Hey guys, welcome to the portals podcast with dr. Alban Casas and anything are we and we pass the Nathan and we faster Tony Cassius will see you soon. bumble Where we blow your boy? Oh my goodness. Pasta you are rebelling again. I said portals. He said it. I heard him out of my right here. Okay, he said it with the deep breath of literally reluctantly, but I said it you said it and he was on key. I was on Kea. Yeah. Okay, I won't even go there. Hello everyone. And this is another episode of portals. I know Potter's of course. I am shinee's and we have dr. Robin Casas. Hello. Hello as the Tony Casas. Hello, everyone and Pastor Nathan Casas your pussy. Oh my goodness. I think they did only know how about if you just say hello. Hello. Hello, right. God blessed to be here. Oh, what a blessed day. It is. Come on, the religions flying everywhere. Well, let's kill it about from that. I'm last portal we had about that Independence that we can kill a lot of religion right now. That's a shark thing that you want to do Joys. Come on bring it in. Don't last thing we said, Choose to do with the straight to the point. Yeah, Tara Babel and the independence benefits there. I think you should bring that point out again. It was so good. And I think it's probably never been discussed in its fullness about in the face of God to you know, they are so good. They used pitch as mortar and cooked bricks, which is first mentioned in in the Bible of like a kiln of clay bricks, but the intention was that if it if the world was to flood again this city and its wall and Tower would be water resistant or waterproof. It was a type of rebellion / independence from God because they all said let us make a name for ourselves. Right? And so the onus was on them and not God anymore. I mean, it's so sad that the human race. Default to this Independence when you know when they're given Freedom, you know, we talked about freedom and freedom was always used by the human race to inflict and to rebel and not to actually go forward with God. So it's very sad. I think they wanted to reach him. Yep, you know touch him reach him. You see call this your man's efforts again wasn't it was but even more than that it Was like, let's be on the same level. Mmm. No, she was nakedness is not transparency. And that was really the transparency really exposes everything inside and out to God and to people oh Jesus, so I'm to yourself. Yeah. So a lot of us are afraid of being transparent because we fear our nakedness inside will be revealed. So we cover our souls with these little lies or these things that you can uses. Yeah a little fig leaves. We got to bring the live audience in on that one. Can they introduce themselves? Yeah. I was about to say your name and put you on blast Independence, but you know what? Yeah, I mean, it's interesting because you guys talked about the independence from being close to God and not just the usual quote-unquote that we hear from is like being from the side of rebellion. Yeah, because in the beginning Inning it was that way it was never as against God. It was more that to be like God and then it went from being like God to being God we start to go to be like God, you know and work with but then eventually with Independence you will end up wanting to be God give you a job. I got a pocket already. He has get them ready because so it's like the enemy takes their desire to want to be like God which is a good desire in the sense of you know, yep, but then it gets skewered and screwed up because we want to be like God but without relationship, you know, it's what it's that. It's that power without the presence, right? And that's when the independence can come in because if we truly want to be like God then God is a god of relationship. He's never independent that even mean. Yeah, so I was always like God you got to had the reflection of God and he's not a solo prophet and he's not a solo person he relies and he uses people and he uses even just the godhead the Trinity, you know, they never work independently from one another. You know, you said that in the last guest imagine just imagine You know when we get to heaven God's going to be jealous because people were worshiping the Holy Spirit not him. No, that's not going to happen. They work together. They the greatest team that ever was there was nothing independent about the godhead hashtag trending. Nothing independent. They were here to make up the will of God. Hashtag got team. So will I say it again? Did you get that? Did you get that past? The Tony just told me to stop he's trying to tell me. A to stop being myself be still I'm not going to be independent. I'm gonna be myself then I'll get all of the fullness of God. Now, we need to Independence button because it's not Independence going on around here in these streets. I can tell you or these churches. Oh, wow. So we picked the subject that could keep us going for a long time. Yeah, but we're not gonna go too long because we're going to take a break and then come right? Hey guys. Want to hear God speak to you personally, then join us here at dipping night. It's every first Monday of the month at 7:30 p.m. To find out more information or to RSVP. You can visit us at dipping night dot torque. And why c.org? Hope to see you there. Will you blow your mind? I had to change it up there. I see we're going to get the other side to hold it. We have a live audience here. They not alive their flesh is burning They're All Dead. Oh you are the portals. Maybe we'll hold it out this time portal. Nice. Thank you. The jazz version. No, no. No, we're not even two Jet's we had a hip hop. Ready? 