The two text editors that I use the most are Doomy Max and NeoVim. Doomy Max is a GUI program. It's much more fully featured as far as a fully featured IDE. It's got a lot of plugins and a lot of sensible defaults that most people wouldn't enable anyway already baked into it. And that's really why I love Doomy Max. NeoVim on the other hand, it's a terminal based text editor and it's very minimal out of the box. Unless you spend some time working on your NeoVim config file and you enable a bunch of plugins, NeoVim really isn't like a fully featured IDE in the sense that something like Doomy Max is, but you can turn it into that. In the last couple of days, I've been working on my NeoVim config to try to make NeoVim behave a little more like Doomy Max. So let me switch over to my desktop here and let me launch Doomy Max. Doomy Max, typically you're going to have some kind of start screen or dashboard with Doomy Max. Now this is not the Doomy Max start screen that you would typically see. I've got a custom dashboard that I created here for my Doomy Max, but you'll get a dashboard. And one of the cool things about Doomy Max is they have the which key plugin enabled out of the box, which most Emacs users typically will install which key, which key tells you what the next possible key bindings and their commands could be. So if you start typing a key, for example, space on the keyboard is the leader key here in Doomy Max.  And then the next thing I could type, for example, would be the plus sign, which adds a buffer to the current perspective or whatever the key binding I was searching for. That's a really nice functionality. Let me open up a terminal and let me launch NeoVim. Now NeoVim, my NeoVim that I've been working on now has a dashboard similar to Doomy Max. And just like Doomy Max, I have enabled the which key plugin that is available for NeoVim. So if I type space, which is also my leader key in NeoVim, now I get these hints of what the next possible key in a key binding involving the space key could be. So let me show you a little bit of how I did this. So let me go ahead and open my NeoVim config. And I've got these hints here in the dashboard as far as key bindings. And you see one of the ones I have space FR for find recent files. That is the exact same key binding that Doomy Max uses. So I chose that for this. So if I do space FR, it launches the telescope plugin and telescope is a plugin that is made by our friend TJ DeVries, who I interviewed just a couple of weeks ago on the channel. He is a NeoVim core team member and he also creates this very popular telescope plugin for NeoVim. And now I could search for a recent file. And one of the recent files I've been working on, of course, is my init.lua file for NeoVim. And if I go to the bottom of this file, so if I do shift G in Vim, of course, goes to the bottom of the document, I'll get to the plugin section. Now I've spent some time with this plugin section. It's actually most of the fall here starts with this comment plugins and then return require packer. So I'm using the packer package manager plugin manager inside NeoVim, which is very similar to something like use package inside Emacs. So if you're used to how use package works with Emacs, you're kind of used to how packer works. So the way packer works is you have this statement here use and then the name of the plugin. And essentially that tells packer that you want to install that plugin, you want to use that plugin. But inside this use statement, other than just the location of the plugin, the name of the plugin, you can actually add other information for example, specific configuration stuff for the plugin. So it basically tells packer, Hey, if this file is not installed, install it. And if it is installed, you know, here's some configuration options. I want you to go ahead and set up so theming or key binding information and things like that can go inside some of these use statements. So let me show you some of the plugins that I've actually went ahead and added to my config here in the last couple of days. The first thing I added was the dashboard, which you saw dashboard. They've got a lot of really fancy screenshots. And there's a lot of options for the dashboard. Mine was a very vanilla, very plain and quite frankly, I kind of like it being kind of plain. I certainly wouldn't want to go crazy with the lol cat colors that some people in these screenshots are using. But the dashboard I think is a nice touch that way you have a start screen for Neo VM because by default when you launch Neo VM, if you didn't have a dashboard, you would just launch directly into a empty buffer, right? You just have an empty page. There's no hints as far as key bindings. If you forgot certain key bindings, important key bindings, for example, like, you know, how to quit Neo VM right now, because I have the dashboard, I have all the important key bindings that I need right here on the dashboard laid out for me, as well as, you know, I added some funny little tips. I don't know if you guys can see this. Let me zoom in the tip I have up under the ASCII R tip to exit Neo VM, just power off your computer. And of course, then I got some funny stuff here at the bottom. If I'm using Neo VM, then my Emacs config must be broken, right? A little text editor humor there. So I added the dashboard. And again, I added TJ DeVries, his telescope plugin, which is a fuzzy finder. And this is a really cool little plugin as well. I also added this plugin as well, which is called Telescope File Browser. And as you can imagine, it's kind of like a file browser file manager that uses the telescope plugin. And then I also added the witch key plugin as well. And lastly, I went ahead and added org mode as well inside Neo VM. Now I have actually tried out org mode in VM and Neo VM before because there's there's a few of these org mode plugins that appear on the scene every now and then. And I will say that don't get your hopes up if you're an Emacs user about using org mode in Neo VM, because org mode in Neo VM, all the plugins I've tried, they typically do like 10% of what org mode in Emacs does. It's just because of the nature of it. Emacs has been developing org mode for probably 20 years now. It's actually been, it's no longer even a plugin for Emacs. It's actually built into Emacs. It's actually been a native part of Emacs now for I think at least, at least 15 years. So because of that org mode is always going to be a first class citizen in Emacs and in VM and in Neo VM. It's probably always going to be a little clunky. But I do spend a lot of time writing and editing org documents. And in case I wanted to do this inside Neo VM, I went ahead and added the org mode plugin. So let me get back to my Neo VM config here. And let me go to the top of the document. And really what I want to do is I want to go back to the dashboard. If I do colon to get into command mode, I could type dashboard and it would actually just take me right back to the dashboard. And several of the key bindings I have on the front page here are actually telescope related key bindings. So find recent files, I think find files. And of course file browsers, the telescope file browser plugin. Let me show you how that works. Space FB. Now this is the file browser, right? The file manager that uses the telescope plugin, right? So it's basically the telescope fuzzy finder. And it acts exactly like a file browser. So I can use the arrow keys to navigate. You can't really use J and K to go up and down because J and K, of course, are gonna, you