- 1:11Speaker 4: are going to theme this podcast. We're gonna call it
- 1:14Speaker 4: verse by verse for now on because that's what we do.
- 1:17Speaker 4: We go verse by verse through the Word of God.
- 1:20Speaker 4: Because on this podcast we believe that the end graft
- 1:23Speaker 4: of the Word is able to save our souls. Amen. Amen,
- 1:29Speaker 4: And so we want to invite you on this journey.
- 1:32Speaker 4: We are going through the Book of Jeremiah. Currently we'll
- 1:36Speaker 4: be embarking on Jeremiah chapter ten. Jeremiah chapter nine. We
- 1:42Speaker 4: saw the heartbreak of the nation as they saw that
- 1:48Speaker 4: the warnings and the threats of judgment were real. And
- 1:55Speaker 4: it's a sobering thing to know that we've ignored the
- 1:58Speaker 4: warnings of God to the point where now we have
- 2:02Speaker 4: to pay the consequences. The time to get right is over,
- 2:08Speaker 4: and a lot of people who stepped into eternity have
- 2:12Speaker 4: realized that way too late. Now, since we are still
- 2:17Speaker 4: here and have breadth in our lungs, now is the
- 2:20Speaker 4: time for us to get it right, to get right
- 2:22Speaker 4: with God. And so we finished chapter nine, we are
- 2:26Speaker 4: in chapter ten. We're gonna look at idols versus the
- 2:31Speaker 4: true in living God. That is what this chapter breaks down.
- 2:37Speaker 4: God is always calling us back to a loving relationship
- 2:42Speaker 4: with Him and man. He wants our hearts, our devotion.
- 2:47Speaker 4: He deserves it the one he created us, and for
- 2:50Speaker 4: two he bought us with his own blood. This is
- 2:54Speaker 4: how much he desires to have us and to have
- 2:58Speaker 4: a relationship with us. So we're gonna respond to that.
- 3:01Speaker 4: We're gonna give them our whole hearts. Amen. So as
- 3:05Speaker 4: we embark on this chapter, we invite you to join

- 3:46Speaker 4: Call us your small group on the radio. Because we
- 3:50Speaker 4: also believe that the path to life is a narrow path.
- 3:55Speaker 4: And the Bible says Jesus said himself that it's a
- 3:58Speaker 4: difficult world to walk on. But hey, who said we
- 4:02Speaker 4: gotta be lonely? We were called to have fellowship with
- 4:06Speaker 4: the body of Christ, to encourage each other and to
- 4:09Speaker 4: help each other. The definition of evil is following the
- 4:13Speaker 4: evil dictates of our own hearts, and we need to
- 4:17Speaker 4: renew our minds. Sometimes we need somebody to correct us
- 4:20Speaker 4: and say, hey that, get that out your heart. Let's
- 4:23Speaker 4: put the word of God where that belongs, and that
- 4:27Speaker 4: is a safe space to be amen. So that's what
- 4:31Speaker 4: we offer you here on the podcast and on the
- 4:33Speaker 4: His Hot radio app. We hope that you will take
- 4:37Speaker 4: advantage of that and let us enter into life together.
- 4:45Speaker 4: Let's help each other stay on that narrow path. Let's
- 4:48Speaker 4: good before our Father and prayer. Everly, Father, we thank
- 4:50Speaker 4: you for another day, another opportunity, Father God, to serve you,
- 4:54Speaker 4: to love you, to get right with you. We ask
- 4:56Speaker 4: Lord for grace and for strength and for your encouragement, Lord,
- 5:01Speaker 4: to continue our walk as we go through the podcast today,
- 5:05Speaker 4: we ask the Lord that hearts and minds will be
- 5:07Speaker 4: ministered too, and people will be touched, O God in
- 5:10Speaker 4: Jesus' name. Amen. All right, As I said, we're gonna
- 5:19Speaker 4: go through chapter ten, and we're gonna start at verse one.
- 5:23Speaker 4: Here the word which the Lord speaks to you, O
- 5:27Speaker 4: house of Israel. By the way, we're in the New
- 5:31Speaker 4: King James, that says the Lord, do not lean or
- 5:36Speaker 4: do not learn the way of the gentiles. Do not
- 5:40Speaker 4: be dismayed at the signs of heaven, for the gentiles
- 5:45Speaker 4: are dismayed at them. So what we're talking about here
- 5:50Speaker 4: is astrology. Back then, even Abraham was a moon worshiper.
