15
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:04.120
<v Speaker 2>hippiie hop music on in the background. This is not

16
00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:06.840
<v Speaker 2>very biblical. We should be learning from the Bible, and

17
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:09.519
<v Speaker 2>we will be. We'll be taking good old scriptures out

18
00:01:09.519 --> 00:01:12.319
<v Speaker 2>of the b I. B l e. The basic constructions

19
00:01:12.359 --> 00:01:15.400
<v Speaker 2>before leaving Earth Manual, presenting them to you in a

20
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:20.519
<v Speaker 2>very transparent and open way in hopes of bringing transformation

21
00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:23.640
<v Speaker 2>in your life through the power of testimony as well,

22
00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:25.879
<v Speaker 2>and we've been studying all month long here on the

23
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:28.959
<v Speaker 2>show a book called the thirty Day Spiritual boot Camp,

24
00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:31.400
<v Speaker 2>brought to you by some of the greatest evangelists in

25
00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:35.239
<v Speaker 2>the world, the Graham Family, William Graham, Franklin Graham, and

26
00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:38.439
<v Speaker 2>of course the legendary Billy Graham. But before we get

27
00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:42.200
<v Speaker 2>started into our day sixth program here on the show,

28
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:44.920
<v Speaker 2>I know some of y'all are like, who whoa, whoa, whohoa, whoaha.

29
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:46.959
<v Speaker 2>I kind of like the way this guy sounds. I

30
00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:50.120
<v Speaker 2>like where he's headed. But I'm a non believer. I'm

31
00:01:50.120 --> 00:01:53.159
<v Speaker 2>an atheist. Katie. Yeah, I should be shutting this off,

32
00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:55.480
<v Speaker 2>but something's telling me to keep it on. It's okay.

33
00:01:56.159 --> 00:01:59.200
<v Speaker 2>That's not your conscience calling. That's the Lord calling you.

34
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:01.040
<v Speaker 2>I know, said the word Lord.

35
00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:03.480
<v Speaker 3>We talked about the Bible and now a Bible boot camp,

36
00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:06.280
<v Speaker 3>and you may be shaking in those Biblical boots right now,

37
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:09.199
<v Speaker 3>but that's okay, because we're all going to bow before

38
00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:10.840
<v Speaker 3>him and shake when he comes here, so we might

39
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:13.240
<v Speaker 3>as well get spiritually ready right right now.

40
00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:16.199
<v Speaker 2>But we have a phrase around here for you believers,

41
00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:20.840
<v Speaker 2>non believers, maybe white haired wisdom of faith, believers that

42
00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:23.680
<v Speaker 2>have white hair on your hairy chin chin chin, and

43
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:25.439
<v Speaker 2>other parts of your body as well. We're not going

44
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:27.680
<v Speaker 2>to go there on this episode, by the way, nor ever,

45
00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:31.080
<v Speaker 2>but we have a phrase for everybody, and that phrases

46
00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:34.400
<v Speaker 2>we dare you, We dare you to stick around, We

47
00:02:34.479 --> 00:02:37.240
<v Speaker 2>dare you to grow your faith, start your faith, reignite

48
00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:41.039
<v Speaker 2>your faith through the power of transparency of the Bible,

49
00:02:41.479 --> 00:02:46.280
<v Speaker 2>testimony and transformation. Right here with your boy kd a

50
00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:49.960
<v Speaker 2>former stand up comedian now turning evangelist for Christ and

51
00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:53.000
<v Speaker 2>all month long here in December, we've been bringing you

52
00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:55.439
<v Speaker 2>to a Day's Right to a day boot camps throughout

53
00:02:55.439 --> 00:02:59.199
<v Speaker 2>the week on Mondays and Wednesdays, we've been touching on

54
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:02.120
<v Speaker 2>this book called The Thirty Day Spiritual boot Camp by

55
00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:05.080
<v Speaker 2>the Franklins, and man it has been transformative, and we

56
00:03:05.159 --> 00:03:08.520
<v Speaker 2>take the power of scripture, talk about that scripture laced

57
00:03:08.520 --> 00:03:13.120
<v Speaker 2>around today's world, and we also talk about what the

58
00:03:13.240 --> 00:03:17.120
<v Speaker 2>grams say in a little story as well. So basically,

59
00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:19.479
<v Speaker 2>you know, when you go to workout, you go into

60
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:21.479
<v Speaker 2>a gym, you have a warm up, you have a workout,

61
00:03:21.479 --> 00:03:23.360
<v Speaker 2>and then you have a cool down. Right, Well, that's

62
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:25.479
<v Speaker 2>no different here on the show. We'll go through a

63
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:28.039
<v Speaker 2>warm up, which is a quick verse from the Bible.

64
00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:30.960
<v Speaker 2>We'll go through a workout, which is something that one

65
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:34.039
<v Speaker 2>of the grams have written, and we'll touch on paragraphs

66
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:37.240
<v Speaker 2>and add our own little Panashian, a little Dolly, a

67
00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:43.000
<v Speaker 2>little things into it, things from your good old boy here, Katie.

