Speaker 1 (00:03):
Wanted family. Good morning, God bless you. Welcome back to
one of Devo. It's your bro Sam Lopez aka DJ
sayd Rock. So winners with a Z the RG Live
do So Winners with a Z dot org streaming on
a YouTube page as well, which is called DJ sam
Rock and also on social media platforms that allot the
street to go through. We're back on X formerly known
(00:25):
as Twitter. If that matters to you, amen, and we're
going forward. Man. Today we're gonna talk about masked masks.
I was thinking about the Halloween season that's already among us,
not even October, and TV networks and programs, stores, homes
are being decorated, getting ready for this what I deemed
(00:50):
to be a wicked holiday season. But you know that's
here or there. I'm not talking about that today. And
it reminded me of the mask the mass it's going
to be being put on very shortly. But it's also
that's a physical mass. There's also a spiritual mass that
people put on and it's called hypocrisy. Amen. And hypocrisy
(01:13):
is something that's on God's hateless. God hates hypocrites, hypocrisy, Amen,
I take that back. God hates hypocrisy, not hypocrites, because
hypocrites is a person. Hypocrisy is an action. Hypocrisy is
something that God hates. Hypocrisy pretending to love outwardly while
(01:36):
harboring bitterness inwardly. That's what God hates. Proverbs, chapter twenty
six and verse twenty four. Ay Mass, sister Joyne, I
see you. Good morning, God bless you. Welcome back to
the morning. Demot my system, my friend, a man. My
voice is a little strange because I'm finding a cold.
But God hates hypocrisy pretending to love outwardly while harboring
(01:57):
bitterness inwardly. Right, that's ouch. That's an ouch for a
morning devo. A lot of people don't want to hear
that so early in the morning, but it's with the
word of guys, is gonna show us in the Proverbs. Amen,
do you have any questions, comments, concerns, or any prayer requests.
Please don't hesitate to leave another live chat. That's what
(02:17):
we're here for. Amen, Go ahead them put something in
the chat like where you're from, why you're listening, where
you're listening from or watching from. Amen, and we'll acknowledge
that as well. Brother John, I see you Good morning, God,
bless you. Great morning, my friend, my brother, to the
whole family. Thank you so much for you as well.
(02:38):
It should be a great morning for you and your
whole family as well. Blessing to you, my friend and
my bro. So where are we We're gonna pray. First.
After we pray, we shared us out for like sixty seconds,
and then on the other side of those sixty seconds
we'll come back and we'll get right into today's morning. Devo.
I'm calling this my mask masked, putting on the mask.
(02:59):
We shouldn't be putting on no masks. As believers. We
should be putting on the righteous robe. But the Lord
Jesus Christ, we should be putting on the full armor
of God. We should be doing all of what God
calls us to do, according to his word, according to
his spirit. Amen. So let's pray. After we pray, we
shut us out for the sixty seconds. Father, in the
(03:19):
name of Jesus, I thank you for the opportunity that
you have given us today to get into your word
first part of the day, whether people are watching this
live or listening to this life or later on, I
pray the Holy Spirit that you will move regardless of
what time that you will move in the lives of
all the viewers and listeners right now in the powerful
(03:40):
name of Jesus, that we love God will realize that
we don't have to put on a mask, and we
don't have to try to fit into places where we
don't fit in. We are in this world according to
your word, but we're not of this world. We are
from the kingdom that you have set apart for your people,
for your children. I pray Lord God a hedge of protection.
(04:02):
So much is going on, so many threats, so many
things in the world that are coming against us. But
we know that you said in the last days, evil
will seem like it's winning. Father God, we know that
you win and good will triumph over evil ultimately. So
I thank you for the hedge of protection guiding and
guarding us. I pray Lord God, that we will be
(04:24):
in your will now outside of your will, that we
will be bold and courageous to go ahead and preach
the Gospel everywhere we go, verbally, using words, using kindness, love, grace, mercy,
everything that you have equipped the saints to go do
the works in the ministry with allow us low God
and teach us and show us and give us the
(04:45):
boldness to go ahead and do that. So I pray,
Lord God, that we will not be those that are
on your hate list, that we will not be hypocrit
but we will be true spirit filled, filled with fire
of the Holy Ghost, believers, children, God, royal priesthood, and
we will move forward united and accordingly according to Your
(05:06):
word and Jesus Holy Name. We prayed this by faith,
and those who agree with this prayer we say amen
to the amen. So let's go for it. Help me
share this our sixty seconds. Then we will get back.