1 2 3 but yeah, thank you. 92 out do the actual right already. Did the artificial don't have the real your Independence was in? Oh was in full effect you missed your cue. I'm just kidding. Anyway, we're back and of course, we're still talking about this independent Spirit, which has been very interesting because It just has been why because I was about to choke because I was manifesting its deliveries for this reason. Even three times. One, two, three, where we get. All right. Here we go. So any home? Yeah. I I do have a question about this whole independent concept because like say as a parent, okay, Jesus is our father, right and you know when you're raising like a toddler, I don't know from prior experience. Just from you know, having visuals. We are raising a toddler in their learning how to do things on their own, you know, they build confidence in doing it themselves. So for instance, if you tell a toddler like how to tie their shoes or whatever if he's very Advanced, you know, he builds a confidence in a relationship of like learning how to do that by himself. But how is that different from? Kind of being independent from the spirit even though because you were saying how we're still closer to God so saying we heard a word or whatever and then we start going on the route of Independence. How is that kind of different things? Hopefully, I gave a good analogy. I think it what you're doing here is confusing two words from Independence to ended up being an individual. You must never lose your individual hit that shit. Because you're unique. Wow, okay, we're not talking about something that's negative here when you're talking about being an individual God created you to be an individual. He said he before you were formed in your mother's womb. He knew you he knew you personally inch and every one of you he knew you personally so you see he created you so if he Dude you why you trying to take over you can't do what God's already done. You had nothing to do with your creation. Nothing and I hit that baby here and we were talking in the sub portal about and I'm not going to steal it. I'm going to set it up for you. And then you're going to add and we were talking about going to be a supplant know and we were talking about this brings up the truth of the scripture. Which we keep quoting on this portal because the load is emphasizing. No not before you were formed. I knew you and I created you. Yeah, and I called you. So here you're saying aye I mean ownership. Mmm. He's the owner. Yeah. Okay. So when we become an independent person, we are starting to take part of the ownership. Mm-hmm. That's good. That's good. That's a good key it. Can you see is that Jay past deep go for it. Now how deep well, it goes to motive again. Yeah and what your life is centering around, so I think that's very important because again, Jesus is example Someone who lived the life completely for someone else his father. Yeah, so it has to go down that deep and obviously the holy spirit's leading us all down that path because that's the only time you bear fruit. When you're doing the father's will and I think that we need to come back again just touch on it very lightly but touch on it. It's the probably one of the worst sins. It was the the sin in the beginning that started this whole journey hmm him falling being independent and then from independent he went to wanting to be the one. Yeah, so He just didn't want to I will have a say he wanted to have all say yeah, I think the rebellion of Lucifer is is Manifest by the fact that he wanted to be greater than God, and he also wanted to take the position that was not his to take being a created being he's not honoring the Creator by trying to overtake the Throne of God, really. Like we said earlier, he's own Beauty and wisdom his pride led to deception. This is a characteristic. Also self-deception is really rampant in some of the churches because they start this separation from the rest of the church think that the character is where the generation of got the truth. And again, it becomes an independence and not an interdependence on the body. Yeah. And so I think that's another form of rebellion actually, but even more it can be we always say in the dependence on the body, but where's our interdependence on God? That's it. That's it. Yeah because it's more than just an interdependence on the body. It's an injured dependence on God gee that was a mouthful. Yeah and and sun god without me you can do nothing. But that's what Jesus said or how many of us actually live that. I want to jump back into that because the Lord has brought that to my mind that scripture. I think the key what you said is we won't actually embrace our full individuality that show without including the one that created us. Yeah, when we try to embrace individuality independent from the one that created us, we're not getting the fullness what we talked about last week because go on because he said without me you can do no thing nothing. You know thing at all like and I know that the Amplified actually can go right in there. It says nothing at all, you know, nothing that even the mind can conceive. So I think some of us Christians we get into the habit and we get into the the false identity of well, you know my individuality and then I'll add God into that. No, no you find individuality from who he is Fitzy individuality has already got God in that's the key that's already got got it. Dependence hasn't got God in there you see but I think we need to see give you know, why don't we eat quickly surrender mmm, because it's like a threat if we give over to God and let him be the one that we depend on. Okay, people say well, you're a cripple or you know, you're crippled my spiritual