0:55
Speaker 3: is gonna heal. This is We're gonna get deep. I
0:57
Speaker 3: ain't gonna lie. Oh lord, We're gonna get real deep
1:01
Speaker 3: on this one. The topic is purposed in heart versus
1:06
Speaker 3: lip service. Let me say that again, purposed in heart
1:13
Speaker 3: versus our lip service. This is the true mark of
1:18
Speaker 3: a disciple. We're gonna dig deep. We're not gonna sugarcoat
1:26
Speaker 3: nothing on this episode. So grab your Bible, share this stream.
1:33
Speaker 3: Un let's get into it.
1:42
Speaker 4: Now.
1:42
Speaker 3: We're gonna look at it. We're gonna look at it.
1:44
Speaker 3: We're gonna break it down. What does it mean to
1:48
Speaker 3: have purpose in your heart? What does that look like?
1:52
Speaker 3: Purposing in your heart? Now? The Foundational Scripture or today
2:03
Speaker 3: is Acts chapter eleven, verse twenty three. Acts Chapter eleven,
2:08
Speaker 3: verse twenty three. And let me give you a little
2:14
Speaker 3: background to the Scripture. Of course, we know about the
2:20
Speaker 3: life of Paul and his missionary journeys. And Paul was
2:27
Speaker 3: accompanied by Barnabas. Barnabas the name means son of a consolation.
2:34
Speaker 3: Barnabas had the gift to bring people together to reconcile
2:39
Speaker 3: between two parties. Right, and he was an exhorteror he
2:45
Speaker 3: used to exhort early church. We need that, we need preaching,
2:52
Speaker 3: but we also need exhortation, and we need teaching to
2:56
Speaker 3: have a healthy body, a healthy ministry. And barnaby this
3:01
Speaker 3: was great. Now when he traveled with Paul, and his
3:10
Speaker 3: heart rejoiced over so many people who are coming to
3:15
Speaker 3: the faith. He left his message, and let's peak it
3:23
Speaker 3: up in verse twenty three. But when he came as
3:27
Speaker 3: Barnabas and had seen the grace of God was glad.
3:34
Speaker 3: Now Barnabas was glad. And now check him out. He
3:39
Speaker 3: is about to exhort the church. And it says he
3:44
Speaker 3: exhorted them all that with purpose of heart, they would
3:51
Speaker 3: cleave unto the Lord. With the purpose of heart, that
3:57
Speaker 3: they would cleave onto the Lord. Purpose scene in your
4:02
Speaker 3: heart means making a deliberate inner commitment to serve God.
4:09
Speaker 3: Let me say that again. Purpose scene in your heart
4:12
Speaker 3: means making a deliberate inner commitment to serve God before
4:19
Speaker 3: you're even tested. Before the test comes, you've already made
4:24
Speaker 3: the commitment. Before the temptation comes, You've already decided. Barnabas
4:32
Speaker 3: was just telling the church to be wholehearted in their
4:39
Speaker 3: commitment to purpose in their heart. He wasn't just telling
4:44
Speaker 3: the church to be emotional or hype about the situation.
4:48
Speaker 3: He told them to cleave to the Lord with their
4:53
Speaker 3: whole being. To cleave to the Lord with your whole being.
5:03
Speaker 3: He told them to purpose in their heart. It's not
5:09
Speaker 3: just passion, is also preparation. You have to prepare. Tell
5:21
Speaker 3: me anything in life that you can do well that
5:27
Speaker 3: you did not first prepare for it. Once we prepare
5:34
Speaker 3: for something, once we give our all to something, we
5:41
Speaker 3: practice something, we focus on something we know that the
5:46
Speaker 3: outcome is a lot better. Well, how come we don't
5:50
Speaker 3: prepare ourselves to be committed to the Lord. This is
5:58
Speaker 3: the difference between people who make it and people who don't.
6:04
Speaker 3: Why do we see people always falling back into the
6:08
Speaker 3: same old rut. They go back to the same lifestyle,
6:13
Speaker 3: They go back to their sin. The Bible says, as
6:17
Speaker 3: a dog returns to the vomit, so goes the backslider.
6:27
Speaker 3: You see so many people who backslide, they walk away
6:31
Speaker 3: from God. Why because they've never purposed in their heart.
