00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:11.199 Because I said the word chicken. 00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:13.040 And some of you guys, you might be a farmer. 00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:15.279 You're thinking about the chicken that's on your farm. 00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:19.040 It created a thought because I said something. 00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:19.839 Okay? 00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:23.519 So, so, so, so, where do thoughts come from? 00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:27.600 It comes from words by what you're speaking. 00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:32.639 So, if you want to renew your mind, you got to make sure you're saying the right words. 00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:36.800 You got to make sure you got the right images before you. 00:06:37.680 --> 00:06:41.120 Because images frames your mind. 00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:45.759 If I keep seeing lack, I'm gonna keep thinking about poverty. 00:06:46.000 --> 00:07:01.040 If I if I if I if I keep seeing the struggle, I'm not gonna have uh a drive to to to experience the prosperity, the blessings of God that God wants me to see. 00:07:01.920 --> 00:07:07.839 I gotta have the right images, words, images, emotions, emotions create thoughts. 00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:12.079 How you ever had someone piss you off? 00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:18.399 I don't know if I'm supposed to use the word piss though, but you ever had someone get on your your your darn nerves. 00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:19.120 I didn't cuss. 00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:20.560 The preacher didn't cuss. 00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:22.160 Huh?

00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:50.800 Thoughts create your thinking, and your thinking needs to be transformed by what you're speaking, by what you're seeing, by what you're hearing. 00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:56.399 All right, and make sure you got your emotions in check. 00:07:56.639 --> 00:07:58.959 Emotions are very powerful. 00:07:59.199 --> 00:08:09.279 Some of us allow feelings, our emotions to control us, to dictate how we're going to respond to things, to dictate how we're going to act. 00:08:10.639 --> 00:08:14.560 Some of us allowed our emotions to get us into a lot of trouble. 00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:15.680 Mighty God. 00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:18.000 I'm talking heavy. 00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:26.720 Some of us allowed our emotions to get into an argument, allowed our emotions to cause problems. 00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:30.639 Now, let me talk to the married folks. 00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:32.159 Let me look at this camera. 00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:34.399 Let me talk to the married folks. 00:08:34.639 --> 00:08:39.200 Some of us allowed our emotions to argue with our spouse. 00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:43.519 I've been married now, going on. 00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:45.679 I'm 15 years and several months. 00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:53.360 I'm working on 16 years with my beautiful, lovely, fine, good-looking wife. 00:08:53.600 --> 00:08:53.919 Right? 00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:55.519 By the way, her birthday is Sunday. 00:08:55.600 --> 00:08:57.840 So happy early birthday, baby. 00:08:58.000 --> 00:08:58.720 Shout out to you. 00:08:58.879 --> 00:08:59.840 The one and only, Mrs. 00:08:59.919 --> 00:09:03.120 Natalie Celent, soon to be a physician assistant. 00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:04.240 She's brilliant. 00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:05.759 Watch this now, though. 00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:08.799 Sometimes we allow emotions. 00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:13.759 Now, my wife would tell me, so I'm not gonna talk about her, because she would say, talk for yourself. 00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:18.399 So I'm gonna talk for myself. 00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:21.759 Sometimes I allow my emotions to get in the way. 00:09:22.799 --> 00:09:26.080 And it caused something that was small to become big. 00:09:26.399 --> 00:09:28.639 Married folks, y'all know I'm telling the truth. 00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:32.720 Because some of the arguments that we had is because our ego got in the way. 00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:35.519 The acronym for ego is edging God out. 00:09:36.960 --> 00:09:39.600 Our emotions caused us to edge God out. 00:09:40.080 --> 00:09:42.000 Our ego got in the way. 00:09:42.559 --> 00:09:42.879 Why? 00:09:43.039 --> 00:09:44.879 Because we didn't have our emotions in check. 00:09:44.960 --> 00:09:48.320 And because we didn't have our emotions in check, we had the wrong thought. 00:09:48.480 --> 00:09:52.000 And sometimes that thought would have been, I'm gonna win this conversation. 00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:54.000 Or who are you talking to like that? 00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:55.360 I'm the man. 00:09:56.159

00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:23.200 Because Jesus is the greatest leader. 00:12:23.519 --> 00:12:36.080 Is uh this man is probably the best when it comes to leadership because he spent his whole entire life writing on leadership, and that is the one and only John C. 00:12:36.639 --> 00:12:37.279 Maxwell. 00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:38.960 He wrote tons of leadership books. 00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:43.360 If anything you want to know about leadership, make sure, buy his book, study it. 00:12:44.159 --> 00:12:46.960 But here's what here's what blew my blew me away. 00:12:47.759 --> 00:12:51.919 I was just with him a few moments ago, a few months ago. 00:12:52.159 --> 00:12:57.440 I was in a meeting, he was talking, and he's he's an older man now. 00:12:57.759 --> 00:12:59.600 Now you can't call him old. 00:13:00.320 --> 00:13:08.879 So but what blew my away is that he said, I'm still growing, I'm still feeding my spirit. 00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:15.440 Here he's 70 plus years old, and he's still growing his mind. 00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:18.799 Why? 00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:23.919 Because he believed there's another level, and there is another level. 00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:26.240 Okay, so that's that. 00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:30.559 Point number two, you gotta see things differently, see it differently. 00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:34.159 Okay, in order for you to renew your mind, okay. 00:13:34.399 --> 00:13:38.080 Number one, you gotta yeah, transformation starts within your mind. 00:13:38.240 --> 00:13:40.399 Number two, you gotta see things differently. 00:13:40.720 --> 00:13:44.000 To renew your mind, you gotta see that your mind can be changed. 00:13:44.320 --> 00:13:50.320 For example, when Jesus was talking and dealing with people and engaging with people, you know what Jesus saw? 00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:52.639 He saw potential in people. 00:13:53.440 --> 00:13:57.279 So you got to see potential in yourself, that your mind can be renewed. 00:13:57.360 --> 00:14:00.240 You got to see potential in yourself that you can grow. 00:14:00.320 --> 00:14:04.320 You got to see potential in yourself, in yourself. 00:14:04.559 --> 00:14:06.000 You ought to say that to yourself. 00:14:06.159 --> 00:14:13.600 Matter of fact, if you listen to say, I see potential in myself, that I'm somewhere in the future and I look much better than I look right now. 00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:16.559 You you ought to say that my mind is renewed. 00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:24.480 I think, I think right, I think rich, I think wealthy, I think like a prosperous man, I think like a prosperous lady. 00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:26.559 I I am blessed. 00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:29.279 I see greatness inside of me. 00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:32.159 You got to see yourself differently. 00:14:33.200 --> 00:14:33.759 Huh? 00:14:34.879 --> 00:14:40.639 Others can see greatness in you, but you got to see greatness in yourself too, as well. 00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:44.559 Stop seeing yourself from your failures. 00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:53.840 Sometimes we focus on just our failures, and we're going to have failures. 00:14:55.600 -->