68
00:03:43.240 --> 00:03:45.800
<v Speaker 2>And then we'll cool down with some prayer. And if

69
00:03:45.800 --> 00:03:47.360
<v Speaker 2>you guys want to check out this book, we're not

70
00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:50.000
<v Speaker 2>going to go through all thirty one days. By the way,

71
00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:51.840
<v Speaker 2>make sure you go and check out this book at

72
00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:55.680
<v Speaker 2>your local library, The thirty Day Spiritual boot Camp. It

73
00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:59.520
<v Speaker 2>was given to me by a gentleman in my student

74
00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:02.879
<v Speaker 2>ministry class that we go to. And yes, your boy here,

75
00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:07.639
<v Speaker 2>Katie is studying in the world of student ministry right now,

76
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:14.120
<v Speaker 2>completing my courses on global university online as well digging

77
00:04:14.199 --> 00:04:18.120
<v Speaker 2>deeper into the Lord. Who would have thought from comedian

78
00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:21.360
<v Speaker 2>to evangelists right Well, that's why y'all are sticking around.

79
00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:24.399
<v Speaker 2>You don't know what I'm going to say. Comedians never

80
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:26.040
<v Speaker 2>know what they're going to say. Let alone have the

81
00:04:26.079 --> 00:04:28.680
<v Speaker 2>power of Christ in their hand. Look out. But let's

82
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:31.319
<v Speaker 2>get things started here. In day six of our program

83
00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:34.879
<v Speaker 2>here in December, getting you ready for your spiritual boot camp.

84
00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:38.839
<v Speaker 2>And this is perfect timing because we know the holidays

85
00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:42.639
<v Speaker 2>have been bestowed upon us since November with Thanksgiving. We're

86
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:45.079
<v Speaker 2>starting to get a lot of pressure. We're worrying about

87
00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:48.560
<v Speaker 2>people coming into our homes, we're worrying about providing gifts,

88
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:50.800
<v Speaker 2>paying our bills, and we have a lot of stress

89
00:04:51.079 --> 00:04:54.360
<v Speaker 2>around the holidays. So why not work out that stress

90
00:04:54.519 --> 00:04:58.199
<v Speaker 2>with another spiritual boot camp? So at ease, okay, and

91
00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:00.759
<v Speaker 2>let's get into where warm up this morning laced around

92
00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:05.079
<v Speaker 2>One Peter chapter two, verse nine. Again One Peter, Chapter two,

93
00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:08.920
<v Speaker 2>verse nine, and it states you are a chosen race,

94
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:14.360
<v Speaker 2>a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his

95
00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:18.759
<v Speaker 2>own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of Him

96
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:23.879
<v Speaker 2>who called you out of the darkness into his marvelous light.

97
00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:29.079
<v Speaker 2>Let's read that again. You are chosen right off the bat.

98
00:05:29.319 --> 00:05:31.800
<v Speaker 2>You have been chosen. You ever been sitting around going

99
00:05:31.959 --> 00:05:33.839
<v Speaker 2>I don't know why I'm here, I don't know what

100
00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:36.360
<v Speaker 2>my purpose is. I don't know why I'm on this earth.

101
00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:39.439
<v Speaker 2>What am I supposed to be doing? You're chosen, You're

102
00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:42.279
<v Speaker 2>part of a royal priesthood, that goes all the way

103
00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:45.079
<v Speaker 2>back to Adam and Eve in the lineage of David.

104
00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:48.720
<v Speaker 2>That's amazing right there in itself. And you may not

105
00:05:48.839 --> 00:05:52.720
<v Speaker 2>understand what I said if you're a non believer. David

106
00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:55.399
<v Speaker 2>was one of the greatest kings of all time, even

107
00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:58.800
<v Speaker 2>though he had stumbled as well in his life. We

108
00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:01.160
<v Speaker 2>all stumble and fall order the glory of God one

109
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:04.600
<v Speaker 2>of our favorite phrases here on the show. He was

110
00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:08.480
<v Speaker 2>the reason why Jesus came around in that lineage, then

111
00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:11.040
<v Speaker 2>Jesus came here to die on the cross for our sins.

112
00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:14.519
<v Speaker 2>You're part of a royal priesthood, a holy nation of people.

113
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:18.920
<v Speaker 2>And when we start accepting that, we realize we are

114
00:06:19.199 --> 00:06:23.120
<v Speaker 2>all together and we're not divided by a title that

115
00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:28.040
<v Speaker 2>has been cast upon us in society. Black White, Puerto

116
00:06:28.160 --> 00:06:34.160
<v Speaker 2>Rican Haitian non worker worker lgbtq X gets the square.

