01:41so much for tuning in today. We have an amazing guest. We got Robert, and I'm going to help me.

01:46Okay, here we go. Woger. There you go. I said it. I did it.

01:52Okay. I get excited when I say the right name. Oh, gosh. The little things that matter in this lifetime.

01:59Thank you so much, Robert, for joining us.

02:01Well, thank you, Yaya.

02:03So, you know, I want to go back, and I always go back with my guests to the past. And,

02:08you know, for the moment that they knew, that they knew, this is what I'm going to do. Sometimes it

02:14doesn't happen like that. Sometimes it's a trial and error. What was it like for you?

02:19Well, my life has really been an example of God's tapestry. You know how he weaves your life, but you

02:29don't know wherever you're at right then when I was a child or a teen or my 20s, 30s, 40s,

02:36wherever I was in life, I couldn't see the whole hand of God and the whole tapestry and his master

02:42weaving ability.

02:43But now, as I'm a little older, I'm 61 now. So I can look back and see how God orchestrated

02:53my life, even the little things. You know, the Bible says that all things work together for good for them

02:59that love God, that are called according to his purpose in Christ Jesus.

03:02Well, that is so true. All things in our lives, not just my life, but every person is important. God

03:11loves every person. Every person has an appointed destiny. And I wasn't raised in a Christian home.

03:20I didn't know about God. I didn't know about God. And it was like I was set up by the

03:25devil from birth to fail. And I had to go through so many things.

03:30But I know God was there. He had angels around me. He had a destiny and he had a plan.

03:38And all I had to do was ask God, if you're real, show me.

03:43And when I prayed that kind of prayer, like I said, I wasn't raised in the church, wasn't raised.

03:48My parents weren't Christians. But he took me through life experiences, just like we all have life experiences. And that's

03:59what brought me to where I'm at now.

04:01Wonderful. Wow. Well, you know, I think that a lot of people can relate to that. You know, a lot

04:07of people know that their beginnings were very rocky and very challenging.

04:12But without those challenges, do you think you'd be where you're at today?

04:18Absolutely not. Absolutely not. One of the things I had to learn is, you know, I had to overcome, but

04:31not I had to get to the point where I stopped relying on myself and turned everything over to God.

04:37Because I had to get to the point where I said, I am nothing. He is everything.

04:43You know, all of us have a challenge and a journey that we have to go on. So your ministry

04:48began in 1995, right? In the 1900s.

04:53Well, actually, my ministry actually began in 1990. My digital internet ministry.

05:00The internet wasn't around publicly till around 94, 95. So I didn't start using the internet for Christian ministry till

05:10about 95.

05:11But there are some key things that I am so happy that are gone with the digital realm.

05:18I'm like, I hated that thing. Oh, my gosh. It took forever. But I mean, you know, and you've got

05:26mail. That one there was revolutionary.

05:30So when you started your digital media, you've seen a lot of digital platforms come and go, especially in Christian

05:38ministry and over the past three decades.

05:45Well, we really have to go back to 1987 because that's when I gave my life to Jesus Christ.

05:52I had gone through a traumatic life experience, sort of like a life and death experience.

05:59And I lost everything. And I reached out to God and said, that's when I prayed, God, if you're real,

06:06show me.

06:07I was on the run from the law. I was doing all kinds of things.

06:11And everything was, it looked like my life was totally over.

06:15And God took me and, you know, he will build you from faith to faith.

06:20And he will, he line upon line.

06:24And he took me from there, pulled me out of that miry clay.

06:27I almost felt like the prodigal son, you know, that had returned.

06:32And God began showing me his love.

06:34And then when I first received his love, I didn't, my father never, never showed me a bit of love.

06:41My natural father here on earth, he called me names.

06:44He mistreated me.

06:45He abused me.

06:47But, so I had to wait till 1987.

06:51I was born in 1965.

06:54And then I discovered the love of the father, of the heavenly father and of Jesus.

07:02And then I could go, then he called me into ministry.

07:05He put me on solid ground through a series of miracles.

07:10And if we have time, we can talk about those.

07:12But really, I had that road to Damascus experience like Paul did, where he was knocked off the horse and

07:19mule.

