  Speaker 3: you with some hot chh heat and we hold each
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: other accountable and we love the lord and love one
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: another as he commands us to do today We are
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: continuing in Jeremiah chapter 19. So grab your Bibles, your
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: notepads and your highlighters. We're going to pick up at
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: verse 10 and we're going to go from 10 to 15.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: And that is going to complete chapter 19. I cannot
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: believe we are almost done. We're going through this book
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: and this is one of the bigger books. They call it,
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: they consider it a major prophet. They got major prophets
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: and minor prophets in the Old Testament and And that's
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: only because of the size of their books. And so
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: if you've been following with us from day one, give
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: yourself a hand clap because this is quite an accomplishment
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: to go through these books together. So today we're going
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: to talk about, well, actually yesterday we saw why God's
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: judgment was coming against Judah. They had forsaken God. They
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: didn't just simply make a mistake. No, they turned to
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: idolatry and repeatedly rejected his warnings. Just straight out. They
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: just said they're going to follow the evil dictates of
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: our own hearts.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: That sounds like Satan worship to me, right? You're deliberate
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: on your actions and what you're doing. And so now
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: Jeremiah says, Is going to take that potter's bottle. And
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: he's going to break it. The guy uses. That broken bottle.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: As a picture. Of what was about to happen. To
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: the city of Jerusalem. So this is going to be.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Another difficult passage. But there is an important lesson. That
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: we're going to get out of it. And we should understand.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: That we should never. Mistake. God's patience for his approval.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: That is a deadly mistake. And hopefully you're listening to
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: this podcast and you will avoid it at all costs
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: and that I will avoid it at all costs. Amen.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: Let's go before Father. Hello, Heavenly Father. We thank you
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: for another day, another opportunity, another beautiful day that you've made.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: We will rejoice and be glad in it. We ask, Lord,
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: that you go before us. Lord, you know the battles
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: that are ahead. You know the struggles that we face.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: We ask for breakthrough in every area, breakthrough in our finances,
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: breakthrough in our marriages, breakthrough with our children, our parenting, breakthrough,
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: oh God, in our legacy, the generation that comes behind us. Breakthrough, Lord,
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: we want to see our family members saved, healed, delivered,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: living blessed lives. Oh, Lord, and we ask that you
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: prepare us for the day that you return, Lord, that
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: we will not be caught unawares or that we will
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: not be ashamed, but let us be intentional. Help us
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: to fast and pray. We ask for your grace. And
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: we ask that you would just touch this podcast. Lord,
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: let it be anointed. Let it be blessed in your name.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: We ask this in Jesus name. Amen. All right, family,
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: let's go from verse 10 in verse 11. Let's tackle
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: two verses right now. Then you shall break the flask
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: in the sight. of the men who go with you
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: and say to them thus says the Lord of hosts
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: even so I will break this people and this city
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: as one breaks a bottle's vessel which cannot be made
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: whole again and they shall bury them in tafet till
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: there is no place to bury Wow, now this is
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: very different from the potter's vessel. Man. All right, so
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: God tells Jeremiah to take the bottle he had purchased
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: and break it in the sight of the men who
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: had gone with him. I can imagine being one of
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: these men. I would have repented right then and there.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Like what? Then God gives Jeremiah the message behind it,
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: the object lesson. He says, even so will I break
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: this people and this city. That's a powerful change from
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: chapter 18. Now let's understand the character of God right here.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: Do you see the United States in this message? I
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: have a heart for this country. I know that this
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: country has had its problems with prejudice and this country
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: has done some crazy things throughout the world. I'm not
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: blind to that. But the simple fact that we have
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: the freedom to worship God in this country. Other countries
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: do not. have the freedoms that we take for granted
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: and are slowly losing. Once this antichrist system, this beast
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: system comes into full effect, you can say goodbye to
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: the freedoms and the liberties that we have enjoyed and
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: taken from granted. There's no doubt that the fingerprint of
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: God is on this nation. There's been waves of revival,
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: waves of movements of God in this nation. This nation
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: has reached the world with the gospel. And so it
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: is heartbreaking to see the United States of America turn
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: away from God and turn to darkness. And I pray
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: that we will not get to the place where we
