  1. O blaeth the Lord heaven. Have you wanted to obey the Lord? I

  2. appreciate my son. Amen. They't so glad to be in the house of

  3. our father's spiritual father, heavenly Father. Thank you, pastor talking right now

  4. about being molded and changed. God give me this message. Last Sunday night

  5. he got up here to talking about I'm hammering at this and God immediately spoken

  6. to my heart. My heart started raising and burning the fire. So I

  7. don't take it lightly as an honor to be in this whole bit. It's

  8. a serious thing and there's nothing to play around with, taking my burthen serious.

  9. And I'm certainly thinking for my father that I've got such a man of

  10. God teaching me how to raise my kids. I'm still under his subjection.

  11. He's still my father. I still take the beauty and correction through him as

  12. a father and as a pastor. I'm twenty two years old. I don't

  13. mean nothing. I still have to listen to him. Still be obedient,

  14. don't not being rebellious? Is my honor to be a son of his God.

  15. Love him to death. Thankful, thankful that God borned me into this

  16. family, giving it him. Have y'all enjoyed that preaching, But yes,

  17. wonderful I enjoyed it. If you have your Bibles turned on me to Isaiah

  18. chapter number fifty four, verse sixteen. Once you read this, you'll understand

  19. God's gonna speak to someone tonight. And most of y'all, most preachers know

  20. this. Whenever God gives a message to someone to preach, it's for us

  21. too. We take it to heart too, just as much as it is

  22. for you. It's for us God. Whenever I started reading this and God

  23. start working on me, I started myself getting challenged and convicted and realizing,

  24. God, I need to do a better job. We haven't. Please stands

  25. for the reason of the word. Right here it says, behold, I

  26. have created the skin that bloweth, the coals in the fire that bringeth forth

  27. an instrument for his work. And I have created the waste to destroy This

  28. here is talking about a blacksmith. Blacksmiths mold things. Pastor before I got

  29. up here preaching to talk about being moaned and brothers down. So let's pray

  30. and ask God to help us here. God help me the cloud cloud God,

  31. God not to say anything. Hope you happy to say God all you

  32. have to say nothing. I don't want to say anything, but I'm not

  33. the poster war God. I ask the poor Christian berry Lord and challenge our

  34. hearts God, and be going to us. We be sure enough. Pray

  35. Lord and Jesus thing, pray man and they man. This here, Eliza

  36. said, is talking about a blacksmith, and how many of y'all been through

  37. the old mill and in Tennessee at the blacksmith shop where you you see the

  38. men work in the metal. It's an awesome thing, but it's a hard

  39. work. It's hard work. They're over top of colds hot furnace and hammering

  40. is back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. It's a

  41. process to get the reward. But they stay with it. They stick to

  42. it because they know what the end goal is gonna be. And I pray

  43. that we'll be challenged tonight to take heed of this. I really feel like

  44. God has given me this netses for fathers and their sons who are raising future

  45. fathers. I had a strong burden about this when I began to pray about

  46. it. And as fathers, we are the blacksmith of our children's lives.

  47. God's placed them in our lives that it's our job to make sure that they

  48. are becoming what God is wanting them to be. That way, they are

  49. whatever weapon that he has need of, whatever type of tool that he has

  50. need of. Blacksmith, they create everything. And in the Vile Day,

  51. that's what it was saying, is he's having to create something in order to

  52. get some work done. So he's having to put forth work to even begin

  53. to work. And as fathers, we got to do the same thing.

  54. We got to put forth some work to show our sons how to work.

  55. That way then has passed on from generation to generation, from one man to

  56. another, not raising slawful sons, but working sons. And I know that

  57. God is gonna do something here tonight. I just pray that we really get

  58. with it because God's given them into our hands and their He's a metal that

  59. we are for me that God said, look, I'm giving you this.

  60. Now you have to take control of this. Yeah, I know God is

  61. the ultimate blacksmith in my life. But my father played it a very important

  62. role in my life. And as fathers, we have a very serious thing

  63. that we have to take in account. That is nothing to fool around with.

