by Faith Church with Pastors David and Nicole Crank on Nov 05, 2023
I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Let's think about that. How incredibly made are you to eat all that you and I have eaten, and we're still alive? Can I get an amen?
This week we're going to talk more about health and nutrition, what you can do to help God help you. The Bible says, "My people perish for a lack of knowledge." Go ahead, take your screenshot. I know you'll want to do it. [Applause]
Just today, come on, you can do better than that! Fake Church RPC, everybody! Good morning! You look good! Look at your neighbor and say, "You look good!" [Applause] Tell them, "Go ahead and look back at them and say, 'I'm going to let you take me to Cracker Barrel when this is over.'" I'm gonna do it!
Yo, have you been enjoying the series on push or what, huh? This would be good! Last week we talked a lot about health and God's healing plan for your life, and this week we're going to talk more about health and nutrition, what you can do to help God help you.
But before we do, I had so many people asking me, "Hey Pastor David, where are we on the Ferguson florist center, excuse me, the Fairview Heights project and the Wellington project?" And so check it out up here. You guys are getting three million, like we're three million, three hundred seventy-one thousand. Come on, give it up for yourself! It's great!
Actually, in St. Louis, I was here this week and we met with some contractors and did some value engineering. As in, like, you know, some things have come down on prices. And sometimes, you know, the Bible says, "Those that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength." We were able to move some things around and save about two hundred fifty thousand on AC units. There was a movement of a piece of steel. Like, if we take this room here and put it here, it would save one hundred fifty thousand. And I'm like, "Done! Come on, somebody! Done!"
And then, of course, there in Lake Worth, somebody at our church has put in a brand new fence. We just put in brand new roofs. So again, give it up for all the progress that's happening. And now that they're getting paid off, then we're gonna fix them up.
How many of you all think the church, Faith Church, needs to be on every corner? You know, if there's a Walgreens on every corner, there needs to be a CVS on every corner, there needs to be a Faith Church! Can I get a better amen?
You know, so I want to talk a little bit today about things you can do. And we'll get to some of this later, but when I was a little kid, my dad knew nothing about health and nutrition. So when he was around fifty, I noticed that, man, he wasn't breathing good going upstairs. He had what I know now as a leaky gut. He had all kinds of cardiovascular issues. I didn't know anything. All I knew was what he taught me. Well, he taught me was what his dad and mom taught him.
My grandfather worked there in St. Louis at the Teamsters Union, and they would go to the Dale Bakery and buy honey buns. Anybody familiar with honey buns? Come on, somebody ought to help me right now! Come on! And then these donuts. And so they would have for breakfast, they would get to go open up this freezer, thaw it out, and the next morning they were having that.
How many of you all feel like that's probably not the best solution for long-term health? Raise your hand. If you didn't raise your hand, I'm sure that it's because of your health issues that you didn't raise your hand. It's good!
And my grandmother, she made a lot of—you guys don't know about this from the South—she made chocolate gravy. Anybody ever heard of chocolate gravy? Only a few of you. I'm just telling you, I'm sad that I even told you about it because you're going to Google it now and probably die of cardiovascular disease because of this.
So he didn't know anything. Remember this: the Bible says, "My people perish for a lack of knowledge." So I'm watching my dad go down. He's my best friend. I love him so much. I think I've got to start learning. I didn't know anything, so I started discovering health, eat, drink, and be healthy, and things that you could do.
And I tried to help my dad, but I couldn't help him too much. At fifty-six years old, just like my aunt, just like my uncle, just like everybody in his family, just like my grandfather and grandmother, he goes and expires and goes to heaven, which is great to be in heaven. But how many of you all want to go to heaven? Raise your hand. We go to heaven, but how many like me and you, like you, don't want to go anytime too soon, right?
So I had to learn these principles because the enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy your life. So today we go through a few scriptures. Bear with me here. Hosea 4, check this out, verse 5. It says, "My people destroyed for a lack of knowledge, and they've rejected knowledge." So when you reject knowledge, you say, "Hey, I don't need to know all that stuff." All you're doing is hurting yourself.
Again, my dad was a cop. He was a great guy. He went into ministry, but he didn't know anything about health and nutrition. Can I tell you that God will give you a miracle, but if you can help God, it sure helps a lot if you'll help God.
Proverbs 4, it says this. Look at it on the big screen, Sunset or City, everybody. It says, "My son, give attention to my words. Incline your ears to my sayings. Don't let them depart from your eyes. Keep them in the midst of your heart." This is a key line. Read it with me. Come on! "For they are life to those that find them."
Now, St. Louis is mostly Catholic here. It's like the Bible Belt, so it's church people. So you got to remember, bear with me. Florida, seventy in St. Louis is Catholic and Lutheran, so just makes them feel better if we sing it. So let's all shout this: "They're alive to those that find them!" Come on! "They're alive to them that find!" Come on, one more time for Dr. Priscilla! "They are alive today and health to all their flesh."
