Put your eyes on Christ,
2
not on the newspapers, not on the television screens for your hope.
3
Your hope is in Christ.

He's the one that has made the promise that his kingdom is going to ultimately prevail.
5
And Jesus is in heaven now where?
6
He's preparing a place for us, the scripture says.
7
And Christ is going to come like a flash of lightning.
8
And for you that know him, it's something to anticipate.
9
Many of us are so taken up with this world and the pleasures and the sensualities of this world.
10
That's right.
11
The money that we make and the lifestyle that we live,
12
that we don't want to leave this earth.
13
We hold on as long as we can.
14
But for all of you,
15
the world and the lust thereof is going to pass away.
16
But he that does the will of God shall abide forever.
17
All right, y'all.
18

And another thing I wanted to emphasize is that,
26
like, whenever you watch these videos,
27
I don't just want you to,
28
like, think that, oh, I'm getting a word.
29
I'm just here to check out this video.
30
But I want you to make a conscious decision to seek Jesus,
31
to seek Christ above all else.
32
I want you to watch these videos leaving with a burning desire and a passion for Christ.
33
At the end of the day,
34
I'm just a person that God is using to spread his word.
35
I'm nothing but a tool and an instrument for the kingdom of God.
36
But you have to make a conscious decision for yourself to be like,
37
man, I got to seek for God for myself.
38
I got to have this passion,
39
this desire to read my word,
40
to pray, to seek the Lord.
41
The number one goal is for us to grow beyond the basic,
42
to grow in our passion,
43
in our relationship with the Lord.
44
I'm just here to share what the Lord has taught me and what the Lord has brought me through.
45
This brings us to what I wanted to talk about today,
46
which is keeping your eyes on the Lord.
47
Nowadays, I feel like there is so much distraction in this world
48
and we get easily influenced and easily distracted by certain things that do not matter.
49
We are turning our heads,
50
looking at other things, then focusing on Christ.
51
So much of life's worries keeps us from getting in the presence of God.
52
So much of life's struggles keeps us from getting in the presence of God.
53
And we don't realize that it's so dangerous,
54
especially in the times that we're living in now.
55
We are living in times where it is crucial for us to keep our lamps burning.
56
But a lot of us have been sleeping.
57
A lot of us have been drifting away.
58
A lot of us have been distracted by other things that are going on in the world,
59
that are going on in your life.
60
Not realizing that Jesus is coming back soon.
61
Not realizing that the Lord is not coming back for a fake bride.
62
That the Lord is not coming back for a weak bride.
63
He's coming back for a bride that is burning with passion for him.
64
A bride that is burning with zeal for him.
65
A bride that is burning with holiness for him.
66
We got to get out of our heads thinking everything revolves around us.
67
Thinking our problems are too big for God.
68
Thinking our problems are the end-all be-all of everything that is going on.
69
We are too distracted by the things of the world.
70
We are too distracted by the things that are outside.
71
Things that don't matter.
72
I've realized whenever my eyes are away from God, my thoughts become unhealthy.
73
My mind becomes unhealthy.
74
My perception becomes unhealthy.
75
First we're going to talk about keeping our eyes on the Lord pertaining to trials
76
and the struggles and things that we go through in life.
77
Early on it was very hard for me to keep my eyes on the Lord
78
because I felt like I always needed to be kind of in control somehow.
79
So even when trials would come,
80
I would struggle with letting God fix my problems and trying to figure it out on my own.
81
I'm a big overthinker and I question a lot.
82
I question a lot of things in my mind.
83
So when things would come up,
84
trials would hit, I would question whether God is there with me.
85
I would question my circumstance.
86
I would question my situation because I wasn't really focused on the Lord.
87
I was focused on my circumstance.
88
I was focused on the problem by hand instead of focusing on Jesus.
89
And when stuff like that happens,
90
you start to see things falling apart,
91
breaking down, getting worse, and becoming a mess.
92
And you tend to want to control the outcome.
93
And this was the problem for me was because I was picking and choosing what things to trust God in.
94
I was picking and choosing when I would look to God and when I would not look to God.
95
When in reality, the Lord calls us to look to him in all of our ways.
96
The Bible says, in all of your ways, acknowledge him.
97
But I wasn't doing that.
98
And this could be for you too.
99
There are things in your life that God is asking full control of.
100
And he needs you to be able to look to him at all times.
101
He needs you to be able to trust him at all times.
102
But that starts with you making a conscious decision that God will be the one you lean on.
103
That the Lord will be the one that you place your head on.
104
A perfect example of taking your eyes off of Jesus is in Matthew 14,
105
where Jesus is walking on water and Peter calls out to him.
106
And the reason I love this example so much is not just because of what happened to Peter,
107
but it's the interaction that happened between Peter and Jesus.
