  • And so, if this is your very first time we wanna welcome you
  • 00:02:10.343 --> 00:02:13.413
  • And wanna share some things about this message for today.
  • 00:02:13.413 --> 00:02:16.182
  • So, i'm so excited about our guest who is joining us today
  • 00:02:16.182 --> 00:02:20.053
  • And i wanna be sure to introduce her properly.
  • 00:02:20.053 --> 00:02:22.655
  • And so, today we are honored to have on the "changing your
  • 00:02:22.655 --> 00:02:26.125
  • World" broadcast someone who only carries god's presence, but
  • 00:02:26.125 --> 00:02:30.930
  • Also walks in wisdom and her presence is just so memorable
  • 00:02:30.930 --> 00:02:36.936
  • And shifts atmospheres and all the great things in the boldness
  • 00:02:36.936 --> 00:02:40.974
  • And the grace upon her life.
  • 00:02:40.974 --> 00:02:42.942
  • She has a wonderful book that's been out in the marketplace, and
  • 00:02:42.942 --> 00:02:46.913
  • I'm just blessed to hear her every time that she comes to
  • 00:02:46.913 --> 00:02:50.450
  • Minister to our ladies and at our church.
  • 00:02:50.450 --> 00:02:54.554
  • And so, please "change your world" family, welcome andrea.
  • 00:02:54.554 --> 00:02:59.058
  • I wanna welcome you today.
  • 00:02:59.058 --> 00:03:00.460
  • Andrea: thank you pastor taffi for having me.
  • 00:03:00.460 --> 00:03:02.528
  • I'm really excited about being here.
  • 00:03:02.528 --> 00:03:03.896
  • Taffi: oh my goodness.
  • 00:03:03.896 --> 00:03:05.298
  • Oh this is just a special special time because i know that
  • 00:03:05.298 --> 00:03:10.436
  • God has done so many wonderful things that i believe our
  • 00:03:10.436 --> 00:03:14.774
  • Viewers will be able to relate to.
  • 00:03:14.774 --> 00:03:18.745
  • And so, we wanna spend some time just talking about grace when we
  • 00:03:18.745 --> 00:03:22.448
  • Feel unequipped.
  • 00:03:22.448 --> 00:03:24.784
  • Andrea: it's so vital.
  • 00:03:24.784 --> 00:03:26.119
  • Yes, yes, yes, i'm excited about this conversation.
  • 00:03:26.119 --> 00:03:28.454
  • Taffi: yes, so in 2 corinthians chapter 12, verse 9 it talks
  • 00:03:28.454 --> 00:03:32.458
  • About how, you know, that scripture in and of itself the
  • 00:03:32.458 --> 00:03:37.864
  • Apostle paul says that my grace--his grace is sufficient
  • 00:03:37.864 --> 00:03:42.735
  • For us.
  • 00:03:42.735 --> 00:03:44.103
  • And i think so many times we forget about the grace of god
  • 00:03:44.103 --> 00:03:47.940
  • Making us sufficient, making us secure, enabling us to be able
  • 00:03:47.940 --> 00:03:53.713
  • To do the things when we feel inequipped,
  • 00:03:53.713 --> 00:03:57.617
  • Unequipped, incapable.
  • 00:03:57.617 --> 00:04:01.954
  • Andrea: absolutely.
  • 00:04:01.954 --> 00:04:03.323
  • I remember reading that scripture and what i thought it
  • 00:04:03.323 --> 00:04:06.993
  • Meant was just like i gotta muster up this strength because
  • 00:04:06.993 --> 00:04:10.430
  • His strength has to appear when i'm weak, and it's just gonna
  • 00:04:10.430 --> 00:04:12.732
  • Bubble up some type of way.
  • 00:04:12.732 --> 00:04:14.534
  • And when he really gave me the revelation on that scripture it
  • 00:04:14.534 --> 00:04:17.570
  • Was like what i got was it's okay to be weak.
  • 00:04:17.570 --> 00:04:21.574
  • Like you don't have to quickly get out of weakness in order to
  • 00:04:21.574 --> 00:04:24.577
  • Experience my strength.
  • 00:04:24.577 --> 00:04:25.945
  • And i think like people need to hear that because weakness
  • 00:04:25.945 --> 00:04:29.515
  • Is--we just try to avoid it at all costs.
  • 00:04:29.515 --> 00:04:33.386
  • "i'm weak, something's wrong, something's not right.
  • 00:04:33.386 --> 00:04:36.155
  • God, please just let the strength bubble up," instead of
  • 00:04:36.155 --> 00:04:39.158
  • Just saying, "no, it's okay.
  • 00:04:39.158 --> 00:04:40.860
  • As a matter of fact, not it's just okay, but i need to get to
  • 00:04:40.860 --> 00:04:43.930
  • The end of myself so that you can now begin a mighty work."
  • 00:04:43.930 --> 00:04:49.802
  • And if we never understand that, we're always just trying to
  • 00:04:49.802 --> 00:04:53.272
  • Bubble something up and come on, come on, come on strength, come
  • 00:04:53.272 --> 00:04:56.008
  • On, i need the strength of god right now.
