• 0:01
  Speaker 1: All right, coming to you live from Alta, Monte Springs, Florida.
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: This is the Ember show your host Ember. First and foremost,
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: let's get into prayer, Lord Father that.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Arts in heaven.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: I come to you in prayer to be able to
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: have the Holy Spirit, to be able to speak through
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: this mic and get through the listener's ears and be
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: able to reach their hearts and minds and be able
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: to apply these verses to their lives.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: And the Lord Jesus Christ name I pray. Amen.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: So we're gonna be in Matthew chapter nineteen tonight. We'll
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: go through probably about one through fifteen. If you want
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: to go ahead and grab your bibles or get on
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: your Bible lap and read along as you hear along,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: I highly encourage it. If you just are listening, I
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: also highly encourage that you just block out the noise,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: stay locked in. Jesus teaches that husbands and wives must
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: stay together. M I love this title even though I'm
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: not married, but I'm in an intimate relationship that's going
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: to eventually God willing lead to that. So this is
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: going to be able to be applied to me.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: And I love the.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Gospel of Matthew. My goodness verse one. When Jesus had
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: finished saying all these things, he went away from galley.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: He went to the part of Judah that is on
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: the east side of the Jordan River Verse two. Large
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: crowds followed Jesus there he made the sick people well again.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Some pharisees came to talk to Jesus. They wanted to
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: see how they would answer their question. They asked, can
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: a man send his wife away so that she is
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: no longer his wife? Is it right for him to
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: do that for any reason he chooses?
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: And this is verse four?
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: This is Jesus replied, you surely have read about this
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: in the Bible in the beginning. When God created the world,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: he made people male and female verse five. Because of this,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: a man leaves his father and his mother, God joins
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: him and his wife together. The man in the world
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: woman become like one body. I want to go through
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: these first five verses, and Jesus is very clear about this.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Of course, when you're.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Brought up right, your spring up right, you're with your mom,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: you're with your dad, or you're with your mom, or
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: you're with your dad.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: Sometimes people have, you know, single parents, and.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: There's everybody has a different upcoming, right, But if a
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: man finds a wife or a wife finds a husband,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: that is a blessing.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Right. So Jesus is also.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Applying here that it needs to be one with the
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: male and the female.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: Okay, this is something that.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: You are so connected to your immediate family that the
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: way they raise you and the way that you are taught,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: and then you grow up and you become mature and
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: you start learning things on your own, you start meeting people.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: It's kind of interesting, right how Like you know, a
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: lot of.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Our parents would say a lot of our parents would say,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: don't talk to strangers. And it's interesting because we did
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: talk to strangers. Everybody before we met them, right, was
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: a stranger. We did not know them. Now, I think
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: that really replied and applied to them. Sorry that don't
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: talk to strangers the people that are strange. But I
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: mean there's two different ways of looking at that, right.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: You have to be very cautious. Cautious and paranoid.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: Sometimes there's a thin borderline. Right.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: So verse six, they are not two separate people any longer.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Now we're talking about the male and the female that
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: are one. They have come together as one person. That's
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: a healthy relationship, having the male and the female become one,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: not like they're you know, cat dog, you know the cartoon.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: But this is something where we're talking about working together,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: helping each other. It's a great thing when you find
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: a wife, when you find a husband, God has put
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: them together to be husband and wife. Oh, let me,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: let me repeat that sentence, because there's so many people
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: that are looking in the wrong places all right, Like,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: and I'm talking to a lot of men. I'm gonna
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: be a little.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Sexist on this one.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Everyone's looking for that hottie, everybody's looking for that baddie.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Everybody's looking for the one, right. It's almost like.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: You're setting yourself up.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: Because after attraction, if there's no compatibility, if there's no chemistry,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: that person ain't gonna always look beautiful. And God has
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: to put them together to be husband and wife. So
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: nobody should make them separate. Only God can put two
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: together that's going to actually last. There's a lot of
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: great stories out there of marriages that have last, that
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: have lasts. Now, I understand we live in a society
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: today where everything is you know, the lustice is thriving,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: you know, and there's so many different apps, and there's
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: so much cheating going on. There's so much. Everybody has
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: a side piece, and I don't want to say everybody,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: because just like I stated before, that is that there's
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: a lot of stories out there that husbands and wives
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: stayed together work things out. Not everything's going to be well.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: You're happy all the time. When God has put something together,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: it's going to sometimes push you, especially when it's somebody
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: that's there with you every day, and you have to
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: find that balance, right. You have to have your time
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: for yourself. You have to have time for your career.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: You have to have time for God, especially God, to
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: have time for God.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: You know, it's especially a couple.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: That prays together stays together, but it has to be consistent.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Now verse seven, Then the Pharisee said to Jesus, Moses
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: said that a man could write a letter to say
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: that he and his wife are no longer married. Then
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: the man can send the woman away. Why did Moses
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: say this, Jesus answered them, Moses said this because you
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: people did not want to obey God. Oh, everybody that
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: gets divorced, they.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: Don't want to obey God.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Now, let me get deeper hold on but it was
