00:00:00.400 --> 00:00:03.040
Hello friend, Chaplin Terry Warner here.

00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:07.280
This is a podcast audio of Dr.

00:00:07.280 --> 00:00:09.119
Lorette Willis.

00:00:09.119 --> 00:00:12.720
She's a cognitive behaviorist.

00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:15.679
Very exciting interview with her.

00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:26.160
And you can see it on YouTube if you go to my channel youtube.com forward slash at chaplain Terry Warner.

00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:31.120
Look under videos playlist, I think is the chaplain's corner.

00:00:31.120 --> 00:00:32.880
Look for praise moves.

00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:34.399
That's the name of the video.

00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:35.840
And I posted it there.

00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:37.600
Well, you'll want to listen to this.

00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:39.679
This is really something else.

00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:41.359
So no more introduction for me.

00:00:41.359 --> 00:00:44.560
I'm gonna turn it over and we'll switch over to the audio track.

00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:45.759
Thank you very much.

00:00:45.759 --> 00:00:47.520
You have a blessed day.

00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:52.320
Hello, friend.

00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:54.159
Chaplain Terry Warner here.

00:00:54.159 --> 00:00:55.679
My guest today is Dr.

00:00:55.679 --> 00:00:57.359
Lorette Willis.

00:00:57.359 --> 00:01:07.439
She is a I I count it a behavior, cognitive behavior therapist.

00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:10.239
And she's got so much to go on.

00:01:10.239 --> 00:01:14.159
I don't want to even begin listing the times and all the things.

00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:20.799
I'm gonna turn it over to her immediately and just let her go where she wants to go, and we'll follow along.

00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:25.280
So sit back and listen, and let's get your needs met today in Jesus' name.

00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:26.000
Amen.

00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:26.560
Dr.

00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:27.200
Lorette?

00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:28.879
Well, hallelujah.

00:01:28.879 --> 00:01:31.040
Thank you so much, Chaplain Terry.

00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:33.680
It's a blessing to be here today.

00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:40.159
You know, it's not by might nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of Zechariah 4.6.

00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:49.439
You know, so if there's anything today that you feel, oh, I keep messing up, I keep making mistakes, why can't I get it right?

00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:53.599
You know, turn to the Lord because He has the answer.

00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:57.760
You know, you might find that, oh, I don't know if the Lord can use me.

00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:00.959
I've done so many wrong things in my life.

00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:07.599
Maybe you've had an abortion or a divorce or been in jail or, you know, any number of things.

00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:09.520
You had a hard childhood.

00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:18.479
And you might think, well, you know, I still have problems with substance abuse or some different things and habits that I'm ashamed of.

00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:28.639
Well, I want you to know the Lord is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us.

00:02:28.639 --> 00:02:30.240
Well, what is that power?

00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:39.120
We know the power of faith, the power of love, the power of the Holy Spirit of God Himself on the inside of our recreated human spirit.

00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:52.000
When we have the power of God on the inside of us, especially through his word, and I'll just get my little Bible here because this is so important, the Word of God.

00:02:52.000 --> 00:03:03.759
And I invite you, if you don't know Jesus personally, um I invite you to do so today because Jesus, he's not a religion.

00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:12.479
You know, that was the thing, Chaplin Terry, when I was heavily involved in the New Age spirituality and movement through the door of yoga.

00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:22.800
My mom and I got involved in it when I was just seven years old, thinking it was just exercise, but it led us into, led me into 22 years.

00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:43.439
In New Age, I was a psychic, I was a channel, I was into metaphysics, tarot cards, astrology, um crystals, I mean levitation, everything, you know, A to Z, astrology to Zoroastrianism, and everything in between, looking for God in all the wrong places.

00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:49.280
And I finally one day just came to the end of myself and I cried out to God.

00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:50.719
I was an alcoholic.

00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:58.560
I was a high-functioning alcoholic, I was an actor off Broadway, a comedian, known as the woman of 101 Voices.

00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:00.879
I did the Betty Boop Show off Broadway.

00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:01.919
I certainly did.

00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:03.199
Boop boop bee-doop.

00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:04.159
I did.

00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:06.240
Do you remember Betty Boop, Chaplin Terry?

00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:07.439
Yeah, yes, I do.

00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:11.360
Well, I was Betty Boop, not the original one.

00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:13.520
I mean, she was created in 1928.

00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:14.960
That's a long time ago.

00:04:14.960 --> 00:04:21.120
But I did the Betty Boop Show off Broadway portraying Betty Boop and about 40 other characters and voices.

00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:33.040
I did a lot of voice work and laughing on the outside, seeing people laugh, making them laugh, you know, enjoying that, but empty on the inside and searching.

00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:37.759
And I couldn't imagine a day without alcohol, really.

00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:50.000
I'd started as a compulsive overeater at the age of six, an emotional eater, using food to cope with my life and a lot of trauma growing up in our home.

00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:52.480
Everything seemed lovely on the outside.

00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:54.399
Uh, both my parents were attorneys.

00:04:54.399 --> 00:04:58.240
My mother was the first woman assistant district attorney on Long Island.

00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:01.120
She was also a university professor.

00:05:01.120 --> 00:05:05.759
She was a mensa, you know, for those really smart people, and she didn't really want to do that.

00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:08.399
But my dad was like, uh, you're brilliant.

00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:09.279
You should take the test.

00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:09.920
And so she did.

00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:10.879
She was okay.

00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:12.800
And my dad was also a judge.

00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:14.000
We lived on Long Island.

00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:16.000
Everything just seemed so beautiful.

00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:24.959
But on the inside, there was a there was rage, there was alcoholism, there was overeating, there was sadness.

00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:30.560
My mother was diagnosed schizophrenic and had three nervous breakdowns when I was growing up.

00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:32.720
Uh, my dad was an emotional eater.

00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:34.639
He also could fly into a rage.

00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:43.120
He was not physically abusive, but he would get, you know, enraged with things, and it was kind of scary, you know, walking on eggshells, as it were.

00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:46.079
And to cope, I used food.

00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:51.040
And so I I ask, you know, you who are listening today, have you ever done that?

00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:57.279
Have you ever um used comfort food instead of going to the comforter?

00:05:57.279 --> 00:06:00.160
And you might say, Well, I don't even know who the comforter is.

00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:17.199
Well, I think uh Chaplain Terry and I would like to introduce him to you because I said, Chaplin Terry, you know, my husband Paul and I, we were both in uh the New Age spirituality, which is a combination, a conglomeration of a lot of different beliefs.

00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:27.839
It's basically God in our image instead of the truth that we are made in the image of God, Genesis 1, 26 and 27.

00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:32.959
So Paul and the past.

00:06:33.279 --> 00:06:33.519
Yeah.

00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:38.879
And you can't you can't get down the road to the future if you if you let if you hang on to the past.

00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:40.639
You gotta forget those things.

00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:43.519
And more than forget them, you gotta do away with them.

00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:50.800
And it takes time and effort and uh a specific effort, otherwise they just get masked and you hide them.

00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:52.560
Didn't mean to interrupt you there.

00:06:52.879 --> 00:06:54.240
No, no, please do.

00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:57.759
I'm I'm happy for the uh the conversation, absolutely.

00:06:57.759 --> 00:07:11.120
Well, my husband and I, after we got saved, after we turned our lives over to the Lord Jesus, uh, we said, Why didn't anybody ever tell us we could have a relationship with God through Jesus Christ?

00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:13.600
I always thought people were talking about some kind of a religion.

00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:17.519
You know, you had to go to a certain church, believe a certain doctrine, this and that.

00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:19.439
And I was like, nah, I don't think so.

00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:25.680
Had I known a personal relationship, that's really what it's all about.

00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:27.360
And as a child, I knew that.

00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:32.480
I had a closeness with the Lord when I was little bitty, like the ages of three and a half till I was six.

00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:42.639
But then that wall comes up and there's that distance, and the enemy uses so many things to try to keep us away from God.