07:20And he was blinded, and Jesus got his attention.

07:24Well, God had to get my attention.

07:26But once he did, I sold out totally.

07:30And then it was a cleanup process.

07:33We all have to go through a cleanup process.

07:36I felt like I, the devil had put everything in the kitchen sink on top of me.

07:41And I felt the weight of the world on me.

07:44And then it was a cleansing.

07:46It was a deliverance process.

07:48It was getting free.

07:50Because I lived most of my life in fear and bondage and neglect and abuse and pride and all kinds

07:58of things.

07:58But back to your question, using technology for me, the internet in 95,

08:09God blessed me with a platform.

08:12I believe I was the first one, or if not the first one, the first few that ever used the

08:18internet for Christian evangelism.

08:20Wow.

08:21Go ahead.

08:22No, no.

08:23Wow.

08:24Yeah.

08:25You know, back in those times, I mean, there were really no windows.

08:28You know, you had to develop your own platform or no coding.

08:34I mean, you couldn't be like, you know, you couldn't be, you know, nonchalant.

08:39You got to be all in, you know.

08:41Even the kids had to know program to work the games that were on, like, the Commodore.

08:47Remember the Commodore?

08:48That was like, okay, that was the first desktop computer.

08:50That thing was bulky, okay?

08:52That thing was huge.

08:53Do you want to know what my first computer was as a child?

08:56What?

08:57The Radio Shack TRS-80.

08:59I don't know if you ever heard of a TRS-80.

09:00I did.

09:01I did Radio Shack.

09:03Oh, my God.

09:04And they had little cassette tapes you loved them.

09:06Yes.

09:07Yes.

09:08I remember those.

09:09I did have that when my friends had that when my mom got me the Commodore.

09:12I remember that.

09:13You had to know coding.

09:14It was just a black and white screen with letters on it.

09:17And basic.

09:17You had to know coding.

09:18Oh, yeah.

09:19Very basic.

09:20Wow.

09:21Wow.

09:22That is.

09:22And so you had a platform, though.

09:24You had, like, a coding, kind of like a Microsoft coding?

09:27Well, I was blessed.

09:30I grew up in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

09:32Then I got an RCC Navy scholarship to Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas for computer science.

09:41And I went to Texas A&M.

09:44It's sort of like I wanted to get as far away from Philadelphia as I could.

09:48And I just picked it on a map.

09:49I didn't know Texas or what Texas A&M was.

09:52I didn't know it was a military school.

09:55Oh, no.

09:56I soon found out I signed up for the Corps of Cadets.

09:59But anyway, God took me from that.

10:03I love computers all my life.

10:05They were sort of my friend.

10:06Since my father mistreated me, I didn't have much worth.

10:10I started with that TRS-80 Radio Shack computer.

10:15Computers were my friend because they didn't talk back to you.

10:19Yeah.

10:19They did whatever you wanted.

10:21So I was sort of one of those computer geeks back in the early days, around late 70s, early 90s.

10:29In fact, I was in a mentally gifted or academically talented program at school.

10:34And in 1973, we used the old teletypes and the paper tape machine.

10:40I was blessed to be able to do computer programming.

10:44So I've been – anyway, suffice it to say, at Texas A&M, I had two semesters where I did

10:49a co-op program, you know, internship.

10:52Yeah.

10:52And I got blessed to be one of the pioneers on software development for the IBM PC when it was

11:00first.

11:01So I worked on a team that wrote code for that IBM PC that was just getting released there in

11:07the early 80s.

11:08So –

11:08Yeah, that's cool.

11:09And we went from there.

11:10I was a Christian – not a Christian.

11:12I was a software developer, shareware developer.

11:14I wrote something called Hotter, H-O-T-D-I-R.

11:17It was a color-sorted directory utility.

11:20And I just found out today I was featured on a TV show in 1988 I didn't even know about.

11:26Wow.

11:27I was researching my past.

11:29But then I worked for an internet company in the mid-90s, and I ran an internet service provider.

11:36That's what you were talking about with the dial-up.

11:39So I was there with the machines that people would call into, and we would route that out to the

11:44internet.