117
00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:36.920
<v Speaker 2>It really doesn't matter. You're a part of a royal

118
00:06:37.000 --> 00:06:42.079
<v Speaker 2>priesthood and you are something special. So what does Will

119
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:46.519
<v Speaker 2>Graham have to say in the Thirty Day Spiritual boot Camp, Well,

120
00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:49.360
<v Speaker 2>he goes on. He starts off by saying things were

121
00:06:49.399 --> 00:06:52.639
<v Speaker 2>going wrong in his personal life. He was immersed in

122
00:06:52.680 --> 00:06:57.279
<v Speaker 2>a society that valued everything that he stood against. He

123
00:06:57.399 --> 00:07:00.680
<v Speaker 2>was pressured to bow down and worship that they that

124
00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:04.240
<v Speaker 2>he knew were wrong. There was a constant temptation to

125
00:07:04.279 --> 00:07:07.319
<v Speaker 2>succumb to the worldliness around him. Does this sound like

126
00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:11.879
<v Speaker 2>some of you out there today? Sound familiar? He says no, Well,

127
00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:15.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm talking about the world we live in today. But

128
00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:18.800
<v Speaker 2>rather a young man from the Old Testament who was

129
00:07:18.879 --> 00:07:23.199
<v Speaker 2>captured and taken any captivity. His name was Daniel. Daniel's

130
00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:25.600
<v Speaker 2>home of Jerusalem had been overthrown, and he had been

131
00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:28.959
<v Speaker 2>carried off into foreign and godless land as a slave

132
00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:34.000
<v Speaker 2>of King Nebeconezzar. He endured a re education program they

133
00:07:34.040 --> 00:07:36.759
<v Speaker 2>called it. Does that sound like anything today? Your kids

134
00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:39.720
<v Speaker 2>going through school and they're re educating them, not teaching

135
00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:42.680
<v Speaker 2>them about certain parts of history. They're re educating them,

136
00:07:42.920 --> 00:07:45.639
<v Speaker 2>but they have certain moral values, and maybe they're growing

137
00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:48.560
<v Speaker 2>up in the church and they're battling with their learning

138
00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:52.720
<v Speaker 2>in school as opposed to what Israel. Daniel battled the

139
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:56.399
<v Speaker 2>same thing he meant. It was meant to assimilate Daniel

140
00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:59.160
<v Speaker 2>and other young men into a culture and prep them

141
00:07:59.439 --> 00:08:03.000
<v Speaker 2>to serve the king. He was taught. He was taught

142
00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:09.160
<v Speaker 2>things like astrology and magic, as well as different Babylonian languages. However,

143
00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:15.480
<v Speaker 2>Daniel proposed in his heart This is Daniel first, chapter one,

144
00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:19.720
<v Speaker 2>verse eight, that he would not disobey God, even in

145
00:08:19.720 --> 00:08:24.199
<v Speaker 2>the midst of the pressure and in temptation. Because of

146
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:28.800
<v Speaker 2>his faithfulness and obedience to God. God gave Daniel and

147
00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:34.080
<v Speaker 2>his friends Hanaiah, Michel, and Azraah knowledge and skill in

148
00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:38.840
<v Speaker 2>all literature and wisdom, and Daniel had been understanding visions

149
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:44.360
<v Speaker 2>through dreams. This is Daniel Chapter one, verse seventeen. You see,

150
00:08:44.440 --> 00:08:47.759
<v Speaker 2>Daniel had been given these things by God, but the

151
00:08:47.799 --> 00:08:50.200
<v Speaker 2>world around him was saying, I don't know about that.

152
00:08:50.919 --> 00:08:54.240
<v Speaker 2>You need to learn this, this, this, and this. Don't

153
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:58.000
<v Speaker 2>worry about those mumbo jumbo things that have been given

154
00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:01.919
<v Speaker 2>to you. This is still going onto You don't even

155
00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:05.159
<v Speaker 2>have to be a non believer. Rutr Did you say,

156
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:08.440
<v Speaker 2>raydy well Scooby, I'm about to tell you. You may

157
00:09:08.440 --> 00:09:12.240
<v Speaker 2>be sitting there and you're a non believer. I'm talking

158
00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:15.159
<v Speaker 2>to you about an almighty king that loves you more

159
00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:17.759
<v Speaker 2>than anything in this world, and you're like, I don't know.

160
00:09:17.960 --> 00:09:20.080
<v Speaker 2>I just want to stick to my conformed world that

161
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:22.279
<v Speaker 2>I know about. You're going through it right now too.

162
00:09:23.159 --> 00:09:25.840
<v Speaker 2>Us believers go through it every single day. We're all

163
00:09:25.840 --> 00:09:28.679
<v Speaker 2>in it together. Going back to One Peter, Chapter two,

164
00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:31.759
<v Speaker 2>verse nine, you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood,

165
00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:35.200
<v Speaker 2>a holy nation, a people for his own possession. Oh God,

166
00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:37.440
<v Speaker 2>I don't like that word possession. I'm on my own person.

167
00:09:37.480 --> 00:09:40.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm yolo yo. It's all about me. No, it's not.