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: will be a broken bottle in the hands of our father.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: We don't want that. Let us take heed to the
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: warning now and repent and turn back to him. Now,
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: the reason why this is different from the clay, because
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: the clay could be reshaped. But now we're looking at
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: a hardened vessel that has to be broken. Once you
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: become hard, once you harden your heart against God, there
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: is no choice. The broken bottle has a prophetic symbol
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: behind it. The bottle represented Judah's hardened hearts, their hardened
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: condition in the coming destruction of Jerusalem. Unlike soft clay
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: that can be reshaped, a hardened vessel that is broken
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: cannot simply be put back together in its former condition.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: That is a warning for all of us. Don't allow
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: your heart to become hardened. Amen. That's the last thing
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: you want is to harden your heart against the gospel
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: of Jesus Christ. Every time God corrects you and you
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: ignore him, you become a little more comfortable ignoring him.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: Just think about it. That is scary. Every time you
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: compromise and justify it, it becomes easier to compromise again
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: and again. And I've gone down this path. This has
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: been me. I know this to be true. Every time
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: you hear the truth and refuse to respond, you risk
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: becoming less sensitive to the truth. That is so scary.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: That is terrifying and dangerous. Dangerous and hazardous to our
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: own souls. So when God puts his finger on something
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: in your life, don't say, I'll deal with it later.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: Deal with it right here and right now.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: Amen. Verse 11. And say to them. Thus says the
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Lord of hosts. Even so, I will break this people
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: and this city as one breaks a potter's vessel, which
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: cannot be made whole again. They shall bury them in
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: Tophet till there is no place to bury them. Now,
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: God says the judgment would be so severe that there
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: would be not enough room to properly bury the dead.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: Isn't that crazy? I remember watching military type movies about
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: certain wars and that sometimes they had to bury the
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: soldiers in a mass grave. on top of each other, right?
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: And this right here was not an empty threat. God
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: was warning them about something that would actually happen. Sometimes
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: we don't like talking about judgment and we prefer to
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: talk about God's blessing, right? That's what you hear most
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: of the time in church is God's blessing. God wants
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: you to prosper and be happy, but We want to
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: hear about God's love. We want to hear that God
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: has a plan for you. God wants to bless you.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: And those things are very true. But God's word also
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: tells us that God is a holy God. God's word
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: tells us that sin matters. Choices matter. And rebellion has consequences.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: We need the whole counsel of God, not just the
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: parts that make us comfortable and feel fuzzy and warm.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: We need to see, I mean, we're going, that's why
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: we're going verse by verse. We need to see all
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: sides of God because we got to stand before him
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: one day and give an account of our lives. And
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: we need to turn this around Beloved, I encourage you
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: to send this podcast to all your family members. This episode.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: I do have a YouTube link. Just either go to
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: our website, HisHotNation.com and you can find it on the
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: homepage or go to YouTube itself and just type in
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: His Hot Nation and start sending these links out. I mean, yeah,
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: I would like to get a bigger following, you know,
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: like to get subscribers up and all this and any
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: other but most importantly I bet you that a majority
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: of them are not hearing this message in church not
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: all God has a faithful remnant God has his faithful
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: pastors and his faithful churches out there I'm not saying
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: that he doesn't but It's an exception when it should
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: be the rule. Amen. Every church should teach and preach
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: messages like this.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: It looks like you lost another one.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: All right. 12 and 13. Thus, I will do to
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: this place, says the Lord and to its inhabitants. and
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: make this city its like Tophet, and the houses of
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah shall
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: be defiled like the place of Tophet, because of all
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: of the houses on whose roofs they have burned incense
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: to all the hosts of heaven, And poured out drink
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: offering on other gods. Wow, God is a jealous God. Amen.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: It looks like you lost another one. All right, let's
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: break it down, family. Now, God says that he will
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: make Jerusalem like Tophet.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: Why?
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: Because the people had defiled their houses and the places
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: where they worshipped by burning incense to other gods. So
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: be careful, beloved, when you're burning sage or you're burning anything, right?
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: Our souls need to burn for the Lord. Now, because