Health to all their flesh. Verse 24, skip down there. "Put away from you this deceitfulness from your mouth." Now, deceitfulness is not just what comes out of your mouth; it's what goes into your mouth.
Now, my aunt, she was really good. Anybody ever had a food addiction or know people that have food addiction or you're a foodie? Or have you ever heard of this term? So my aunt knew how to party. She had a little bitty convertible, and it was so much fun. She would go to, in St. Louis, you know about this, there's a White Castle. She'd go there for the little double cheeseburgers, which is great. And then you would go to Arby's for the fries because they were crunchy and they were curly. And I'm just telling you, she was right; they're unbelievable.
And then she would go say, "Hey, I'm going to go over, you know, Taco Bell for this," and we would go on these rampages late at night sometimes to eat all this. And then at the end, go to Ted Drewes. Again, you guys don't know anything about Ted Drewes, but it's pretty phenomenal. And we go to Ted Drewes.
Now, she died in her fifties of cardiovascular issues. True story. But she had fun as she was going. But I decided what I want to do is learn principles that would break the curse of sickness and disease on my life. Are you interested? Raise your hand today.
Okay, again, I can pray God heals you, and He will, and He will help you. But it helps God when you help Him. One more passage of scripture, Psalms 103, verse 1 says, "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me." By the way, that's a good one to pray when you forget to pray for your food. You're like, "Oh my gosh, I forgot!" "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me." It's in there, right?
"Let's throw it over myself for getting out all His benefits. He forgives all your iniquities." And shout it, class! "Who heals all of your diseases!" He forgives your iniquities, and He heals all your diseases. He redeems your life from destruction—cancer, thyroid cancer, high blood pressure, everything. He crowns your life with tender loving kindness.
Now here's the key part. Read it with me, verse 5. Come on, Sunset! "Who satisfies so that my youth is renewed like the eagle." I'm going to read that one more time. "Satisfies my mouth with good things so that my youth is renewed like the eagle."
All the time, I like to hang out with my grandson. Yesterday we went to see Paw Patrol in Fort Lauderdale, which he absolutely loves. We're working with him right now because he has a hitting problem. He's two, but he's beating up the four-year-olds at school. It's his first week at school. He went there, and they said, "Hey, if he doesn't get better by next week, he can't come back."
To which I told his grandmother on the way here, this is what they said. She's like, "I want to go talk to the principal." I said, "That's going to help a lot." It's like, "Hey, this is hereditary." She's like, "Hey, okay, that's not a good idea."
So we're like reading little books, "Why You Shouldn't Hit." "My hands are not for hitting. My hands are for loving." My hands are for—anybody who needs this book right now?
Okay, so when I go with him places all the time, I'm not saying this bragging; I'm just reporting. When I carry him in, they say, "Oh my gosh, your son looks just like you." Okay, I go, "It's not my son." And I love this part. I go, "It's my grandson." Because then I get all the bonus points. They go, "Oh my gosh, you don't look like a grandpa at all! I need to do what you're doing!"
And I'm like, "Oh my gosh, I'm just here to tell you that He satisfies your mouth with good things so that your youth would be renewed like the eagle."
So I'm fifty; I'll be fifty-four on September the 9th. Go ahead and write that down. And on September the 9th, at fifty-four, but I don't act fifty-four. I don't think fifty-four. I don't feel like I'm fifty-four. I'm not on any medication. And I don't say that to brag; I say that to report to you that if you do some of the principles that I'm saying this weekend at all of our campuses, if you push—and the push is you push back the things that everybody else is doing, and you do the things which seem hard, but actually the end result is better—because with long life, He'll satisfy you and show you His salvation.
When Daniel—remember Daniel in the Bible? Remember this? The Daniel Fast. Daniel, they said, "I will set no pleasant meats before him." And they were really upset because they said, "Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, all these guys, like, you got to eat what we're eating." And he said, "Hey, just give it a shot. And in thirty days, twenty-one days, if we don't look better than everybody else, then we'll go to your method."
But after twenty-one days or thirty days, they looked better, and they were more fit because they did what God asked them to do or what the Bible taught. So they looked better, and they felt better. And again, this isn't about looks; this is just about cardiovascular disease. This is about high blood pressure. This is about all the cancer that comes in our body.
Everybody here, one out of every four at every campus today—look to your left and your right. If you see four people there, one out of four of you are going to die of cancer, so they say, right? But if we can do something other people haven't done, we will get the results that are benefited from making these lifestyle changes that help us a lot. Somebody shout amen to this!
Psalms 139, life scripture, then I'm going to show you some stuff that I do every day. "You formed my inward parts." So every organ in your body—your pancreas, your liver, your kidney, your colon—everything that's inside that gorgeous flesh that you have, "You covered me in my mother's womb. I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made."