We'll get right into Proverbs, chapter number twenty six, verse
number twenty four. I'll be right back. H h you
(06:39):
man with back, We back. Sorry I had the music
playing stiff, but listen, Let's go for it, man, Let's
let's go for it. Let's see what the Word has
for us today. Because I think there's a lot of
people who are being misled by social media information, by
proper gander, by just things that are not true. And
(07:02):
because we are following after those popular things, those popular
belief systems or news that's being put out there, the
character bashing and all this other stuff. We need the work,
we need the Word to solidify what's true, what's not true,
what's right, what's not right. We need to have Holy
(07:25):
Spirit engaging in our hearts and minds. Thank you Team
Jesus for allowing me to share this out to your group.
And we need to know what to do moving forward.
Right there's a lot of tension right now going ony, man,
and it's only going to get worse. I know that
it doesn't sound like good news, but according to the
scriptures and the prophetic timeline of the scriptures, this world
(07:49):
is going to get worse. Hearts, the men are going
to wax cold, and people are gonna have itching ears.
They're not going to want to hear sound doctrine anymore.
They don't want to hear what they want to hear.
That feels up there flesh tank, and that encourages them
to do what they want to do, regardless of what
God wants them to do. So we have to be
(08:09):
careful and mindful of that. And man, that's why I
listen to what people are saying. I respect people's thoughts
and ideas. I just thought, I don't have to subscribe
to everything. Love doesn't mean you accept all sin. Love
means that the sinner that's in funn of you, the
sinner that's in the mirror. Amen, is forgiven, and we
know how to forgive because God forgave us. I feel
(08:31):
not myself. I feel really depressed. So we're gonna come
against that depression, sister Joan, and we're gonna exchange that. Remember,
we've been talking about exchange. Exchange that depression with the
joy of the Lord. Amen. And if you want, go
back to one of the podcasts. I believe it's exchange.
(08:53):
It's called exchange. I can't get the title right now,
but it's in the podcast list. It's in the past,
maybe last week or the week before. And go ahead
and I'll send you the exchanges depression. We have to
be careful with that because it's one of those type
of emotions that if we're not careful, it will cause
(09:16):
us to do things that God forbid. He doesn't want
us to go into a deep depression. He wants us
to be learning how to exchange those things for the
joy of the Lord. Amen, Joy of the Lord. So
I'll dm you that afterwards. Amen, when I find it. Amen,
not only are we believers but overcomers, Yes, John, the overcomers,
(09:41):
the Lord, the God of the scriptures, the Lord of hosts,
the Lord Almighty calls us overcomers. So we are exactly
it's been up insane for years. I'm not going to
repeat what the world says about me and my family.
I'm only going to repeat what the words say is
about me and my family. We're more than overcomers. We're
(10:05):
more than We're more than the world says we are. Amen.
So we're more than conquerors. The Christ Jesus, the Lord
which gives us the strength. So we have what we
need because we have who's we have who we need, Amen,
and that is the Lord Jesus. So thank you, brother John,
(10:26):
thank you joining for your comments. Let's get into this word.
Let's see what God has for us today. Amen, masks
towards I put an image of someone with a mask on.
It looked kind of eerie to me, Amen, But that's
what I was drawn to when I was putting this together.
Proverbs twenty six and twenty four. I see you, brother,
(10:49):
see on God bless you, blessing to you. My brother,
is good to see you on the morning. Debo. I'm
brow with my friend. And if you guys are are
following Seon White and his wife. You gotta follow them.
They have tremendous amount of knowledge and wisdom and understanding.
Testimonial style preaching, Yeah, we have kindred spirit man, so
(11:09):
go ahead and go ahead and follow him and the
ministry gab, give a blessing, Get a blessing. Amen. Oh
get yeah, I hope I said it right, God, bless
you bro Proverbs twenty six and twenty four Bible says,
he who hates listen to this disguises that's a mask,
(11:31):
disguises it with his lips, but he stores up the
seat in his heart. So people externally are saying, smiling
in your face, right if they's good, but they really
hate you and they hate me. They're disguising even what
they say out of their mouth. Right Wait, like, oh
(11:55):
you know we like what you're doing. Oh we hope
everything works out. So you know, that's what they say,
that's coming out of mouth, that's what's disguising with their lips.
But the Word of God says they're storing up deceit
in their heart. So it's like they're masking things, hiding things,
(12:16):
hiding their hearts. Intention So of course we only could
hear what people are saying, we don't know what the
intention of the heart is. But with God's discernment by
way of his Holy Spirit, we could even get there.
We could even know. Wait a minute, something ain't right.
It seems like what people say to us, right, it's
not matching up with what they're doing or how they
(12:37):
really feel, or sometimes it shows up in their facial expression.
That's why it's important. If you have an important meeting
with someone, try to get them on video if they're
from another country or another state, or try to be
face to face if they're locally so that way you
can see the face. There's a lot of facial expression, right,
(12:58):
and movement really can show you some things other than
what people say. And this is where we're at. I mean,
have you ever been betrayed? Have you ever been lied to?