  64. I don't want my son to be left behind, you know. And

  65. when rebellion sticks up that I forget to hammer that out, I don't put

  66. it back in the fire when it's starting to cool down. I got they

  67. gotta go put it back in the fire to heat it up again, because

  68. if they don't, when it pulls down, it's unfinished. And whenever they

  69. go to put it back in, if I get a crack in it,

  70. don't let it cool down. When that rebellion sticks up, it's time to

  71. strike on that handle. There's something called a cutting a cutting table. If

  72. you forget to use the cutting to cut out that rebellion, that stubreness,

  73. that one that pussed up against you. Whenever us fought with use kids,

  74. Whenever your parents say no, what does that mean? That means no.

  75. I'm sick and tired of seeing these pop fathers having a to pretty much present

  76. a court case to their children between a touch and a jury on a list

  77. of reasons why they said no. No. My father said no, it's

  78. not mine. You need to think, well, why not? Why can't

  79. I do this? God said no? My father said no, he know

  80. that I do. It's not your job to question the authority in your life.

  81. God did not give you the hammer to hamry outsore lives. He gave

  82. it to your father. You ought to be in subjection to him. You

  83. are to be motive by his Hannah, not to kick against it, not

  84. to fight against what he has, but to do and to submit to the

  85. angle, to submit to the hammers, to submit to the fire, because

  86. just for the well being of your thought, the're gonna shielding to the water

  87. you and if you are, you repel it and you get they're gonna do

  88. that things day because you don't no mission, starre not on a social mission.

  89. Yes, the blacksmith have the problem. Come up along the way my

  90. bus and Mike crack. But they're persistent fathers. I know I'm young,

  91. but I'm a father too. I'm preaching it myself, So don't get me

  92. wrong. Don't give up on your medal. Whenever they when they forget to

  93. struggle, I began to struggle. This man never gave up. And take

  94. your no what it's out of my hands. Yeah, it was out of

  95. his hand. But he went to God and said, how do I strike

  96. this? Where is the pressure point that I need to it? That way

  97. is moted the warmth is knocked out of there, it begins to be straight,

  98. it's strong again. I need you to show them how to be Amanda.

  99. Don't show them what a quitter looks like. Then. I grew up

  100. my whole life watching my father. Whenever he sent his mind to do something,

  101. he's finished it completely. Sure, it might have took it a little

  102. while, but he was persistent. He was constant, always there, going

  103. back to the problem because he knew if he didn't do it, then it

  104. was just a waste of time, a waste of track on a piece of

  105. trash. But you can't give up on your issue that you have. Your

  106. children need you to stay faithful and persistent. Rested a little harder until he

  107. saw the warp in the metal began to straighten out. He began to get

  108. down on his knees and say, Lord, I know he has an issue.

  109. I know from experience, as I've already said, I know what it's

  110. like to be struggling. But I had a father that was faithful, that

  111. didn't give up. So don't give up on your children. You get that

  112. metal hard enough and it begins to glow hot enough, it's motivle. Keep

  113. putting them in the furnace. That that's what it takes. You know what,

  114. you know what a furnace is, bend them over the bed. That

  115. might be your hammer. That any way, you got to break that mold.

  116. You got to break that stubborness, because they'reficially gonna spend your face whenever

  117. you telling to do something, they say no, you do it. I

  118. would have got jack slapped across the face if I said guy as a kid,

  119. Oh really, but I'm just saying, I would have got tore up.

  120. I would have got tooken into the blacksmith show aka the bedroom, and

  121. got through any more war out till I realized I walked out just too exactly

  122. in by leading us a hammer to the anvil must move him to be o

  123. beat up and to submit to the hammer into the fire. Father, don't

  124. back down, stand your ground and found that hammer. Get that man off

  125. until it becomes part of the angles. If that's what it takes in order

  126. for you to break that can tell you STU be preak that stubborn hot to

  127. engage that abuse. Sons and daughters, don't get angry, and then it's

  128. what you need to make you into what you're supposed to be. I'm getting

  129. sick and tired of that backing down to their kids and their sons and say,

  130. you know what, it's my duty has a father to raise him.

  131. Pastor said it to the church. You didn't know if you're in my lives

  132. and they saw him in the gaming room, it's in my note pact.

