I deal with people who've had nervous breakdowns and become
despondent and noncommunicative. They're generally nice, nice people who always
do everything for everybody else. They're always there, they're always faithful,
they're always kind, they're always submissive, they're always pleasant.

They pass the coffee, they bake the bread, they do
everything they're.

That the faithful one has gotten weird. They expect me
to always be a bulwark of strength. They called me
whenever they get in trouble. The whole family is looking
for me, but they do not know that down inside,
I am tired and I have silent.
Speaker 7 (07:57):
Trustraech still to come on. The plotters touch.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Every procrastinating spirit, every putting it off spirit, every someday spirit,
every I'm not good enough spirit. You've hurt your problems
long enough. You've lived in your childhood long enough. It's
time for you to forget those things which are behind
(08:22):
you and reach to those things which are before you.

This is your year. You have no idea what I read.
Speaker 8 (08:33):
You can't take this until frustration. You've had enough.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Are you speaking to the people instead of speaking.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
To the rugs? Are you carrying your frustration.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
To the people you love when you are to be
speaking to the rug and feeding the people you love.
I thought I would be further than this by now.
I thought I would have my life together. Frustration comes
to what you thought. No more bruisings are necessary. It's
in the word. The water you need is in the word.
(09:06):
The first you have is in the word. The healing
is in the word. You don't have to go through changes,
you don't have to go through crucifixia. You don't have
to bleed for it. You don't have to work for it.
You don't have to sweat for it. All you got
to do is hear the word.

I am confused, I he says I. I've been with
you all of these yes, and yet you never killed
the fatted Care for.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
Where am I missing?
Speaker 3 (10:20):

Speaker 5 (10:22):
Where am I missing it? I've danced all over the
church and went home depressed.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
I've given, I'm fraid, I've labored, I've told, I've laid
before you. I am confused. They said name it and
claim it. They said, praise you, and it's done. They said,
waship you and it's over. I danced out of my shoes,
I broke my heel, and I still went home.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
I was abused in my house.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
I was tormented, I was rejected, I was ostracized, I
was criticized. And I'm standing here trying to be faithful.
I'm trying to do what you told me to do,
but I can't figure out why is this not working.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
I'm tired.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
I'm at the end of my rope. I can't even
get anybody to talk to. I've got the height like
it's all right, but I'm.

Side firstress, shor under or shy, silent.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
Firstres what am I doing wrong?
Speaker 3 (11:34):
And then the father comes out where he was his
whole life has turned around. He was in the house,
the younger brother was outside of the house. Now the
one who was on the outside is on the inside,
and the one who was on the inside was on
the isn is funny how things change. They have completely substituted.
(11:54):
They've changed places. And the father comes where he is.
Thank you Lord for coming where I am, not where
I pretend to be, not where I'm supposed to be,
(12:15):
not where they expect me to be.
Speaker 5 (12:17):
But thank you Lord for coming.
Speaker 1 (12:20):

Speaker 5 (12:21):
You know where I am. You know you know where
I am. You know you know where I am.
Speaker 1 (12:26):