Let's think about that. How incredibly made are you to eat all the crap that you and I have eaten, and we're still alive? Can I get an amen? Just think about the fact—have you ever cleaned out like a Tupperware bowl that had some sloppy joes in it? You're like, "I can't get this grease off of there," right?
Anybody ever done that? So we've been putting all kinds of stuff in this, but because we're fearfully and wonderfully made, somehow we sustain. So just imagine if we did the things that God suggested we should do, how much better we would feel, how much vitality we would get, and how much longer we would live.
Raise your hand at all campuses if this makes sense. Are you interested in this? Raise your hand. Okay, it makes a big difference in your life. So you're fearfully and wonderfully made.
Now here's the issue. I was on a flight yesterday—well, actually Friday—from St. Louis to Florida. And when I got on there, the one lady, she was a pilot; she knew me. The other lady didn't know me. I tried to put in earplugs because that says, "Hey, don't talk to me. I'm sitting in the exit row." But no matter what, the girl taps me and said, "Hey, hey, you know, where are you from? I noticed a picture on your phone." And we start talking because that's what women love to do. Come on, somebody, got to help me!
And so they started talking. Come to find out, this lady that knew me, she's from St. Louis; she's a pilot. This lady here is a medical doctor. She goes on to talk, talk, talk, talk, talk. You ever see people that—she's very precious, by the way; she's a very neat person. But have you ever seen people that they talk so much, you're like, "Would you—if you ever took a breath, I would suggest something?" But come on, raise your hand, okay?
See, she's going, going, talking about her dad and how he has all these problems. He has dementia, and it's so sad. And it is so sad that she does—he doesn't know who she is oftentimes. Today she's a caregiver.
Now remember, she's a medical doctor. So I asked her a couple questions because I knew the answer to this. "How long did you go to medical school?" I knew it was between eight and fourteen years. She said, "Ten, eleven years." Okay, that's a long time.
Then I asked her, "How much do you know about nutrition?" Because here's the deal: after all that, after you're going to school as a medical doctor—and again, all the doctors at our church, we respect you; we love you. I think it's awesome. This is not a ding on doctors. Thank God for a doctor! Can we give it up for doctors and nurses?
So no digging; it's just a matter of fact. The matter of fact is you only have to take ten hours—ten hours of health and nutrition during that ten-year period. Ten hours! That's relatively nothing, would not you agree?
So when I begin to tell her about things that probably caused the problem in her father's brain and things that she could do to stem that and make that better and things that she could do now because she was afraid that if grandpa had it, it's kind of—it's hereditary. It's like ugly. If your grandpa had it, your grandma had it, your daddy had it, chances are you got it. Can I get an amen?
Look at your neighbor and say, "You must have been hereditarily good-looking in your life." Okay?
So now I'm teaching her things, and she's a medical doctor. Again, it's not that I'm smarter than her; I just took a different path. So doctors are taught to prescribe drugs. That's why there's—remember back in the day there were drug dealers on the corner? You don't see that so much more; you just see a CVS or Walgreens. I'm just saying, right?
So when you go to the doctor and they don't ask you anything about what you're eating or what's eating you, these are two big questions. If they don't ask you these questions, they just go, "Hey, take this and take this." The fact is, even sleeping at nighttime, you don't produce—your body doesn't produce Lunesta, but they try to sell you Lunesta. Your body produces melatonin.
Melatonin doesn't get produced at night if you're doing this with your phone because the light shuts it down. God made it dark at nighttime so you would go night-night. He made it bright, and so China splits it with us; we share this with other countries.
Okay, so today, right now, we are in—today, raise your hand if it's light outside. But there's people watching me today in different parts of the world that it's night-night time for them. And so God shuts our power down so we charge ourselves.
In fact, my phone is a great example. Have you ever got up in the morning and for some reason your phone didn't plug in properly, and you're like, "I got ten! I can't leave the house! My phone's dead!" Guys, so we got the little battery pack to kind of jack it up and make it go longer, right?
Well, your body's that way. It has to have sleep. Melatonin is something that obviously is something that you can take, but it's something that your body makes.
Okay, so if you don't know what to do, then you perish. So you go to the doctor. Again, love doctors and nurses; they're great. A lot of doctors go to our church, and sometimes I use medicine. There at Sunset Hills, some of the great doctors there, I don't go to the doctor. I tell them, "Hey, I got a problem meeting in the back room." They're so nice. They're like, "You got this, you got that; we're going to prescribe a drug." They'll go get the drug, bring it to me between what time I go to Earth City, come on, Earth City, and back to Sunset Hills. They'll give me the drug.
I'm not against drugs, but I am saying that what I do is very limited. If I have to take an antibiotic, you can be darn sure that I'm taking a buttload of probiotics, to which I'm taking probiotics every day because your leaky gut and gut health is the thing that makes everything in your body function properly.
But again, your doctor hasn't met—most doctors haven't been taught this. They only learn this if they are smart in the area of health and nutrition.
