TD Jake - The Giraffes & The Turtles

A must-see inspiring gospel by TD Jake

[@evertrueb3]

TD Jakes has a way of connecting messages to us like no other. This one is brilliant!

[@MotorsMechanic]

Breaking it down...

[@BABYDOLLNESTLE]

I love the metaphors he uses. THE GREAT STORY TELLER

[@KingJames432]

While the analogy is motivating, her loved ones aren't being haters by saying that she doesn't seem to 'finish what she starts.' There's no way you can be married 3 times and divorced as a black single mother and not have some deep occurrences that need to be addressed. Cute motivating analogies don't heal those wounds. When we are fortunate enough to have people be honest with us, we have to stop making them the enemy. God bless you sista! Thanks for this Brother Jakes!

"Sometimes it is not even that what they said is not true because they know certain things about your behaviour in the past, and they have defined you by WHO YOU WERE. But they don't understand necessarily WHO YOU ARE. Their poor understanding of who you are will INCARCERATE you to who you were. They will keep DRAGGING you back to your LOWEST SELF instead of EVOLVING to your HIGHEST SELF." Bishop TD Jakes.

[@michaelhassen6041]

[@MijoShrek]

T.D.. Jake's u are my spirit animal, thank you for posting this

[@bigrich9526]

The women going crazy lol such a great video TD always droppin Gems

[@brentduanefoster]

Yeah, women normally react emotionally when gems are dropped. Whereas MOST men, just sit back and soak it up and think.
I know I was.

[@alaskadiva1ladeelyke146]

Powerful message! God bless everyone whom listened to this. And bless Bishop Jakes for his words of wisdom. Amen

[@cameronr59]

Oprah doesn't even know what to do with herself! Lol I love it.

[@thedr.erick.colemanshow]

My prayer is that the lady has done the work on herself first to be able to move forward. Its clear she is lost. Its ok to have a vision, but you have to be prepared to execute. I do t think people in her circle are telling her she cant do it, they are reminding her that she has to be serious and do the work on herself before helping someone else.

[@blazegarcia5607]

Theres a lot of people out there who are told they're turtles but they're really giraffes.

[@sadiebeast97]

Thank you...this gave me energy!

[@starseedstarseed311]

[@abdalrahmandaif5243]

Thanks sincerely for sharing this world wide, that program of Mrs Oprah is not broadcasted in all countries, Sir TD Jakes is always a path finder... a gap filler.

[@patricksithole401]

Amen

[@jaytrump2537]

That's all I'm trying to do but they know I can and want it to stop at all cost but chill and watch how we bring our loved ones home

[@ladennayoung2939]

Fear is going to come, and do come to EVERYONE. There is absolutely no way to get around it. But YOU have to choose to not get into the fear, and let it overtake, overwhelm, and confuse you. IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH. You MUST choose to reject it and fight it with EVERYTHING in you. IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH.

Biblical qualifications to be a bishop: 1 Timothy 3:1-5
"This is a true saying, if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)"
>>> The scripture continues 1 Timothy 3:6-14:
"Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil. Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre; Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience. And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless. Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things. Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well. For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus. These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly"
>>> Let's look at verse 3: "Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous"
According to research a few years ago, "Bishop" T. D. Jakes THEN had a net worth in excess of US$18 million ($18,000,000) and lived in a $1.7 million mansion. He's super-rich.
>>> Let's look at verses 4 and 5: "One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)"
Bishop T. D. Jakes' daughter Sarah became pregnant at 13, gave birth at age 14.
Bishop T. D. Jakes' son Jermaine was arrested in 2009 after exposing himself and masturbating in front of law enforcement officers during a sex sting in a public park.
I would also point out: James 3:1-2
“Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness.”
The above scriptures show the standards required for a bishop, and state that teachers "will be judged with greater strictness.". These are not MY words, but the words of the bible.

[@LoveMoneySecretsTV]

You seem to be casting stones, I guess you believe your perfect and without sin, interesting, not even Jesus claimed this or did what you are doing.... so are you above Jesus? I really don't know, because I've never heard of you, I've heard of Jesus though....and Jesus' mother had him when she was 15 similar to Sarah, just a year older, interesting and oh Jesus picked 12 buddies who were called disciples and one turned out to be a traitor that sold him for money....and when nailed to the cross he forgave the thief that was on the cross next to him and gave him the gift of grace which is an unmerited favor.....no accusation, no bringing up the past of wrong doings, just beautiful unconditional love and grace......