00:07:42.639 --> 00:07:57.120
So before we go any further, I just feel this impetus to want to ask you who's uh listening if you've been uh away from the Lord for a long time, or you say, Well, I don't even know if I'm saved, what does saved mean?

00:07:57.120 --> 00:08:00.160
Well, salvation, it's wholeness, completeness.

00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:04.560
It comes from shalom in Hebrew, peace, nothing missing, nothing broken.

00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:07.360
It's also the power that destroys chaos.

00:08:07.360 --> 00:08:09.199
That's the peace.

00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:11.279
Jesus is the prince of peace.

00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:26.399
So if you have chaos in your life, if you feel that there's a missing uh piece, a P-I-E-C-E on the inside of you, uh it may well be the missing P E or A C E peace of God.

00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:30.160
And it's a peace that only Jesus can give.

00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:54.559
But you know, Pastor Terry, one thing I love is that it's so very simple to receive uh that peace, to receive uh Jesus as our Lord and Savior, to save us from ourselves, to save us from the uh eternal torment of being apart from God, to have that closeness with the uh with the Lord.

00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:55.440
It's so simple.

00:08:55.440 --> 00:08:59.200
And I once asked the Lord, why did you make it so simple?

00:08:59.200 --> 00:09:06.639
And I believe in my heart he said to me, if it weren't simple, then the simple could not be saved.

00:09:06.879 --> 00:09:07.279
Yes.

00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:10.639
Oh, that is and the peace is the shalom.

00:09:10.639 --> 00:09:12.720
It's so much more than peace.

00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:15.919
Peace is just a a a fraction of it.

00:09:15.919 --> 00:09:21.519
We're talking complete whole wholeness and entity inside Christ.

00:09:21.519 --> 00:09:26.559
And boy, yeah, I mean, everything gets calmed down when you put shalom on things.

00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:27.840
That's right.

00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:31.440
Everything gets calmed down when you put shalom on it.

00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:32.320
I like that.

00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:33.360
That's good.

00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:35.840
That's a t-shirt right there, I think.

00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:40.000
Everything gets worked out just right.

00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:51.840
Well, in Romans 10, verses 9 and 10 says, if you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:55.440
You will be made whole, a new heart, a new start, a new beginning.

00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:59.600
You're made a new creation in Christ Jesus right that moment.

00:09:59.600 --> 00:10:05.519
I know when I received Jesus, I felt like a huge weight lifted off me.

00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:10.879
It felt like about 30 pounds of weight that I thought was just my body on the earth.

00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:12.720
And it was the weight of sin.

00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:14.480
I didn't even believe in sin.

00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:19.600
As new agers, we were taught that sin was an acronym for self-inflicted nonsense.

00:10:19.600 --> 00:10:21.519
And why did Jesus come then?

00:10:21.519 --> 00:10:23.039
Oh, he was just a good teacher.

00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:25.519
That was the deception that we were taught.

00:10:25.519 --> 00:10:30.879
But when I came to the end of myself and I just cried out to God, I said, I surrender, I give up, you win.

00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:34.399
Jesus, if you can do something with this life, you can have it.

00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:37.039
And I wanted Jesus to be the Lord of my life.

00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:41.600
So I ask you, do you want Jesus to be the Lord of your life?

00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:45.360
I mean, just think, who else could there be?

00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:47.120
No one else, no one else.

00:10:47.120 --> 00:10:48.960
He made you, he loves you.

00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:53.519
So all you have to do is say, and I invite you to say it after me.

00:10:53.519 --> 00:10:55.840
Father God, I come to you.

00:10:55.840 --> 00:11:00.399
Father God, I come to you in the name of the Lord Jesus.

00:11:00.720 --> 00:11:02.080
In the name of the Lord Jesus.

00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:05.840
Father, you know all the mistakes I've made.

00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:07.679
You know all the mistakes I've made.

00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:10.000
You've known the sins I've committed.

00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:12.000
You know the sins I've committed.

00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:14.159
I ask you to forgive me of sin.

00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:16.159
I ask you to forgive me of your sin.

00:11:16.159 --> 00:11:18.960
Put them as far as the east as from the west.

00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:19.519
Yes.

00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:23.120
Throw them behind your back, put them in the sea of forgiveness.

00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:28.080
I want Jesus to be the Lord of my life.

00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:34.000
I believe you raised him from the dead.

00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:38.720
Jesus, come into my heart.

00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:42.720
Be my Lord, be my savior.

00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:49.200
And Father, I will love you and serve you all the rest of my days.

00:11:49.200 --> 00:11:50.879
In Jesus' name.

00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:51.840
Amen.

00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:59.919
Now, if you prayed that prayer for the first time or the first time in a long time, I invite you to reach out to Chaplain Terry and let him know.

00:11:59.919 --> 00:12:06.799
I know that he has resources that he can share with you, showing you how you can live a victorious Christian life.

00:12:06.799 --> 00:12:22.399
And did you hear in that uh Chaplain Terry how just those two little steps to ask Jesus to be the Lord of your life and believe in your heart, not in your head, but believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead.

00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:29.600
I believe that in everyone, there's that, yeah, I I don't know why I believe it, but yeah, I do.

00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:37.519
And there's a whole lot of evidence for it too, historically, more than there's evidence for Julius Caesar to have been alive, really.

00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:38.879
It's true.

00:12:38.879 --> 00:12:39.519
Yeah.

00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:45.440
So just to believe in your heart, God raising from the from the dead, that makes a difference.

00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:54.399
I I'm sure, you know, Chaplain Terry, that you have some amazing stories of people changing once they receive Jesus.

00:12:54.399 --> 00:12:55.279
Have you?

00:12:55.600 --> 00:12:56.480
Oh, yes.

00:12:56.480 --> 00:13:04.399
Well, myself, I can speak for myself big time, facing death three certain times in Vietnam.

00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:07.919
Uh it's extremely detailed and stuff.

00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:09.200
I won't go into it now.

00:13:09.200 --> 00:13:18.240
But you know, when we accept Christ and receive him into our hearts, we get the anointing of the Holy Spirit, and it's the anointing that breaks the yoke.

00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:26.159
And so that that uh weight you felt Lee was the yoke being broken off the shoulders, holding you down.

00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:34.000
Wow, that's beautiful, and that's Y-O-K-E, not Y-O-L-K, right?

00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:38.000
It's not a yoke from an egg, it's a yoke of bondage.

00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:43.360
Yeah, and Jesus says, My yoke is easy, my burden is light.

00:13:43.360 --> 00:13:47.279
His we're yoked to him, and he's he's doing the hard work.

00:13:47.919 --> 00:13:52.720
Yes, it's not what I can do for God, it's what God can do through me.

00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:54.960
Yes, that makes the difference, you know.

00:13:55.440 --> 00:13:56.080
That's true.

00:13:56.080 --> 00:14:01.840
What does it take, do you think, to be that vessel of honor that the Lord can flow through?

00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:06.480
It for me it was a it was a quality decision that I made.

00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:16.559
I used to have a terrible temper, and I would fly off, and I had a dog that would dig a hole under the fence and get away and just drive him up a wall.

00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:22.960
And I caught him one day and was uh giving him a spanking for get getting out from under the fence.

00:14:22.960 --> 00:14:28.720
And a kid, a kid across the street yelled, Mister, why don't you pick on somebody your own size?

00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:41.519
So I went inside and I was so mad, and I slammed my fist down on the recliner and I said, as of right now, I will not get upset ever again, period.

00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:48.399
And I said that about a thousand times over the next week, at least that much.

00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:54.639
And now, and then one day, one day, my words brought about the desired result.

00:14:54.639 --> 00:14:58.399
Speak to the mountain, get rid of the unbelief by your words.

00:14:58.399 --> 00:15:08.879
What comes out your mouth is what establishes where you are in life and where you are in Christ, and that's why you speak with the mouth of this the confession of salvation.

00:15:08.879 --> 00:15:14.559
And then I got mad at God one time and stayed mad at him for about three years.

00:15:14.559 --> 00:15:17.120
And yeah, a long time.

