00:00:01.919 --> 00:00:05.200
Welcome to Talk Heavy with John Solette.
00:00:05.519 --> 00:00:06.719
Go with God.
00:00:07.200 --> 00:00:15.119
Where we have real conversations about faith, family, finances, leadership, health, and life.
00:00:15.279 --> 00:00:20.960
Whether you're looking to grow spiritually, personally, or professionally, you're in the right place.
00:00:21.280 --> 00:00:23.839
Let's talk heavy.
00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:29.839
What's going on, guys?
00:00:30.079 --> 00:00:34.159
It's the one and only John Celent.
00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:37.840
And you're listening to Talk Heavy.
00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:40.079
I got to say that one more time.
00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:41.200
I like what I said.
00:00:41.359 --> 00:00:42.799
You're listening to what?
00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:45.039
Talk heavy.
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:48.159
When we have real conversation, right?
00:00:48.479 --> 00:00:50.640
We get down to the nitty-gritty.
00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:51.359
Guess what?
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:55.200
When it's heavy, that means it's going to carry a lot of weight.
00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:03.359
And some conversations are weighty, and we really don't want to have it because it's uncomfortable.
00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:13.599
But here at Talk Heavy, we're going to have the conversation and we're going to make it where you're able to identify and deal with it.
00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:19.439
Listen, I want to thank every person that is watching on YouTube.
00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:27.840
And if you're listening on your favorite podcast platform, either Spotify or Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts.
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:29.200
There's so many different platforms out there.
00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:31.680
If I didn't call it out, forgive me.
00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:34.319
But thank you for listening.
00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:35.439
Here's what I want you to do.
00:01:35.519 --> 00:01:37.760
I want you to leave a review.
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:38.319
Okay.
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:40.480
And also share this.
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:43.680
Share with your friends, your family, your co-worker.
00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:46.159
Matter of fact, share with a stranger too.
00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:49.040
Share it with a stranger.
00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:54.400
Like, leave a review, comment, share the whole nine yards.
00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:55.280
Because guess what?
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:58.079
You're making an impact, right?
00:01:58.799 --> 00:02:03.359
By sharing this information because we're giving away value.
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:04.000
All right.
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:08.240
Especially if it's been a blessing to you, you know that it's going to bless others.
00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:09.439
So I just want to say thank you.
00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:10.879
I really appreciate you.
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:14.319
You know, we've been talking about transformation.
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:20.400
In the last episode, I talked about it was never about the weight.
00:02:21.199

--> 00:02:23.439
It was never about the weight.
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:35.840
I talked about how God began to deal with me by identifying that the problem wasn't the weight.
00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:40.879
Although the weight was a problem, the problem was me.
00:02:41.520 --> 00:02:42.960
The problem was who?
00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:44.879
It was me.
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:53.199
And the biggest enemy is your inner me.
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:54.879
Right?
00:02:55.120 --> 00:02:58.960
The biggest enemy is your inner me.
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:13.039
So today, on this episode, we're going to continue transformation, but we're going to talk about transformation by changing from the inside out.
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:15.680
We're going to get heavy.
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:16.240
All right.
00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:17.759
Now we I read a scripture.
00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:18.560
I'm going to read it again.
00:03:18.719 --> 00:03:21.199
The book of Romans, chapter 12.
00:03:21.360 --> 00:03:24.960
Now, that's not a Bible study, but although it could be a Bible study.
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:28.319
The book of Romans, chapter 12, verse 2.
00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:32.080
I read it from the New International Version.
00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:33.759
This time I'm going to do something different.
00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:35.759
I'm going to read it from the King James version.
00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:36.800
Hold on.
00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:38.240
Let's pull it out.
00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:39.120
Let's pull that out.
00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:41.039
Let's pull that up.
00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:46.560
Let's read it from the KJV, King James version.
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:47.360
All right.
00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:48.240
Hold on.
00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:49.199
All right.
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:50.960
The book of Romans.
00:03:51.520 --> 00:03:53.039
I had to switch.
00:03:54.479 --> 00:03:55.680
Romans 12.
00:03:55.840 --> 00:03:57.120
Okay, there you go.