Have you ever been slandered? Have you ever been mistreated?
(13:19):
Have you ever been spoken of badly? Or spoken down?
Some people have meetings, right, and they want to meet
with you, and then they start speaking down to you.
Instead of speaking to you, they speak down to you. Right.
We have to be ready for that because the Bible
is clear that there's people out there like that. The
Bible is clear that they have de seit in their heart.
(13:41):
The Bible is clear that they're masking what they're saying.
It might be something flowery or nice, where their heart
is holding anger. There's the other translation that says, see,
if I get it, God hates the part, right, So
whoever it hates disguises himself with his lips and harbors
(14:05):
the seat in his heart. Like holding that in the
heart is a silent killer. Right. When you have hatred
for your brother's sister in Christ, when you have hatred
against people in general, right, that's like a silent killer.
It's like killing your spirit. It's like spiritual cancer. Envy, pride, hate, right,
(14:28):
lust and all that stuff could damage you and damage
me as well. So in order for us to get
passed or through those things, Amen, in a righteous way,
we need to be in the Word. We need to
be in the spirit. We need to be satisfying our
spirit more than we satisfy the flesh. Amen. We need
to be in the word, not out of the word.
(14:51):
We need to be in God's will, not out of
God's will. And by the way, God's word is his
will for you and me. Amen, brother, eyeven I see
you bless my brother's good to see you on the morning. Devo, God,
bless you. So there's a lot going on, man, and
God keeps on drawing me to these things. And I
(15:13):
always knew that God had to hate something. I know
God is loved, but I know he has to come
against things because he's a righteous God. So God is
a holy God, a just God, a righteous God, just
and righteousness. Amen. He's a merciful God, a graceful God,
holy God. He's all of that. And I know because
there's sin in the world that he had to address
(15:38):
that sin, because he's a holy God. There's no way
that God could live in sin or allow sin to
flourish over the purpose of his creation. Right, So when
Jesus comes back, the Bible says that he's coming with
a new heaven and a new Earth. Therefore, you want
(16:01):
to think about this biblically, of this place, it's pretty
much wrapped up. That's why our battles not with flesh
and blood, a battles not with like people. I'm gonna
go and get my ratchet and go and shoot Xyz
because they disrespected me. That's the way the world handles things.
The Kingdom of God and the Kingdom people. We say, well,
(16:24):
we know this is not a battle or a war
between flesh and blood, is between spiritual principalities and high places.
And because of God in us holy Spirit, we could
call down those strongholds and keep them under the obedience
of the Word of God. But the iven says, the
word of God is God's will. A'man to that. Yes,
(16:46):
the Word is his will. The Word of God is
God's will. Yes. Yes, So hatred that masks itself right,
it's hidden malice or fake love that's condemned in the scripture.
Fake loved come in different ways. So I'm a real like,
(17:11):
I don't like to hurt people. I don't know. If
you know me, you know that I'm trying to be
as kind as I can to everyone I meet because
I know how it feels to be on the other
side of hatred. I don't want to be the hater
because I know what being hated on feels like. I
don't want to put that out there. But fake love, bro,
(17:35):
that's like, that's horrible because you're going around right say hey,
I love you. Love is an expression. Love is an
action you take action. There's no greater love in this
the Bible says, than to lay down your life for
a friend always remind me that scripture always reminds me
(17:56):
of the Lord laying down his life for us. And
the Bible says, even while we were haters of God,
he still died for us a greater love. God is love, Amen,
and he's a real love shows us real love. God
(18:16):
demonstrated his own love, his own real love in this right,
laying down his life for us, next level type of love.
But fake love is condemned, all right. If you want
to go around saying you Christians are always condemning people, well,
fake love is condemned rejecting the gospel of the Lord
(18:39):
Jesus Christ. The Bible says, you're condemned already by doing that.
Did Jesus come down to earth to condemn everybody in
the world? Did Jesus come down to earth to condemn
the world? John three sixteen, Read it real close John
three sixteen to around eighteen or nineteen, right, And the
(19:00):
Bible literally says, literally says, Jesus did not come to
contemn the world, but to give, to save the world,
and to give the promise of eternal life. I'm paraphrasing,
Ivan says, the Bible tells us also that because of
the wickedness of man, the love of man will grow cold. Yeah.
I kind of like alluded to that earlier. Yeah, the
(19:22):
wax cold by because of the wickedness of man. Now
in our former identification and our formal way of living.
Right for the Ivan, we used to be those wicked people.
