But they're not understanding that you have to go through a period of elimination or a process of elimination to become that person. So you look at Job. People always talk about there's only one perfect person, and that's Jesus. The Bible says different.
The Bible says that there was another perfect person, and Job was a perfect person, but it says Job was perfect and upright in all his ways, which means he was spiritually mature. Not a perfect man. He didn't sin. He didn't do this. So people think perfect means you're not going to mess up. He was righteous. He was spiritually mature. He had a deeper level of understanding.
Through his experiences. So from my experiences, the experiences that I've had is giving me a deeper level of understanding. So now when I talk to my children, when I'm talking to my friends, when I'm talking to family, when I'm talking to you or anybody around the world, I can say through my experiences, I've learned so much because experience is the best teacher.
If I didn't go through these trials and tribulations, How can I come back and tell you anything?
The reason why we can look at Jesus is because he went through all temptation.
And he did not budge.
So now he's that example. Mm-hmm. I've been through so many experiences. My experiences have told me, hey, be right. This ain't good, my boy. I did it. I learned from it. This money that I got, use the money for what it's supposed to be used for. But do not fall in love with it. Because once you do, that's when the root of all types of evil comes.
Because it's already there because it comes with money. But now it's going to be with you because you done fell in love with the thing that you wasn't supposed to love. And then you have made that your idol. And God says you're not supposed to have what? No other guys before me. So since you've made that your idol, I'm going to take it away and take that away too and take that away.
And that's what God does.
Oh, that's your idol? Because God is a jealous God.
Oh. You putting that over me? Huh? All right. I'm going to show you. Yeah. So I'd always remember that.
You're going to make mistakes. And, you know, the thing is, Jesus, when he went through his 40 days of temptation, you read the scriptures after that, it says that after that, Satan left for a season. It didn't say he left forever. It said he left for a season, and then Jesus was approached by wise counsel. So he left for a season just because he wanted to go. Let me go watch Jesus.
See how he act now. Let me go watch his movements around these people. I'm going to find a way to get to him. And that's what the enemy does because just like he said in Job, when God asked him, where have you been? He said, oh, you know, I've been roaming to and fro the earth looking for somebody to devour because this spirit, been searching and searching for people to destroy.
And so we have to be very cautious of that. And money is a magnet to this spirit. And so that's why, you know, for me, I tell people all the time, don't be in love with money. Don't, don't love money. Understand it because it's a dollar and a million dollars. It take the same amount to make it. And we're over here fighting for something that costs the same.
One dollar and a million dollars or two million dollars or three million dollars. It costs the same to make it. Yeah. So why are we making that something that should be talked about? We should just be gracious. One thing in this life, because that's the only thing that matters. I had a day. I had an opportunity to spend three days in a cave. Oh, like.
When? I did this about two years ago now. Wait, you actually did it? Yes. It was three days. Three days, no light at all. I had a bed. I had a bathtub. I had a little area where I could sit. But for three days. It was dark. Pitch black. Three days and no light. No light at all.
No light at all. I had to do this for three days. The food that we tasted, the food that, well, I say we like, I was in there with someone. But you can't go in there with anyone. You're there alone. So they bring you food. It's near Portland. It's in Oregon. They bring you food at night or you really can't tell when, but they bring the food and it's supposed to last all day.
So it's like a silent retreat? It's silent because you can't have no phones. You can't have nothing. You're just there. You can't do anything for three days. So I had a chance to really sit with myself, my emotions, my feelings, being able to understand, but also made me just really be grateful for sight. Grateful for life.
Because if we didn't have these bodies, that's what everything would look like. Pure darkness. And the reason that we can see now is because we have these vessels. So leaving that experience made me so much more grateful for the fact that I have been blessed to have a body. blessed to have a vessel so I could see this plane of existence.
You know, so now I get a chance to experience God, experience consciousness in the flesh. Yeah. And so I'm just so thankful about that.