know, do this, right? You're actually going to start doing a fuzzy finding using J and K. And let's say I wanted to navigate to a file or a directory in my home directory, which is where we're at. So let me go ahead and search for, well, let's search for documents. Then I could hit enter. I could get into documents here. If I wanted to go back up a directory, we're already on the dot, dot alias, which of course is the alias for it, the parent directory. So if I just hit enter, I will go back up a directory. If I hit escape once to get into normal mode and escape again, it will actually just escape out of the telescope file browser. Now I had space fr for recent files. And this is a telescope command as well. If I actually get back into the config file, let me do a search for telescope. And there it is. And you can see my key bindings here that I've added. Leader fr is key binded to run the command telescope space old files. So that is the command that actually runs that. So space fr is running telescope old files. And you can say I've mapped in for normal mode, space ff is telescope find underscore files. So space ff is the telescope find files command. And then again, escape twice to get out of that. And then I did a find word. I mapped that to space fw. And what that is is the telescope live underscore grip. And that's the command. So space fw for find word, find a specific word. Doesn't look like it suggests anything here. But if I started typing, you know, telescope, for example, is going to, I guess, look in my dot files repository, which is actually a get bear repository for my home directory. One other cool thing is I added a space HT for telescope color scheme. Now space HT is a doom emacs key binding I use to change the color scheme of doom emacs. I also wanted that exact same key binding and functionality inside neo vim. So space HT runs telescope color scheme, meaning run the telescope fuzzy finder and list all of the available vim color schemes, right? So now I could switch to any color scheme. So that is how that works. Space HT again, let me search for one dark to go back to the one dark color scheme. And just below the key binding section here of my net dot lua, I had this section here that I called dashboard. So this is some settings for the dashboard. This is the ASCII art that you see when I launch neo vim, right? And so that's the ASCII art that gets printed. And that is that tip line where it says just power off the computer to quit. And then this is the key binding hints, right? So the description recent sessions and shortcut space SL. So if I open a new terminal and enter neo vim here, you can see recent sessions space SL. Now that just prints out the text to the dashboard. It actually doesn't set a key binding for any of these, right? Just because they appear here, that does not mean that that's the actual key binding that's going to run a real command, right? You still have to go into your key bindings and actually make sure those key bindings exist. So let me close that window. And then really, that's all I've played with here in the last couple of days is just getting those handful of plugins working. Just so now when I launch vim, you know, I can actually get a proper start screen, if you will, with the dashboard. And I'm really happy that I now can do space FR because that's like, I'm so used to that key binding and do me max space FR for fine recent files and then immediately have access to all the files that I've been working on lately. And of course, this telescope plugin, I'm really enjoying this as well. Now the which key plugin, which should give me a key binding hints, honestly, I don't find that terribly useful in NeoVim, because honestly, you don't have as many key bindings to remember inside something like Vim or NeoVim as you do in Emacs, which literally has thousands and thousands of key bindings and custom programs and stuff built into it that you couldn't possibly ever remember. And that's why which key is so important as an Emacs plugin for NeoVim, I could probably take it or leave it as far as the which key plugin. Do I really need it? Probably not, but I'm going to leave it in my config for a little while to see if it grows on me. For those of you wondering how org mode looks, let me go ahead and do space FR for fine recent files. I'm going to do dot org just to find something that ends in dot org that I've worked on here recently. So read me dot org. This is for my dot files repository. And you can see it is not a GUI program, right? NeoVim has to run in a terminal. So it really doesn't have any kind of fancy bullets. Obviously images don't render because this would be an image inside Emacs, this link to this thumb dot ping file here. And of course, that's just a limitation of terminals.  But other than that, it does have syntax highlighting, right? As far as org documents, all right, you can see the headers are blue. You can see all the org mode links are red. You can see the regular text is white.  I should find something with source code blocks. Let me do space FR for fine recent files. So let's get into the telescope plugin again, and see if I can find my doom config dot org. Have I worked on that? I have not. So instead of fine recent files, let's do the file browser space FB and by default, the telescope file browser does not show hidden files because my doom config is going to be in the dot config directory, but it doesn't show that here in my home directory by default. But I believe if I do control H that will toggle on show hidden files. And now when I search for dot config, there is that directory. And now let me search for doom. And now we're in that directory. And now config dot org. And I could hit enter. And if I scroll down a little bit, let me find some source code blocks. Yeah. And they have syntax highlighting as far as the beginning and ending statements of the source code blocks. But the code inside the blocks themselves, it doesn't look like that has any kind of syntax highlighting it. This is probably though, the fault of me not having at like a emacs list syntax highlighting plugin enabled for neo vm because how many people honestly use neo vm to write emacs list probably not that many. So I probably should search for a elisp plugin for neo vm and it would probably correct that. And I'd probably get some pretty nice syntax highlighting for the source code blocks themselves. The org mode tables, they look great, right here inside the org mode plugin for neo vm. So I'm pretty happy with that. So overall, I'm pretty happy with the plugins that I've been playing around with the last couple of days. If you guys want to see my latest config file, I've pushed it to my dot files repository on my get labs. So you guys check that out if you want to see what I've been up to.

Hello, my name is Olga Tgeblevich and I'm president of West Pomeranian region in Poland. My original 1.7 million inhabitants is still ahead of the peak of coronavirus pandemic as only 21 cases have been detected in our region so far. Regional authorities are particularly important in Poland as they are responsible for hospitals and the healthcare. Therefore, we currently focusing on purchasing additional equipment, additional beds for hospitals and organizational preparations. On the other hand, we are preparing an anti-crisis package to reduce the harmful effects on our economy and to protect jobs. Together, we must overcome this pandemic. Europe can do this together. Be responsible and stay safe. All the best for you from West Pomeranian region.


