The Holy Spirit is over the gifts.
0:02
He picks out the gift He wants
0:04
each of us to have, and the
0:07
gift He gives us is for the
0:09
benefit of all. Welcome
0:18
to Conversations with John and Lisa
0:20
Baveer. And John, this is
0:22
going to be a part two, because we
0:24
did not get through it in the one part.
0:26
Actually, it could be four parts, but it's this part
0:28
two. Hopefully, we'll get through it today. Just
0:31
see where the Holy Spirit leads us today.
0:33
So we're really actually happy that you can
0:35
join us. We've been talking about the gifts
0:37
of the Holy Spirit, and
0:39
we got through, I think, 3.1 of
0:41
them. That was it, and there's more
0:43
than three. Well,
0:45
it kind of felt like there was that many of them.
0:47
So we really want to
0:49
encourage you to rate, review, scribe. If
0:52
you do that, it helps us help
0:54
you. We find out what you want
0:56
to hear about. And actually, John, this
0:58
is why we're recording this. People said
1:00
we want more information about it. And
1:03
if you actually write a review, you
1:05
might get read. This is LJ Min.
1:07
LJ Min, it sounds like a rapper.
1:10
Great teaching, such great
1:12
people of God. I give five stars to
1:14
all your books. Wow. They
1:17
know God and how to speak in a
1:19
way that benefits others. God bless you both
1:21
and your family. That is kind. That is
1:23
very kind. Possibly
1:25
not even accurate, but very, very
1:28
kind. Okay, so John, I'm
1:30
going to do a little bit of a recap for
1:32
people that are just joining us right now. We talked
1:34
about there's two groups of people, and I'm going to
1:36
actually abbreviate
1:38
those terms. People that
1:41
believe that the gifts of
1:43
the Holy Spirit stopped. They're like,
1:45
we believe they stopped, that they
1:47
were something for establishing the church,
1:49
the early church only, and
1:52
that the perfect has come and the perfect
1:54
is the word of God. And just to
1:57
underscore, John, I do believe that the word
1:59
of God is perfect, but
2:01
we don't believe it is the perfect
2:03
that is referred to. And so if
2:06
you want to know more about that... And that's in the
2:08
Scripture. Yeah, listen to the first one, but I just want
2:10
to reiterate it. In 1 Corinthians 13,
2:12
Paul said, when that we know
2:14
in part we prophesy in part, when that which
2:17
is perfect is come, that which is part, the
2:19
gifts of the Spirit will be done away with.
2:21
However, he goes on to say, he identifies
2:24
when the perfect is. Perfect is
2:26
when we will see him face-to-face and
2:28
we will know Jesus as he knows
2:31
us. That hasn't happened yet. So the
2:33
perfect is not yet come, which means
2:35
the gifts of the Spirit are still
2:37
very valid because Paul... Yeah, but because
2:41
Paul opens this whole thing by
2:43
saying, hey, you used to follow
2:45
mute idols, idols that
2:48
didn't speak. Our God is living.
2:50
We have a personal relationship with
2:52
him. So the gifts of the Spirit
2:54
are very much valid today. So we believe
2:56
that you believe the
2:58
Bible, every word of it, that you
3:00
live in accordance with the Scriptures, but
3:03
that God is still speaking. Which is the
3:05
second group, which is people that believe that
3:08
God's Spirit is still active,
3:10
it's still continuing, it's working
3:12
in the body. He is still
3:14
active. Okay, yes, he is
3:16
still active. The Holy Spirit is still
3:18
active. The Holy Spirit is still working
3:20
in and through the church. There's a
3:22
reason I said that. No, I get it.
3:25
I actually had a pastor walk up to
3:27
me this weekend in California. He said the
3:29
statement that changed my life and ministry was
3:32
the fact you said the Holy Spirit is a person
3:34
not in it. Yes, and we say
3:36
a person, like not a human, but
3:39
a is a person out like a
3:41
third part of the Trinity,
3:44
like Jesus is a person. And I want
3:46
to... This is really important to what we're talking
3:48
about, but didn't he descend
3:50
on Jesus like a dove? Okay, you can
3:52
say that somebody runs like the wind. That
3:54
doesn't make him the wind. I could punch
3:56
you like a box. You can say somebody's
3:59
strung like an ox. doesn't make them four-footed
4:01
because you do this all the time.