6:35
Speaker 3: They only had a head knowledge, they only had lip service,
6:40
Speaker 3: but they never purposed. Let's look at Daniel, Chapter one,
6:46
Speaker 3: verse eight. But Daniel purposed in his heart that he
6:52
Speaker 3: will not defile himself with a portion of the king's men.
6:58
Speaker 3: Daniel didn't wait for peer pressure. He decided ahead of
7:04
Speaker 3: time not to compromise. A lot of us make decisions
7:09
Speaker 3: in the heat of the moment, But a disciple decides
7:16
Speaker 3: in the secret place, not in the spotlight. That's purpose. Now,
7:24
Speaker 3: you gotta ask yourself real quick. Let's take a second
7:28
Speaker 3: to to do some reflection, right, to do some self evaluation.
7:35
Speaker 3: Have you made a decision and no matter what happens,
7:40
Speaker 3: you will not bow. Have you purposed in your heart?
7:46
Speaker 3: Have you decided that no matter what happens, you're not
7:52
Speaker 3: gonna bow, You're not gonna cave in. You're gonna play
7:55
Speaker 3: the man, You're gonna play the woman. Right, next question,
8:00
Speaker 3: and what is your lion in the sand? Have you
8:05
Speaker 3: drawn a lion in the sand. Have you told the
8:09
Speaker 3: devil not to cross his line or if you haven't
8:15
Speaker 3: done it yet, today would be the perfect day to
8:20
Speaker 3: do that. Let's do that together on this episode. Hey,
8:28
Speaker 3: I'm talking to myself as well. There's many areas of
8:31
Speaker 3: my life where I keep slipping up and going back
8:34
Speaker 3: to But I'm trusting believing God through his Holy Spirit,
8:39
Speaker 3: He's going to do a work in us and through
8:43
Speaker 3: us with this podcast. Now, let's take a look at
8:47
Speaker 3: the person who only gives lip service to their walk
8:51
Speaker 3: with God and Matthew fifteen, verse eight, it says, those
9:03
Speaker 3: people draw nine unto me with their mouth and honored
9:08
Speaker 3: me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
9:15
Speaker 3: While you can't fool the Lord, you might be able
9:19
Speaker 3: to trick other people, but we can't fool God. These
9:25
Speaker 3: people give them great lip service, and they honored him
9:30
Speaker 3: with their mouth, right, but they never purposed in their heart.
9:38
Speaker 3: That is a tragedy here. How many of us know
9:42
Speaker 3: of a person who spoke well and men will had
9:47
Speaker 3: good intentions. But if you never purpose in your heart,
9:51
Speaker 3: you're not gonna follow through. You're not gonna make it.
9:57
Speaker 3: You're just fak in the front. But you're only fooling yourself.
10:06
Speaker 3: I'm only fooling myself if I choose to go down
10:09
Speaker 3: this road. I said, if I told y'all, this is
10:12
Speaker 3: gonna be another one, this is gonna be one of
10:14
Speaker 3: those podcasts. I felt this in my heart. The Holy
10:19
Speaker 3: Spirit gave this to me, and I was convicted about it,
10:23
Speaker 3: and I'm like, you know what, let me get this out.
10:25
Speaker 3: Let me get this word out. So stick with me.
10:28
Speaker 3: Stick with me. We're gonna get some encouragement towards the end. Now,
10:38
Speaker 3: then Matthew. Concerning Matthew fifteen eight, Jesus actually quoted this
10:46
Speaker 3: from Isaiah. See, this is not new. Fake praise has
10:54
Speaker 3: been a problem for centuries. Lip service is when your
11:00
Speaker 3: mouth says yes, but your lifestyle says maybe, and it's
11:06
Speaker 3: a hollow hallelujah and a compromised lifestyle. We need God
11:15
Speaker 3: to help us. A compromise lifestyle. Fake praise. Your praise
11:23
Speaker 3: is fake, your worship is fake if you're living a
11:28
Speaker 3: compromised lifestyle. Now, one of the ways that you can
11:40
Speaker 3: tell whether or not you're just giving lip services when
11:44
Speaker 3: you go on social media and you post a scripture,
11:49
Speaker 3: but then you start cursing people out in the comments, like,
11:53
Speaker 3: I mean, what's up with that? That's like a contradictory.
11:57
Speaker 3: How you going to post a scripture and start? Are
12:00
Speaker 3: you in and cutting people out into comments? Or even
12:05
Speaker 3: when you go to church. You lift your hands in church,
12:07
Speaker 3: but you're sleeping around with everybody who's not your spouse, right,
12:15
Speaker 3: you're hopping from bed to bed. You're not crucifying the flesh.
