Everybody can’t go! | 2021 Series

hey tony guys here popping in quick message today um well i don't know if it'll be quick but you know we're in the new year 2021 and something's been really on my heart and that is just about how you know we we look and we see things of the world like you we may see a rapper man or woman male or female who raps about fornication or selling drugs uh we may see an actor or actress who does movies about fornication or killing or what have you and and then we see their lifestyle their quote-unquote blessings we see their house their car i was watching youtube video last night on how um it was like how denzel spent his 200 million and just showing his life you know his you know his luxuries and things like that and for me you know it's inspiring um but on the flip side of that what i'm talking about is how we look at those things and a lot of times we will covet it you know and and you know how you can look and see beyonce life or you know oprah life or whoever and we covered it meaning that we envy it might not hate on it it might be inspired by it but we we want it and when i say we i'm just speaking generally not saying every single person or if we feel like we can't attain it we then tell ourselves we don't want it that more money more problems i don't want no problems i don't want to be rich i just want to be stable i just want to make enough money to take care of my bills and be able to do a little bit here and there and we'll put a lid on ourself we'll put a lid on god because we fear we are not worthy of that or that we will never get there anyways so we'll put that lid on but then if we take and we see somebody who is right next to us get a new car get a new house then we get upset and we get jealous when it's like that's the person really that you should be clapping for the person that you see doing the right thing or that you know personally or that come from nothing the person that you could watch elevate and grow that's the person you ought to be clapping for but if you notice [Music] when everyday people not celebrities start to advance and and do a little better they start to lose friends they start to get hated on and it literally could be get a raise of one dollar an hour maybe three four dollars an hour it literally could be get a new car that might even have a bad interest rate but people get jealous instead of saying hey i'm happy for you so in this year right here this is the year of weeding out everybody that's not happy for you because think about this now and i'll just paint a little picture for you

last relationship that you met through your ex and then this person still ain't happy for you but then still taking all your business back to your ex cause you still keeping in touch this is the year of weeding out people who are not genuinely happy for you see listen and it's one thing i'm starting telling my family just want some thing i'm start telling my family tell me if you if you love me tell me you love me on a random day don't tell me how you feel about me i thought and gave you some money i thought i did something nice but tell me how you feel about me on a blue monday don't wait till giving sunday when i don't bless you to tell me what how you feel about me because i don't know if that's real because i just gave you the stimulus i just stimulated your bank account or your life and now you're telling me i love you do you tell me you love me when i ain't got nothing to give you but ain't nothing i could do for you but love you just tell me then and that's what i'm starting telling my friends and family did you feel like that last week if so why you tell me then you see but that's people showing their true colors and people showing a true color like so this is this example we ride me and my wife we ride and i say hey babe help me think of a girl to give such and such because he helped change my life this was an elderly you know white guy and i talked to my wife and i said help me think of this hill gift now listen the gentleman have not done anything for me in five years but what he did for me five years ago it blessed my life so as i'm riding with my wife it just hit me and she found a really cool custom gift put a name on it paid for it it's in the mail on the way now see the fact that he has not done for me in five years when he get that it's gonna mean something totally different than if he just gave me something yesterday and then i tell him right after he i tell my wife right after that hey help me think of a gift for him you said i mean that's the kind of people that you want in your circle people who they gonna tell you thank you and you ain't even did nothing for them they're gonna tell you thank you just for being you they're gonna tell you thank you and the last time you did something for them was a year ago but it just hit their heart and they felt some gratitude and they said thank you that's the kind of people that you need in your circle the people that they only happy when using stimulated their bank account or their lifestyle that's not the people you need in your corner that's the kind of people you got to feed with a long handled spoon that's the kind of people you got to give them six feet okay they give me 60 feet that's the kind of people like that and so this is the year to where you do a little flex and when i say flesh i don't mean literal sense of flexing meaning that you showing off and you rubbing stuff in their face but if you get a raise if you get an unexpected blessing if you get a new apartment a new house a new car if your credit score go up if you pay off some debt you've sacrificed you focus post that on your facebook i just want to say thank you lord for blessing me with this new vehicle and i want to encourage