00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:19.360
And it was stupid.

00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:24.159
But when you're out of God's will, a lot you do a lot of ignorant things.

00:15:24.159 --> 00:15:28.320
So anyway, I finally came back around and the Lord confronted me about it.

00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:30.960
So I repented and got rid of it, and he accepted me back.

00:15:30.960 --> 00:15:37.360
And he's not only the God of a second chance, he's the God of the third, fourth, fifth, however many chances you need.

00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:39.919
He's the God, he's the God of it.

00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:42.320
Yes, yes.

00:15:42.720 --> 00:15:48.559
Whatever you need, he is, he not only has it, he is it.

00:15:48.559 --> 00:15:57.360
I had a pastor that used to say that one of the names of the Lord is if I don't have it, I will make it for you.

00:15:57.360 --> 00:15:59.919
You know, he is that I am God.

00:15:59.919 --> 00:16:03.840
We get to spend eternity with him.

00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:04.399
Yeah.

00:16:04.639 --> 00:16:12.320
I think about like justified, just as I, just as I, you know, that's where I've been made righteous.

00:16:12.320 --> 00:16:16.480
Not my righteousness, been made righteous with his righteousness.

00:16:16.720 --> 00:16:17.279
Yeah.

00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:23.519
And then the thing, I guess, I reached a point after fellowshipping with him and staying with him and reading the Bible.

00:16:23.519 --> 00:16:31.120
I started reading the the Bible by reading the living uh Bible paraphrase.

00:16:31.120 --> 00:16:41.519
Oh, and then after I translate I got through with that, then I went into King James and Hebrews and and all the Greek and stuff like that.

00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:45.679
But uh when I got serious about God, he got serious about me.

00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:47.919
Now that's not really true.

00:16:47.919 --> 00:16:51.679
He was serious about me before I understood it.

00:16:51.679 --> 00:16:56.960
And but nevertheless, he kept he was patient with me and he guided me around.

00:16:56.960 --> 00:17:04.240
And uh, and sometime uh we'll have to get back together, I'll explain about my dear death near death experience.

00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:07.039
I mean near death.

00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:19.359
Yeah, uh three times there and um in and uh consequently my Parkinson's I got sprayed with Asian orange, but I'm healed, I'm healed in the name of Jesus.

00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:24.000
Yes, you are and uh and so I really ign ignore it to be truthful, yes.

00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:34.880
Uh oh, one one thing that helps it a lot is exercise, diet and exercise, and golf especially helps Parkinson's tremendously.

00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:35.680
Really?

00:17:35.680 --> 00:17:36.240
Yes.

00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:39.039
So I'm 79 and I was playing right-handed.

00:17:39.039 --> 00:17:45.920
I had two little, what do you call them TIAs, which were in my right side, and I couldn't do right-handed.

00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:48.799
So I just wish and started playing left-handed.

00:17:49.680 --> 00:17:51.440
And now how do you do?

00:17:51.839 --> 00:17:52.640
I do pretty good.

00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:54.799
I shoot in the middle to high 40s. [Middle 40's to middle 50's]

00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:56.160
That's wonderful.

00:17:56.400 --> 00:17:58.880
Yeah, for 79 years old, that's not bad.

00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:00.000
Hey, hey.

00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:04.319
That's wonderful.

00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:04.960
Wow.

00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:10.880
And you know, in the realm of eternity, you know, it's it's so small, you know, when we look at that.

00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:13.839
Um, I think about a Caleb anointing.

00:18:13.839 --> 00:18:17.119
You know, Caleb in the the Old Testament, he was the one.

00:18:17.119 --> 00:18:20.640
Yeah, give me that mountain.

00:18:20.640 --> 00:18:24.480
You know, he said, I feel as good now as I did 40 years ago.

00:18:24.480 --> 00:18:27.039
You know, I'm just I'm gonna go for it.

00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:37.359
I mean, he and Joshua, he they were the ones of those uh of the spies who said, No, we're we're well able, but it's our God who's well able to do these things.

00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:50.319
But then there were the other spies who came back with the bad report, and they said, Oh, I don't know, there's giants in the lands, and and uh we're like grasshoppers in their sight, and we're grasshoppers in our own sight.

00:18:50.480 --> 00:18:54.160
Yeah, so it wasn't the giants that kept them out, it was the grasshoppers.

00:18:54.400 --> 00:18:57.359
That's right, the way they saw themselves, yeah.

00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:03.279
I my podcast for last week was Stop Wrestling God for your gifts you already have.

00:19:04.240 --> 00:19:06.240
Oh, say that again, that's good.

00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:09.680
Stop wrestling God for gifts you already have.

00:19:10.400 --> 00:19:13.359
Wow, that's good, yeah.

00:19:14.079 --> 00:19:17.039
Joshua and Caleb is the are the same character.

00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:18.559
How could they say that?

00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:28.880
Be an old testament, you know, and get into that, and and uh make sure you get your books and stuff in there during this conversation.

00:19:28.880 --> 00:19:30.720
I'll be I'll be quiet, sorry.

00:19:31.039 --> 00:19:32.319
Oh no, no, please.

00:19:32.319 --> 00:19:34.559
This is a wonderful conversation we're having.

00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:35.599
It's beautiful.

00:19:35.599 --> 00:19:47.519
Well, you know, Chaplin Terry talking about things that hold us back, things that hold us down, things that we think God can't use us because of these things.

00:19:47.519 --> 00:20:03.839
Well, from my own experience, um, having been an emotional eater from the age of six, and then getting involved in yoga and new age, and then for the next, you know, what was it, 22 years, from the ages of seven till I was 29 when I came to the end of myself.

00:20:03.839 --> 00:20:12.000
Well, the Lord has taken those weaknesses and made them into platforms of healing for others.

00:20:12.000 --> 00:20:27.519
So I say to you who's who's listening that you have a story, you have something that will give the glory to God when you allow him to use you, just as Chaplin Terry said, to be that vessel of honor that he can flow through.

00:20:27.519 --> 00:20:37.440
You know, I say to the Lord so many times, Lord, if you can use a donkey, you can use me, you know, whether it be Balaam's donkey, that talking donkey.

00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:41.119
And you know, Chaplin Terry, that that was a female donkey.

00:20:41.119 --> 00:20:44.559
So she didn't say he-ha, she said she ha.

00:20:44.559 --> 00:20:46.160
Did you know that?

00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:49.200
I made that up.

00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:53.039
But but it is a female donkey, that's true.

00:20:53.200 --> 00:20:54.640
The Balaam's donkey.

00:20:54.640 --> 00:21:01.119
But you could look at it also this way: um, Jesus riding into Jerusalem on the donkey.

00:21:01.119 --> 00:21:06.000
How would you like to be the donkey that Jesus rides in on into that situation?

00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:07.440
Oh, yes.

00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:12.799
So many times I visualize where I am in the scene when I'm reading the Bible.

00:21:12.799 --> 00:21:16.960
Are you are you the the lady with the issue of blood?

00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:21.039
Are you the the dad of the daughter that's dying?

00:21:21.039 --> 00:21:22.640
Are you just part of the crowd?

00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:27.680
That said, multitude, you're talking a thousand over a thousand people following him along.

00:21:27.680 --> 00:21:29.200
You're talking to a big crowd.

00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:41.599
And you should be your your image should be to the point where you're the body of Christ, that you're part of Jesus, that you the healing and stuff is coming through you, not through your own effort.

00:21:41.599 --> 00:21:45.039
No, it's the Holy Spirit working through you.

00:21:45.039 --> 00:21:48.079
That and that that image is so important.

00:21:48.079 --> 00:21:59.839
When, you know, I uh I got my pilot's license years ago, and the instructor saw the pilot inside of me long before I did.

00:21:59.839 --> 00:22:06.799
Once I soloed, I became I went from a student to a pilot.

00:22:06.799 --> 00:22:23.119
Well, once I got serious about God and got in studying his word, then gradually, not immediately, but gradually I hit a point where I became the teacher and the lecturer and not the the learner.

