• 5:26
  Speaker 3: once again, I am your host, Minister Alma Thomas, And
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: tonight is inspirationing on moments with Providence Tea and on tonight,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: before I got on, I was thinking about commitment and
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: restoring our passion for certain things. We have lost our
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: passion for Christ. We have lost our passions for the
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: things that we have committed to. Commitment means making sacrifices.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: Commitment means going when you don't want to go doing
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: when you don't want to do. Sometimes we're in things
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: and organizations and we don't totally commit to the mission,
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: to the vision. But in order for anything to work,
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: you have to have a commitment to that thing, a passion,
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: and that thing you have to have a passion for change.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: A lot of times we talk about things are not
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: like they used to be. I wish it was like
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: back in the day. Families don't treat each other like
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: they used to. Friends don't treat each other like they
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: used to. People don't go to church like they used to.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: People are not loyal like they used to be loyal.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: But are you just talking about the problem? Are you
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: becoming an answer to the problem. I am from this
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: school of thought that if I can help the problem
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: and all I can do is talk about it, that
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: I don't need to be in that organization, I don't
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: need to be in that friendship. You have to give
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: one hundred percent. And like I said earlier, commitment is
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: not just going when you feel like it. Commitment is
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: not just praying when you feel like it. Commitment is
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: not like going to church when you feel like it,
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: But it's doing things when you don't feel like doing
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: them because you have a commitment to it. I remember
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: on last week I signed up or Bible College, and
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: Bibly College meets on Monday and Tuesday, so I wasn't
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: sure of the times that it meant, but I know
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: that on Tuesday nights at eight o'clock, I have a
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: commitment to teach Bible Study at my church. So and
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: thinking about whether I was going to register for this
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: class or not, I thought about the commitment I had
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: to already teaching Bible Study. Yes, I want to increase
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: my knowledge, but not on the basis of not committing
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: to the things that I have already committed to. So
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: when I looked up after, I told the professor that
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: I said, listen, on Monday nights, I teach Bible Study
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: at eight o'clock. So if this class is gonna interfere
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: with it, then I'm not gonna take it until next semester,
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: when I can give my pastor time enough to get
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: another teacher. You know, not just quit. But I made
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: a commitment, and that commitment comes first. And anyway, God
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: worked it out so that Tuesday night classes are from
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: seven to eight and I can teach Bible study edit o'clock.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: So we're talking about commitment. I realized that I commit
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: it to something. It's just like the podcast. We can't
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: take it as a hobby, but something that we committed
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: to even when we might not feel well, even when
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: we had a guest and a guest didn't show up.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: We we are still committed to these things. So we
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: have to have commitment. That's what I think is missing
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: in these last and evil days, that people are not
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: committed like we used to be committed. Now we do
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: things based on feeling. If I feel like doing it,
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: thinking that we're doing somebody in favor, well I showed up.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: But if you show up at zero percent, not giving
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: your or not coming at one hundred percent, not working
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: in excellence. Because everything you do for God to be
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: done in the spirit of excellency, not just thrown together,
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: not just giving God anything, but giving God your best.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: It's just like when you take your tithes off, you
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: give him the first ten percent and then you do
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: what you gotta do with the rest, but you give
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: God your best. When you give God your first fruits,
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: you give God the best. And in order for this
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: thing to work, we have to be a first part
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: taker and being committed. It's just like when you're married.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: After you're married for a while, you want to renew
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: your vowels. Some of us need to renew our vowels
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: to some of the things that we committed to. We
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: need to go back and redo our first works all
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: over again. You know, I used to say, I used
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: to fast every Tuesday. I used to pray every night.
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: I used to read my Bible every night. For what's
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: Samarzi now, Zion, Why don't you pray like you used to?
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: Why don't you fast like you used to, the cares
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: of this world are nipping away at our commitments, the
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: things that we committed to in our lives. It's time
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: for us to do better. So that's what I was
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: thinking about on today, just commitment and what commitment means.
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: And then for my inspirational thought today, if you want
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: something different, you have to do something different. If you
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: want something that you never had before, then you have
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: to do something that you never did before. It's just
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: like they say a fool does the same thing the
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: same way and expects different results. It's like if you're
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: biking a cake and you forget to put the bacont
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: soda in it's not gonna rise. And if you continue
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: to bake the cake that way, your cakes will never rise.
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: But if you find out what's missing from your cake
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: and what's making it not rise, then you'll be able
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: to make a perfect cake. It's just like if we
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: look at our lives and see what we're missing, what's
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: keeping us from living the dream life that God has
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: given us. God has given us all the tools that
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: we need to never excuse me, to never be broke
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: another day in our life, but we don't properly use
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: those tools. I know that I'm guilty of that. That
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: God has blessed me with so many gifts and talents,
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: but I don't use those gifts and talents to my advantage.