  • 00:04:56.008 --> 00:04:58.044
  • Well, it's there and it's in there in magnitude when you get
  • 00:04:58.044 --> 00:05:02.048
  • To the end of yourself and most people never get to the mercy
  • 00:05:02.048 --> 00:05:06.052
  • Of, "i cannot do this unless you do it through me."
  • 00:05:06.052 --> 00:05:09.689
  • Taffi: oh my goodness.
  • 00:05:09.689 --> 00:05:11.057
  • That's a level of vulnerability we see that like in the old
  • 00:05:11.057 --> 00:05:15.328
  • Testament, right, with david and moses and gideon and just a lot
  • 00:05:15.328 --> 00:05:20.500
  • Of the people who really were at a place where they didn't feel
  • 00:05:20.500 --> 00:05:25.104
  • Equipped for the task that--i know i didn't feel equipped.
  • 00:05:25.104 --> 00:05:28.274
  • Andrea: i didn't either.
  • 00:05:28.274 --> 00:05:30.176
  • Taffi: for, you know, going on 40 years now and i look back and
  • 00:05:30.176 --> 00:05:33.579
  • I think, "wow, that is so amazing that now i'm learning
  • 00:05:33.579 --> 00:05:40.586
  • More about his grace and recognizing that it's not about,
  • 00:05:40.586 --> 00:05:45.425
  • You know, just trying to cover up weaknesses, cover up areas
  • 00:05:45.425 --> 00:05:50.797
  • Where you feel like you're falling short or you're
  • 00:05:50.797 --> 00:05:54.033
  • Incapable in, you know, but to lean into it."
  • 00:05:54.033 --> 00:05:59.071
  • The apostle paul said, "i boast in my--."
  • 00:05:59.071 --> 00:06:00.740
  • Andrea: "i boast in my weakness."
  • 00:06:00.740 --> 00:06:02.208
  • Taffi: and we have to kind of make that shift in our minds
  • 00:06:02.208 --> 00:06:05.812
  • That it's okay to even express it and to take it to god in our
  • 00:06:05.812 --> 00:06:10.516
  • Intimate moments to express that vulnerability, express that
  • 00:06:10.516 --> 00:06:14.921
  • Insecurity so that we can realize that he wants to be
  • 00:06:14.921 --> 00:06:20.560
  • Invited in and he wants to be able to intervene in every area
  • 00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:25.198
  • Of our lives.
  • 00:06:25.198 --> 00:06:26.566
  • Andrea: yes ma'am.
  • 00:06:26.566 --> 00:06:27.900
  • You know what i found out is the biggest obstacle to that is
  • 00:06:27.900 --> 00:06:29.635
  • People pleasing because it's not that--i don't even think that we
  • 00:06:29.635 --> 00:06:32.705
  • Struggle with saying, "i just need help," or realizing or
  • 00:06:32.705 --> 00:06:35.641
  • Acknowledging, "i need help.
  • 00:06:35.641 --> 00:06:36.976
  • I can't do this," it's what we now think other people think
  • 00:06:36.976 --> 00:06:40.513
  • About us.
  • 00:06:40.513 --> 00:06:41.881
  • And so, people pleasing and needing that type of validation
  • 00:06:41.881 --> 00:06:45.618
  • From others in, you know, intense moments, it brings so
  • 00:06:45.618 --> 00:06:49.155
  • Much anxiety.
  • 00:06:49.155 --> 00:06:50.490
  • They say, "i don't wanna be weak.
  • 00:06:50.490 --> 00:06:51.858
  • I don't wanna be weak in the eyes of other people.
  • 00:06:51.858 --> 00:06:54.060
  • So lord, give me the strength right now," instead of just
  • 00:06:54.060 --> 00:06:56.095
  • Saying, "hey, i'm--guys, i don't care what you think about me,
  • 00:06:56.095 --> 00:06:58.297
  • You're gonna have a thought anyway.
  • 00:06:58.297 --> 00:07:00.833
  • I don't know this, i can't do this, i can't," you know.
  • 00:07:00.833 --> 00:07:04.637
  • And it's a privilege to get to the end of what we know, the end
  • 00:07:04.637 --> 00:07:10.142
  • Of what we've been accustomed to or learned or experienced.
  • 00:07:10.142 --> 00:07:14.747
  • It's a privilege to get to the end so that he gets to
  • 00:07:14.747 --> 00:07:17.550
  • The beginning.
  • 00:07:17.550 --> 00:07:19.151
  • It's a privilege.
  • 00:07:19.151 --> 00:07:20.486
  • And if we don't renew our mind to that, we really get like
  • 00:07:20.486 --> 00:07:25.224
  • Really frustrated or flustered in those moments.
  • 00:07:25.224 --> 00:07:27.827
  • "i'm weak.
  • 00:07:27.827 --> 00:07:29.161
  • Lord help me," and it's just like calm down, chill, you're at
  • 00:07:29.161 --> 00:07:31.163
  • The end, so something powerful is about to happen.
  • 00:07:31.163 --> 00:07:34.333
  • You're out of the way.
  • 00:07:34.333 --> 00:07:35.968
  • And we don't get--we just never get to that place enough.