Okay, so let's talk about food for a minute. What you can't eat.
Anybody ever seen a Whopper? The Whopper—unbelievable! You drive past Whopper; it smells unbelievable. It's phenomenal! That's a thousand sixty-one calories, and you're supposed to get two thousand calories a day. So you can only have two of those, and you're done, or you're going to excessively gain weight because to stay fit and trim, you have to run a calorie deficit.
To run a calorie deficit, you have to burn more fat and more calories than you're taking in, to which I use a fitness pal every day. Me or Don Strange, they're in St. Louis. He logs everything and goes, "Hey, I had a donut," which I don't do. But hey, I had—I don't even know why I said that. But you just put it in there.
"Hey, I had this." Most of the time, what I eat is organic chicken. The reason why I don't eat regular chicken is because they're trying to grow chickens in thirty days, and they can grow a little baby chicken to a massive chicken in thirty days, which means they're injecting it with something that makes it grow crazy.
So if you eat the chicken, you're eating the thing and wonder why you have all these lumps and bumps and tumors. I know this is foreign to a lot of you, but I'm here to tell you that my people perish for a lack of knowledge.
I want you to ask God to help you, but I want you to help God because you're fearfully and wonderfully made, and God is sustaining you and bringing you lots of vitality that you got to help.
So that's—if you add a fry to that, you know McDonald's fries, which I love McDonald's fries. I think they're pretty phenomenal. Growing up, I thought this is the way you go. You go get a large McDonald's fries, which by the way now is six hundred ten calories.
We put that six hundred ten calories in that bag. I would take the bag and rip the bag kind of low because I don't want to reach deep. And then, like a crackhead, I would rip off the ketchup until I had like twenty of them. I'm always setting up for my lines. Come on, so much! And I put it in there, and I'd have ketchup all over me and salt—all of it.
If you've never done this, just try it one more time. Just try it once. It's unbelievable! But what I'm doing now is in one meal, not only am I not getting real food, I'm getting fake food, processed food, which is killing me, which is toxic.
Now, once you get out your phone, take a picture of this right now. I'm gonna show you a book called "Toxic." This girl, her name's Suzanne Somers. Suzanne Somers wrote a book that I've read over ten times, and the book is phenomenal. It talks about leaky gut; it talks about everything you want to know about health and nutrition, about infrared saunas, everything you need to know about health in your body that makes it incredible.
Now, by the way, I also want to show you a little—do you guys have that Instagram? We did like a screen recording because if you go get the Faith Church app today, I made them put on the Faith Church app—check this out—these are all the things that I take every day. I take more than this, but we put it on there so you wouldn't have to screenshot. You can, but you can go to Amazon also, and I linked it. I don't sell any of this, but it's the stuff that I do to eat, drink, and be healthy.
Okay, then also on top of that, there's a whole sermon in there from my kitchen right there that you can watch. It's forty minutes of me and Nicole drinking green smoothies. You wonder how Nicole got over cancer? Yes, God helped, but also, not only did God help, but we helped God through eating the right things. Give it up for our team who put that together!
You just go to the Faith Church app; you go to your app store on Androids or Apple for your phone. And somebody sent me a thing that said that they use the Android, and the reason why is because everything in the world got screwed up because Adam and Eve used an apple. But it's the truth!
Alright, now, things you can't eat. Everybody shout, "Things you can't eat!" One more time, come on, all campuses! Thanks, Ganny! You need to eat things, and I need to eat things that are grown out of the ground because when we eat things that are man-made, they are processed.
I ran into an old guy the other day, and he said, "I'll eat all the preservatives I can get at my age." But that's not what you want! You don't want stuff that's full of preservatives; you want stuff that has grown from the ground.
My daughter says, "I don't eat the stuff my food eats." So in other words, she likes to eat cows; she likes steak. She thinks this eats green grass, so that's why she won't touch salad. But I'm trying to teach her the best I can that, "Hey, listen, it's not good."
Even though that was a farm-raised cow and that was a free-raised chicken, you still need to figure out how to eat stuff that makes you healthy. Grilled chicken is a big staple of mine, and I eat it every single day. I grill it on a George Foreman grill because me and George are friends.
And I want to say, buy a George Foreman grill; it's phenomenal! My daughter-in-law makes it all the time in the air fryer; it's pretty phenomenal. When you meal prep, as in, have you ever been so hungry you started making bad decisions?
Have you ever just lost your mind and ate a bag of Doritos and Cheetos and Oreos? If it's got an "O" on it, it's good! Come on, somebody! It's just phenomenal! You just consume all those calories, and you're like, "How in the world did I eat three thousand calories?" And now you're all bound up, realizing now I need a laxative because I'm constipated, praying the prayer, binding and loosing.
And come to find out, we're eating the wrong stuff. Genesis 1, verse 27: "God created man in His own image." So God didn't make John in the likeness and image of God; He created them. And God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, subdue it, and the vast resources and services that God made, have dominion over the fish."
