:55
it so much. I can let it because every time
7:59
I get new tools, I learn more. I want to pursue it to the point
8:03
where it becomes my own career in that, in that aspect.
8:07
And that's to me, that's wrong only because of this Scripture
8:11
says you are a slave to righteousness, Be a slave to
8:15
righteousness. So let's say God one day decides
8:19
to pluck me out of that. I have to be OK with that.
8:22
Now, if I would have, if I were to continue in that field and be
8:26
upset, obsessed over it, when that time comes, I will probably
8:32
deny it, most likely deny it. But if I were to just deny
8:35
myself and trust God, it'll be easy to let go, to let go.
8:40
Thanks be through Christ because the Holy Spirit is there
8:45
intervening like like it says in scripture.
8:48
What does it say? It says let the Holy Spirit
8:50
intervene. What did it say?
8:52
My bad. Yeah, that the Holy Spirit will
8:53
intercede for you. Intercede.
8:55
You have no words. Yes.
8:57
That you may want to describe he.
8:58
Knows he knows Will. Intercede for you.
9:00
Yes, exactly. You'll make testimony of you and
9:04
your spirit before. Exactly my point, yeah.
9:07
So by the way, it says that it does say Romans 8.
9:11
It does say that scripture. I believe it's verse 20 to 27
9:15
somewhere. Yes, yes, the Holy Spirit will
9:17
intercede for you, right? Remember, the Holy Spirit
9:21
doesn't do anything unless it's by the Father, right?
9:24
Whatever hears from. The Father, but we're talking
9:26
about career and hobbies and stuff like that Yeah, that's
9:29
right. Because if you're saying, well,
9:33
if God says let go of this and you do let go, but let's say you
9:37
do, you undertake an endeavour of sort of some sort, right?
9:42
You're taking a risk. That's what entrepreneurship
9:44
means. You're just undertaking a risk.
9:46
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Doesn't mean anything else,
9:47
right? And that risk, that can be
9:53
costly. So you have to kind of give it
9:55
your undivided attention, right? That's not necessarily an
9:59
impulse that comes natural. It is a human trait for you want
10:03
to like share what you have and trade and for good and services
10:07
or whatever to survive. Yeah, that's OK.
10:13
But in our world that we are so consumed by social media and
10:17
ambition and capitalism and all these people, you know, showing
10:21
off their things and you also wonder and think about then, you
10:24
know, inevitably ambition will come, right?
10:28
And ambition is a sin. And by sin, I mean, because sin
10:32
in Hebrew just means missing the mark, right?
10:34
So ambition essentially is doing that.
10:36
You're missing the mark. You're not even on the mark.
10:39
Yeah. So you know when the time comes
10:45
that God needs you to let it go, it becomes very difficult.
10:48
Yes it does. Very.
10:49
Difficult. Yeah, those are just things in
10:51
the world. There are impulses that are
10:53
pertaining to the flesh that are kind of natural because of our
10:57
fallen state that that's not an excuse, but right.
11:00
You know, like guy or a woman, you have an impulse.
11:03
You have an impulse to something.
11:05
You have an impulse to a desire. Yeah, right.
11:08
Can your eyes see without you? No.
11:15
Can your eyes see without you? Yeah, no.
11:18
They can see they're just not registering anything, Yeah.
11:20
They're just not registering anything, so it's basically
11:22
going to nothing, right? Yeah, but you see it, right?
11:26
The eyes are just. Programmed or like are.
11:29
Projecting. Projecting.
11:30
Yeah, What you're seeing. Yeah.
11:33
So then the flesh is just a receptor then?
11:35
Yes. Just receives.
11:36
It. Receives.
11:37
So your consciousness, you in there?
11:40
We say the flesh, the flesh, the flesh, but it's also the spirit
11:44
to a certain extent. I agree, and I don't know if
11:47
we've spoken about this. I don't.
11:48
Want to go too deep in this? OK, OK.
11:50
Yeah. Yeah, right.
11:51
I'm because I'm referring to the impulse you would say, well,
11:56
like for example, a guy has a desire to, you know, be in a
12:00
relationship with a woman, deep sexual relationship, but the
12:06
flesh can't act upon unless it receives information like you
12:11
inside your consciousness or subconscious rather, right,
12:15
right to go execute. It, yes, right, Yeah.
12:18
Do you know what I mean? Yeah, like, like there is the
12:20
conscience in which we do our daily things.
