Hello friend Chaplain Terry Warner here.
00:00:24.417 --> 00:00:27.826
Hello friend Chaplain Terry Warner here.
00:00:27.826 --> 00:00:33.271
The title of this podcast is Sit Up Straight and Pay Attention.
00:00:33.271 --> 00:00:45.652
It's Series 4, or Season 4, episode 36, and it will air on September 2, 2024.
00:00:45.652 --> 00:00:48.286
One o'clock in the morning.
00:00:48.286 --> 00:00:55.953
By the way, your foundation scriptures are Proverbs 28 and 29.
00:00:57.762 --> 00:01:09.551
We have an important election coming up in November and I noticed a lot of people would rather argue and criticize each other than get active in helping our leaders reach a solution to our problems.
00:01:09.551 --> 00:01:16.992
Granted, a lot of the leaders make the problems and then solve it like they're some kind of genius.
00:01:16.992 --> 00:01:24.025
Our first and foremost problem, in my opinion, is a national debt of $38 trillion.
00:01:24.025 --> 00:01:32.096
The $38 trillion debt means that we are currently spending $1 trillion every 100 days.
00:01:32.096 --> 00:01:36.590
Our number one expense is paying the interest on the debt.
00:01:36.590 --> 00:01:40.969
Our number two expense is entitlements.
00:01:40.969 --> 00:02:00.552
Are you aware that our politicians and government are slyly inserting social security as an entitlement and reducing that expense, or talking about reducing that expense of paying out every month, is being considered so we can maintain other programs?
00:02:00.552 --> 00:02:10.228
Our inflation rate is adjusted daily and consequently it scrambles our true inflation rate, so we don't really know for sure what it is.
00:02:10.228 --> 00:02:13.382
What caused all this?
00:02:13.382 --> 00:02:28.854
Mainly uncontrolled spending, allotting money to non-citizens, buying our energy instead of using our own, refusing to curb our spending on everything and printing more money.
00:02:28.854 --> 00:02:32.810
And we're still just printing money as fast as we can.
00:02:32.810 --> 00:02:40.546
There's not $38 trillion in the world, it's all just paper.
00:02:40.546 --> 00:02:50.163
We have let in approximately 10 million illegal immigrants and given them money and benefits that we could not afford.
00:02:50.163 --> 00:02:53.832
We have aborted over 50 million babies.
00:02:53.832 --> 00:03:06.555
That is a 50 million per person reduction, or a 50 million person reduction for a tax base that is gone permanently.
00:03:08.300 --> 00:03:10.848
However, what is the root problem of our demise?
00:03:10.848 --> 00:03:14.064
And I'll quote.
00:03:14.064 --> 00:03:25.128
But you shall remember the Lord, thy God, for it is he that gives you the power to get wealth, it is he that may establish His covenant, which he swore unto you fathers.
00:03:25.128 --> 00:03:28.606
As it is this day, that's Deuteronomy 8.18.
00:03:28.606 --> 00:03:40.844
And for you, new Testament, people Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers, 3 John 2.
00:03:42.700 --> 00:03:57.687
Let's say I have a million dollars that I would like to give you because I love you, but you won't let me in your school, you won't let me in your place of employment, you won't let me in your home, you won't let me pray for you.
00:03:57.687 --> 00:03:59.927
That's Hebrews 7.25.
00:03:59.927 --> 00:04:04.709
And to top it all off, you inform me that I have passed away.
00:04:04.709 --> 00:04:06.733
God is dead.
00:04:06.733 --> 00:04:11.191
Time Magazine, april the 8th 1966.
00:04:11.191 --> 00:04:18.791
And actually, the million dollars is filthy and you are too stingy.
00:04:18.791 --> 00:04:21.406
1 Timothy 6.10.
00:04:21.406 --> 00:04:24.374
And change your mind.
00:04:24.374 --> 00:04:29.290
Malachi 3.6 and Deuteronomy 28.
00:04:31.384 --> 00:04:40.309
Then I start bawling and hollering at how mean and unjust you are and the only thing I receive from God is poverty, lack and sickness.
00:04:40.309 --> 00:04:51.206
So that I might learn something by being forced to, I have literally blocked God Almighty, who is love, from being able to help me.
00:04:51.206 --> 00:05:00.771
I think you understand that we are complaining and trying to get God to change His laws so we can live in rebellion and still receive His blessings.
00:05:00.771 --> 00:05:15.182
It is time we start praying for our country, for our leaders federal, state, local and our neighbors leaders federal, state, local and our neighbors.