11:45So God gave me the technical internet backbone skills.

11:49I had several of the early domain names.

11:52I had salvation.com.

11:54I had bible.net.

11:56And I started putting up Christian content, and I had a love for sharing Christian content on the internet.

12:02Wow.

12:02That's how it started.

12:04Then, if you don't mind me sharing –

12:06No, go ahead.

12:08Because I had salvation.com, I felt God wanted me to share the salvation message on the internet.

12:15And since people were searching for salvation, I would come up number one because it was salvation.com.

12:22And I had a dream or vision where an angel took me and gave me a revelation of hell.

12:29I was taken – not physically, but I believe my spirit was taken into hell.

12:34And I was shown what it's like in hell because I needed, as an internet minister and an evangelist, I

12:43needed to have a love and a compassion for souls.

12:46When I saw the – I didn't see the fire and the pitchfork and those demons down there.

12:52The revelation I saw was the – and I wrote a book about it.

12:56It's on Amazon about that revelation of hell.

12:58But what I saw is the eternal separation and loneliness being eternally separated from God.

13:06So I wouldn't want my worst enemy to be separated from the love of God for eternity.

13:11So that sort of began my ministry, took me – and then God supernaturally opened doors with a company called

13:20Walnut Creek CD-ROM, and then Bridgestone Multimedia Group.

13:24And I made CD-ROMs of Christian shareware for both.

13:28And then I was also – there was a search engine back in the early days called Goshen.net, G

13:34-O-S-H-E-N.net.

13:36And it was like the Christian Google.

13:39So if you wanted to find Christian material in the early – mid-90s, you went to Goshen.net.

13:46And I was there – I maintained their Christian library and distributed tens of thousands of Christian files a day

13:53through that.

13:54Wow.

13:55Wow.

13:56I mean, like, wow.

13:58That – I mean, to see everything get to today, like from then till now, that's a big difference.

14:07I mean, look at what we're doing today.

14:08You couldn't have done this back in that day.

14:10No, there was no online video, and the streaming audio was so bad.

14:15It was low, low.

14:17Reuterized.

14:20It was bad.

14:22It was bad.

14:23Wow.

14:24Well, so going into today, your teachings emphasize agreement with God's word as a foundation for faith, right?

14:30Can you explain what it means to walk in agreement with Scripture and why it is essential for believers today?

14:36Sure.

14:37It really ties into a foundational Scripture in Amos 3.3.

14:41It says, how can two walk together except they be agreed or in agreement?

14:47And really, Yahya, you know what I discovered that faith really is?

14:51By the way, I've been blessed to have some wonderful mentors along the way, one of which, his name was

14:58Don Gossett, G-O-S-S-E-T-T.

15:00He's passed away in 2014, but he wrote some of the classic books about the power of your words and

15:10speaking in agreement.

15:11So I'm not claiming I have any new revelation, but God is using me in this modern day.

15:17I was blessed to be Catherine Coleman's archivist.

15:21I did her digital archives first in around 2000, and I turned all that material over to her foundation.

15:27She died in 1976.

15:30So I've worked with a lot of different ministries preserving their archives.

15:34I did A.A. Allen.

15:35I don't know if you know he was a healing evangelist.

15:38And I did a lot of Andrew Murray's books.

15:42So I took a lot of the old books, was an archivist, and put them in the public domain so

15:48that they could carry on in the future generations.

15:53Wow, wow.

15:54So you yourself have authored over 40 Christian books covering topics like prayer, healing, and spiritual growth.

16:01Which book do you consider the most impactful for your readers and why?

16:06Well, I would have to say it's my two books on speaking.

16:12You know, your words matter.

16:15And you can put them up.

16:17I think they're on your – I don't have the titles in front of me.

16:21Here they are.

16:22Hold on a second.

16:22Let me put them up.

16:23There's some of them.

16:24Just a few.

16:26Yeah.

16:28Just a few, but my gosh.

16:30Okay.

16:30The two words, your words shape eternity.

16:35You know.

16:36I'm looking for them.

16:38Let me know when I get there.

16:39There it is.

16:41Right there.

16:43Okay.

16:44And then – you got it?

16:50Yeah, I got it right here.