12:23
Like I grab a book, grab my phone, and then there's that
12:26
subconscious, right? Which So yeah, there's effort,
12:29
right? So that's that's what I'm trying
12:32
to say by impulse, is that the impulse also does not do we just
12:35
all, well, the flesh, I don't want to do this, but the flesh
12:37
wants to do this. I want to, but I don't want to.
12:42
What do you? What do you, what do you, what
12:44
do you, what do you see there? Like there's like I want to, but
12:47
I don't want to. Can the flesh speak?
12:52
No. It's only speaking because I'm
12:53
moving the muscle. Why am I moving the muscle?
12:55
Because the brain is releasing that information to move the
12:58
muscle. Because the brain is receiving
13:00
what from where? Wait, say that one more time.
13:06
Like your like your brain is sending signals for you to move
13:09
your muscles of your mouth to speak, right?
13:12
But where's the brain grabbing that information?
13:14
Oh, I see. I see what you're saying.
13:16
Was it? Is it grabbing it from the
13:17
flesh? If he's giving signal to the
13:19
flesh? No, no, no.
13:21
Exactly my point. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
13:23
So I want to, but I don't want to.
13:26
Yes, You have a subconscious. That's you thinking, That's your
13:30
spirit, that's your soul. You want to, but you don't want
13:33
to. Do you know what I mean?
13:34
Oh, yeah. So to be renewed every day.
13:41
It's because we need to walk step by step, walk side by the
13:46
Holy Spirit, be led by the Spirit to walk and think in the
13:49
Spirit, right, Right. You know what I mean?
13:51
Yeah, no, absolutely, absolutely.
13:54
Because like by default, right? Like our our nature just is is
14:00
naturally imposed to. Other things, right?
14:03
Christ said he'd use an example like you, you, you, you being
14:08
wicked, know how to do good, right?
14:11
There's a the capacity to do good, is there?
14:14
Always. Yeah, there.
14:15
But we are wicked. Yes, I agree.
14:17
Right, so to say, Adam and Eve ate from the from the fruit of
14:26
good and evil that now has been passed down through our genes,
14:31
right? So then when we grow up, we
14:35
learn how to lie and we learn how to do this, and we become
14:37
mischievous and rebellious and all these things, right?
14:41
And so that's when the impulses starts to come, because we're
14:44
selfish. Yeah.
14:46
No, we are. We're selfish, yeah.
14:50
I, I, if I put a kid right here, 5 year old kid and a four year
14:53
old kid, all right, like one of them's like, oh, she doesn't
14:56
want to give me that. Oh, he's a they don't know what
15:00
that means. They're just being selfish.
15:01
They want it for themselves. But if you teach them, no, you
15:05
got to share, right? Yeah, they will learn to share.
15:09
OK, here. Oh, yeah, Yeah, you have some.
15:13
I'll have some, right? Yeah.
15:15
Yeah. So then now they will know the
15:16
difference. Right.
15:18
Being selfish versus sharing now.
15:21
Right, right. They don't have an innate
15:25
reaction to want to share. No, 'cause they're selfish.
15:27
Right, but they learn to share. Right, a baby infant when
15:31
they're crying, he's being selfish.
15:32
He just wants to eat. He doesn't care if you sleep or
15:35
not. What does he know?
15:36
Yeah, You know what I mean? Yeah.
15:38
Yeah. He's being selfish.
15:39
He just wants to eat, Feed me. I want to sleep after that.
15:42
Right, right. You think he cares after you?
15:45
Oh, I don't want to cry because I don't want to wake up my mom,
15:47
you know, Because, you know, you think the baby's thinking that
15:50
there's. Nothing in that, no.
15:51
Exactly my point. So like we, we grow up, we learn
15:56
from our environment and we start to learn what things are
16:00
direct impulses of the flesh. And then other things are
16:03
impulsive to our hobbies, our passion.
16:06
Yeah, we are, we, we, we are a a human race that have the
16:13
capacity to express to the full extreme of that side or to this
16:19
side. Yeah.
16:20
Yeah, we we do. We are.
16:22
I don't know. That was a rap for me, right?
16:24
There. Yeah, yeah.
16:25
So yeah, I don't know. What are your thoughts on that?
16:27
On everything you just said, Yeah, no, I mean, basically what
16:30
I, what I got out of it is like, yeah, like for example, we have,
16:35
we have the flesh and you know, when our spirit, we have our
16:39
spirit, right? Our spirit has a capability,
16:43
too, of moving forward. Yes.
