The Christian Car Guy Radio Show - A Total Eclipse Of The Heart

This is the Truth Network no school, Christian Car Guy Soto clips hard today on the Christian Car Guy show. Oh my goodness is that intro, Bob. I'm telling you it's packed it's loaded we've got some stuff that God has given us that we get to share this morning, I couldn't.

It's it's Mother's Day Eve, which just light my fire even more so to start off with your heart symbol you forgotten.

You are and I love that I'm a guy that there is so much power in that little scene there. You forgotten me. Your father, you forgotten me. Your father and so you forgotten who you are. Rings they'll bail their brother. I see so much that today on the show in total eclipse of the heart, I discovered things even this morning about eclipse is that I had men and the heart issue is so tied into eclipses to be fascinated by the stuff that I just have to say I might only have one match but I can make an explosion. I watch that matchup what Simba just said that you know who your father is and because you know your father's testimony is in your heart and your testimony what you know he's done in your life right is your fight song is take back your life. Take back your store, your testimony, the fact that I know what my dad did what Simba you know, the whole deal right to approve I'm all right, think about what she just said to prove now testimony is evidence it's proof right. The ark of the testimony was proof that God had given the law to give them the man I give them the staff that butted. This was proof it was there evidence so that if I'm taken back my life and wrap myself in the vine, and when you are in the vine ripened your power is turned on, you can be strong in my favorite part of that song is very and when she says and I don't really care if nobody owes believes and I don't mean in any way shape or form that I don't care if other people believe in Jesus and what I'm saying is that if you my testimony is is is unbelievable. IIII struggle to believe it myself all the stuff that God is done for me, or that why he would do that for me and so when I'm really in walking in that identity of who I really am walking in my testimony I really don't care if anybody believes what I'm fixing to say because I know that it's the stuff that's really underneath. You know what I feel. You hear that beautiful music that we have a great producer that can bring that so we only have one match see on this Mother's Day E about Revelation 318 and Psalms 4513 Madras right to get a dress according to both those things all 45s the wedding soft and says you're going to get address.

That is why does the moon and it's embroidered with pure and you know, the longer I walk with Jesus, the more I keep coming back to say yes to the dress on the same side is whether they use Shoba visit we have to say yes to the dress so you're gonna wonder how I get there was John Bunyan's classic Pilgrim's progress. You may have read it. I hope you have it's absolutely phenomenal lot about it during the show today, but when Christian is freed from his burden. In other words, when he really has all the stuff on his back that he's gotta get off which is the whole reason he goes on the pilgrimage to begin with. These gotta get the stuff off his back and if you're like me you got a lot of stuff on your back that you gotta get rid of and the only person to get rid of with this Jesus right and when he goes to the cross. Pilgrim does, then he's given a white raiment, and he's given a testimony to put in his bosom and and actually both are critical to his entrance.

Later on to the celestial city and they are critical to our entrance into heaven. But I don't know if you thought about how critical they are your actual pilgrimage. If you read Pilgrim's progress. You see that Pilgrim time again pulls out his testimony to read it and it comforts and is huge so interestingly if you look closely in Isaiah chapter 1 verse 18 he says, now, let us reason together, saith the Lord. Though your sins be as scarlet, only if they are, they shall be white as snow. Though they be red like Crimson, they shall be as wool.

So it's interesting to me in the even this week, the things that I struggle with the most to forgive myself.

Like how in the world could I do that how could I be so careless. How could I be so thoughtless. How can I be so out-of-control Bob when it just this week I had a lot of a lot of things happen and a lot of opportunities presented to me today. Things that in the past gave me great pleasure. And when you mention the part about I forgot who will was and forgot who's I was it really really rang true for me because I haven't done anything like that doing something to help somebody. In doing this to help somebody in yesterday and the day before. They were just so many things it just felt right in the place where I got to have the air and I got help a little there and I got reminded of somebody had hit their and and the feeling that I got from from participating in what God would have me D, brightened me up in a really tremendous way.

It turned the light back on and I didn't think about.