16:51Your words shape eternity right here.

16:53And then there's another one about speaking on earth as it is in heaven.

16:59Okay.

17:00Give me one second.

17:00There it is.

17:01No, it isn't.

17:03And then I have a whole – there it is.

17:06Words – go up there on the right.

17:08This one.

17:09Yeah.

17:10Words that bring heaven's power on earth as it is in heaven.

17:15Those – what we should know is our words matter.

17:21You know, just like I told you, my father's words hurt me growing up when I never received any love.

17:27And all I got was rejection and abandonment of verbal abuse.

17:34And a lot of Christians don't know that our life and death are in the power of our tongue.

17:40And so do you know what faith is?

17:42Yeah, yeah.

17:43I've been through this so many years and I've heard people say, well, you didn't get your healing because you

17:47didn't have enough faith or this, that.

17:49I don't agree with that.

17:50What I believe is faith, you know, we know the definition.

17:54It's the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

17:58But you know what really I've discovered faith is?

18:01What?

18:02Faith is your response to God.

18:05So God is just looking for us.

18:07He wants a relationship with us through Jesus Christ.

18:10And he wants us to respond back to him according to his word.

18:14He gave us his word as an outline of how we should conduct our life.

18:19And as we agree with God's word and we speak, you're either in one of two places.

18:25You're either in agreement with your words, either agree with God's word or they rebel against God's word.

18:33And, you know, rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft.

18:35So I don't want to be out of God's will.

18:40So I've written a lot of books, these ultimate prayers books for spiritual warfare and to resist the enemy.

18:48You'll see all kinds of I even have ultimate prayers books for toddlers and two books for children.

18:57And it's all about prayer is about communication with God.

19:01But it's about speaking back to God, affirming that you believe his word, that you're living in agreement.

19:07Then, of course, faith without works is dead.

19:11So we need to make sure our actions line up with our words.

19:15Yeah.

19:16Go ahead.

19:17No, definitely.

19:18I agree with you.

19:19I definitely agree with you.

19:20So prayer resources are a big part of your ministry, right?

19:24What advice do you give to Christians who struggle to maintain a consistent and powerful prayer life?

19:29Because life happens, you know what I mean?

19:32And things happen and you forget.

19:33So how can you, you know, keep that on track?

19:37Right.

19:38Well, I found that, you know, we have we know we have an enemy that tries to fight our spiritual

19:44life.

19:46And it's all about we're in this world and we have to overcome.

19:50The enemy sends us distractions and deceptions to try to block our faith with faith in God.

19:59So you asked how you can overcome.

20:02We have to resist the devil and he'll flee.

20:04But first, we have to be in agreement with God.

20:07So when we stay in that place, you know, Psalms 91 talks about the dwelling in the secret place of

20:14the Most High, abiding under the shadow of the Almighty.

20:17That's really staying in agreement with God.

20:20That's having a daily time of prayer, Bible study, devotions.

20:26Sometimes get because we get washed continually by the renewing of the word of God and we need to because

20:33we pick up junk every day.

20:35As you know, there's so much distractions, deceptions, clutter, things going on in the world to pull us away from

20:43God.

20:44So every day we have to just get to the place where we say, God, here I am again.

20:49I love you.

20:51I put on the full armor, God.

20:52I thank you for forgiving me of all my sins and also releasing any judgments you have against anyone else.

20:59Because if you don't forgive others, God can't forgive you.

21:02That's what the word says.

21:03So we start each day fresh and it's not about what we're doing.

21:09We just have to be an open vessel that he can use.

21:13We're nothing special.

21:14We can't get prideful.

21:16But as long as we say, use me, here I am, use me, he will.

21:21And that's really what my life is all about.

21:23And as an example of, I thought my life was over.

21:27I tried to commit suicide when I was 13.

21:29I drank Crystal Drano because my parents were getting a divorce.

21:33And kids always blame themselves for their parents' divorce.

21:36I don't know why that is.

21:38But I wanted to end it.

21:39But thank God he supernaturally intervened.

21:43They pumped me out, my stomach out.

21:46They said I should have been on a colostomy bag for the rest of my life if I survived.