  133. That's the same thing, GOP speaking. Someone. Don't throw them in the

  134. gaming room and STI technology be the father of him. I'm gonna put outward

  135. and twist it, but he ain't. Kids. I stood dunk the stools,

  136. and your father throws them in there, and let that figure out.

  137. For tell, yeha, throw a kid in the rooms, they're gonna come

  138. out warped in the mind, warped in the heart. That is why we

  139. see the children in this day and age, the way they are walking around

  140. with headphones on. Don't even know what the outside world is. I grew

  141. up outside of the house. I don't know what it's like to be grown

  142. up in a bed room with the door shut, headphones on my ear,

  143. the pleasing two for Fataday, that games a belt day. Me and my

  144. brothers, even my sister grew up running an orange groves and chest deep in

  145. mud. It's a miracle of God. We didn't get some kind of disease.

  146. We had a mud hole and our eight acres. That excavator got stuck

  147. in. We'd like to get in and jump off into it and it'll be

  148. literally chest deepen the Granted we were little kids, but the miracle of God,

  149. we didn't get smothered in that stuff. But that's my childhood thanks to

  150. a father I never saw him. You know, let me need to s

  151. go here and send this repliner. No, you say, hey, y'all

  152. want to go do some fishing. Hey, let's go do this. Let

  153. me spend a little bit of time with you. It's in put it that

  154. you take them somewhere. Don't get something tall up and worked that you say,

  155. you know what I provide for him, that's good enough. Yeah,

  156. it's good. But you got to spend time for them because they need someone

  157. to fit it. They need to look at the time. We want to

  158. say all that time, I'm supposed to act and that's not what I'm supposed

  159. to do. Fathers. Take them fishing, take them honey, take them

  160. out to hen. I don't care, but do something to him don't the

  161. storm in the room. If they figure it out, their kids gonna be

  162. your grandkids. And you're gonna say, God, if you most disrespectful kids

  163. I've ever seen, I'm your grandfather. You ask that monster. You refuse

  164. to take the planet. You excuse to say no. What you here is

  165. hamm, give me up five? You mean an handle? Go into the

  166. black man, bleve me to work on you a little bit paraphrasing, everybody

  167. says the bosses shall left forward to his own, bring his mother to shame.

  168. Also bring he follows the shames. Preaching to myself, I got the

  169. marrything I need to work on. I know that. But the difference is

  170. God showed me, and I said, God, I gotta do it.

  171. I don't want to raise the monster. I don't want to raise someone who

  172. has picked by faith. Whenever I get older and I need someone to take

  173. care of me, and then they think, you know what, you didn't

  174. take care of me. You let felon. You know what, here's your

  175. own medicine. Go find yourself some help. Oh God, Dad knew that

  176. rebellion was the reason the worping than when the metal began to cool down,

  177. when stubborn began to kick in, and I can probably just about say that

  178. I was raising a home that whatever you know, the world says, once

  179. you're eighteen, you're on your own. You do what you want to do,

  180. no love else. I was never raised with that mindset that once I'm

  181. eighteen, I do whatever I want to do. No, that's the life

  182. and the pits of hell. You're eighteen, but you're still a child.

  183. You're still not mature. Have you paid bills for years on yours? Do

  184. you know how to balance a budget? Do you know how to discipline yourself?

  185. No? In fact, the case you would have been born an adult,

  186. you were born as child, because you have to be raised on how

  187. to react, how to act, how to respond to pressure. We got

  188. some of these people at work, this new generation of kids, whine about

  189. everything, have a little thing, you're running to the boss. They asked

  190. me, why don't you report it? I don't care about it. That

  191. there is you, It ain't mine. I was raised with tough hide.

  192. If I got a problem, I go to the sort before I got whine

  193. about it. Don't tell them and your father gets on to you, don't

  194. go mama, mama, mama, daddy said, Dad, Daddy, Candy.

  195. Just think them about it. You know who's took him out. He

  196. wouldn't do that, says go leeping. No, don't do do around your

  197. back. That's in your mama. Well, that's one of the worst whippings

  198. you ever received, because you know what most mamas do. Hey, did

  199. you tell so and something? No? Yeah? I said, no,

  200. tell them to come here. Oh man, this is the world's worst thing.