00:22:23.119 --> 00:22:34.160
We learn and learn and read and read and study and study, and we get mentally smart and we're mentally in depth.

00:22:34.160 --> 00:22:38.400
But it says it's spoken word is what brings about results.

00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:39.119
Yes.

00:22:39.440 --> 00:22:41.440
You know, and we and we we miss that.

00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:49.200
We know the Bible, we know it frontward and backwards, we can quote it, we can write it, we got all kinds of translations, but we don't know it.

00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:52.319
We hear it, but we don't know it.

00:22:53.920 --> 00:22:58.640
But then faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God, Romans 10, 17.

00:22:58.640 --> 00:23:01.680
And you believe more what you say than what anyone else says.

00:23:01.680 --> 00:23:05.920
So when you're speaking the word of God, that is so powerful.

00:23:05.920 --> 00:23:15.440
Every cell in your body, and one of the things I'm blessed to do, I'm a cognitive behavioral therapist, learning how to blend neuroscience with the word of God.

00:23:15.440 --> 00:23:23.279
I talk about renewing the mind on the word of God, then retraining the brain using neuroscience principles and techniques based on scripture.

00:23:23.279 --> 00:23:29.839
If I don't see a correlation in scripture, I don't use it because I want to press truth into things.

00:23:29.839 --> 00:23:41.440
And in fact, we've got a little exercise that we can do in a few minutes here that will prove it to you that actually cuts cravings in 10 to 15 seconds.

00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:43.519
So I'll share that with you in a moment.

00:23:43.519 --> 00:23:48.799
And as I was saying before about, you know, Lord, if you can use a donkey, you can you can use me.

00:23:48.799 --> 00:23:58.319
That was how, you know, when I look at the only things that qualify me for what I get to do, Chaplain Terry, are all the things I've done wrong.

00:23:58.319 --> 00:24:05.680
The Lord has turned those things, redeemed those things, turned those things around into platforms of health and healing for others.

00:24:05.680 --> 00:24:18.720
The yoga that I was involved with, you know, for so many years has become a Christ-centered alternative to yoga ministry called Praise Moves.

00:24:18.720 --> 00:24:25.359
The Lord gave me the idea for that by the grace of God on February 25th, 2001, at 10:35 in the morning.

00:24:25.359 --> 00:24:26.880
I remember it exactly.

00:24:26.880 --> 00:24:28.960
And I prayed about it for two years.

00:24:28.960 --> 00:24:35.839
I prayed and fasted because I didn't want to have anything to do with yoga, even though it was all in caps, alternative.

00:24:35.839 --> 00:24:42.400
You know, it was just like, I have avoided confrontation so much of my life.

00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:45.039
I was ruled and riddled by fear.

00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:54.079
Um, that spirit of fear that 2 Timothy 1.7 talks about, God's not given you a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and a sound mind.

00:24:54.079 --> 00:24:55.839
I thought, wow, a spirit of fear.

00:24:55.839 --> 00:24:56.880
I thought it was an emotion.

00:24:56.880 --> 00:24:57.920
I thought it was me.

00:24:57.920 --> 00:25:06.960
Then I learned you can rebuke that fear, tell it to go in the name of Jesus, in Jesus' authority, and tell it to go, and it does.

00:25:06.960 --> 00:25:13.680
But I still wasn't sure about this praise moves, it's called and praisemoves.com.

00:25:13.680 --> 00:25:28.799
People can see that we have hundreds of fitness ministers, instructors, certified praise moves instructors on six continents around the world, women and men, ages 18 to 80s, that do praise moves, that teach praise moves.

00:25:28.799 --> 00:25:31.599
We have free workouts and all kinds of things.

00:25:31.599 --> 00:25:43.279
Every posture in praise moves is assigned a scripture that we meditate upon and speak aloud while doing a stretching, strengthening posture.

00:25:43.279 --> 00:25:52.000
So I like to say that the exercise is the witty invention to get you more into the word of God and more of the word of God into you.

00:25:52.000 --> 00:25:55.279
So that's that's how praise moves works.

00:25:55.279 --> 00:26:00.960
So the Lord has been able to redeem something that was such a negative in my life.

00:26:00.960 --> 00:26:07.039
And those who, if you know, if you're someone who does yoga and say, well, wait a second, I think it's just exercise, isn't it?

00:26:07.039 --> 00:26:16.240
I invite you to look at praisemoves.com because I have a lot of evidence that shows you what the agenda for yoga truly is.

00:26:16.240 --> 00:26:32.720
In fact, the word yoga in Miriam Webster's dictionary, it's a um a Sanskrit word, meaning it it derives from India, and that's the sacred, the so-called sacred language of Hinduism.

00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:35.920
It's a Sanskrit word meaning to yoke.

00:26:35.920 --> 00:26:54.720
Remember when we talked about yoke before, but it's a different yoke, and it says it's a mystic and ascetic Hindu discipline for achieving union with the supreme spirit through prescribed postures, meditation, and breathing techniques.

00:26:54.720 --> 00:27:00.640
So, in other words, it's salvation by works and not through Jesus.

00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:05.599
And in fact, the poses in yoga, according to Dr.

00:27:05.599 --> 00:27:20.559
George Alexander, who was uh uh professor at Biola University for many years and became a friend of ours, uh, he grew up in Sri Lanka as a Christian, and he would see many yogis, you know, around him all the time.

00:27:20.559 --> 00:27:30.720
And he said, you know, the poses in yoga are offerings to the 330 million Hindu gods.

00:27:30.720 --> 00:27:40.400
So you see a twisting there of Romans 12:1 to present your body as a living sacrifice, wholly acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.

00:27:40.400 --> 00:27:42.960
And they say, empty your mind, empty your mind.

00:27:42.960 --> 00:27:56.960
No, Romans 12 2, and do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by renewing your mind on the word of God so that you can prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

00:27:56.960 --> 00:27:59.839
So I invite you to take a look at praisemoves.com.

00:27:59.839 --> 00:28:09.839
And if you have someone you love who's doing yoga and you're concerned, you know, about that, and oh, what do I say to them?

00:28:09.839 --> 00:28:13.119
Or if you're like, well, I don't know about I'm gonna have to see it for myself.

00:28:13.119 --> 00:28:16.480
I have a free download that you can check out.

00:28:16.480 --> 00:28:25.440
Um, and once you see who the Lord of yoga really is, it's Shiva, Lord, Lord Shiva the Destroyer.

00:28:25.440 --> 00:28:26.160
Yeah.

00:28:26.160 --> 00:28:37.039
And so what is a practice that is dedicated to Lord Shiva the Destroyer doing in the church of the Lord Jesus Christ?

00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:39.359
Because there is yoga, you know, done in churches.

00:28:39.359 --> 00:28:44.880
So I'm careful to let people know, Chaplin Terry, that praise moves is not so-called Christian yoga.

00:28:44.880 --> 00:28:49.839
That's an oxymoron or contradiction in terms like a Christian Buddhist or a Christian Hindu.

00:28:49.839 --> 00:28:53.599
There's no such thing, but it's a Christ-centered alternative.

00:28:53.599 --> 00:29:30.799
Um, for many years, gurus such as Swami Sivasiva Palani said in 1991 in an open letter to evangelicals in Hinduism Today magazine, he said, over the last 10 years, and this is over 30 years ago, he wrote this, over the last 10 years, an army of yoga missionaries have been sent out to the Western world, beautifully trained in Hatha, which is the type of yoga that's done in most fitness centers and churches.

00:29:30.799 --> 00:29:36.480
I was a Hatha yoga instructor and teacher, you know, the student, 22 years, right?

00:29:36.480 --> 00:29:40.480
Hatha, kundalini, raja, different types, Siddha yoga.

00:29:40.480 --> 00:29:47.839
They may not call themselves Hindus, but Hindus know where yoga comes from and where it leads.

00:29:47.839 --> 00:29:50.720
So that was said by Swami Sivasiv Palani.

