He whispers in our heart.

And I remember the Lord telling me, Dave is not responsible for your joy.

You are.

Quit giving somebody else the responsibility to make you happy.

But the one thing that the Lord said to me that was really life-changing for me was I was feeling sorry for myself one time and I felt like God was correcting me for it.

And I said, well, I have a reason to feel this way.

Look at everything I went through.

He said, you have a reason to, but you have no right to because I'm willing to set you free.

Oh, sure.

You have to, you work with God.

I don't like to say I have to work at this, but...

The Holy Spirit is the one that changes us, but he will give us things to do because we're partners with God.

I've found so many times when I'm praying about something, God will show me what to do.

Like one time I was praying for somebody that needed some financial help, and he said, why don't you stop asking me to do things that you could easily do yourself and just don't want to?

You know, I've had so many things like that.

God has walked me out of the bondage that I was in.

But let me give you a good example.

I've recently just really seen this.

You know, we all have problems in our life.

We have bondages.