There's fish! God ate a lot of fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every living creature that moves upon the earth. And God said, "I have given you every plant." That's for my daughter today—every plant yielding food.
So if you—you know that eating watermelon is a great way to reduce your chances of having a heart attack? It is! It's phenomenal! You know that potassium in a banana is a great way—by the way, a nutritionist taught me a long time ago that is the stuff that God made. Like an apple—God made an apple, and it's about one hundred calories, and it's pre-packaged.
And a banana is about one hundred calories. Everything that got pre-packaged is about one hundred calories. And then if you eat it, your body and your brain sends a signal to your brain that you're full. You've never—I mean, you've never eaten five bananas. I mean, consecutively in a row, raise your hand if you have not eaten five bananas.
Okay, how many have not eaten five apples? Because you can eat one apple and go, "I'm full." But have you ever consumed the same amount of calories in popcorn or Cheetos, and all of a sudden, one hundred ten calories is nothing?
I want to try it over here saying, "Look, I promise to God, people are here in this audience. It is a live audience right now." But your body and your brain doesn't trigger that you're full because man makes stuff that's genetically modified, and genetically modified stuff that's put in your body makes you sick.
Hashtag toxic! Does that make sense? So if you skip down to the bottom, verse—very, very bottom, it says, "I have given you every green plant for food." Every green plant for food! Everybody shout, "Food!"
What your body can get used to as well. I remember growing up, I would have to have, like, for instance, my—again, I hate to throw my daughter under the bus, but you know she's already under the bus. Let's roll over a couple of times! Chick-fil-A sauce!
Okay, Chick-fil-A, if I go to Chick-fil-A, I'm not getting into Chick-fil-A sauce because I can eat a bunch of there. If I'm in a hurry, I can get their grilled chicken, and it's fine. But she'll get the sauce, and the sauce is like—Google it, fact-check me on this—it's two hundred twenty, two hundred fifty calories for one of those. She likes like four of those!
Okay? And I don't—I like it too; I'm not judging her. I just had said, "Hey, I'm gonna learn to eat this without the sauce because I can eat four pieces of chicken if I give up the sauce."
Look at your neighbor and say, "You need to lay off the sauce!"
Okay? [Applause] We all know what that means. People don't know; that's okay. We've been working on our testimony.
Anybody in here got a testimony? Raise your hand if you got a testimony! I got a testimony!
So I want to talk to you about a few things that I do every day. Now, this is not all that I do. Somebody asked me last night, "You do that every day?" Yes, every day! Because I want to look and feel young. I want to be able to pastor all these churches in all these states and do everything that I need to do.
By the way, my thirty-minute presentation up here takes about six hours to eight hours with a team of people to produce to you in twenty-eight minutes. Now, that's not all I do. I deal with attorneys; I deal with lawsuits; I deal with all kinds of stuff all day long.
So at the end of the day, I can be cussing mad, or I can go, "Hey, this is just a little core dorm that we're going to get through here." If I feel like I'm fit mentally, physically, and spiritually, does that make sense to you?
So number one, I travel with this tackle box. I'm not a fisherman, but I travel with the tackle box. Got pictures of my little daughter, so hopefully I'll redeem my relationship with her after this tournament. Money has a way of doing that. Money's not everything, but it keeps the kids in touch, if you know what I mean.
So years ago, the reason why I have these on here is because it darkens the light that goes in here that would break down the vitamins. Okay? So in here, these are things that I do every day. Number one, I take for general—the reason why I tell you for general on is I take an identical hormone of testosterone.
So the pregnenolone helps with memory loss, keeps the memory sharp, keeps my speech from being slurred. It's phenomenal! It gets rid of dementia. I take all these things here for heart. I won't get into all this right here. This is a multivitamin. You need multiple vitamins.
I don't like gummies. Just Google the difference between gummy vitamins or real vitamins. Buy good quality vitamins. This is allopurex and allaplex. I used to get allergic to horses and dogs; now I can take that every day because my body actually takes this, and when I take it in, my body is not allergic to horses.
I can take a horse blanket and rub it on my face, and I'm absolutely fine. And I haven't tried that, but I just think that it is better.
So vitamin D, vitamin C. Vitamin C is huge for cancer. If you're eating high-fat luncheon meats with nitrates in it, if I ever eat a hot dog at a ballpark, I'm taking two of these immediately because I want to get rid of the receptors that cause cancer.
So I take those every day, but I want to slow it down just a little bit because Pastor Phil told me at Weldon, "Come on, give it up for the Weldon Spring campus!" He said, "Hey, slow down!"
So one of the things to do, I drink a lot of water. Let me tell you a story about drinking water. Several years ago—about several years, fifteen, twenty years ago—I got a hot box. A hot box is an infrared sauna that sweats out the toxicity of your body.