4:04
However, the Holy Spirit is a person.
4:06
He has thoughts, he has feelings, he
4:08
speaks, so he is the third
4:11
person of Godhead. And so when
4:13
I hear people refer
4:15
to the Holy Spirit as it, I
4:18
cringe because it's okay. Actually, I believe
4:20
it was a God moment because it
4:22
gives us the opportunity to say to
4:24
everybody, he is a person and he
4:26
speaks. If you look,
4:28
I remember Lisa, I was
4:30
going through the book of Acts on a fast and I
4:33
remember I was so like
4:35
the book of Acts, I just read it
4:38
like last month and yet I felt like
4:40
I was supposed to read the book of
4:42
Acts on this fast. And the whole time
4:44
I kept noticing how the apostles depended on,
4:46
relied on the Holy Spirit.
4:48
I mean Paul made statements like, hey,
4:51
all I know is the Holy Spirit and I
4:53
have been talking about this. There's chains and tribulations
4:55
that wait me every city. Then you
4:57
got the leaders writing, it seemed good to us
5:00
and the Holy Spirit. And this was jumping up
5:02
off the pages all over the book of Acts
5:04
and I'm realizing, wow, we
5:07
have a church today in America.
5:10
We don't interact with the Holy Spirit and
5:13
that's what Paul is talking about. He's not
5:15
a mute idol. He's not like
5:17
what we use those Gentiles
5:19
used to serve. He wants
5:21
a personal relationship and Lisa,
5:23
he's the only person of the
5:26
Godhead that's on this earth. I
5:28
mean God the Father came down on the mountain
5:30
at Mount Sinai and all the people ran away.
5:33
God came down in the person of Jesus. He
5:35
is God manifest in the flesh but Jesus is
5:37
at the right hand of the Father and
5:39
he said, but I'm sending the
5:42
Holy Spirit. He is
5:44
going to be just like me. He's going
5:46
to teach you, he's going to communicate with
5:48
you, he's going to perform miracles like I've
5:50
done because I've done them by him. So
5:53
we need the Holy Spirit in our lives and in
5:55
the church. 100% I want to read
5:58
a quote by William Booth that says... Oh yeah. He was
6:00
asking, he was like, hey, tell us what you're
6:02
thinking. Oh, this might be the problems in the
6:04
future. Tell us what you're thinking might be the challenges.
6:07
And he said the chief danger of the
6:09
20th century will be religion
6:11
without the Holy Ghost, Christianity
6:13
without Christ, forgiveness without
6:15
repentance, salvation without regeneration,
6:17
politics without God and
6:19
heaven without hell. John,
6:22
I can't even tell you how
6:24
many, how many influencers,
6:26
I don't even want to say who
6:29
are saying there's no, there's no hell. There's
6:32
no hell. It's
6:34
Christian nationalism. Get God out of
6:36
politics. Repentance,
6:39
you know, we don't
6:41
need repentance anymore. We're just all forgiven.
6:43
We're all the image of God. But the
6:45
first one needs to have is religion without
6:47
the Spirit of God. Because when you have religion
6:50
without the Spirit of God, you get all of these. I
6:52
am totally convinced that. The Bible says that
6:54
the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. So
6:57
in other words, you can take the Bible,
6:59
you can kill somebody with it through legalism.
7:02
And so we need the Spirit of God.
7:04
You know, Lisa, before I read the Bible
7:06
every single morning before I'm Holy Spirit, please
7:08
reveal Jesus to me. You taught me to
7:10
always pray. So I'm going to just, I'm
7:12
going to dive really quick into 1 Corinthians
7:14
4 through 11. I'm going to read all
7:16
of it. No, 1 Corinthians 12. Oh, I'm sorry, sorry.
