Speaker 1 (00:03):
Morning Fan, Good morning, God bless you. Welcome back to
the Morning DeVos you pro Sam Lopez aka DJ Sam
Rox SO Winners with a z dot Org on the website,
we have a live chat now on the live stream
portion of the website. So that means when you're watching
or listening to the live stream, you can actually chat
on the live chat. So I'm excited about that. So
(00:25):
I know a lot of people don't want to necessarily
you know, have their audio you know, voice audibly heard
or anything like that. A lot of people still are
into the chat and they want to express their questions, comments, concerns,
prayer requests that way. So we've made it possible that
now on the live stream tab of SO Winners with
(00:46):
a z dot Org. The Celebrator Network is a live
chat box a man for very simple use. You have
to just sign on once and then it will remember
who you are next time you come to the chat. Amen.
So I'm excited about that. Also at live that's live
dot soone is with a z dot org. There's a
live chat there as well. It's also interactive Bible right
(01:07):
there on the spot, and a lot more going on
are live that SO one is with a z dot
Orgy the same thing. You sign up once and you
will never have to sign up every again. Plus when
you go to live that soone is with a z
dot Orgy and sign up, you're being on our VIP
email list. So I'm excited about that as well. Today
we're gonna talk about what's your problem? And when I
(01:31):
say what's your problem, I'm talking to myself too. Amen.
A lot of you that followed me know that I
took a week off amen, for sabbatical, to rest, to think,
to pray, amen, and to get some celebrity and some
things that I've been thinking about lately. Amen. And honestly,
I think I need more time off, Amen. But I said,
(01:51):
you know what, I'm gonna just trust the process here
and you go live, Amen, because I one because I
missed going live and I missed the peace people that
I connect with in the groups that I connect with. Amen.
And secondly, trust to God. I don't want to be
too much of my feelings, Amen, because feelings, well, at
(02:11):
least in my life, my feelings tend to take me
off course. Amen. So I'm going to continue to move
by faith, not by feelings, if that makes any sense
to people out there. Amen. You know I'm edgy. You
know I was a little cranky edgy, and you know
something needs to be worked on in my heart and
(02:33):
my life. Amen, what about you? So I decided to
confront myself, Amen, with the question, what's your problem? So,
Humanity's problem is sin? Period. Humanity's problem, my problem, Your
problem is sin. Ignorance or important imperfection is secondary. So
(02:54):
I didn't know, saying I didn't know all about the Lord.
I didn't know about this, I didn't know about that.
Ignorance and imperfection, ah Man, I messed up. I was
trying to do this right and I messed up. Those
are all secondary things. Humanity's main problem and issue is sin.
But thank you Jesus, Amen, that he has overcome sin.
(03:16):
He paid the sin debt with his own blood. And
if you're in Christ, Amen, if you gave your life
to him, if you trust him right, if you follow him,
if you have his Holy Spirit living within you, sin
is really not the issue anymore. But that's deeper and
later our discussion. But in general, humanity's problem when you
(03:39):
ask yourself what's my problem? Sin is the problem? Amen,
Sisters Joanne, I see you good. Morning, God bless you.
Welcome back to the morning. Dem with my sister, my friend.
Today is my sister Charmagne's birthday. She is with the Lord. Oh,
praise the Lord. So we celebrate just to Charbad Amen,
heavenly birthday now and when you're in glory. Amen. I
(04:04):
don't know how the time is going to be in glory, Amen,
but I know we remember our family members. We remember
our brothers and sisters, siblings, you know our family member
and meet. We honor people that are in our family. Amen.
So we honor Schamain. Thank you, sister Joinne for sharing that. Amen.
So listen, let's go ahead and move forward. Amen, And
(04:29):
pray for me and I can see to pray for you,
pray for me my family, and I can see to
pray for you and your family. I know this much
prayer needed in our lives, amen, in our world and
our families, with our finances, relationships, everything. Amen. So I'm
gonna just put my head down right. In other words,
work harder, try harder to be on time, amen, not
(04:54):
try harder to be a Christian. That doesn't make any sense.
