0:35Imma tell you how to finish cause I got off to a bad start.

0:40Now I'm about to tell you two things.

0:42Now listen to me.

0:43What I'm about to tell you,

0:45this is for spiritual people only.

0:48If you're not a spiritual person, this aint for you.

0:50If you don't believe in God,

0:52this aint finna do nothing for you.

0:55But I aint know you was coming

0:57so I have no other version.

1:01This is only people who have a faith.

1:03You aint gotta be no born-again Christian

1:06or nothing like that, you got to know that that God is God.

1:10If you understand that, I can help you from here.

1:14Imma give you two things that can change your life.

1:18It's two scriptures that changed my entire life.

1:22It's very simple.

1:23The cold thing about what I'm finna tell you is

1:25anybody can do it.

1:28This is what I'm finna tell you.

1:29See, I aint about finna talk to you about no education

1:32cause I aint got one; I flunked out of school.

1:35I had a severe stuttering problem,

1:37I couldn't talk outside my house.

1:38I aint do well in school, ever.

1:41I ended up flunking out of school, I'm on my third marriage,

1:44I lost everything I've owned twice,

1:46I been homeless and lived in a car for three years.

1:49I'm finna tell you what I know.

1:51This aint no fancy rich-boy answer, no theories, no, no.

1:55You aint gotta buy no program to do this.

1:57You aint got to go sign up.

1:59I'm telling you right now, what I'm finna tell you,

2:03if you apply it right now, can change your existence.

2:08Because everybody I know wanna be happy,

2:11everybody I know wanna be successful.

2:13If you don't want them two things,

2:14it's something wrong with you anyway.

2:16So now, here.

2:18There is a scripture that Imma give you.

2:20It's very small scripture, it's very short.

2:23I don't even know where it is in the bible.

2:27Somebody probably know it if I say it,

2:29but Imma give it to you.

2:31This scripture changed my life.

2:33You have not, cause you ask not.

2:37You have any idea how major those words are for you?

2:44You have not, cause you ask not.

2:48It's such a simple scripture but it's in your bible.

2:52It aint just in rich people's bible.

2:54It's in the same copy you got.

2:57You have not, cause you ask not.

3:00This is the truest statement you'll hear me say today.

3:04Cause it's true.

3:06Most people don't have the life of their dreams

3:09cause you don't ask God for the life of your dreams.

3:13You've been trying to figure it out and handle it yourself.

3:16Well, how that's working out for you?

3:18You know how hard that is to do, man?

3:21Because I did it.

3:24I did it for 30 some years.

3:27I tried to figure it out myself.

3:30Man, the simple scripture says,

3:34you have not, cause you ask not.

3:36If you up your ask, He automatically ups his give.

3:41You His child.

3:43God created you

3:45He made you.

3:46You aint just here by no accident,

3:48you aint here cause of yo momma and daddy.

3:50Where your mom and daddy come from?

3:52Somebody, somebody started this whole thing.

3:55God created you.

3:57He gave you these little simple things you could do.

4:00You have not, cause you ask not.

4:02Second reason people don't have what they want

4:04and be through with you, they don't have it written down.

4:08This is a very, very important piece to success.

4:12It's a principle of success,

4:14every wealthy person knows this.

4:17I don't know nobody wealthy don't have a vision board.

4:22I don't know nobody wealthy

4:24don't have their stuff written on a piece of paper.

4:26I don't know nobody.

4:28I know a lotta people doing good.

4:31We have discussed it at great lengths.

4:34They've showed me some of they vision boards,

4:36why I had to go back and change mine.

4:39I went whoa, whoa, whoa.

4:41But you gotta have a vision board,

4:43it's gotta be written down.

4:44You know why?

4:46Because that's a scripture, too.

4:49Habakkuk 2:2, I know where this one at.

4:51Habakkuk 2:2

4:54go home and read that one.

4:55It says write the vision and make it plain

4:59so that he who reads it will run to it,

5:02and even though it tarry, that mean take a long time,

5:06wait for it.

5:07For surely it will come at an appointed time.

5:13Man, I'm telling you real now.

5:18What I'm telling you works.

5:20This aint no magic trick.

5:22If you up your ask and you write everything you want

5:25from God on a piece paper,

5:27now here's the exercise I want you to do.

5:29This gone trip you out.

5:31Write everything you want from God on a piece of paper,

5:34be as detailed as you can.

5:36Write it down.

5:37The object for you is to write down 300 things.

5:41Because I know 300 things that you could use.

5:45It's gone be hard for you, when you get to number 75

5:48you gone get stuck

5:50because your mind isn't conditioned to think way out there

5:53so you gone try to stay in your little list.

5:56But I want you just open up your imagination,

5:58If you could have anything you wanted,

6:00put it on piece of paper.

6:01Anything.

6:02How many cars?

6:04What kinda cars?

6:05What color?

6:06Where you want your next house to be?

6:08Do you want a summer home?

6:09Where you wanna travel to.

6:10How much you want in the bank?

6:11How much would you like to have to retire?

6:13What you wanna leave for your grandkids?

6:15How much would you like to give all your siblings?

6:17Would you like to one day walk in in there

6:19and just give all your family a cheque?

6:21Put everything you want on a piece of paper.

6:23Do not stop until you have 300 things.

6:27It's gone take you a while,

6:28I'm telling you, when you get to 75 your brain gone lock up.

6:32But keep writing it down.

6:34But every morning, read your list.

6:37I don't want you watching tv at night,

6:39I want you to read your list, unless it's Family Feud.

6:42(audience laughs)

6:43other than that, I just

6:47no, but seriously, take five minutes

6:48and read your list every night, every morning.

6:51One year from today,

6:54wait one year from today,

6:57and take a pen out and go down on your list

7:00and check off anything that has happened for you

7:04that's on that list.

7:06Listen to me, if you do that in faith,

7:09if you read your list with the expectation

7:12that God is gone do some great things for you,

7:15at the end of one year, you will be stunned,

7:19absolutely stunned at how much stuff comes off that list.

7:23I promise you, at least 30 things will be off that list.

7:28At minimum, 10% of your list will come true.

7:31You know how I know?

7:32Cause I know a lot of people that did done it.

7:35But you know how I really know?

7:37Cause I did it.

7:39When I open up my phone, I wish I had it,

7:41my phone is my vision board.

7:43My phone aint got picture of no damn dog on it,

7:46no sunset, none of that.

7:48All of my computers have my vision board on it.

7:50Every iPad, tablet I got, laptop,

7:53I have my vision board on it.

7:56Cause that's the signal I'm sending to God

7:58that I believe this is what you gone do for me.

8:02I gotta get a new vision board now

8:04cause it's a lot of stuff off that vision board

8:07that I put on there like year ago,