So the first time I went to Gudrat almost 10 years ago, I got into raptures about the beautiful monuments dating back to the times of the Chaurukya dynasty, the famous Sun Temple of Modera. Here, the great stepwell of Patan, or the Jain Temple of Taranga, made on me the greatest impression with their elegant proportions and their delicate sculptures. Since then, I have had many occasions to travel to other parts of India and to discover many other styles of civil or religious architecture from various periods. But the so-called Maru-Gurjarath style from the Northwest has remained one of my favorites. Besides, the medieval texts from Gudrat and Rajasthan I had decided to specialize in are roughly contemporaneous with these monuments. And they could incidentally allude to their construction, embellishment, or decay. For instance, the allegorical drama I translated in my doctoral thesis, the Mohara Ja Parajaya, or Defeat of King Delusion by Yash Spala, alludes to several Jain temples that the famous Jain King Kumarapala had built in his capital city and other parts of his kingdom. In order to understand this text, I had to get acquainted with the technical aspects of Indian religious architecture, and that is how I came to read different studies written as a subject by renowned scholars such as Madhusudandaki. For describing the complex structure of Indian temples, most of these scholars have made use of a wide range of technical works, or, sorry, they have found in various kinds of texts from ancient and medieval India. Indeed, architectural matters have been specifically dealt with in a great amount of treatises on building or craft the Vastu Shastra and the Shilpa Shastra. They can otherwise have been included, among other topics, in religious works such as the sectarian Agama or the encyclopedic Puranas. Since the words pertaining to the architectural technicalities are often missing in modern dictionary, specialists have generally appended a glossary to their studies on the Indian temple. These glossaries can be very convenient and helpful tools for describing a building or grasping the meaning of a difficult passage, but they present one major disadvantage in that they rely on sources which may post-date the monument or the text under consideration. Thus, in an article on the Western Indian Jain temple, Madhusudandaki analyzed this particular type of building in 20 chief constituent parts that he named in conformity to medieval sources from Gujarat and Rajasthan. Yet, it must be noted that, accepting a fragmentary Vastu Shastra and another manual on architecture called the Vastu Vidya, all these texts were written after the end of the 12th century. Consequently, the terminology that Daki drew from them was probably news from the 13th century onwards, and one can safely make use of it for analyzing Jain temples, such as the famous ones built by Vastupala and Tejaspala at Girnar or Abu. But as regards earlier buildings, it may be anachronistic. And for that reason, it must be handled with caution. For instance, the Jain temple of Taranga, mentioned above, was built in the second part of the 12th century that is before the composition of most manuals on Jain religious architecture from Western India. Actually, it is one of the rare surviving parts of an ambitious architectural project that King Kumarapala launched between his conversion to Jainism in 1160 and his death in 1173. According to his spiritual teacher and court poets among Hemachandra, Kumarapala made the earth adorned with temples of Girnar in almost every village. In the Kumarapala Pratiboda, or Enlightenment of Kumarapala, a procreate work achieved by the Jain poet Somaprabha in 1185, the king in person says, I quote, now that I have understood the true nature of God, I will order the construction of Jain temples everywhere. End quote. Most of these temples were called Kumaravihara after his own name. And Jain authors willingly extolled their beauty in brief or at length. Besides Somaprabha and Yashaspala, who flourished under the reign of Kumarapala successors, there are two court poets of Kumarapala who dedicated a whole poem to the most important of this Kumaravihara, the one which stood in the capital city of Patan. Vardamana wrote a Kumaravihara prajasti or eulogy of the Kumaravihara. And Ramachandra composed a Kumaravihara shataka, or century, or hundred verses on the Kumaravihara. What I intend to do now is to see whether these poets merely relied on conventional images for describing these monuments, or if they gave an accurate account of their shape and decoration by using specific words. Thus, it could be ascertained to which extent the vocabulary recorded by later treatises was already in use during the 12th century, or if there were other words for describing the Jain sacred complex. That the descriptions of Kumarapala's temples are informed by the codes of Kavya style is an evidence. Indeed, the court poets had to display their political skills and to present in the most original way these buildings in order to celebrate the magnificence of the king. Therefore, their texts abound in puns and variations on stereotype motifs which were supposed to enhance the beauty of the monuments. The way King Kumarapala himself depicts the great Kumaravihara of Patan in Somaprabha's poem, is highly representative of these embellishments. I quote, on my comment, has been erected here the Kumaravihara, lofty, charming like the Mount Ashtapada, endowed with 24 Jain shrines. It's golden amalasara makes it yellow so that it looks like the Mount Meru and the golden flagstaffs, which it supports shine like wishing trees. Its pricks being the golden pillars, its leaves, the silken canopy's drone up, its flowers, the hanging strings of pearls, its fruits, the golden water pots, the genuine creeper of beauty shines in this place, sprinkled by the thousand waves of brightness coming from Sri Parashvah's body. Made out of moonstone, the main image of Parashvah installed there makes the people's logicize and fall like the image of the moon. As for the many other images made out of gold, silver, or brass, is there anyone they do not maze? The way the poet insists here on the height of the temple is typical of the lottery style. The Shikara, or tower, which rises above the main image of the temple, is usually said to touch the sky or liken to the highest peaks. Accordingly, Soma Prabhak here compares the Kumara Vihara with two famous mountains, the Ashtapada and the Meru. Besides the height, another feature of the temple highlighted by this comparison is its preciousness. Since in gene cosmology, mountains are said to be made out of gold, silver, and burial. No ordinary stone appears in the poems as building material for a gene worship place. On the contrary, all its constituent parts are supposed to be built with various