And I'm gonna follow the Lord deeper than before because
it's by faith that I should be moving. It's not
by my feelings that I should be moving. My feelings
will always get in touch with the flesh, and when
the flesh and the feelings come together, that's going to
be a bad situation. So I'd rather let my faith
(05:16):
in my new heart and my new mind move me forward. Amen,
and leave my family and try to lead them well, Amen,
regardless of who's with it or not. Right, my position
as the priest king prophet of my home still stands
regardless of who doesn't agree or not. And I try
to try my best to humble myself. Amen. And sometimes
(05:38):
I get it wrong. Sometimes I mess up. What about you?
So let's go. If you have any questions, comments, concerns,
prayer requests, or anything along those lines, please don't hesitate
to leaving on a live chat. That's what we're here for. Also,
we're gonna pray first. After we pray, we share this
out for like sixty seconds, and then on the other
side of those sixty seconds, you know, the drill will
get right into it. I almost didn't have my slides
(06:01):
show already because the website was having issues with how
I share my website, how I share the slides, but
then it started working. Praise God. So let's go for it.
Let's pray. Father. I thank you for right now. Thank
you for the time off. Thank you for keeping me safe,
keeping me alive, even though my mindset and my prayer
(06:23):
life and my leadership of my family amen needs help
and direction. Amen, I thank you regardless of that. I
thank you that you are patient with me, that you
are kind, that you are gentle, that you continue to
fill me with your word and your love, your grace
and your mercy, and that you would do the same
for every single person on the other side of the
(06:43):
screen and on the other side of this mic. I
thank you, Love God, that we are able to know
what the problem is, and we are able to know
who is the answer to our problems. And the answer
is Jesus Yeshi Wahamashia. Thank you, Love God for settling
our human issues by shedding your blood on the cross
(07:08):
of cavalry. Thank you, Lord God for your sacrifice. Thank you,
Lord God for your perfect life. Thank you, Lord God
for your demonstration of your own love. Thank you Lord
Jesus for rescuing and saving and healing and providing and
moving us forward in victory by faith. Thank you Father
for sending yourself in the form of the name of
(07:30):
Jesus in the form of a man. Thank you Holy
Spirit for living within every single one of us, whosoevers
who call upon your name to be saved, and that
you're leading us by faith. You're leading us with your spirit.
You're leading us into all truth. And I thank you,
Lord God for that as well. So I speak life
concerning all things living. I speak over marriages, I speak
(07:51):
over children, I speak over siblings, I speak over parents.
By the powerful name of Jesus, that we will be protected,
guided and guarded by your arq weeen Angel's Lord, and
that you would sin and dispatch arq ween angels right
now to annihilate the tactics of the enemy. Who is
trying to disrupt, who is trying to separate, discourage, who
is trying to cause people to give up. We come
(08:15):
against those things in a powerful name of Jesus. And
we thank you for our helpers that come in the
form of angels. And I thank you look God today
for victory and Jesus Holy name. My prayer is by faith,
and all those who agree with this prayer we say
amen to the Amen, help me share this Soule family,
and when we get back, we'll get right into today's
morning devo. Today I'm calling this and the form of
(08:36):
a question is called watch your problem. I'll be right back.
(09:56):
Thank you so much for helping me shut us out,
and thank you for all those who come to visit
someone is with a z that org fowage slash donate
to see what this ministry is really all about, what
SO Winners is trying to do according to the purpose
and plan that God has us here for. Amen, So
thank you for visiting the page, reading up on what
(10:17):
the mission and vision is of our ministry here celebrated
on Network SO Winners, Inc. Amen, So thank you so
much for that. Thank you for your prayers, for all
those who pray for me. I'm during my time off.
Thank you for the messages and the concern of where
I've been and what's happening and what's going on. I'm
really grateful for that. Amen. People think, oh, man, he's
on social media all the time, he's this, he's that.
(10:39):
So he's surrounded by a whole bunch of people, And
the truth of the matter is, I'm grateful for the
people who connect with me, Amen. But I'm not surrounded
by a whole bunch of people. Amen. I'm connected to
people who love me absolutely, but it's not a whole
bunch of people. So when you connect and when you
ask questions, when you say, hey, I'm praying for you,
(10:59):
or when you're concerned about why I'm not doing lives, Amen,
I'm really grateful. And it reminds me that we're considering
each other, Amen, and we're holding each other up, and
we're just being family, the family of God. And even
if people don't believe in the Lord Jesus and you
reach out, Amen, you want to know what's going on.