  • 00:07:35.968 --> 00:07:39.839
  • I don't think we get to that place enough where our back is
  • 00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:42.642
  • Against the wall and say, "all right, there's only a plan a.
  • 00:07:42.642 --> 00:07:45.745
  • There's not a plan a, b, c, d, e," and, you know, many times we
  • 00:07:45.745 --> 00:07:48.614
  • Have so many options.
  • 00:07:48.614 --> 00:07:50.483
  • We are so self-reliant because it helps us to maintain control.
  • 00:07:50.483 --> 00:07:54.687
  • We keep control and what we can control is always gonna be done
  • 00:07:54.687 --> 00:07:57.623
  • In the flesh.
  • 00:07:57.623 --> 00:07:59.025
  • But when you let go and say, "all right lord, what--like
  • 00:07:59.025 --> 00:08:01.494
  • What's your plan in what i say and what i do?"
  • 00:08:01.494 --> 00:08:04.163
  • It is beautiful.
  • 00:08:04.163 --> 00:08:05.531
  • It's like, "i would've never thought of this way, i would've
  • 00:08:05.531 --> 00:08:07.733
  • Never said it this way."
  • 00:08:07.733 --> 00:08:09.702
  • But it's getting comfortable being uncomfortable.
  • 00:08:09.702 --> 00:08:12.972
  • Taffi: tell me a little bit about what that was like for you
  • 00:08:12.972 --> 00:08:15.708
  • Just as a young woman stepping out in ministry and just
  • 00:08:15.708 --> 00:08:23.382
  • Answering the call that we all see now, but where others your
  • 00:08:23.382 --> 00:08:29.922
  • Age who maybe aren't as inclined to make those decisions.
  • 00:08:29.922 --> 00:08:34.193
  • Andrea: it was very intimidating, very intimidating.
  • 00:08:34.193 --> 00:08:36.762
  • And i've always been like a duck where smooth on top, but i am
  • 00:08:36.762 --> 00:08:41.133
  • Frantically, you know, rowing.
  • 00:08:41.133 --> 00:08:44.070
  • Those feet are paddling underneath.
  • 00:08:44.070 --> 00:08:45.538
  • Nobody else would know, but that's--but the internal battle
  • 00:08:45.538 --> 00:08:48.140
  • Was really impacting me and affecting me.
  • 00:08:48.140 --> 00:08:50.643
  • And i said, "god, there has to be a different way and a
  • 00:08:50.643 --> 00:08:52.778
  • Different approach.
  • 00:08:52.778 --> 00:08:54.113
  • This can't be the way you want me to do it."
  • 00:08:54.113 --> 00:08:55.615
  • So, if i had an opportunity to speak somewhere or i mean, it's
  • 00:08:55.615 --> 00:08:59.218
  • Like, "why do y'all keep inviting me?
  • 00:08:59.218 --> 00:09:01.520
  • Like this is taking me through the wringer just preparing."
  • 00:09:01.520 --> 00:09:05.858
  • And he took me to this scripture, the lord led me to
  • 00:09:05.858 --> 00:09:07.960
  • This scripture and it's in--i wanna say that's in--gosh it may
  • 00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:12.264
  • Be matthew 13:11, but it says, "you need not worry and prepare
  • 00:09:12.264 --> 00:09:17.670
  • And premeditate what you're going to say.
  • 00:09:17.670 --> 00:09:19.772
  • The holy spirit is on the inside of you and he will give you what
  • 00:09:19.772 --> 00:09:23.509
  • To say when you need to say it."
  • 00:09:23.509 --> 00:09:26.145
  • So, i was like, "oh wait a minute."
  • 00:09:26.145 --> 00:09:27.580
  • So, i had to get outside of this performance driven,
  • 00:09:27.580 --> 00:09:30.349
  • Performative, "okay, i just gotta do--i have to cross every
  • 00:09:30.349 --> 00:09:33.219
  • T and dot every i so i can be perfect."
  • 00:09:33.219 --> 00:09:35.921
  • And it was just causing so much intimidation, so much anxiety as
  • 00:09:35.921 --> 00:09:40.259
  • It pertains to what i believe god was calling me into.
  • 00:09:40.259 --> 00:09:43.396
  • So, he's like, "i'm calling you into it, but the way you're
  • 00:09:43.396 --> 00:09:45.665
  • Going about it is wrong.
  • 00:09:45.665 --> 00:09:47.566
  • You're a vessel, i'm the voice.
  • 00:09:47.566 --> 00:09:50.102
  • You don't need to premeditate and worry about all of that.
  • 00:09:50.102 --> 00:09:52.438
  • I'll speak through you.
  • 00:09:52.438 --> 00:09:53.806
  • So, if you get familiar with my voice, you know it's me,
  • 00:09:53.806 --> 00:09:56.609
  • Then speak."
  • 00:09:56.609 --> 00:09:57.943
  • And so, it took the pressure.
  • 00:09:57.943 --> 00:09:59.311
  • So, that took the pressure off of it and then the other thing
  • 00:09:59.311 --> 00:10:01.047
  • Was he gave me a lane.
  • 00:10:01.047 --> 00:10:03.983
  • Like--so about three years ago at this point, he said, "andrea,
  • 00:10:03.983 --> 00:10:07.119
  • I've called you to be a mobilizer."