  201. We got in trouble with when we would ask our cousins, Hey,

  202. don't ask that if you could stay the night, oh man, because I

  203. thought it was more likely to say yeah if they asked. We didn't know

  204. what to ex back, Susie, walk in the door, go to the

  205. bedroom. Oh, we thought everything was okay. Walk in the door.

  206. Did you tell someone so to come? Ask me? Yes? Didn't I

  207. tell you not to do that? Yeah? You did? Oh man,

  208. what a waman at you asked? I learned the hard wood you wait to

  209. get paidback. I'm just kidding, but it's a part of that. We

  210. don't forget to use our hands, I said. Then we wear one every

  211. day. Oh, very easy accessible one. Natalie just got the belt introduced

  212. to her life yeah, I don't hit her hard or so don't know.

  213. But now to the point where if she kicks against me or she vokes her

  214. mama, all I have to say is do you want to go get that

  215. belt? Go, sir. Immediately she's a perfect she understands what's to come

  216. with that bothers. That's the problem with most generations. These kids were both

  217. they've never seen what's the belt? They just about all about it. Well,

  218. you're supposed to wear it around your pants, that's what it's for.

  219. Yeah, I imagine it's some of these people. You ask them in the

  220. world, they wouldn't know what it is. Oh, God remoted precious metal

  221. that has the potential and the ability to be used in the service of God

  222. only if we molte it correctly, only if we present God as sword.

  223. God is shiny, and said, Lord is strange, it's sturdy, and

  224. it's strong. That is ready for battle. My friend, don't you they're

  225. the black men. They have a quenching process. It's not your job to

  226. quench that sword. It's God. Just say, you know what. They

  227. are ready for the next phage. They are ready for you. Let God

  228. use the quention. Don't you make that decision on your own. It's God's

  229. choice, not yours. You're the black man. You're in charge of raising

  230. hell, you're in charge of discipline. We need to teaching to be obedient

  231. to the leading, the goddance of God's voice, day in, day in,

  232. day out. And we need to know the right moment to strike.

  233. Strike while the middle is hot when it's told it won't do nothing but make

  234. it mad. It'll only provoke it. The Bible says, balls don't provoke

  235. your children to wrast. You hit at the wrong moment. It's the wrong

  236. moment exactly you'll hit it. The hammer bounces my back off. I've seen

  237. it. Whenever they fly hammering force, that's still. When it's hot,

  238. it bounces higher. But whenever it's soft, it's motival and it's platable.

  239. That intention meets his market, and that metal molts and it begins to stay

  240. where was hammered. To add the right pressure and add the right power.

  241. God's giving you the strength as a father to be more of a man than

  242. they are, to add pressure at the right pressure points. Whenever they start

  243. out with making the sword, it might be a big old ball bearing some

  244. sorts, just a round ball. They'll put it in that that that furnace

  245. come out glowing red. They might get three three good whites out of it

  246. with that press before it has to go back in the process is worth it.

  247. Our dad had to mold five boys to be men, all in an

  248. account that makes you're his daughter stay like a woman. He mentioned that.

  249. I know that, but that's also God had told me to say the same

  250. thing. It is possible. You don't have to raise him the same.

  251. You don't need a girl that's half boy and a boy that's half girl.

  252. It's possible. We're point proven right here, my brothers and my sister.

  253. She's full blooded girl with full blooded boy. There ain't no daying us got

  254. in the power God and boom Man before he's gonna raise the finantition a pure

  255. blooded boy thanks to a pure blooded man. That the importance it's worth.

  256. In a bad, bad shape, some bad shaping. Maybe we go into

  257. ward. We're gonna be in trouble. Got a bunch of cowards in there.

  258. And the first shots sounded, they're gonna be running for the hills.

  259. Now, imagine as soon as they touched the ground, they're gonna be running

  260. for the nearest tree, a bunch of cowards, all thanks to fathers who

  261. gave up on their children, said all, they'll figure it out. Maybe

  262. that video game will show them how to fight every one of them. School

  263. shooters. They go to a place where there's unarmed children. They know there's

  264. gonna be no resistance, no resistance fathers. They go to who they think

  265. is the weakest. They go what they think there's least resistance. If you're

  266. you're the man of the house, you're supposed to have the most resistance.