kinds of metals or precious stones. In his poem, Ramachandra mentions Sapphire, Emerald, Ruby, Katsai Gem, and so on. The colored rays emitted by these materials inspire the poets with many striking images. A special mention must be made of moonstones and sandstones. According to poetic conventions, the former are said to melt when touched by the moon rays, while the second allegedly emit sparkles when touched by the sun rays. A lot of images based on these properties can be found in Ramachandra's poem. Notwithstanding the conventional devices poets had to use in order to extoll the beauty of the temples built by Kumara Pala, one may find faithful accounts of either general layout of the Jain temple or the details of its ornamentation. Indeed, poets were obviously acquainted with the technical vocabulary that architect and other artisans involved in the building of temples made use of. One may note, for instance, that the right words are used in particular descriptions for the constituent parts of the tower that stands above the main image of the sacred complex. Not only the spire is called the shikara, but the subsidiary spires or little turrets, you can see around the main one, are also accurately called shringa. As regards the cogged wheel here, which crowns the shikara, Somaprabha calls it the mirroble on fruit, amalasara, in conformity with the treatises. This amalasara is separated from the shikara by a narrower section, which we cannot see on this picture, that the theoreticians call the neck griva, and in keeping with this anthropomorphic vision of the temple of the tower, the summit of the shikara which supports the neck is called the shoulder skanda. Ramachandra uses either this word or its synonymous amsa and evokes many times the staff danda here, which springs from this shoulder and supports the banner dvajah or ketu. The poets also lay stress on specific details of the building such as the various sculptures which decorate its outer walls and its superstructures. The water pots kalasha or kumbha are mentioned in Somaprabha's work as well as in other poems, and Ramachandra devotes many stanzas of his poem to the lion figures or to the images of celestial ladies. So here for instance, lion and the shukanasa of the shikara. For instance, Phyllis Granov has related one of these stanzas by Ramachandra which describes a young woman annoyed by a monkey to sculptures preserved in extant monuments. This picture of my slide was taken at the step well of Patan, and here you can read the stanza in Phyllis Granov's translation. There in that temple, the statue of a lady who struggled to hold fast to her girdle as a monkey untied his knot, made young galants feel desire and confirmed the steadfast in their rejection of sensual delights. It disgusted the pious and made all ladies feel embarrassed while it made young men laugh and young girls wonder. The exactitude of the vocabulary can also be noticed when Ramachandra mentions the torana or nominal arch erected within the precincts of the temple, or when he calls the lintel which goes over the door frame and utaranga in conformity with architectural treatises. Elsewhere, Ramachandra correctly employs the word Jali for designating the famous latest windows which are a testimony to the craftsmanship of India and artists. So this is an example from taranga. And another instance of Ramachandra's acquaintance with architectural science can be found when he explains does the perfumed water used by devotees for bathing the image of the Gina goes out of the temple, I quote, by the curved body of a Makara whose mouth is a water channel made out of a cut's eye. The monster shaped pranali or water channel, the poet evokes here was actually a common feature of medieval temples. As instance, by this picture taken at the temple of Taranga as well. So you can see the curved body of this Makara on the northern side of the temple. Moreover, these poetic descriptions of temples are useful not only for ascertaining whether such or such technical words were employed at an earlier date, they may also improve our knowledge of this scientific vocabulary. Indeed, poets use some words which may have been endowed with a technical meaning although they are missing in the glossaries set up by modern scholars. For instance, in the latter quotation, Ramachandra apparently used the word Tata, slope, in order to express the curved aspect of the water channel of the body of the Makara. Even though the Sanskrit commentator of the text pretends that the word Tata is merely intended to enhance the beauty of the text, Tata Shabdaha Shobartaha. That Tata could function as a geometrical word referring to a curved figure is further proven by other stanzas of Ramachandra's poem, wherein its feminine counterpart, Tati, applies to the curved spire characteristic of the Nagara type of temple. Another interesting point is that no occurrence can be found in these poems of the word Jagati which designates in Vastushastra the platform of the temple. Instead, Ramachandra uses many times the word Vedi which means altar in a Vedic context. In architecture, it usually refers to the lowest part of the temple outer wall. This is this part. But in the poem of Ramachandra, it is obvious that Vedi means the whole surface on which the temple stands like an offering on an altar. So I think that this is quite interesting to see that a word so commonly accepted as Jagati is actually missing in this text from the 12th century. And one last example of what these poems teach us about the technical vocabulary concerns the term Vitana. In most glossaries and studies on architecture, Vitana is said to mean ceiling. Yet in Ramachandra's poem, Vitana seems to be synonymous with chandrodhaya which refers to a canopy or hanging piece of colored cloth. For instance, in one stanza, some people believe that the outer walls of the main temple are painted because of the reflection on their polished surface of the multicolored Vitana. Since the poet talks about outer walls, it is impossible that a ceiling stands in the air whereas nothing prevents from thinking that canopies were stretched between the temple and the surrounding cloister. To conclude, the giant poets did not content themselves with describing temples by means of conventional images although they mastered the codes of Kavya style. They did know the technical vocabulary of architecture and use it for detailing all the splendors of these monuments. In all likelihood, Ramachandra, Somaprabha and the other poets met artists and architects at the court of their patron as suggested by references to them by Ramachandra in his poem. He talks about Shilpi and Sutradhara, for instance. Therefore, this text should be more carefully taken into account for expending our knowledge of the Jain sacred architecture from Western India. Thank you.