Speaker 1 (12:29):
You know where.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
He tired and where he was.
Speaker 5 (12:37):
Addio sigh, Well, I feel the Holy goos under the
your sigh.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
He came.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
He came when I couldn't get to him. He tired
where I was. I couldn't pray out of it. I
couldn't dance out of it.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
But bless God, he.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Son, you've been with me all of these years. Your
problem is not with your performance. You've been here, You've
done what you were supposed to do. But your problem
is in this one thing. You have failed to understand
(13:23):
that all that I have is time.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
Hold it, wait a minute.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Listen.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
You could have been blessed long time ago while you
were going through form and fashion. You fail to have
faith and to recognize that it is not enough to
perform as if you were on stage but a woman.
(14:02):
If you believe on me, that's a scripture self said,
then how up your bellingad So flow rivers, say here
(14:22):
with somebody and tell them something about to happen in
your life.
Speaker 5 (14:28):
You've been feeling that you've been knowing you down in
your spirit.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
You didn't know when you didn't know how. Something just
kept telling you. Something is about dipping. Something is about
don't die, don't quit, don't collapse, don't fink, don't call in,
don't lose, don't break, don't go by something that God
tapped you alive.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
For a reason.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
God tapped you around for a proper Something about.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
It reminds me.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
It reminds me of what.
Speaker 5 (15:07):
God said to Cain.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
You remember when Cain was upset over able sacrifice and
Kin was.
Speaker 5 (15:15):
Roughed because God had.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Blessed his brother.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
And God was confused by his reaction and asked a question.
He says, Kin, why hast thy countenance fallen? If thou
doest not well, will I.
Speaker 5 (15:35):
Not receive you?
Speaker 3 (15:37):
You know what God was telling Cain. I am no
respect to a person's but I am a respect of principles.
If you do what he did, you can have what
he got. Touch a neighbor saying, no need of you
(15:58):
being jealous of me. If you do what I did,
you can get what I got. Come on and give
in some breathing. Here I feel something, I feel something
about to break.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
I feel I feel, I feel I feel.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Something breaking, I feel something breaking.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
God or bless you. Ain't no need of you talking
about me, God or bless you. Ain't no need of
you sitting up getting bitter and losing your joy, losing
your annoying, losing your peace. God or bless you, ain't
no need of you getting in no spiritual run.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
This ain't no time to die, to live. Drops it out, blest,
not not now. I'll bless you God, realiend rellienden.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
God didn't take you through everything he took you through
to leave you now that you're here. But there he
is the blessing that the Holy Gird said a promise
that he's about to bring the pass in your life sake.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Somebody by the hand and looked him in the eye
and said, neighbor.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
God said, get ready, get ready to get ready, to
get ready, get ready, get ready, get ready, get ready,
get ready, get.
Speaker 9 (17:31):
Ready in.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
The real, real, real.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
Bad.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
I'm gonna go over in the Innimate's camp and I'm
gonna take back what he stole from me.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
I'm tired, I'm being depressed, I'm tired, I'm feeling sorry
for the cellar.
Speaker 6 (19:39):
I'm tired.
Speaker 9 (19:40):
I'm tell you, we're walking around.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
With solid frustration. I feel like it's my time.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
For my year.
Speaker 5 (20:21):
It's not enough to.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
Be a nice person. I'm gonna have to go after
the things of God. There's some businesses in here God
wants to release. There's some financial opportunities he wants to release.
(20:44):
There's some things he put in your spirit. It would
sound crazy to anybody else, but you have a precious promise.
And God said, once I promise you, I was gonna
do it. Cleanse yourself, not just of the filthiness of
your flesh, but the filthiness of your spirit. Every procrastinating spirit,
(21:10):
every putting it off spirit, every something day spirit, every
I'm not good enough spirit. You've hurt your problems long enough.
You've lived in your childhood long enough. It's time for
you to forget those things which are behind you and
reach to those things which are before you.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
This is your yeah, the thing.
Speaker 3 (21:52):
That you've been dreaming about. God wants to bring it
to pass for you this year. He said, son, I
don't know what you're upset about. I don't understand what
you're frustrated about.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
All that I have is done.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
One place in scripture, Jesus said, asked, and it shall
be given. Seek and you shall find. Knock, and the
doors shall be open under you. I don't care how
good you live. If you don't ask, and you don't seat,
and you don't knock, ain't nothing going to happen in
(22:34):
your life.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
We're coming right back right after this.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
You have no idea what I read.
Speaker 8 (22:43):
I can't take this anymo tell frustration you've had enough?
Speaker 3 (22:46):
Are you speaking to the people instead of speaking to
the rocks? Are you carrying your frustration to the people
you love when you are to be speaking to the
rock and feeding people you love.
Speaker 5 (23:03):
I thought I would be further than this by now.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
I thought I would have my life together.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Frustration comes to what you thought.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
No more bruisings are necessary. It's in the word. The
water you need is in the word. The thirst you
have is in the word. The healing is in the word.
You don't have to go through changes. You don't have
to go through CRUCIFIXI. You don't have to bleed for it.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
You don't have to work for it. You don't have
to sweat for it.
Speaker 8 (23:28):

However, when your gift is one hundred and seventy dollars
and more, we will add this unique amplified topical reference
Bible to the Crossroads DVD and the Blessing of Grace
Promise cards.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
I lifted up and it looked down.
Speaker 8 (24:44):
Mama's in one room, you were in another room, yelling
at God.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
I think that it is the brevity of life itself
that makes every second so important. And I think that
heaven is for real. Not only reminds us about heaven,
but it reminds us about earth as well. That whatever
you want to say to someone, you should say it now,
And when you love someone, you should love them now,
because so many times we bury inside of ourselves things
(25:10):
we would like to say, thinking we'll have another day.
And I have learned from personal experience that tomorrow has
not promised you.
Speaker 7 (25:17):
We need to get him surgery, bread away the pain
that I suffered watching my son how close to death.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
We're in trouble here.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
He's much worse. You call some friends and pray for him.
Speaker 8 (25:30):
The hospital staff said that your son was not expected
to survive.
Speaker 7 (25:33):
He used the word miracle.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Your son had a near death experience.
Speaker 5 (25:36):
He saw things that I can't really explain.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Trying to be consistent, squeeze at hand, silent frustration. Lord,
(26:11):
I've been doing the right thing and it don't seem
to be working. The Devil's been laughing at me and
telling me that living right don't work. Now, I understand
it's not enough to live right. I gotta act right.
(26:32):
I gotta start moving on my vision, working toward my goal.
Squeeze that hand, Lord, I need you to cleanse me
of the filthiness in my spirit, the emptiness in my heart,
(26:55):
the unworthiness I feel, the guilt, the fear of failure,
the fear of rejection.
Speaker 5 (27:07):
Lord, don't let my childhood get in my way.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Touch me.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
The funny thing is that when I first started blogging,
I was silently frustrated on the inside. I didn't think
that anyone understood what I was going through. And then
the more people commented, the more people shared those feelings,
I realized that I wasn't alone, and if God had
done it for them, then maybe he would do it
for me too. I don't know if this message is
(27:36):
for you or for someone you know, but take a
moment and recognize that God is in the midst of
it all, your silent frustrations, your loud frustrations, your hope,
your fear, your doubt. God is there with us all.
I pray you'll remember that and take it with you
everywhere you go, every moment, every day. Remember that God
is in the mist. No matter how frustrated you feel,
(27:59):
no matter how how lone you feel, someone's been where
you've been. Thank you so much to our partners, the
Bishop's Circle and Aaron's Army for standing with us in
the gap. We appreciate you allowing this program to reach
millions of lives and serve as a reminder to them
that God is with us all. Please join us here