168
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:43.559
<v Speaker 2>It's about a greater world around you. And he has

169
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:46.279
<v Speaker 2>you wrapped in his arms, hugging you. It's like when

170
00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:49.039
<v Speaker 2>you get a hug from that aunt around Christmas time

171
00:09:49.039 --> 00:09:52.039
<v Speaker 2>and you're like, don't stop hugging me. This is weird,

172
00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:54.759
<v Speaker 2>it feels gross. They're just trying to show you love.

173
00:09:54.759 --> 00:09:58.879
<v Speaker 2>And this is what our amazing, grateful father is trying

174
00:09:58.879 --> 00:10:01.120
<v Speaker 2>to deal with you right now and me. As we

175
00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:04.240
<v Speaker 2>go through this scripture, what else does will Graham have

176
00:10:04.360 --> 00:10:06.720
<v Speaker 2>to say about what's going on in Daniel's life In

177
00:10:06.759 --> 00:10:10.840
<v Speaker 2>the Bible, we fast forward to the centuries to today.

178
00:10:11.320 --> 00:10:14.240
<v Speaker 2>You haven't been captured and carried away and throw into

179
00:10:14.279 --> 00:10:17.799
<v Speaker 2>a far land. But the society around you, as I

180
00:10:17.919 --> 00:10:22.000
<v Speaker 2>just spoke of, perhaps looks unfamiliar and troubling, even you

181
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:24.799
<v Speaker 2>non believers. It looks troubling, right, You're like, I don't

182
00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:27.639
<v Speaker 2>know about Dad. That's crazy, that's some you know, that's

183
00:10:27.679 --> 00:10:30.480
<v Speaker 2>some brainwash type stuff. I used to believe that, by

184
00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:34.080
<v Speaker 2>the way, But young people like Daniel in his day

185
00:10:34.120 --> 00:10:37.279
<v Speaker 2>are especially being led astray and introduced by a culture

186
00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:40.320
<v Speaker 2>that is largely opposite of the life we're being called

187
00:10:40.360 --> 00:10:44.080
<v Speaker 2>as followers of Christ. You're being led into a world

188
00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:47.799
<v Speaker 2>of LGBTQ. You're being led into a world where in

189
00:10:47.840 --> 00:10:49.559
<v Speaker 2>the Bible it says a woman shall not be with

190
00:10:49.600 --> 00:10:51.679
<v Speaker 2>a woman and a man shall not be with a man.

191
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:54.720
<v Speaker 2>I know you non believers out there, really just like,

192
00:10:55.120 --> 00:10:59.039
<v Speaker 2>how dare he? He is casting his righteous values upon us.

193
00:10:59.120 --> 00:11:03.240
<v Speaker 2>It's not my value values, it's Godly values. And when

194
00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:06.679
<v Speaker 2>you learn the relationship with the Lord, you're gonna feel

195
00:11:06.679 --> 00:11:09.600
<v Speaker 2>the same convictions. You may be feeling that conviction right now.

196
00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:14.559
<v Speaker 2>And it's okay. I'm not here to cast any magical

197
00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:18.399
<v Speaker 2>spells on you to take you away from anything. I'm

198
00:11:18.440 --> 00:11:21.440
<v Speaker 2>here to spread the word and the gospel of Jesus

199
00:11:21.519 --> 00:11:24.240
<v Speaker 2>Christ and allow it to grow in your heart. He's

200
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:28.200
<v Speaker 2>gonna do the rest. You're going to develop a personal relationship.

201
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:30.960
<v Speaker 2>I can feel it because the relationships of this world

202
00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:34.240
<v Speaker 2>are just not working for you. He goes on, saying,

203
00:11:34.279 --> 00:11:37.399
<v Speaker 2>with so many prevalent temptations all around us, it would

204
00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:40.799
<v Speaker 2>be easy to assimilate and enjoy all the world has

205
00:11:40.840 --> 00:11:44.120
<v Speaker 2>to offer. Right. We are living in a world of freedom, right.

206
00:11:44.440 --> 00:11:47.000
<v Speaker 2>We're out there and we're having sex with this person,

207
00:11:47.080 --> 00:11:49.720
<v Speaker 2>having sex with that person. We're enjoying the relations here.

208
00:11:49.759 --> 00:11:52.759
<v Speaker 2>We're enjoying the relacation there. But I don't understand why

209
00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:55.360
<v Speaker 2>I started to get any kind of sickness in my

210
00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:57.679
<v Speaker 2>body because I've been with that person, this person and

211
00:11:57.720 --> 00:12:00.279
<v Speaker 2>that person. It's okay to drink and do drug. Give

212
00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:04.440
<v Speaker 2>me that needle over there. I know it's clean. I

213
00:12:04.559 --> 00:12:06.559
<v Speaker 2>stop there, because that's the world we're living in. We're

214
00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:11.480
<v Speaker 2>living in a Sodom and Gomorah state right now. And

215
00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:13.919
<v Speaker 2>if you know anything about Sodom and Gomorah, they were

216
00:12:14.559 --> 00:12:17.399
<v Speaker 2>men were having sex with men, women were having sex

217
00:12:17.399 --> 00:12:21.080
<v Speaker 2>with women. They were men dressing up as women. They

218
00:12:21.120 --> 00:12:25.360
<v Speaker 2>were enjoying the so called finer things of life. Right,

219
00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:28.679
<v Speaker 2>But they weren't following God in this angered God, and yes,

220
00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:32.000
<v Speaker 2>God can be angered. He is a good, good father,

221
00:12:32.639 --> 00:12:35.759
<v Speaker 2>just like any kind of person you look up to

222
00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:38.799
<v Speaker 2>in this world down here, they're gonna look at you

223
00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:40.399
<v Speaker 2>once in a while and say what are you doing?