  267. You're supposed to know, you know what, you're supposed to have enough God,

  268. and to be able to tell them, I should have followed my gun,

  269. I should have something to what I said. Regret it's sure to be

  270. followed. Whenever you don't stay in the back of your mind, you know

  271. the whole time. I should have stayed with what I said, because then

  272. you know what, you spend the whole night worrying, Oh are they okay?

  273. Are they okay? I don't know. Maybe I shouldn't have it.

  274. If you thought so much that you should have it, then you shouldn't have

  275. if you're not one hundred percent sure to know. I know there's times when

  276. us boarder brothers had asked catify, because do something I just don't feel one

  277. hundred percent comfortable with it. Sure, it let us down, but we

  278. knew not to challenge him, and over time. Actually this church experience said,

  279. not long ago, it's on Wednesday night on past said, I keep

  280. feeling started right, toldus will go on and pray. All right. It's

  281. the same example. Children, your father said no, they might be regretted,

  282. and you might be granted. Pastard almost got his door jerked open by

  283. some man. The same thing can happened to you. Father. I'm telling

  284. you stand your ground. Don't you back down? Yeah? They coming to

  285. you with him, pumpy dog guys. Oh, Daddy, you know I'm

  286. your favorite. You're my favorite. I love you, daddy. You're sure

  287. to regret it. I can promise you you'll love it afterwards. Now you'll

  288. be standing in front of their caskets saying, oh, I love you.

  289. Why didn't I say no? I knew I felt that bit in my stomach.

  290. I knew not to go with that. I knew not to shut them

  291. into that room. I knew to take the fission. I knew the extended

  292. opportunity to come watch dad work. You regret it, I promise you.

  293. I'm thankful for a father that knew what it was like to say, hey,

  294. boys, I want to go run some hawks. We didn't have pastors

  295. to really hone. Well, we did, but a lot of times we

  296. didn't want to ask no one because Dad wanted the only to be him and

  297. his sons. Right, you know how he ran hogs out of a diesel

  298. truck, running them on the side of the road. We'd pull up on

  299. the side of the throw the dog. Now, that was the best time

  300. of our life. We see more hogs in than we ever did in the

  301. pasture. Right, those are precious memories that I'll never forget. I hope

  302. them, dear to my heart. Fathers, you have to make memories for

  303. your children. Pastors said the other night, they're gonna tell your story.

  304. Here I am telling his story, telling my story. My son's gonna tell

  305. my story. I got good memories. I got fond memories, y'all.

  306. I remember all the spankings. That's what made me into the man that I'm

  307. not feeling something great, man, But that's what made me into the man

  308. that made me ready to become a father. Because now I too know what

  309. it's like. I've experienced it. I've experienced it. I know what good

  310. it does. Sure it cost a little pain, but it's worth it.

  311. Proverbs thirteen to twenty four says he that spareth his rod hate if his son

  312. you don't get to put him? You hate that belts got dust on it.

  313. You hate he ain't never darken the doors of your bedroom. You hate

  314. him, You ain't never stan thun. Let me talk to you. You

  315. hate. According to the Bible, you not sposy. If the tur lass

  316. you might have don't know a had a child, you might as well put

  317. him up for a daunt. Spect I got straighter, some one who will

  318. love you better than you. Stead up care for Get on, throw out

  319. the rod. If you're gonna spare it, ain't no use to you right

  320. out, get rid of it, because if you got it, you're always

  321. gonna see. I know I should have done it. I know I'm supposed

  322. to use that. If you ain't gonna use it, it's no use to

  323. you. If you ain't gonna love your son, it's no use to you.

  324. I don't know what it's like to have a father don't love me.

  325. Thank you for worth it. The whoop was worth it. Lets me know

  326. that he didn't hate me. I told my mom the other day, I

  327. never understood that's saying this is gonna hurt me more than it hurts you.

  328. There's sometimes I say, oh, that ain't true. But no, I

  329. too know what it's like now. Oh man, when they start looking at

  330. you, yeah, lips pooped down, eyes welled up. No, daddy,

  331. it's tempting. It's very tempting. It is the back of my head.

  332. I gotta know. That's small. Sure it might be a little cute,

  333. but whenever it gets older, oh, it's gonna be an ugly sin.