21:50Never needed that.

21:52God supernaturally preserved my life.

21:55But that's just one of the many times that the devil, the enemy, tried to take me out.

21:59Because I had a high call.

22:01We all have high calls.

22:03And I want to encourage everyone.

22:05You might not be an internet evangelist like I was or a Christian author.

22:09But discover your giftings and your talents.

22:12You know, Yahya, you come from a musical family, musical heritage.

22:16And that's in your DNA.

22:18And you use it for, you know, just to encourage people and bless people.

22:22You've got to discover what your gifts are and use them.

22:26Mm-hmm.

22:27I agree.

22:28That's why we have the station.

22:29And that's why we have you on this show.

22:33Because you are one of those people that encourage people to go after their dreams, their goals, their visions.

22:38You set not only that speaking movement, but you also do what you do.

22:43So you're not like, hey, you know, do what I say, but not as I do.

22:47You're saying, look, I'm not only saying it, but I'm doing it.

22:52And that's why you're here.

22:53I thank you so much.

22:54So you have a teaching.

22:55And it's called Wish, Witch, or Pray.

23:01Addresses the dangers of witchcraft and divination.

23:03It's free.

23:04It's on my website, robertwolver.com, W-O-E-G-E-R.com.

23:10Yeah.

23:10Tell me about that.

23:11I just wrote that probably a week or two ago.

23:16And every day, I don't hear the audible voice of God, but I hear that still small voice of God.

23:23I get impressions.

23:25Usually early in the morning.

23:27He gets me up around three in the morning.

23:29And he'll put an idea to write a new book or to write an article like that.

23:35And so everything I believe that I write is birthed by the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit.

23:40And I just am a vessel that he uses to write.

23:44But that particular one, you know, we're so accustomed in our lives to wish upon a star.

23:52They indoctrinate children to make a birthday wish, wish upon a star.

23:59You know, it's really a warning not to dabble into the occult.

24:04Be careful.

24:06Who are you making a wish to?

24:09Because in that writing, God showed me that there is no neutral ground in the spiritual realm.

24:16When you make a wish, if you don't attach who you're wishing to, like when you pray, you're making your

24:23request known to God and you're asking him to respond.

24:27Well, when you make a wish, you didn't give it any destination.

24:31So any spiritual entity can pick it up and answer your wish.

24:36You might get a demon or, you know, bad spiritual force might answer your wish.

24:44And so that's why we have to be careful.

24:46Again, agreement with our words, being careful with our words.

24:50But that one is all about making sure you pray to God, that you don't just make wishes and ask

24:58the universe to fulfill them because someone or something will fulfill them and it may not be God.

25:03And you probably I know we're running low on time, but I have been waylaid by the enemy.

25:11He loves to attack people's relationships and he loves to deceive people.

25:16And I've been set up by the enemy more than once with false women coming in my life, trying to

25:23marriage, marry me and get me off course.

25:26But God supernaturally has protected me.

25:30And, you know, but I know we make decisions every day, you know, our job, our life, our family, who

25:37we're going to marry.

25:38And if we don't make our request to God and hear his voice, then maybe some other voice might answer.

25:45And we need to always get the peace of God that passes all understanding and all our decisions.

25:50Yeah.

25:51Yeah.

25:52Wow.

25:52Well, wow.

25:54What?

25:55What?

25:56What?

25:59You can't be careful of those women, boy, I tell you.

26:02Oh, you know, even women have to be careful of other women.

26:06I mean, you know, because they can, they can throw you off track.

26:09I mean, you can be, you can, because women are always trying to find that one person that they, that's

26:13got their back.

26:14Their, their girl, you know what I mean?

26:16Their hangout girl, the girl that, you know, that's always got their back.

26:20It's hard.

26:22It's not easy.

26:23It's just like your best friend and people who have best friends.

26:25I get jealous because it's hard to find your, your other person, your person.

26:31Like I know that if I call her or, or like a guy, if I, if I call him my,

26:36my person, you know, that's my, that's like my brother from another mother.

26:40It's hard to find that.

26:42And you have to find that person in a wife or a husband as well.

26:46And it's difficult when you are in the public eye and you, people come out of the woodwork.