  • 00:10:07.119 --> 00:10:09.321
  • "what's a mobilizer?"
  • 00:10:09.321 --> 00:10:10.656
  • So, i just researched it and this was one that prepares the
  • 00:10:10.656 --> 00:10:13.092
  • Troops, one that makes one active and ready.
  • 00:10:13.092 --> 00:10:16.595
  • So, he would--and so, he began to speak into that, speak into
  • 00:10:16.595 --> 00:10:18.764
  • My heart.
  • 00:10:18.764 --> 00:10:20.099
  • He said, "you'll--there will be a stirring, there will be a
  • 00:10:20.099 --> 00:10:21.734
  • Fire, there will be an anointing to stir people up to the--and
  • 00:10:21.734 --> 00:10:26.205
  • Raise them up to the place that they're supposed to be in."
  • 00:10:26.205 --> 00:10:28.374
  • So, i was like, "okay, good."
  • 00:10:28.374 --> 00:10:29.742
  • So now no matter where i go, you can't tell me what you want me
  • 00:10:29.742 --> 00:10:33.512
  • To do.
  • 00:10:33.512 --> 00:10:34.880
  • Nope, i already have an assignment.
  • 00:10:34.880 --> 00:10:36.215
  • I have a lane, you know.
  • 00:10:36.215 --> 00:10:37.550
  • I can go, and it's 15 other people.
  • 00:10:37.550 --> 00:10:39.285
  • Hey, praise god for your gift and what he's called you to do.
  • 00:10:39.285 --> 00:10:41.587
  • I can receive from it, but this is what he's called me to do.
  • 00:10:41.587 --> 00:10:44.757
  • So, it took away all of the anxiety and intimidation, and i
  • 00:10:44.757 --> 00:10:48.994
  • Can appreciate other people and still be who he called me to be
  • 00:10:48.994 --> 00:10:52.465
  • And still do what he called me to do.
  • 00:10:52.465 --> 00:10:54.467
  • Taffi: wow that is so good because so many times we feel,
  • 00:10:54.467 --> 00:10:58.704
  • Like you said in the beginning, you feel unequipped.
  • 00:10:58.704 --> 00:11:02.508
  • I know i can totally relate to that just particularly as far as
  • 00:11:02.508 --> 00:11:10.416
  • Like our temperament because i'm more of a laid back.
  • 00:11:10.416 --> 00:11:14.720
  • I can totally understand exactly what you were saying.
  • 00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:17.857
  • And so, when i started seeing just our ministry grow and
  • 00:11:17.857 --> 00:11:24.563
  • Things start changing, i've always had a passion and an
  • 00:11:24.563 --> 00:11:28.267
  • Interest in women's ministry and just getting out, but other than
  • 00:11:28.267 --> 00:11:33.105
  • That, not so much.
  • 00:11:33.105 --> 00:11:35.107
  • Just being in public and just always been a very
  • 00:11:35.107 --> 00:11:39.745
  • Private person.
  • 00:11:39.745 --> 00:11:41.113
  • And so, when i--even when god started sharing about prestige
  • 00:11:41.113 --> 00:11:46.652
  • And going out and ministering to women and i'm thinking, "lord, i
  • 00:11:46.652 --> 00:11:52.825
  • Feel so unequipped.
  • 00:11:52.825 --> 00:11:55.694
  • Why me of all people?"
  • 00:11:55.694 --> 00:11:57.663
  • You know.
  • 00:11:57.663 --> 00:11:59.031
  • There are people who want to be used in that capacity or can
  • 00:11:59.031 --> 00:12:04.236
  • Relate so much more.
  • 00:12:04.236 --> 00:12:06.472
  • But one thing i'm learning is that he doesn't call the
  • 00:12:06.472 --> 00:12:11.343
  • Equipped, he equips those who've been called.
  • 00:12:11.343 --> 00:12:15.748
  • Andrea: that's so good.
  • 00:12:15.748 --> 00:12:17.082
  • That's so good because there's so many people that need to hear
  • 00:12:17.082 --> 00:12:19.385
  • What you just said because i wonder how many people are
  • 00:12:19.385 --> 00:12:22.421
  • Sitting at home and stuck and not moving forward because
  • 00:12:22.421 --> 00:12:27.493
  • They're just waiting to feel equipped instead of just hearing
  • 00:12:27.493 --> 00:12:31.163
  • The voice and obeying and taking the step, just walking in it
  • 00:12:31.163 --> 00:12:34.300
  • Because the thing about it, there may be people that are
  • 00:12:34.300 --> 00:12:37.102
  • Better prepared, but they can't be trusted because it's like,
  • 00:12:37.102 --> 00:12:41.106
  • "you--i know that you'll go into that space and you'll take the
  • 00:12:41.106 --> 00:12:42.975
  • Credit for it.
  • 00:12:42.975 --> 00:12:44.343
  • I just need a vessel.
  • 00:12:44.343 --> 00:12:45.678
  • I need someone i can trust as a vessel to say, 'hey, this is not
  • 00:12:45.678 --> 00:12:47.746
  • Me, this is him.'"