00:03:57.360 --> 00:03:59.039
Now, verse 2.
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:10.080
It says, and be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind.
00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:11.759
Glory to God.
00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:18.639
That you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:25.120
And I want to focus on this, one part of this word, this verse.
00:04:25.600 --> 00:04:34.000
But be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind.
00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:36.480
Point number one.
00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:49.360
Transformation, just like in the scripture, just like in Romans 12, verse 2, transformation starts from your mind.
00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:52.959
You got to renew your mind.
00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:58.240
Some of us, like me, had what stinking thinking.
00:04:58.720 --> 00:04:59.360
Bars.
00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:02.000
I just spent some bars.
00:05:03.600 --> 00:05:05.439
Some of us had some what?
00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:08.000
Stinking thinking.
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:09.839
Your thinking stink.
00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:13.439
It gives out a bad odor.
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:19.600
You're seeing bad results because you're not thinking right.
00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:26.560
You see, before your light change, you got to change the way you think.
00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:29.839
How do you think?
00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:33.600
If you remember, I think it's on my first or second episode.
00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:35.439
Thinking is what?
00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:37.839
A combination of thoughts.
00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:41.600
And where do thoughts come from?
00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:44.399
Where do thoughts come from?
00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:51.439
It comes from words, it comes from images, it comes from emotions.
00:05:51.839 --> 00:05:52.399
All right.
00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:59.839
So, like if I say, like I said last time, if I say chicken, some of you thinking about fried chicken.
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:01.920
Some of you think about baked chicken.
00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:04.720
Some of you think about smoked chicken.
00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:09.040
Some of you think about chicken wings from the Chinese store.
00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:09.759
Why?
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?
00:07:22.399 --> 00:07:24.560
And you had what a negative thought.
00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:29.120
So emotions create thoughts, it created an angry thought.
00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:37.439
Sometimes we can have a happy thought, sometimes you can have a joyful thought, sometimes you can have a sorrowful thought.
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
--> 00:09:57.840
You must obey.
00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:00.159
You must submit.
00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:01.440
You must come under.
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:05.600
As the scripture says, right?
00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:13.279
But uh listen, in order to change your mind, okay, you got to change the way you think.
00:10:14.799 --> 00:10:20.879
You'll never consistently watch this, outperform your mindset.
00:10:22.320 --> 00:10:23.200
That's so good.
00:10:23.360 --> 00:10:24.320
That's heavy.
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:26.000
Glory to God.
00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:27.039
I wish I could hoop.
00:10:27.360 --> 00:10:28.879
I wish I could hoop right now.
00:10:29.039 --> 00:10:33.360
You'll never consistently outperform your mindset.
00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:36.080
You ain't gonna outperform it.
00:10:36.480 --> 00:10:40.080
That's why you gotta make sure you're putting the right thing in your mind.
00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:46.000
Okay, there's um what's his name?
00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:48.240
He I can't think of the name of the audio.
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:49.919
I think it's Earl Nightingale.
00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:51.279
You become what you think about.
00:10:51.840 --> 00:11:02.000
And he talked about how your mind is dirt, it's dirt, and you got to be planting the right things in your mind.
00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:11.440
Because if you're planting junk, the fruit that you're going to bear is poop, it is junk.
00:11:13.200 --> 00:11:13.759
Why?
00:11:13.919 --> 00:11:22.399
Because you've been feeding your mind, you've been planting the wrong seed in the dirt called mind.
00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:34.960
But if you're planting the right thing, if you're feeding your spirit with the word of God, you're feeding your spirit with personal self-development, you're feeding your spirit with knowledge, wisdom, and understanding, things for you to grow, you're gonna bear that fruit.
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:41.919
And if you want to transform your mind, you want to renew your mind, you got to make sure you're putting the right thing in your mind.
00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:46.000
You'll never consistently outperform your mindset.
00:11:47.039 --> 00:11:51.440
So, question is what is your mind set on?
00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:53.759
Hey, glory to God.
00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:55.840
What is it set on?
00:11:56.240 --> 00:12:01.679
Are you consistently growing your mind and consistently growing your mind?
00:12:02.240 --> 00:12:03.519
It's a work in progress.