- 5:57Speaker 4: And you know that's funny. As I was going through
- 5:59Speaker 4: this chap, I was driving and I was just looking.
- 6:03Speaker 4: I was looking at the moon coming up right as
- 6:06Speaker 4: I was driving to work one morning, and then I
- 6:11Speaker 4: started driving around and at the end of the day,
- 6:14Speaker 4: I saw the sun kind of coming down, and I
- 6:18Speaker 4: was just looking like, why would you worship these things?
- 6:21Speaker 4: I mean, I mean they look huge, don't they. I
- 6:24Speaker 4: mean the moon looks huge. It does. It was a
- 6:27Speaker 4: full moon and we're here on this earth. And just
- 6:31Speaker 4: imagine not having the revelation to who God truly is.
- 6:35Speaker 4: You would be provoked to worship that thing. You'd be
- 6:40Speaker 4: provoked to call out, like you don't. I believe even
- 6:46Speaker 4: then people had a revelation of God, they just chose
- 6:49Speaker 4: to ignore it because I don't believe that people were
- 6:52Speaker 4: just helplessly lost and they couldn't find God. That was
- 6:56Speaker 4: a whole point of the nation of Israel, was to
- 6:59Speaker 4: point the world to God, to the light right. And
- 7:04Speaker 4: even though they kind of failed to be that witness,
- 7:08Speaker 4: but they were dismayed at the signs of heaven. Now
- 7:19Speaker 4: verse three, because we're gonna got a point, but we'll
- 7:21Speaker 4: fall back to that. For the customs of the people's
- 7:25Speaker 4: are futile. For one cuts a tree from the forest,
- 7:31Speaker 4: the work of the hands of the workmen with an axe.
- 7:38Speaker 4: Now they're talking about how senseless it is to build
- 7:44Speaker 4: your own God. You cut down a tree from the forest.
- 7:49Speaker 4: Right you use you hire an axe. Men, It's almost
- 7:53Speaker 4: like going to the store and have them make you
- 7:56Speaker 4: a customed god. You know, I like to go to
- 7:59Speaker 4: the mall, not a custom of his hot T shirts,
- 8:03Speaker 4: you know, to promote the radio station and things like that.
- 8:06Speaker 4: Imagine going to the mall and basically say, you know,
- 8:10Speaker 4: I need you to create a God for me today
- 8:12Speaker 4: that I can worship. Like, what can that God do
- 8:17Speaker 4: for you? Right? And it's gonna break it down. In
- 8:22Speaker 4: Verse four says you decorate it with silver and gold
- 8:26Speaker 4: and fascinate with nails and a hammer so that it
- 8:31Speaker 4: may not topple. Now you have to put nails in
- 8:35Speaker 4: your God, or else it's gonna fall over. Now, I
- 8:41Speaker 4: serve a God that can stand upright, can walk and
- 8:45Speaker 4: talk and breathe, and I can call upon his name
- 8:48Speaker 4: and he can help me. Right. We need a God
- 8:52Speaker 4: that can deliver us and help us and save us,
- 8:56Speaker 4: and need to help us go through these issues of life. Now,
- 9:00Speaker 4: if you got to hold up your God with a nail,
- 9:04Speaker 4: how in the world do you think this God is
- 9:06Speaker 4: going to help you? Right? They call out to these
- 9:10Speaker 4: items that they've made for help. In verse five, they
- 9:15Speaker 4: are upright like a palm tree, and they cannot speak.