00:29:50.720 --> 00:29:57.680
Yoga is the missionary arm of Hinduism and New Age.

00:29:57.680 --> 00:30:02.319
So that's why I say if you want to learn more about that, check that out.

00:30:02.319 --> 00:30:14.160
If it's at your church, if you have someone who's doing that, get that free download at praisemoves.com and just send it in an email to someone and say, Hey, could I have your feedback on this?

00:30:14.160 --> 00:30:15.119
I'd really appreciate it.

00:30:15.119 --> 00:30:18.640
This way you're not feeling like, oh, I'm I don't want to point a finger.

00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:22.400
Just say, would would you just take a look at this and give me your thoughts?

00:30:22.400 --> 00:30:29.119
Because I tell you, Chaplain Terry, once they see the truth of what it really is, you can't unsee it anymore.

00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:30.160
That's true.

00:30:30.160 --> 00:30:37.519
Uh a lot of my audience is Pakistan, Bangladesh, uh India.

00:30:37.519 --> 00:30:48.880
Uh I have I have a lot of Hindus and Muslims that I as a matter of fact, I write Bible studies for our university over in Pakistan.

00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:57.680
Uh but uh they're they are very ingrained in in everything but Christianity.

00:30:57.680 --> 00:31:07.039
You know, it's and I think about your you're talking about fear, false evidence appearing is real, is my acronym for fear.

00:31:07.039 --> 00:31:10.000
And you take get you get rid of that by taking gospel.

00:31:11.039 --> 00:31:13.279
Yes, yes, that's right.

00:31:13.279 --> 00:31:15.759
That's the right kind of pill to take, a gospel.

00:31:15.759 --> 00:31:16.880
Uh-huh.

00:31:16.880 --> 00:31:18.000
Amen.

00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:22.400
Well, that's that's about praise moves, if you want to uh check that out.

00:31:22.400 --> 00:31:37.279
And we do have instructors in India as well, uh, Winner's Church in Bangalore, India, which is that city is the home of the Shiva temple with the 60-foot-tall statue to Shiva.

00:31:37.279 --> 00:31:38.640
So it's amazing.

00:31:38.640 --> 00:31:42.799
That was actually where we had the first um praise moves class.

00:31:42.799 --> 00:31:50.480
And then my negative experiences with overeating have become weight loss without willpower.

00:31:50.480 --> 00:31:55.680
That's another ministry that we have, the W3 Sisterhood, uh, we call it.

00:31:55.680 --> 00:32:09.440
And it's the idea that you can lose excess weight without dieting, without deprivation, without delay, without shame, because it's about getting rid of the weight on the inside.

00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:17.279
The reason why we use food, going to the comfort food instead of the comforter, as I mentioned earlier.

00:32:17.279 --> 00:32:20.960
What is the reason why we have the excess weight?

00:32:20.960 --> 00:32:25.039
When you start getting rid of that, the excess physical weight comes off.

00:32:25.039 --> 00:32:31.759
Like Jessica Minter, who is a friend of ours in Oklahoma City, she's dropped 70 pounds.

00:32:31.759 --> 00:32:33.599
It's been off for two and a half years.

00:32:33.599 --> 00:32:39.759
A young mom, she said, I never thought about inviting God into my weight loss journey.

00:32:39.759 --> 00:32:43.279
We like to say, don't diet, live it.

00:32:43.279 --> 00:32:52.720
It's about living the way that the Lord called us to, getting in touch with the signals that he placed in our bodies, getting in touch with true physical hunger.

00:32:52.720 --> 00:32:59.200
And if we have emotions, how to deal with them, not using food, not using substances.

00:32:59.200 --> 00:33:07.119
You know, in fact, I could do that little exercise that I told you about, Chaplain Terry, and our viewers could do this as well.

00:33:07.119 --> 00:33:08.160
Would you like to try it?

00:33:08.160 --> 00:33:09.519
All you need is a pen.

00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:10.720
Sure.

00:33:11.039 --> 00:33:11.359
Okay.

00:33:11.359 --> 00:33:18.079
This is a bilateral brain stimulation technique.

00:33:18.079 --> 00:33:21.359
And it's called make the shift.

00:33:21.359 --> 00:33:24.799
And you can use anything small that you have in your hand.

00:33:24.799 --> 00:33:31.440
You can use a pen, you could use a key, you could use a little stone, a paper clip, you know, anything at all.

00:33:31.440 --> 00:33:32.799
A pen, that's perfect.

00:33:32.799 --> 00:33:37.039
Now, if you're driving, don't do this exercise yet, but come back.

00:33:37.039 --> 00:33:39.519
Come back later and do the exercise.

00:33:39.519 --> 00:33:43.039
It's the make the shift, the make the shift exercise.

00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:48.079
And it cuts cravings in 10 to 15 seconds.

00:33:48.079 --> 00:33:56.960
Now, we use it for cutting cravings to certain foods, but I believe it cuts other kinds of cravings too for different addictions because it breaks the circuit.

00:33:56.960 --> 00:34:00.799
So let's look at cravings for certain foods in particular.

00:34:00.799 --> 00:34:15.280
So I invite you to think of a food that you often go to when you want distraction or you're bored or you're sad or you're mad or you're happy or you're celebrating or you're just you just want to snack.

00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:21.039
You're not hungry, you're not physically hungry, but it's just like, um, I don't want to work on that project.

00:34:21.039 --> 00:34:25.039
I think I'll get a snack, you know, and that kind of a thing, all right?

00:34:25.039 --> 00:34:27.760
You're or you just can't seem to control yourself.

00:34:27.760 --> 00:34:30.159
Just like, I just have to have that food.

00:34:30.159 --> 00:34:37.280
That's how I lived many years, decades of my life and roller coaster dieting up and down, up and down.

00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:39.519
So you know where that food is.

00:34:39.519 --> 00:34:40.960
Is it in the cupboard?

00:34:40.960 --> 00:34:43.920
Is it in the pantry, the freezer, the refrigerator?

00:34:43.920 --> 00:34:48.239
I want you to see yourself going there using your sanctified imagination.

00:34:48.239 --> 00:34:54.159
Don't worry, we're going to cut the craving, we're going to cut that circuit, but see yourself going there.

00:34:54.159 --> 00:34:58.000
And you're just about to reach for it in your imagination.

00:34:58.000 --> 00:35:08.719
And that's where the dopamine rush comes in, where the um the chemicals are released that make you want more.

00:35:08.719 --> 00:35:15.760
And that's actually in the anticipation of something, not in the actual ingesting of it.

00:35:15.760 --> 00:35:17.199
So that's what happens.

00:35:17.199 --> 00:35:18.719
That's what we're going to cut right now.

00:35:18.719 --> 00:35:20.800
So see yourself reaching for it.

00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:34.239
Now take the pen or whatever small object is in your hand and bring it from one hand to the other, one hand to the other, one hand to the other, five, four, three, two, one.

00:35:34.239 --> 00:35:36.559
And now repeat after me, please.

00:35:36.559 --> 00:35:38.719
All things are lawful for me.

00:35:38.960 --> 00:35:40.480
All things are lawful for me.

00:35:40.719 --> 00:35:42.480
But not all things are helpful.

00:35:42.719 --> 00:35:44.079
Not all things are helpful.

00:35:44.400 --> 00:35:46.559
All things are lawful for me.

00:35:46.800 --> 00:35:48.639
All things are lawful for me.

00:35:48.880 --> 00:35:52.719
But I will not be brought under the power of any.

00:35:53.199 --> 00:35:55.760
But I will not be brought under the power of any.

00:35:56.159 --> 00:35:58.320
First Corinthians 6 12.

00:35:58.559 --> 00:35:58.800
Yep.

00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:00.880
First Corinthians 6 12.

00:36:01.679 --> 00:36:04.320
Chaplain Terry, where did the craving go?

00:36:04.559 --> 00:36:06.800
Do you forgot about it?

00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:09.039
Yeah, it's just totally gone.