00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:04.480
Watch this now.
00:12:04.559 --> 00:12:05.840
You never graduate.
00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:09.919
One of my favorite mentors, I've met him in person.
00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:11.919
We been I've been in a room with him.
00:12:12.080 --> 00:12:14.559
I'm eternally grateful for him.
00:12:14.960 --> 00:12:21.120
He's he's he's he's I call him the leadership guru, apart from the Lord Jesus Christ, right?
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 -->
00:14:56.879
I messed up so many times.
00:14:56.960 --> 00:15:00.080
I got tons of failures, but I don't see myself doing my failure.
00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:02.240
I see myself coming out of the failure.
00:15:02.399 --> 00:15:04.240
I see myself coming out of the pit.
00:15:04.399 --> 00:15:09.600
The acronym for pit is watch this, write this down, is a person and transition.
00:15:10.799 --> 00:15:18.799
So, in other words, when I'm in the pit, I'm not stuck in the pit, I'm just in transition.
00:15:19.200 --> 00:15:21.440
Ooh, I can preach that right now.
00:15:21.519 --> 00:15:22.799
My soul got a little happy.
00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:24.080
I'm talking heavy.
00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:27.519
Stop seeing yourself through failures.
00:15:27.840 --> 00:15:31.440
See yourself through God's purpose, see yourself from God's mind.
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:34.399
What does God say about you?
00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:36.639
What does God say about?
00:15:37.039 --> 00:15:41.600
He says you're the head and not the tail, the lender, not the borrow, above only and not beneath.
00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:46.240
He says you're blessed in the city, blessed in the field, blessed going out, blessed coming in.
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:48.559
He says, I have a purpose for you.
00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:51.039
I've called you, I've brought you out.
00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:55.440
So you got to see differently.
00:15:55.679 --> 00:16:03.120
So, in order for you to renew your mind, you got to see yourself as greatness.
00:16:04.000 --> 00:16:04.480
Why?
00:16:04.799 --> 00:16:06.960
Because greatness lives inside of you.
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:11.600
Great is he that is in me, and he that is in this world.
00:16:13.360 --> 00:16:15.039
Greatness lives inside of you.
00:16:15.120 --> 00:16:18.159
There are seeds of greatness inside of you.
00:16:20.399 --> 00:16:21.360
Watch this.
00:16:22.159 --> 00:16:29.279
You gotta also, in order for you to see yourself differently, you gotta have vision.
00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:40.240
Okay, what is the vision for your life?
00:16:40.559 --> 00:16:42.480
What is the vision for your family?
00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:45.600
Fathers, what is the vision for your family?
00:16:46.399 --> 00:16:48.399
What is the vision for your children?
00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:50.720
What is the vision for your lineage?
00:16:50.960 --> 00:16:53.200
What is the vision for your business?
00:16:53.440 --> 00:16:55.200
What is the vision for the week?
00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:57.120
What is the vision for the month?
00:16:57.279 --> 00:16:58.879
What is the vision for the year?
00:16:59.039 --> 00:17:00.720
What is the vision for your health?
00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:02.559
What is the vision for your wealth?
00:17:02.720 --> 00:17:04.640
What is the vision for your mind?
00:17:06.960 --> 00:17:08.880
Because vision, watch this.
00:17:09.680 --> 00:17:10.480
I'm feeling good.
00:17:10.559 --> 00:17:12.240
I'm getting happy in the studio.
00:17:12.480 --> 00:17:13.680
Glory to
God.
00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:16.559
Vision changes your behavior.
00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:18.640
Why?
00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:20.079
Because you know where you're going.
00:17:20.160 --> 00:17:20.880
You got what?
00:17:21.119 --> 00:17:21.839
Direction.
00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:23.440
Glory to God.
00:17:23.839 --> 00:17:27.839
I said vision changes your behavior.
00:17:28.319 --> 00:17:31.680
Because I got something to focus on.
00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:40.240
I'm focused on my future because I'm somewhere in the future and I look much better than I look right now.
00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:42.160
Glory to God.
00:17:43.680 --> 00:17:48.240
You must number three, you must believe differently.