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: different in the beginning when God made the world verse nine.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: But now I say to you, a man must not
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: send his wife away and marry another woman. If he
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: does that, it is the same as if he had
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: sex with another man's wife. A man may only send
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: his wife away if she has had sex with another man. Oh,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: let me get an ade, man, because I love this
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: and I'm all about this last sentence. A man may
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: only send his wife away if she has had sex
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: with another man. I have been through this in relationship
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: that has transpired.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: It was in my early twenties.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: But the woman that I was with cheated on me.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: And yes, I was young, and I was in my
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: believing stage, very early believing, just believing.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Stage following christ.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: Journey, and I forgave her and we tried to work
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: it out.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: And.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Obviously it didn't work out. And that's okay, you know.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: And I don't have any regrets, you know. It's like
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: I had to learn, you know, And this is really
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: this is for me. This these I'll tell you what,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: how much the time we got, we got plenty of time, right, yes,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: we do. This is for me tonight, and I know
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: it might be for somebody else that's listening, But this
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: is for me. I needed this, and I'm gonna I'm
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: gonna do another part two on this because I ain't
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: got really much else to do tonight. So we're gonna
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: We're gonna dive deep. We're gonna dive deep.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: Verse ten.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Jesus disciples said to him, you say that this is
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: what it is like for a man and his wife,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: and maybe it is better if people do not marry.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Jesus replied, not everyone can agree with this idea, but
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: God has helped some people to accept it. There are
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: several different reasons why a person may not marry. Some
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: men cannot have sex they were born like that. Some
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: people cannot have sex because of people of other people
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: did something to them. Some people choose not to have sex.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: They do not marry because they can work better for
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: God and his kingdom. Anyone who can accept this idea
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: should do it. It's not all about you finding the
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: love of your life. For every person. Not everybody is
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: meant to be married. And when it says they do
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: not marry because they can and work better for God
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: and his kingdom, having that marriage with God right being
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: in relationship with his son Jesus Christ, and being able
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: to have the Holy Spirit be activated in you, you
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: will get so many different I want to say just blessings, right,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: But it's more than that. You're serving God by serving
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: his people, and there's a satisfaction that over time comes
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: with that. I can't sit here and say that I
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: know a whole lot about that because I'm only about
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: six or seven months following Christ and over twenty years
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: being a believer, And forgive me for the sirens in
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: the background and the other noise.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: But I want to go ahead.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: And close out on Let's try to get to fifteen.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Little children come to Jesus verse thirteen, Matthew, chapter nineteen.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Then some people brought their little children to Jesus. They
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: wanted him to put his hands on each child's head.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: They wanted him to pray for them. But the disciples
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: told the people that they could not do that. Hey,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: here comes Jesus. Verse fourteen. Jesus said to them, do
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: not stop the children. Let them come to me. People
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: must become like these children so that God can rule
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: in their lives. That is what the Kingdom of Heaven
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: is like. So Jesus put his hands on each of
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: the children's heads and prayed for them. After that he
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: went away from that place, and that is verse fifteen.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: And it kind of said that in chapter eighteen last
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: night talking about being that childlike, you know, being like children. Now,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: it's not all about you know, like it's having that
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: childlike spirit. You know, we all have that little child
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: in us, right, we all were once young. And it's
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: not like going around and being a goofball or being
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: silly all the time.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: It's not being like an immature kid. When it when.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Jesus was talking about this and he was talking about
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: you know how a child, like most children, right, are
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: so innocent, they're so pure, their minds are like sponges, right,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: they can learn so much in such a and and
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: when you get older, of course you had to put
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: more into it, right with learning and the personality traits,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: and there's a lot of trauma and there's a lot
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: of different things. That's why recovery is very important. Being
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: able to not only just be prayed for Oh can
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: you pray for me? No, you got to put the
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: work in. You got to stop doing the habits that
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: you did for so long that you thought was helping you, Right,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: cope trying to cope with something that you weren't meant
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: to cope with.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: Give it to God. Live and let live. Give it
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: to God.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: And this was such a great great Firse fifteen verses
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: of Matthew Chapter nineteen. I'm closing out. This is the
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: Ember Show. I want anybody to know that if you
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: are struggling with relationships, you're not alone. If you're struggling
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: with loving yourself, you're not alone. Don't think for one
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: second that this is going to last forever. Everything is temporary.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: Every single thing is temporary. It's not it's not meant
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: to last forever, just like life in general on this
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: earth is not meant to last forever. You're going to
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: go through seasons and periods of times where you don't
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: feel wanted, you feel isolated, you don't know what to do.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: That's when you rely on him. Have the relationship with
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Jesus and allow the Holy Spirit to be able to
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: guide you through the darkest times of your life and
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: be able to make sure that you give thanks as well.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Don't just be.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Talking to Jesus when it's when things are bad. Bring him,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: help him, come celebrate with you as well, and that's
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: just suggestions. And this is the Ember Show, your host
• 14:47