- 9:21Speaker 4: I'm thankful that we have a God that can speak
- 9:23Speaker 4: to our spirits and our hearts. They must be carried
- 9:29Speaker 4: because they cannot go by themselves. Do not be afraid
- 9:35Speaker 4: of them, for they cannot do evil, nor can they
- 9:39Speaker 4: do any good. These people were fearing these objects that
- 9:45Speaker 4: they were, they made by man's hand, that cannot carry
- 9:50Speaker 4: themselves nor cannot even speak. Now, I do want to
- 9:55Speaker 4: say something about not being able to speak. I was
- 10:00Speaker 4: watching it video. There was a podcast on YouTube called
- 10:06Speaker 4: Life is Spiritual, Very powerful. This African couple, this girl,
- 10:13Speaker 4: Erica Mumbasi, I believe if I'm pronouncing her name right,
- 10:17Speaker 4: was a devil worshiper and it was it ran in
- 10:22Speaker 4: her family, but Jesus delivered her from that. If you
- 10:25Speaker 4: can ever look up her testimony, it is great and
- 10:28Speaker 4: it is powerful. They're doing a great work in Africa,
- 10:33Speaker 4: and my wife and I we enjoy watching their videos. Now,
- 10:38Speaker 4: if you can get past her accent, they got a
- 10:40Speaker 4: pretty The wife has a pretty thick accent, you know,
- 10:42Speaker 4: because she's from Africa. Sometimes I gotta really listen to
- 10:47Speaker 4: understand everything that they're saying. But anyway, it's a great podcast. Anyway,
- 10:51Speaker 4: the one of the latest videos that they put out,
- 10:54Speaker 4: they're talking about Elon Musk and this chip coming out
- 11:00Speaker 4: with and they showed some clips. There's a guy who
- 11:04Speaker 4: made a incision in his uh has an incision like
- 11:09Speaker 4: on the side of his forehead because of a surgery
- 11:12Speaker 4: he had implanting the chip in his brain. Now, this
- 11:17Speaker 4: chip or they implanted it. Actually you know, our brain
- 11:20Speaker 4: is electronic, and so they planted it to where people
- 11:26Speaker 4: can even watch your thoughts. Come on. Now, it is
- 11:30Speaker 4: getting ready for the Beast system, the Antichrist system, where
- 11:35Speaker 4: they are going to basically control the whole world. And
- 11:39Speaker 4: planting this chip and your brain gives them access for
- 11:44Speaker 4: mind control. They know you're if you think of something
- 11:49Speaker 4: that is against their system, they'll just shut down your
- 11:51Speaker 4: bank account. This guy is bragging. He's talking about he
- 11:55Speaker 4: can control his mouse, he can control his computer just
- 11:58Speaker 4: with his brain and with this thought. And now they're
- 12:01Speaker 4: also saying that this was a part of the brain
- 12:04Speaker 4: where you hear from God, where God will speak. See,
- 12:09Speaker 4: Satan cannot read our minds. Satan is not all powerful
- 12:14Speaker 4: like God is. Satan relies on technology. If you bind
- 12:19Speaker 4: this strong man and spoil his house. If you bind
- 12:22Speaker 4: these demons and devils that Satan uses, he is rendered helpless.
- 12:27Speaker 4: He needs an army right to accomplish his deeds and
- 12:32Speaker 4: his tactics. He can't be everywhere once like God can,
- 12:37Speaker 4: and so he's using technology. And in the Book of
- 12:41Speaker 4: Revelation it says that the mark of the beast will
- 12:44Speaker 4: be either on your right hand or on the forehead.
- 12:47Speaker 4: And so this chip is out and this Satan is
- 12:50Speaker 4: trying to change our DNA because only humans can be saved.
- 12:55Speaker 4: That's why if you take the mark, your chances for
- 12:58Speaker 4: salvation are gone. Taking on the DNA of Satan, you've
- 13:02Speaker 4: taken on his image. Because God created us in his image,
- 13:07Speaker 4: and only those who are created in his image can
- 13:10Speaker 4: be saved. Those who are created in Satan's image. That's
- 13:14Speaker 4: why Satan cannot be saved. And so it's deep. Do
- 13:18Speaker 4: not take this mark. But the point I'm trying to
- 13:21Speaker 4: make is there's a part in your brain where God
- 13:25Speaker 4: speaks to us, and Elon Musk is developing a chip
- 13:31Speaker 4: where it cuts that off, where God will no longer
- 13:35Speaker 4: be able to speak, and there's a chip that will
- 13:37Speaker 4: hinder that and Satan will be able to control and
- 13:41Speaker 4: know your thoughts, and who knows, they could probably take
- 13:47Speaker 4: your life if they just they could probably hit the
- 13:48Speaker 4: delete button, like why would you give that much control
- 13:53Speaker 4: to anything other than Jesus, say man, and these things
- 13:59Speaker 4: can neither do evil, are good like they're inadamant objects.
- 14:04Speaker 4: Why worship them? Verse six? Inasmuch as they there is
- 14:09Speaker 4: none like you, O Lord, you are great, and your
- 14:13Speaker 4: name is great and mighty. Who will not fear you,
- 14:18Speaker 4: O King of Nations? For this is your rife will
- 14:26Speaker 4: do Verse seven? For among all the wise men of
- 14:30Speaker 4: the nations, and in all the kingdoms, there is none
- 14:35Speaker 4: like you. Now he's telling us not to fear these idols.