crippled, but if you are a cripple, you need someone to lean on come on. I'd rather be a A cripple. Yeah, and look I'm talking about the real thing. Yeah once crippled that's right and totally healed of it. That's right. But what I'm saying is they turn around and they always have a fear attached to if if there's Not My independence here. I'm losing my identity. Well, you shouldn't have an identity your identity to cry. Oh, that's burning and I think Duality because this is really hitting me. I'm really now the portal is opening in my head that the thing that you said about I could see the hell. Yeah, you can see it's pouring it but something that you said is really unlocking something in me. Even my individuality is still an expression of his individuality in me. It's not even it's not against Cano be exactly like some he gave this. This some he gave that even though that's an expression of who I am. It's really an extension of who he is individually through me yet because we made in His image. So he is an individual yet because we said on the other portal, you know, not one fingerprint alike. Not one sand on the seashore alike. Not once no fake alike. That's because he is so, you know recreating his character in individuals all the time, but different emphasis different facet of it. So when I try to embrace who I am as a person without him. Mmm. I'm just going to go around that mountain. I think we need to get the fact that God there's only one God. So here we are. He's the unique and he's the individual there is no other gods before him he is and so therefore this shouldn't frighten us. Yeah, that's should bring such security to us. Hmm, you know that God. You know wants to be that one that you depend upon. Wow. It is to make your crippled by the way. Mmm far from it doesn't make you weak. That's just me. Oh, you're very Meek. Yeah not weak and it doesn't make you cripple. It means that he's already ordered your steps. You just walk in those steps, you know, you know, I know we have a choice that we can make we can make choices. But you know how many times have we made the wrong choice? Yeah, I'd rather give the choice over to the one that's knows me better than I know me and that he can make the right choice and I could get the benefits from the right choice. Amen. No sighs well that I live audience asleep everywhere. Say 1 2 3 - sing properly do it with sound is a says taking a turn for another Direction in that note. We'll be right back. Hi everyone. We are excited for the soap All Season to commence with life-changing courses that will deepen our relationship with Jesus starting Saturday, October 5th. Dr. Robin. Cassis will kick us off with counsel by God. This course is so powerful to help heal emotions and memories and learn to let Jesus be the wonderful counselor of Our Lives you will be renewed with hope and Life as we learn to let God turn the scars into Stars sign up now by visiting so and why dot-org Well, we blow your mom why we lifted the pitch. Come on, I'm changing they're dead. They're dead. They're just said it's all your flesh God. Yes, baby. Yes. I lived on Ian's have now deceased I do when I need a resurrection. There is a crowd here. It's for people that sounded County 7. I can't about that's it possible that you know, what 7 you just said that crap you said you Camp 7. That's how much Vision you've got. I think we're all at zero. I'm hanging the shade on you because you try that. Come on. I'm counting all the angels that are there we go. Yeah, come on. We gotta be religious. They look at how much is in that Crowd Oh, Oh my goodness. So before before we you know Departed the break, we were talking about distinguishing the difference between individuality and Independence. Yeah, that's so good. And of course we step forward about it. It's just interesting. You know, what you said was kind of mind-blowing. I'm trying to wrap my you know, my brain. Around it, you know being an individual and not feeling like daughter trying to rob me of that. No. No he created you seem created you in the image of him, but he is so many facets the one you know, he's like a diamond, you know any created you the same way with that that that ability to be able to turn that diamond around there are different facets of that Dynamic you never see Same brightness. She never seen the saying excitement coming out of it. You never see the same. Do you understand what I'm saying? Each every time you turn that diamond around. Wow. Look at that side of the diamond. Look at that sad look. Oh and it never ends you see and he made us that way so that made sus have in be an individual with uniqueness. That's so good that you're That because the diamond can't find its unique, you know, prism and of reflection without the light and who created the diamond in its rough State. Yes in coal and then the pressure being put on it comes this incredible very precious stone that man loves I love to win them all over my fingers. We know all got to have a weak link another weakness. It's a it's a It's a good thing. Yeah, bling bling. Yeah, it's a good thing. It's a good thing. And so anyhow what I saying about this the facets of the diamond is so unique and he made us that way so that when you look at something it's never boring. It's always unique and you're an individual have such parts of you that only when you turn do they shine like this and the problem Um with that Shania is that we try to make our children. In the image of us and that will definitely cause problems and Independence, but if we give them an individual uniqueness, then we can see all the potential of what God has made. So am I right in saying that we are that like