12:19
Speaker 3: You're not living a life of obedience. You're not living
12:23
Speaker 3: a life. You're not a living sacrifice or even serve
12:30
Speaker 3: on Sunday, but then you cheat in business on Monday. Wow,
12:37
Speaker 3: this is convicting. Like, God help us, ay man, I
12:45
Speaker 3: need helping this Now, here's another time to get some reflection.
12:56
Speaker 3: Is my devotion public but not person? Let's ask ourselves?
13:04
Speaker 3: Is my devotion public but not personal? What are you
13:09
Speaker 3: doing behind closed doors is more important than what you
13:13
Speaker 3: do in public? And I got another question for you.
13:24
Speaker 3: Do I have Christian habits but no holy heart? Is
13:30
Speaker 3: it all just outward? Is it all just tradition?
13:35
Speaker 2: Do you go to.
13:35
Speaker 3: Church because somebody told you to? Do you read your
13:41
Speaker 3: Bible because somebody told you to? And whether they're not around,
13:46
Speaker 3: you're back to whatever this could be a telltale sign.
13:57
Speaker 3: This give me something. Stay encouraged because we're gonna get help.
14:03
Speaker 3: God is gonna help us before this is over. Now,
14:09
Speaker 3: the sipleship takes daily decisions. Is not a quick thing.
14:16
Speaker 3: It takes daily decisions. Luke chapter nine, verse twenty three says,
14:24
Speaker 3: if any man will come after me, let him deny himself,
14:30
Speaker 3: take up his cross daily and follow me. Following following
14:36
Speaker 3: Christ is not an event. It's a daily execution of self.
14:43
Speaker 3: The difference between the lip talker and the heart purposer
14:47
Speaker 3: is consistency. One has moments and the other has a lifestyle.
14:57
Speaker 3: Let me say that again. Lip talker may have moments
15:02
Speaker 3: of obedience, but a heart purposer has a lifestyle of obedience. Amen.
15:16
Speaker 3: The last scripture on this point is James chapter one,
15:23
Speaker 3: verse twenty two. But be doers of the word, and
15:28
Speaker 3: not here is only deceiving your own selves. This scripture
15:34
Speaker 3: is sobering. Fam It is sobering. If you just listen
15:40
Speaker 3: but don't obey, you're walking in self deception. Yeah, you
15:47
Speaker 3: might look spiritual, but the mirror of the word reveals
15:54
Speaker 3: your true reflection. Let me say that again. The mirror
16:00
Speaker 3: other word, it deals your true reflection. See, when you're deceived,
16:11
Speaker 3: you don't even know you're all. It's bad. I mean,
16:17
Speaker 3: I can you know, I can almost understand a person
16:22
Speaker 3: who wants to deceive others because possibly there's something that
16:29
Speaker 3: they want to gain, they want to you know, maybe
16:32
Speaker 3: they're hungry and they're trying to trick you out of
16:34
Speaker 3: some food, trick you out of your money so that
16:36
Speaker 3: you can eat. At least that's reasonable. But man, it's
16:41
Speaker 3: worse when we deceive ourselves. Like what do we get
16:44
Speaker 3: out of deceiving ourselves? That's how wicked our hearts are.
16:49
Speaker 3: That's how ruthless the enemy is. And see, when we're deceived,
16:55
Speaker 3: we don't even know it. We have blind spots. We
17:01
Speaker 3: can be way off and we think we're fine. How
17:06
Speaker 3: many of us started dabbling into something. And when you
17:11
Speaker 3: first started dabbling into it, you thought you were fine,
17:15
Speaker 3: You thought you were okay, You thought you can handle it. Oh,
17:18
Speaker 3: I can handle watching porn. Oh I can handle drinking alcohol.
17:25
Speaker 3: I can hang out with this crowd. I can handle it.
17:28
Speaker 3: They're not gonna influence me to sin against God. And
17:33
Speaker 3: then we find ourselves flat on our backs because we
17:38
Speaker 3: couldn't handle it. That self deception. That is why accountability
17:45
Speaker 3: is important. That's why you need to have someone in
17:49
Speaker 3: your life that loves you, that is willing to hold
17:54
Speaker 3: you accountable. And the Word of God is non negotiable.
