Speaker 1 (00:32):
To turn the mouth turn, got to turn the mouth
turn al the morning. Come come on you uh huh,
(00:53):
I sure will. Good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice,
come on, dig me down one and only Steve got
a radio show. Man, oh man, oh man, God being
good to me. Man. I can't explain it all really, Hey,
you know, I want I want to remind everybody of
something that I need reminding of myself all the time.
(01:17):
And I'm dealing with a couple of things now and
I had to remind myself. Uh, you know what I
have to remember. I have to constantly remind myself to
stay in constant communication with God. Constant communication with God.
You know sometimes you know, I have a tendency and
(01:37):
maybe we do all this people I don't know, but
I know for me that when it's going okay, I
slack up in sometimes having conversations with Him because I'm
not coming to him on a daily with something that's
pressing or something, and I find myself slacking up in
the communication. The danger I have learned in that is this,
(02:00):
I think, you know. I mean, we've all heard old
people say, you know, you got to stay prayed up,
you know, and you know, prayed up means you know
you got some store it up. You just got an
abundance of them where you're putting it in. Because what
happens is is when you're not in constant communication with God,
when you're not constantly praying, doing those good times, that
(02:25):
allows for the enemy to slip in and do the
little things that can be upsetting. And then the next thing,
you know what, you get several little things in a row.
Now you got an issue you're dealing with. You know,
I have to remind myself when it's going like that, Man,
Have I really been praying though? Have I really been
(02:45):
in constant communication with God? Because you know, that helps
God against that little bitty stuff coming in. Sometimes it's
big stuff, sometimes it's major stuff. But I've noticed, man,
that when I get on a more smooth plane in life,
I have a tendency to slack up in that department.
And that ain't the time to slack up. I'm really
(03:09):
learning that I have to stay in constant communication with
God because it enables me to ward off those little
things coming up that can get in the way. And
so I just wanted to make you aware of that
as I'm learning it myself that staying prayed up is
important that you try to stop prayers, you know, you
(03:31):
try to you know, have some prayers in the bank,
so to speak, and just constant communication with him because
it'll just safeguard you against a lot of stuff back
doing you. You know, I just wanted to make sure
you understood that because on your journey, it's gonna be
many obstacles. I've said this one hundred times on the show.
The road to success is always under construction. I say
(03:53):
that all the time, and it's to let you understand
that it's not going to be easy, but we can
make it more difficult than it has to be, you know,
when you go out strike out on the journey. You know,
let's say I got in my car. Let's say I'm
in New York and I get in my car and
(04:15):
I say I'm going to LA. I know, if I
drive west and continue to drive west, eventually I should
get to California, or I may wind up in Portland
or Seattle or something like that. But if I drive west,
I'm gonna eventually get to the West Coast. Now wouldn't
(04:40):
it be smarter though, if I mapped out the route
which saved me a bunch of driving I don't need
and figuring that I don't have to calculate when you
know the way to go. You know, if you know
you want to cut cross on the twenty, or you
(05:02):
want to cut cross on the seventy, or you want
to cut cross on the tin, you know, you got
to devise a route. Now, if I want to go
visit some people I know, then I know I got
the I need to go down. You know, I might
go through Ohio, come down on the eighty, then get
on seventy one and take that all the way down
to the ten and then ride across. So I might
(05:24):
take it to the twenty, cut through Texas and then
and then let it link back up on the ten.
I know a lot of different ways, but guess what
the best way is to map it out. You can
go anywhere, but if you go with a map, it's
more precise. You save yourself a lot of time. And
that's what prayer has taught me that when I will
(05:47):
entify continuously, pray that I stay in the in the
in the I stay in the prepared mode. I have
more idea of where I'm going. I'm more secure with
my route. If you just take off heading west, Yeah,
you'll eventually get to the west coast if you out east.
But guess what though, had you mapped it out, you
(06:08):
can see when you veering off, you may stop, come
out and not be paying attention. Next thing, you know,
you're on a route and you go on another way.
You're going north when you could easily still be going west.
You've got to constantly be aware of that. And I'm
just pointing that out to you because I know that
on your journey a lot of times you get sidetracked.
And part of the ways we get sidetracked is we
(06:30):
lose out on that very the very beneficial resource of prayer.
We lose out our connection with God gets strained. The
thicker you can keep the cord connected to God. If
you thin out your communication with God, and instead of
having a big thick cable, now you're dealing with a
(06:51):
little thread. You know, a cable is stronger than thread,
and so it just decreases your opportunity. And so you know,
I wanted to just make you aware of that, and
you know, to ever be encouraged and to say to
everybody out there and just keep your head up. It
is going to be dark days for you. There are
(07:11):
going to be situations where it's going to be daunting
and hard to face. But man o, man oh man,
everybody has to face these challenges. Everybody get dark sometimes.
You know, Look, if you didn't lose, if you didn't lose,
you wouldn't even appreciate winning because if it all went
(07:32):
your weight all the time. Do you know how complacent
and content and how easy life would be if it
just went your way all the time. So when it
kept going your way, you wouldn't even appreciate it because
guess what, it's been going this way the whole time.
So what life does is it has its checks and balances.
(07:53):
These hard times are coming, and you need the hard
times to appreciate the good times. You need the clouds
and you need to rain to appreciate the sun and
the flowers. It's just when it comes to prayer, though,
just stay prayed up, stay constant with it, because the
(08:14):
challenges of life are coming, whether you prayed up or not,
they're coming. Understand that you could pray every day all day.
When you get through praying every day all day, something's
gonna happen to you. That's gonna be challenging. Now. I
would rather have been in communication with God on a
regular than wait till every time something pop off to
(08:35):
have to go to and reintroduce myself. Okay, it was
over a little around the board with it today, but
that's how it came to me, so that is I
ain't mad at it. Y'all have a great day. We're
gonna have a good one the day. Let's go. You're
listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.
To turn the mouth turn, got to turn the mouth