7:19
1 Corinthians 12, 4 through 11. Thank
7:21
you. Because that would have been confusing. Okay, so he's
7:23
at first. Well, I'm actually just
7:25
set it up with how Paul set it up. Now
7:33
concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I
7:35
do not want you to be ignorant. Now
7:37
when it says brethren, that includes also
7:39
sistering. Okay, we believe it's for
7:41
everybody. Then he goes on in
7:43
verse 4 of chapter 12. There
7:46
are diversities of gifts to the same
7:48
spirit. There are differences of ministry, but
7:50
the same Lord. There are diversity of
7:52
activities, but it is the same God
7:54
who works all in all. But The
7:57
manifestation of the spirit is given to
7:59
everyone. the each one for the prophet
8:01
of on the I'm it applies here
8:03
so we skipped over that God wants
8:05
to give. A manifestation
8:07
a reality of his
8:09
spirit. To every one.
8:11
It is not just for
8:13
ministers, It is for business people.
8:16
It is for stay home moms.
8:18
It is for children's. God
8:20
wants to give everyone the manifestation
8:23
of his holy spirit. And.
8:25
It is for the profit or the benefit of all
8:27
sucks. The gift of God and your life is not
8:29
for the benefit of you. The gift of that and
8:31
your life is for the benefit of. All.
8:34
This is to one is given the
8:36
words of with word of wisdom which
8:38
we talked about less podcast to another,
8:40
the word of knowledge through the same
8:43
spirit to another save some hope we're
8:45
going to talk about today at the
8:47
same spirit, to another, gifts of healings
8:49
by the same spirit to another, the
8:52
working of miracles to another prophecies, to
8:54
another discerning of spirits, to another different
8:56
kind of times and to another interpretation
8:58
of tongues but one in the same
9:00
spirit works all of these distributing to
9:03
each one individually. As see
9:05
will to the holy Spirit
9:07
is over the gifts. He.
9:09
Picks out the gift he was each
9:11
of us to have and a gift
9:14
he gives us is for the benefit
9:16
of. People around us and the motivation
9:18
is to be love now and or talked
9:20
about the regulatory get regulatory. Guess which regulatory
9:22
gives the word of wisdom would have knowledge
9:24
and discerning a spirits and now we want
9:27
to talk about the power gifts. Are just
9:29
so tired and the first one on the
9:31
list his. Face. Yes or
9:33
right now. Every christian has
9:35
been given some of faith so
9:37
we all have face. But this
9:39
is a faith that as a
9:41
gift it's given in a situation
9:43
where almost we feel like we
9:45
don't have that ability to believe.
9:48
I'm a I'm gonna give the
9:50
example the comes to mind. And.
9:52
That is, I have a very dear friend
9:54
who's been passing for years and years, but
9:56
before he was a pastor, he was on
9:58
the L. A. share of. Mint and
10:00
he came home one night. And
10:02
his son had been electrocuted.
10:05
And. The paramedics were there, he was
10:07
dead for thirty minutes. He said i'm
10:09
a share of I know yes sir
10:12
and he said. I'm. Playing
10:14
with my associate pastor. And.
10:17
We're. Praying for my son to come back.
10:19
And. He said john. I.
10:22
Was our I was out of faith. He. Said
10:24
and I knew it. Nothing was happening. The
10:26
paramedics were standing around looking to me like I
10:28
was a crazy man. He
10:30
said and I said this God. I.
10:33
Don't have any more face. But.
10:35
I know there is another faith. What
10:37
he was referring to is your data
10:39
theft of faith and he said i
10:42
need it. And. He said
10:44
john It was like something hit me on
10:46
the crown of my head in it started
10:48
slowing down in when it hit my malice
10:50
I something. Came. Over me
10:52
he said i know was the Holy
10:54
Spirit and he said i looked right
10:56
at my son's dead body and said
10:58
you will lives and not die in
11:00
Jesus' name and he said All of
11:03
a sudden the monitor went beep. Beep!