00:17:49.680 --> 00:17:58.880
See, faith is the substance of things hoped for, and the evidence of things not seen.
00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:06.480
See, faith sees tomorrow before tomorrow arrives.
00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:07.920
Glory to God.
00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:09.359
I glory to God.
00:18:09.440 --> 00:18:10.640
I got to say that again.
00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:13.359
Faith sees tomorrow.
00:18:16.720 --> 00:18:19.279
Before tomorrow arrives.
00:18:19.759 --> 00:18:20.240
Why?
00:18:20.480 --> 00:18:22.000
Because I got vision.
00:18:23.119 --> 00:18:28.000
And then and and and and because I got vision, I got faith in the vision.
00:18:28.559 --> 00:18:34.319
Because faith constructs, faith helps you to believe.
00:18:35.839 --> 00:18:38.559
And all things are possible.
00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:39.839
Not some things.
00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:41.279
Mark 9 23.
00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:45.359
All things are possible if you believe.
00:18:46.400 --> 00:18:47.039
Do you believe?
00:18:47.200 --> 00:18:48.160
Do you believe in a vision?
00:18:48.319 --> 00:18:49.200
Do you believe in yourself?
00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:50.240
Do you believe in God?
00:18:50.400 --> 00:18:51.440
Do you have faith?
00:18:51.920 --> 00:18:52.720
He said all things.
00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:53.599
And you watch this.
00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:54.799
You ready for the secret?
00:18:55.599 --> 00:19:00.960
The secret is not some things, all things.
00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:04.720
But you have to believe.
00:19:05.039 --> 00:19:08.799
Because if you don't believe, guess what?
00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:10.559
Change is not possible.
00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:11.680
All right.
00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:15.359
If you don't believe change is not possible, and guess what happens?
00:19:15.440 --> 00:19:16.720
You're gonna quit early.
00:19:16.960 --> 00:19:25.279
You're gonna abort your mission, you're gonna abort your destiny, you're gonna abort the promise, you're gonna abort your business, you're gonna abort the goal.
00:19:25.680 --> 00:19:27.039
You're gonna quit.
00:19:28.079 --> 00:19:29.039
Look at your neighbor.
00:19:29.119 --> 00:19:29.759
I wish I was in church.
00:19:29.839 --> 00:19:32.160
I would have said, look at your neighbor and say, neighbor, I ain't quitting.
00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:32.720
I ain't quitting.
00:19:32.799 --> 00:19:33.359
I ain't quitting.
00:19:33.440 --> 00:19:34.240
I ain't quitting.
00:19:35.839 --> 00:19:42.319
See, transformation always require faith.
00:19:46.000 --> 00:19:47.200
I feel like preaching.
00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:48.160
Glory to God.
00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:53.680
I said transformation always require faith.
00:19:54.000 --> 00:19:55.599
It always requires faith.
00:19:56.000 --> 00:20:02.880
Because you got to see the potential, you got to have the gold as the end.
00:20:03.359 --> 00:20:04.319
Glory to God.
00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:07.519
And you got to believe that you can accomplish it.
00:20:08.799 --> 00:20:14.160
You must in the point number four, you must feel differently.
00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:17.839
How do you feel differently?
00:20:18.880 --> 00:20:21.680
You know, I'm gonna go Bible, I'm gonna go scripture.
00:20:21.759 --> 00:20:26.799
You know, I'm gonna just share some things and then I'll break down my points.
00:20:27.599 --> 00:20:31.359
Sometimes if you have a spirit of heaviness, you feel sorrowful.
00:20:31.599 --> 00:20:35.119
The Bible says if you have the spirit of heaviness, put on a garment of praise.
00:20:35.279 --> 00:20:37.920
So, in other words, start praising God, start worshiping.
00:20:39.119 --> 00:20:49.680
You know, uh uh um earlier, just earlier today, I was playing worship because my spirit man felt a little heavy because I got some big goals, some big things that I need to attack and accomplish.
00:20:49.839 --> 00:20:52.000
And I begin to I begin to worship God.
00:20:52.079 --> 00:20:59.839
I begin to to to to to to play some worship music and I began to sing and I began to praise him, and then I started praying.