I forgot who's I was and what his plan for me was, but then when you mentioned that this morning is like I've been walking on that path in the just changed a lot of things for me gave me my joy back and got a little mojo back in and think about how big your mother in your case, you know, I know your mother and my mother was in my story. See CERT is like Simba needed to remember who his dad was how many, many times do I need to remember who my mother was and all the things that that she is that that's an integral part of this story and people that list the show back in. My mother was alive, you knew she would call in and she shared her own testimony that there was beautiful moms are just incredibly important to listen when I was doing the tune, I still did the children service, but in the past I used to speak about mom a lot a whole lot hadn't done in a while so mama's talks of center more RAM assigned in different things, but she sat me down one day I was trying to tell her this and that had an issue you and and she's not listening. Is there anything you can do about this window will give so she said with them, why are you wasting your time worrying about it. There is so much infinite wisdom comes from that she put in me years ago and then you know you just have to think back, you know, maybe you is a curve in the case of Christian and Pilgrim's progress. He fell asleep on the hill of difficulty, and he lost his testimony.

It actually fell out of his bosom.

It went down on the ground he lost it.

He went started going up the hill without his testimony, and you might imagine that. Oh my goodness he couldn't go any further, he could make his pilgrimage without his testimony, and so we had to go back and get it so we all could use a little going back and getting our testimony and say that I got a call in today at 866-348-7884. Maybe it's about your mom. I would love that I may get some other testimony were God gave you something that gave you evidence it made proof positive in your heart that you can go back and look to that you know you're headed for the celestial city you know that you're his you know he gave me some white raiment dilemma get to that story will he come back. We got stories to share, but I want to hear your 866-34-TRUTH 8788 for a total eclipse of the heart has an answer for John Fleming.

Christian is he going up the hill, he lost his testimony. Think about the poor Jews they lost their testimony. They don't have the ark of the covenant anymore. We go back and find it 866-34-TRUTH so white and start forever now. I mean it's an unbelievable picture and the white is a huge deal and let me just jump into that because I try to figure out how to tell y'all this but I just tell you that you know sometimes Robbie is just to pray but I guess that's a good way to put it that I see things I shouldn't see I get on track session get on and and this was the case Monday morning. I was supposed to be in my quiet time is that I was thing about things that should've been think about just really struggling and in spite of the fact that it started at like five in it it it it like eight. There was not any prayer that happened and there was not anything of any value.

All that happened was frustration. So Tuesday morning I started just like going back in and just like God, you gotta help me.

Show me what my problem is why can I not get control of the stuff and he said well I'm so glad you're here. Robbie, let's talk about this and so he took me back to incident when I was 17 and actually got engaged when a 17 to grow a very messy situation. It was horrible. She broke up with me broke my heart. You can imagine all that stuff but that situation gone further than ever and it ever should have because I played with fire and he knew that this playing with fire thing was a problem that that the that I was still struggling with is so it's interesting that at that. He takes me through there and I finally forgive myself for all this stuff and I have to forgive this go for some parts of what she did and as I finish all that forgiveness stuff. This is Angie's heat.

He gives me pure gold. If this is a spiritual thing. He's like Robbie, I want you to have this gift is Jesus is phenomenally generous.

He may have heard me talk about about my innocence card.

He gave me one time and one time he actually gave me white raiment, but this time he is giving me pure gold.

I'm like really this is the same guy yesterday just couldn't get his act together and today you give me pure gold menace are you serious daily you know any zinnias given to me and as a result of that, I start to think what is this what is this gift exactly and for whatever reason I go to Revelation 318 which you'll see there that he tells a church in life idea.