- 14:43Speaker 4: Right then he goes in, and he tells us who
- 14:47Speaker 4: is like you? O Lord? You are great, and your
- 14:53Speaker 4: name is great and mighty. Who will not fear you,
- 14:56Speaker 4: O King of Nations? So right now now the nations
- 15:01Speaker 4: are defiant, The nations are brazen against him. The nations
- 15:10Speaker 4: mock his name. They do not know what they do
- 15:15Speaker 4: on that day of judgment. It says that when Jesus
- 15:20Speaker 4: cracks the sky, the nations will mourn because of him.
- 15:25Speaker 4: He is the King of nations. The nations will regret
- 15:31Speaker 4: every time that they've disrespected him, disregarded him. Who will
- 15:39Speaker 4: not fear this great and mighty king. They will see
- 15:42Speaker 4: how foolish it was, and how foolish it is to
- 15:47Speaker 4: worship these idols that they've made with their hands Verse seven.
- 15:54Speaker 4: For who will not fear you, o, King of nations?
- 15:57Speaker 4: For this is your rightful duke. From among all the
- 16:01Speaker 4: wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms,
- 16:05Speaker 4: there is none like you a man. Verse eight. But
- 16:08Speaker 4: they are all together dull hearted and foolish. A wooden
- 16:14Speaker 4: idol is a worthless doctrine. Now they are dull hearted
- 16:25Speaker 4: and foolish. Do you notice the people in this world
- 16:31Speaker 4: who worship other gods, these other religions. I notice one
- 16:37Speaker 4: thing is like they're not really sharp in their thinking.
- 16:40Speaker 4: They're not really sharp in their discernment because they fall
- 16:44Speaker 4: for just about anything. Right. You can offer them something
- 16:50Speaker 4: very gullible, like once you've been walking in the light,
- 16:53Speaker 4: it makes sense to us like, oh, yeah, you know,
- 16:55Speaker 4: this ain't ala. You know I would go that way,
- 16:58Speaker 4: you know, because we were walking in the light we
- 17:03Speaker 4: can see. But people in darkness, they don't know what
- 17:06Speaker 4: they worship. So they worship dangerous things and they don't
- 17:10Speaker 4: even realize it. Because there's a principle. You become who
- 17:15Speaker 4: you worship. You become like the object you worship. The
- 17:20Speaker 4: wood is dull, the wood cannot do nothing and cannot speak,
- 17:25Speaker 4: is worthless. They can do nothing to help you, and
- 17:30Speaker 4: they leave you in a worthless state. Verse nine. Silver
- 17:35Speaker 4: is beaten into plates, and it is brought from Tarsius,
- 17:41Speaker 4: and gold from you, Paz, the work of a craftsman,
- 17:47Speaker 4: and of the hands of a metalsmith. Blue and purple
- 17:53Speaker 4: are there clothing. They are all the work of skillful men.
- 18:02Speaker 4: God is like saying, look, get some common sense, get
- 18:07Speaker 4: some common sense, look at what you're worshiping. Now. Back then,
- 18:17Speaker 4: I will have to say people were a little more
- 18:21Speaker 4: honest than they are. Now. Let's say, whatever your master
- 18:30Speaker 4: passion is, whatever you wake up for in the morning,
- 18:35Speaker 4: and whatever you desire you devote your time and telling
- 18:38Speaker 4: and treasure to, that is your God. That is who
- 18:42Speaker 4: you worship. And so back then, if you worship sex,
- 18:49Speaker 4: for instance, if your desire you just wanted to have
- 18:53Speaker 4: a sexual life and sexual exploits and this, like you know,
- 18:58Speaker 4: things like that, that what you would do is you
- 19:00Speaker 4: would go and create an idol and call it Astrath.