those of you who you have a goal of having a new vehicle so you can feel safer on the road to believe god and to work hard and to trust the process and it is going to happen so you ain't just flexing but you also inspiring and encouraging now see who happy for you and you know people you know people when they really happen when they fake happy see who's genuinely happy for you now the people who really know you who really know you like your family your close family anybody on your text message see who of those people who text you call you with genuine joy in a voice hey girl i just see that car hey girl you better come pick me up give me a ride in that thing girl i love the smell of a new car i'm talking about that kind of energy something to take congrats on you look how i know you think you're all that don't you my mama i remember my mom when she you know got blessed when god blessed me to bless her she showed a friend and a friend like what's the address and mom like just tell them when you could come by and on the friend like why you can't give me the address the friend wants to look it up see how much it cost and my mom i'm saying you know my address hey y'all y'all know your business is for the uplifting of the kingdom and so my mom told my mom friend ended up texting her mama noticed later all her life you know tell her don't let that house change all of that i knew you when you were this and that you know just some kind of message like that just nasty spirited now my mama told me later that she apologized um and some could have convicted her spirit or she could have saw my mama continuously going up and she's like man let me not lose my seat on the train and so she eventually probably but that right there that energy that she gave or that jealousy that let me remind you what you was let me remind you where you come from let me let me tell you ying all of that cause i got a house in my own name that i worked hard and paid for all you only reason you got that cause your son did it that what the friend said something to that effect and my mama she just let it roll off her back like water off a duck and she told me about it and i got me a good laugh and i told i said mommy you ought not never talk to her again you ought not never talk to her again because that's the type of person that'll slice your tire when she's leaving your house and you don't even know and you go out and think you just got a legitimate nail in your tire and the friend that was hating on you stuck a nail in your tire hammer the nail in there or took a little pocket knife and then slice your tire then slip some sugar in your tank idea then then put a hot dog out of her purse under your couch so you got ants and roaches and you wondering where in the world the ants and roaches come from and you're a nasty friend of stuff some old food under your couch when she came over you can't have people around you with nasty spirits who unhappy with their life and jealous of any little thing that you get in your life because that's a dangerous person yeah pray for them yeah i love them but you also keep your distance don't be no fool bob tell you not to be no fool now so don't be no fool yet oh we supposed to love our name okay yeah love your neighbor pray for them that's love pray for their heart pray for their spirit if you got it send them a little flower send them a little flower for nothing similar card say god bless you wishing you the best 25 gift card that's love but keep your distance oh no i'm not i'm unavailable friday oh unfortunately i miss you i'm sorry i'm on a call sorry i'm tied up right now i'm not taking calls this week because i'm focused i'm working on a project you too busy be too busy it's the season of being too busy for better people for people that's not happy to see you grow happy to see you shine and i was talking to my wife about that i said i was like baby you know when i be posting us uh hanging out i say the reason why i post it is so that people can see that you don't have to be an athlete or a rapper or doing something secular or doing something that seems scammy or that's called a scam or seen as a scam or you don't have to be doing these things like you could live a pure lifestyle for christ and you can have a purpose-based business and still enjoy the finer things of life like and you can be a christian and still live because everybody think that christian you posted just your life so boring and you don't get to do nothing and have no fun but you could be a christian and still live and i say that's why i post that just to let people like the people who trying to grow but i'm like i be posting and losing followers and she said that's good she said i'd rather have 10 supporters 10 real followers on social media that is happy to see me be blessed than to have and 190 of them hating 90 of them secret haters and i say you know what you write so this is the year of not hiding what god is doing for you because you thinking that that's arrogant and that's what the lord laid on my heart the lord said listen the people who live in a secular lifestyle when they post what they doing and what they got in the advancements that they getting in life and they giving they saying thank you god god's saying that's making me look bad because they're not living for me but they're not gonna say thank you satan so they said thank you god but they bad pr because they don't live right they life don't back up a righteous lifestyle what the bible teach but then so what god is saying but here you are being elevated being blessed and you're afraid to share a blessing because you don't want to offend nobody but i'll tell you when you pray in private you're going to be blessed publicly the bible tell you that that he will prepare a table