  334. Say, rebellion is the sin of witchcraft. Witchcraft, that's a hard

  335. sin. Rebellion is the same You want your child to be a witch because

  336. you refuse to take down rebellion. He that spareth his rod, hated his

  337. son, but he that love with him, chasing to him be times,

  338. multiple times, over over and over again. Hey, don't do that.

  339. Then, I tell you, no, don't wait until it's too late to

  340. take out the hen and apply force to the inbling. They needed to be

  341. voted now. If you don't vote them, the world would gladly say,

  342. hey, we got plant. You let us moult, you let us mulsha.

  343. They'll be turned into something. But will it be out of what you

  344. aren't supposed to be producing out of your blacksmith's shop? Would that be a

  345. sorn in God's hand? More sight and the devils. The devil will use

  346. the fourth side, but God can use the fourth thought. I think that's

  347. how you pronounce that word. I don't know, but that's that thing.

  348. Now you see the grim reaper hold signifies something that kills. Devil would love

  349. to make another killer might not be physical, but they say something just slaughter

  350. a wounded one. We all raising children here together. My kids are watching

  351. the fanias kids fan kids watch. Everybody's watching everybody. So if they don't

  352. do their part, my kids are gonna see that and every butt me even

  353. more because they think, well, I'm when the Faniel's kids are doing it,

  354. that's gonna happening. Brother, I promise you. I'm just using that

  355. as an example. Our kids watch yours, Your kids watch ours. So

  356. parents, it's hard job to come up on the same standard. It's all

  357. pastors, pastor and all pastors, and future is hard talk to do.

  358. The thing's been talking. For all, we're raising children. You refuse to

  359. correct, another parent might get the idea to do the same thing. It's

  360. important that we stay on top of an issue. We don't say I'm gonna

  361. deal with it later. I'll get to it whenever I have the time.

  362. No, the time is now. The metal is hot. It's hot with

  363. rebellion strike it beout that wark. We're forging fathers. That is the tide.

  364. I forgot to give it. Forging fathers. I'm forging a father,

  365. you're forging for him. They're gonna copy me me. I'm copying him,

  366. and my son's gonna copy me. We're gonna act the same kids, hopefully

  367. the same respect. I wanna say something real quick. The disrespect goes on

  368. to this world. Man, I'm a twenty two year old man. I

  369. start paying to when I realized that I've acted you when he said yes to

  370. my dad, I'm scared. Look sit oh, man. If I send

  371. a text and I realized they did say sir at the end of it,

  372. oh, I'm quick to say yes sir. I mean yes sir. I

  373. don't want any to think that I'm getting respecting him. I don't want to

  374. complim in that line, still bad, Why fucked your bad? You though?

  375. You no man, it's gonna come out. Oh you are thought.

  376. It's no matter still the day who died? This man and brother? How

  377. my brother jib even talk about me time? That a different, But it's

  378. all know about your man. Mother. Sorry, I don't care how old

  379. you are. You're on your God gotta still your time. Still hell.

  380. This means to be respected with the utmost authority. He is our father.

  381. Don't you kick against his rod? Don't you kick against his amble. We're

  382. fortunate fathers, the next generation of fathers. If we all keep raising our

  383. kids the way this world is, we're gonna have babies as fathers. If

  384. they don't leave a kid to us own. Now I know this is already

  385. happening. Where's babies being born and they're leaving them for dead? You're leaving

  386. your child for dead. Whenever you don't come back and you don't stay with

  387. it, you don't redew that God, what would be the outcome of the

  388. motive your child? Once he's been through the furnace, once he's been on

  389. the handle, will it really be a scythe that's an ugly looking thing.

  390. It's a creepy looking thing. Whenever I was in prayer about this, I

  391. can't see that a sword shiny by crazy and the handle was made of gold.

  392. I pray this to give them a child and I a sword that God

  393. is proud of. Wild say, this is a sword that will pierce the

  394. hard finds his mark. It hits them where they need it. Right will

  395. they find out? Lord, Lord, Lord, I have rebellious. Lord,

  396. forgive me the sword that can be wielded by the hand of God.