- 19:07Speaker 4: Astra had was a god of sexual pleasure in that day,
- 19:13Speaker 4: and Astra was an idol that had exaggerated sexual parts
- 19:20Speaker 4: on it. You know, if you will look it up,
- 19:23Speaker 4: you know that was their idol. And so they would
- 19:26Speaker 4: build an altar in pray to this astith god so
- 19:30Speaker 4: that they can go out and this god will help
- 19:33Speaker 4: them live a life of sexual immorality. But nowadays, if
- 19:39Speaker 4: you go to somebody and you know, they have a
- 19:42Speaker 4: wild weekend and they come to work or whatever, and
- 19:46Speaker 4: they're bragging about, you know, all these girls or guys
- 19:50Speaker 4: whatever that they you know, slept with, and you'd be like, oh, okay,
- 19:53Speaker 4: oh well you worship Astrath and they'd be like, huh,
- 19:57Speaker 4: like what are you talking about it? What's an Astra?
- 20:00Speaker 4: You know, they don't know, they don't realize that they're
- 20:03Speaker 4: worshiping this god. That's the demon that they're worshiping. They've
- 20:06Speaker 4: given her life over to. And so this is the
- 20:14Speaker 4: reality of idols and idle worship. If God is not
- 20:19Speaker 4: if Jesus is not your master passion, then chances are
- 20:27Speaker 4: you are worshiping an idol, whether it be being a workaholic,
- 20:33Speaker 4: or whether it be alcohol or drugs or whatever. It
- 20:37Speaker 4: is that the driving passion, the driving force of your
- 20:41Speaker 4: life is your idol. And people are sophisticated today, so
- 20:45Speaker 4: they're not gonna go and create a statue and call
- 20:49Speaker 4: upon the thing. They're just living that lifestyle. You know.
- 20:52Speaker 4: They worship different celebrities, right, and they want to look
- 20:56Speaker 4: like their celebrities. Look at how many Michaels Jackson look
- 21:01Speaker 4: alikes her out there right verse ten. But the Lord
- 21:07Speaker 4: is the true God, He is the living God and
- 21:13Speaker 4: the everlasting King. At his wrath, the earth will tremble
- 21:19Speaker 4: and the nations will not be able to endure his indignation. Now,
- 21:24Speaker 4: whenever you come at a cross, that word indignation in
- 21:27Speaker 4: the Old Testament, it is the word that we used
- 21:30Speaker 4: in a New Testament for the great tri relation. So
- 21:34Speaker 4: the time of great triblation is coming upon us, and
- 21:39Speaker 4: the Bible tells us that this will be the worst
- 21:43Speaker 4: time ever in history, the worst time ever in history,
- 21:51Speaker 4: and it's knocking right at our door. The nations will
- 21:55Speaker 4: not be able to endure his indignation. He is a
- 21:59Speaker 4: true in a living God. He deserves our devotion. He
- 22:06Speaker 4: deserves our worship. He deserves all of that. And so
- 22:10Speaker 4: I wanted to fall back when I was talking about
- 22:14Speaker 4: they are dismayed by the heavens. Where was that verse at? Yeah,
- 22:22Speaker 4: verse I believe too, it was do not learn the
- 22:26Speaker 4: ways that the gentiles do not be dismayed, that the
- 22:29Speaker 4: science of the heavens for the gentiles are di made
- 22:33Speaker 4: at them. You can say that this is basically astrology, right, well,
- 22:39Speaker 4: there's a lot of superstition behind it. There's a lot
- 22:44Speaker 4: of astrology. And the point I'm trying to make when
- 22:51Speaker 4: these first ten verses is this is that you become
- 22:57Speaker 4: what you worship. And it's starts as a progression. First,
- 23:04Speaker 4: it starts with love, right you want That's why Jesus
- 23:10Speaker 4: always wants our heart, always wants our love. He's fighting
- 23:16Speaker 4: for it. He's fighting for our hearts just as well
- 23:19Speaker 4: as Satan wants us to love our sin. Ultimately, Satan
- 23:23Speaker 4: wants us to love self right, and he promises fulfillment,
- 23:31Speaker 4: He promises empty. Sin will promise things but then will
- 23:35Speaker 4: not deliver. God is the only one who would fulfill
- 23:40Speaker 4: and make us whole. And so whatever you love, whoever
- 23:44Speaker 4: you love, you begin to serve. Right, Remember when you
- 23:48Speaker 4: started dating your spouse, Remember the beginning of that relationship,
- 23:54Speaker 4: when you just wanted to serve and please that person
- 23:58Speaker 4: because you love them. You wanted to make sure they're good.
- 24:01Speaker 4: You wanted to make sure they hate, or you wanted
- 24:04Speaker 4: to make sure that they had, you know, something they desired.
