Ep. Proverbs Ch. 3 (Trust issues) · Welcome To The Mber Show....'s podcast

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Alright, coming to you live from Alta Monte Springs, Florida.
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: This is the Emperse show. First and foremost, let's get
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: into prayer, Lord Father that arts in heaven. I come
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: to you in prayer to be able to have the
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Holy Spirit be able to speak through this MC and
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: be able to go through the listeners of years and
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: reach their hearts and minds and be able to apply
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: these verses to their lives and the Lord Jesus Christ's name,
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: I pray a men. Now we're gonna be in Proverbs
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: chapter three. And this episode in particular is aimed towards me.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: If it relates with you, then you might be very
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: similar to me when it comes to trust issues and
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: being able to obtain a healthy relationship is not something
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: that is very easy, especially when you don't necess necessarily
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: have a relationship with the Lord. And he was a
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: prime example of this. And this is why we're getting
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: in the word, because the best way to be able
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: to learn how to love correctly and romancely as well,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: is to be able to connect to the source, which
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: is Jesus Christ himself. I and I'm giving you a
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: little bit of time to grab your Bibles, like I said,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: we're going to be in Proverbs chapter three, and a
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: little bit of my experience with this having had relationships
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: as an alcoholic and a drug addict. Obviously those relationships
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: taught me a lot of lessons. They were not losses,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: even though at the time they felt like it. Regardless,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: everybody has their own ways of moving on. So I
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: want to make this clear that every different. Some people
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: it's easier for them to kind of move on or
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: they have other people to rely on. Not everybody has that,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: and I'm one of those people. Thank God that I
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: have that relationship with Jesus. But at the same time,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: this doesn't make it any easier that sometimes, especially as
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: of recently, I've had a bad day and I thought
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: a lot of negative emotions and thoughts about my significant
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: other because I didn't hear from her. And this isn't
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: the first time. So I'm telling on myself as well,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: because how can I improve if I'm not honest? And
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: as I record this, I'm outside my mom's nursing home
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: and this just needs to be addressed. And not only
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: do you the listener need to hear this, I need
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: to hear this as well, because whether this relationship works
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: or not. I desire to have a long life partner
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: that never gives up on me and I never give
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: up on them, and to be where I'm at today.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: It's sometimes confusing, but the power of prayer can bring
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: two together. Amen, let's just jump into it because it
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: is time. I've given you enough time to read along
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: as you hear it along and we're going to be
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: in Proverbs chapter three, and we're going to get to
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: the main one. But I'm going to start with number
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: one Proverbs chapter three, Verse one. Trust God in all things,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Verse one, My child, do not forget what I teach you.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Always think carefully about my commands. If you obey them,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: you will live a long life. You will have peace
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: in your mind, and you will enjoy your life. Easier
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: said than done, sometimes right, because when you look at
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: being connected with God, you'll hear a lot of people
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: talk about, oh, do you go to church? What church?
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Do you go to? This? And that church is a
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: great place, it's the hospital for sinners. But what you
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: really need to focus on, and I say this is
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: a lot of my episodes, is that relationship with Jesus Christ.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: And not only that, but do your research on Jesus Christ.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: How do you do that? In the Bible, there's different stories,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Passion of the Christ, the Chosen. If you don't like reading,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: that's okay. There's movies and having that peace of mind
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: that I've obtained. Even when I'm wrong, I have to
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: face myself and give it to God and allow him
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: to correct me. I can't do it on my own.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: I've tried to, been there, done that, wrote the book,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: got the shirt, signed the book. You know so verse three,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Keep hold of faithful love. MM, I'm gonna do that.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: That will be like a beautiful necklace that you always wear.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Think about what it means to love other people. Verse four.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: If you do that, you will make God happy. People
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: will always be pleased, and they will always respect you.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Holding on to this faithful love is something that comes
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: from up above, but us in the flesh. Sometimes we
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: have our thoughts and our emotions consume us, and we
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: can't allow spirit to really lead. And that's why I
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: say it's in a lot of my episodes. I say
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: that it's about putting that consciousness of Christ on each
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: and every day right and being able to have your
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: free will and take it off sometimes and where I'm
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: gonna get at is the best version of me is
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: not even displayed yet because there's a lot of cleaning
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: up that I'm allowing the Holy Spirit to do. So
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: there's gonna be some things that come to surface that
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: concern me because it's necessarily the old version of me
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: that is not completely dead yet. And as the new
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: version is downloaded and transformed, meaning myself and yourself, we
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: have to have patience with ourselves. We're gonna make mistakes,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: We're gonna have trial and error, and as long as
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: you can be able to put the ego and the
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: pride aside. Because I'm only two years in recovery, the
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: ego and pride is not dead, so I have to
