Speaker 1 (00:00):
Today you all I want to encourage, but I want
to remind you of something. You have an opportunity to
make a decision that can alter the course of your life.
You you have an opportunity to make a decision that
(00:21):
can alter the course of your life. Okay, Steve, what
do you mean by that? I mean this, and this
is just a true fact. If you change your thought process,
if you change the way you look at things, if
you take every negative spin and put a positive spin
(00:43):
on it, if you start setting your dreams and goals,
if you start praying, if you start confiding in God,
if you form a relationship with your creator, you have
done the necessary things. You have made a decision that
can all to the course of your life.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
All you have to do is believe that it's so.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
That simple thing is so difficult for the average person
to even conceive for themselves. And why is that. I'll
tell you why. Because the devil is brilliant. Because the
devil uses all the tricks to persuade you to think
the opposite way.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
His only job is to rob you of your destiny.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
And if he can make you think that what I
just said is not possible for you, it is the beginning.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
But let's go back and look at it.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
If you look at all the success stories of most
honest people, they will tell you at some point I
believed it, I wanted it, and I worked for it.
But if you do not have the belief, we can
stop right there.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
If you don't believe.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Something is for you, if you don't believe in something
you want or aspire to, we can stop right there. Now,
think about it. Have you given up on the belief system?
Have you given up on believing in the things that
you used to want for yourself because in the delaying
(02:31):
of it happening, you perceive the delay as a denial.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
How many of.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
You are guilty of that. Let's just have a real
moment here now. How many of you have ever wanted
something really badly and you want it at a particular
time and it didn't happen, so you assumed because it
was delayed, it was denied. How many of you have
ever felt that way? I know I have, I know
the majority of people have. But that the way you
(03:01):
use your thought process, it proves that what I'm saying
is true, because the moment you change the way you think,
you change everything. Because it's delayed doesn't mean it's denied
because you don't believe something to be So it's the
(03:25):
very call of the possibility of it happened, And it
gets down to the real basis of what faith is.
Faith is the belief in things that you cannot see.
I don't need a lot of faith to walk to
the bathroom.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
I just don't.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
I just say, man, I got to go to the bathroom,
and I get up in a walk over there.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
It doesn't require faith for me.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
But if I decide to set up a goal that
to gain attention from my foundation or to get ain't
attention to a cause, and I make the announcement on Facebook,
Steve Harvey is going to walk from Atlanta, Georgia to Cleveland, Ohio.
A lot of people gonna get cameras out. I wanna
go see this hill because you know why, that ain't regular.
(04:16):
That ain't nothing I've ever done before. They ain't nothing
I con see. So that would require faith, wouldn't it.
It would It would require faith for a person to
say I'm gonna I'm gonna go survive some inclimate clement
weather for twenty one days, neked and afraid or whatever.
It requires some measure of faith. But if you watch
that show, a lot of people don't make it because
(04:37):
what they thought was gonna be easy is never that easy.
And then somewhere line that the majority of people don't
make it on that show.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
But listen to me.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Everything starts from the basis of your belief. Get back
to believing. I believe that gonna be the best year
of my life. I expect that. I am looking for it,
I am watchful for it. I'm paying close attention to
everything I'm saying to God so far because I have
(05:08):
claimed a victory for myself.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
If you've not done that, when stuff don't happen.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Your way, who you mad at you didn't put the
belief out there. I'm telling you, y'all, why would you
not try that? Why would you not give that a shot.
It's a simple exercise.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
In belief.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
It's a simple exercise in the law of attraction. It's
a simple exercise in faith. But you've got to attempt it.
All that gonna work.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
You know.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
I'm gonna tell you something. Somebody really really close to me.
I've been begging them to come to me and sit
down with a vision list because I tell everybody and
this person's really close to me, and they've yet to
come and sit with me. But they keep wandering around
aimlessly in their life. And I watch them time after
(06:02):
time after time, thing not go right, thing not go right,
and they keep telling me about it. And all I
said to them was come and sit with me with
your vision lists, your dream board. They still ain't made one. Well,
maybe if they would start believing that that system works,
maybe they could change something. Maybe they listening today, I
(06:22):
hope so, I hope you heard it. Those are my
clothesing remarks today. It starts with the belief. Y'all get
back to believe and have a great day. Talk to
God and love to hear from them.