I'm grateful for that too, Amen. So that way we
(11:21):
could keep the dialogue and the conversation open. No one's
perfect accept the Lord Jesus, but he's perfecting us by
way of his Holy Spirit, and his word will transform
our lives. He's worried transformed my life. His world will
continue to transform your life as well. Sister Joanne says,
I was wondering where you were and what was going on.
(11:41):
I have text you but didn't get no response. I
did response to your sister, Joan, and you're one of
the people who reached out and I did respond to you.
I hope you're okay. God is good. God is with me.
God bless you and your family and be with you always. Amen. Amen,
thank you so much for the blessing checking messages. Of
(12:01):
course I got back to you. Amen. I saw your
message last week, but I just I needed some time off,
and that's what I said on the message. Amen. And
also I put some social media posts out there of
what was going on a week off to restore, to pray, amen,
to try to settle things in my mind. Amen. And honestly,
(12:24):
I really think I need some more time. But let's
see what happens. Let's see what the Lord takes us, Amen,
from this time forward. So let's go forward. Let's get
into the word. Amen. What's your problem is a question, Amen. Amen,
I'm just letting you in on a conversation. But I
believe we all have the same problem, Amen. And I'm
(12:44):
going to try to prove that through the scriptures real quickly. Amen.
This is a devotion, so I can't really get too
deep into these issues. What I'm trying to do is
encourage you to get into the Word of God for yourself.
I'm trying to inspire you. I'm trying to provoke you
to get into God's word for yourself, so that way
you can get the whole context of what we're saying
(13:05):
and what we're looking at in the scriptures. Amen, that's
my goal. I'm trying to Now. I can't force people, obviously,
but I could lead people too who Jesus is. And
then you do your due diligence, and if you want
to investigate the claims of the Lord and Savior, the
Lord Jesus, Amen, scriptures are always available to you. Isaiah
(13:26):
chapter fifty nine, verse number two says it like this,
the prophet said, but your wickedness has separated you from
your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you,
so that he does not hear. We went over the
scripture before, but I wanted to start again from Isaiah
the prophet fifty nine and two to remind us that
(13:49):
it's not God who's looking at us and saying, no,
I don't want to be with you. It's our wickedness
that separates us from our God. Right sins have hidden
his face from us, and because of that, he doesn't
hear us. He doesn't hear us because we're not being genuine.
(14:10):
A lot of people are going around saying I'm born again,
I'm a Christian, and they're living apart from the Holy Word.
They're living opposing the Holy Word. It's not lining up,
their lifestyle is not lining up, and it's hypocrisy a man,
And to be honest, I see it a lot, and
it started messing with my mindset, like what's going on here?
(14:31):
You know, God is beautiful, the Lord Jesus is a
beautiful a person. His love, his grace, and his mercy
is more than enough for us. And I'm thinking, well,
before I get into my feelings about hypocrisy, makes I
want to make sure I'm not being a hypocrite. So
I said, I have a problem, and the problem is
(14:52):
going to be everybody else's problem. And that problem was
already satisfied. There's still a problem, though, A man, if
I'm not careful, I tend to go different directions than
what I know where to go. What about you? So like,
if I'm too hungry, I'm too angry, If I'm too lonely,
I'm too tired. I can't be making decisions based on that.
(15:13):
I shouldn't be speaking based on those things. When I'm
in those areas and when I'm in those feelings right,
because I get into trouble and man, and I think that,
to be honest, I think anybody people, when they're operating
according to their feelings, that that's for everybody. You know, apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers.
(15:34):
We could all get into those areas of our flesh
and have problems with that. And we don't need those
type of problems. There's enough going on in the world
for us to start causing our own issues or letting
our flesh guide and lead us when we have Holy
Spirit leading us into all truth. And it's not hard.
(15:56):
Everybody's going around or a lot of people, I scratch everybody.
I don't like saying everybody in all. There's many people
out there, especially on social media, that saying it's so
hard to be a Christian, and I don't know what
that means anymore. It's not hard to follow the Lord Jesus.
It says his burdens are light, his yoke is easy. Amen.
