Speaker 1 (00:00):
Come on, Uh huh, I sure will. Good morning, everybody.
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
(00:21):
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,
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. You know,
(00:44):
I don't know. Uh you know, I don't. I don't.
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. I'm not him, I'm not God.
I don't claim to be. I don't understand it all sometimes.
But God has an amazing way. But as long as
(01:05):
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 that's clearly what I need for you to do.
You know, oftentimes the thing that you're looking for, it's
right there inside of you. You know, I can't tell
(01:28):
you how many people I meet, mister Harvey. Mister Harvey,
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 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
(01:49):
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. See a lot of people burn
up a lot of time looking around trying to find someone.
(02:13):
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. That's
not necessarily the case, because see, just like every time
you put your put your faith in a person or
(02:33):
an event or currence or some type of thing that
you imagine yourself being in it, 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. 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
(02:54):
people have made it without that? So see when you
start focusing in on what you're idea of how to
make it is, and your idea of how to make
it does not include your relationship with God. You spinning
your wheels. Man, it's a vicious cycle you in now.
And I'm asking everybody to get out of that cycle,
(03:14):
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 dare. That's a seed.
It needs watering, nurturing, fertilizing. That's what it needs. It
didn't it. Don't ever say, Man, I need that other
(03:37):
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 you take it into your own hands and
(03:58):
you make the decision as to you got to get to,
You've just clouded and muddied 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
to listen. He needs you to listen more than anything. Listen,
(04:23):
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
working for you. You got to get some more God here, man,
(04:44):
listen to me. The answer was always within me. The
moment I sat down with myself and told myself the
truth that he partner you ain't really all that, hey, partner.
Regardless as of what people are say, seeing and stuff.
You ain't happy, Hey Pardner, this really ain't about you,
(05:05):
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 Oldstein say a couple of things and I went, wow, man, okay, cool,
(05:26):
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,
(05:47):
making you feel bad. It's sending 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 it's God. And Bishop Alma taught me this
in his book Got I can't think of the name
of it right now, but it's a really good book.
But it says in that man, Bishop Olmer was talking
(06:08):
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 hurt you. You
know the Lord don't like ugly. I'll show you well,
(06:31):
the Lord don't like ugly. But nowhere in that does
it's safe for you to go show them. It doesn't
say that. 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.
Who whah, whoah whah. 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
(06:56):
somebody come to me talking about the Lord told me
to do this to you, and that's the only reason
I'm doing it, you need to get yourself right with God.
I heard 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.
If we're gonna go down here and we're gonna do
(07:17):
this because this is the right thing to do, if
it has something wrong going on, then it can't be
the right thing to do. Took me a minute to
learn that one, But please get that through your head
so you can quit spinning yourself around and remember everything
you're looking for is within you. It's all right there.
(07:38):
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. Steve Harvey Morning