  • 00:12:47.746 --> 00:12:49.081
  • I remember pastor taffi, i was back in alabama and a school
  • 00:12:49.081 --> 00:12:52.418
  • Called me, and i think their violence rate was like at 96%
  • 00:12:52.418 --> 00:12:56.689
  • Rate with--and it was--they're females.
  • 00:12:56.689 --> 00:12:58.691
  • And they said, "we need you to come in and mentor them."
  • 00:12:58.691 --> 00:13:00.993
  • And i'm like, "i have like the cleanest background.
  • 00:13:00.993 --> 00:13:03.796
  • Like they're gonna look at me and say, 'like why her?'"
  • 00:13:03.796 --> 00:13:08.267
  • Like--and so, it was so many other people.
  • 00:13:08.267 --> 00:13:10.302
  • I said, "well, have you called this person?
  • 00:13:10.302 --> 00:13:12.004
  • I can get you connected here.
  • 00:13:12.004 --> 00:13:13.339
  • Like why me?
  • 00:13:13.339 --> 00:13:15.107
  • They're gonna look at me and laugh."
  • 00:13:15.107 --> 00:13:17.109
  • And within two months, it was over 150 girls from that high
  • 00:13:17.109 --> 00:13:23.415
  • School that just came to a mentor session.
  • 00:13:23.415 --> 00:13:25.684
  • So, i had to rethink and re-strategize, but i wonder the
  • 00:13:25.684 --> 00:13:28.954
  • Opportunity to touch lives i would've missed that.
  • 00:13:28.954 --> 00:13:32.391
  • You see what i'm saying saying, "oh, i just don't feel
  • 00:13:32.391 --> 00:13:34.994
  • Equipped," because the truth of the matter is just because you
  • 00:13:34.994 --> 00:13:37.062
  • Feel something doesn't mean you are or you aren't because
  • 00:13:37.062 --> 00:13:41.267
  • Feelings are fickle, and they change, and they're not a proper
  • 00:13:41.267 --> 00:13:45.204
  • Measurement of the truth.
  • 00:13:45.204 --> 00:13:46.705
  • They're just feelings.
  • 00:13:46.705 --> 00:13:48.040
  • And so, sometimes you have to tell your feelings, "okay, i
  • 00:13:48.040 --> 00:13:51.043
  • Recognize you, you're there, but this is what he's called me to
  • 00:13:51.043 --> 00:13:53.612
  • Do, and i'm gonna go anyway."
  • 00:13:53.612 --> 00:13:56.515
  • So, i mean, that was just an example.
  • 00:13:56.515 --> 00:13:58.417
  • I mean, i tried to talk myself out of that like, "please pick
  • 00:13:58.417 --> 00:14:01.153
  • Somebody else."
  • 00:14:01.153 --> 00:14:03.255
  • Taffi: i remember talking to my mom one time and i said, "mom,
  • 00:14:03.255 --> 00:14:07.459
  • You know it's so many other people who want to preach, who
  • 00:14:07.459 --> 00:14:11.430
  • Want to be on the platform, who want to--who have a word,
  • 00:14:11.430 --> 00:14:16.936
  • You know."
  • 00:14:16.936 --> 00:14:18.304
  • And she said, "no, no, baby.
  • 00:14:18.304 --> 00:14:21.440
  • That's okay, you can do it."
  • 00:14:21.440 --> 00:14:22.942
  • And yeah, just continuously and, you know, it just
  • 00:14:22.942 --> 00:14:30.115
  • Never happened.
  • 00:14:30.115 --> 00:14:31.550
  • But it's just like you said, you just have to rely and depend on
  • 00:14:31.550 --> 00:14:37.790
  • Him and he helps us.
  • 00:14:37.790 --> 00:14:40.526
  • And i'm so thankful that we're not alone.
  • 00:14:40.526 --> 00:14:44.196
  • Once we take that step, he really does show up and you feel
  • 00:14:44.196 --> 00:14:52.805
  • The confidence because he comes alongside and he girds you up
  • 00:14:52.805 --> 00:14:59.144
  • And he makes it so much easier as opposed to us trying to do
  • 00:14:59.144 --> 00:15:04.550
  • Things in our natural strength, you know.
  • 00:15:04.550 --> 00:15:07.953
  • Natural strength can only go so far.
  • 00:15:07.953 --> 00:15:09.989
  • Andrea: so far. so far.
  • 00:15:09.989 --> 00:15:12.858
  • Taffi: and i'm reminded of elijah how when he was, i think,
  • 00:15:12.858 --> 00:15:18.731
  • Running with the chariot and how he only was able to go so far,
  • 00:15:18.731 --> 00:15:23.535
  • But when the spirit of might came on him, how he outran
  • 00:15:23.535 --> 00:15:28.774
  • The chariot.
  • 00:15:28.774 --> 00:15:30.109
  • And i just believe that there may be people watching today
  • 00:15:30.109 --> 00:15:34.013
  • That the spirit of the lord is gonna come on you and equip you
  • 00:15:34.013 --> 00:15:36.949
  • To do things so you don't have to feel like you have to lean
  • 00:15:36.949 --> 00:15:40.486
  • Upon your own natural strength.
  • 00:15:40.486 --> 00:15:42.721
  • And so, don't run from your insecurities, take them to
  • 00:15:42.721 --> 00:15:45.491
  • God today.