You think you're closer to actually make it so you need to you need to get purchase for me by white raiment and pure gold, and I set an interestingly as I'm sitting there thinking about it. I don't know why guess because I've always been in love with the 45th Psalm. I went to where and 4513 is the wedding actually it's a Psalm that describes the wedding supper of the Lamb and there is this beautiful verse that says that the Princess is glorious on the inside but on the outside. She has a white dress embroidered with pure gold, so you see here is this like phenomenal for me, like Christian had his white shirt and again it is just the way that my week went analog and I are working on a totally new project for Christian card I theater. It's going to be Plymouth's progress and you know and the idea behind Pilgrim's progress and so I've been studying this book again and and as I am studying this thing here's here's Christian going up the hill of difficulty right and he loses his testimony but he goes back and gets right and what he's getting is inside of his bosom right and it's inside his heart and wait when you think about what was in the ark of the testimony, the original testimony, it had three items you might be familiar with. It had the law, any God says I'm a right the law on your heart. It had manna and on how many times you've been fed manna in your heart from God. I'm telling you that if you are the temple of the Holy Spirit. Guess what your heart is the holy of holies and my favorite part is the last one is the staff that butted which is actually a picture of the firstfruits because this happened but it was in elementary and Allman is the first thing that blooms in Israel. And so it is the firstfruits and what it is saying is that the staff is Jesus and he is the one that is guiding us okay and all access in your are ark of the testimony so we all have our own little testimony of writing their and you've got stuff like I got stuff right in my case, I've got my white raiment, that Jesus is giving me I've got my gold. I got my innocence card I got different stories. I got the stories of my mother sitting down with me right just like Bob has his and those are how we get our power back. That's how we get back on track. That's how we lighted up I hadn't really thought about it until you get to talking to me this morning that it's been a while since I've testified to anybody, and I have so many testimonies. God is given me so many through the years.

One of the best lessons in life when you started talk about doing things what's best day when I was little Mama neighbor were out in the woods and one of said come up with a pack of matches and we need you not to play with fire when you not strike matches. We knew not to do it but we get this ingenious idea to pile a bunch of leaves up on the stump and work on varnish known by the grand where we lit the fire and needless to say, the fire got out of control and I'm trying to put it out in an and and he takes off running to get hail and you know we got him got fire put out and I got the switching of my lifetime, left her memory with NA and that I deserved it because you know we could really done some damage and hurt some people that playing with fire do intensively.

You know when supposed to be doing and it just got out of control unit when you started talking is what I had no clue what will Don talk about that the testimonies I have I have a given testimony that's been awesome here recently I came up with the unforgiveness testimony and you know from the fire, not perseverance.

I have a a perseverance testimony right for those who don't know Bob had a fire that burned down his business which he should fire a big part of my life I put that together like it's interesting playing with fire. We can send her know. So how about yours teenager story 866-34-TRUTH 87884's number to call you and share. Where is it that you can reach in and find your testimony you're listening to the Truth Network and TruthNetwork.com. Total eclipse? I show I have to tell you after the feast, he fed me Tuesday through Friday of all the different things we been talking about in this morning. He says Robbie I want you to understand white okay I can go on that journey. That sounds like fun, and so I begin to study the word white well if you look at the word white in Hebrew, you find the root of the word white in Hebrew is heart like if heart in Hebrew is a little mad, which is a letter which is like this fire Bob that burns for God.

Okay, and then a bath which means house so inside of your heart is is like house that houses God in the fire the learning for God. That's what your heart is, and that it wants that. Believe me, it does in we go for false gods and that gets in there but when were going for the real thing were going to the real fire. By the way Bob okay so interestingly you take that lamented and the bet and you add 1/3 letter which happens to be a nun and that word is actually faith if you mean that letter means faith in Hebrew so you have this fire that burns for God heart and faith in what is it describe his white I'm not kidding you it's it's it's white when you put those three together that's what you get. Now moon is in the song of Solomon others different ways. They say meaning in Hebrew, but when they talk about the moonlight you're as fair as the moon when you look at that in the song of Solomon look at moon and that particular way it's written in Hebrew. It's exact same letters right to limit, add in the bet and then none so it's like white but then at the end of it to hey which means white expressed it because that hey means it's expressing the three letters at or before so if you think about it, but the word moon means white expressed so this morning after after he tells me all the stuff that I don't know if you know, we must be close to full moon so I'm on my way to work in.

I'm leaving at like five in the morning whatever time it is. Six.

Some family was there and the full moon is is like in my face the entire it is daylight. But guess what color the moon was always like it's bright white and it's in my face and I'm looking at that.

The guard you just have such a sense of humor. God, you're just I know he knew that I would see that is aware talk about the total eclipse of the heart like white like get the picture, you're likely get clothed in white, but more than that.

We got Patrice is enduring.