- 24:08Speaker 4: You know, you wanted to surprise them and bless them. Right,
- 24:14Speaker 4: and that should be supposed to be our motivation behind
- 24:19Speaker 4: serving God. Sometimes we fall into ruts and we go
- 24:24Speaker 4: to church just out of habit or out of tradition,
- 24:28Speaker 4: out of some obligation. A lot of people go to
- 24:32Speaker 4: church and go through the motions, or they go through
- 24:35Speaker 4: the motions with God, but they forgot that they are
- 24:44Speaker 4: supposed to be serving him out of love. Right, We
- 24:47Speaker 4: love him because He first love us. And then it
- 24:51Speaker 4: progressed once you begin to serve whom you love, and
- 24:56Speaker 4: then the ultimate expression of that is worship. You begin
- 25:01Speaker 4: to worship the master passion. You know what you worship.
- 25:06Speaker 4: Look at your bank account, what do you spend the
- 25:10Speaker 4: most money on besides the bills or anything like that?
- 25:14Speaker 4: You know what I mean? Do you give to your
- 25:18Speaker 4: local church? Do you give to different ministries that well,
- 25:25Speaker 4: you know, basically God placed your heart because you love
- 25:28Speaker 4: the Lord and you want to see the Lord's work.
- 25:30Speaker 4: It's not about the people, right, it's not necessarily about
- 25:34Speaker 4: the person, the pastor or the minister. It's about your
- 25:38Speaker 4: love for Jesus and if they are faithfully called to
- 25:42Speaker 4: do a work in the earth. You want to see
- 25:44Speaker 4: God's kingdom advanced. So how much? What percentage of your finances?
- 25:51Speaker 4: Because that is your treasure. Your heart is attached to
- 25:53Speaker 4: your treasure. It's a biblical principle. Jesus says, store your
- 25:59Speaker 4: treasures in hell, for where your treasures are, that is
- 26:03Speaker 4: where your heart is. Are you storing up treasures in heaven?
- 26:08Speaker 4: Are you giving to the Kingdom of God? Paying your ties?
- 26:14Speaker 4: I believe that's biblical, and there's offerings besides. I believe
- 26:18Speaker 4: that's biblical. I believe we say every time on this
- 26:23Speaker 4: podcast that we want to relaunch reopen Club His Hop,
- 26:26Speaker 4: Las Vegas Club, His Hop advances the Kingdom of God,
- 26:32Speaker 4: and we always say we need your financial support. Are
- 26:35Speaker 4: you investing in God's kingdom because you love and you
- 26:41Speaker 4: want to serve and this is who you worship Jesus. Now,
- 26:47Speaker 4: don't get me wrong. This is not a call for
- 26:50Speaker 4: a donation. I'm not going to pull an offering or
- 26:54Speaker 4: this is not a financial giving podcast to our organization.
- 26:59Speaker 4: But this is a principle and I'm trying to open
- 27:02Speaker 4: up your heart and up your mind. Are you an
- 27:06Speaker 4: idol worshiper? Have you truly fallen in love with Jesus?
- 27:12Speaker 4: Because that is what it's gonna take for you to
- 27:16Speaker 4: enter the kingdom. Jesus says that he has to know you.
- 27:22Speaker 4: It's not that we've heard of him or we know
- 27:24Speaker 4: about him, but does he know us by presenting ourselves
- 27:32Speaker 4: before him and by giving him our time, our devotion,
- 27:39Speaker 4: our talent, and our treasure. And if we're not giving
- 27:44Speaker 4: it to him, the question is who are you giving
- 27:47Speaker 4: it to? Please identify that, because whoever you're given it
- 27:53Speaker 4: to is your God. There's only one person who does.
- 28:00Speaker 4: There is that number one spot in our hearts, and
- 28:03Speaker 4: that person is the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth. All right,

- 32:10Speaker 4: give us a shout out. We'll shout you out right back.
- 32:14Speaker 4: Shout out to everyone listening in different countries as podcasts
- 32:19Speaker 4: gets played in Japan and everywhere else in the UK, Europe,
- 32:26Speaker 4: all kind of places that I didn't realize it was playing,
- 32:30Speaker 4: But when I look at the stats, there's hundreds of
- 32:34Speaker 4: people who download and tune in. We're just trying to
- 32:38Speaker 4: get everyone to log into the life Chat so we
- 32:40Speaker 4: can get this online community popping. You know what I'm saying.
