Speaker 1 (00:01):
Uh huh, I shall well, good morning everybody. Excuse me,
you're listening to the voice. Come on, dig me now,
one and only Steve Arvey 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,

(00:23):
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, I
don't know, uh you know, I don't. I don't. I

(00:47):
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. 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

(01:08):
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, um Oftentimes 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,

(01:29):
mister speak to you for a many year. 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
I get asked is about their future, about their place

(01:50):
in this world, about their mission, about what they're trying
to do, how they're trying to figure out, and then
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.

(02:10):
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's not
that's not necessarily the case. Because see, just like every
time you put your put your faith in a person

(02:31):
or an event or currens or some type of thing
that you imagine yourself being, and then that'll do it
for you. Imagine of all the people who've made it
without you know, I look at everybody telling, man, if
I could get on so and So's show, that will
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

(02:51):
people have made it without that? So see when you
start focusing in on what your idea of how to
make it is, and your idea of how to make
it does not include your relationship with God, you're spending
your wills. Man, it's a vicious cycle you're in now.
And I'm asking everybody to get out of that cycle,

(03:12):
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 planet that the that's a seed.
It needs watering, nurturing, fertilizing, and that's what it needs.
It didn't it. Don't ever say, Man, I need that

(03:34):
other person right there now. Now, People you will meet
that a 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're taken into your own hands and you

(03:56):
make the decision as to who 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. It needs your attention,
it needs your focus, it needs your faith, and it
needs your hard work. But it needs you to listen.

(04:17):
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 working for you.

(04:39):
You gotta 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 a
partner you ain't really all that they a partner, regardless
as to what people are seeing and stuff. You ain't happy,

(05:00):
Hey 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 Jake's say a couple
of things. Then I was watching TV. I heard Joel
Oldstein say a couple of things and I went wild, Man, Okay, cool,

(05:24):
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 on 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,

(05:45):
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 all not do it. Here's how
you know. It's God. And Bishop Olmer taught me this
in his book He's Got Oh I get get a
name of it right now. But it's a really good book.
But it says in there. Man. Bishop Alma was talking

(06:05):
in this book and he was saying, the way you
know is not God's voice. It's 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. I'm gonna get this person back.
You hurt me, I'm gonna hurt you. You know the

(06:26):
Lord don't like ugly. I'll show you well, the Lord
don't like ugly. But no way in that doesn't 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. Whoa
whoa ain't got nothing to do with God right there,

(06:47):
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
to you, and that's the only reason I'm doing And
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,

(07:09):
it has no sin in it. So you got to
be careful man, when you're talking to people and we're
gonna go down here and we're gonna do 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

(07:33):
is within you. It's all right there. 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 treat At the end of the day, somebody gonna
be right, somebody gonna be wrong. All right, y'all. We're

(07:53):
gonna havel going day tripping a little bit, going through
something