She's got a story for some sort cited Patrice Huron, Patricia, I'm sorry got that wrong Patricia you're on the Christian card I show them on good morning.

I can you sound great. Okay.

Yet Patrice had it right the first time.

Okay, so I would like to thank you all in and kind of encouraging folks to share a testimony this morning and then in light of it being Mother's Day weekend. I was reflecting exit for my grandmother. She was asked way now going on to be with the Lord that she was everything to my faith and she had a whole brood of folks had about nine kids and many of grandkids and cleaning his great grandkids. She prayed over all of us and I got to see her reading her Bible and being on her knees as a little girl I got to see that on a regular basis that she pretty much raised but you cannot get to heaven on your granny's fate has to become your Savior and she would pray over think he would take her finger and right right Jesus across our four head little kid yeah she is now Nancy was a Pentecostal granny and I remember calling her and I called her and I said granny. Guess what, I cannot say I really got saved tonight. You know the Lord came in and change my heart and I wanted to know call her and share that with her and I remember her telling me she said green screen here at the edge of the water don't care that I and the Holy Spirit need to be filled with the Holy Spirit you seek God until he baptizes you with the Holy Spirit and we got off the phone and I said, Lord, if there is more of you.

I wanted an ivory member just praying and praying and fasting and nothing happened and I didn't. I didn't have any experience or any encounter, and I start to my best friend.

I was also blessed with a very very very godly play best friend at the time and she I think I called her up at night and I said will you use this old-school word I said will you carry with me. I believe God has something for me and I want to pray. It and she said you come over to my place and we got down on our knees in her waiting room and we began to pray and she said do you feel the presence of the Lord all around you and she could barely lift her head up and I said now I don't feel anything and she said continue to pray and act like begin the praying she began to quote from the book of acts, and she said that as a prayed that in the open air. Now open your mouth that the spirit of the Lord will give them either that and I open my mouth and the weight she was talking about all of the strident weight in the room was so heavy I couldn't lift my head and I open my mouth and I begin to speak in time and I began to see the people of the language who I was speaking my language I daybook out. Kind of like that. There were Eastern Mike on get Hebrew kind of anyway. I don't doubt that I saw and I felt that glory of the Lord expert for the first time in my life at present what tangible like I could literally touch and feel the weight of God, and I just you know that that has happened so many years ago this morning you greatly encouraged me to share this. I got a call in with that… Testimony and and I just really fell on my heart know this is not just for you. Your testimony is forced someone else to hear.

It is it that our grant that is what pushes up pushes us into the finish line I spoke last by Dennis Lonnie that got shared and I got to share that with my granny and she encouraged me not to just stay on the on the edge of the shoreline will help to further go out there in the deep water with him and and and and I just got to share that with her and her encouragement for me that that I had received the baptism of the Holy Spirit LOL I mean yeah I know about is like me but you know I think that that speaks to the end of that line were I don't really care if anybody else believes, you do care for the people believe. But what's important is it sounds crazy, but you know it's true.

And it is it's very very important to your internal comfort like this was an experience that doesn't seem to make sense to most people but I know that it happened right. Thank you so much well programmed morning with wonderful that people had resort to, especially in a time like this. You all keep being a blessing to to this world.

The fact that this that I think he was 12. 11.

Tough that God is simply exercising-exercising his flabby bride and I love your definition of you know why all the word. The three words fire, heat, faith is not the truth that my own mommy does.

Take the bag and let his dad in the short on effective beaded club liveliness yes and and I thought it might be that because you know you like difficulty I haven't been about. I have never been pregnant never had a lot of kids.

But what what you do. Some women have a apologist for living by faith I live just another life. I wrote this: mother and wife. I just two simple words that yet practically dear draw you a picture of one woman's life of the word make the picture quite clear you imagine the pain that unfold 30 years day filled with laughter with headaches and tiered woman not perfect yet one who tries to be To her family and maintain the high you help your baked cake when you're a kid constantly begged for the leg. She stayed up all night mopping your ground getting a bra, you would. She listed with patient as you poured out your heart spent hours banding career then you doubted that with an answer she gave when she towed to the things you did not want to hear. There are many profession noble and true call. But you could compare with that cat that it take to keep Jack mother white.