224
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:44.120
<v Speaker 2>And they do it out of love. Though we look

225
00:12:44.919 --> 00:12:48.399
<v Speaker 2>when we're non believers at God when he gets angry

226
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:52.519
<v Speaker 2>as this casting god that hates us, he loves us.

227
00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:55.840
<v Speaker 2>He's looking at us, going what are you doing? I

228
00:12:55.919 --> 00:12:58.080
<v Speaker 2>have laid out the plans before you. You just have

229
00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:00.919
<v Speaker 2>to follow those steps and those paths through the good

230
00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:04.200
<v Speaker 2>old Bi b A Lee, the basic constructions before leaving earth.

231
00:13:04.200 --> 00:13:08.000
<v Speaker 2>But you're not doing it. You're not doing it because

232
00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:11.200
<v Speaker 2>you want to do it on your own accord. Well,

233
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:13.799
<v Speaker 2>you wonder why that you've fallen into a ditch. You

234
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:16.159
<v Speaker 2>wonder why that you can't keep crawling out of that ditch,

235
00:13:16.159 --> 00:13:17.600
<v Speaker 2>and when you do get to the top, you walk

236
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:20.519
<v Speaker 2>a little bit and fall again. We can't do it

237
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:23.399
<v Speaker 2>on our own. God is there right now talking to

238
00:13:23.480 --> 00:13:26.240
<v Speaker 2>you and I saying what are you doing? What are

239
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:33.039
<v Speaker 2>you doing? Will goes on and says, with so many

240
00:13:33.080 --> 00:13:35.759
<v Speaker 2>prevalent temptations all around us, it would be easy to

241
00:13:35.759 --> 00:13:38.080
<v Speaker 2>assimilate and enjoy all the world has to offer, like

242
00:13:38.120 --> 00:13:42.279
<v Speaker 2>I just said. However, like Daniel, we must propose in

243
00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:45.600
<v Speaker 2>our hearts to serve Jesus and him alone. And that's hard.

244
00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:48.240
<v Speaker 2>That may be hard for somebody out there who doesn't

245
00:13:48.279 --> 00:13:49.960
<v Speaker 2>have a mother and a father, or maybe had a

246
00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:52.080
<v Speaker 2>leader in their life. And it's hard for you to

247
00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:55.039
<v Speaker 2>look at somebody like Jesus who you can't see in

248
00:13:55.080 --> 00:13:57.919
<v Speaker 2>front of you, to be your personal lord and savior

249
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:01.000
<v Speaker 2>when you didn't have a leader on this earth. That

250
00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:03.000
<v Speaker 2>should be even more of a calling for you to

251
00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:05.879
<v Speaker 2>turn to something to help lead your life when you

252
00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:10.279
<v Speaker 2>haven't had it here throughout your life on earth. We

253
00:14:10.399 --> 00:14:12.879
<v Speaker 2>must feast on the things of the Lord rather than

254
00:14:12.879 --> 00:14:15.519
<v Speaker 2>the evils of this age. There's a lot of evil

255
00:14:15.600 --> 00:14:19.440
<v Speaker 2>out there. We're seeing it everywhere. We're seeing it in

256
00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:23.360
<v Speaker 2>movies such as Wicked, where you've seen the performers now

257
00:14:23.440 --> 00:14:27.200
<v Speaker 2>that have looked very healthy now turning into these ghoulish

258
00:14:27.240 --> 00:14:29.919
<v Speaker 2>looking characters. And you may giggle when I say that,

259
00:14:30.240 --> 00:14:33.639
<v Speaker 2>but you can't deny their transformation. Is not of this world,

260
00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:36.519
<v Speaker 2>and it's not of a heavenly world as either. And

261
00:14:36.559 --> 00:14:40.200
<v Speaker 2>it's not just Wicked, it's all around us. I mean

262
00:14:40.200 --> 00:14:44.240
<v Speaker 2>they even called it Wicked for a reason. The music

263
00:14:44.279 --> 00:14:48.720
<v Speaker 2>you listen to, the social media craze right now of

264
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:52.240
<v Speaker 2>six seven was created by a man who is not

265
00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:55.279
<v Speaker 2>believing in God, but he believes in other dark forces.

266
00:14:56.480 --> 00:14:58.919
<v Speaker 2>This is scary. We need to open our eyes. And

267
00:14:58.960 --> 00:15:01.639
<v Speaker 2>he says it right there, we must feast our things

268
00:15:02.039 --> 00:15:04.679
<v Speaker 2>of the Lord rather than the evils of this age.