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: the people had defiled They had taken things that belonged
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: to God and filled them with idols. Now, the connection
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: between the people's spiritual rebellion and the coming physical judgment,
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: their idolatry had corrupted the very places that should have
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: been dedicated to worshiping God. And that is sad. There's
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: a principle here that goes beyond ancient Judah. What you
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: allow into your heart eventually affects your life. Let me
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: say this again. What you allow into your heart eventually
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: affects your life. If you fill your heart with God's word,
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: it will influence how you think and how you live.
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: But if you continually fill your mind with things that
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: pull you away from God, those things will eventually influence
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: your decisions as well. So the question is, what is
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: coming into your life? What are you watching on TV
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: or on the Internet? What are you listening to? Hopefully
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: you're listening to the His Heart Radio app.
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: Amen.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: 24-7, shameless plug. Who are you allowing to influence you?
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: What are you consistently thinking about? All of those things matter.
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: Every little bit of it. Amen. Now, after delivering God's message,
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: Jeremiah takes another, well, actually, let's get verse, where are we?
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: Hold on a second. I lost my place. We should
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: be at verse 14. Okay. Then Jeremiah came from Tophet,
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: where the Lord had sent him to prophesy. And he
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: stood in the court of the Lord's house and said
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: to all the people, Thus says the Lord of hosts,
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: the God of Israel. Behold, I will bring on this
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: city and on all her towns all the doom that
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: I have pronounced against it, because they have stiffened their
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: necks that they might not hear my words. One thing
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: I love about God is he explains it, right? He
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: puts it in plain language. All right, let's look into it.
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: So he returns to the house of the Lord. Then
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: he speaks to all the people. Now, there's something here
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: we need to notice. Jeremiah doesn't stop preaching because the
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: message is unpopular. Right? Just like the day and the
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: time that we're living in now. our message is becoming
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: more and more unpopular what are we going to do
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: as God's people shrink back and stop preaching God forbid
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: amen Jeremiah goes back to deliver the message. Now that
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: is what faithfulness looks like. Jeremiah didn't get to choose
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: an easy assignment. God gave him a difficult message for
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: difficult people. And Jeremiah delivered it. That's a challenge for
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: anybody involved in ministry today. Sometimes You won't get applause.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: Sometimes people won't like what you say. Sometimes the message
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: God gives you won't be popular. But if God gives
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: you an assignment, be faithful to fulfill that assignment. And
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: I can say that I believe with all my heart
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: I fulfilled the assignment that was given unto me when
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: I preached my mother's eulogy, even though there was an interruption,
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: even though my aunt Susan got offended and publicly rebuked me.
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: I believe that like Jeremiah, I had to preach a
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: difficult message. Verse 13, it says, I will bring upon
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: this city all the evil. Now, Jeremiah tells the people
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: that God is going to bring upon Jerusalem the calamity
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: he had warned about. And then he gives a reason
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: because they have hardened their necks that they might not
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: hear my words. There it is, family. They hardened their necks.
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: They refused to listen. They refused correction. They refused to
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: turn around. That is the real danger. It's not simply
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: that you make a mistake. We all make mistakes, beloved.
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: The danger is when God corrects you and you decide
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: I'm not listening. That's a hardened heart. A soft heart says, Lord,
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: show me what needs to change. A hardened heart says,
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: nobody is going to tell me what to do. And
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: there is a huge difference between both hearts. Amen. I
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: pray that our prayer, add that to the top of
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: our prayer list. Lord, show me what needs to change
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: in my life. Amen. Do not harden your heart. Jeremiah 19,
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: 10-15 gives us a powerful warning. God warns before judgment.
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: He gives Judah opportunities to repent. Repeated rebellion hardens the heart.
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: The more we reject correction, the easier it becomes to
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: reject it. Sin affects more than just the individual. Judah's
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: rebellion affected families, communities, and the entire nation. God's patience
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: has a purpose. His patience gives us an opportunity to
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: turn things around. So, beloved, beloved, please respond when God
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: speaks to us. Don't wait. Don't assume you always have
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: another opportunity to correct what God has placed his finger on.
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: Tomorrow is not promised. The Bible says that today is
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: the day of salvation. Do not allow the enemy to
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: deceive us. All right. On that note, let's take a break.
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: You are listening to the light of Las Vegas. This
• 24:40
  Speaker 5: is the His Hop Radio Show.