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: I don't use those gifts and talents never to be
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: broke another day in my life. And sometimes you get
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: tired of saying I want to do that, but I
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: can't afford it. And God has given you your gifts
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: and your talents that you should be able to attend
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: every confidence you want to attend, and attend every seminar
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: that you want attend by using the gifts and talents
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: that God has already given us, but sometimes because of fear,
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: are not knowing, and a lot of people are not
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: teachable and coachable. We don't want to admit we just
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: don't know how. But I'm not afraid to say I
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: just don't know how to use my gifts and talents
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: in a different way that they will not only benefit
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: other people, but they will benefit me as well. So
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: in my life, I have to find a different way
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: to use my talents and skills in order to monetize
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: the gifts and ability that God has already given me.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: He said, Now, for years, you're sixty years old, and
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: for years you've given friendly of your gifts and talents.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: But now it's time for you to use your gifts
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: and your talents wisely. I gave you those gifts, and
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: I gave you those talents not only just to enhance
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: the Kingdom of God, but to enhance your life. Also.
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: Stop living beneath your means. And I'm talking about itself first,
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: because we always have to be the first partaker of
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: excuse me, whatever God is in empower in us and
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: privoting in us to share with others. We have to
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: make sure that our life is lined up, that our
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: life is in according to the words that we're doing.
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: A lot of people talk to talk, but they don't
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: walk the walk. I want to be able to not
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: only just talk to talk, but also to walk the walk.
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: Good email, LaToya, how are you? I always also want
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: to be able to walk the walk. I don't want
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: my life to be in the basement for my test cimony,
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: to be on the roof whatever, whatever, whatever I'm involved in,
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: I want to be he committed one hundred percent. I
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: don't want to be halfway in and halfway out. I
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: want to use the things that God has already given me,
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: to use what's in my hand. That's what God told Moses,
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: he said, God, he said, Moses, use what you already
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: have in your hand, and he used Moses' staff to
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: do miracles. Depart the Red Sea. Moses didn't go out
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: looking for anything else, but he used what he had
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: in his hand. He told the widow woman that the
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: debtors that were coming to get her sons, and she
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: didn't have anything left. And the prophet said, well, what
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: do you have in your house? Use what you have
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: in your house. And she said, well, I have a
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: few empty vessels. And he said, well, use those and
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: borrow some more. Not just a little bit of am,
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: but borrow enough. We'll go around and ask all your
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: neighbors if you can have their empty vessels. And the
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: prophet poured the oil enough or lasted throughout all the vessels,
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: and she was able to use the vessels that she
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: had in order to sell the oil and to protect
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: her family. Sometimes you got to use what is in
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: your hands and order to provide for you and to
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: provide for your family. God is good, and God is
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: all some, and it all works together for the good
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: of them that love the Lord. When you are going through,
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: just remember that God gives us the gifts and the
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: talents that had wealth. God wants us above all to
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: be prosperous and good health. God wants you to have
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: the best of the best. Whatever you are committed to,
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: stay committed to it. Say faithful, don't give just ten percent,
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: but give one hundred percent of everything that you're in.
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: Continue to use the gifts and talents that God has
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: given you to see the manifestation of God's promises in
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: your life. A God is not a man that he
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: should lie, nor the son of man that he shall repent.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: But every word that proceeds out of the mouth. For
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: God is gonna go to where it was. Sin is
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: not gonna come back void. The word of God says
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: that any weapon formed against you shall not prosper. It
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: does not say that the weapon won't be formed. It
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: won't say that the enemy won't try to use weapons
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: in your life. But it says that it will not proper.
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: We have to stand on the word of God. We
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: have to know the word of God. We have to
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: tell God his word. God, you said, many other afflictions
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: of the righteous, but you deliver them more other and more. God,
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: you said, Job said, even though you slay me, yet
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: will I trust you? Ah, the three Hebrew Boys said, now,
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: even if he don't do it, I know that he's able.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: So on tonight. What I'm really saying is, hold on
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: to the word of God. Change is gonna come. Don't
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: give in, don't give out, and don't keep give in.
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: Just keep holding on to the word of God. A
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: change Jesus is gonna come. Stay committed to God, make sacrifices,
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: stay committed to whatever it is that you're in, and
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: a change is gonna come. Glory be to God. God
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: is awesome. God is good on tonight. I gotta say
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: thank you, Hallelujah, thank you Jesus, Halleluiah. I got her
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: a one more testimony on tonight. You know her that
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: I had a stroke and I'm in my bed, Holler, Louijah,
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: and the devil told me how to give in, to
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: throw in the towel.
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: Huh.
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: And don't make no sense to be doing no podcasts.
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: It don't make no sense to be speaking at no conference.
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: You can't get up, holler and Louijah. And it was
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: prophesied to me that I wasn't just local. Glory be
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: to God. Over twenty years ago. It was prophesie that
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: I wasn't just local, but God was gonna use me globally.
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: He Glory be to God. And I put it in
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: the back of my mind and life happened. And then
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: about a year ago before my apostle passed away, he's
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: called me ambassador to the Nations. I said, God, what
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: are you gonna do? I know that you promise I'm
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: gonna walk again? So am I gonna walk again? And
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: then go to Africa, China and Japan spreading your word
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: on today. As I looked at her at my appointments
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: at my task, and I got down to complete it.
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: I read, I've completed over two hundred and fifty conferences,
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: seminars and podcasts, and I'm not even counting this one
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: that I do bi weekly. Tell me, won't God use
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: you in the place hallelujah where you gave up, In
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: the place where the enemy told you that you was
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: no good, that nobody was gonna