00:36:09.039 --> 00:36:12.079
So that is a bilateral brain stimulation technique.

00:36:12.079 --> 00:36:15.679
Bilateral, two-sided brain stimulation is a technique.

00:36:15.679 --> 00:36:19.760
But then we press truth into it through the word of God.

00:36:19.760 --> 00:36:25.199
And this has brought this, in fact, that one scripture helped me drop 25 pounds.

00:36:25.199 --> 00:36:26.400
I kid you not.

00:36:26.400 --> 00:36:28.880
Because I would be reaching for a snack.

00:36:28.880 --> 00:36:34.880
My husband is one of those people who could, he could eat one MM and that's and put the rest away.

00:36:34.880 --> 00:36:36.480
It's just like, how do you do that?

00:36:36.480 --> 00:36:39.679
I'm better if I don't have any, any of it.

00:36:39.679 --> 00:36:46.159
But let's say I'm about to reach for a snack and I haven't, you know, made it part of my plan for the day.

00:36:46.159 --> 00:36:48.079
I haven't committed it to the Lord.

00:36:48.079 --> 00:36:49.519
I just like, I just want it.

00:36:49.519 --> 00:36:54.880
There's this little four-year-old child on the inside that just, I just want that's just I just the thing I want.

00:36:54.880 --> 00:36:56.639
And I'm reaching for it.

00:36:56.639 --> 00:37:03.920
Well, if I say this scripture, all things are lawful for me, but not all things are how you have to say it, not just think it.

00:37:03.920 --> 00:37:06.800
All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful.

00:37:06.800 --> 00:37:08.480
All things are lawful for me.

00:37:08.480 --> 00:37:18.159
And the most amazing thing happens through the power of that word, through the Holy Spirit of God Himself, and your recreated human spirit, that power comes up.

00:37:18.159 --> 00:37:22.239
But I will not be brought under the power of any.

00:37:22.239 --> 00:37:29.519
Being filled with all the fullness of God, that was the fullness I was looking for through that food.

00:37:29.679 --> 00:37:29.920
Yep.

00:37:30.079 --> 00:37:37.920
And the fullness of the comforter of the Holy Spirit, no comfort food can take the place of, cannot match it.

00:37:39.679 --> 00:37:55.119
And you know, I I I feel sometimes, I mean, especially when you're starting out, it's it's not gonna work every single time, but it it'll work enough if you'll stay with it, it will work every single time.

00:37:55.119 --> 00:38:04.239
Yes, just because just because things don't go the way quite the way you think they should, doesn't mean that it doesn't work or that's not right.

00:38:04.239 --> 00:38:07.199
It it's you're you're training, you're learning.

00:38:07.199 --> 00:38:16.719
You don't you don't you don't teach a two-year-old one time by pa slapping his hand, you know, yeah, but at the same time you don't slap it every time he turns around.

00:38:17.039 --> 00:38:18.159
Yeah, that's right.

00:38:18.159 --> 00:38:23.440
Yeah, it's uh if you use this, uh, because it does work, it it absolutely does work.

00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:36.960
If you if you use the you know the pen or something like that, when you feel that craving, and just I'm gonna okay, and I'm just gonna say that first Corinthians 6 12, New King James Version, I'm just going to say it, you will be amazed.

00:38:36.960 --> 00:38:38.559
It's just like, oh wow.

00:38:38.559 --> 00:38:42.559
But you see, you have to use your will to do it.

00:38:42.559 --> 00:38:45.840
Yes, that's it, because it's a free will of planet.

00:38:45.840 --> 00:38:47.599
That's how the Lord set it up.

00:38:47.599 --> 00:39:04.159
Um, but if your why is big enough, do you find this, Chaplain Terry, that when your Y, your W H Y, the reason why you want to do something, if it's big enough, you can go through just about any H O W any how to get there?

00:39:04.480 --> 00:39:05.039
Sure.

00:39:05.039 --> 00:39:08.800
I was just reading the article the other day.

00:39:08.800 --> 00:39:17.760
This guy's 28 years old and he set the world record for shooting an arrow 931 feet into the center of a bullseye.

00:39:17.760 --> 00:39:19.280
It was the world record.

00:39:19.280 --> 00:39:22.559
And they think, well, that's that's pretty amazing.

00:39:22.559 --> 00:39:27.280
But then you learn he did it be with his feet because he doesn't have any arms.

00:39:27.280 --> 00:39:29.920
930.

00:39:29.920 --> 00:39:33.840
931 feet in the center of the target.

00:39:33.840 --> 00:39:36.480
The broken record had been held seven years.

00:39:36.639 --> 00:39:39.280
And how many times did he do it though?

00:39:40.639 --> 00:39:46.079
He did it one, he did it that one time to break the record, but he he had no arms.

00:39:46.079 --> 00:39:48.559
Wow, he was born without arms.

00:39:48.559 --> 00:39:52.880
Nine and his how his how became bigger than his why.

00:39:53.119 --> 00:39:54.239
Yeah, yeah.

00:39:54.480 --> 00:39:56.960
He taught himself to do it using his feet.

00:39:57.360 --> 00:39:58.000
Amazing.

00:39:58.239 --> 00:40:01.280
And 931 feet's quite a little ways with a bow and arrow.

00:40:01.519 --> 00:40:02.559
It is, yeah.

00:40:02.559 --> 00:40:05.440
My my husband does does that.

00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:10.159
He likes that too, target shooting, and also the with the bow and the arrow.

00:40:10.159 --> 00:40:20.800
And he got me one, and I've I've used it a few times, but I'm I'm just not all that excited about it as much as as he a short story.

00:40:21.039 --> 00:40:26.400
I I used to I was trying to do something to a computer program, and my son got mad at me.

00:40:26.400 --> 00:40:32.639
This is back in the old days, and said, Why don't you learn how to program instead of trying to hack somebody else's program?

00:40:32.639 --> 00:40:38.880
So I took a course through America Online on computer programming using BASIC.

00:40:38.880 --> 00:40:44.800
And back in the movie theaters in the old days, they you sing along with a bouncing yellow ball.

00:40:45.199 --> 00:40:45.840
Oh, yeah.

00:40:45.840 --> 00:40:47.599
I remember sing along with Mitch.

00:40:48.559 --> 00:41:04.880
I yeah, I I wrote a program that did that, and they didn't think it could be done in in basic, and America Online took the program and made a training aid out of it because my how was bigger than my why.

00:41:04.880 --> 00:41:09.599
But I had people call me up asking me all kinds of computer questions, and I don't know.

00:41:09.599 --> 00:41:10.800
I did.

00:41:10.800 --> 00:41:14.960
But yes, I like that.

00:41:16.480 --> 00:41:23.280
Well, you know, I want to invite um you who are listening, if you would like to have something free.

00:41:23.280 --> 00:41:24.639
Who likes something free?

00:41:24.639 --> 00:41:26.159
We like free things, right?

00:41:26.159 --> 00:41:31.840
Uh I have something called the Christianweightlosskit.com, and it's totally free.

00:41:31.840 --> 00:41:34.320
It's a faith-fueled weight loss blueprint.

00:41:34.320 --> 00:41:51.760
And you just go to Christianweightloskit.com and it's a free mini course, and um, it has that exercise in it and several other things uh that will help you, um, and some other you know information that I think will be a blessing for you.

00:41:51.760 --> 00:41:58.559
And if you're someone that says, well, how boy, you and chaplain Terry, you just really know that word of God.

00:41:58.559 --> 00:42:00.000
You just just speak it out.

00:42:00.000 --> 00:42:01.840
It's like a it's a part of you.

00:42:01.840 --> 00:42:06.719
Would you like to learn how to meditate on the word of God?

00:42:06.719 --> 00:42:12.320
Because there's a lot said about meditation, oh, how it helps you be more peaceful and relaxed.

00:42:12.320 --> 00:42:20.639
But unfortunately, the world's idea of meditation or some mystical forms of meditation are about emptying the mind.