Come on, you know, I'm an old lady now. There you are. Okay. So, so nice to see you again. Thank you so much. You as well. I'm, I feel terrible that I made you feel like I never want to speak with you. You did catch me on a very thin day. I was not as healthy as I am right now in LA, so I needed to get my, my energy up for that night. And I apologize for not dissing you, but garnering my strength for the evening, but I'm on the other side of that cancer and I'm doing wonderfully well. So I've got a lot of get up and go, we'll have to do another event and I'll dance with you. Thank you. Okay. I want to ask you a question. Sure. So you were like the rock to Johnny, right? You were the rock. Did you have any, like any times in your mind, even though you projected being the rock and the anchor, maybe in the back of your head, you said, Oh my God, what are we getting ourselves into here? Probably 16 or 18 times a day. You know, we took ourselves out of a comfortable place, rolled the dice, had nothing to lose, had nothing to gain necessarily, and put our hearts and souls into doing it. But I had young children, I had a home, I had several expenses I had to pay and the one thing any and every manager will tell you, or a record person in the beginning, there is no money to be made. You know, most of what you do is allow a bill to build up until such time as you can do a creatively effective contract for the band, which then puts them in a money making position and puts you back on your feet to stand and do it again for some other band. That's the cool part. Yeah. Yeah. Everybody gets to go on somebody else's shoulders. Yeah. Yeah. That's, that's cool. That's cool. And congratulations to you and Johnny for all the great work you've done.  And I gotta tell you, the audible is a who, as a person who walked through this putting the book together with Sean, he did all the writing, but hearing it in his voice just makes it so real, so really precious in the sense. And then the extra material, oh my God, nobody's ready for that.   You know that.  Well, you know, I respect the man and what he said, but you know, he wanted it to be something extra special. He didn't want people to think, oh, go out and buy another format. He wanted it to be, here's a real treat from me to you. And this gives a whole different side of the business than they got in the regular printing. Could you see a movie? Could you see a movie? Johnny, can you see a movie? I really, you know. You too. Can you see a movie? I could see a movie. I could see a movie out of this. He's at us all the time and Johnny goes, well, as long as that plays me, I'm okay with it. Who do you want to play you? I don't know. Who do you want to play you? Me? Oh God, I have really, oh of course Gwen Stefani. I have no idea. No idea. Johnny, I don't know, who does Johnny want? Who does Johnny want to play him? He wants Seth Groban. Okay. You know what? It would work in his early years and his early years, it would work. I love Seth Groban. He was younger. Yes. It was definitely that nice Jewish boy from the Bronx with the tight curls. Yes. With a nice sense of humor, with a great sense of humor. I think it would work. That is actually probably one of his most endearing, sometimes very bad, because he doesn't always, he tells old man jokes sometimes, don't tell him and said that. Sean says, hey Marsha, you got a hello from Sean as I'm reading and Tom says hi as well. So a lot of people are saying hi to you. Hi guys, thanks for the shout out. All right, that's pretty much it. I appreciate it so much. It was lovely to speak with you and to pass you over to the man himself and listen to his voice. All right, have yourself a great day.


I want to teach you today how to pray powerful, effective prayers. Perhaps you've grown frustrated in your prayer life and you feel like your prayers are going up, but that no one is there to hear them. I want to teach you how to pray effectively. I'm teaching on keys to answered prayer. And I'm going to teach you how to pray biblically. I'm going to teach you how to pray powerfully so that when you pray, the prayers that you pray have just as much power in them as the Word of God. That is what I'm teaching on this edition of Spirit Church here on Encounter TV. But first, Stephen Machezuma is here with me as usual. He's going to lead you in some worship and then we're going to get right into this lesson. Here is Stephen Machezuma. I want you to know that an impossible situation is the perfect setting for a miracle. If you find yourself up against the wall like you're facing a situation that there seems to be no way out of, that is the place that God will meet you. The truth is that if where you're living doesn't require faith, then you're not in the will of God. So when you walk in the will of God, you're going to face circumstances and trials and pressures of all sorts. You may feel exhausted, you may feel tired, you may feel like you've given all that you can to a situation and that nothing seems to change what's going on with that situation. Well, I want to show you how to pray powerful, effective prayers. Prayers that are prayed with such faith and with such power that they will transform the situation around you. You're believing for something that's difficult to acquire by human effort. Good, because then it requires the involvement of God. If what you are praying for can be done in your own effort, then it doesn't require faith. So if you're facing a situation where you're saying, Lord, I don't know how I'm going to get out of this one. Or Lord, I don't know how the need is going to be met. Lord, I don't know how anything is ever going to change for the better than you are in a place where prayer can make a difference. An impossible situation is the perfect setting for a miracle. And any moment can be your miracle moment. You don't know what the next 24 hours hold. You don't know that this week that God's not going to come through for you in a miraculous way. You don't know that things aren't going to transform in an instant. You could be hours away from a miracle and not even know it. You could be minutes away from transformation and not even know it. The scripture says in Hebrews chapter 11 verse 1, Now, faith is the substance of things hoped for. The evidence of things not seen. I want to emphasize faith. And you'll notice that's going to be a constantly running theme all throughout this message. Faith, faith, faith. When Jesus healed the sick, he would tell them, Your faith has made you whole. The scripture says that without faith, it's impossible to please God. Hebrews 11 1 says that faith is the substance. It's the actuality. It's the reality. It's the attainment of the things not seen. It's something that's real. In other words, the faith for a thing is just as good as having that thing. The faith for a saved family is just as good as a saved family. The faith for your healing is just as sure as your healing. The faith for your deliverance, for your breakthrough is just as sure as the deliverance and the breakthrough itself. Faith is the substance of things hoped for. It's the actualization of it. And it is the evidence of things not seen. In other words, your faith is evidence of the existence of God. Your faith is evidence of the miracle working power of God. Your faith in action brings about the actuality of a thing and it produces real results. So I want to show you how to pray prayers that result in answers, that result in things changing, that result in transformation, prayers that result in the miraculous. And this goes beyond miraculous healing. This could be something you're believing for in your family, in your relationships, in your emotions, in your finances, in your ministry. I know there are ministers watching me right now. You're growing frustrated in your ministry and you're saying, Lord, I've done everything I know to do. And it seems like nothing is changing. Nothing is working. Well, this is exactly the place where a miracle is needed and that's good news because then the Lord can get involved. But first, I want you to notice that when it comes to receiving from the Lord, it's never, I shouldn't say never because sometimes God does in His mercy, respond instantly. But for the most part, there's a process to receiving from the Lord. And many people want to start with receiving. They come to the Lord and say, okay