for you before your enemies a seat right in front of your enemies that your enemies will become your footstool the people that's hating on you have made themselves enemies because they ain't hating on you they're hating on the god in you because they know god in them so when you take and you suppress yourself and you hide your blessings and what god doing in your life then the people who want to serve god but have been told that it's boring and you're going to be broke and struggling and that serving god is a life of struggle and poverty and you are climbing the rough side of the mountain all the time now those people they can't see now they can't see that you can live a righteous lifestyle and still and be blessed that you ain't got to be waiting in the water forever yeah you might be in their season you ain't got to be coming up the rough side of the mountain forever yeah you might be on the season and that god will restore you and bless you and elevate you and favor you and give you blessings here on earth as he has stored up for you in heaven and so the people that's looking to you that's saying okay he or she doesn't club anymore don't get drunk anymore don't sleep around anymore and look at their life being blessed because they thinking that you got to get drunk at your friend's party at the card party at the bingo party that you got to get drunk to have a good time that you got to sleep around with the men that you meet at the restaurant at the lounge at the you know whatever at the board meeting at the you know small business association that you got to sleep with these men who in suits or in uniforms to have fun in life that you live in when you just on your back sleeping with tall dark and handsome sexy men you'd admit that that's fun that that is living that you got to dress with yo all your cleavage showing if if the rest of your body ain't where you want to be or all your butt showing if the rest of your body ain't where you want it to be that you got to show all kind of something to have fun and to get attention so what god trying to show you what god trying to show the people that's on a path he's trying to show them that no look you can live a clean lifestyle i'm gonna tell y'all i'm gonna tell y'all another little secret why i've been posting my wife i've been posting my wife because for one she feel more comfortable i don't post her if she don't feel comfortable so you know after our second son and her used to do um competing bodybuilding it messed up throw it off for hormones and stuff like that and so her body just wasn't regulated but she got her body regulated and so it helped her lose like probably 20 25 pounds and so even when she was 25 pounds heavier it looked good to me but that's not my body so i didn't it wasn't my right i ain't had a place to say you look good me i'm gonna post you because any woman knows a woman got to be comfortable in her body and feel like she on her path now she's not all the way where she want to be but she feel comfortable enough in this place of the journey so she okay with me taking pictures she actually asked me to take pictures sometimes hey can you take a picture of me and i love that because i want my wife to feel beautiful and to know that she's beautiful and not be feeling insecure because of the pressures of the world and so i've been posting her and the reason why i post my wife is because she have nice thighs and she could wear booty shorts and she could wear skin tight leggings and take pictures from the back and show a little bit of booty nah it ain't no crazy donkey derriere but it's enough booty to get a little station going she could do that but she does not do that somebody a man got blocked the other day asking me why do i not let my wife dress sexy because it looked like she always covered up and i had to go off on myself for one why are you worried about what my wife got on why you even at looking at my wife and why you asking me about my blog and you better be glad i ain't see you in person out of knocking in your mouth asking me about my wife and and i wrote my wife is grown and independent she what she want to wear but the reason why i post my wife is because i want the women of the world to see that you don't have to show all your skin now yeah if you want to wear you some shorts with your legs that's cool but that don't have to be your only go-to like you don't have to objectify yourself you could have on loose jeans or you could have on leggings with a longer shirt to wear not everything hanging out you could have on a cardigan you could have on a thick of a blue sweater a jacket you could wear a baseball cap you know you can wear sweats and still look classy sexy and sophisticated i want to show that because i know majority of my um followers online and i say follow us because not everybody's supporters i know i typically say supporters but i realize a lot of just spectators follow you online not supporters less than one percent of your following actually support you and so a lot of the followers a lot of them believe that you gotta that femininity is objectification that in in order to be feminine you have to objectify yourself by wearing tight clothes form-fitting clothes clothes that show all kind of cleavage or skin or you know what you call an asset whether that's your butt or your thighs or your calves or your breast or your stomach your abs and so many women believe that that's what sexiness is and not understanding that that ain't the only way like you can be beautiful and sexy classy sophisticated and be dressed like be covered up if that's what you want to do i don't tell my wife i don't pick a single outfit for my wife my wife dressed herself and i told her today i said you know what i thank god i thank god