So 6 00:00:26,515 --> 00:00:28,774 I'm gonna pretend I can see you. Visualization 7 00:00:29,234 --> 00:00:31,414 is a big part of, of 8 00:00:32,515 --> 00:00:35,975 of seeing what we have. Believing is seeing, 9 00:00:37,039 --> 00:00:39,679 and actually it's tying in. I'm learning a 10 00:00:39,679 --> 00:00:40,820 lot about visualization 11 00:00:41,759 --> 00:00:42,500 right now. 12 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:43,939 Godly visualization. 13 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:45,380 I mean visualization 14 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:46,145 works, 15 00:00:46,704 --> 00:00:47,445 And so 16 00:00:48,865 --> 00:00:51,664 I made a podcast yesterday, but I filled 17 00:00:51,664 --> 00:00:53,844 it with so many scriptures. It's like, 18 00:00:54,329 --> 00:00:57,129 I just scrapped that recording. So what I'm 19 00:00:57,129 --> 00:00:58,890 gonna do is my aim is to keep 20 00:00:58,890 --> 00:01:00,589 these to 10 minutes a day, 21 00:01:00,890 --> 00:01:02,304 10 minutes max. 22 00:01:02,844 --> 00:01:04,364 So that you can be on your way 23 00:01:04,364 --> 00:01:06,305 and get a little charge from me. 24 00:01:06,765 --> 00:01:07,265 Alright. 25 00:01:08,284 --> 00:01:10,064 The word power, 26 00:01:11,010 --> 00:01:12,310 actually, that thought, 27 00:01:12,609 --> 00:01:15,250 that that title actually came from a scripture 28 00:01:15,250 --> 00:01:15,909 in Hebrews. 29 00:01:16,609 --> 00:01:17,010 It's, 30 00:01:18,025 --> 00:01:20,344 Jesus is, you know, talking about Jesus says, 31 00:01:20,344 --> 00:01:23,245 and express image of his person and upholding 32 00:01:23,465 --> 00:01:25,805 all things by the word of his power, 33 00:01:27,010 --> 00:01:29,430 Not the power of his word, 34 00:01:30,290 --> 00:01:31,270 but the word 35 00:01:31,650 --> 00:01:33,590 of his power. There's a big difference. 36 00:01:34,665 --> 00:01:35,564 As you know, 37 00:01:36,185 --> 00:01:36,424 the, 38 00:01:37,144 --> 00:01:39,064 and I'll remind you again, you know, rep 39 00:01:39,144 --> 00:01:41,625 I repeat myself a lot because just have 40 00:01:41,625 --> 00:01:44,040 to hammer it into some people. But 41 00:01:44,599 --> 00:01:46,140 but in order to break 42 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,799 people's thinking habits, I just have to repeat 43 00:01:49,799 --> 00:01:51,260 myself over and over. 44 00:01:52,395 --> 00:01:53,775 Because what I'm reintroducing 45 00:01:54,875 --> 00:01:55,935 to people 46 00:01:56,314 --> 00:01:58,715 is that the concept that they have been 47 00:01:58,715 --> 00:02:01,219 taught to talk wrong. We've been brainwashed to 48 00:02:01,219 --> 00:02:03,159 talk wrong from childbirth 49 00:02:03,939 --> 00:02:06,600 by using this word want the wrong way. 50 00:02:07,219 --> 00:02:07,719 Okay. 51 00:02:08,500 --> 00:02:11,064 There's a verse in, Hebrews. Right? This is 52 00:02:11,064 --> 00:02:13,245 this this goes to a promise. I mean, 53 00:02:13,944 --> 00:02:16,665 Jesus said we will have whatsoever things we 54 00:02:16,665 --> 00:02:19,250 say. Proverbs 6:2. We are snared by the 55 00:02:19,250 --> 00:02:20,610 words of our mouth, and what I do 56 00:02:20,610 --> 00:02:22,949 is I help people unsnare themselves. 