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: put it to the side. I have to realize that
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: in order to please God, I have to put my
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: emotions and my thoughts to the side. And I don't
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: do that all the time. I'll admit that. But God's
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: not done with me yet. He's not done with you either.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Verse five, and we'll go ahead and close out between
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: seven and eight. So trust this is this is this
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: is the most important verse out of Proverbs chapter three.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: It's five and six, So please listen. Proverbs Chapter three,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Verse five, trust in the Lord completely. Do not think
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: that you understand things well enough for yourself. Ooh, that's
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: what I needed to hear right there, Because even though
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: I have been betrayed, even though I have been neglected,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: even though I have been abused, even though I have
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: all this, I have to trust that the Lord is
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: going to be continuously my shepherd, and God is going
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: to put the right people in my life at the
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: right time and meet at the right time no matter what.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to make this about anybody in particular
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: besides me, because I'm not trying to gain something that
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: is lost, trying to gain something that has been hurt.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: And verse six is just as important whatever you are doing,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: that the Lord is with you, then he will show
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: you the right way to go. When we make mistakes,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: there's a way out. When we make mistakes, we have
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: to own up. We have to apologize. Whether the person
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: accepts it or not, that's on them and God and
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: everybody has their own rights to make choices whether to
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: stay or to leave. And this is mainly focused on
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: healthy relationships because, like I stated, that's what I desire,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: having that healthy relationship with Jesus and being able to
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: help my significant other help herself. That is my priority.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Number three and but one is God's will following Jesus.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Two is AA recovery. Three is my significant other, four
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: is my brother. Five is my mother. Those five things
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: that I have listed is my main focus. As you
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: can see, I'm not really on that list because for
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: twenty something years I was the only one on the list,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: and there were times where I hit jams and called
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: upon the Lord. Been a believer for a long time,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: but following and believing are two different things. Verse six.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Whatever you were doing, remember that the Lord is with you.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Then he will show you the right. Well, we already
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: said this, so verse seven, I'm sorry, do not think
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: that you are already wise enough. Obey the Lord and
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: refuse to do evil things. If you do that, it
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: will make you healthy and strong. The consistency right like
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: going to the gym. If you want to build muscle,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: you continue to do the exercises. The more and more
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: that you continue to do good, the more consistency that
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: is shown not only pleases God, but it pleases you.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: And if you want to do the next right thing
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: verse nine, show that you respect the Lord in the
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: way that you use your money, offer the first part
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: of the harvest from your farm to him. Now, what
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: is this stating if you haven't heard giving tithing ten
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: of your earnings doesn't have to necessarily be to a church.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: It could be to an organization, it could be to somebody. Indeed,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: but do it to glorify God. Don't do it to
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: boast you Verse ten. If you do that, you will
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: store more food than you need for yourself. You will
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: have more wine than you can drink. Verse eleven. My child,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: if the Lord warns you that you have done something wrong,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: accept it. Do not be upset if he warns you
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: Verse twelve, and we'll go ahead and close out. He
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: is doing it's because he loves you. When a father
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: loves his son very much, he warns him when he
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: does something wrong. And for instance, I felt very ashamed
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: for something that I've done recently, and just being very
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: inconsiderate of where someone's at one two and their preference
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: of how they do things. And at the end of
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: the day, I do not have any regrets. But I
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: also know that in order for me to be all
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: I can be for somebody is continue to heal, continue
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: to recover my mind, continue to restore. God, grant me
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: to know the difference. Be patient, kind, be considerate, and
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: the best is yet to come. And I say that
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: because I know now exactly what I need to do.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Just having this less than fifteen minute segment of reading
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: proverbs and reading exactly what I needed. I hope that
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: it was able to help you pray to Jesus. But also,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: don't believe everything that you hear, whether it's from people, places,
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: or things. I'm even talking about the church. Not every
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: church is good, not every organization program has goodness in it.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Take what you need and leave the rest. Let the
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: Holy speak give your rest, Let the Holy Spirit do
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: the things it needs to do. But you cannot do
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: that without having the relationship with Jesus Christ. This is
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: the Ember show your host. Ember. I love you, even
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: though I don't know you someone in particular, if you're
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: listening to this, I'm still here. I'm still in love
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: with you. And as I've been patient with you, please
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: be patient with me. Don't give up. If you need
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: your space. I know that better now than I did before.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: I'm still growing, I'm still improving. Please allow me to
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: show you. Please. When you hear this, please contact me
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: because I've texted you three times, but I ain't gonna
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: continue to thank you.