A lady from Hippocrates—people come from all around the world to West Palm Beach for Hippocrates because Hippocrates—there's a man and a woman who run that thing; it's phenomenal. They take wheatgrass every day, and wheatgrass kills cancer with high doses of vitamin C.
So people come from all over, and they have testimonies. "I went there myself and interviewed people. I've been coming here every year for three days for fifteen years. I was supposed to die twenty years ago." And so it does work.
But I got in the hot box, and for me, if a little is good, a lot's better. Anybody like that? "Hey, if a little is good, a lot's better!"
So I'm like, "Man, hot box! I'm losing weight! I feel great!" Juice! And then all of a sudden, one night, I put my—I was in Sunset Hills. I put my feet up on the—by the way, today's sermon is going to run a little over. I don't know how much over, but it says I have three minutes, and we're not halfway done.
So you do the math on this one. Do you need this? Raise your hand if you need this!
Okay, so I get in this hot box. I'm sweating like crazy. And then one night, I put my feet up on the couch or the chair, and I could feel my heart like sputter. And I'm like, "Oh my gosh, this is weird." I don't want to tell Nicole because we just bought our city; we owed squad zillions of dollars, and I don't want to scare her thinking she's going to be a widow.
They've already got health insurance on me; they got a key man life insurance. I don't want to tell anything. This is between me and God.
Anybody ever had a between you and God moment? Raise your hand! You a liar! You're like, "Hey, you know what? I'm not even telling you. It's between you and me." So I'll leave it alone.
About a week or so later, I'm in bed. I'm in bed, and when I would lay down, what would happen is now my feet are up, and so my blood didn't pump properly, and I was dehydrated majorly and lost all my salt. So my electrolytes—I don't know that at the top, but I told Nicole, like midnight, "I think I'm having a heart attack."
She's like, "Oh my God! He's having a heart attack! Gotta call 9-1-1!" I said, "Before you call 9-1-1, call the smartest doctor I know. His name is Dr. Ted Broer." B-R-O-E-R.
And so Dr. Ted Broer, if you Google him, you'll find all kinds of videos that are very incredible. And I had gotten to meet him years ago. I bought his material because he's a genius on eat, drink, and be healthy.
So we called Ted because we developed a friendship. He taught me how to fly free, stay free, buy gold when it's three hundred an ounce, and he said it was going to two thousand. He was right on that and everything else.
So this is over twenty years ago. I called Ted up and said, "Hey, before you call, tell me what you've been doing. What has happened in your life? What is different?"
What a difference! She's digging, and Nicole ends up saying after five minutes of talking to him, "Well, he has been going to that hot box a lot." He goes, "That's it! He sweated out his electrolytes! All his sodium levels are messed up!"
And I'm just telling you right now, "Go to the kitchen, pour a bunch of salt in his mouth. Austin played ball at the time. Is there Gatorade in the house? Drink some chicken noodle soup!" And within fifteen minutes, it was gone.
He said, "By the way, you're welcome because at your age and as much crap as you've eaten, you would have went straight to the emergency room. They would have immediately ripped you open and put in stents and open-heart surgery." And he's right!
Again, not against the people at our church that do that stuff, but my people perish for lack of knowledge. So then I had to start learning things.
So here's what I've learned about water. Water is great, but what I do every day is I take water, and I take this, which by the way, if you face your chap, we put that there. Found out about this doctor that began to sell this stuff that hydrates you. It's got all the proper amounts of sodium; it has all the right salts in it, so I don't have that problem anymore.
So every day, even when I'm traveling—we just went on vacation, and I have this bad boy in my suitcase. And every morning, which by the way, in Europe and everywhere we were at, they didn't sell plastic bottled waters; they sold glass bottled water.
Because the plastic bottled water, as you know, in America, we want to sell you drugs. So if we're going to sell you drugs, well, we need you to get cancer as fast as possible. By the way, call me a conspiracy theorist if you think, but they want you to pay as much taxes as you can, but they're out of money.
So as soon as they want you to start using—want your Social Security to start paying you, they don't want you here. So it's called, you know, we want to get rid of some people. And I know a lot of you look at me weird; this is not a political statement. I'm just saying!
I'm just saying! Okay? So I put those salts in every day, and then almost all your trace minerals are gone in all water. So I put trace minerals in there. Just put a little squirt of that in there.
And then apple cider vinegar—unbelievable health benefits with this stuff right here. This is all God's stuff, by the way. Notice it's organic. And so I put a little bit of that in there. This helps your digestive system; this helps everything inside you, your colon; it helps you lose weight.
Most of the people in my world, I usually put two capfuls. I'm pretty good at this, so I kind of wing it. Anybody else learning anything in here?
So then I just simply stir that up, put that in there, and then I drink the water. By the way, when you buy this, for God's sakes, do not buy the unflavored one. It tastes like donkey hair! This is—you want the flavor! Come on, somebody!