11:05
His heart started beating and his
11:07
son. He graduated president
11:10
of the senior class in high school
11:12
and graduated Four Point. Oh and you
11:14
C L A Snuff? That's a situation
11:16
where his faith couldn't get it but
11:18
dead gift of face came in. and
11:21
he's got a son alive today because
11:23
of it. Adds up in a beautiful.
11:25
Okay, so I want to highlight something you
11:27
said, so we all have a measure. Yeah.
11:30
We all have a measure and I and I
11:32
wouldn't be here to say that. that measure of
11:34
say. Grows as we use
11:37
it. Like. It's almost like a muscle
11:39
like you know that we all have a
11:41
measure of faith that you could almost see
11:43
the bury your faith as the top. like
11:45
never believe god Yeah that that you can
11:47
increase in faith. rights it's a
11:49
this was a gift to face
11:51
way said god increase my faith
11:53
so march eleven twenty to have
11:55
faith in god's literal translation says
11:57
had the faith as dot I
12:00
love the story of Abraham. It's said
12:02
that he is our father of faith.
12:05
He had no descendants. He
12:07
had no direction except for,
12:09
I'm just going to go out
12:11
and look for what only God
12:13
can provide. He left everything by
12:15
faith, knowing that God
12:18
was faithful. And I think that
12:20
that that faith is very much
12:22
attached to a relationship with
12:24
God. So if you
12:27
have this living relationship with
12:29
God, the message says
12:31
when Abraham had nothing, he
12:34
gave his nothing to God and
12:36
said, I give you permission to make
12:38
somebody out of a nobody. Yeah. I
12:40
mean, you use the muscle terminology. I
12:42
want everybody to see it like this.
12:44
You've got a world champion weightlifter who's
12:46
spotting you on the bench and
12:49
you can bench 185 pounds, but
12:51
now you've got 225. And as you start
12:53
lifting, you're out of strength, but
12:56
that guy grabs it and helps you lift it up.
12:58
That's the gift of faith. So in other
13:01
words, yeah, I remember when I first started weightlifting,
13:03
I could only do 95 pounds, but
13:06
then I got up to 185 and I got stuck. And
13:08
I remember some pastors helping me. They put
13:10
225 on. They helped me
13:12
get up. That's like the gift of
13:14
faith. We should be growing in our
13:16
faith. That comes by spending time in
13:18
the word, obedience to God, serving.
13:21
So you're saying this is over and above. This
13:23
is when I need that extra. It's considered like
13:25
you've got something heavy on top of you and
13:27
you're with all your might trying to push it
13:30
off you so you can get free from it.
13:32
And somebody else comes in and picks it up
13:34
and you get out from underneath that weight.
13:36
That's the gift of faith. I
13:39
believe you have the gift of faith
13:41
because I have watched you have faith
13:43
to do things in and through our
13:46
organization that I didn't even have faith
13:48
for. And I've seen you impart
13:51
that to our team in prayer, in Clarity,
13:54
in strength, where we pray
13:56
into something that you have
13:58
the faith for. And then
14:00
we are at our. Our. Faith are
14:02
natural say to your gift to face. I've seen that
14:04
have what. I remember the first time I
14:06
said to you all were going give away
14:08
two hundred fifty thousand bucks this year to
14:10
pastors oversee. Go. Back further the when you said let's
14:13
give way more books and we sell every year and
14:15
I was like that is the stupidest thing ever for
14:17
her to my life. But the whole time
14:19
I'm saying that Lisa. I'm. Trembling.
14:22
But. Yet. Deep. Inside, I
14:24
know we were going to do it. And
14:26
that deep inside we know we're going to
14:29
do it. That's big gift to say. even
14:31
though I'm trembling even though I'm like, how
14:33
in the world are we ever gonna do
14:35
this? I just knew. Were going
14:37
to do it and that gift to
14:40
say I will say yes that is
14:42
something is operated I realized that my
14:44
life for the benefit of the kingdom
14:46
because it is hop Messenger international go
14:48
to work God wanted us to go
14:50
to pioneer and disciple know that the
14:52
nascent with in the same. Same.