269
00:15:04.799 --> 00:15:07.279
<v Speaker 2>We're seeing the evils of this age still to this

270
00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:10.159
<v Speaker 2>day in twenty twenty five. So how do we do that?

271
00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:14.320
<v Speaker 2>When I want to improve my health, I not only

272
00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:17.399
<v Speaker 2>eat good things but stay away from the bad. It's

273
00:15:17.399 --> 00:15:19.399
<v Speaker 2>the same thing spiritually. We talk about this on the

274
00:15:19.399 --> 00:15:21.919
<v Speaker 2>show all the time. We must consume the Word of

275
00:15:21.919 --> 00:15:27.399
<v Speaker 2>God and talk daily to our sustainer and prayer while

276
00:15:27.399 --> 00:15:32.320
<v Speaker 2>pursuing righteousness and avoiding these worldly temptations. As we do,

277
00:15:32.480 --> 00:15:35.679
<v Speaker 2>God will not only give wisdom and understanding, but I

278
00:15:35.759 --> 00:15:40.000
<v Speaker 2>believe opportunities to share His hope with those around us.

279
00:15:41.080 --> 00:15:46.200
<v Speaker 2>That's what William Graham closes on with our workout today.

280
00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:49.360
<v Speaker 2>It's a strong workout, right, but we're not done there.

281
00:15:49.639 --> 00:15:51.399
<v Speaker 2>I want to touch on something where he says we

282
00:15:51.440 --> 00:15:54.919
<v Speaker 2>must consume the Word of God and talk daily to

283
00:15:55.000 --> 00:15:58.879
<v Speaker 2>him through prayer. Prayer is the key to it all.

284
00:15:59.399 --> 00:16:01.440
<v Speaker 2>You may not know how to pray, and in the

285
00:16:01.440 --> 00:16:04.960
<v Speaker 2>month of January, We're gonna do a spiritual boot camp again,

286
00:16:05.559 --> 00:16:08.120
<v Speaker 2>laced around prayer. How do I pray? How do I

287
00:16:08.159 --> 00:16:10.720
<v Speaker 2>read the Bible. We're going to start the new year

288
00:16:10.840 --> 00:16:13.320
<v Speaker 2>off right from the beginning, and I'm gonna be right

289
00:16:13.360 --> 00:16:17.399
<v Speaker 2>there with you. I am no greater than anybody else,

290
00:16:17.399 --> 00:16:20.360
<v Speaker 2>because sometimes I need to get back to basics. We

291
00:16:20.480 --> 00:16:24.039
<v Speaker 2>forget the basic things like prayer and just opening the Bible.

292
00:16:26.159 --> 00:16:28.240
<v Speaker 2>Then it may lead to a conviction in your heart

293
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:31.159
<v Speaker 2>to start finding a church that suits you, maybe a

294
00:16:31.240 --> 00:16:34.639
<v Speaker 2>small group that suits you. There's all types of groups

295
00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:37.039
<v Speaker 2>like that out there. I'm starting one next year just

296
00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:39.120
<v Speaker 2>for the guys, where we get together and do manly

297
00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:43.480
<v Speaker 2>things and then lace it around scripture. We'll watch sporting events,

298
00:16:43.519 --> 00:16:46.840
<v Speaker 2>We'll watch comedy shows. Yes, we can laugh and watch comedy.

299
00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:50.679
<v Speaker 2>We'll also talk about Valentine's Day where we need to

300
00:16:50.720 --> 00:16:53.960
<v Speaker 2>be more loving unto others. We need to be spiritual

301
00:16:54.039 --> 00:16:57.600
<v Speaker 2>leaders in our home. There are groups like that in

302
00:16:57.639 --> 00:17:00.039
<v Speaker 2>your area, but you have to do the work and

303
00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:03.600
<v Speaker 2>dig to find it. We think that God has this

304
00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:06.000
<v Speaker 2>magical genie and we can just rub this lamp and

305
00:17:06.039 --> 00:17:09.519
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden poof, there he is. We don't

306
00:17:09.640 --> 00:17:11.960
<v Speaker 2>use a magical lamp. We use the power of prayer.

307
00:17:12.240 --> 00:17:15.599
<v Speaker 2>Dear Lord, help me. I don't know how to pray.

308
00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:18.799
<v Speaker 2>But this guy on a podcast, this guy on social media,

309
00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:21.480
<v Speaker 2>this guy or a woman that put up a video

310
00:17:21.599 --> 00:17:24.279
<v Speaker 2>post that it was talking about prayer. And you're gonna

311
00:17:24.319 --> 00:17:26.400
<v Speaker 2>start to see this come across your feed more. You're

312
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:29.240
<v Speaker 2>gonna see prayer. You're gonna see God and he's calling

313
00:17:29.319 --> 00:17:31.519
<v Speaker 2>to you. He's knocking on the door waiting for you

314
00:17:31.559 --> 00:17:34.839
<v Speaker 2>to open. But you need to sustain to going to

315
00:17:34.920 --> 00:17:39.799
<v Speaker 2>Him through prayer. This is how we pursue righteousness and

316
00:17:39.880 --> 00:17:42.880
<v Speaker 2>avoid worldly temptations. Will you slip into worldly temptations from

317
00:17:42.880 --> 00:17:46.599
<v Speaker 2>time time? Yes, I do it from time to time,

318
00:17:47.640 --> 00:17:49.960
<v Speaker 2>But when I get into prayer, it's just something about it.