- 32:44Speaker 4: We had someone I believe from the Philippines log in
- 32:48Speaker 4: and they were promoting I believe their nephew was a
- 32:52Speaker 4: basketball player or something like that, so we appreciate y'all.
- 32:56Speaker 4: They requested prayer as well, so we will definitely look
- 33:02Speaker 4: back and pray for him. We were trying to understand
- 33:05Speaker 4: the message, so if you're listening, please post again and
- 33:09Speaker 4: let us know specifically what you would like us to
- 33:14Speaker 4: pray concerning your nephew. Amen. All right, now it's time
- 33:19Speaker 4: for the accountability Partner. On this segment, we ask a question,
- 33:23Speaker 4: we give you a challenge. We believe that iron sharpens iron,
- 33:29Speaker 4: and Jesus commanded us to go and make disciples of
- 33:31Speaker 4: all nations. And so this is the discipleship element to
- 33:36Speaker 4: this podcast because a lot of churches have dropped the ball,
- 33:41Speaker 4: not all, but just a lot of them that are
- 33:44Speaker 4: not really discipling people like the Lord commanded us to.
- 33:49Speaker 4: And so this segment was to encourage people to call
- 33:53Speaker 4: your accountability partner someone who is your spiritual coach or
- 33:58Speaker 4: mentor or spiritual leaders. Should be a pastor, a Bible
- 34:01Speaker 4: study leader, hopefully somebody from your local church, but if not,
- 34:07Speaker 4: we would love to help you here in the podcast.
- 34:10Speaker 4: If you go to my podcast and click on the
- 34:12Speaker 4: Accountability Partner link. You can go through the questions and
- 34:16Speaker 4: you can request to follow up. But we would love
- 34:19Speaker 4: to pray with you and pray for you and help
- 34:21Speaker 4: you get over whatever it is. We all got something
- 34:25Speaker 4: to get over. Amen. No one's perfect on this earth,
- 34:28Speaker 4: but God is giving us the tools and the weapons
- 34:31Speaker 4: to progress. So that's what we would love to do
- 34:35Speaker 4: for you. But the challenge today is examine. Call your
- 34:41Speaker 4: accountability partner and examine who is the master passion or
- 34:49Speaker 4: what is the master passion of your life? Or who
- 34:57Speaker 4: do you devote most of your time to? Who do
- 35:01Speaker 4: you devote most of your treasure to? Who do you
- 35:06Speaker 4: devote most of your talent to? That would be a
- 35:11Speaker 4: good indication of if it's an idol or if you're
- 35:17Speaker 4: truly serving Jesus, Amen, hallelujah. Also, we want to let
- 35:25Speaker 4: you know that his Hot Radio is a monitored in
- 35:27Speaker 4: a reporting radio station. We report to the charts. If
- 35:33Speaker 4: you have a project, or if you have a single,

- 36:35Speaker 4: is the trivia champ. We love to give you Bible
- 36:38Speaker 4: questions and different things, but today it's gonna be a
- 36:42Speaker 4: little bit different. We're not going to ask you about
- 36:46Speaker 4: the profits or anything like that. We want to know
- 36:51Speaker 4: how well have you been listening to today's podcast. So
- 36:55Speaker 4: the trivia question is what is the name of the

- 38:36Speaker 4: was invited as well, but you know I couldn't afford
- 38:41Speaker 4: three tickets because our oldest daughter was invited as well
- 38:46Speaker 4: to go. So keep them up in prayer as a
- 38:51Speaker 4: travel they will be back. And also August twenty ninth
- 38:57Speaker 4: will be at the Resort World and it is open
- 39:01Speaker 4: to the public. It's like a business mixer type of

- 39:30Speaker 4: want to let you know that his Hot Radio is
- 39:33Speaker 4: a five O one C three a public charity. As
- 39:38Speaker 4: I mentioned before, we want to relaunch and we open
- 39:41Speaker 4: Club his Hot Las Vegas. You can look up Club
- 39:45Speaker 4: his Hop on the internet, find us on YouTube. You
- 39:49Speaker 4: can see some clips of what we have done over
- 39:53Speaker 4: the years. You can check us out on our website
- 39:56Speaker 4: his Hot nation dot com. We are a Christian club,
- 40:00Speaker 4: first Christian club in Las Vegas. We held it down
- 40:04Speaker 4: for I mean years, doing shows every month. Reaching the
- 40:07Speaker 4: community are at risk youth and young adults. We just
- 40:10Speaker 4: want to give them an alternative to what's out there now,
- 40:15Speaker 4: and so that's what we got to do. If they
- 40:17Speaker 4: don't have an alternative, they will gravitate to the dark side.