14:54
Light. I've seen you walk in that
14:56
gift of the discerning of spirits and
14:58
other gifts. word of wisdom and so.
15:01
Why? Does God do this? So we
15:03
depend on each other And I will say
15:06
this: Lisa I I do know that. God.
15:08
One day showed me work. I've
15:11
given you the say for that, but that doesn't mean
15:13
your team necessarily has it. And. You can't
15:15
look at a night owl up. They're all
15:17
like what's wrong with you. I gotta help.
15:20
Walk. You through. To
15:23
get you to the place that Okay,
15:25
let's go together. It's like a human
15:27
beings body. The most important thing is
15:29
we're unified. This body is in unity.
15:31
It's not fighting against each other. It's
15:33
not putting down other members. It's not
15:36
despising other members. So this is why
15:38
I believe Paul sandwiches love right the
15:40
middle of this. And you know when
15:42
Jesus said had had the face of
15:44
God that's after Peters like flabbergasted because
15:46
he looked at a fig tree and
15:48
said it's no one's going ever eat
15:51
anything from you and the next. Day
15:53
they walked by and scribbled up and
15:55
peters like oh my gosh and Jesus
15:57
said hates. Deliberately. Have the
15:59
faith of. Because you can even say to
16:01
this mountain be removed and because into the sea.
16:04
And it's gonna happen if you have
16:06
to face of God. So phases so
16:08
so important. And that's why I love
16:11
this gift of the spirit enough. Another
16:13
once it would be cel. Lives of
16:15
healing is not healings. It's not the
16:17
give them a yelling at the our
16:20
gifts of healing just of healings. Now
16:22
I'm gonna I'm gonna talk to net
16:24
can talk about this one Absolute I
16:26
believe God puts a supernatural ability. Of.
16:29
Believing for ceiling. In.
16:32
People and it's different. For.
16:35
Example. I don't know why,
16:37
but it seems every time somebody has something really
16:39
wrong with their back and I pray for him.
16:42
To. Get healed and it's like I've got
16:44
this this this belief that I know
16:46
people them he be get healed but
16:48
what I. Have seen
16:50
a new. Is people getting
16:52
pregnant? I. Actually have
16:55
because or share this story of what would
16:57
happen, how how how you first discovered while
16:59
this is a gift of the spirit in
17:01
my life. Yes, I had just had
17:03
our first baby and I was, you know,
17:06
just getting ready to come back to work
17:08
and I was in the closet hanging up
17:10
clothes and I heard the Holy Spirit sat
17:12
way to play spicier specifically for this one
17:14
woman that we worked with. We had about
17:16
three hundred employees that we worked with to
17:19
have a baby and I thought what, She
17:21
wants a baby. So. I
17:24
was a I was scared John was not
17:26
issue is it sees their it I. Have
17:28
very yeah gearing way out. She was intimidating,
17:30
but she was just quite just very quiet.
17:32
Very kind unaware Aca she's not. She was
17:35
young, And to know I avoided a hard
17:37
to accept occurence and other people that are
17:39
they don't That's like a by say sense
17:41
I mean they they get pregnant, have babies,
17:43
are they dance And so I kept avoiding
17:45
avoiding them when they had knocked on doors.
17:48
And and and let me set this
17:50
up Also she was the executive system
17:52
of the second are powerful person volume
17:54
vs higher net as church yes. Yes
17:56
was also scary and so I open the door
17:58
and it's can I ask. My question
18:00
and she said. Like to
18:03
me like I'm not sure about that's an and then
18:05
I said do you want to get pregnant. And
18:08
she just nodded her head. And.