that i chose you like god i thank god cause i'm like if i had to dress a woman if i had to tell a woman how to dress it would be the way that you dress and you just do that on your own you do that naturally and i love that and if she get a look you know if she's showing some skin or something like that that's i i know her and i know that she modest and that she don't really like that so i know when she do it like our christmas photo she wore a thing that was just like it was a dress but it had shorts up under it and the shorts they weren't super long but so it showed a little leg but he got a dress on top of it like a veil covering it up so you really got it ain't just bare skin you looking through the little you know prep the little holes in the dress and that was her take on you know showing some leg and i liked it now it was real sexy to me and i liked it but that was her you know that's her side of it and somebody told her we want to see you in dresses but my wife don't like dresses so she told the lady i wear what i want to wear when i want to wear it i wear what make me feel comfortable in so many words she read her in a nice way that's how my wife feels and and i like that you know about her that she doing what she want to do how she want to do it and she dressing for her not for the world and whoever don't like it could take a ticket and get in line and that right there if that spoke to me and say you know that's the energy i got to be on i got to do for me i got to live the life that god has called me to live and bless me to live and not worry about who don't like it as long as i know my heart is in the right place and that i'm never trying to flex on nobody floss on nobody make nobody feel bad but i'm living in the fullness of god's grace mercy and favor and that's what i want to encourage you to do because i've noticed that it's a lot of [Music] private misery that people who are actually blessed are living in and your blessing have become a burden and your favor or your peace has become painful because you feel like you can't smile as big as you want to smile because other people are sad not realizing that the people that you are intended to reach who are sad need to see your smile so that they can see your mindset and your lifestyle makes a difference but if you put on a sad face thinking that you're gonna make them feel better you actually hindering them and you're not walking in your purpose y'all gotta forgive you here to print a print my wife the the boys they home schooled this week today school and open up this week because them cases went up so you're printing that school work for them so y'all um forgive me you hear that and so that's what you have to realize and and i'm reminded and i see i i still also realize that we have to do things with taste and you gotta evaluate where it comes from so if i'm riding in my car and i get a inspiration for a video i'm gonna shoot the video but i don't feel the need to take a picture sitting leaning on the hood on my car just to show the car and i really don't have it in me to come up with no deep caption about the car so i don't post like that if that's your style and that's how you do it then that's you the key is that with your blessings with your peace understand when i say blessings i'm not just talking material that's the thing that broke-minded and scarcity-minded people get offended by the word blessings because they think they think it just means material things blessing could be your peace of mind prosperity could be your peace of mind could be a glad heart could be a smiling face so when i say blessings understand that this encompasses everything about life that is pure okay that is uplifting so understand that but you have to make sure that with your blessings with your smile because there's a lot of people who smile but they in pain and so they put a mask on instead of truly working on joy and happiness they remain in pain by choice but just choose to put a mask with a smile on that's the wrong life to live see with your life be authentic so if i'm having a bad day meaning i just don't feel like it then i also share that hey i'm tired today yeah i got a headache today hey i'm you know i need a break today i'm emotionally drained today i'll share that too to also show the realities of life but i'm not gonna sad fish meaning fake like i'm sad or depressed to get likes or to get sympathy and some people do that they post a genuine feeling of discontent unhappiness and they get so many likes and so many comment prayers prayers in the comments that they like that feeling and now they start to lie and fake like they said for attention and sympathy that's wrong so here's the thing and then some people take and show their blessings with the intention to be spiteful that's wrong see what i'm saying here is operate from an authentic place in your heart that is pure and real if you feel that you are called to be a light and so this thing now if you know your pain will be a hindrance to somebody then don't share that but if you know that your pain is not that great or even if it is that great you know that it just will let people know that hey i have rainy days too but christ is my umbrella so yes i'm feeling it but i'm going to be all right because i'm finna speak this thing into exist i'm trying to pray my way through so hey y'all keep your head up and push through the tough time you see what i mean so if you could take that and spin that into something and when i say this i don't necessarily mean posting on facebook this could be in to your best friend this could be that you share this your best friend always see you smiling always see you happy always see you winning but if you have a day that's not good you lost somebody you lost something