the Diamonds? Oh, are you writing multifaceted? You know, you sure cut cut and every kind of, you know cut basically every type of form when the light shines through us. Stuck in the light shines through the diamond as we turn it there's different things expressed different fat come forward, but the diamond can't be independent To Shine by itself. It has to have light coming through it to show those different facets. Well, let's go back again. Can't be independent. All right. This is a visual. Mmm who made the diamond in the first place. What did you just dig it out of the ground? Can you go and dig and diamond? That is just ready. No shove it in your ring. You know that comes out as a big gemstone. I got it. Yeah times but Cole it's like a cold starts off of school. I believe yes, it does under pressure and heat it's the transforms into what we call the diamond Stone. So it's a black thing. It doesn't have any beauty to it. Sorry. No, no problem. God chose black for Cole no matter how do you understand? Then you're saying the word black is actually a redeemed word. So let's not own it it's redeem for God. Okay, so I just want to go back to this just to get a visual that that Blackstone okay is just doesn't look that interesting. But when the pressure comes on it, oh, wow. You see what comes out of it is so unique still clear and crystal clear and so much an individual. Oil, so that means that the the two diamonds by the way are the same are the same. So that means you said the pressure that means the circumstances of life that are in our lives are there to bring out the fact that your reality? Yes, so we should stop letting circumstance be the be this voice that you know, is this woe is me and realize that why is God allowing this in my life. It's to bring out the facet of YMS, he shines through me and who he is in me and Independence will not bring the diamond to its full potential. Hmm. The pressure of that we bring upon ourselves makes our Diamond not Flawless. We become having flawed sin us. So am I right in saying even our circumstances have an assignment on our lives? Of course they do of course to do something in us and bring out something from us, but we immediately Idiot lie, I totally agree but we immediately instead of working with those things. Yeah, we run God and then you see I'm not speaking dependent because I can't give up my identity. Well, what identity do you have exciting Christ Jesus? Excuse me, who made you in the beginning? Yep, who formed you before you were in your mother's womb who gave you Daddy his identity. There's not your identity and his identity when you're walking down the street and you come in the shadow of something bigger than you. You cannot going to find you anymore. So, you know you walking along the street and You See Your Shadow and wow how this me. There's me, you know get carried away with ourselves looking for me. And so then you come into the shadow of this massive big cut skyscraper. Okay, can you find your Shadow whether it's gone? It's been overshadowed. You've been overshadowed by the best. Yeah, that's good one that made the skyscraper which brings us back to your question that you were asking during the portal about, you know, like the the glory and the honor. What's the difference? Yeah, because if you are being overshadowed because you know, sometimes I feel and I'm sure people listening can feel like, you know, there's some contract like contradicting statements. It's in the Bible like, you know, like we're told don't take the glory but then we're also told don't defer or deflect pray, you know. Yeah. So where's the fine line between that how do we how do we not deflect? You know the honor that God wants to allow people to bestow on us, but then also how do we not become prideful and accepting all that honor and I know that Pastor Tony and pass the room going to elaborate on that because that's a really good question because we using words here and making them sound the same. Mmm, so we went from the word independence to being an individual ya think that they had the same working. They do not write the same with take the glory glory belongs to the God because got to God because he creates it. He create it. Wow, why gets the glory? Wow the Praises from him. Yes to the people not the people to the people. Maude braces ask for alibied deviance and l l honor where he honors us, but the glory belongs to him. The glory has got to be to the one that created all things very wow. Wow, so let's not keep mixing. These were so many times in our Christian walk. We get these words. We think they mean the same but they sure don't mean that The same, you know, it's a lot of Christians that beat themselves up sometimes to feel like oh, I'm just you know, they do the deflecting of like Oh Praise Jesus or you know, whatever just to try to show that they're not receiving the glory for something someone. I think that's morphia. Mmm. It's more fear that God might honor them. Wow. Wow. Oh wow. Let's unpack that because those same Christians probably deep down as saying I wish someone would actually affirm my effort but they've Selected for so long you add a fear of moving into you know this. Well what they don't even know what on Earth from the Lord really looks like because they've got their Visual and they think that if I will if I accepted then again, it's this Independence, they're actually believing that if they accept it then they're putting themselves on the same level as God, you know, that's quite a high to think like that. And that's ridiculous. Yes. I'm going to be straight with you. That's just delusion. That's demonic. It's delusion to the The mutt to the most