319
00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:51.599
<v Speaker 2>Then when I get into the Word and I start

320
00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:54.200
<v Speaker 2>studying the scriptures, even if I don't understand what they mean,

321
00:17:54.240 --> 00:17:59.640
<v Speaker 2>at times, I'm walking with Him. And that's what you

322
00:17:59.640 --> 00:18:03.240
<v Speaker 2>need to do. We got to try to stay away

323
00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:05.440
<v Speaker 2>from worldly temptation and put the full armor of God

324
00:18:05.480 --> 00:18:08.319
<v Speaker 2>on us daily. You'll hear that in your walk with Christ.

325
00:18:08.920 --> 00:18:12.759
<v Speaker 2>Look up the full armor of God. But let's cool down.

326
00:18:12.799 --> 00:18:15.759
<v Speaker 2>I think we worked out hard enough right, we are

327
00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:20.559
<v Speaker 2>on a roll. We worked out hard enough in this episode,

328
00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:24.400
<v Speaker 2>but let's cool down with some prayer. Dear God, Lord,

329
00:18:24.400 --> 00:18:26.599
<v Speaker 2>give me the strength to remain different from the culture

330
00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:30.519
<v Speaker 2>I live in, and help me serve you alone. Remind

331
00:18:30.559 --> 00:18:34.759
<v Speaker 2>me to rely on you when I face temptations and distractions.

332
00:18:35.480 --> 00:18:38.240
<v Speaker 2>We pray in the precious name of Jesus. Amen. And

333
00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:42.519
<v Speaker 2>you know that concludes our day six of this thirty

334
00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:45.000
<v Speaker 2>day Spiritual boot Camp. And we're not going to get

335
00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:47.680
<v Speaker 2>through all thirty days, but we may do it throughout

336
00:18:47.680 --> 00:18:51.640
<v Speaker 2>the year. Highly advise you starting with books like this,

337
00:18:51.960 --> 00:18:55.640
<v Speaker 2>easy to read, simple to start, gives you some scripture

338
00:18:56.160 --> 00:18:58.680
<v Speaker 2>and helps you say, wow, let me dig into the

339
00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:03.000
<v Speaker 2>Bible a little bit more. Again. It's called the Thirty

340
00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:07.519
<v Speaker 2>Days Spiritual boot Camp by the Grams. We're bringing you

341
00:19:07.559 --> 00:19:10.079
<v Speaker 2>the most weekend throughout the month of December on Monday

342
00:19:10.079 --> 00:19:13.039
<v Speaker 2>and Wednesdays. We want you to get through the weekend

343
00:19:13.440 --> 00:19:16.279
<v Speaker 2>with prayer or maybe finding a church. Maybe you're still

344
00:19:16.279 --> 00:19:19.640
<v Speaker 2>a non believer sitting around here not knowing. If you're

345
00:19:19.640 --> 00:19:22.039
<v Speaker 2>a non believer and you're wondering what this is all about,

346
00:19:22.079 --> 00:19:25.079
<v Speaker 2>and you wonder why you keep stumbling upon things of

347
00:19:25.119 --> 00:19:28.640
<v Speaker 2>God and things of Jesus, because there's a spiritual renewing

348
00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:32.400
<v Speaker 2>happening in this country and in this world. We're tired

349
00:19:32.440 --> 00:19:35.519
<v Speaker 2>of the things happening. We're tired of the hate, We're

350
00:19:35.519 --> 00:19:39.519
<v Speaker 2>tired of the division. We're tired of seeing things on

351
00:19:39.599 --> 00:19:42.240
<v Speaker 2>the news where this guy's doing that and this country's

352
00:19:42.279 --> 00:19:44.920
<v Speaker 2>doing this. We want to rest in the Lord. Man.

353
00:19:44.960 --> 00:19:46.720
<v Speaker 2>Ever since I've been resting in the Lord, I don't

354
00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:48.920
<v Speaker 2>care about that stuff out there, and I keep my

355
00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:52.559
<v Speaker 2>eyes focused on Jesus. I'm like, man, all right, he's coming.

356
00:19:53.119 --> 00:19:56.279
<v Speaker 2>I know I'm saved, But what about you? Are you saved?

357
00:19:56.319 --> 00:19:58.759
<v Speaker 2>Do you know if you're saved and if you're not

358
00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:01.359
<v Speaker 2>saved to be caught up in the ways of the world.

359
00:20:01.480 --> 00:20:03.319
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna be caught up in the Book of Revelation.