16:46
It does and. In other words, it wants to be
16:51
alive. Yes, yeah, yeah.
16:52
Yeah, but it's dead. Yes.
16:54
That dead part doesn't mean it's dead.
16:56
I mean, you're still thinking and seeing, right.
16:58
Dead meaning like, you're rotten, you're dead, you're
17:01
dead. Yeah, You, you're weak.
17:04
You, you. You do.
17:06
And the flesh responds, right. Yeah.
17:10
Yeah. Do you know what I'm saying?
17:11
No, no, no. But when it becomes alive, the
17:15
flesh is like this is a normal thing, why are we not
17:19
connecting? You see what I'm saying?
17:21
Yeah, yeah. No, exactly.
17:23
Because isn't isn't it that the flesh is hostile to the to the
17:26
spirit? Yeah, but see, that's a
17:27
different conversation. We're talking about impulse,
17:30
right? That's that's the.
17:31
So can I can't? No.
17:33
We've. I don't know if we've spoken.
17:34
About we've spoken a little bit about the flesh and the spirit.
17:37
They're contrary to each other. Yeah, we're talking about the
17:39
spirit, right? Your spirit and not what it
17:42
means to walk and think in the spirit that means is your spirit
17:46
is thinking and walking in the spirit meaning alongside the
17:50
spirit. Yeah, yeah.
17:52
We're talking we we've spoken about it, about the difference
17:56
of our flesh and our spirit inside too.
17:59
Right, right. But we've spoken about like, how
18:00
like the Spirit also like. Yes, but that's not necessarily
18:06
for today. OK, OK.
18:07
Because we're talking about impulse, right?
18:10
The only reason why I brought that up a little bit is because
18:12
what that means when one is impulsive, is it because it's
18:16
coming from the flesh or it's because it's really coming from
18:19
you and the flesh is just a receptor responding to that.
18:23
Right, right. Can you break it down a little
18:25
bit to for for those that don't understand?
18:27
What do you mean? Like no, just like simplify a
18:29
little bit. More so when I so when I go to
18:31
sleep. Uh huh.
18:34
Am I thinking about breathing? No, you just it's.
18:37
Just it's happening, right? I don't even know that I'm
18:40
breathing. I just go.
18:41
I fall asleep. That's a conscious thing that
18:44
the body does instinctually. Yeah.
18:46
Yeah. And you said conscious just goes
18:48
dormant, right? Right.
18:51
So the flesh is breathing. Mm, hmm.
18:55
There's a breath is breathing. You're, you know, you're
18:57
breathing. Mm Hmm.
18:59
The flesh is doing it. Now, for example, let's say you,
19:06
I can't believe I'm using this, but this is the most common. 1A
19:09
man has this attraction of a woman, woman, the attraction to
19:14
a man. There's an impulse to that.
19:16
It's like magnetic pull. You can, you're the flesh is
19:21
feeling it, but your mind can say no yes to it.
19:25
Yeah, I know that's true. Yes, do.
19:29
You understand? Yeah.
19:29
I do. I do.
19:31
OK. That's the receptor right there.
19:35
The flesh is is is saying we feel this.
19:38
Uh huh. OK, Do you know what I'm saying?
19:41
Yeah, yeah, yeah. The the subconscious would be
19:45
like, we don't want to do that, right.
19:48
So what's happening to the receptor now?
19:50
He can't execute that anymore. He can't execute the the full
19:53
extent of what it's feeling. Right.
19:55
So there's conflict, right? There you go, that's the
19:57
conflict. Oh, OK, OK.
19:58
So our impulse is. It just comes out to self.
20:02
There's self-control in the world.
20:04
There's like self. You can have self-discipline
20:07
without God. But the self-control that Paul
20:12
speaks about, that is the fruit of the spirit.
20:15
It's a self-control that's between the subconscious and the
20:18
flesh, right? It's not a disciplining of the
20:22
flesh outside where you, you go around 3 miles every day.
20:27
Mm hmm. That's, that's a self-control.
20:29
Yeah, right. That has nothing to do in
20:32
regards to temptation. Right, Right, right.
20:33
The fruit of the spirit of self-control is the self-control
20:38
that there is between you and essentially you.
20:43
I can't believe I'm saying it that way, but yeah, your spirit
20:45
in the flesh. Right.
20:48
Is that complicated? Maybe for some people I like.
20:52
I understand what you're saying, it's just it's hard to grasp it.