We used to be that wicked man. But because of
the grace of God, the salvation of God, the wisdom
(19:43):
of God, the mercy of God, the love of God
a man, the power of God, the authority of his word,
we exchange wickedness with righteousness. That's why we have to
learn how to do these exchanges. My sister Joanne said
earlier she's battling with depression, so she's gonna learn she
(20:04):
hasn't done it already. Exchange that depressing with the joy
of the Lord. Amen. We're fighting the good fight of
faith here, and we're not all alone when a brother
or sister is down. Amen. Or we're coming to the rescue,
no man, no woman left behind. There's a kingdom that
we're in, a kingdom that we're a part of a
kingdom that we are reigning and ruling in under the king. Amen.
(20:30):
So again, God hates hypocrisy. Don't act the don't act
the part of a believer. Be a believer. Don't just
be a church goer. Be a part of the Body
of Christ. Amen. And it's so showing and telling right,
who's who When you make decisions in life, maybe to
(20:53):
leave a fellowship or leave a church, you could figure
out right away who are church people, right and who
are your brothers and sisters in the Body of Christ.
Church people know how to do church. They do it
an excellent way. It actually is useful to attract people
to a building. Amen, Praise God. But the Body of Christ,
(21:15):
we're out there in the streets and the highways, byways
and a family preaching the gospel of wherever we go.
And Man, it's more than just inviting people to a building.
It's about bringing the Bible, the scriptures, the Gospel to
the people outside of the buildings. Because a lot of
people that I come across, at least in my experience
(21:36):
of witnessing and evangelism, they don't want no parts of church.
And of this is my experience, ninety percent of the
people I've met and witnessed to they were from church,
or I grew up in church, or my uncle and
my aunt, my grandmother and my mom, their pastors and
their evangelists, and somehow along the way they would hurt
(21:58):
or they sought things that threw them off. That's why
we can't have fake love for anyone because they'll start noticing. Said,
wait a minute, Sam says he loved me, but it
looks like he's hating on me over here. Man, we
shouldn't be part of that fake love. We should be
part of the real love of God. But the Frank,
I see you, good morning. The enemy loves when you
(22:19):
keep hating, because that's one of his favorite words to
destroy people's mind. Yes, exactly, thank you, brother Frank. He
doesn't like when we love one another. He doesn't like
when when unified. The devil was a hater by nature.
(22:39):
He didn't have to be that way though, according to
the scriptures, he was a beautiful right was he a cherub?
He was a beautiful angelic host right, and he saw
the glory of God. He saw the worship of the Lord.
And because God is love, listen to this. God is
(22:59):
love because people always like, well, if God knew that
this angel is churbed. Lucifer was going to turn into
a bad guy while we allow in heaven. Well, love
allows you and I to make choices. It's not a
forced thing. No one forces you to love God, no
one forces you to believe in Jesus. No, it's the
love of God, the kindness of God that joins men
(23:21):
and woman to repentance, to know that wait a minute,
he's God, and he's right and I'm wrong. He's the
true Love and I was following fake love and masking around. Right,
But the John says, we are spreading the good news
to the masses. Yes, right to the masses. Always have
that in mind that when you're celebrating, worshiping Amen, having
(23:47):
service in the church building, that's an amazing thing. Is
recharging us, giving us up and equipping us to go
ahead and do the works in the ministry outside, because
outside is where the action is right, this action in
the church. And sometimes God brings people who are hurt,
broken and lost into the church building, of course, for
us to show them true love, not fake love, for
(24:10):
us to show them true friendship, to really be listening
to what they're saying. But sometimes in a church service
or a church environment. We can't get that personal. That's
why we could break out in groups. That's why we
get people's phone numbers. That's why we let leaders know. Amen,
that X YC. This person, that person, That person doesn't
(24:33):
know the Lord. So let's God had to reach out
to them in their own situation, in their own environment,
and they will be shot, but they will be also
kind of impressed that you actually left your controlled atmosphere
right of the church building and you left outside of
that and you saw them or reached out to them
in their own situation where they're at. That's an amazing
(24:55):
act of love. And it's not anything that's masked. It's
not anything that's slanderous, not anything that's fake. It's not
anything that's hypocritical. It's everything that's holy, righteous and loving. Amen.
That's where we should be and what we should be doing.
God is love, and he loves and who loves it
has God. Yeah, he who loves has God. Yes, thank
(25:17):
you brother. I even listen, I'm out of time. I'm
actually overtime. My bad. Hey man, I get excited when
I get into these morning DeVos, but listen, I'm out
of time. Read Proverbs, chapter number twenty six, verse twenty
four again and then read the whole chapter so you
can get this the full context of it all. So
I'm out of time. God bless you all. Thank you
(25:38):
so much for hanging out with me for these morning devots.
Got to keep you all and remember always that God
is good. Peace,