26:53It's like, who are you?

26:55Why are you even like here?

26:58Because it's difficult.

27:01Can I have, can I have, give you a brief testimony?

27:03Yeah, please do.

27:04Yes.

27:05This was in the nineties, mid nineties or so.

27:09Uh, and I had a witch tried to seduce me and tell me she was supposed to, God sent her

27:18to be my wife, you know, type thing.

27:20And you know what, what, what keyed me off because she was casting all kinds of love spells and doing

27:27all kinds of stuff behind the back.

27:28I didn't know, but God warned me.

27:30Uh, but she knew too much about me and that's a key.

27:35Uh, and you know what she admitted?

27:37And she, by the way, she owned a black cat, you know, that's right there.

27:42Nothing against black cats, but, but I actually, uh, confronted her and believe it or not, this black cat vanished,

27:51just dissolved and then appeared later on outside.

27:55I saw it with my own eyes, it's testimony.

27:58And she had later admitted she was a witch and she admitted, listen to this.

28:04Yeah.

28:05She admitted that demons have been teaching her about my life and my background for several years before.

28:12I came across her past.

28:13So they were prepping her to try to derail me and derail my life, uh, for God.

28:19No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I believe it.

28:25I'm not saying I don't believe it.

28:27What I'm saying is no, careful who you marry.

28:36Be careful who tries to hook up with you.

28:39You just never know.

28:40You know, it's so, it's so people.

28:43Okay.

28:43How would you say this?

28:45People believe that they're in their right spot at the moment.

28:49Right.

28:50But then when they look back on their past, they see that they weren't, when they go into their future,

28:54then they're, you know, their destiny.

28:57Um, a lot of times the enemy will try to grab you before you can figure out how important you

29:04are.

29:04That's right.

29:05And they will grab you with someone to distract you, to hurt you, to try and maim you.

29:10You know, women go through the domestic violence because they're with someone that's trying to keep them from their purpose

29:16and their plan.

29:17So the enemy comes in before you become aware of how important you are in the, in the scope of

29:24the puzzle of life.

29:25Right.

29:26Um, and so you have to be careful.

29:28I always say women, men be careful because if you see a lot of red flags and you ignore those

29:35red flags, that's on you.

29:37That's right.

29:38Because the red flags will come up.

29:39You have to kind of, I always tell people, step out of your situation and look to the inside.

29:45Like as if you are a spectator and then judge your situation.

29:49Don't judge from the inside, always judge from the outside.

29:52And that's, that's like my motto.

29:55That's my motto.

29:56I never, ever judge from the inside.

29:57I always step out.

29:58I'm very critical of it.

30:00I look at it.

30:01Are there any red flags or anything I have to be careful of?

30:04Is she really a person that's after me or after the popularity that I have?

30:10Sure.

30:10Um, so yeah.

30:11Yeah.

30:12You know, one thing I found that God showed me that's worked for years that eliminates all that stuff, eliminates

30:18wrong.

30:19Tell me, just tell me.

30:20Don't even.

30:21Pray, pray for truth.

30:24If you will pray for truth and that's God's truth, not some made up.

30:29I'm not talking about some worldly truth.

30:31I'm talking about God's.

30:33And that's why agreement with God's word.

30:35If you're aligned with God, because his word is truth.

30:38So if you, if you will believe what his word says, and then if you pray for truth, then when

30:45something's off or someone's off, you'll feel it right away.

30:49You won't have peace because peace is the evidence that you're walking in God's truth.

30:54So if someone comes around you, if you have time, I can tell you another story, but you know, stuff

31:01goes on in churches.

31:02Oh, I know.

31:03I have been under some abusive pastors, ministries, so forth.

31:08I've been under false apostles, different things.

31:11And you got to be very careful.

31:14And a lot of people, since I'm in the confession thing, confessing God's word, they think I'm a name it,

31:21claim it, or they think I'm a prosperity preacher, which I'm not.

31:24I never ask for money.

31:26I don't, you know, tell people so, so much, and then you'll get a car, you know, like there's preachers

31:31of LA or any of those type things, you know, familiar with some of the things that go on in

31:37the church.

