Hello, friend, Chaplin Terry Warner here.
00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:52.560
This episode is titled Beware of Quitting.
00:00:53.200 --> 00:01:03.600
It's season 2025, episode number 52, and it publishes for podcast on December 31st, 2025.
00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:06.879
At 1 o'clock in the morning, if you want to get up.
00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:17.760
Your foundation scriptures are Philippians 1, verse 6, Philippians 3, verse 12 through 14.
00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:25.599
Every day in 2025, if you've been reading with me, you've been planting seeds.
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:35.200
I kept a daily journal of my Bible reading, and in a year's time, I will have read through the entire Bible by reading from Genesis to Revelation.
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:46.959
My daily journal at the beginning of the page, I use a spiral a spiral notebook and the title has been Come Alive in 2025.
00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:48.159
How?
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:50.480
By planting seeds.
00:01:51.840 --> 00:02:07.760
In addition to reading through the Bible, in addition to reading through the Bible, I then listened to podcasts, read biblical books, and continue to fellowship with the Holy Spirit during the day.
00:02:08.719 --> 00:02:16.800
We are now getting ready to enter a new year, and the seeds you have planted in 2025 are going to need watering and care.
00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:22.879
And by that's done by applying the Holy Spirit's power over the seeds you have planted.
00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:28.080
Maybe you have been watering your seeds as you planted them last year.
00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:32.159
Maybe you're going to make seed planting a priority in 2026.
00:02:33.120 --> 00:02:45.360
However, if you have been planting seeds every day of your life and not realize it, a lot of your seeds are ruining the good seed, a lot of your bad seeds.
00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:49.280
But the seed may be lying dormant in the ground.
00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:54.800
Your heart, in other words, and is waiting on some spiritual watering.
00:02:55.759 --> 00:03:03.439
This spiritual water, provided by God, and in a lot of situations, the spiritual power is the words of the devil.
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:13.680
Either way you are watering and nourishing your planted seeds every day, or you are burying them and letting them die every day.
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.960
The seeds don't quit existing.
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:20.000
The bad seeds bring about bad things.
00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:22.719
The good seeds bring about good things.
00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:26.159
Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.
00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:34.159
So what comes out of your mouth without you thinking about it, without you saying about it, it's what's in your heart.
00:03:34.479 --> 00:03:35.759
So what's in there?
00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:37.280
Gun smoke?
00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:39.120
Soap operas?
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:41.280
Social media?
00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:43.439
What's in there?
00:03:43.680 --> 00:04:02.319
I tell you, social media started out pretty good, but now it has just become a a a magnitude of evil and bad thoughts and violence and and killings and pushing and misfortune and we laugh at it and everything else.
00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:05.599
Now you can't pray for all that.
00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:07.439
It'd be nice if you could.
00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:09.520
Maybe change some of it around.
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:11.759
But you can affect your world.
00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:13.599
And that's where you need to start.
00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:23.920
In 2026, you need to start watering the seeds or the bad seeds that you've planted, you need to start digging them up and getting rid of it.
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:26.240
Get rid of foul communication.
00:04:26.399 --> 00:04:27.759
Get rid of anger.
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:29.279
Get rid of hatred.
00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:30.879
Get rid of prejudice.
00:04:31.120 --> 00:04:32.959
Get rid of all that stuff.
00:04:33.439 --> 00:04:34.240
Lying.
00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:37.519
The only difference between Oh, this is hurt.
00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:41.199
The only difference between murder and gluttony is a comma.
00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:43.360
Stop and think about it.
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:51.040
Jesus Christ died for you so that you could live a righteous and right kind of life.
00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:54.399
Listen to this.
00:04:55.040 --> 00:05:00.079
My son or daughter, attend to my word, God's word.
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:04.000
Consent, consent, and submit to my saints.
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:07.040
Let them not depart from your sight.
00:05:07.279 --> 00:05:14.879
Keep them in the center of your heart, for they are life to those who find them, healing and health to all their flesh.
00:05:15.199 --> 00:05:18.720
That would be hearing, seeing, feeling, smell, taste.
00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:23.360
And let us also add in our mind and our conscience and our words.
00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:45.600
Keep and guard your heart with all villages, and above all that you guard, for out of it, out of your heart, the bringing out of the words and causing them to come to pass, flows the springs of life that is needed for your words to come to life and fruition, completeness.
00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:55.759
In other words, if your words come out of your heart are good and kind and and and praying for people, you're going to have a good treasure.
00:05:56.000 --> 00:06:04.480
If your words are anger, hate, rage, frustration, you're going to have bad seeds, and you're going to have bad fruit.
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:08.000
Stop and think about that, and I'll be back in just a minute.
00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:56.560
Put away from you false and dishonest speech, and willful and contrary talk put far from you.
00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:04.319
Let your eyes look right on with fixed purpose, and let your gaze be straight before you.
00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:11.120
Consider well the path of your feet, and let all your ways be established in order to write.
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:15.600
Turn not aside to the right hand or to the left hand.
00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:18.160
Remove your foot from evil.
00:07:18.399 --> 00:07:25.920
Proverbs four twenty through twenty-seven amplified, and I have a little bit added in there for emphasis.
00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:38.720
For those of you who did not plant good seeds or failed to comply with God's laws, ask God to forgive you and start your journey new with God right now.
00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:54.000
All things have been entrusted and delivered to me by my Father, and no one fully knows and accurately understands the Well, let me back that up.
00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:55.759
Hang on just a second.
00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:57.839
Alright, let's try this again.
00:07:57.920 --> 00:07:59.120
I had a typo.
00:07:59.839 --> 00:08:09.839
All things have been entrusted and delivered to me by my Father, and no one fully knows and accurately understands the Son except the Father.
00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:20.720
And no one fully knows and accurately understands the Father except the Son, and any one to whom the Son deliberately wills to make him known.
00:08:21.040 --> 00:08:27.839
Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden and overburdened, and I will cause you to rest.
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:31.519
I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls.
00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:48.879
Take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for I am gentle, meek, and humble, lowly in heart, and you will find rest, relief and ease, and refreshment and recreation, and blessed quietness for your souls.
00:08:49.200 --> 00:09:04.559
Jeremiah 6 16 Amplified For my yoke is wholesome, useful, good, not harsh, sharp, oppressing, but comfortable, gracious, and pleasant, and my burden is light and easy to be borne.
00:09:05.120 --> 00:09:08.000
Matthew 11 27 to 30.
00:09:08.879 --> 00:09:10.000
You get the idea.
00:09:10.639 --> 00:09:12.080
Plant good seeds of love.
00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:15.200
Be kind, be compassionate, be considerate.
00:09:15.840 --> 00:09:16.960
Put others first.
00:09:17.759 --> 00:09:24.480
Jesus first, others second, you last spells is an acronym for joy.
00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:30.320
Let's make twenty twenty-six a year to remember, not a year to regret.
00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:34.240
You have a blessed day in Jesus' name.
00:09:34.559 --> 00:09:34.960
Amen.
00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:48.320
00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:52.560
00:00:53.200 --> 00:01:03.600
00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:06.879
00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:17.760
00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:25.599
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:35.200
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:46.959
00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:48.159
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:50.480
00:01:51.840 --> 00:02:07.760
00:02:08.719 --> 00:02:16.800
00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:22.879
00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:28.080
00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:32.159
00:02:33.120 --> 00:02:45.360
00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:49.280
00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:54.800
00:02:55.759 --> 00:03:03.439
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:13.680
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.960
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:20.000
00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:22.719
00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:26.159
00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:34.159
00:03:34.479 --> 00:03:35.759