something happened you could share that too so they see okay so you are human you do go through things you do have feelings that might not always be so blissful but then you teach yourself how to get back up you find a way to get back up and to keep going and you press through okay i got you so now they see you down but then they see you get back up and then when you up they see you up and they see how you live life when you up and and you take advantage of the blessings and being able to live life and then when you down they see that you pray your way through so they seeing the evidence of god in you and on you and you're not hiding the growth and the journey and even if it's just for one person so that's what i did this is what happened i took it's a real life example i took and i did something to be a blessing to a couple of people and it was a huge huge blessing it was a huge blessing in every sense of the word it was a huge blessing that god laid on my heart to do for two different people and god took restored me god took and restored me everything that i had given god gave it back to me unexpectedly out of the blue in an unprecedented way it never happened before the way god blessed me and i took and i sent that praise report to the two people that i have been a blessing to and to my dad my mom and to my mentee so five people i never posted the whole story i never posted like what i did in total on social media because it's not for everybody everybody don't understand it not everybody be inspired a lot of people just think i'm trying to brag and it's not for everybody the restoration god you know blessing me [Music] replenishing me i didn't post that either because it's not for everybody now if i start a a group of power-minded like-minded people that have made an investment to be a part of this group of growth then i would share it with that group privately but i don't have that group yet so um and the reason why i don't have that group because i don't like routine i don't like being bound to something like youtube i could shoot a video if i want to shoot a video if i got the time to shoot a video if i ain't got time to shoot a video ain't gonna shoot no video but if you didn't paid to be a part of something and i say we gonna do a call every month then i got to do a call every month and i might not feel like doing no call every month so that's why i had a group but lord working on me and i'm thinking about doing it but anyway it wasn't for everybody so what it showed my mentee because i had told him the story and i had shared the story with him of what i did and i shared with him how i wasn't too happy about the lack of gratitude that was shown from the people that i decided to be a blessing to and it did a few things for him he learned the lesson on gratitude but then he also has been showing gratitude on an unprecedented level because he heard from a giver what gratitude should look like and feel like and what a giver what we need we're not giving it to get praise or to get thanks but when you give to a human that knows you you would like to see a certain type or or level of gratitude it ain't got to be one particular thing and so i expressed that to him just about human nature and about giving from your heart not expecting anything in return because with a lot of humans you're not gonna get anything in return and when i say in return i don't mean monetary i mean just like a a card that says thank you but it's written by hand [Music] 99 cent you see what i mean not even that and so or just something like you know just a little random something like oh tony always got a hat on in his videos let me send him a hat just for nothing it cost 30 let me send him a hat you know because he did this right here for me that was tens of thousands you know and so just like that and i shared that with my mentee to say look god won't leave you naked god won't leave you down when you've been obedient and you've been a blessing god will show you that your blessings your restoration you being replenished does not come from man it comes from god god will show you that when you are giving and you are living for him it is for his glory not for your glory not for the glory of people it is for his glory and and what what god will show you is that you won't give and it be returned to you void but when you give as my word says it will return press down shaken together and still running over when you give with a glad heart from the right place and so that's what i seen and i shared that with my dad with my mom with my mentee and with the two people i was a blessing to my wife she saw she got to witness that and that's what that was and so i say that to say not everything is for everybody as you this year are working towards your goals and you hit your goals it might not be for the general public it might be for the people that you know will be inspired by that and the people that won't be inspired by the people that'll be jealous of it the people that hate on you for it those the people that you got to move on from because those are the people that'll get you shot in the drive-by i'm not speaking literally but for some of y'all where y'all live at it could be literal okay it could be literal but i'm what i'm saying is those are people that they will bring you know calamity upon you because you got them right there next to you and they spirit wrong and you're not rubbing off on them they're not trying to grow they want to be the devil in your camp they want to be the center in your camp to sink your ship to slow down your growth your progress they want to be negative nate negative nancy they want to be doubting dan doubting dana y'all forgive me if i'm saying y'all name i ain't talking about you i'm just talking about the