00:42:20.639 --> 00:42:28.079
And we don't want to do that, we want to be transformed by renewing our minds, Romans 12 on the word of God.

00:42:28.079 --> 00:42:34.239
I invite you go to go to Christian Meditationkit.com.

00:42:34.239 --> 00:42:36.960
That's Christian Meditationkit.com.

00:42:36.960 --> 00:42:45.199
And I show you in three simple steps how to meditate the word of God in a moment, and it works.

00:42:45.199 --> 00:42:47.840
It really works, it will transform you.

00:42:47.840 --> 00:42:49.599
It's it's wonderful.

00:42:49.599 --> 00:43:01.280
Well, I love being able to share what I love to do, um, Chaplain Terry, which is share the word of God because He has changed my life so much.

00:43:01.280 --> 00:43:06.800
You know, when I say He and the Word, maybe some people don't realize that Jesus is the Word of God.

00:43:06.800 --> 00:43:09.440
I'll never forget that someone said that to me.

00:43:09.440 --> 00:43:11.280
I was so amazed.

00:43:11.280 --> 00:43:12.800
I was a new believer.

00:43:12.800 --> 00:43:14.960
I was just about to be discipled.

00:43:14.960 --> 00:43:18.480
I mean, I was just, you know, brand new in the Lord.

00:43:18.480 --> 00:43:29.599
And I went to this little like coffee, um, like coffee shop, you know, gathering kind of a thing where they were singing gospel songs and and had, you know, fun humor and coffee house.

00:43:29.599 --> 00:43:31.920
And it was just like a really nice atmosphere.

00:43:31.920 --> 00:43:39.039
And as I was leaving, one of the men said to me, You know, Lorette, Jesus is the word.

00:43:39.039 --> 00:43:42.960
And I was like, it was like, what?

00:43:42.960 --> 00:43:51.760
And I tell you what, like a tennis ball on the inside of a dryer, that word went bouncing around on the inside of me for like two weeks.

00:43:51.760 --> 00:43:53.920
I was like, Jesus is the word.

00:43:53.920 --> 00:43:55.199
How does that work?

00:43:55.199 --> 00:43:59.679
Well, in John 1 1, it says, In the beginning was the word, the word was with God, the word was.

00:43:59.679 --> 00:44:05.280
Was God and verse 14 says the word became flesh and dwelt among us.

00:44:05.280 --> 00:44:06.400
The word is Jesus.

00:44:06.400 --> 00:44:15.599
Revelation 19:13 says, when Jesus comes back, which is very soon, it says, His name is the Word of God.

00:44:15.599 --> 00:44:21.039
So when you look at most books, here's a book that I I have here.

00:44:21.039 --> 00:44:25.360
It's a good, it's a good book, but this is a picture of the author.

00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:27.599
This book is a picture of the author.

00:44:27.599 --> 00:44:30.960
This, the Bible, is the author.

00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:32.639
That's the difference.

00:44:32.639 --> 00:44:44.239
So when you're opening up the word of God, you are communicating, communing, listening to, hearing the Lord.

00:44:44.480 --> 00:44:47.280
And asking I have a Bible back here behind me.

00:44:47.280 --> 00:44:49.760
And it's written, it's written in first person.

00:44:50.800 --> 00:44:52.000
Oh, beautiful.

00:44:52.000 --> 00:44:53.280
What's the name of it?

00:44:53.519 --> 00:44:57.360
It's it's uh New One New Man Bible.

00:44:57.679 --> 00:44:59.440
Oh, One New Man, yes.

00:44:59.760 --> 00:45:00.960
By Sid Roth.

00:45:00.960 --> 00:45:04.159
And then I have a the Greek interlinear.

00:45:04.480 --> 00:45:05.679
It's so funny you should tell.

00:45:05.679 --> 00:45:07.440
That's the one that I showed here.

00:45:07.440 --> 00:45:08.960
This is my Sid Roth.

00:45:08.960 --> 00:45:11.199
This is uh the supernatural.

00:45:11.199 --> 00:45:13.280
Sid Roth, supernatural Bible.

00:45:13.920 --> 00:45:17.760
But if you go to if you go to a house and you knock on the door and say, Mr.

00:45:17.760 --> 00:45:20.320
Word, Jesus had come to the door.

00:45:21.199 --> 00:45:22.079
That's right.

00:45:22.079 --> 00:45:24.400
Behold, he stands at the door and knocks.

00:45:24.960 --> 00:45:29.679
And in my in my quiet times, when I'm writing, I write Jesus.

00:45:29.679 --> 00:45:31.679
In parentheses, I'll write the word.

00:45:31.679 --> 00:45:37.119
I'll write word, I'll write the word, and then in parentheses, I'll write Jesus.

00:45:37.119 --> 00:45:41.199
To me, they're they're synonymous, they're exactly the same.

00:45:41.599 --> 00:45:42.159
That's true.

00:45:42.400 --> 00:45:44.559
He sent his word and it healed them, you know.

00:45:45.039 --> 00:45:46.960
Yes, Psalm 107 20.

00:45:46.960 --> 00:45:48.320
That is so powerful.

00:45:48.320 --> 00:45:51.280
He sent his word, and you can take that personally.

00:45:51.280 --> 00:45:54.480
You know, you who are listening say, Well, I'd like healing.

00:45:54.480 --> 00:46:02.400
Well, he sent his word and healed me, you can say, and delivered me from every destruction.

00:46:02.400 --> 00:46:07.199
I like taking 1 Peter 2 24 and personalizing it.

00:46:07.199 --> 00:46:19.440
Himself, Jesus, bore my sins in his own body on the tree, that I, being dead to sin, might live unto righteousness by whose stripes I was healed.

00:46:19.440 --> 00:46:21.679
If I was healed, I am healed.

00:46:21.679 --> 00:46:23.440
I am the healed of the Lord.

00:46:23.440 --> 00:46:25.039
Well, Lorette, wait a second.

00:46:25.039 --> 00:46:27.920
I still have this, you know, this pain here or this something.

00:46:27.920 --> 00:46:47.519
No, you start instead of allowing your mind, will, and emotions to and and circumstances to dictate to your spirit, you have your spirit, the real you, through the word of God, dictate to your mind, will, emotions, body, and circumstances, and they will come into alignment.

00:46:47.519 --> 00:46:54.559
You start saying, Hey, this body is the temple of the Holy Spirit of God, according to 1 Corinthians 6 19.

00:46:54.559 --> 00:46:58.320
I was bought at a price, the precious blood of Jesus Christ.

00:46:58.320 --> 00:47:04.719
Therefore I glorify, give honor to God in my body and in my spirit, which are God's.

00:47:04.719 --> 00:47:06.480
G-O-D apostrophe S.

00:47:06.480 --> 00:47:09.679
Your body and your spirit are God's property.

00:47:09.679 --> 00:47:12.320
Oh no, what have I done with God's property?

00:47:12.320 --> 00:47:13.760
No, look at it this way.

00:47:13.760 --> 00:47:20.320
Instead, he has a vested interest in helping you to be healthy, fit, and free.

00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:29.199
Since your body's the temple of the Holy Spirit, nothing of the enemy can exist in the temple of the Most High God.

00:47:29.199 --> 00:47:49.199
Do you think that when the Shekinah glory was present in the in the temple of the Lord or in the tent in the wilderness, you know, when the when the the uh the cloud by day and the fire by night, do you think a rodent or a rat or roaches could have run through the no, nothing of the enemy can exist in the temple of the most high God.

00:47:49.199 --> 00:47:52.159
Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit.

00:47:52.159 --> 00:47:59.679
So if there are any intruders in there, you say, get out in the name of Jesus, I am healed.

00:47:59.679 --> 00:48:03.519
And then start listening to what the Lord says to you.

00:48:03.519 --> 00:48:12.960
You know, Jesus, Mother Mary, said in the wedding feast of Cana, she said to the servants who uh were carrying the ferkins of water.

00:48:12.960 --> 00:48:14.719
How often do you say the word firkin?