360
00:20:03.599 --> 00:20:05.920
<v Speaker 2>Don't go in there just yet. Don't go in there

361
00:20:05.960 --> 00:20:10.440
<v Speaker 2>just yet, because your mind will be blown. You'll see

362
00:20:10.440 --> 00:20:12.680
<v Speaker 2>that there will be wars and the speaking of wars.

363
00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:15.359
<v Speaker 2>You will see nations coming upon nations. You will start

364
00:20:15.400 --> 00:20:17.680
<v Speaker 2>to see famine. You'll to see this and start to

365
00:20:17.720 --> 00:20:20.759
<v Speaker 2>see that, and you're not saved, and you're gonna be

366
00:20:20.799 --> 00:20:24.359
<v Speaker 2>stuck in that turmoil and torment. And then when you're

367
00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:29.920
<v Speaker 2>not saved, you think that turmoil and torment is enough. Well,

368
00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:31.920
<v Speaker 2>if you're not saved, you're gonna be cast into the

369
00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:35.680
<v Speaker 2>lake of fire. Would you rather go on vacation on

370
00:20:35.759 --> 00:20:37.920
<v Speaker 2>a beach or would you rather be thrown into a volcano?

371
00:20:38.039 --> 00:20:41.160
<v Speaker 2>Answer that question, because this is your opportunity a plane

372
00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:44.920
<v Speaker 2>tipic now to go to the beach. How so by

373
00:20:44.960 --> 00:20:46.480
<v Speaker 2>turning your life over to the Lord, and I can

374
00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:48.839
<v Speaker 2>feel it and all you have to do right now,

375
00:20:49.319 --> 00:20:53.319
<v Speaker 2>wherever you may be, open up your arms, close your eyes,

376
00:20:54.079 --> 00:20:58.200
<v Speaker 2>and repeat after me. Dear God, I am a sinner.

377
00:20:59.400 --> 00:21:03.759
<v Speaker 2>I send falls short the glory of God. But I

378
00:21:03.799 --> 00:21:07.079
<v Speaker 2>want to sin no longer. I want to make you

379
00:21:07.119 --> 00:21:11.119
<v Speaker 2>my personal Lord and savior. I believe you're a real

380
00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:16.480
<v Speaker 2>that you were born, you died and raised on the

381
00:21:16.519 --> 00:21:21.319
<v Speaker 2>third Day for your victory and mine. Dear Lord, make

382
00:21:21.400 --> 00:21:26.599
<v Speaker 2>me new, wash me of these sins, allow me to

383
00:21:26.720 --> 00:21:29.640
<v Speaker 2>follow you and make you my personal Lord and savior

384
00:21:29.720 --> 00:21:33.559
<v Speaker 2>until the end of my days. Dear Lord, I love

385
00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:37.279
<v Speaker 2>you and thank you, and I'm just touching the tip

386
00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:40.920
<v Speaker 2>of the iceberg with you, but please don't let me go.

387
00:21:42.559 --> 00:21:45.880
<v Speaker 2>Dear Lord, thank you for saving my life. We pray

388
00:21:45.880 --> 00:21:48.960
<v Speaker 2>in the precious name of Jesus. Amen. If you just

389
00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:52.240
<v Speaker 2>repeated that prayer, Welcome to the most elusive club in

390
00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:56.519
<v Speaker 2>the world, as you now are a part of walking

391
00:21:56.559 --> 00:22:02.920
<v Speaker 2>with Christ. You're VIP. Now what do I do, Katie, Well,

392
00:22:03.240 --> 00:22:05.640
<v Speaker 2>jump in the Bible, Go in the Book of Proverbs.

393
00:22:06.279 --> 00:22:08.799
<v Speaker 2>Get yourself a book like the thirty Day Spiritual boot

394
00:22:08.839 --> 00:22:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Camp thirty day Spiritual Workout. Start with something like that.

395
00:22:13.559 --> 00:22:16.920
<v Speaker 2>Start with something little, a devotional where you can read

396
00:22:17.039 --> 00:22:21.319
<v Speaker 2>just one passage a story, and then you'll open up

397
00:22:21.319 --> 00:22:25.519
<v Speaker 2>the Bible the Proverbs chapter one and two, and three,

398
00:22:25.680 --> 00:22:27.920
<v Speaker 2>then four, go all the way through thirty one of them,

399
00:22:27.960 --> 00:22:31.440
<v Speaker 2>which is about thirty one days in each month. Everything

400
00:22:31.559 --> 00:22:36.759
<v Speaker 2>is amazingly designed by Him. And then you want to

401
00:22:36.799 --> 00:22:41.000
<v Speaker 2>get closer to Jesus. Study about the Disciples, Matthew, Mark,

402
00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:47.400
<v Speaker 2>loub John, study them all, Paul and the Bible. They

403
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:51.200
<v Speaker 2>knew who Jesus was, They know his heart and so

404
00:22:51.359 --> 00:22:54.319
<v Speaker 2>will you. Again, guys, thanks for listening. We'll see you