yeah, you cannot put yourself on the same level as God. So Church stop trying you cannot wow. You cannot go and make me somebody walk on water. You drowned yourself rickets. Yep. I'm serious King Kingdom now theology. Yeah, but it's almost the we are God's kind of thinking to yeah. Yeah, we all know the truth to it. Now we had God. Right, he's gone clarify not he's God in us. We keep changing the standard. We keep changing the rules. We keep changing the words. Why don't we leave it alone? Stop doing it and enjoy being an individual and a unique person that's been made in the image of God. So you're saying don't deflect the affirmation don't deflect need the encouragement, but That except the glory. Yeah Glory can't be yours. That's when it will turn into pride and Independence and that's when we come back again we go back to the beginning That's what Satan wanted. He accepted. The he wanted the glory. He wanted the glory. I will Ascend I will be like the most I've got I've got all these angels that fell with me. I deserve to be in the same place you are on the same level Jesus, but he forgot He was a created being wow. I'm listening. So in depth as well. I can't give you the gym and you guys are sleeping. I've been holding onto your I know I've been you know, I must have to apologize. I wasn't giving you all your gems you were so you wait, it might hit him three times in the portal. That's the glory one. I said why is good and that's the creation one. There you go. But that does that answer your question? I think it does. Yes. It definitely is showing me like how I've heard and how sometimes in my own life. I've received those things as being the same thing glory and praise is the same thing, you know Independence and individuality is the same thing. So, you know that separation that Clarity is I feel like is will be useful in this portal 200 help listeners. Also understand. Well, it isn't let me just You say example of David David dumb, you know, he was a man after God's heart. Yeah, so that was God praising part of David that he created. Hmm. Okay, but he wasn't going to give the glory to David for doing it who uses you have to see this yellow see it GW was good after my own heart. So the emphasis was not David Wright was on God's hat. Mmm, that's good. And he was going after that you see so there it is. There it is. And you know, we need to see don't keep lumping words together. Yeah. Okay. Don't do that. Independence is really it's harmful. Whereas in big in individual. It's not harmful, you know you dropping them tonight. Like praying in tongues wrapped. Ahahahahaha all of that. Yeah feeling better now. Yeah. Thank you Patrick. I mean jihae in this room. Yeah, and then we should head that pizza is a little. Oh, yeah. The list is ID. There's a Christian comedian and he will grew up in a Baptist Church and he was never an option I worried but he was never allowed to pray in tongues. So he wanted to get the holy spirit so much that he went on YouTube. Tube and he started listening to learn how to pray in tongues and he just thought to himself one day. I'm just going to combine all these words together really really fast. So he said hey you want to peel a banana? He just started say words really fast like buddy tow. It candle candle is desperate to hear. Yeah, like he told he couldn't hear the spirit in his church. So he just thought he just had all these fast words. He's like, I'm just gonna join all these vowel sounds together. Yeah. It was in faith, right? That's the Tony wasn't intended. Oh, that's a nice religious. All right, well, Let me go bunch of bananas. Let me go kill off this religion. We'll be right back. Hi, everybody pass tonight here again.

We embrace it in tongues. We don't want to interpret it. That's a task of its own, you know, anyway, so we're going to go ahead and play the first can I tend to read the book play and don't write a book.

This is meant to bring out what's in US upload it to you. We've been downloading from heaven. So if you're going to ask a question ask a question, well Endeavor will endeavor to answer it. We don't know at all. Nope. We're not know-it-alls, but maybe experience alone at all's well. Learn it all I'ma use that one. Maybe we're experience life as Christians a little bit longer. So maybe Been seasoned with thyme. All right. So we're going to go ahead and play the first sound bite of this question. Okay, let's do it. How can I tell when I'm being independent versus interdependent while being in a relationship with the Lord? Hmm. That's a deep question. I think we getting date now. Don't you dare? I think this listener is asking for warning signs. Yeah, you know a barometer of how do I tell when I'm being independent on myself and relying on myself that self-reliance and then how do I tell when I'm actually moving in inter dependence upon the Lord and the Holy Spirit? So what's a barometer for that start? We cast the Tony I'm with some spiritual guidance. That would pass the Tony no drop a few gems here then. I think I think if we understand that we don't have everything we have the fullness of God, but God is not going to manifest that fullness without others being involved. So I think this came up in the last portal, how how do I become an individual stay as an individual or knowing part and we prophesy in part. All right. I think Pastor addressed this in the last portal it's to do with our approach. All right. So if we if we realize that what we're reflecting as far as God's gifts and character is affecting everyone else. There is a part of the you know, the relationship between Christ and ask that will always get from other people. And so that that's a