108
Matthew 14, 22, immediately Jesus made the disciples get onto the boat
109
and go on ahead of him to the other side while he dismissed the crowd.
110
After he dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray.
111
Later that night he was there alone and the boat was already a considerable distance from the land,
112
but fed it by the waves because the wind was against it.
113
Shortly before dawn, Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake.
114
When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified.
115
It's a ghost, they said,
116
and cried out in fear.
117
But Jesus immediately said to them,
118
Take courage, it is I, don't be afraid.
119
Lord, if it's you, Peter replied,
120
tell me to come onto the water.
121
Come, he said.
122
Then Peter got down out of the boat,
123
walked on water, and came towards Jesus.
124
But when he saw the wind,
125
he was afraid, and beginning to sink,
126
cried out, Lord, save me.
127
Immediately, Jesus reached out his hand, caught him.
128
You of little faith, he said.
129
Why did you doubt?
130
When they were in fear,
131
not knowing who it was,
132
Jesus stepped in to reassure them
133
that it was him telling them to take courage Peter in faith says Lord
134
if it's you ask me to come on the water
135
and Peter in faith got down walking towards Jesus it never said he walked
136
and started to walk around no no it says walking towards Jesus verse 30
137
but when he saw the wind he was afraid
138
when he saw the wind when he saw the storm
139
when he saw the trials when he saw the circumstance he was afraid
140
and he began to sink
141
and cried out lord save me lord save me a lot of people take this verse
142
and just look at it as peter
143
being distracted of the wind obviously we could see that right he took his eyes off of the lord
144
and he was distracted by the wind,
145
by the circumstance, and he began to sink.
146
But I wanna elaborate on something too as well,
147
because when he sank, who did he cry out to?
148
He cried out to the Lord.
149
Yes, the main part is he took his eyes off the Lord and he began to sing But as he fell,
150
as he sunk, he also looked at the Lord for help.
151
He didn't look at money He didn't look at nobody else on the boat.
152
He didn't look at anything else But he looked at Jesus to save him.
153
It is important for us to keep our eyes on the Lord Regardless,
154
no matter if you fall,
155
no matter if you sinned,
156
regardless of if you fall Ask the Lord to save you.
157
Ask the Lord for his hand.
158
Work is not gonna see you money is not gonna save
159
your mom is not gonna save your friends are not gonna save you
160
when you're in a dire need
161
when you have sunk in deep waters who are you going to call who are you going to look to
162
if we can't even look to God when we're good
163
when we're in a good situation
164
when everything is going to what everything's going well we can't even look at God what
165
if what happens when we're sinking now you want to call the Lord
166
when you're sinking when you're falling now you want to look at God
167
and all times let's keep our eyes and focus on the Lord
168
and the crazy thing is a lot of people are not gonna want to hear this part
169
because they love the world they love to gain for the
170
world you would rather me talk about how you can gain
171
in this world than an eternal life how you can prosper
172
in this world rather than keeping your lips burning for the
173
return of Christ Hebrews 12 2 says therefore since we are
174
surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses let us store off everything
175
that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles and let us run with perseverance the race marked out before us.
176
Fixing our eyes on Jesus,
177
fixing our eyes on Jesus,
178
the pioneer, the perfecter of faith for the joy set before him,
179
he endured the cross.
180
He endured the cross, scorning its shame and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
181
Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
182
First thing to mention is that Christ died for us to save us,
183
to redeem us, to make us blameless in the sight of the Lord.
184
That is something we always have to remember.
185
That Christ suffered shame.
186
Christ endured suffering for us sinners.
187
That is one way to keep your eyes on God.
188
Always remember what the Lord has done for you.
189
Always remembering that God saved you.
190
God saved you.
191
He saved you.
192
Is that a daily reminder for us every single day?
193
Is that a daily reminder that,
194
man, the Lord has actually saved me.
195
I am good now.
196
I am sealed with the Holy Spirit.
197
Is that a daily reminder for you?
198
Because that is one way of remembering and keeping your eyes on Christ.
199
But are we constantly reminding ourselves that God has done that for us or not?
200
We wake up daily every single day with other things,
201
distractions, other things in our minds,
202
not even remembering what Christ has done for us.
203
And then you grow selfish when God doesn't do anything for you.
204
You grow selfish when things don't go your way.
205
Forgetting that it is only by grace that we are here.
206
It is only by grace that we have the breath of life.
207
And I want to read this in Luke 12,
208
which is a perfect representation of the watchfulness that God is urging us to have.
209
Verse 35, be dressed, ready for service,
210
and keep your lamps burning like a servant waiting for their master to return from their wedding banquet,
211
so that when he comes and knocks,
212
they can immediately open the door for him.
213
It will be good for those servants whose master finds him watching when he comes.
