Things That Destroy Your Prayer on Yom Kippur

Many people that don't come to the whole year come and sometimes they don't realize that the point of is to come to Hashem and plead with him on yipool specifically the key is to say I'm sorry but not I'm sorry and then give me a million dollars. I'm sorry. Where is like begging Hashem to give us another day to live, another week to live, another month to live, another year to live. Begging Hashem. So, what's the what are some of the things that are going to destroy a prayer? There are a few things that could destroy a prayer. A person comes to bessid completely unprepared and he doesn't know that he's not allowed to wear leather shoes and such. So he says, "I bought these shoes specially for the you didn't buy for the you bought it to show off because obviously if you knew anything about the you knew that you're not allowed to wear these leather shoes." Or sometimes you see these women wear this fancy dress but it's only covers half the body. Doesn't cover the whole body. covers half the body, sometimes even less. Say, "Oh, I bought this dress especially for the says if you cared about the you'd stay home with such a dress, I'm not even sure if you're allowed to wear it to go to sleep. Forget about going to the house of God." Or sometimes you see people, they come to the beset, but the whole time all they're doing is talking to people. They're talking to each other. Oh, so you bought that real estate. You bought that house. What do you think of that investment? What do you think of the stock market? Hey, how's business doing? How's the the whole time this anyone that knows anything about yipur is crying his eyes out. But this guy's talking about business. Oh, what about you know what? Why don't we buy the aliyah together? We'll be partners. Noah usually goes for 15,000. So instead of one of us shelling out 15,000, 20,000 by ourselves, let's be partners. Next thing you know is five people partnering up on aliyah. It's like a business deal but they forgot what the aliyah is about. They forgot that what the aliyah is about. No, it's Yeah. But do you know what the vid says in that aliyah? If you knew what David is saying in that prayer of if you understood who the vidame was, you'd realize that just in the beginning of tail beginning of tale, he starts off by saying the the the most praiseworthy person is a person that didn't hang out with losers, with people that went against God. So you that you're talking in the middle of prayer, he's talking about you. You that he's talking about you. So you're buying the is saying about you the whole time on in every single time he says punish the punish the ones that are going against you. Why? Because says same thing likeu says god gave you everything. How can you go against them? You idiot. How can you go against them? I'm not saying everybody needs to be or everybody needs to be Mosher Rabenu. If you're going to go to a place, you know that there's rules in every place, you go to a court, if you decide regular court, civil court, if you start talking with your friends, the judge can arrest you. You can't talk. You can't even wear a hat at in America. You can't wear a hat in a court. If you start talking and the judge hears you, he can arrest you or at the very least they'll throw you out. There's no care in the world of embarrassing you, not embarrassing you. The place of court is not for you to socialize. What makes you think that this court of of of of flesh and blood of people of laws that are based on deserves more honor and respect than the house of God. Why? Because God's not going to arrest you. But God can kill you though. You know that. So in this week's God tells you this. He says in chapter 32 verse 39 says. I am he. See now I am he. What does it mean? I am he. says, "See now that I I am he. I'm the one." What doesn't mean I'm the one. There is no God with me. I don't have any partners. There's no God with me. I put to death and I bring to life. He's reminding you what you didn't know. You read the whole You read five books of Moses. You still don't know what God is the one that kills or brings life. He says, "Maybe you didn't. Maybe you didn't get it. So I have to remind you again before you talk in or any day of the year realize that is there. If he's not there you shouldn't be there. If is not inside your you shouldn't be there either. We should go to a place where hemm is there. So that means you're talking in front of me. He's judging you and you're talking in front of what do you think of the business deal? Oh, what do you think of that girl? Or what do you think of this guy? Oh, that guy's a real loser. Oh, that [Applause] in front of you're committing a crime in front of says logically logically listening and believing is stupid. Says forget laws. It's a big sin. It doesn't forget about that. Just logically believe someone says to you about someone. Hey, so and so said you are this and this. Like someone came to me and said, "Hey, so and so said that this friend of yours said you are some this this and this." Believing a person like this says is irrational. Doesn't make any sense at all. Doesn't make any sense at all. Why? He says the person that's telling you about somebody else is committing a crime in front of your face by saying he's committing a crime against Hashem in front of your face to you. He's telling he's saying about somebody else and you're witnessing this cuz he's saying it to you and you're going to take his testimony over the guy that's innocent. Didn't do anything. You don't know if he said it. You don't know if he didn't say it. But until you hear him, until you see him say what he said, he's innocent. So you're taking the word of a criminal or for someone that's innocent. So he says says you don't need to be a big religious person to know not to listen to. It doesn't make any sense. Why would you take the testimony of a criminal? But we add to this, if we're going to talk in Yonip, why should Hashem listen to criminals? You're committing a crime in front of him. Talking about this one, talking about that one, talking about business during the holiday. Talk about business. You're committing a crime in front of him and you're saying, "I'm sorry." That kind of sorry, you should stay home. Stay home. Don't don't go to bed. Stay home. It's better. Why? Maybe somebody else can actually pray without you. So B says, "I am he. I'm the one I'm the one that puts to death." In case you didn't get it by now, I'm the one that puts to death. Whoever dies, I'm the one that decided. No one dies in this world without me saying it's time. It's time has to have my approval. I'm also the one that brings to life. No one ever gives birth in this world. What am I saying? That's it. It's time. Bring this nama to the world. None of the I am only I am the only one. No partners. He says I have no partners. I struck down and I will heal. I'm the one when there's a hurricanes, wars, plagues, etc. Shem says, "Let's not fool ourselves. There's no one else other than me." Where was God in the Holocaust? He says right here, "I struck down." It's me. I did it. Where was God during the hurricane? Me. I wrote it. I did it. He right here. I struck down me. I did it. What about the miracle that happened where the hurricane last second removed itself from certain people's houses? Removed itself from certain Jewish communities. Certain people were saved. Says, "Oh, that's me, too. I will heal." Miracles. No such thing as nature. I am nature. Let's not fool ourselves and think, "Oh, he's lucky. Oh, he has luck. He has mazal. There's no mazal. Shem says I'm the one. I am he. I'm I the I'm the one that heals and there is no rescuer from my hand. So he says in a pursuit there is no rescuer from my hand. He says once I decide I decide there's nothing you can do about it. We have yum kipur in front of us. We didn't do that good on. No one can be certain that shah they were great. No one. Why? We did sins sometimes like a cow. We sacrificed a chicken. We did sins that we have to pray from here until the end of the world. We prayed for a few hours. And even the few hours, we weren't really thinking about the prayer all the time. We're thinking about a few other things. Sometimes we're thinking about did I leave the car lights on in the car outside. That's what you're middle of prayer. Tell me somebody here never thought about the car in the middle of prayer or their job or their daughter or their son or their friend or what this guy said or what this guy looks like or what she said or how come she's wearing this or how come she's wearing that and why did he say this and why is he looking at me? You're telling me all of you have no one else? I'm the only one that thinks in their head once in a while. So, we had a day full of prayers, but the prayers weren't always uh the greatest. Hashem said, "I know. I am he. I know that, too." So, you have Yonipu. So, with Yonipu, Abu Thai, Yonipu, please be quiet and focus on prayer. Focus on talking to God. It's your last chance. >> I urge you to open up your heart, open up your wallet, support this incredible cause.