good way to understand that you're not walking wholly and solely on your own. But you do have a need that can only be met by someone else in the body of Christ. Yeah, I think that's the interdependence we're talking about. Yeah, I think you to maybe just make it a little bit clearer and maybe less complicated. There's some more because I don't think I answered that question to soak a couple of keys here Independence Independence versus In dependence or Independence versus interdependence? Okay. One thing here is the word I was going to say that ah, yeah, I is a beginning of Independence. I was going to say that examine your speech. Yeah examine your thoughts. Do you thought start with i all the time? I think I want I desire I feel I need I need. III was it started? I will do you know if your thoughts are always starting with I yeah, it's then independent you are living independently. Yeah, and if your words are always starting with I and if you if your actions are always I do so, I think I think what the interdependence will be. It will always center around others and God where is independence? Center around you, right? I think one thing I understand maybe Pastor Yan so clarify Paul Paul said, you know imitate me as I imitate Christ. So I don't think he meant cloning yourself to pour like and don't want you to clone him. He was saying to follow his example of good deeds and you know and conduct so we don't want anyone to clone anyone else you can. Can't be anyone else because the way God is like every chromazone and every part of your body is unique and it's the same in the body of Christ. Yeah. So even in our attempt to mimic someone or clone someone it can never happen really ultimately because it's not in your DNA. God has made everyone. Let's go individually understand. Yeah. We need to go back to the first conversation. I will Ascend yeah. Who said that Lucifer Lucifer? Okay. There's a sign of Independence. Hi, I will Ascend I will do this. I will work this out. Yeah, I will reason this through I was said in the beginning and it's being said every day in a church. Well, so is incredible, I think another thing and I'm just going to quickly add. Don and then we'll move on to another thing that I know the Lord is saying I'll say is also when a sign of Independence is when you think you know yourself like I hear people telling me all the time in conversations. Well, you know, I'm this kind of person and you know, this is the way I process and this is the bubble though. I like and they realize you don't know. Yourself is fake news as much as God knows you fake use interdependencies. Well, I believe this about myself but I'm ready for the Holy Spirit to show me something new. Yeah. Yeah, it's Maybe I'm Wrong hurry. It's a discovery. So another sign of Independence is are you ever wrong? You come back to sometimes? I think you'd come back Independence when you say I am the conversation. Ian's closed. Mmm. That's a gem that someone already has that if you don't make the eye the beginning of your conversation if you don't do that and that you let God show you hmm, then you're going to be ended dependent on what is shows you. Sorry got to put my hands up for that one. Yes. Oh Jesus and also little y'all going you could give me a double whammy with this one. You're going you're going if you allowed the inter dependence upon the body, then you will allow God to use that part of the body to show you what it's doing who follow I had mine 20 cents worth. It's actually please can I leave the room look a little put their hands up and I found it very hard to ask for help often. I'll take on a task very hard to to I find that Old Goat into a task. That's beyond me and tell myself. I can handle this, right? You know, I mean get halfway through and think I can't handle this but I'll continue in it and trying and prostrating myself because I think I just don't like asking people. Hey, I can't do this. Can you please help me? And so this is not good for any of this really this stage. Has another character is fraud of Independence. That is what he said. I will find it hard to ask for help. All right, so the only time The song of we're here here this one. The only time we ask for help is when we can't do it. Are you two saying instead of asking from the beginning when we can do it? It's the last thing when I can do it. I still need your cheese. I got the visual Bell my Lord. Wow, if we would ask for help, even when we are able to do it inning Jesus not halfway through no more one-night-stands guy. Wow, that was a good. I think we need to go next question. That deserves us to go the next question. All right. Is there an obstacle that got insert for the lady that I asked? All right. This one is another one. Let's play the sound bite. My question is I'm wondering if there's a negative side of Independence as in like with like the pride. There's a false Pride are like false humility is the like negative form of Pride and I'm wondering if there's a negative form of Independence as well that can show up in a feud be able to speak about that. Well ended in dependencies negative, but it It doesn't look negative because in the beginning you have to see where it was first located and it wasn't as as a negativity in the beginning it became negative. But yes, there is very much the characteristic of a pride in Independence and very dangerous lead you down the wrong path lead you you know this. This is saying that if you don't feel close to God guess who Moved he doesn't ever moved that deliverance. We got we move coming out but I said before he instigated the move to hold us to do all these things so he doesn't let go even when we let go, you