By the way, just like the horse blanket, I don't know what donkey hair tastes like. It's just to be transparent!
CoQ10—surely you know about that. CoQ10 is great for your heart. Very, very important. Again, the probiotics—if you were to strand me on an island, the two things that I would say I've got to have: I don't have to have vitamins; I don't have to have minerals. But for God's sakes, give me probiotics for gut health and leaky gut.
And the second thing I would say is called liver oil. You'd have to eat about fifty pieces of fish to get the amount that you need to thin out your blood.
Now think of this real quick, and I'll talk more about this in a second. Picture like a pipe this big, and water's flowing through it. Now we have plaque; we got all that grease we talked about in the sloppy joe, and it reduces down, and it reduces down.
How many of you all think there's a lot more pressure with that same amount of water coming through this pipe as this pipe? Raise your hand if you see.
So this is what happens over years—our plaque in our arteries. So people have—they call me outside, "Pastor David, Bob had an aneurysm." And I think, "Man, dang it, Bob! I wish you'd have taken cod liver oil!"
Because as this goes down, the plaque on your arteries simply clogs up. It flakes off, and when it breaks off, it clogs that up, and now the blood can't get through here. The only way to describe it is my dad was kind of a mechanic of sorts. It's like slick fifty to your blood veins.
So Nicole takes it every day with this. I don't even know what this is; it's incredible. She swears by it; she takes it. I used to do that. This is—she would like, like, we need two different bottles because the way I do it is I just grab it. I haven't done this today. I'd take a swig of it, and then it wets my lips. It's phenomenal!
Make fun of me all you want, but my veins are fluid. When they check my blood—which is, by the way, because I owe so much money, the bank worries about me. Thank you! And they checked my blood all the time, and they go, "Man, you have the blood work, and you have all the—that your physical body is like you're thirty-four. How is it that you're fifty-four?"
Well, if they come to church and hear this, they would know! Come on, give it up for Jesus!
Wisdom, natural product! I can hear Pastor Phil in my head say, "Slow down! Slow down!"
So, okay, next thing I do—this I do every morning. This is a phenomenal resource that somebody turned me on to for beets. Beets! I mean, nobody wants to eat beets except Dr. Priscilla. Dr. Priscilla, our church, he's from New York. He talks like this. He's a great guy. Got him saved years ago because he couldn't breathe out of my nose.
He's the guy that does all the angioplasty—like Vicks Vapor Rub and a balloon. It opens you up, and he changed my life. And then I told him, "I want you to go to church." He said, "I'm Roman Catholic." And I thought—I didn't know anything about that. I thought it was like a Catholic that church-hopped him. Like he's a roaming Catholic.
So I just tried to find him to church. He comes to church; he changes his life. Give it up for Dr. Priscilla! Sunday, Tuesday, fifteen years!
Okay, so I told Doc, "Man, this guy turned me on to this. This is unbelievable." He said, "Okay, but he said, you know, real beets are better." And I said, "I just don't have time to do the real beet thing that you do. I could do this."
It's what—and so I believe in this product. It's phenomenal for your overall health, mental acuity, as well as especially if you have high blood pressure.
Now I want to warn you, please check with your medical professional. This is not an opportunity to sue Faith Church. All these things are suggested to you by a homeschooler. Come on, somebody, right now! This is as good—this is worth what you paid for it—nothing!
Okay, now we're clear on that. I feel great!
Okay, so I come to Doc. I'm like, "Hey, Doc, you know I take this." He's like, "Hey, you know what? I was thinking about that. You talked to me last week about the beets versus the real beets. Is your urine red?"
He said, "My urine's red." I'm like, "This is way too much personal information! I don't care! My urine is not red!"
But I bet if I took enough of it, it would be. But I just thought of something last night when I was preaching this. I'm going to bring some food coloring and go, "Doc, look!"
But anyway, this is phenomenal. And again, with the Faith Church app, you can figure that out.
Something else, just real quick before we go, is let's talk about vitamins versus whole food supplements. Doc believes—several doctors at church believe in whole food supplements. I believe in it as well. This is Catalan; it's pretty phenomenal. It gives you all the necessary things that the food doesn't get you.
The food in our system today, in our world today, all the ground and the nutrients have been depleted of all the vitamins. You're just not going to get the right amount of vitamin C divided by A, indeed. Does that make sense to you?
So we got to supplement it through supplements. Now again, most medical professions—not all, but most medical professionals don't know anything about supplementation. They know about drugs.
So you got a problem; we're going to write your prescription for drugs. Don't care; get out of here! Real quick! We don't want to be full of drugs because the drugs have side effects.
So people that try to lower their blood pressure, I can lower your blood pressure right here with this and potassium. And then if we lose the weight, immediately the blood pressure goes down.
How do I lose the weight? One, we talked about we're not going to eat Whoppers. Thank you! Apparently, these people are, but most of us are not going to eat Whoppers.