00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:01.039
And what happened?
00:21:01.200 --> 00:21:09.759
My atmosphere shifted, my mood changed, my emotions got better, and my heart posture changed.
00:21:10.799 --> 00:21:11.680
And guess what?
00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:13.839
I start seeing things differently.
00:21:14.160 --> 00:21:17.839
My priorities changed, it affected my feelings.
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:21.680
And I I grabbed my wife, I said, Baby, we need to pray.
00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:35.759
We started praying and went from praying to asking God, and then we went from asking God, then we went to thanking God and give him a glory as if it's already done.
00:21:36.160 --> 00:21:41.759
Because I'm somewhere in the future, and I look much better than I look right now.
00:21:42.960 --> 00:21:53.759
And what was bothering me, I started seeing things differently, I started feeling differently, and I started believing that I can attack this and I can accomplish this because I got faith.
00:21:54.240 --> 00:21:59.759
You got to feel differently, your heart changes, your priority changes, you stop chasing.
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:01.440
Comfort.
00:22:03.519 --> 00:22:10.079
When you feel things different, when you start feeling things differently, you start changing, stop, you stop
chasing comfort.
00:22:11.759 --> 00:22:18.640
Because in order for you to grow, in order for you to renew your mind, in order for you to get to the next level, you got to get uncomfortable.
00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:20.400
You got to be stretched.
00:22:20.640 --> 00:22:27.279
You got to hang around people that stretches you, that make you feel uncomfortable.
00:22:27.920 --> 00:22:28.960
Watch this.
00:22:29.519 --> 00:22:33.680
I'm talking to a business owner right now or an entrepreneur leader.
00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:36.960
Your comfort zone is your broke zone.
00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:39.200
I'm talking heavy.
00:22:39.440 --> 00:22:43.839
I say your comfort zone is your broke zone.
00:22:44.640 --> 00:22:46.160
Stop chasing comfort.
00:22:46.400 --> 00:22:47.440
Stretch yourself.
00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:50.960
Put yourself in an environment that's going to stretch you.
00:22:51.039 --> 00:22:51.920
That's going to cause you to grow.
00:22:52.000 --> 00:22:53.440
That's going to cause you to think differently.
00:22:53.599 --> 00:22:56.000
Put yourself around different cultures.
00:22:57.599 --> 00:22:58.960
I just posted today.
00:22:59.119 --> 00:23:04.720
Today was, I don't even know if that's what they call it, but uh I told my wife, let's just open upload a whole bunch of pictures.
00:23:04.960 --> 00:23:07.119
I said it's flashback Friday.
00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:08.480
I think that's what they call it.
00:23:08.559 --> 00:23:09.200
Fashion flashback.
00:23:09.519 --> 00:23:11.519
I started posting all these pictures in Dubai.
00:23:11.759 --> 00:23:14.720
When I was in Dubai, I started seeing things differently.
00:23:15.680 --> 00:23:18.079
There's a whole nother level of money in Dubai.
00:23:18.319 --> 00:23:19.359
You know what I call that?
00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:21.680
I call that grown folk money.
00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:24.880
There's different levels of money.
00:23:25.039 --> 00:23:26.880
But I was being stretched.
00:23:27.039 --> 00:23:29.200
I had my I was around my mentors.
00:23:29.759 --> 00:23:31.119
And they were stretching me.
00:23:31.200 --> 00:23:35.599
They were causing me to see things from a different perspective.
00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:37.759
All right.
00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:44.960
And and and they they they were causing me to have a bigger goal.
00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:48.480
And letting me know that I can accomplish a bigger goal.
00:23:49.119 --> 00:23:54.640
So in order for you to feel differently, you got to stop chasing comfort, you got to start chasing purpose.
00:23:55.440 --> 00:23:56.640
And know this.
00:23:56.960 --> 00:23:57.920
Watch this.
00:23:59.440 --> 00:24:05.359
Transformation is not information, bars.
00:24:07.039 --> 00:24:08.079
Glory to God.
00:24:08.160 --> 00:24:13.759
I said, transformation is not information, it's revelation.
00:24:15.200 --> 00:24:16.240
Glory to God.