20:57
Interesting. That's what I said.
20:58
Can you see without you seeing? No, right?
21:04
No. No, it the eyeballs do the job.
21:07
Well, they do the job, but you're not there.
21:09
You're not there, Yeah. So how would you know?
21:12
Right Oh, now I now I connected it.
21:15
Basically, the eyes literally are the window to yourself like
21:21
to to what you see exactly. I see what you mean.
21:24
I see what you mean. So to a certain extent we always
21:27
blame the flesh, but there is this other part where it's like,
21:31
you sure it's your flesh or is it your subconscious that you
21:34
are? Exactly.
21:35
Accepting it. Exactly.
21:36
Oh, I see, because. The flesh is a receptor.
21:39
Yeah. But if you allow that receptor
21:41
to have its full extent, then then that's the in you that's
21:44
allowing it. Right, right, right, right.
21:47
And that part that's in you, you have to deny it, right?
21:49
Yes, that's the denial part. That's that's the that to that
21:52
impulse I see, right. Obviously had nothing to do with
21:56
like the gaming how you started it.
21:58
But I say it was an impulse because I'm like, all right,
22:02
well, you know, memories. You wanna Yeah, I get it.
22:07
Have nostalgia. And we live in a world where
22:09
everything is so ridiculously expensive, so you have no choice
22:13
like it was back in the day. But it's worth it because I'll
22:17
get to share with my brother. I'll get to share with my niece.
22:19
Yeah, yeah, yeah. My cousins can come back.
22:21
I care. They're more gamers than I am.
22:24
Oh, yeah. You know what I mean?
22:25
But yeah. So when it comes to impulse,
22:27
that that's that's a that's a that's a how it is.
22:34
That's what I'm trying to say. Yeah, I see, I see.
22:38
So it all depends on like I guess inside like within right?
22:44
Yeah, there is. close your eyes. You close your eyes.
22:48
Just whoever's listening, close your eyes.
22:51
It's just a thought experiment. close your eyes.
22:53
All right, Think of it this way. You're good with God.
22:57
You're always good with God. You're you're you know, you're
22:59
in that mode every day, looking, searching, reading Scripture.
23:02
You're doing your thing. You're practicing these
23:04
beautiful things that discipline the flesh to submit to the
23:08
Spirit because the Spirit submit it to the Holy Spirit.
23:10
OK, Then all of a sudden, right, just randomly, there's something
23:18
that happens around your environment that's impulsive to
23:20
your flesh. And when you have that thought
23:22
to want to do it, that's when you get butterflies in your
23:25
stomach because you want to do, but you can't.
23:27
Yeah, that right there. That's at that moment where your
23:32
fruit of the Spirit takes control.
23:34
When you get that little feeling in your stomach, 'cause you want
23:38
to do it, but you're like, no, I can't.
23:41
That's the little feeling in your stomach.
23:43
I don't know if that how you experience it.
23:46
Right, Right. But like for a guy for instance,
23:50
you know, for a guy when he's on his alone time and he thinks
23:54
about I want to do that. You know what I'm talking about.
23:56
Yeah, he gets that feeling. No, no, I can't do that.
23:59
No way. I can't do that.
24:01
It's the same thing on any any other any other level, right?
24:05
You get that feeling. Yeah.
24:06
Because that gut feeling doesn't.
24:08
It's not always anxiety or being nervous.
24:10
That gut feeling is like a little like little, a little a
24:14
little push. You're like, I want to do that,
24:17
but I, I can't. No, Yeah, yeah, yeah.
24:21
You're trust me. You're trust me.
24:24
Your bodies, your our bodies can literally give us signals of
24:29
like, like of a red flag. Hey, you're feeling this.
24:34
You're feeling this. Ignore it.
24:35
Ignore it. Uh huh.
24:37
There's a bunch of things happening in your in your, in
24:39
your, in your subconscious and conscious.
24:41
Like you can hear the voice of the Holy Spirit.
24:46
Not like that. You hear audibly.
24:49
You can, but you're also listening to your own spirit
24:54
subconscious. Yeah, when it wants to and when
24:57
it doesn't want to. But you can also hear the
24:59
enemies. So you're, you're hearing like 4
25:02
to 5 voices all at the same time.
25:04
You have to be able to discern because if you don't have proper
25:07
discernment and all these impulse are starting to happen
25:09
and you just yeah, it's going to collapse.
25:12
Exactly. I agree so.