Lord, I prayed this prayer, I'm ready to receive. And they don't realize that they're skipping many things, many principles involved in praying the prayer of faith, in praying to the place where you receive answered prayer. So number one, here's the first key to answered prayer. Number one, is yielding to God's will. First John chapter 5 verse 14 says, and this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He heareth us. If we ask anything what? According to His will. Now there are some people who pray prayers that are against the will of God. In fact, I've had conversations with fellow ministers when we talk about the many open doors to ministries, the many opportunities that present themselves to us in our everyday life. But the question is not what is the good thing, the question is what is the God thing. The question is not what is beneficial, the question is what is divinely appointed. And when you start to look for the divine appointments, as opposed to just opportunities, you begin to pray according to God's will. You cannot force God to do anything and God is not reluctant to bless you. So it's not as though God is saying, I don't want to bless this person and so I'm going to make him pray, pray, pray. I'm going to make her pray, pray, pray. No, on the contrary, prayer and the waiting is the process by which you become someone who can receive everything that God has for you. So when you're praying for something, it's not that the Lord is saying, I'm going to make them wait for the sake of waiting. It's that if you don't go through the process, you can't handle the answered prayer. If you don't go through the process of becoming the person who can receive in faith all that God has for you, then the blessing will crush you instead of promote you. So God allows us to go through the process when we yield to his will. It's about yielding to his will. If we pray according to his will, if we ask according to his will, he hears us, if we don't ask according to his will, he does not hear that prayer. Now, here's the thing. Think about a police officer. Now, you hear a lot of things going on with police officers nowadays, but we need to pray for our police officers. They help to maintain order. I understand there are some bad members of the group. That's true of any group. But when we pray, think about a police officer. A police officer is acting according to his authority when he enforces the law. The moment they step outside of the confines of the law, they are in violation of that which they are supposed to defend. So the law does not back every action of every police officer just because they wear a badge and just because they represent the law. Only when an officer is acting according to the law is that officer able to operate in the full authority given to him by the law. And only when you pray prayers according to the will of God, which is known by the word of God, will you begin to see results in your prayer life. If I'm praying something that God does not want to have for me, or give me, then I'm not going to see that thing manifest in my life. And that's not God being cruel. That's God being merciful. Thank God he doesn't give us things outside of his will. Now, we by our own free will can force certain things to happen, but that doesn't mean that God cannot intervene in his mercy and stop those things from coming to pass.  For example, there are certain things that God cannot do. God cannot lie because he is truth. God cannot sin because he is holiness. God cannot do the illogical because he is the basis of all logic.  The Lord cannot violate his own nature. He just can't do it. In the same sense, and that's not a weakness, that doesn't mean God is not all-powerful. It just means that it's what sustains him as an individual, as a being, is his holiness. Why is he going to violate his holiness? So God not doing those things or being unable to do those things doesn't mean he's not all-powerful, because that would not be a power, that would be a weakness if God violated his own nature. So in the same sense, God will not violate his will in answering our prayers. Now, we by the flesh can force things to happen and those things will do far more damage to us than good. But ultimately, we must pray according to the will of God. So number one, you have to ask yourself, am I yielding to God's will? Number two, hearing God's word. The scripture says in Romans chapter 10 verse 17, so then faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Now that scripture in Romans chapter 10 verse 17 is in reference to salvation. So the context is salvation. Those who hear about salvation have the faith to receive that salvation. But the principle itself can apply to many things. When you hear a promise of God, when you hear what God is offering, it inspires in you, it stirs in you faith to believe for that thing that God has promised. So you need to hear the word, you need to hear what are the promises of God so that your faith can come alive. Mind your surroundings. Be careful who you allow to surround you. Be careful who you allow to speak into your life. Be careful who influences you. Be careful what movies you watch, what music you listen to. Not because we're religious and we think that God is going to condemn us for such things, but because of what it does to us as individuals. It's because what it does is it disrupts the communication between God and us. And so when we start to involve ourselves in things that we hear that are not of faith and are of the flesh and are of the demonic, we begin to chip away at our faith and our faith begins to dwindle and we lose that stirred faith. We lose that power to receive all God wants to give us. If you don't have faith, it might as well be that God never promised you a thing because you won't receive it anyway. We need to hear. We need to hear in faith. Now it's possible to hear with your natural ears but not with your spirit. Jesus said in Matthew chapter 11 verse 15, He said, He who has an ear let him hear. He was talking about a spiritual ear. He was talking about being able to hear in the spirit. He was talking about to be able to buy the Holy Spirit, hear the promises, the voice of God. And so the Holy Spirit needs to breathe life onto the promises of God and we need to daily fill our minds with the word that we become people of faith and when you hear the word of God you know what his promises are and then you ask what according to his will which was the first point and it's more likely to come to pass on our life so long as we do the other things. Number three is thinking in faith. Proverbs chapter 23 verse 7 says, For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he. The mind is both the root and the battlefield. It is the root of all that you do and the mind itself being rooted in the spirit or in the flesh. It is the root which results in the fruit of your life. So if the mind is rooted in darkness your fruits will be of darkness. If the mind is rooted in light your fruits will be of light. So as you think so are you but the mind is also the battlefield. It's the place where we fight the most intense war that will ever fight. Probably, I would say this, the essence of spiritual warfare is the fight to believe God's truth over the enemy's deception. I think that is the summary of spiritual warfare. That is the shorthand definition of spiritual warfare. It is the fight to believe God's truth over the enemy's deception. Why? Because all the enemy's attacks are going to be grounded in deception at least against the believer. So we need to be people who think in faith. We need to be constantly thinking in faith. We need to yield to God's will hear God's word and think in faith. And when we're thinking in faith as we're praying we're not double minded which is important because number four is key which is believing in faith. In James chapter number one verses five through seven the scripture says this if you need wisdom ask our generous God and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking but when you ask him be sure that your faith is in God alone do not waver for a person with divided loyalty or double mind is unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown and tossed by the wind. Such people should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. Did you hear what that scripture said? It's a powerful truth found in