214
Truly I tell you he would dress himself to serve
215
Will have will have them recline at the table and will come
216
and wait on them It will be good for those servants whose master finds them ready Even
217
if he comes in the middle of the night towards daybreak
218
But understand this
219
if the owner of the house had known at what hour
220
the thief was coming He would not have let let his house be broken into.
221
You must also be ready because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you don't expect him.
222
The Word of God says,
223
be dressed and ready for service
224
and keep your lamps burning like a servant waiting for the master to return from a wedding banquet.
225
Are we dressed and ready,
226
waiting on the Lord's return?
227
Are we getting in prayer?
228
Are we seeking the Lord?
229
Are we serving others?
230
Are we loving others?
231
We love to cry out to God,
232
Lord save us, Lord do this for us,
233
Lord do this for us.
234
But we're not even prioritizing his presence at this moment.
235
The Lord is not coming back for a weak bride.
236
The Lord is not coming back for a mediocre bride.
237
He's coming back for those that will worship him in spirit as the Bible says.
238
Those that will be on fire,
239
burning for him, a zeal for him.
240
Where's that passion that we have for other things?
241
Where's that passion?
242
Why can't we have that passion for Christ, for the Lord?
243
Being watchful in service, burning with the passion and the fire of the Holy Spirit.
244
Keeping your eyes on the Lord,
245
keeping your eyes on the Lord's return.
246
Like I said before, there's so much distraction that it's keeping us away from the things that God needs us to do.
247
And we don't realize just how much focusing on our worries
248
and on our problems takes us away from the thing that God needs us to focus on.
249
1 Peter 5a says, be alert and of sober mind.
250
Your enemy, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.
251
Resist them, standing firm in faith.
252
Distraction is going to be a downfall for a lot of people.
253
Not being sober minded, not being attentive,
254
not being watchful of the things that are going on.
255
Not getting in prayer, not truly seeking God with all of your hearts.
256
This should encourage you.
257
This should fill you with joy that I get to participate and be ready for the Lord to come back.
258
This should encourage, this should invoke such a rejoicing spirit within you.
259
That man, the Lord is coming back.
260
That I got to be ready.
261
I got to be prepared.
262
But a lot of us are so indoctrinated with the things of the world.
263
We're so captivated by the distractions of the world.
264
We're not even realizing what the word of God is saying.
265
We're not getting an impressive God.
266
We're not getting in our prayer closet and we're realizing,
267
man, I don't have the fire for God.
268
I don't have that zeal.
269
Because you're not submitting yourself in the presence of God.
270
Keep your eyes on Christ.
271
Keep your eyes watchful.
272
Away from Christ is death.
273
Away from Christ is death.
274
No matter how hard it might be,
275
yes, the Lord understands that.
276
But he has called us to this.
277
He has called us to this.
278
So you can't sit there and just whine and just want to be weak.
279
No. Give your burdens to Christ.
280
The Bible says, come to me,
281
all who are weary and broken, heavy-hearted.
282
Seek the Lord.
283
Look to Christ.
284
Don't look anywhere else.
285
Look to God.

Sottolinea che la vera speranza risiede in Gesù e ci esorta a scegliere attivamente una vita guidata dalla fede. Viviamo in un'epoca in cui siamo costantemente influenzati da elementi esterni, come le notizie e i social media, che possono allontanarci dal nostro scopo spirituale. L'oratore si pone come strumento di comunicazione del messaggio divino e ci invita a coltivare una relazione personale con Dio.

Guida Passo-Passo allo Shadowing
Per migliorare la tua pronuncia inglese e la tua capacità di espressione attraverso il metodo dello shadow speech, segui questi passi mentre guardi il video:
- Ascolta attentamente: Guarda il video una prima volta senza cercare di parlare. Concentrati su come l'oratore esprime le proprie idee e le emozioni associate.
- Ripeti in simultanea: Nella seconda visione, cerca di ripetere immediatamente ciò che dice l'oratore, seguendo le sue intonazioni e la sua pronuncia. Questo processo di shadowspeaks è fondamentale per affinare le tue abilità.
- Fermati e analizza: Dopo aver completato una sezione, fermati e riascolta alcune frasi. Prendi nota di espressioni che ti sembrano difficili.
- Pratica regolarmente: Dedica qualche minuto ogni giorno a questa attività. Utilizzare un shadowing site può aiutarti a trovare materiale aggiuntivo e arricchire il tuo vocabolario.
- Valuta i progressi: Registra le tue sessioni e ascolta come migliori nel tempo. Questo ti darà una percezione chiara dei tuoi progressi.
Implementare queste tecniche ti aiuterà non solo a migliorare la pronuncia inglese, ma anche a sviluppare una connessione più profonda con i contenuti che apprendi. Imparare l'inglese con YouTube può diventare un'esperienza arricchente e motivante se segui un approccio strategico come lo shadowing.
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