Okay, so if we change the way we eat, we change the way we think, we change what goes out of our mouth, and we change what goes into our mouth, we can eat and live long and healthy because God designed us to live that way.
Come on, give God praise today at every campus—Ferguson, Royal Palm! Oh yeah!
Okay, so I believe a lot of our doctors don't believe in supplements; they believe in whole food supplements. I believe in both. I think it's better than nothing.
So I believe in taking that. I also believe that children are a future. Teach them well and let them lead the way.
Anybody else believe that? This is something I do. How many of you all wash under your armpits? Raise your hand if you wash under your armpits. If you don't, don't raise your hand!
Anybody wash your hair? Anybody brush your teeth or stroke your dentures? Raise your hand!
Okay, so we clean all this, but we don't clean this. This right here—I hate to embarrass you, girls, but you have nose hairs too. And so the hairs are there to filter out. By the way, guys, you should shave those ones that are hanging out too.
Lows like that! Not a hair on your head, but you got one that's hanging out your face!
Okay, but what I learned years ago after flying on a lot of airplanes is this right here. And again, download the picture chat; you get it every time I get an airplane.
Remember, I was on the airplane. I pour this in here with salt, and watch this spray. I pour that in there just like that. See that? Oh, let's see that!
And I go forward with the plane and not get that stuff. You gotta clean! If you clean under your arms and you clean your teeth, you got to clean your nose!
Have you ever heard you got to keep your nose clean? Come on, somebody! I made that up on the spot! That's pretty good, actually!
Okay, I'm putting them all away at one time.
Okay, the second—the other thing I do, and I really hesitate to do this, this is silver. Silver is one of the most incredible antibiotics that you could ever take. It's God's antibiotic!
Silver, you can put it on a wound; it'll heal it. You can put it in your nose; it'll heal you. Phenomenal! If you go to your health food store or to Whole Foods, you're going to find this bad boy, but it's going to be like ten parts per million.
Notice this says a thousand parts per million. I have one ten times stronger than this that you only get through doctors. But I use it. Here's what I do: one, you take silver, and you can lay it under your tongue. Under your tongue is one of the most soluble areas in the world.
Like that, it's called—my whole body eventually I swallow it. Some people on the internet say, "Will you take too much of it? You'll turn like blue." You'd have to drink a butt ton of this to turn blue.
And by the way, these are usually people that have a Big Mac hanging out of their mouth that don't know Jack about health and nutrition. Like, "You're turning red from your high blood pressure!"
Okay, here's the part I didn't want to do, but I will do it, especially for you, St. Louis, because I love you so much. This is weird!
Okay, Florida, listen. If I get off an airplane, watch this. I'm gonna stick this—believe it or not, this is going to be weird, and I know you're going to put it on Instagram, and I'm gonna look weird. But if I get off an airplane, you can be absolutely positive I'm doing that right there!
The doctor taught me this. He knows all about angioplasty in the nose. He said, "Put the silver in your nose." Go ahead, take your screenshot. I know you want to do it! I can feel it right now going through.
There's three canals in your nose, and all three of those bad boys are being soaked. I feel all in my throat; it's going into every fire in my being. You done? You got your picture?
Okay, these are coming out. Who can you hold this for me, man? [Applause]
And again, silver—it's phenomenal! So if somebody comes out to me, they go, "Bathroom, braver mate, and they're spitting, pray for me! I got the virus!" God bless you!
And you can be sure when I go home, "Up the nose with a rubber hose!" Can I get an amen right there? And that's how you stay healthy! Give God a hand for all that stuff!
Last thing, magnesium. Anybody ever heard of restless leg syndrome? Okay, especially if you've got to go to sleep and you need to take some kind of—you know, God forbid you take a Tylenol PM. But if you are taking Tylenol, people are like, "I gotta knock myself out! I got this pressure!"
Or whatever, you're like, "Man, now my legs!" What happens is your body starts leeching the magnesium wherever necessary to run your heart. Your heart is electric; it's electric!
And so the magnesium is something you have to have for heart health, and so it'll start grabbing it. That's why many times people have restless leg syndrome.
So every night before I go to bed, I take—this is the kind I take. Nicole takes the powder, which is great because she used to be a crackhead, so she loves snorting that powder.
I didn't mean it! No, I didn't really! I didn't look good!
And so then you're going to sleep better. People say, "I'm gonna sleep like a baby." You don't want to sleep like a baby! They scream; they yell; they wake up; they pee the bed! You want to sleep like an old man on the bus!
Quick! Everybody shout quick! Gonna be a quick work!
Okay, last thing I'll share with you because I know I'm way over on time, but raise your hand if you're okay with it being over on time. Almost all of you! Some of you, you didn't raise your hand. I want to talk to you in the back. I'll be out back by the red team.
This is something I figured out recently through some people. I went up to some people first of all. I like to talk to older people that look good. You see some people, they're like...