  397. That's the big sword. But God to do it. You can do it

  398. by the help of God. God is forcing you. He is voting you.

  399. He's putting you on the pressure. He's putting you in the fire.

  400. He's putting you to the animal. Don't despise it. Share. It's a

  401. little painful at times, but it's working. It's what works I heard all

  402. my life. Father, like son, Your kids are gonna feed us like

  403. you, whether it's daughter or boy. Fathers, it's your job too.

  404. You have a hammer and anvile too. You're not out of this, dollars,

  405. You're not out of this. This is you too. Focus and may

  406. your father's a son because it's me that the responsibility of my child's has been

  407. placed on my wife's too, primarily mine. Don't forget your dollars, fathers,

  408. they need just as much work. Oh man, Because my daughters are

  409. sweet, I have to be careful. That's a weakness. I love them,

  410. love them both, all of them. Why do you think this generation

  411. of fathers is so messed up? Because fathers just give up, walk away.

  412. It's not my pride. Here's a three thousand dollar game. If you

  413. see, here's some vulgar games, or learn how to be a man.

  414. Stare at his creak for eight hours straight and they come out and they wanted

  415. to while of their kids were wearing glasses, phones in their face constantly.

  416. Because it's an addiction. It's an addiction. If you don't break that mold,

  417. rebellion will become an addiction. Jealousy will come forward. Go get cracks

  418. in your sword, O get weak, warped and frail, a sword not

  419. worthy to be wildered in the hand of God. And my brother's in a

  420. bedroom. Could Pastor do it? Oh? He had to free and everybody

  421. else did. He hasn't mean that everybody else did, but it knew what

  422. it was like. Let's stand. You knew the importance, but it just

  423. gonna come. You knew the importance of raising a man that was gonna raise

  424. his children. He knew that he was gonna have grandchildren that needed a father

  425. that would stand strong, not cow like a little sissy. Boy? Would

  426. you bring forth an instant ready for the work of God? Or will your

  427. medal be unfinished? Whenever God says, hey, is it done? I'm

  428. ready to use it. But is it? Then you have to say,

  429. Lord, I didn't prath when I should have. I didn't hammer when I

  430. should have. They kicked me, but I said, just this once,

  431. I'll let it go. What you do it the first time, we'll do

  432. it the second time. Because you said I gonne at one one time before

  433. again, it is okay. They seem to be divine that thing you none.

  434. You can't even discipline your kids. You're not getting older. You they

  435. got free rain. They're just as much a period of that house as you

  436. want. They think they have. There's as much authority as you have.

  437. Man. We are the head of the house. We make the ultimate choice.

  438. We say yes, we say no. Them kids are under your roof.

  439. That's your kid. The pastor said, he told us, long as

  440. you're in my roof your mind, you abide by my rules whatever I say,

  441. oh man. Whenever we got vehicles, Dad Bottom, he always said,

  442. there ain't gonna be none of us coming home late just because you're eighteen.

  443. Don't give you free rain. You're gonna be home. I think was

  444. like ten thirty or something. What we had to constantly tell you, hey

  445. dad, if, oh man, if we were one minute, like where

  446. are you at? I told you to be home at ten thirty because he

  447. knew if we stretched it ten thirty one and that time on ten thirty two,

  448. and if he continue to be okay with it, next saying us one

  449. two in the morning out on the town because we have freedom. Freedom,

  450. because we're eighteen, we could do what he wanted. That's not true.

  451. Don't let down when they fight the hammer, take him put in a fire,

  452. a heat at pressure. Don't let your hammer go the waist. Proverbs

  453. not ten and twenty says you're counsel and receive instruction that thou mayst be wise,

  454. And the latter is hear the counsel of your parents. Hear it that

  455. you may be wise than your letter is. I want to be that man.

  456. I may not be the same as him, but God has extended the

  457. same opportunity to me as he had. And it's up to me to take

  458. my child and say, you know what, I'm gonna make you to the

  459. man that God want you to be. I'm gonna fight for you. Sure,

  460. the anvil is painful, the cutting table that a painful, but the

  461. end result is worth it. The end result is worth it. The lato

  462. don't refuse to use them. We are forging the fathers of this generation and

  463. into like me. Nashial Thistle before jes