18:10
Ice and before I knew what I was
18:12
doing John to say throws up and I
18:14
just said you're you're gonna hold a be
18:16
in your arms and the next ten months
18:18
and then I walked out of the room
18:21
and panicked as like what decide says say
18:23
it's like oh my gosh what did I
18:25
just say it's. And. She
18:28
said later. I'm
18:30
shadow baby. Nine a half months later, She
18:33
said. Something inside of her jumped
18:35
when I said it. And
18:37
something that had been closed off and
18:39
her life. Opened. Up then I
18:42
remembered going to a Baby sharks and another woman
18:44
pulled me aside and said hey, I need you
18:46
to pray for me to get pregnant like I'll
18:48
be in agreement She's like no, I need to
18:50
pray for me and you presently sites as like
18:52
I want to bring I I'm praying. For be
18:54
bought the get pregnant so. I like took off
18:57
off off site any hidden room and
18:59
prayed for her. And she
19:01
got pregnant and John but so beautiful
19:03
as I was added shirts at a
19:05
women's conference getting ready to speak and
19:07
is beautiful young girl gets up and
19:09
she opens up and she sings just
19:11
I mean just like an angel and
19:13
afterwards from mom comes up to. Me
19:15
or does the girl comes up to me she
19:17
said i'm the go you prayed for. My
19:20
mom to get pregnant with an it was just
19:22
so many years later I was like wait. What
19:24
was your month or take to me? go
19:26
back to the original movie and boost Executive
19:28
associate of a sudden high school yeah on
19:30
how long have they been trying? I wealthiest
19:32
twelve years, Love years and she had a
19:34
baby in her arms. Nine I have one
19:36
month later. Yes. Okay so I think. She
19:38
had that something jumped inside of her.
19:41
And she can see that. My know, I
19:43
want to give an illustration of
19:45
how the body should depend on
19:47
one another. I. Have a
19:50
We have a partner. I was on the
19:52
phone with a partner know I remember the
19:54
part of the text is my phone because
19:56
the partner has my phone numbers. And
19:58
said would you please. Cry from my
20:01
wife and I guess that she
20:03
would get pregnant and I texted
20:05
him back and I said no,
20:07
I want my wife to pray
20:09
for you because I recognize that
20:11
spiritual gift of healing on your
20:13
life would you Member We've and
20:15
and they got pregnant Yes. They did.
20:17
Do you remember it was? I I know is in
20:19
twenty nine team. Yeah, I'm I went to
20:21
a church and. I was done ministry and
20:23
the pastor's wife could tell like you know they
20:26
put on a time limit and the pastor's wife
20:28
could tell I was kind of like I feel
20:30
like. I had to
20:32
rush off and she said if you have
20:34
something back outsized that I I prayed for
20:36
them to get pregnant and there was a
20:39
beautiful young girl. Who had miscarried
20:41
miscarriage and I think gave birth
20:43
to a stillborn and she had
20:45
just gotten so how can have
20:47
as you can imagine broken, broken,
20:49
broken and do members you record
20:51
your whole testimony. I prayed for
20:54
her and she. Had beautiful little boy.
20:56
So here's the thing. We. Believe
20:58
in healing. We believe that
21:00
God is a healing.we believe
21:03
he feels through Doctors. We.
21:05
Believe he kills through change of diet. But.
21:08
We also believe he. Kills supernaturally.
21:10
And We believe that God.
21:13
Wants to heal the there's nobody that
21:16
Jesus came to that he said i'm
21:18
not going to heal you that needs
21:20
to teach you something snug that gets
21:22
to pick the timing but I never
21:25
her Jesus say no to any once
21:27
so I would rather pray for people
21:29
to be healed. I mean
21:31
done. I've seen women healed
21:33
of Stds and and the now
21:35
calling us to ice but we've
21:38
seen that have. A that's another
21:40
gifts appealing the I see on
21:42
on your last because is like
21:44
an Ip deadly. Yeah, and I feel like
21:46
the the gift of healing on my life has
21:48
to do with Legacy. Has to do
21:50
with children. Has to do with breaking baroness? Yeah,
21:53
but yes, And so we saw God
21:55
do that and I still see God
21:57
do that. I had a good just
21:59
last week I was somewhere and of
22:01
both woman to have to be in.