00:05:15.182 --> 00:05:20.994
It is time we forgive them and forgive others and forgive ourselves and ask God for mercy to forgive us instead of judgment.
00:05:21.980 --> 00:05:23.904
We're facing judgment very soon.
00:05:23.904 --> 00:05:27.552
We're facing the return of Jesus Christ very soon.
00:05:27.552 --> 00:05:29.726
Oh, I know you can shr?
00:05:29.726 --> 00:05:39.822
Shred your shoulders and roll your eyes all you want to, but when you look at our present condition and the financial state of the world, it's not just us.
00:05:39.822 --> 00:05:44.612
We are close to the very end times of this age running down.
00:05:44.612 --> 00:05:50.370
You know, the Jews were looking for the Messiah when he came the first time.
00:05:50.370 --> 00:05:57.267
They were looking for a conquering king and he came as a lamb slain for the sin of the world.
00:05:57.267 --> 00:06:09.389
Now we're looking for a return of Jesus Christ to gather his church and he's looking for a return to separate the sheep from the goats.
00:06:09.389 --> 00:06:17.173
Seek first the kingdom of God, and all these things or blessings shall be added unto you.
00:06:17.173 --> 00:06:20.300
Matthew 6.33.
00:06:21.601 --> 00:06:41.213
Friend, we have got to quit pointing fingers, arguing, disagreeing, griping and complaining and get back into walking in love, because God is love and we cannot walk with God if we do not walk in love.
00:06:41.213 --> 00:06:47.315
So, as today, I start today every morning, I forgive everyone.
00:06:47.315 --> 00:06:48.237
I forgive them.
00:06:48.237 --> 00:06:49.742
I forgive the people I meet.
00:06:49.742 --> 00:06:51.408
I forgive the people I don't meet.
00:06:51.408 --> 00:06:58.988
If I go into a place to eat, I forgive the people there, forgive them for what I don't know.
00:06:58.988 --> 00:07:03.629
Whatever may rise up, I'm going to stay in a forgiving attitude.
00:07:03.629 --> 00:07:07.411
I'm going to stay in a loving attitude.
00:07:07.411 --> 00:07:12.187
God is my source and God is love.
00:07:12.187 --> 00:07:23.279
And in order for God to be love, he'll always be love.
00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:26.942
In order for me to work and be in love with God, I've got to love everybody the same way he loved us unconditionally.
00:07:26.942 --> 00:07:29.264
So I do that right now in the name of Jesus.
00:07:29.264 --> 00:07:30.565
So I do that right now in the name of Jesus.
00:07:30.586 --> 00:07:42.415
Father, forgive me for holding on to grudges, for being sour-minded so many times, for speaking contrary to your word, for using your name in vain.
00:07:42.415 --> 00:07:48.990
Now, I don't use profanity, I haven't been known to do that.
00:07:48.990 --> 00:07:50.040
Forgive me for that.
00:07:50.040 --> 00:07:56.257
But using your name in vain is just speaking what I know to not be the truth.
00:07:56.257 --> 00:07:59.708
God's word is truth.
00:07:59.708 --> 00:08:02.887
Jesus is the word made flesh.
00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:04.824
You want to live in victory.
00:08:04.824 --> 00:08:12.911
Give your heart to Jesus Christ, fellowship with him daily and learn his ways.
00:08:12.911 --> 00:08:15.165
He'll make your way prosperous.
00:08:15.165 --> 00:08:17.346
He'll make you the head and not the tail.
00:08:17.346 --> 00:08:20.928
You'll lend to many and not borrow.
00:08:20.928 --> 00:08:24.250
You'll live and walk in divine health and prosperity.
00:08:24.250 --> 00:08:27.449
Everything you set your hand to do will prosper.
00:08:27.449 --> 00:08:30.821
You will be more than a conqueror through Jesus Christ.
00:08:30.821 --> 00:08:36.231
You can do all things through Jesus Christ, who gives you strength In him.
00:08:36.231 --> 00:08:39.063
In Jesus, I live and move and have.
00:08:39.063 --> 00:08:46.009
My being, my existence I owe to him totally and I call him my Lord and my Savior.
00:08:46.009 --> 00:08:55.073
Jesus is Lord over this nation, over my life, over your life.
00:08:55.073 --> 00:09:17.009
The quicker you learn that and the quicker you work with him and get in on his side, the better things will be and you can live a life of victory and love, kindness, caring, and you can be a solution to the problem in this world instead of part of the problem itself.
00:09:17.009 --> 00:09:19.506
You have a blessed day.
00:09:30.565 --> 00:09:31.725
In Jesus' name amen.