know, so we need to see that that's important. I think I'll jump in here too. I think that question really refers to the negative side of that. It is being when you think that because that means if you're asking for the negative and there's got to be a positive side to Independence. I think that's where we mix it up. And we think that the positive side of Independence. Is that obviously done exactly. I think that we think that it's that individuality. Yeah, and so mixing it we want to see that individuality is where God wants us to, you know forward go forward and go through it and find our individuality in him by him through him. Yeah, but the negative side of that is independence from him. I think. Yeah, and I think whoever there was that asked the question you need to see the difference between Independence and individuality because in when you are independent, it's you when you ended when you are an individual person. Yeah, you're not doing your thing. NG you're doing his thing. Mmm. Wow, I think the in the independent you're getting with a girl you getting rid of you listening. I'm quiet, but I'm listening. Mmm. He Paul, you know, when he says not that we are sufficient in ourselves. He says that nothing self-sufficiency is a big part of being independent you think your sufficient within yourself to do? Rudy's that either God or you think you can do and so even Paul with the great, you know walk with Christ that he had. He makes the statement not that we are sufficient in ourselves, but our sufficiency comes from God so he understood that like past has been teaching us, you know, he could do nothing without without Christ doing it and he forever says that, you know instant quote that scripture, you know, I can do all things. Things that was directly after he said I've been through shipwrecks. I've been through starvation of the American people has nights. I've been through persecution. I can do all of that when Christ is doing it through me. Yeah, and I chose more in the context of endurance rather than you know taking on tasks that are Beyond us and I think Independence let's look at individuality and that is It's causes you to lose your identity. Wow price but being an individual you never lose your right and so good in Christ. That is so good. God does not want to take away your identity because the team Christ. Yeah. Yeah. They do you want to make a new identity through being an individual? Yeah apart from him. Well, I mean I look at Nebuchadnezzar King Nebuchadnezzar and he believed his own height, you know to the point around believe your own advertisement. Yeah Ali does own hype he believed his he wanted not he didn't want just the you know, what was it affirmation, but he wanted the glory. Yeah, you know and look what You went insane as when not created to hold that Glory. We definitely were not created to be a carrier of Glory except to carry the one who is glory in us. That's why in any situation when we are put in the face of people and we become you know, that figure whether it's a an artist or you know, a politician or a pastor when we start taking Glory we sharing it. It's that lower form. Into that higher reality. Yeah. Remember we mentioned that we are not created to hold the lower reality of Glory accept the higher reality of Glory that we are created to create. Sorry created to hold and our house is he's the Glorious one living in us and therefore all glory all power all honor all praise goes to him. But I mean we've seen time and time again when Christians begin to hold Glory it corrupts them Tow and they end up more alone. Then when they started totally totally and you're right, we're not called to carry that Glory except to channel it. Yeah, we channel the Holy Spirit. Yep. We carry him. He's we are his Temple and we are a vessel a channel for that glory and the presence and the power of God, but you see you can't mix yours with his wow. That's crazy. Z he what I just said people did you hear what I just said? You can't mix the two together. They don't mix. It's like oil and water. It just doesn't mix. Okay, at least the lower and the higher because we were trying to fix the created to worship something that doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. What we're doing is my doesn't matter what we're doing. We're always worshipping something we work whatever I give my attention, whatever I give my She is whatever I give my um, you know my energy to whatever I sacrifice to get that's my worship and and you know, you were right we are we were created to worship. Yep something. So if you're not going to worship God you're going to worships. Exactly. Well, you're going to worship the devil bet you can't not worship something because that's the way you were created. Yeah. That's the key. You're a created. You likes this table is created to whole thing. Yes. We were created to worship. He made us are worshipping vessel. Yeah, but that reason I mean, there's people out there worshipping sports teams. There's people out there worshipping arm, you know artists there's people out there worshipping Lifestyles. There's people out there worshipping nothing or is worshipping tree. There's people out, you know, there's people out of tree a hug. There's people out there that are just you know, and I'm not passing judgment because I don't want to be a hypocrite but there are people out there that worshipped the lifestyle of having everything that you know, What's up, the lifestyle of just working 9:00 to 5:00 on the week and having the weekends and worship family, whatever we getting our affection and our attention to is what we worship. Yeah, I'm serious. But he's a little thing here, you