25:13
Yeah, I don't know. All right, awesome.
25:16
That was that was a lot to take in.
25:20
Definitely for those that are listening, rehear it.
25:25
Yeah, I'm, I'm going to be rehearing this.
25:26
I'm not going to. Lie like, like I'm going to, I'm
25:28
going to say this one more time. You're not the only, you're not
25:33
the only voice in your head. Yeah.
25:35
If you walk with God, how Paul speaks about it, Peter and all
25:39
of them in the epistles and the Old Testament, you should be
25:43
able to discern, yeah, whose voice you are actually listening
25:47
to and whose voice you're not listening to.
25:50
I agree. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely.
25:54
No. Thank you for sharing that, bro.
25:55
That was really interesting. I'm definitely you.
25:58
Seem you seem overwhelmed. No, yeah, 'cause like, I mean, I
26:02
we've talked about this already, but the way you were explaining
26:05
it, I was trying to grasp everything.
26:07
Yeah, I don't know. That's always ice.
26:09
Yeah, yeah. No, I just think I don't.
26:11
Have to think about. It no, no, no.
26:12
I yeah, exactly. I just think it comes down to
26:15
those that are listening. I guess we we, I would rehear
26:19
this a few times. We'll think about it like, let's
26:22
say when you have a crush on someone, what do you feel?
26:25
Now you feel butterflies. Yeah.
26:26
Right. OK, but that's because you have
26:28
feelings for someone, right? How about when you're scared?
26:31
Like anxiety, Something dreadful is about to happen.
26:33
Where does it happen? Oh, it happens.
26:35
Right, like right there in the gut, right, That's that.
26:38
Or like you're excited, nervous about a race or a game.
26:41
Where do you feel that? Inside the gut, yeah.
26:43
It always has to be that little center right there, right?
26:47
But then there's that when you serving God and you are
26:50
detaching yourself, but then all of the sudden your flesh wants
26:53
to do something that it used to do before, what do you get?
26:56
You get those that. Gut feeling, yeah.
26:58
And that's when you say no, right?
27:01
And why are you nervous? Because you know, you might give
27:03
into. It right?
27:04
And that's the denial part, right?
27:05
That's the denial, Yeah, that's the impulse.
27:06
I'm trying to talk. That's the.
27:07
Part Yeah, absolutely. I don't know if people's ever
27:11
been able to see it that way. Right.
27:13
No, that's what I'm saying. That's why I those are listening
27:17
like rehear this a few times, yeah, cuz it is a lot to take
27:22
in. But no, it makes sense.
27:24
There is I think not many people talk about no.
27:26
Now that I think I know a lot of people don't talk about this,
27:29
there is a difference. Like the spirit, the flesh.
27:33
I mean, yeah, like we've spoken about.
27:35
Yeah, the most basic. About yeah, basic yeah, spirits
27:39
are. Contrary to each other.
27:40
Yeah, but I think this is a little deeper.
27:43
Yeah, because this in regards to impulse and we always how the
27:45
flesh, the flesh, the flesh, Yeah, Yeah, OK.
27:48
Right. It's not, yeah, it's not always
27:50
like that. Yeah.
27:52
Because there is that disciplining of the flesh,
27:54
right. But then there's just also like
27:56
other part where where it says renew your mind.
27:58
Yep, Yep. You know what I mean?
28:00
And then we have the spirit and then we have bad spirits and
28:02
then we have the Holy Spirit. So Paul literally says keep in
28:07
step, keep step by step with the Holy Spirit, you know, be next
28:11
to it, you know? So, yeah.
28:14
So for those that are listening, thank you.
28:17
For those that are new, welcome. You subscribe, share this with a
28:21
lot of people and we're going to continue this.
28:25
So we're going to end with a prayer.
28:26
I don't know if you want me to end it or.
28:28
No, whoa. Alright.
28:30
Thank you, father, for this opportunity to speak about the
28:35
importance of what it means to live in this world and, and, and
28:42
be confronted by impulses, distractions, and, and so many
28:47
offers that the world has, especially now in our modern
28:50
time. Thank you for allowing us to
28:53
speak about it. And may this be a refinement for
28:56

28:59
their walk with you each day being renewed in that washing of
29:07
the the robe on a daily basis. Thank you, Father, be the Holy
29:11
Spirit to see for us. He knows our thoughts more than
29:14

29:18
again we thank you for this opportunity.

So until the next time guys. Amen.
29:23