- 40:21Speaker 4: There's plenty of clubs in Las Vegas. Trust me, I
- 40:26Speaker 4: doubt if any one of them are lifting up the
- 40:29Speaker 4: name of Jesus, and they are packed with our youth
- 40:33Speaker 4: and our young adults. They have older adults in there too,
- 40:38Speaker 4: you know what I mean, And so we just want
- 40:41Speaker 4: to provide an alternative, get them exposed to a godly
- 40:45Speaker 4: atmosphere to where they won't even want to go to
- 40:48Speaker 4: one of those worldly clubs. So, if God has led
- 40:53Speaker 4: you five dollars, two dollars, three dollars one hundred dollars
- 40:58Speaker 4: a month, anything that you could do will help us
- 41:03Speaker 4: secure a new building. Like I said, we are a
- 41:07Speaker 4: five oh one C three a nonprofit. That's what the
- 41:10Speaker 4: club operates under. So we're looking for grants. We're looking
- 41:15Speaker 4: for monthly supporters, sponsors, donors, and volunteers. And if you
- 41:20Speaker 4: would like to get more involved, check us out on
- 41:22Speaker 4: our website or even on our app His Hot Radio
- 41:27Speaker 4: on all platforms. That website is his Hotnation dot com.
- 41:33Speaker 4: With that beloved, that is my time. Thank you for
- 41:35Speaker 4: spending time with us here on the podcast His Hot Radio.
- 41:39Speaker 4: We're gonna pick up in chapter eleven, I mean a
- 41:43Speaker 4: chapter ten, verse eleven on our next episode. We'd appreciate you,
- 41:49Speaker 4: but I do have some final comments. In a prayer out,
- 41:53Speaker 4: Chapter ten teaches us that idols that we create with
- 41:58Speaker 4: our own hands is nonsense you have to go to
- 42:00Speaker 4: the store and buy your God and then nail it
- 42:04Speaker 4: on the ground so it don't fall over. If your
- 42:07Speaker 4: God has a mouth but can't speak ears that don't hear.
- 42:12Speaker 4: If your God can't walk around on his own, don't
- 42:16Speaker 4: fear it. Why even waste your time. In the Book
- 42:19Speaker 4: of Romans, it tells us that they serve the creature
- 42:23Speaker 4: more than the creator. We don't want to be guilty
- 42:27Speaker 4: of that. Remember the judgment in their earlier chapters. If
- 42:31Speaker 4: you missed it, it's in earlier episodes of the Book
- 42:35Speaker 4: of Jeremiah where the leaders, the kings, the priests, the prophets,
- 42:41Speaker 4: and the people their bones were spread out in front
- 42:45Speaker 4: of all the heavens for which they worshiped as a judgment.
- 42:49Speaker 4: God does not play. It's not worth having idols and
- 42:56Speaker 4: worshiping false gods. So Father, we pray today, Lord, and
- 43:01Speaker 4: we ask for forgiveness. Forgive us if we have any
- 43:06Speaker 4: idols in our hearts. Forgive us if we have passion
- 43:10Speaker 4: and love for things more than you, things that are
- 43:15Speaker 4: trying to rival your position, things that have taken your place. Lord,
- 43:18Speaker 4: forgive us for allowing worries and cares and pressures of
- 43:22Speaker 4: this life to choke out the word. Oh Lord, we
- 43:26Speaker 4: put you in your rightful place. So God, help us
- 43:28Speaker 4: Lord to hide your word in our hearts so that
- 43:30Speaker 4: we will not go astray. Oh God, protect us Lord
- 43:35Speaker 4: from being idle worshipers. Oh God, we ask you to
- 43:38Speaker 4: destroy every idol in our hearts, Lord, knowingly or unknowingly,
- 43:43Speaker 4: O God, that has been placed there. Oh God, wash
- 43:47Speaker 4: us with the blood of Jesus. And we ask this
- 43:49Speaker 4: in Jesus' name. Amen, and remember us not about us.
- 43:54Speaker 4: It's all about the Christ and us God. Bless y'all.
- 44:10Speaker 5: You are listening to the light of Las Vegas. This
- 44:14Speaker 5: is the His Hop radio show.
