Speaker 1 (00:00):
Uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody. You are
listening to the voice, Come on dig me now, one
and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay, here
we go. I was working out. I was talking to
a buddy of mine, and I was telling him something
(00:21):
that Bishop TD Jakes told me one time. I heard
him say it. He said, I would hate to die
and not do the thing that I was born to do.
I would hate to die and not do the theme
(00:43):
that I was born to do. Man, oh man, oh man, man.
That hit me like a like a like a pile
of bricks man, because it made me feel so grateful
that God has allowed me.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
To live my life this way now.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
And I'm talking about grateful for all of it, the good,
the bad, and the ugly, and I have had all
of them. The person you see today it ain't always
who I was. It was on the inside of me,
but it hadn't externalized itself, if that's a word. It
(01:24):
hadn't been bought out. It was in here, but it
was under development. Who I am today was a process.
But like I said before, don't trip. He ain't through
with me yet. Even today, I'm still an imperfect soldier.
(01:45):
For Christ today. I still fall short oftentimes, but I'll
tell you what, I'm ever grateful for the life I have.
And you know what, I want to encourage everybody today
to explore your possibilities. I mean, man, explore your possibilities.
(02:11):
Why would you not want to find out, discover, or
know what it is God got for you? Why would
you not want to achieve or accomplish all of your possibilities? Now,
as I ask you this question, I want you to
(02:32):
know that the devil is busy, that he plays mind tricks.
So as you hear this, I already know he's saying
to some of y'all, Yeah, Steve, that's easy for you
to say, But I didn'et got myself in this situation
right here. You ain't nothing too hard for God, nothing nothing.
(02:53):
And see, so as you listen to me, try to
get your mind open to this. Why would you not
want to explore all of your life's possibilities? What's possible
with your life? And I'm talking about from right where
you are right now. I'm not asking you to change,
(03:13):
I'm not asking you to do anything. I'm telling you
this is a fact that God can get you from
right where you are right now. Broken, misled, misguided, misunderstood, mistaken,
(03:34):
all of that, misfortunate, all of the missus you've been
talking about in your life.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
You know you.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
I missed the lottery, I missed my ride. They fired me.
I missed the deadline. I didn't get it. Miss people.
People people just miss theay self to death. If you've
been all in missus, God can get you from right
where you are. Home run hitter. I'm here to tell
you that he's a home run hitter. He's a put
(04:04):
him over the wall whenever he want to, all the time,
and you can be a recipient of some of these
home runs. He'll put the bat in your hand. But
you got to swing. Now, listen to me. You got
to stop feeling sorry for yourself. You got to stop
holding yourself down with beating yourself up. He won't hold
you down about it if you don't hold yourself down
(04:24):
about it. But I'm gonna tell you one more time.
The devil is busy. So what the devil do is
He make you think you ain't worthy. He make you
think that you've done something so despicable that you can't
come back from it. He makes you feel like you
so low you can't go up high. He knock you
down and make you feel like you've been knocked down
hard than anybody else.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
You can't get up.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
He rolled you so deep down in that ditch you
can't see over the edge. God can come get you
from no matter where you are. I'm telling you, man,
you ain't in no hold too deep for God. Magic
Johnson to tell you that.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Listen to me. You ain't in no hole too deep
for God.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Steve Harvey can tell you that you ain't in a
hole too deep for God. Tyler Perry can tell you that.
I can name you some people. Bishop Jake can tell
you that. I could tell you. Kenneth Olmah can tell
you that. Bishop Kenneth Omar I could tell you some people.
Kirk Franklin can tell you that. Donny Mcclerklin can tell
you that. I just know some people personally man that then.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Been in a hole.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Joel Oldstein can tell you about it. I know some
people man been down, been in a hole so deep.
I bet you Paula Dean can tell you about it. See,
but you know what, then here we go see see
see you know, see, we don't like to talk about
that because now we want everybody to pay extra hard
(05:46):
for some mistakes they made when clearly an excuse me
for being a new Christian. But there is a prayer
that I've been saying since I was a little bitty boy,
and it took me till I was a grown man
to understand it. Forgive us our truspasses as we forgive
those who trust passed against us. So see, it ain't
my job to hold nobody down, to keep my knee
(06:07):
on somebody's neck.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Who am I.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
I'm gonna need some forgiveness in a second here, probably today.
See So all this, you holding people down with the
way you feel, inviot them, And she shouldn't have said this,
and she'll never get it. I'll never support this again. Man,
get up, get up and get real.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
You're for real.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
You think you ain't finn need forgiveness real soon? You
ain't finna make a diabolical mistake in your life. You
don't think you are. I have thousands of them, probably
gonna make a few hundred more for I get up
out of here. So I've decided to be in a
forgiving business because I want God to forgive my trust
passes as I forgive those who trustpass against me.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
You understand. See excuse me for being a new Christian.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
I get tired of talking to people man supposed to
be saved and talking about dead Christians.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
I don't want that type of religion. I ain't in that,
no more. I ain't in that.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
You can call me wrong if you want to say
it how you want to say. I ain't in that,
no more. I ain't in all that. You can feel
how you want to feel about me. But I got
proof that God work in my life. You know, I
can't hardly get it out sometime when people ask me
something about depot on the inside of me, about my
soul and how I used to be, and my journey
and my trip because people don't know the trip I've
been on, or you may have been on one worse
(07:23):
than me. But you know what you ain't in a
whole too deep God can't get you out of. And
I wish I want people to remember that man. God
is a redeemer, He the great I am. So if
you ain't got nothing, now what you asking for? You
know you might not have nothing because you ain't asking
for nothing. Quit asking God to get you out of
debt and ask God for a life of abundance.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Then you take the money and you get out of debt.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
You keep asking to get out of debt, You keep
being in debt to get out of Come on, man,
what you asking God for?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
I'm just tripping today, that's all. I'm sorry. I apologize.
