Well, it's time to bring it on with your e-mail questions.

And this first one comes from Robert who says,

my sister is always claiming to see signs from God.

She'll find something like a ribbon while taking a prayer

walk and say that it's God telling her that he's

working on her prayer request.

Isn't this just wishful thinking?

Is she deluding herself by taking everything as a sign?

It depends on her walk with God.

You know, if she has set up signals,

and if God and her have a relationship together,

and each of these little things means that the dear father is

talking to her, don't fight it.

Let her enjoy it.

Now, maybe God isn't in certain things.

But that's her problem, not yours.

So you know-- but the joy we have

as believers is we can see the evidence of God in a raindrop,

in a bud on a flower, in a little song of a bird.

You can hear God and see God all over if your eyes are open.

OK.

OK, this is a viewer who says, dear Brother Pat, how

do I find freedom from sex, fornication, adultery,

prostitution, and the like?

I want complete freedom from porn,

and I need insights and prayer.

Thank you very much.

Boy.

Prostitution too, which means that your out buying it.

So you're watching it for free.

It's coming in the internet.

We are saturated with sex.

Our society is saturated with it.

It's available everywhere you turn.

There are movies on the internet.

There are movies on television.

They're everything you can conceive of.

There are advertisings.

Victoria's Secret have a whole special on CBS.

Everywhere you go.

Everywhere you go.

OK, so the female body's being shown at us.

And you know, it brings about lustful thoughts.

What do you do?

Job said I made a covenant with mine eyes

that I would not look upon a maid.

We have to determine that we're going

to make a conscious decision if this is a problem to you.

And if you are obsessed with thoughts--

and you obviously are-- it means that you don't watch porn.

It just means you don't do it.

You just don't do it.

You say how do I do it?

Well, you just stop.

And you say no.

And the same thing with these other

triggers that triggers these lustful thoughts.

The other thing is you need honestly

to spend time in prayer with the Lord and in time reading.

How will a young man cleanse his thoughts?

By taking heed there to according to thy word.

That's how you're going to cleanse your thoughts is

by reading the Bible, and immersing yourself

in the Bible, and repeating the Bible,

and memorizing the Bible.

You got to do it.

I mean, you say, how do I do this?

This is something that-- pornography

is a terrible addiction.

And I think to say-- to minimize it would be a mistake.

It isn't just something you say in the name of Jesus, bang,

and you're free.

No, it doesn't work that way.

So how do deal with it?

Ask the Lord for deliverance, but then

day by day-- Paul said of a truth in Christ, I lie not.

I die daily.

There has to be a day dying to this stuff.

Do you think also, Pat, that it helps to have a plan?

You know, you always talk about nutrition and things.

Just wanting to be thin doesn't ever get you thin.

You have to have a plan.

And you can use some of the things you're talking

about right now to replace--

Exactly.

---what you we're doing before.

Day by day.

In 21 days and a habit is formed.

The other thing is the Bible says

it's better to marry than to burn with desire.

So it may be that you don't have a soul mate, a help

mate, a wife, this legitimate outlet

for the emotional feelings that you have.

So the best part of it-- but it ain't easy friends.

So I'm trying to comfort you to the fact

that God will work with you.

But don't just think it's a walk in the park.

You have to come to the party, right.

Oh, yeah.

OK, this is a viewer who says, do

you have any suggestions on how to deal with an out of control

8-year-old when your husband lets

her get away with everything?

She was a wonderful baby.

Now she's 8 years old, and she's playing me and my husband

against each other.

Every time I try to discipline her,

he steps in, defends her, takes her out of timeout,

and then proceeds to put me down in front of her.

I don't know what to do.

Do you have any suggestions?

A little 8-year-old girl is one smart little kid.

And she's already learned how to play you,

and she's playing daddy.

Oh, daddy.

Oh, they can-- little tears.

You can ball up.

And oh, you know, mommy is so mean to me.

Blah, blah, blah.

I mean, listen.

The thing that you have to do is something

that my wife insisted on.

And she was absolutely right.

We've got to be a unified front in relation to the children.

We cannot argue about discipline with one another.

We cannot have a joint conflicting point of view.

Mommy and daddy need to be together.

And you and your husband have got to work that out.

If you have to get a pastor or get some professional

to deal with it.

But he's got to behave himself and agree with you.

You've got to join together and discipline your children.

We leave you with today's power minute from John 14.

Peace I leave with you.

My peace I give to you.

Not as I give to the world.

Do not let your hearts be troubled.

Do not be afraid.

We'll see you tomorrow.

Bye bye.