  • 00:15:45.491 --> 00:15:46.825
  • They're indicators of where you may be weak, but he wants to
  • 00:15:46.825 --> 00:15:50.763
  • Show himself strong.
  • 00:15:50.763 --> 00:15:52.097
  • So, invite, as andrea and i are saying, invite his grace into
  • 00:15:52.097 --> 00:15:56.835
  • Your life.
  • 00:15:56.835 --> 00:15:58.771
  • Not as performance, not to perform in your own perfected
  • 00:15:58.771 --> 00:16:06.412
  • Image or facade of what you think is success or that pleases
  • 00:16:06.412 --> 00:16:11.483
  • People to validate them, to get their approval.
  • 00:16:11.483 --> 00:16:15.821
  • It's not about that.
  • 00:16:15.821 --> 00:16:17.623
  • We have to really get to a point where we're free from people.
  • 00:16:17.623 --> 00:16:22.294
  • And even if we're flawed and talk about our flaws, and talk
  • 00:16:22.294 --> 00:16:26.298
  • About our insecurities, that it's okay.
  • 00:16:26.298 --> 00:16:28.400
  • Andrea: it's okay. it's okay.
  • 00:16:28.400 --> 00:16:31.103
  • You're still usable.
  • 00:16:31.103 --> 00:16:32.805
  • You're not damaged goods.
  • 00:16:32.805 --> 00:16:34.740
  • He can use that.
  • 00:16:34.740 --> 00:16:36.108
  • He wants to use that.
  • 00:16:36.108 --> 00:16:37.476
  • You know, sometimes i think even when we talk about like
  • 00:16:37.476 --> 00:16:39.678
  • Presenting to god, we--sometimes we wanna present our best, but
  • 00:16:39.678 --> 00:16:43.148
  • We forget about even presenting our worst to him is still a
  • 00:16:43.148 --> 00:16:46.151
  • Jewel and a treasure.
  • 00:16:46.151 --> 00:16:48.654
  • And i started imagining that because sometimes it's like this
  • 00:16:48.654 --> 00:16:51.490
  • Shame will flush you that, "i have to present this to god.
  • 00:16:51.490 --> 00:16:54.626
  • I gotta talk to god about this because it's ugly and it's nasty
  • 00:16:54.626 --> 00:16:58.097
  • And, you know, i know better than this."
  • 00:16:58.097 --> 00:17:01.767
  • But i want people that are watching to renew your mind to
  • 00:17:01.767 --> 00:17:05.938
  • Say no, everything you present to your father that's good and
  • 00:17:05.938 --> 00:17:09.041
  • Who loves you is a treasure to him because he wants to take
  • 00:17:09.041 --> 00:17:14.613
  • That and then put his super on your natural.
  • 00:17:14.613 --> 00:17:17.883
  • Taffi: almost like the beauty for ashes, right?
  • 00:17:17.883 --> 00:17:19.351
  • Andrea: he wants to give you beauty for those ashes.
  • 00:17:19.351 --> 00:17:21.420
  • Taffi: because we can only bring our flawed self, our insecure
  • 00:17:21.420 --> 00:17:25.824
  • Self, and he knows us, he loves us just as we are.
  • 00:17:25.824 --> 00:17:30.362
  • And we don't have to cover ourselves up like adam and eve
  • 00:17:30.362 --> 00:17:32.764
  • Did, we don't have to say, "well, you know, as a mom, i
  • 00:17:32.764 --> 00:17:36.702
  • Don't know how to parent this child.
  • 00:17:36.702 --> 00:17:39.004
  • As a wife, i don't know how to love my husband or honor or
  • 00:17:39.004 --> 00:17:43.909
  • Submit as christ does for the church.
  • 00:17:43.909 --> 00:17:46.445
  • I don't--"
  • 00:17:46.445 --> 00:17:47.813
  • Andrea: i don't know.
  • 00:17:47.813 --> 00:17:49.148
  • Taffi: in my limited experience of knowledge and my background,
  • 00:17:49.148 --> 00:17:52.784
  • It's only so much that we know.
  • 00:17:52.784 --> 00:17:54.586
  • Andrea: and it's okay. it's okay.
  • 00:17:54.586 --> 00:17:56.989
  • That's where the self awareness comes in though.
  • 00:17:56.989 --> 00:17:58.924
  • That's where self-awareness where you have to dig deep and
  • 00:17:58.924 --> 00:18:02.194
  • Say, "okay, this is what i recognize and i'm not trying to
  • 00:18:02.194 --> 00:18:06.064
  • Fix it up so that i present it and it's perfect before you.
  • 00:18:06.064 --> 00:18:09.401
  • I am here bringing it to you.

  • Hey, god, this, this, this," and be real.

  • Taffi: yeah, it's ugly. andrea: it's ugly.
  • 00:18:14.873 --> 00:18:16.742
  • Taffi: it's not pretty. andrea: that's right.
  • 00:18:16.742 --> 00:18:19.344
  • Taffi: but he takes it.
  • 00:18:19.344 --> 00:18:20.779
  • Andrea: he--and he loves to take it because he's like, "wow.