doubting version of you or the negative version of you okay they want to be that because they understand energy they understand that your good energy upsets them and they understand that somebody negative energy upsets them they are masters of energy so they understand that when you say hey what you think about this i'm thinking about starting this new line where i take and i you know do customization of this particular item and then i put it on like shopify on my own website and i put it on etsy just for you know google searches they start you know showing my little product what you think about that they want to be the person to say i don't think that's a good idea because it's a million people already doing that and it's like who are you like look where we come from like who do we know like you gotta have a big follower like that man you follow online what's his name ashley gaskin uh gas against gashke that man right there you got to have a following like that for anything that you know happened so it's like me personally i'll save that money i would say that man i wouldn't even do that because it's like with that money girl that's that's money we could go to bahamas with and live live our best lives that you're trying to buy stuff from china and customizing it and ain't nobody gonna sell it i haven't seen that happen too many times people just spend tens of thousands of dollars and then don't sell a single thing i can't if i had a dollar for every time i've seen that have a girl i'll be a millionaire right now and she's just a line don't know nothing ain't seen nothing but just shot your dream right out the aisle some people want to be that person they want to be your dream killer they want to be the person that keep poking holes in your shield in your boat and letting water in they got their life vest they already made a phone call with long antenna just to let the plane know hey we gonna sink here soon but she can't swim i got me a life vest so come on pick him up and then be giving your eulogy she was such an amazing person just so giving and so many people took advantage of her and she didn't deserve that and i now i hope those people just hate themselves because now she gone and but she put the hole in the boat and had her sos signal ready to go and knew you can't swim you see what i'm saying is people like that that's in your circle and some of them are disguised as family some of them disguised as day ones but you notice the the rappers or somebody made up the term day ones meaning somebody who you knew all your life from before you had that job you got or the the entrepreneur spirit you got or before you had clients or whatever it is you do before you had before you wrote your book or some people are disguised some people who are in this role they name mama your mom or mama depending on where you come from ma someone named daddy dad someone named sister someone named brother someone named best friend some of them named cousin some of them named son someone named daughter someone named uncle someone named aunty okay someone named boss someone named co-worker someone named professor teacher you see what i'm saying it could be anybody but when you spot them create your business schedule i'm too busy oh sorry i missed your call oh sorry mr carl just been so tied up i'm gonna give you a call when i'm able you say when you were gonna be able you said i'm gonna give you a call when i'm able and then see this the thing negative people people who want to be dream killers they will they'll chase you down they'll blow your phone up because misery love company so you will look at that as love sometimes you have confused them always calling you always texting you as love that they really love you they really know they get joy from causing you misery their goal is to slow you down so that they don't have to feel bad about the pace that they're going in their life but if you take off like a rocket like god been trying to do for you but you're not using wisdom of separating yourself from certain people then god can't do what he's trying to do in your life because you're not using wisdom and you're not creating separation that's why in the bible it was in a season where it say come out from among them see sometimes you got to come out from among them sometimes you got to be removed sometimes you have to have separation before you can have elevation and sometimes that got to be from family members from friends not just colleagues constituents co-workers sometimes it's blood relatives that are holding you back and you may not have to leave them forever it may just be for a season so that they could see that you willing to go without them and if they don't change their attitude and get they act together they gonna get left so if they don't scratch their booty and get glad and start getting inspired by your movement by your your happiness your hustle and your grind they're gonna get left behind and they're gonna lose an amazing friend so sometimes that season of of of distance it might be a month for some people it might be six months for some people it might be a year i remember i cut myself off because and i cut my sister oh this this my blood system i see the night i bought her a suite at the orlando magic game and she going to the suite and you get six tickets and you get a parking pass and got the suite all to herself so that you socially distance just hung her kids or whoever she taking i'm doing that for her tonight and but you know i could have uh i don't know how long ago it was probably a year or two ago and i think it was about a year that i ain't talking to my sister this my blood sister i was raised with her we got the same mom and daddy and i was raised with her every day of my life we was like peas