18:03
Speaker 3: The only way that we're going to walk in truth
18:06
Speaker 3: is if we pick up the Word. We get that revelation,
18:10
Speaker 3: we get that understanding is when we spend time in
18:15
Speaker 3: the Word. And of course you gotta have that prayer life.
18:19
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. Yeah, I told y'all we
18:23
Speaker 3: was gonna get deep. I mean, we do this because
18:27
Speaker 3: we love y'all. You know what I'm saying. We want
18:30
Speaker 3: to see y'all make it. Some of these topics we
18:34
Speaker 3: cover are not being taught in church, They're not being
18:39
Speaker 3: taught in other places. That's why we're doing it. Now,
18:46
Speaker 3: let's go ahead and get us a music break. We're
18:51
Speaker 3: gonna switch up the flavor a little bit. We got

Speaker 3: We have our own chart as well. So I like
30:00
Speaker 3: to remind y'all because you know who knows this might
30:03
Speaker 3: be the first time you heard this podcast and you're
30:06
Speaker 3: looking to cement your music and now you found a
30:09
Speaker 3: spot right right here on his Hot Radio. Also, I
30:14
Speaker 3: want to give a Las Vegas shout out, send it
30:18
Speaker 3: out some local love. As you know that we strive
30:22
Speaker 3: to be a community radio station. So if you have
30:27
Speaker 3: an event, if you have an outreach, if you're feed
30:31
Speaker 3: the homeless, if we have a clothing ministry. If you're
30:35
Speaker 3: doing something positive in the community, if your church is
30:38
Speaker 3: doing something, let us know so we can give you
30:41
Speaker 3: a public service announcement. We can shout you out. Give
30:45
Speaker 3: us the day, the time, the location so that we
30:50
Speaker 3: can send it out to our listeners. We only ask
30:53
Speaker 3: that you guys join us every Monday through Friday at
30:57
Speaker 3: eleven o'clock Pacific, the entertime West Coast time, because you
31:02
Speaker 3: know we are in Vegas, we are on the West
31:04
Speaker 3: coast Monday through Friday. Come on and join us.
31:10
Speaker 4: Amen and a man.
31:19
Speaker 3: All right, So back to the topic. Now, here's how
31:26
Speaker 3: you can tell you have signs of a heart that
31:30
Speaker 3: is purposed. Do you want to be a man or
31:38
Speaker 3: a woman of purpose or do you just want to
31:42
Speaker 3: be a man or a woman that just gives lip service.
31:47
Speaker 3: You got to make the decision, y'all. We got to
31:49
Speaker 3: make it pretty quick. We need to make it right here,
31:52
Speaker 3: right now, on this podcast. Now here's a couple of signs.
31:58
Speaker 3: Obedience even when it hurts. Wow, that's convicting obedience even
32:07
Speaker 3: when it hurts. Now, if you look at Hebrews Chapter eleven,
32:13
Speaker 3: verse twenty four and twenty five, Moses choosing rather to
32:19
Speaker 3: suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy
32:24
Speaker 3: the pleasures of sin for a season. So Moses was
32:30
Speaker 3: willing to suffer that affliction. Sometimes obedience will be painful.
32:36
Speaker 3: Sometimes we have to pay a cost to obey our Lord.
32:45
Speaker 3: So we need to pray that. We need to pray
32:47
Speaker 3: that that we want to obey even when it hurts. Now,
32:54
Speaker 3: are you consistent a consistent character in private and in public?
33:00
Speaker 4: Now?
33:00
Speaker 3: Just when people can see you, are you consistent behind
33:05
Speaker 3: closed doors? This is important, y'all. Let's go to Proverbs
33:11
Speaker 3: chapter four, verse twenty three. Proverbs for twenty three Keep
33:17
Speaker 3: thy heart with all diligence, For out of it are
33:21
Speaker 3: the issues of life. Are you keeping your heart? Are
33:26
Speaker 3: you keeping guard? Are you just letting every old thing
33:30
Speaker 3: come in your heart, whether it be jealousy, whether it
33:34
Speaker 3: be envy, whether it be lust, unforgiveness and bitterness. The
33:39
Speaker 3: enemy is having a heyday in your heart if you're
33:44
Speaker 3: not guarding it. Conviction over convenience Romans twelve one and two.
33:57
Speaker 3: Be not conformed to this world. It might be more
34:02
Speaker 3: convenient for us to conform. Right to may be easier.