  • 00:18:20.779 --> 00:18:22.548
  • Okay, you can't, but i can.
  • 00:18:22.548 --> 00:18:25.717
  • And not that i can, i want to.
  • 00:18:25.717 --> 00:18:29.555
  • I want to."
  • 00:18:29.555 --> 00:18:30.889
  • It brings him joy because some people's like, "oh, the joy that
  • 00:18:30.889 --> 00:18:33.559
  • Was set before him."
  • 00:18:33.559 --> 00:18:34.927
  • It gives him joy for you to be able to trust him in that manner
  • 00:18:34.927 --> 00:18:38.330
  • To say, "here are the things that i don't want anybody to
  • 00:18:38.330 --> 00:18:41.767
  • See, i don't want anybody to know, and i trust you enough to
  • 00:18:41.767 --> 00:18:45.137
  • Bring them to you."
  • 00:18:45.137 --> 00:18:46.471
  • He's like, "i can't wait to make a masterpiece out of this.
  • 00:18:46.471 --> 00:18:50.175
  • Thank you."
  • 00:18:50.175 --> 00:18:51.543
  • Taffi: he's not gonna reject us either.
  • 00:18:51.543 --> 00:18:53.078
  • Andrea: no, no.
  • 00:18:53.078 --> 00:18:54.446
  • Taffi: that's not a means to turn us away.
  • 00:18:54.446 --> 00:18:57.416
  • He just says, "okay, i knew it was there before you brought it
  • 00:18:57.416 --> 00:19:00.519
  • To me.
  • 00:19:00.519 --> 00:19:01.920
  • I made you.
  • 00:19:01.920 --> 00:19:03.288
  • I know all your ins and outs and you don't have to try to cover
  • 00:19:03.288 --> 00:19:05.924
  • It up, put a band-aid on it, or pretend like it's not there.
  • 00:19:05.924 --> 00:19:12.030
  • Just bring it to me.
  • 00:19:12.030 --> 00:19:13.665
  • I'll fix it up, i'll make it beautiful and it'll be far
  • 00:19:13.665 --> 00:19:17.502
  • Better than what you could ever imagine."
  • 00:19:17.502 --> 00:19:19.671
  • Andrea: i sense freedom.
  • 00:19:19.671 --> 00:19:21.340
  • I sense freedom from those that will be watching this episode
  • 00:19:21.340 --> 00:19:24.610
  • That are watching this episode.
  • 00:19:24.610 --> 00:19:26.411
  • There will be so much freedom just in hearing this and
  • 00:19:26.411 --> 00:19:29.915
  • Understand--like there's a light bulb that's coming on as

  • This is your day of freedom right here.
  • 00:19:34.152 --> 00:19:36.655
  • You've already been made free, but sometimes we hold on and
  • 00:19:36.655 --> 00:19:39.157
  • We've been so bogged down with all of this stuff that we're
  • 00:19:39.157 --> 00:19:42.327
  • Trying to hide from other people because we care about what
  • 00:19:42.327 --> 00:19:45.264
  • People's opinions are, but today is the day of freedom.
  • 00:19:45.264 --> 00:19:48.233
  • Taffi: today is the day of freedom.
  • 00:19:48.233 --> 00:19:49.635
  • So, we are going to close out on that note and i mean, don't feel
  • 00:19:49.635 --> 00:19:54.239
  • As if you gotta put more stuff in the closet, you gotta hide,
  • 00:19:54.239 --> 00:19:58.477
  • You gotta make it all pretty, put a bow on it.
  • 00:19:58.477 --> 00:20:01.546
  • Just take it to god.
  • 00:20:01.546 --> 00:20:02.914
  • As andrea just said, just give it to him and let him make it
  • 00:20:02.914 --> 00:20:07.386

  • God is not mad at you, he is not tallying up your sins, holding
  • 00:23:16.408 --> 00:23:21.813
  • Your sins against you.
  • 00:23:21.813 --> 00:23:23.482

  • Available to you grace and salvation through the precious
  • 00:23:27.819 --> 00:23:31.857
  • Blood that was shed on the cross.

  • That's how much god wants to have a personal intimate
  • 00:23:33.925 --> 00:23:37.729
  • Relationship with you.
  • 00:23:37.729 --> 00:23:39.197
  • He wants you to be set free from anything that has you bound, and
  • 00:23:39.197 --> 00:23:42.868
  • Then eternally, you can be with him.
  • 00:23:42.868 --> 00:23:45.804
  • So, if you've not received jesus as your lord and as your
  • 00:23:45.804 --> 00:23:48.240
  • Personal savior and you'd like to have a relationship with him,
  • 00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:52.043
  • Repeat this prayer after me right now, "heavenly father,
  • 00:23:52.043 --> 00:23:55.680
  • Come into my life, save me.
  • 00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:58.617
  • I believe jesus died and shed his blood for my sin.
  • 00:23:58.617 --> 00:24:02.787
  • Come into my heart right now.
  • 00:24:02.787 --> 00:24:04.789
  • I believe i receive salvation, and i'm seated at the right hand
  • 00:24:04.789 --> 00:24:09.160
  • Of god the father.