31:38And I wish more people would just get back to the word and just have a love for God and

31:44walk their lives in humility and peace.

31:47And we're supposed to, the evidence that we are of the faith is that we love one another, you know,

31:55yeah, yeah.

31:56And that's how the Bible says that we know that we're believers, that we love one another.

32:02So how can we walk in love if we're trying to get someone else's man or if we're trying to

32:08tell on this one or scheme on this or manipulate people out of money or, you know, fame or whatever.

32:18And really, God is love.

32:21We were created in God's image.

32:23So we're, I talked a lot about the glory.

32:26I haven't touched on that here, but the glory is the manifest presence of God.

32:30You can get to a place with God.

32:32He had to take me through many years of deliverance, but you can get to a place of God where

32:37you actually walk in the glory realm.

32:39And I have a book called The Glory Realm and Glory Life.

32:43And you can walk in the place where you're so filled with the peace and presence of God that nothing

32:49else matters.

32:50The people don't matter.

32:52The distractions, the cares of the world don't matter.

32:55Lay up your treasure in heaven where moth and rust, you know, don't destroy.

33:00And really, this life is all about glorifying God and laying up your treasure in heaven.

33:06So when we get to heaven, we hear, well done, thou good and faithful servant.

33:10Enter into the joy of the Lord.

33:12There you go.

33:12That's it.

33:13That's it.

33:14You know, I appreciate this talk because you do have a book called Awake, Aligned, and Sent.

33:19And this addresses that distraction and that weariness that people face.

33:24That's a free article on my website.

33:26Oh, yeah.

33:26What are some key biblical principles from this teaching that can help believers regain spiritual focus?

33:32Sure.

33:32Well, a lot of people have been lulled to sleep spiritually.

33:38You asked what you can do every day.

33:41Get those devotions going every day.

33:43Do a prayer life every day.

33:45Because you don't realize when the enemy sneaks into your camp, it's sort of like the frog in the kettle.

33:52You know, if they turn up the heat, if it's done little by little, you don't realize it.

33:56Yeah.

33:57But if you're sensitive in the spirit, you'll recognize it right away.

34:02So you need to be awake and aware, and you need to be so aligned with God that when someone

34:08says something, you'll know it's off.

34:10Yeah.

34:11So when they try to manipulate you, say, that's witchcraft.

34:15I'm not going to – what do you mean?

34:16You're not going to be my friend if I don't do what you want?

34:19No, you're trying to manipulate me.

34:21That's witchcraft.

34:22Yeah.

34:23Witchcraft is just tapping into a power source other than God.

34:28So you're trying to do something on your own strength.

34:30You're trying to manipulate the situation.

34:33And that's rebellion, it says, the sin of witchcraft.

34:37Yes, I am.

34:38So I appreciate you, first of all, for coming on and sharing.

34:44I mean, you have so many – I mean, so many books.

34:46Look at this.

34:47Look at this.

34:48And the list goes on, and you have not stopped creating, which is amazing because to me, you know, when

34:54people say, oh, you know, you should really, like, stop and focus and whatever.

34:58And I don't think that.

35:00I think that the universe is continually being created.

35:03There are new planets developing every day.

35:05And just like new planets develop, new ideas develop every day.

35:09So you don't stop until you're gone, until you're with the most high creator up in heaven.

35:13And, you know, but I want to know what lesson on earth, now that you're living, now that you're here

35:18with us, the insights that you would like to share with young and old ministers and older ministers to use

35:24the technology today to spread the gospel effectively.

35:27What kind of advice?

35:30Well, we – especially concerning AI, artificial intelligence.

35:36We are on a whole new platform, a new paradigm shift.

35:43Before, it was text.

35:45It was video.

35:46It was video clips.

35:47And now we don't know what's true and what's not true.

35:52When you see a video clip or hear an audio, it can be synthetic.

35:57It can be AI.

35:59So we need – I believe this is the plan of the enemy.

36:03Do you – I believe AI is the enemy's way of trying to be omnipotent like God is, knowing everything,

36:11knowing what's – why are they building all these data centers everywhere?