00:24:16.400 --> 00:24:22.640
I said, transformation isn't information, it's revelation.
00:24:24.559 --> 00:24:36.160
You
can get all the info, but the revelation is that you can be transformed, that you can become what God has called you to be.
00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:38.640
Point number five.
00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:41.359
You must live differently.
00:24:42.960 --> 00:24:47.119
See, scripture says faith without works is what?
00:24:47.440 --> 00:24:48.079
Dead.
00:24:50.160 --> 00:24:56.880
See, transformation, real transformation requires action.
00:24:57.440 --> 00:24:59.119
You got to take action.
00:25:00.240 --> 00:25:02.799
If you got a goal, take action.
00:25:03.039 --> 00:25:04.000
I was on TikTok.
00:25:04.079 --> 00:25:05.519
Sometimes I go live when I'm walking.
00:25:05.759 --> 00:25:07.200
Sometimes I'm live when I'm on.
00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:14.240
So follow me on TikTok, Instagram, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, like, subscribe, everything.
00:25:14.559 --> 00:25:17.119
But sometimes I go live on TikTok and I'm working out.
00:25:17.279 --> 00:25:19.519
Sometimes I'm in the gym and sometimes walking.
00:25:19.839 --> 00:25:24.640
And a young lady hopped on my live and she said, you know what?
00:25:24.720 --> 00:25:25.359
You're inspiring me.
00:25:25.440 --> 00:25:27.279
I've been watching you for quite some time now.
00:25:27.839 --> 00:25:29.200
And I need to start walking.
00:25:29.359 --> 00:25:30.319
You know what I told her?
00:25:30.559 --> 00:25:31.440
Start now.
00:25:32.240 --> 00:25:34.640
She said, I'm gonna wait till tomorrow or probably next week.
00:25:34.720 --> 00:25:35.519
I said, no.
00:25:36.079 --> 00:25:36.799
Start now.
00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:37.759
What are you doing?
00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:39.519
She told me she had free time.
00:25:39.599 --> 00:25:40.640
You know what I said?
00:25:41.519 --> 00:25:44.319
Get up and start now.
00:25:44.640 --> 00:25:45.359
Because why?
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:48.559
Success loves speed.
00:25:49.440 --> 00:25:50.640
Glory to God.
00:25:51.359 --> 00:25:55.519
And transformation always produces action.
00:25:55.680 --> 00:25:57.039
You got to start now.
00:25:57.839 --> 00:26:06.880
See, transformation, all right, doesn't require literally inspiration.
00:26:07.119 --> 00:26:10.000
Although you can be inspired, but it doesn't require inspiration.
00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:13.119
Transformation starts within the mind.
00:26:15.039 --> 00:26:15.359
Okay?
00:26:16.000 --> 00:26:17.599
It produces action.
00:26:18.880 --> 00:26:21.599
It produces your priorities.
00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:23.279
What is your priorities?
00:26:24.799 --> 00:26:29.920
Transformation is something that you have to practice daily.
00:26:30.079 --> 00:26:36.000
And in order for you to live live differently, your calendar got to line up.
00:26:36.720 --> 00:26:38.480
Your goals got to line up.
00:26:38.640 --> 00:26:40.160
Your habits got to line up.
00:26:40.319 --> 00:26:42.079
Your finances got to line up.
00:26:42.240 --> 00:26:44.079
Your relationships got to line up.
00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:46.160
You got to make sure you have that in check.
00:26:46.240 --> 00:26:48.559
You got to make sure that's in order.
00:26:51.119 --> 00:26:58.000
And as you begin to live differently, you start seeing the results.
00:27:05.839 --> 00:27:08.319
Remember, I'm talking about transformation from the inside out.
00:27:10.000 --> 00:27:13.759
I talked a lot about on the inside, but on the outside, watch this.
00:27:14.000 --> 00:27:15.119
Glory to God.
00:27:16.240 --> 00:27:20.400
Your life should transform others.
00:27:21.440 --> 00:27:31.359
See, Jesus didn't just talk, he changed lives.
00:27:32.720 --> 00:27:39.359
Not only that he changed lives, he created people that changed lives.