  • 00:24:09.160 --> 00:24:10.529
  • In jesus's name, amen."
  • 00:24:10.529 --> 00:24:13.131
  • All right, just that simple.
  • 00:24:13.131 --> 00:24:15.567
  • God bless you.
  • 00:24:15.567 --> 00:24:17.068
  • Thank you for tuning in today.
  • 00:24:17.068 --> 00:24:19.070
  • Announcer: join us tomorrow as taffi dollar continues her
  • 00:24:21.540 --> 00:24:24.142
  • Conversation with andrea crayton.
  • 00:24:24.142 --> 00:24:26.511
  • Taffi: i remember just immersing myself, andrea, when i dealt
  • 00:24:26.511 --> 00:24:30.649
  • With fear, feeling unsafe all the time.
  • 00:24:30.649 --> 00:24:33.785
  • Just stuff that triggers back from childhood.
  • 00:24:33.785 --> 00:24:37.789
  • And as a result, nightmares and all kinds of waking up in hot,
  • 00:24:37.789 --> 00:24:44.563
  • Just sweating, and i said, "you know, enough is enough."
  • 00:24:44.563 --> 00:24:50.268
  • And at some point you have to just be fed up.
  • 00:24:50.268 --> 00:24:54.839
  • Andrea: yes.
  • 00:24:54.839 --> 00:24:56.174
  • Why do i end up with the same person with a different face in
  • 00:24:56.174 --> 00:24:59.344
  • The same situation?
  • 00:24:59.344 --> 00:25:01.079
  • And he said, "there's a hole in your soul."
  • 00:25:01.079 --> 00:25:04.282
  • He said, "your spirit is complete.
  • 00:25:04.282 --> 00:25:06.651
  • It's all the truth you need, but when you have holes in your
  • 00:25:06.651 --> 00:25:09.821
  • Soul, the truth is being filtered through that."
  • 00:25:09.821 --> 00:25:12.490
  • I never felt good enough.
  • 00:25:12.490 --> 00:25:14.893
  • I always felt like they're gonna find out who i really am and i'm
  • 00:25:14.893 --> 00:25:18.763
  • Not gonna measure up to what they want.
  • 00:25:18.763 --> 00:25:21.032
  • I used to say--i used to do this thing where whatever the guy was
  • 00:25:21.032 --> 00:25:24.669
  • Or presented as, i would just adjust to that.
  • 00:25:24.669 --> 00:25:27.472
  • That's how insecure--so let's say he is into sports.
  • 00:25:27.472 --> 00:25:29.908
  • Okay, now i'm wearing jay's.
  • 00:25:29.908 --> 00:25:31.610
  • You know, let's say he's an intellectual, so now i have
  • 00:25:31.610 --> 00:25:34.179
  • Glasses and now i'm really interested in books and, you
  • 00:25:34.179 --> 00:25:37.882
  • Know, documentaries.
  • 00:25:37.882 --> 00:25:39.250
  • And i'm like, "why do i--why does my identity keep shifting
  • 00:25:39.250 --> 00:25:42.754
  • With different people that i'm dating?"
  • 00:25:42.754 --> 00:25:44.656
  • Taffi: and i would deal with that a lot of times just in
  • 00:25:44.656 --> 00:25:46.691
  • Marriage and observing myself and my response, my reactions
  • 00:25:46.691 --> 00:25:53.264
  • And just the fear and fear of being taken advantage of, fear
  • 00:25:53.264 --> 00:26:00.138
  • Of being hurt or whatever the case may be.
  • 00:26:00.138 --> 00:26:04.342
  • And so, i would find myself being on defense and it's just
  • 00:26:04.342 --> 00:26:08.980
  • Like, "okay, put the--take the boxing gloves off.
  • 00:26:08.980 --> 00:26:12.617
  • You don't have to be defensive.
  • 00:26:12.617 --> 00:26:14.419
  • It's okay.
  • 00:26:14.419 --> 00:26:15.754
  • You're safe."
  • 00:26:15.754 --> 00:26:17.122
  • Andrea: run to the throne and not the phone, you know.
  • 00:26:17.122 --> 00:26:18.623
  • And it sounds so churchy, but it's so true because sometimes
  • 00:26:18.623 --> 00:26:23.328
  • Our phone call that we make, it can either dismantle those
  • 00:26:23.328 --> 00:26:27.365
  • Feelings or validate them.
  • 00:26:27.365 --> 00:26:29.367
  • You're so far away from the power and the authority that you
  • 00:26:29.367 --> 00:26:32.070
  • Have to speak into this fact to change it and now you're just in
  • 00:26:32.070 --> 00:26:35.473
  • Your feelings, and now you've wasted a day, and now that
  • 00:26:35.473 --> 00:26:38.710
  • Day--and then i couldn't rest the night and the next i'm
  • 00:26:38.710 --> 00:26:41.946
  • So tired.
  • 00:26:41.946 --> 00:26:43.281
  • "oh i've been in spiritual warfare."
  • 00:26:43.281 --> 00:26:44.649
  • No, you've just been on the phone.
  • 00:26:44.649 --> 00:26:46.718
  • Announcer: join us tomorrow with taffi dollar.
  • 00:26:46.718 --> 00:26:49.254