What's going on and I'll say this over and over again,
(16:19):
even wrote a book about it, is that the flesh
is a monster. The flesh will want to tell us
that we can't follow a holy, righteous, loving God because
we're far from that, and that's a lie. I learned
to repeat what the Lord says about me in my life. Amen.
(16:39):
You should learn the same thing. People will have this
habit of saying I'm nobody. Well, Jesus didn't die for
a bunch of nobodies. Jesus died for you and me.
We are somebody. Amen. It's okay to admit that we
have a purpose. It's okay to admit that we're walking
in victory. It's okay to admit that we're a royal priesthoot.
It's okay to admit that we're already see didn't have
(17:00):
a new places. I know it sounds arrogant to a
lot of people, but I'm just quoting the scriptures. Amen.
The Lord Jesus never calls us a sinner after we're saved.
The disciples never called us sinners after we're born again.
But we have some kind of notion or idea to say, Man,
I'm nobody, i'm nothing, i'm dirt, I'm still a sinner. Well,
(17:23):
then read the scriptures and prove to me or where
you're saying that about yourself, that's no longer true. Now,
if you're saying we were, absolutely I agree. One you
were saying we were this, we were that, we were
the bottom of this and the bottom of that. We
were nobody. We were in darkness. But we're no longer
in darkness. So anyway, I don't know why I went
(17:45):
down that road. Humanity's problem is sin. It's not ignorance
or in perfection. I know some perfectionists. I used to
have a touch of perfectionism. Amen, And I said it
that real quick. I said, yeah, I make mistakes. I'm
not perfect, so this is not going to work out.
And if I don't do everything correctly one hundred percent
all the time, Amen, it's okay. It just proves that
(18:07):
I'm in need of a holy, loving, righteous God, Romans
chapter three, twenty three. We'll all all have sin and
fall short of the glory of God. So that's a
humbling scripture, and we all are qualified to be part
of that scripture. As a human. Our greatest need isn't
(18:30):
more education, isn't more wealth or even morality. Its forgiveness
and reconciliation with God. The wages of sin is death,
Romans six twenty three. So if the wages of sin
is deaf and we all fall short of the glory
of God. The scriptures, the Word of God apostle upon
(18:50):
inspired by Holy Spirit, is letting us know, listen, we
can't do this on our own. We need a savior,
We need a redeemer. We need a life changing experience
and counter with the Lord g Jesus. We need Holy
Spirit of God operating in our lives to overcome the
sin problem. Sin is a spiritual disease that separates every
(19:14):
one of us from a holy God. The prophet Isaiah
was inspired to write that to the people that he
was speaking to at the time. And because God's word
is eternal, Amen, we could speak about it towards one
another as well. When a prophet speaks, Amen, that prophet,
that prophecy will come to pass. So even though he's
(19:40):
not telling people you're all going to hell, right, you
have to read the whole chapter Isaiah, chapter fifty nine.
But this is the reality of what the prophet was saying.
He's saying, it's not God's fault that all this evil,
all this destruction, all this hypocrisy, all of this is
(20:01):
going on. It's not God's fault. God is not creating
us evil as evil people. God is not promoting us
or provoking us to do evil. It's our own evil,
sinful desires a man that separates us from a loving, holy,
righteous God. You know, there's no other religion, there's no
other philosophy, There's no type of effort that we could
(20:26):
do on our end that could remove sin. Did you
know that. I know a lot of people out there
think that, you know, oh, I don't sin, I'm not
a sinner, and speak just because like I said before,
it's ignorance, imperfection, and man, they're using that as a
way of saying, yeah, I don't sin, so therefore violence sin,
I don't have to abide by your Bible. A lot
(20:49):
of people say that, but that's it doesn't stand up
in real life, that type of thinking. We all know
we have issues, we all know we fall short of
the glories standards of God. We all know that the
wages of sin is death. Because those who are not,
who are not even saved, when the consequences of their
sin starts popping up and they come to reality like WHOA,
(21:11):
I'm in need of a helper, I need help, they're
not necessarily not knowing that they need to be saved.