James. You won't receive anything if you're double minded. If you've wavered back and forth. Faith does not waver. Faith is certain. Faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen. When we believe in faith we start to see according to how God wants us to see. I thought of this scripture too while putting this together and this is one of my favorite portions of scripture in the book of Psalms and it's found in Psalm chapter 77 and I'll read beginning at verse 16 this is what the Bible says here when the red sea saw you oh God its waters looked and trembled the sea quaked to its very depths the clouds poured down rain the thunder rumbled in the sky your arrows of lightning flashed your thunder roared from the whirlwind the lightning lit up the world the earth trembled and shook your road led through the sea your pathway through the mighty waters a pathway no one knew was there no one knew that pathway was there that is except God in other words God makes a way where there seems to be no way facing a situation you're in trouble it could be financial could be in your family could be in your ministry could be a spiritual crisis that you're facing could be something you're facing with a sinful habit that you want to stop and you're looking at the situation and everything in you is saying there's no way there's no way I can overcome this there's no way I can get out of this there's no way this can change nothing will ever be better but remember you serve a God who makes a way where there seems to be no way he's going to get you out of it he's going to get you through it no matter what you're facing he's able to do exceedingly abundantly above all we could ask I think you just have to believe those are possible only believe don't doubt don't waver you need to be fixed on the promises of God and say to yourself I will believe the Lord I'm not going to believe my circumstances I'm not going to believe what my mind tells me I'm not going to believe what the enemy tells me I believe the promises of God and his promises the scripture says are yes and amen they are certain I have confidence in the certainty of the promises of God it will come to pass no exceptions you are not an exception to the promises of God you are not an exception to the power of God if God will do it for someone else God will do it for you he will come through I promise you that listen to me I promise you that he's able he has never let anyone down God will bring his will to pass in your life so don't waver believe in faith be certain be stubborn don't let anyone convince you otherwise believe the promises of God so number one yielding to God's will number two hearing God's word number three thinking in faith number four believing in faith number five declaring the word Romans chapter 4 verse 17 says as it is written I have made thee a father of many nations before him whom he believed even God who quickeneth the dead and calleth those things which be not as though they were in other words God is able to call things into existence God is able to call things that are not as though they are think about this God simply spoke and caused all of reality time, matter and space to simultaneously come into existence that's power that's power behind his declaration God has the creative power to declare things and to cause things and to move things just by the sound of his voice I want you to think of that power think about what that really implies that God his word alone is enough to create a world that's powerful you don't think that God who created this world is able to move things and influence things in your favor of course he is but the question is not getting God to act according to my will it's getting you to act according to God's will God is not our servant God is not someone who's there to meet our every whim if we apply the right mechanics I'm not teaching you faith so that you can get God to move for you I'm teaching you faith so that you'll get moving for God so that you can say okay Lord I'm going to align myself with your will and in doing so it brings down the blessing of God because whatever is in his will is blessed and at perfect peace so prayer more than it will change anyone else will change the one who is praying prayer more than it will change anything else will change the one who is praying so we declare by the word though we still can declare because we're like our God we are like our God in Genesis chapter 2 the scripture says that God breathed life into the dust and man became a living soul that was his ruach his spirit his breath his life moving into the dust and when it entered the dust life came about in other words I came from my father when God created the birds he said he spoke and things came into existence I mean just think about that power I'm just I know I'm fixated on it but I think you will come to appreciate it the more you think about it when God wanted to bring forth fish and creatures of the sea he said that the waters bring forth he spoke to the sea when God wanted to bring forth animals and creatures on the ground he said that the earth bring forth whether he brought forth vegetation that way but when God created you he spoke to himself let us make man in our image we preceded from God therefore we are like him we're created in his image we're created in his likeness now religious people can't stand this teaching because religion the entire philosophy is based upon getting you to hate yourself to such a degree that you accept punishment let me tell you something you are like your creator and I don't care who that upsets God created you that way he did not create you to be in sin sure God punishes sin sure man is sinful I acknowledge all of that it would be unbiblical to deny that but at the same time recognize who you're from recognize who you belong to you're royal you have an air of elegance about you think about the blood of the king courses through your body that's a powerful thing to consider and so in considering that we realize that we like our God have power in our words now I'm not saying that you can speak and create anything you want because then that would be that would be too much power if God gave that to man so God did not give man that sort of creative power but even though God did not give man the power to create through his words he did give man the power to influence through his words in other words what God created can be influenced and cultivated by man through action through thought and through word so therefore your words are both indicators and to some degree creators I don't mean they create in that they bring from nothing I mean that they create in that they shape what is already formed what is already created so God has given us the raw materials of creation with which we are to form and to create and move according to his will and so your words are indicators and creators they create around you and they indicate the condition of your heart Proverbs chapter 18 verse 21 says death and life are in the power of the tongue and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof there is power in your words number five obeying God's commands now this is going to be a big one so I want to stop here for a little bit so just to recap to where we are keys to answer prayer number one yielding to God's will number two hearing God's word number three thinking in faith number four believing in faith number five declaring the word number six obeying God's commands now look at this verse now when we look at this verse I want you to really look at this with me ok John chapter 15 verse 7 look at what it says here's a condition ok let's not read it yet I want you to really I'm going to tell you what to look for here's a condition that Jesus is giving to us now he says if you do this I'll do anything you ask me for that's a powerful statement and this is coming from the highest authority this is Jesus himself promising us something so what is he promising us John 15 7 look at what it says but if you remain in me and my words remain in you you may ask for anything you want and it will be granted think about what he's saying you can ask me for anything you want you can ask me for anything that's Jesus making you this promise you can ask me for anything you want and it will not it may be granted not it might be granted not it will be granted at some point in the Jesus it will be granted if what you