36:13Or they're trying to – they're trying to track us, surveil us, control us, and God doesn't do that because

36:24he knows everything about us, but the devil doesn't.

36:29And so what we can do in this technology is be honest, be real, and share your testimonies because we

36:38overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony.

36:40So if you have an overcomer story, if God's brought you out of something, or if he hasn't yet, then

36:47trust him in faith that he will because God – nothing's impossible with God, yeah, yeah.

36:53You know this from your life.

36:55Each of us that have gone through things know that God's bigger.

36:59I'm sure your mom would say, God is bigger than anything you're facing, you know, and God loves you, and

37:08all he wants is a relationship with you.

37:10And the devil just wants to block that relationship, and he wants to take you where his destiny is, which

37:16is hell, which we – God never designed hell for people.

37:20It's just because of the sin and the rebellion.

37:23So we have a wonderful gift.

37:25Jesus Christ paid the penalty.

37:27He redeemed us.

37:29Have faith in him.

37:30Embrace him.

37:31And live your life to glorify God and enjoy him forever.

37:36Definitely, definitely.

37:38And use the internet to your advantage.

37:40I always say, you know what?

37:42We have such a reach now, you know, such a reach.

37:45You can go on for 30 seconds.

37:48Just go on and just give your idea.

37:51Spread the word.

37:52Spread the good news.

37:53Spread positivity, you know.

37:55It doesn't take much to impact the world nowadays.

37:58It just takes 30 seconds, probably 10.

38:00You know, 10 seconds of your life every day is nothing, but it might be something for someone else.

38:06An image, an encouraging image, or a short video clip.

38:11A lot of people are doing video clips.

38:13Just love on people and share the goodness that you have.

38:19Share the hope.

38:20That's my mandate.

38:21God actually spoke to me.

38:22I had a cruise ship ministry for several years where I traveled all over the world primarily.

38:28And I ministered on cruise ships.

38:31I've never heard of anyone else that had a cruise ship ministry.

38:35But anyway, God is great about that.

38:39He's creative.

38:41And God spoke to me and he said, your mandate is deliver hope to a lost and dying world.

38:47So ever since he spoke that, and this was about 2007 or so, I've been focusing on delivering hope to

38:55a lost, dying world.

38:57And then he blessed me in 2018 with a wife.

39:02And I got an instant family wife.

39:04I never had kids.

39:05And it was a supernatural thing from God.

39:08God spoke to her.

39:09God spoke to me.

39:11And God even asked me, are you willing to marry her?

39:15And God spoke to her about me.

39:18And, of course, first she said, who?

39:20Him?

39:20I don't want anything to do with him.

39:21But after a while, God got the message through.

39:25But we have a testimony about how God brought us together in our later years.

39:30And so no matter where you are in life, don't be like me when I was 13.

39:36Don't even think about suicide.

39:38Don't think about drugs or depression or anything.

39:41But think about, just ask this question I did.

39:45God, if you're real, show me.

39:47And he loves to answer that question.

39:49And he'll reveal himself to you faithfully.

39:52Awesome.

39:53Well, thank you, Robert, for being on the show.

39:54I appreciate it.

39:56Again, I mean, I'm just, I'm over the hills.

40:00I mean, look at this.

40:02This is enough to keep you busy for the next year.

40:05And then you'd have to reread it just to make sure you got everything.

40:09Well, I'm not trying to overwhelm people.

40:12What I'm trying to do is share the blessings, the things God has taught me.

40:17I want to pass them on to future generations.

40:20You know, I have a book about that, about your destiny.

40:24You want to pass on a destiny for, think about it generationally.

40:29We don't know how much longer we have.

40:31Everybody thinks in their generation that the Lord will return.

40:34But what if he doesn't?

40:35What if he tarries?

40:36You know, our grandparents thought he was coming.

40:40You know, our parents thought he was coming.

40:42So we just need to be faithful, sow seeds, love on people.

40:47And you don't know how many souls are going to be in heaven because you gave an encouraging

40:51word or because you made yourself available.

40:55You just delivered some hope to someone.

40:57Amen.

40:57That's it.

40:58That's it.

40:59Thank you so much, Robert, for being on the show today.

41:02It's Robert Woger.
