Good morning everybody.

Speaker 4 (02:05):
Excuse me, you are listening to the voice Come on,
dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a
radio show. Man o man o man something going on
real good today. You ought to feel blessed today. The
fact that God woke you up and gave you another opportunity.
You know, every day you wake up, it's another chance.
It's a chance for all of us to get better,

(02:27):
to get it right, to get on the right path,
to stop heading the wrong way. Every day you wake up,
that's your opportunity. See, because he's gonna keep waking you
up because he has a plan for you.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
You know, I don't know, uh you know, I don't.
I don't.

Speaker 4 (02:47):
I don't know when he makes his call and you
know who gets called home when I can't explain it,
I don't have that answer.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
I'm not him, I'm not God. I don't claim to be.

Speaker 4 (02:57):
I don't. I don't understand it all sometimes, but God
has an amazing way. But as long as he's waking
you up, I do know this. God ain't through with
you yet. God has a plan for you. Your job
is to identify identify the plan. You know, that's clearly
what I need for you to do. You know, oftentimes

(03:19):
the thing that you're looking for, it's right there inside
of you. You know. I can't tell you how many
people I meet. Mister Harvey, mister Harvick, can't speak to
you for a minute. Yeah, man, what's up with you? Man?
I was just wondering. Man, I've been trying to and
I want to know, man, can you give me a
good agent? Can you give me a good lawyer? Can

(03:40):
you give me a good Now? Look, if you got
some legal problems, I understand you're gonna need some help
right there. But the majority of questions I get asked
is about their future, about their place in this world,
about their mission, about what they're trying to do, how
they trying to figure out. And then the how to
go about doing it. But the answer I must remind
all of you is always within yourself. It starts right there.

(04:04):
See a lot of people burn up a lot of
time looking around trying to find someone. If I could
just meet them, if I could just get on her show. Man,
if all, if I could just get to his show,
I beating made it.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
That's not necessarily the case.

Speaker 4 (04:25):
Because See, just like every time you put your put
your faith in a person or an event or currence
or some type of thing that you imagine yourself being
in there and that'll do it for you. Imagine of
all the people who've made it without you know, I
look at everybody. Tell me, Man, if I could get
on so and so show, that'll do it for me. Man,

(04:46):
somebody else got on that show and they blew up. Man,
if I could just make it to that show, do
you know how many people have made it without that? So, see,
when you start focusing in on what your idea of
how to make it is, your idea of how to
make it does not include your relationship with God.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
You spinning your wheels.

Speaker 4 (05:06):
Man, It's a vicious cycle you in now, and I'm
asking everybody to get out of that cycle, get out
of looking for someone and something. The answer is within you.
God resides in you. That burning thing that you have
that you just can't get out your head. That's a seed.
God plant that day. That's a seed. It needs watering, nurturing, fertilizing,

(05:29):
and that's what it needs.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
It didn't it.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
Don't ever say, man, I need that other person right
there now. There are people you will meet that will
compliment you, and I can assure you that God will
put you in the right place at the right time.
I'm almost certain that God will introduce you to everybody
you need to be introduced to to make it to
wherever it is. You all are trying to get to
him talking about you and God now. But the moment

(05:54):
you take it into your own hands and you make
the decision as to who you got to get to,
You've just cloud and muddy the waters. See God's plan
for you don't really need your help. Oh, it needs
your attention, it needs your focus, it needs your faith,
and it needs your hard work. But He needs you

(06:15):
to listen. He needs you to listen more than anything. Listen,
keep the faith and be willing to work your tail off.
I don't know how you think it can happen any
other way, But then again I do because I try
to make it another way. So I had to come
to the conclusion, Hey man, listen here, dog, this ain't

(06:38):
working for you. You got to get some more God here, man,
listen to me. The answer was always within me, the
moment I sat down with myself and told myself the
truth that hein partner. You ain't really all that. They
ain't partner. Regardless as to what people are seeing and stuff.

(06:58):
You ain't happy, Pardner. This really ain't about you. Hey, Pardner,
you really ain't all that good at this. God is
keeping you for a reason. Okay, hold up, Steve, quit tripping.
What I need to do. I just started talking to
myself and then I heard Bishop Jakes say a couple
of things. Then I was watching TV. I heard Joel

(07:19):
Oldstein say a.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
Couple of things and I went, wow, man.

Speaker 4 (07:23):
Okay, cool, that's pretty slick. I'm gonna try that. And
when I did it, it changed my life. I am
telling you, man, it has been God this whole time,
and the God has been residing inside of me, just
like the God resides on the inside of you. That's
him talking to you, telling you, man, you ought to
get it together. Man, making you feel bad. It's sending

(07:46):
you on guilt trips, you knowing you wrong and you
out there wrong and something telling you you are not
do it. Here's how you know.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
It's God.

Speaker 4 (07:54):
And Bishop Alma taught me this in his book He's
Got I can't think of it that it right now, but.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
It's a really good book. But it says in that man.

Speaker 4 (08:04):
Bishop Olmer was talking in this book and he was saying,
the way you know is not God's voice is if
it ain't no sin in it. See how many times
have you made up in your mind, I'm gonna show
this person or I'm gonna show that person, or I'm
gonna get this person back. You hurt me, I'm gonna

(08:24):
hurt you. You know the Lord don't like ugly. I'll
show you well, the Lord don't like ugly. But no
way in that does it's.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
Safe for you to go show them. It doesn't say that.

Speaker 4 (08:36):
See, so when you strike out on that mission, you
know the God knows in my heart I loved you,
but I got to do this because you did me. Whoa, whoa,
whoa ain't got nothing to do with God right there,
you can take him out of it. If it's God,
has no sin in it. So anytime somebody come to
me talking about the Lord told me to do this

(08:57):
to you, and that's the only reason I'm doing it,
to get yourself right with God. I had all them
threats right there. That ain't God talking to me through you.
What are you crazy? If it's God, it has no
sin in it. So you got to be careful man
when you talking to people. And we're gonna go down
here and we're gonna do this because this is.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
The right thing to do.

Speaker 4 (09:17):
If it has something wrong going on, then it can't
be the right thing to do. It took me a
minute to learn that one. But please get that through
your head so you can quit spending yourself around and
remember everything.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
You're looking for is within you. It's all right there.

Speaker 4 (09:36):
Quit wasting your time looking around all the time. Go
to your God, man, talk to him. Go to that
spirit that's on the inside of you that's calling you.
Stop letting people shake your tree. At the end of
the day, somebody gonna be right, somebody gonna be wrong.
All right, y'all, we're gonna have to go on day
tripping a little bit going through something show