57 00:02:24,209 --> 00:02:24,709 Okay. 58 00:02:25,169 --> 00:02:27,590 And it's by using words as well. 59 00:02:28,824 --> 00:02:31,385 Hebrews Hebrews 41, it says, let us therefore 60 00:02:31,385 --> 00:02:34,264 fear, lest a promise being left us of 61 00:02:34,264 --> 00:02:35,879 entering into his rest. 62 00:02:36,439 --> 00:02:37,900 So what I'm helping to do 63 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,080 is help people get into that rest. Jesus 64 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:42,439 said, come on to me all you that 65 00:02:42,439 --> 00:02:44,439 labor and heavy laden, and I will give 66 00:02:44,439 --> 00:02:45,175 you rest. 67 00:02:45,735 --> 00:02:46,235 Well, 68 00:02:47,014 --> 00:02:48,694 let's say somebody is out there and they 69 00:02:48,694 --> 00:02:51,415 say, yeah, I want that rest. People go 70 00:02:51,415 --> 00:02:52,074 to church. 71 00:02:52,599 --> 00:02:54,840 It's almost dangerous to go to church without 72 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,020 this revelation in my opinion 73 00:02:57,719 --> 00:02:58,219 because 74 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:00,540 nowhere else 75 00:03:01,025 --> 00:03:03,425 is pea you know, the pastor saying God 76 00:03:03,425 --> 00:03:06,305 wants you rich. What he actually just said 77 00:03:06,305 --> 00:03:08,165 is God is impoverished 78 00:03:08,705 --> 00:03:10,539 of you being rich, 79 00:03:11,259 --> 00:03:14,239 and the truth is no he's not, 80 00:03:15,099 --> 00:03:17,840 but if you agree with that you're agreeing 81 00:03:17,979 --> 00:03:19,680 to the poverty. See 82 00:03:20,125 --> 00:03:21,264 poverty is a curse. 83 00:03:21,805 --> 00:03:24,224 Jesus said that we can bless or curse, 84 00:03:24,525 --> 00:03:25,664 right, with our mouths. 85 00:03:26,284 --> 00:03:29,344 And so when people say they want something 86 00:03:29,949 --> 00:03:31,629 as I did in the past what God 87 00:03:31,629 --> 00:03:34,269 showed me, okay, before I I I saw 88 00:03:34,269 --> 00:03:34,769 this, 89 00:03:35,069 --> 00:03:36,829 was I saw When I would say I 90 00:03:36,829 --> 00:03:39,224 want something, which is a desire in my 91 00:03:39,224 --> 00:03:42,265 heart, which was outside of my dominion, outside 92 00:03:42,265 --> 00:03:43,165 of my control. 93 00:03:43,944 --> 00:03:45,625 I couldn't just reach over and get a 94 00:03:45,625 --> 00:03:47,889 coffee by saying, you know, I would like 95 00:03:47,889 --> 00:03:49,729 a coffee. I want a coffee. Do you 96 00:03:49,729 --> 00:03:51,250 want a coffee? Yeah. I get I can 97 00:03:51,250 --> 00:03:52,610 reach. I can go over and make a 98 00:03:52,610 --> 00:03:54,150 coffee. I like coffee. 99 00:03:56,165 --> 00:03:57,545 I talk about it a lot. 100 00:03:58,724 --> 00:04:01,305 So things outside of my dominion and authority, 101 00:04:01,444 --> 00:04:02,825 I was cursing myself. 102 00:04:03,860 --> 00:04:05,379 And what I tell people is I say, 103 00:04:05,379 --> 00:04:08,199 when you say you want something, you're actually 104 00:04:08,259 --> 00:04:09,639 creating the obstacles, 105 00:04:09,939 --> 00:04:11,319 roadblocks, and hindrances 106 00:04:11,620 --> 00:04:14,504 to the very thing that your heart desires. 107 00:04:14,805 --> 00:04:17,704 But you cursed yourself by saying you're impoverished 108 00:04:18,245 --> 00:04:20,485 of it. How did I do that? By 109 00:04:20,485 --> 00:04:21,785 saying that you want 110 00:04:22,300 --> 00:04:23,360 it.