  Speaker 2: the love songs about me, I thought you would be
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: excited to meet. But instead you dropped down right to
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: your knees and you started begging for your life that
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: was weak. You love it when these rappers talk about
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: how they will aim me and leave some brains leaking.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: Don't you want to see me live in action? I
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: thought you would want the same treatment.
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: I don't get it.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: You've been praising me faithfully. Now your vibe ain't the
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: same when you're facing me. You love murder till it
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: hits home. That's a double standard and I hate it.
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: It's fake to me.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: Amen, four pounds and I'm dangerous I was made to
• 26:25

  Speaker 2: back There is something so musical about the cries of
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: a grieving mother at funeral. And there's nothing more beautiful
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: than a kid's corpse in the touch of the view.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: And you will say it's disgusting that you would do hypocrisy,
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: something you humans do. Cause if we were to go
• 27:01

• 27:06

  Speaker 5: I'm begging don't shoot. You are listening to The Light
• 28:37
  Speaker 5: of Las Vegas. This is the HizHop Radio Show.
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: All right, y'all. We are back from the break. That
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: is our brother Dayton. Song from his new art project.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: Make sure you support those who have been faithfully on
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: the front line. And Dayton is definitely a soldier. Hey, man,
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: I want to give a huge shout out to the
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: live chat. Shout out to our brother Zone. I appreciate you, brother,
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: for showing up faithfully, for being the trivia champion. And also,
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: I saw you log into the new community yesterday. I
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: wasn't able to finish out the podcast. with you yesterday
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: I saw your post I'm hitting you up today just
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: to let you know man I appreciate it and that
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: you did get the right answer for the trivia and
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: let me know what you think about this platform our
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: community platform That we're using. See if you can upload
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: a profile pic. And all that good stuff. And I
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: believe if you want to post a video. It has
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: to be a link. You don't necessarily upload it. I
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: mean which is cool. But yes. It's another spot where
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: we can. Use to build our online community. And of
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: course always come into the live chat. We're going to
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: live chat first, but once we go so far in
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: a live chat, some of the conversations begin to disappear
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: because it's like a chat room. We have another platform
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: where we can go back in the archives if you
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: want to look up a question or a scripture or
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: something from like a month ago. We can do so
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: in the community and make it more You know, just,
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: you know, more functional, I guess, is what I'm trying
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: to say for the community we're trying to build or
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: trying to disciple online. This is a discipleship radio station,
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: discipleship podcast. We hold each other accountable, which is a
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: great segue to go into our accountability partner segment. So
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: this week, ask your partner, where do you see me
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: becoming resistant to God's correction? Like where is there anyone?
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: Let me ask this. Is there anyone in your life
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: close enough to you to be able to see this?
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: Because this is dangerous to us. The Bible says that
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: if we sin against God, we hate our own souls.
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: We love death to ignore his word. So I pray
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: that we do not harden our hearts, that our hearts
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: will not become hardened, that we will develop a habit
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: of saying yes to God and not saying no to
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: him and justifying him. And beloved, I'm guilty. I'm going
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: to repent before the end of this podcast. Even though
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: this is a tough question, but that's what accountability is
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: supposed to do. Not just encourage you, but And not
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: just to agree with you. Sometimes your accountability partner needs
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: to tell you, I think you're heading in the wrong direction.
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: And you need to humble yourself and listen to the
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: correction of God. Amen. Also, we want to let you
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: know that His High Radio is a monitored and a
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: reporting radio station. We do have a couple of charts
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: that we send all the information to your spend data.
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: We monitor every time your song gets played. And if
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: you want to rise up and become number one on
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: the charts, submit your music on our website, his hot nation.com.
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: The submissions tab, fill out all the info and check
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: out our promo packages. Very affordable. And that's going to
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: help you get the exposure you are looking for. All right, beloved.
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: It is time for today's trivia challenge. We're trying to
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: make it a little more harder, a little more challenging
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: at the request of Mrs.
• 33:50
  Speaker 4: Hop.
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: So.
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: The scripture reference is going to be Jeremiah 19, 1
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: through 10. So fall back and read it if you
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: need to and answer this question. What specific object did
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: Jeremiah break as a prophetic sign? And what did God
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: say that a broken object represents? Let me ask it again.
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: What specific object did Jeremiah break as a prophetic sign
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: and what did God say that broke that broken object
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: represents amen amen the first to answer that as always
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: will be our champion for today I don't know. We're
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: still making adjustments. I'm thinking I'm not going to give
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: the scripture reference and make y'all think a little harder.
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: And so let us know, give us feedback. We're always
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: adjusting and making adjustments. Time for our community love, our
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: community shout outs. We give you updates about our activities
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: in the community. And also if you got an event
• 35:24