remain in me and my words remain in you now because this is such a powerful result I want to know how to meet that condition I want to know how to remain in him well this is what the scripture says 1 John 3 verse 24 it tells you what it means to remain in him 1 John 3 24 look what it says whoever keeps his commandments remains in God and God in him by this we know he remains in us by the spirit he has given us it's a little more direct even here 1 John 3 verses 21-22 beloved if our heart condemn us not then we have confidence toward God and whatsoever we ask we receive of him because we keep his commandments do those things that are pleasing in his sight look at what it says whatsoever we ask we receive of him we receive whatever we ask because we keep his commandments that's the cause because we keep his commandments and do those things that are pleasing in his sight so because we obey he answers if you're not obeying God your prayers will not be answered they'll be hindered look at what Psalm 66 says chapter 66 verse 17 this is a very pointed way that the psalmist phrased it Psalm 66 verses 17-19 the scripture says for I cried out to him for help praising him as I spoke here's where it's very pointed if I had not confessed the sin in my heart the Lord would not have listened listen to that again if I had not confessed the sin in my heart the Lord would not have listened but God did listen he paid attention to my prayer you know the scripture says that God resists the proud at James 4-6 he will not hear the proud now of course if a sinner repents God hears that prayer why because that prayer is according to his will and the person has changed the posture of their heart from resisting God so James 4-6 tells us that God resists the proud but he gives grace to the humble you cannot come to God in pride and be saved so those who come to him to be saved are humbling themselves before him and in doing so they're positioning themselves to be able to receive from him so God resists the proud God does not answer selfish prayers that's James chapter 4 verses 2 and 3 if the prayers are prayed so that we can consume them upon our own lust or we pray from selfish motives God's not going to answer those prayers we just read that God will not answer prayers if you have unconfessed sin now I'm not talking about trying to remember every little sin you've ever done in your life and if you leave one thing out or forget one thing that God won't hear you, no talking about the position of the heart David knew that if he did not get his heart right before God that the Lord would not have heard him I don't think it's really even possible to remember everything and confess everything in that manner God resists selfishness God resists those with unconfessed sins and here's one for the spouses 1 Peter chapter 3 verse 7 tells us that if there's discourse between you and your spouse that God will not even hear your prayer then and all the married people said amen have you ever tried to pray just after you've gotten an argument with your spouse it's not going to happen you know my wife, whenever the Lord speaks to my wife or myself about each other we go and take care of it in fact my wife doesn't have to nag me because I pray so I'll go and I'll pray and the Lord will tell me your wife was bothered by this this thing that you did today and I'll think really I didn't even realize that bothered her and I'll go and I'll say Jess did this bother you she'll say yes and I ask the Lord to tell you so in that way there's communication there's divine communication and it doesn't always work that way trust me there's work you have to do to it too but if there's discourse between you and your wife or you and your husband you're not going to hear your prayer the scripture says it very clearly so number one keys to answered prayer yielding to God's will number two hearing God's word number three thinking and faith number four believing in faith number five declaring the word number six obeying God's commands and number seven asking in faith now I know we talked about having faith but this is where you ask you have to open your mouth and say Lord I'm asking now James chapter one verses five to eight we'll read it here and we read a portion of this but I want to read it to you again if any of you lack wisdom let him ask of God that giveth to all men liberally and upgradeeth not and it shall be given him but let him ask in faith nothing wavering for he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed for let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord a double minded man is unstable in all his ways John fourteen fourteen says yes ask me for anything in my name I will do it Psalm thirty seven four says delight yourself in the Lord and he shall give you the desires of your heart why does God give us the desires of our heart when we delight ourselves in him it's because we become people who can receive in faith that for which we pray prayer and waiting processes you for someone who can receive the way to your blessings from God and then you receive in faith and that's number eight but that's less on you and it's more on God that is it for the lesson I hope that blessed you I want to pray with you now let's go before the Lord before we finish I'll recap one more time yielding to God's will hearing God's word thinking in faith believing in faith declaring the word and asking in faith and then you receive so you don't start with receiving that's the finished product that process is the process of praying powerful prayers effective prayers that change circumstances and situations all around you so let's pray now and I want to ask the Lord to stir your faith because as I said a constantly running theme through this lesson will be faith and so when you have the faith to receive you've become one who can receive the blessings of God God will not give to you above your measure of faith he will not trust you above what you've been tested to receive so let's pray that God would expand your faith grow your faith and stir you to boldness and action that you might be one who prays powerful prayers that you might be one who can pray and move mountains who can pray and see the sick healed who can pray and watch the circumstances when you begin to transform I believe that I believe that's you I believe God wants to change things for you but first he wants to change you he wants to change your heart he wants to transform your nature and make you more like him so let's pray come on in faith I want you to stretch your hands toward my Father in Jesus name I pray for that one receiving this prayer right now I ask Jesus you would stir that faith Lord I pray that there would be such faith that they would ask prayers that surprise even themselves Father I pray that as they pray they would remember all that your word has said about prayer that they would in faith ask boldly and receive in gratefulness I thank you Father for the power of God that's now flowing Lord I thank you in Jesus name there's a couple watching me you're watching together you've been believing God you've been trying now it's been about two and a half years you've been trying to have a child the Lord is going to bless you you're believing for that miracle it's happening for you I believe it in faith declare it here's what I want you to do I want you to stir your faith I want you to ask the Lord and I want you to name that child you want a boy or a girl I want you to name the child say Lord thank you for so and so coming into the world and I want you to receive it in faith thank you Lord for all that you're doing all the miracles that you're doing there's a healing anointing flowing too thank you Jesus there's someone you injured your neck and the doctors are saying there's going to be some long-term damage but we're rebuking that right now in Jesus name in fact you feel like a heat coming over you go back to your doctor have him check you I believe the Lord's healing you Father I thank you I rebuke cancer Lord I rebuke arthritis in Jesus name I rebuke skin disorders skin disorders are being healed someone with a skin disorder all up on their left their left side you're being completely made whole if you look you'll see God's healing you right now in Jesus name so Lord I thank you for stirring our faith to pray bold prayers in the matchless name of Jesus we pray and I want you to say it