22:04
She said you prayed for my friend
22:06
to get completely healed of as T
22:08
I O is we're as Td used
22:10
to be v deep as as yet
22:12
still you prayed for her and she
22:15
was completely healed. So it I keep
22:17
hearing this so. And we know what can
22:19
I say? One more thing as people. Say what if
22:21
you prefer somebody and they don't get help? I
22:24
would rather play for people and I'm not get
22:26
healed. Because. Here's the thing. We.
22:29
Don't stop preaching salvation because not
22:31
everybody. Response. So why
22:33
would we stop preaching healing God for your
22:35
i'm not the healer. I'd rather. Say.
22:38
It out there and people can grab
22:40
it by faith. At than than
22:42
act like yeah, there's no provision for
22:44
them nuts That's awesome. Or it's a
22:47
vote of the next one would be
22:49
working of miracle of miracles. Of course
22:51
the greatest miracle all is when somebody
22:53
gets born again, literally goes from being
22:55
spiritual dead to alive and we should
22:57
never take that for granted them and
22:59
are. That's why I believe alter calls
23:01
are so important. I believe leading people
23:03
to Jesus is so important. However, there
23:05
are things that happened what would be
23:07
an example of a miracle. the wedding
23:09
of kinda yet to hear they've they've
23:12
they've run out of. I don't know
23:14
if I've ever seen a miracle. A.
23:16
Man of recreate of miracle or.
23:18
Something like this. But this to me
23:20
as one of the most profound. Is
23:23
one the water turned into wine
23:26
that as how bout cd five
23:28
thousand people with to money located
23:30
and and realize noise sense Yes
23:32
okay now. These. Miracles you
23:34
have I think you have some you just
23:36
you just don't remember the I so let
23:39
me member when you had a day timer.
23:42
And. You had. Can. We
23:44
can we bring that one up? Now that
23:46
I was it was your entire your life.
23:48
You have seen miracles can I'm just gonna
23:50
reminds you See, Tells us or I know what you're
23:53
talking about. I left it. Somewhere. so you know
23:55
last lisa you are over eight states you had
23:57
a day time or this back in the days
23:59
when there were electronics. There was no
24:01
smartphones. There weren't even flip phones in
24:03
those days. We're talking mid 80s. And
24:07
everything, all our phone numbers,
24:09
all our appointments, all our calendar was kept in
24:11
day timers. A day timer was
24:14
physical. It was literally a book
24:16
with a three ring binder and they had all the
24:18
days and all the notes and appointments and all that.
24:21
You left at a store. You
24:24
searched the house frantically hoping that you
24:26
didn't, you know, you didn't do it.
24:28
It was nowhere to be found. You
24:30
checked your briefcase, I think
24:32
a couple of times. So you
24:34
were very panicked because it's Sunday
24:37
and you have to go to the state
24:40
wherever you were going the next day. You
24:42
didn't have any phone numbers. You had to
24:44
make phone calls. I had nothing. You needed
24:46
a miracle. And what did
24:48
you and I do? We joined hands and we
24:51
said, God, we know
24:53
where that is. We know where it is.
24:55
We need you to put that back into
24:57
Lisa's hands. Okay. After we said, amen, you
25:00
walked upstairs and there was
25:02
your briefcase sitting on the bed, the guest bed
25:04
in the guest bedroom with the
25:06
day timer on top of
25:09
the suitcase. You walked
25:11
downstairs and you said, John, an
25:14
angel has literally handled this. I
25:17
said, where did you find it? She said, you said it
25:19
was right on top of the briefcase. I said, didn't you
25:21
go through the briefcase? She said, I went through it twice.
25:24
That is an example of a working of
25:27
miracle. And so, um,
25:29
I could give other examples, but I wanted you
25:32
to know that you've seen it before and I
25:34
could give story after story, but these things still
25:36
happen today. And so Lisa,
25:38
we are like literally six minutes over.
25:40
So we've gone through the next three.
25:42
I think what we do is we
25:45
just, then the next podcast, talk about
25:47
the final three, because they're going to take
25:49
probably a little more time than even these.
25:52
And so why don't we continue this
25:54
until next time. So, um,
25:56
that works. Let me just say, okay, guys, I'm
25:58
going to close the. How are you closing
26:00