00:48:14.719 --> 00:48:19.039
Not very often, but they're carrying that's a lot of water, fercins of water.

00:48:19.039 --> 00:48:25.039
For Jesus to perform his first miracle, which was turning the water into wine.

00:48:25.039 --> 00:48:30.480
And she said to the servants, Whatever He tells you to do, do it.

00:48:30.480 --> 00:48:40.719
So I say that to you to believe the word of God, receive the word of God, speak the word of God, thank the Lord for it, and then whatever he tells you to do, do it.

00:48:40.719 --> 00:48:49.760
If it's for healing, he might tell you start drinking more water, start moving your body, don't eat that sugar, don't eat that whatever it is.

00:48:49.760 --> 00:48:51.119
Instead, eat this.

00:48:51.119 --> 00:48:53.119
Look at this book, read this.

00:48:53.119 --> 00:49:01.519
You'll just sense the Lord saying, you know, maybe try a different doctor, go to a holistic practitioner or something like that.

00:49:01.519 --> 00:49:04.239
Look, um, you know, on different Dr.

00:49:04.239 --> 00:49:06.960
Josh Axe or um Dr.

00:49:06.960 --> 00:49:13.840
Jordan Rubin, who is uh a friend of ours, who's a wonderful man of God, uh, who talks about health.

00:49:13.840 --> 00:49:17.360
You know, look at those kind of sources, all right.

00:49:17.360 --> 00:49:17.840
Dr.

00:49:17.840 --> 00:49:23.440
Caroline Leaf, who talks about renewing the mind and retraining the brain as well.

00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:35.199
And when you start walking with the Lord and you start walking by faith and not by sight, you'll notice bit by bit, wow, my body is changing.

00:49:35.199 --> 00:49:38.639
I'm feeling different, I am healthy, fit, and free.

00:49:38.880 --> 00:49:57.199
So if we're the body, if we're the temple of the Holy Spirit, which we are, yes, yes, well, we're the body of Christ, and we don't want we don't want to be, we don't want to make the body of Christ less, yes, because we need the body of Christ to be top-notch so they can administer healing to other people.

00:49:57.519 --> 00:49:58.159
Amen.

00:49:58.400 --> 00:50:00.079
And guidance and stuff like that.

00:50:00.320 --> 00:50:00.960
That's right.

00:50:01.119 --> 00:50:02.320
This has been so neat.

00:50:02.320 --> 00:50:05.039
We gotta we'll have to have you back on.

00:50:05.920 --> 00:50:09.920
I'd love it anytime, anytime at all, Chaplin Terry.

00:50:09.920 --> 00:50:10.960
Thank you for having me.

00:50:11.199 --> 00:50:17.360
And and and thank you for getting back the trouble we had getting on to start with.

00:50:17.360 --> 00:50:19.440
That's just that's nothing but the devil.

00:50:19.920 --> 00:50:20.239
That's nothing.

00:50:21.039 --> 00:50:21.760
That's nothing but the devil.

00:50:21.760 --> 00:50:25.199
And I used to think, well, there I got a demon behind every bush.

00:50:25.199 --> 00:50:28.239
Well, get rid of get rid of it, you know.

00:50:28.239 --> 00:50:33.119
Don't don't don't cut the bush down, get rid of the demons.

00:50:33.440 --> 00:50:37.119
That's right, ain't gonna steal my joy or your peace or our joy.

00:50:37.119 --> 00:50:37.679
That's right.

00:50:37.760 --> 00:50:43.519
Yeah, if the if the devil can't steal your joy, he can't take your goods.

00:50:43.519 --> 00:50:44.960
So don't let him steal your joy.

00:50:45.280 --> 00:50:45.679
That's true.

00:50:45.679 --> 00:50:51.519
We pray that we bind the strong man first, yes, and then we then we control him from there, you know.

00:50:51.519 --> 00:51:00.000
But I think about the other day, uh the a while ago, you said about you know dying, being buried with him in baptism.

00:51:00.000 --> 00:51:05.119
We we are buried with him with sins, but we're resurrected with him righteous.

00:51:05.519 --> 00:51:06.079
That's right.

00:51:06.480 --> 00:51:14.239
And so leave leave behind what we have been redeemed from and get into what we have been redeemed into.

00:51:14.239 --> 00:51:17.199
Yeah, there's a whole new world waiting.

00:51:17.199 --> 00:51:19.679
Yeah, if you're brave enough to take it.

00:51:20.000 --> 00:51:20.800
It's true.

00:51:20.800 --> 00:51:24.960
Yeah, the scripture that um so amazed me when I meditate on it.

00:51:24.960 --> 00:51:29.440
I've been crucified with Christ, therefore I no longer live.

00:51:29.440 --> 00:51:40.239
Christ lives in me, and the life I live in the body, I live by the faith of the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me.

00:51:40.239 --> 00:51:45.920
So that is real resurrection life living on the inside of you.

00:51:45.920 --> 00:51:48.079
That is eternal life.

00:51:48.079 --> 00:51:52.639
Oh wow, yeah, unspeakable and full of glory.

00:51:52.639 --> 00:51:53.760
Hallelujah.

00:51:55.039 --> 00:51:57.199
Thank you, Chaplain Terry.

00:51:57.840 --> 00:51:58.880
Thank you so much.

00:51:58.880 --> 00:52:01.519
Well, let's you want to close with a word of prayer?

00:52:01.519 --> 00:52:02.719
Yes, I'd love to.

00:52:02.960 --> 00:52:06.239
Please, Heavenly Father, we come to you in the name of the Lord Jesus.

00:52:06.239 --> 00:52:11.360
Lord, thank you, thank you, thank you for this precious one who's listening today.

00:52:11.360 --> 00:52:12.800
I thank you, Lord.

00:52:12.800 --> 00:52:16.159
I just stretch my hand out to them in the name of Jesus.

00:52:16.159 --> 00:52:23.280
And whatever it is that you are believing God for right now, let it be so in the name of Jesus.

00:52:23.280 --> 00:52:27.760
I invite you to cast all your cares upon the Lord right now.

00:52:27.760 --> 00:52:30.800
Give him everything that concerns you.

00:52:30.800 --> 00:52:35.920
Just cast it over on him and plant a big no-fishing sign in it.

00:52:35.920 --> 00:52:41.760
The word of God says to that God resists the proud, but he gives grace to the humble.

00:52:41.760 --> 00:52:48.000
Humble yourself, therefore, beneath the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you, that he may lift you up in due time.

00:52:48.000 --> 00:52:48.880
How do you do that?

00:52:48.880 --> 00:52:52.639
Casting all your care on him, because he cares for you.

00:52:52.639 --> 00:52:56.639
It's his job to care for you, not your job to care for yourself.

00:52:56.639 --> 00:53:00.239
You're too little, I'm too little, we're too little to care for ourselves.

00:53:00.239 --> 00:53:01.679
So give every care to him.

00:53:01.679 --> 00:53:18.719
And now, in its place where all those cares were, I invite you to receive the shalom, peace of God right now, which surpasses all understanding, that keeps and guards your heart and mind in Christ Jesus.

00:53:18.719 --> 00:53:32.960
Just receive that peace filling every empty place, and now take a gentle deep breath in and exhale, saying, Hallelujah, praise the Lord.

00:53:32.960 --> 00:53:34.719
And Father, we thank you.

00:53:34.719 --> 00:53:36.079
We give you glory.

00:53:36.079 --> 00:53:41.039
When two agree as touching anything, it shall be done for them by our Father in heaven.

00:53:41.039 --> 00:53:43.760
Are you in agreement with what we prayed today?

00:53:43.760 --> 00:53:48.159
Then it is done, it is so to the glory of God in Jesus' name.

00:53:48.159 --> 00:53:54.480
And Father, we'll be careful to give you all the praise, honor, glory, and credit in Jesus' name.

00:53:54.480 --> 00:53:55.119
Amen.

00:53:55.920 --> 00:53:56.239
Amen.

00:53:56.239 --> 00:53:57.760
Thank you so much.