34:10
Speaker 3: We want to take the path of least resistance. We
34:14
Speaker 3: don't want to deal with it. We don't want to
34:18
Speaker 3: resist our flesh, right, but have you purposed in your heart?
34:26
Speaker 3: A person who has purposed in his heart is not
34:30
Speaker 3: going to do that. A person who has purposed in
34:35
Speaker 3: his heart is going to be faithful no matter what. Now,
34:52
Speaker 3: these aren't just surface level versus. These are standards for disciples. Yet,
35:01
Speaker 3: if we purpose in our hearts like Daniel, like Moses
35:06
Speaker 3: and Paul, we won't need a platform to prove it.
35:17
Speaker 3: Our lives will preach. Let me say that again. If
35:21
Speaker 3: we purpose in our hearts like Daniel, like Moses and Paul,
35:28
Speaker 3: we don't need a platform to try to prove it
35:31
Speaker 3: and try to fake other people out or fake ourselves out.
35:35
Speaker 3: Our lives will preach. Our lives are fruit. We preach
35:45
Speaker 3: the truth. Now, of course, you know I need to
35:54
Speaker 3: hit us up with some prayer. We can't let a
35:58
Speaker 3: topic like this go without going before the Lord and
36:02
Speaker 3: like you know what, just falling to our knees. Like
36:05
Speaker 3: I don't want to be a lip servicer. I want
36:11
Speaker 3: to purpose in my heart. The sad thing is, you
36:15
Speaker 3: see so many people in church. You can tell some
36:19
Speaker 3: of the things that they struggle with is because they
36:21
Speaker 3: never purposed in their heart to cleave to the Lord.
36:26
Speaker 3: They're just giving them lip service. Because if you purpose
36:30
Speaker 3: in your heart, you would be correcting yourself. You would
36:34
Speaker 3: be correcting your issues. You wouldn't have a mouth that
36:37
Speaker 3: just flips off and a bad attitude all the time,
36:41
Speaker 3: and all this stuff like you would be trying to
36:45
Speaker 3: improve at least. Right, let's pray, Lord, help us to
36:57
Speaker 3: move past the shallow our religion. Lord, take us deeper,
37:03
Speaker 3: help us to purpose in our hearts to never defile ourselves.
37:07
Speaker 4: God.
37:09
Speaker 3: Yes, Lord, purge every double minded place that is in us. Lord,
37:15
Speaker 3: let us let our lives God align with your word,
37:21
Speaker 3: whether we're on stage or in secret. Let us be consistent. Father,
37:27
Speaker 3: we have said, Lord, and Jesus saying Amen, Amen. Amen.
37:35
Speaker 3: If this podcast has blessed you, please share it with somebody.
37:43
Speaker 3: Somebody needs to hear this, Somebody needs some help. Somebody
37:46
Speaker 3: could be struggling, whether they go to church or not.
37:49
Speaker 3: Share this. As a matter of fact, this is probably
37:52
Speaker 3: more for the church, right, because we need to purpose.
37:58
Speaker 3: A sinner is not going to purpose in our all right.
38:00
Speaker 3: For the Lord, it's us those who know the gospel,
38:04
Speaker 3: those who said yes to Christ. We say yes as
38:07
Speaker 3: far as salvation, but we didn't follow through. We didn't
38:11
Speaker 3: purpose in our heart to conserve the Lord. And so
38:17
Speaker 3: if we ended up, if we end up going back
38:22
Speaker 3: to our old life, if we end up walking away
38:27
Speaker 3: from our relationship with God, if we end up not
38:30
Speaker 3: fulfilling purpose and not fulfilling the call in our lives,
38:34
Speaker 3: and we know why we never purposed in our heart
38:38
Speaker 3: to cleave to the Lord. We only gave God lip service.
38:43
Speaker 3: The Bible says, that's being hypocritical as being Luke Warren.
38:52
Speaker 3: The Lord says, I wish you were colder or even high, Like,
38:57
Speaker 3: if you're gonna do your own thing, go do it.
38:58
Speaker 3: Why playing und I don't wait it? Why hang out
39:01
Speaker 3: in the church when you're not gonna give your life
39:04
Speaker 3: to the Lord. And we need to talk to ourselves
39:09
Speaker 3: that way, like we need to be real about this thing.
39:12
Speaker 3: Hey man, all right, well, thank you for joining us.