know, people want to hug trees Lord Jesus watch the bugs Don't Hug the bunch of other aspects of spiritual battle bucks. Karen doesn't like bugs about life. I don't like to somebody really bugging me to them led to get the bugs to bugging me. But one thing back to the topic no offense to your joke. I appreciate it. I'm gonna kiss the tree and make it feel good. It's all that was the stuff. We were saying about worshiping no Lena, hype the hype. No the Antics we were talking about Chris go. Yeah the 18th. That's that's a lot of different things. No, don't don't give me some to gimmicks. That's the way I'd stick on step on a cockroach in might be your grandmother. Come on step on a crack break your mother's back. But anyway, but which interesting I think when I'm taking away about independence to there's a form of inadequacy in it, because if you don't realize that's a bad, you know, you need a channels I get again. I promise make sure it's in your pockets in my pocket. Yeah, I just really feel like you know, we become independent in ways of trying to fulfill the inadequacy within us not realizing that we are encasing, you know, the Lord within us we don't realize that so we always beat ourselves up to try to work up to that. You're trying to glean. Something you already have but you're also being independent by trying to work towards getting that very thing when you have it. Well, I think that's what I've been getting out of just hearing everything in addition to the pride in addition to all the other characteristics. We've bought out tonight. Yeah. I think that one was standing out the most for me. It's like okay there's in that in that adequate see their don't know okay me in the nod your head Pastor Robb and I don't know just maybe either I know what you doing. No with the perfect. Independence is separation because that's where it leads isolation. She and you know what? He's the key. Jesus was not independent. No, it was never separated except when he went to talk to his father. So therefore if we are made in the image of God, we've shouldn't have independent Sinners period Blank purred. So I want to bring in something quickly here as we bring it to a close because I know we're going to bring it to a close. Is there any more questions? No, that's it. What sometime question time is over. Wow. So next time they can bring in a just reminding our audience members next time they can get on the ankle wrap and sending their messages for each episode. It doesn't have to be a specific episode whatever but I will answer it as the topics come up and it's going to be good because that means now the church is not going to be ending because they've got it. Wow, although Jesus we're settling down where I sucked it for. It means slut I think slut would have been a better word don't you know, it's an inward with the church and I know please don't go there sucking you tell me Rising. Let me bring out a couple of things just quickly before we close a sign of no Independence. Is just this past week we baptized over 30 people. Yay. Some of them are new converts. Some of them are returning, you know, children behind the prodigals and some of them are established people that have been walking in faith, but they wanted the reality of you know, that deeper revelation of being baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. And so we just wanted to let our church family know that listen and also those that you know follow us online. We are so privileged that these people have taken this step. Faith and God provided an amazing day. He provided an amazing way for us to do it and we were able to prophesy into all their lives and it was just an amazing testimony. We were so excited to do it unless you're change did there were tears flowing and we saw change and and that that was very moving very touching to for people to feel and I don't go by feelings. You know that Chanel. But this wasn't true deep feelings inside where you could see a release from their Spirit more so than their soul it was being processed through this Soul if you know and you could really see Godly emotions coming forward. Does he gets all the glory that is not forget. He gets on the glory honor and praise and of course you have listened to another episode of my by now.
Coming off a powerful week with our Annual Season Casting II, we didn't want you to miss out on your weekly portal experience. So we wanted to share with you a special episode that was originally meant to be released but never actually got published. In this bonus episode, host Shenaya Annise jumps back in with our senior leaders -- Dr Robyn Kassas, Ps. Tony Kassas, and Ps. Nathan Kassas -- on the final segment of living free from independence. After a lengthy conversation on such a hot subject, the portals team close us out with such a powerful truth that brings the answer to the question, "If we are not to be independent, then what are we supposed to be?". Our team takes us through the journey that leads us out of independence and into the answer...Individuality. Be encouraged, as Dr Robyn releases the revelation that independence will rob you of your individuality -- the very thing that makes you unique. God has made everyone of us unique and by allowing ourselves to fully depend on Him, our true identity and individuality can be fully realized. While we are not to be independent each one of us has been called to be an individual, and it's in our individuality that we will see the fullness of God manifested as we rely totally on Him to reveal our unique gifts and callings. This is gonna bless you to the point where you will be singing, "Snap, Crackle, Pop!". Let the download begin!
