Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, Steve, here we are last break of the day.
Time for your closing remarks.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Surely sent me something and it got me to thinking,
I'm gonna share with you what she sent me, but
I'm gonna paraphrase it, so it's more of how I talk,
because sometimes I get a little stumbled up and it
doesn't sound like me if I try to share directly
with somebody with somebody sent me.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
So I just want to talk to you about it.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
I want to just talk to you about this life
of abundance that we are all qualified for. I want
to talk to you about the life of abundance that
God really wants all of us to enjoy. If you're
a righteous person, God will give you a life of abundance.
I didn't say if you were a save person, if
(00:49):
you are a member of this denomination, if you go
to this.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Church, if this is your pastor if this is your faith.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
I'm telling you that God has a life of abundance
for you if you put your trust and your faith
in Him. I'm just telling you, and you have to
understand that God has equipped you to have this life
(01:22):
of abundance. All of you have a gift that was
given to you by God at birth. Everyone has one.
Now you may not know what it is, but you
have it. But because you've been so bent, so determined
to do something to please somebody else, your mother wants
(01:44):
you to go to school and get a degree in
this well. I told him I was gonna come down
here and get a degree in that. So now I'm
gonna go get a degree in that well. My father
went to the army, so I'm going to the army.
There's nothing wrong with the army. There's nothing wrong with
going to the army. But if that ain't really what
you were created for, you fit to waste a lot
(02:04):
of time. Man, you really really are because God really
did equip you for a life of abundance. When he
created you, he had a mission in mind for you.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Got a mission in mind for me. He gave you
a gift.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Your gift is a thing that you do the absolute
best with the least amount of effort. If you identify
that gift, there's your greatest chance.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Now here's the deal.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
When He prepared you for this life of abundance, and
he gave you everything you needed to put on every
day and go out and make your dreams and your
life come true.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
If you put if you.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Become passionate about your gift, you can be on your
way to making your life happening and your dreams come true.
He gives you everything you need to wear to go
out and fight it. But what we do is we
see suit up, We suit up, and we settle in.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Well, I got this job now, well, a lot of.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Our four years await from getting this another degree, I
might as well go here. Well I got a promotion,
now I might as well stay on here. Well, a
lot of star already start invested in my four oh
one K. So you suit up, but you settle in,
and then you know what you do. What we often do,
and I did it myself for a while, we resign
(03:31):
ourselves to living a mediocre life because we won't suit
up and go out here and do what God want
us to do.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
So here's what I'm saying to you.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
If God then gave you all the scuba gear equipment
you need, he'd have gave you the ad tanks, the mask,
the flippers, the nozzles, the hoses or a supply. Don't
put all this stuff up on and then head to
the bath tub. What you're doing you're settling in. Head
(04:11):
out to the ocean. Get out in that ocean of opportunity.
Get out there where in some of that deep water.
Go out there where God has equipped you to go.
He done suited you up.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
He gave you everything you need.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
But we want to go get in the bathtub where
it's safe. Look, man, all of you have the gear
to win, the gear to have an abundant life, the
gear to be prosperous, the gear to be happy. You
have the gear. You've got to get out. You got
(04:47):
to get out that bath tub and go out there
in that ocean, out in that deep water, because out
in the ocean is the opportunity.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Ain't no opportunities in the bathtub.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
You got to go out, say in that ocean of
opportunity and experience all that God got for you.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Some of it.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
You gonna get tested. You're gonna feel like you're going down.
You're gonna get a sinking feeling. But you're gonna be fine.
You know why, because you got to give. You have
what it takes you got to give. It's up to
you to jump in. If you don't ever jump in
the ocean, you ain't gonna really know if you can
(05:26):
handle deep water or not. I got you scared of
the deep water. I got some time. That deep water
look rough out there. I know you've seen some purpose
people try to acquire fame and prosperity and happiness and
go out on their own. And I know you've seen
them out there sinking and the water look rough. So
now you wanna stay over here in the bathtub. Ain't
(05:47):
no opportunities in the bathtub. All your opportunities out there
in the ocean. There's it's some sharks out there, yeah,
some barracouda out there.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Yeah man, Yeah, yeah, some where out there. Yeah. Yeah,
all that's out. But what's to say you won't be one.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Get out the bathtub with all this gill God and
gave you, and jump in that ocean out there and
swim like you're supposed to swim around. You're gonna get
the life of your dream, a life of abundance. That's
all I got to say. Thank you very much. Hope
you got it, drop the dog, drop it.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Yeah you still got it. Thanks, thank you. Yeah, So
y'all have.