in a pod and i cut her off as an adult you know why i cut off because she felt like i owed her something she felt like my sacrifice and my hard work belonged to her and that the fruits of my labor was her fruit but she wasn't willing to sacrifice and to work the way that i sacrifice and work and i told her you got like messed up and you got me bent trying me like a basil get off my phone and i ain't talk to her i blocked them and my mama would write me about every month that's your sister y'all need to make up and talk i just want my kids to be they i said uh-uh listen to me listen to me what i'm doing mama and you keep doing this you gonna get cut off i said listen anybody could get cut off anybody if you not adding to my life then you subtracting from my life and adding don't mean money or opportunities it just means good attitude it means pure energy righteous energy if you're bringing satan energy into my life you're going to get cut off point blank period i don't care who you are i do not care who you is and and that's what i let my mama know and that's why i let my sister know and then it was i don't know what it was that it just so happened we talked and it felt like i was talking to a stranger and for for months it just felt like a stranger because i hadn't cut at all but guess what my sister since i cut her off for that period of time she never once tried me again like i like i owe her something she know that my sacrifice is first for me and my family and that she nothing is old to her because we had the same mama we had the same daddy we had the same opportunity we had the same choices we got the same both got a brain and we know the same god so she know now that if you want to live on the level that god has blessed me to be able to live on then you got to serve god on the level that i serve god and that you got the sacrifice on the level that i sacrificed and you got to work on the level that i worked she know that now and we came back together i put her in position to win connecting her with one of my mentees and clients and they show her the ropes on how to start a group home because they got a group home and i paid the money she needed to get everything in order and i showed my bank statement to the people because they require bank statement to show that you got x amount of dollars and i showed my bank statement because you could use anybody bank statement so i did what it took minus what i did for her she wouldn't have been able to start the group home so i still taught her how to fish but so now and i taught her how to fish i took her to the lake but you're gonna have to throw the pole in you're gonna have to bait the hook and then you're gonna have to take the fish off and you're gonna have to clean the fish and you're gonna have to cook the fish or you're gonna starve point blank period and when you get to a certain level of life and understanding and you talking to god like and you read the bible and i remember um and you get to you know in matthew 10 and 4 it say do not suppose that i have come to bring peace to the earth i did not come to bring peace but a sword for i have come to turn a man against his father a daughter against her mother a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law a man's enemies will be the members of his own household anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me whoever finds their life will lose it whoever loses their life for my sake will find it anyone who welcomes you welcomes me and anyone who welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me so now you see this whoever welcomes a prophet as a prophet will receive a prophet's reward and whoever welcomes a righteous person as a righteous person will receive a righteous person's reward and if anyone gives you a cup of cold water to one of these little ones who is my disciple truly i tell you that person will certainly not lose their reward so now you see after jesus had finished instructing his 12 disciples he went on from there to teach and preach in the towns of galilee now see this what i'm trying to tell you is a lot of people's try to say that oh that's blood that blood that's your family list when you work for the lord when you're walking with god you have to realize that if a person don't have the right spirit and they're not seeking the face of god they're not trying to change then that means they are willingly being a demon in your camp and that devil is to steal kill and destroy and you will be a fool not to separate yourself from someone who refuses to grow so if you stay trying to enable and cuddle someone who is an adult and refuses to grow then you deserve every bit of calamity that comes upon you because you made a choice so what christ was saying is that the word will rightly divide it he bring a sword that you got to get on one side of them it's been a cut through the t's it's been a cut through the cheek and you got to be on one side or the other you hit me you got to be hot or you got to be cold but if you look warm you're going to get spit out so understand this that this is a year of separation this is a year of separation this a year where you realize who trying to grow and who trying to go and who trying to grow and go some people just want to go and don't want to grow and some people want to grow and they ain't trying to just hit they wagging on the earth they trying to buy their own wagon so y'all can ride beside each other but this is the year of recognition and realization of who need to get let go so understand that not now see look i'm doing a call tonight anybody this to call tonight ain't about this so this right here bonus and this for y'all who who ain't make the call but hey this tony gassin i got to get going god bless you we'll talk soon