00:27:40.799 --> 00:27:57.440
So not only when you transform, glory to God, that you're changing other people's lives, but you're helping others to become leaders to develop others to change people's lives.
00:27:58.720 --> 00:28:00.000
Jesus made what?
00:28:00.319 --> 00:28:01.440
Disciples.
00:28:01.680 --> 00:28:11.200
And those disciples, those disciplined ones, because the root word for disciples is discipline, were able to do what Jesus was doing.
00:28:11.759 --> 00:28:18.880
But first they were transformed, they were impacted by the words of Jesus, the life of Jesus, the hand of God.
00:28:19.839 --> 00:28:23.279
Now they were able to go out and impact others.
00:28:24.319 --> 00:28:36.079
The greatest evidence that you've been transformed is that someone else begins changing because they watched your life.
00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:37.599
Mighty God.
00:28:55.920 --> 00:28:57.200
They believe God.
00:28:57.599 --> 00:28:59.039
They believe they can lose the weight.
00:28:59.200 --> 00:29:00.880
They believe they can start up a business.
00:29:01.039 --> 00:29:02.960
They believe that they can overcome.
00:29:04.960 --> 00:29:07.440
You know, I'm going to close out with this.
00:29:08.480 --> 00:29:12.640
Something to this this effect, this story.
00:29:13.839 --> 00:29:18.160
My bishop, the Lord's bishop, I'm going to have him on my next episode too.
00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:18.960
Y'all gonna be blessed.
00:29:19.119 --> 00:29:19.680
Tune in.
00:29:19.839 --> 00:29:23.599
It's gonna be fire, the one and only Bishop Rick Williams, senior.
00:29:23.680 --> 00:29:27.680
They call him the modern day Solomon.
00:29:28.960 --> 00:29:32.079
But we had something called the Manger Bus in our church.
00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:33.839
So what is the manger bus?
00:29:34.559 --> 00:29:36.640
So it's like a city bus.
00:29:37.440 --> 00:29:44.880
And um when it was very cold outside, I'm talking about like anything 32 degrees or lower, right?
00:29:45.839 --> 00:29:52.400
We will drive the manger bus in uptown Charlotte, downtown.
00:29:52.480 --> 00:29:55.599
All right, we call it uptown here in Charlotte, but most cities call it downtown.
00:29:55.759 --> 00:29:59.119
We would drive the major bus all around and pick up the homeless people.
00:29:59.359 --> 00:30:04.720
We would tell them to get in the bus so they can be warm, and then we would feed them hot soup and all the whole nine yards.
00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:07.440
It would be for the whole entire night.
00:30:07.599 --> 00:30:07.920
Okay?
00:30:08.160 --> 00:30:12.640
We pick them at night and they get released in the morning when temperatures got a little better, right?
00:30:12.799 --> 00:30:14.160
And that's what we called the major bus.
00:30:14.319 --> 00:30:15.039
It made the news.
00:30:15.119 --> 00:30:19.519
The mayor, um, the mayor congratulated the ministry and all that good stuff, right?
00:30:19.599 --> 00:30:20.079
Which phenomenal.
00:30:20.160 --> 00:30:20.720
We did great things.
00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:22.240
We give God all the praise, all the glory.
00:30:22.319 --> 00:30:23.839
And it was called the Major Bus.
00:30:24.640 --> 00:30:26.559
But a man got on the bus.
00:30:26.799 --> 00:30:27.359
Watch this.
00:30:27.519 --> 00:30:28.960
I'm saying this for a point.
00:30:29.759 --> 00:30:37.440
He said, The greatest sermon is not what I heard, but is what I saw.
00:30:38.720 --> 00:30:53.039
And I'm telling you guys that the greatest sermon you can preach is not what you verbally say, even though that could be effective, but it's by what you live.
00:30:53.279 --> 00:30:57.119
Live that transformed life, impact others.
00:30:57.680 --> 00:30:59.519
God is going to bless you.
00:31:00.319 --> 00:31:07.920
So we're not just talking here, we're having real conversations, real life conversations.
00:31:08.319 --> 00:31:09.440
Don't just talk.
00:31:10.880 --> 00:31:12.240
Talk heavy.
00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:14.319