• 35:26
  Speaker 3: to announce it here on the station. We are a

  Speaker 3: an event coming up August 29th coming up this Saturday.
• 35:45

• 36:16
  Speaker 3: we cleaned up some of the links. There were some
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: links that were not working. So. We got rid of
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: them or we refreshed them so they can work and
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: we organized it a little more. So if you click
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: on the event tab, the drop down will fall and
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: you'll see our calendar. You'll see all of our activities

  Speaker 3: those are the events that are hosted by us, His
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: Hop Nation. and probably some events that we support others on,
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: but it is a place so that you can know

• 37:06
  Speaker 3: So if you can make it out, please do. And
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: also mark your calendar for September 12th, another event that
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: we were invited to go to, to support. This one
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: will be at the Doolittle Center. I've, been trying to
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: get down there for years so we have an opportunity
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: to minister there that is a rough side of town
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: but we believe that God has ministry for that area
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: so pray for us and if you want to come
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: down and minister there's a spot for artists to come
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: and minister as well so definitely go to our website
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: or app and get in touch with us To get
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: more information about that. I have not posted the flyer yet.
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: For that one. Because we're trying to. Get past this
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: one first. The one in August. But I'll probably put
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: it out today. Because September 12th. Is coming pretty quick.
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: Also we want to let you know. That His Hop Nation. Nation. Inc.
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: is a nonprofit organization. We are a 501c3. We opened
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: up a Christian club in 2012, and I'm still trusting
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: and believing God that we will relaunch, reopen another one.
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: I'm just trying to be diligent and secure finances, secure support.
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: I'm a firm believer in where God guides, He provides.
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: But also God wants his children to be involved in support.
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: I do believe in tithing. I believe in giving offering.
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: And so we got our business house in order. We're
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: asking our community, our brothers and sisters in Christ, those
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: who want to see change, those who want to evangelize
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: and reach our community. We're asking you to give. We're
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: asking you to become monthly supporters, donors, sponsors. We're asking
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: if you know about grants or if you know how
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: to write a grant that you would get in touch
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: with us. You can do all that on our website, hishopnation.com.
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: also do that on the app His Hop Radio on
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: all platforms and you can do it on our non-profit
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: website hishopnation.org we appreciate you applause Now, we're going to
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: close it out and we're going to actually pray into
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: this podcast because I feel I need to pray. I'm
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: going to protect my heart. Amen. So this is a
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: sobering passage. Jeremiah breaks the bottle in the broken bottle
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: becomes a picture of what was going to happen to Jerusalem.
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: Because the people had hardened their hearts, God had spoken.
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: They did not listen. God had warned them. They did
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: not respond to his warnings. God called them to repentance,
• 40:32
  Speaker 3: and they refused to do so. And eventually, their continued
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: rebellion brought consequences. Here's what I want you to take
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: away from today's lesson. Don't wait until your heart becomes hard.
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: If God is speaking to you today, respond today. If
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: you need to apologize, apologize. If you need to forgive, forgive.
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: If you need to walk away from something, walk away.
• 41:05
  Speaker 3: If you need to repent, repent. Don't keep saying, I'll
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: do it later. later isn't promised. God's correction is not rejection. God,
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: when God corrects you, he's giving you an opportunity to
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: get back on the right path. Amen. So keep your
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: heart soft, stay humble, stay teachable, stay in the word.
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: And when God speaks, Listen. Amen. So let's go ahead
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: and pray. Heavenly Father, thank you for your word. Thank
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: you for correcting us when we go in the wrong direction, Lord.
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: Search our hearts today. Show us any area where we
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: have become stubborn, resistant, or even hardened, oh God. Forgive
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: us for times we've heard your voice and ignored it.
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: Forgive us for the times we've known what was right
• 42:17
  Speaker 3: and still chose our own way. Give us hearts that
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: are soft towards you, God. Give us ears that hear
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: your word, Father. Give us courage to repent and give
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: us strength to make the changes you are calling us
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: to make, Lord. Don't Let us become so comfortable in
• 42:43
  Speaker 3: sin that we stop recognizing your correction. Keep us close
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: to you, Father. Bless every listener of His Hot Radio.
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: Bless their families, their ministries, their work, and their communities.
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: Bless His Hot Nation and continue using this ministry to
• 43:02
  Speaker 3: reach people through Christian Hip Hop Radio Podcast Outreach and
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: with your word. Let everything we do point people back
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: to Jesus. In the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ,
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: we pray. And remember, it's not about us. It's all
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: about the Christ in us. God bless.