Some people do wake up to that. I woke up
to that in two thousand and one. But people do
know that they're going in the wrong direction when the
consequences of their prior decisions is causing sickness, disease, violence,
(21:37):
all kind of stuff that's not good. Evil shows up
as a consequence of evil desires. You're not gonna get
good when you're doing evil. Evil promotes evil. So on
the other end of that, good promotes good, and only
one who is good. The only one who is good
(21:58):
is God. There's no other religion, philosophy, or effort that
can remove sin. See. Religion could teach morality and change
our direction and ideas, but it doesn't transform our hearts
and minds. Religion is okay, but it's more than religion
(22:19):
that we should be thinking about morality. Of course, what's
right and what's wrong. People say, well, we have to
look at the society, and whatever society says is right
and what's wrong will go that way. But the scripture
says the only one that is the moral head, the
one who says what's right and what's wrong, is the
Lord himself. But morality can't clean your heart right. Morality
(22:45):
can change your behavior, but morality cannot clean your heart
and transform your heart. Only a sinless savior, listen closely.
Only a sinless savior could pay the price of sin
and restore, reconcile, reconcile and restore our relation with God.
(23:08):
We're the only ones and the only scriptures that we have.
We're the only ones who have the scriptures of a redeemer. Amen.
Other religions they have prophets, they have deities, they have this,
that and the third, but none of the other religions
have the redemption story that we have. Amen. Only Jesus
(23:30):
is known for living a sin less life, and that's
hard for a lot of people to believe. They said,
who is this Jesus? And you Christians are idolizing Jesus Christ. Right,
we have some religions that accuse us of making Jesus
our idol that's just because they're not understanding who Jesus is.
(23:56):
And at that point we have to respect that. I
didn't understand who you. I heard the story of the
Lord Jesus Christ. I would want to say over one
hundred times before I got saved, because I couldn't. I
couldn't I didn't think that what he did on that
cross was for me. I thought it was for every
(24:18):
single other person. Accept me. You see how the devil
is alive. The devil was saying, now, that's good for them,
the people that go to church. That's good for those
people over there. You know, he died for Jewish people along.
This is what the enemy was telling me. And I
was all up in that, and green with the enemies,
said yeah, you're right, it's not for me. He didn't
die for me. That sacrifice wasn't for me until my
(24:43):
sins and my decision making for my worldly attitude, my
own evil, sinful desires showed up as a lie. Because
the world would tell you, hey, if you drink this,
if you smoke this, if you get with this person,
if you do that, you'll gain wealth, you'll have health,
(25:04):
you'll be happy, and you'll be satisfied. Those were all lies.
Because I did what the world offered, trust me, and
it was a lie. So because it was a lie,
I was like, okay, So if I did all of
this and I still didn't get far in life, and
(25:27):
I definitely wasn't satisfied. Someone lied to me. There has
to be more that's how I started waking up. That's
what the Lord used in my life to start waking
me up my own evil, sinful desires. It's crazy, right,
But God will meet you where you are. It's not
like a special place. I know a lot of people think, oh,
(25:47):
I'm going to go to church because I need God. Okay,
that's cool, But you know He could meet you right
there in your bathroom, right there, in your living room,
right there, at your workplace, right there, at your school,
right there, in the street right there, and your drunken
state or your high state right there while he You know,
God can meet you there right People say, how is
that possible, Sam, don't gotta be clean first. Don't have
(26:10):
to get my life right first. The thing about that,
if you could get your life right, you wouldn't need
someone to save you. If you could do it on
your own, if you could transform your heart, transform your
mind on your own, there will be no need for
a savior in your life. So let's think this clearly,
Jesus is the only one who lived a sinous life.
(26:31):
Every other religious leader, Buddha, Muhammed, Confucius, Gandhi Amen acknowledge
personal imperfection, but Jesus alone lived the perfect sinous life
one Peter chapter two, verse twenty two. He committed no sin,
and no deceit was found in his mouth. And that's amazing.
(26:55):
And if you look up the scriptures and you see
what goes along with that scripture. Before we were saved,
our heart was full of weakness and deceit. And now
the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. Yet Jesus
had no deceit in his heart. This is an amazing,
an amazing life that we're living as believers. Amen, get
(27:15):
into your word. We started in the prophet Isaiah chapter
fifty nine, right verse number two. Read the whole chapter
for yourself. I hope you understand what's going on here, Amen,
And I hope I'm being in help and a blessing
to your life. So I'm out of time. So God
bless you all. God keep you all, and remember always
that God is good. Peace.
