- 0:12Speaker 1: Devo right here?
- 0:13Speaker 2: That so when is with a Z.
- 0:14Speaker 1: Dot org, which is to celebrate on network or live
- 0:17Speaker 1: that so when is with a Z right here right now?
- 0:20Speaker 2: Amen with you? So let's go for it. Man. Today,
- 0:24Speaker 2: officially in my region, for at least.
- 0:27Speaker 1: The academies and the charter schools, I think today is
- 0:36Speaker 1: the official first day.
- 0:37Speaker 2: Amen. I know for me and my.
- 0:39Speaker 1: Household, our ninety roads going into believe fourth grade. Amen,
- 0:44Speaker 1: I can't believe how fast time is going. And if
- 0:47Speaker 1: you have children, you already know what I'm talking about.
- 0:50Speaker 1: It goes from one day to the next. It seems
- 0:52Speaker 1: like a blink of an eye. And your kids are
- 0:54Speaker 1: already growing up so fast. Amen, even if you have
- 0:57Speaker 1: an infant, get ready, time is gonna goes by so fast.
- 1:01Speaker 1: And in that so fast time, we have a society
- 1:04Speaker 1: and in a world that our children are entering into
- 1:07Speaker 1: that are trying to make things normal that should.
- 1:10Speaker 2: Not be normalized yet. Amen. We shouldn't.
- 1:13Speaker 1: It shouldn't be that quick to be normalized. Right, But
- 1:16Speaker 1: we're gonna be talking about profanity. And know we're not
- 1:20Speaker 1: gonna be cursing up in here. Know we're not gonna
- 1:22Speaker 1: be cursing up a storm. But profanity is mentioned in
- 1:25Speaker 1: the scriptures amen a lot throughout the scriptures. And God
- 1:30Speaker 1: doesn't want us to come out of our mouths out
- 1:32Speaker 1: of turn and speak bad and negative things out of
- 1:35Speaker 1: very own mouth, the Bible says. The Bible says that
- 1:39Speaker 1: out of the tongue comes life and death. Out of
- 1:42Speaker 1: our mouth, we could speak life, and out of the
- 1:44Speaker 1: our same mouth we could speak death. So obviously we
- 1:49Speaker 1: should be speaking life. But why do people speak death?
- 1:52Speaker 1: And why do people use profanity? There could be a
- 1:54Speaker 1: lot of reasons. When I see a young person, because
- 1:57Speaker 1: I'm in school Molde, right, and I'm seeing a lot
- 1:59Speaker 1: of young people going to school and everything. When I
- 2:01Speaker 1: see or hear them speaking in negative ways, it may
- 2:06Speaker 1: be cursing, maybe swearing, just using loose language. I'm thinking
- 2:12Speaker 1: about what's going on at home that they get that
- 2:14Speaker 1: from somewhere, right, Maybe they could be in a forster
- 2:17Speaker 1: situation or a parent situation where it's just not good,
- 2:21Speaker 1: it's not healthy and man, and I think about I
- 2:24Speaker 1: think about those things. I don't know about you, but
- 2:27Speaker 1: I think about the things what's going on in their
- 2:29Speaker 1: life that they're coming out and they're using profanity, right,
- 2:33Speaker 1: So it could be a lot of things, a lot
- 2:35Speaker 1: of different things. But we're gonna really be praying. We're
- 2:38Speaker 1: gonna be praying for our kids, for this world system
- 2:43Speaker 1: that's corrupt. We're gonna pray protection from the world system.
- 2:47Speaker 1: The world system ain't going nowhere. So if you think
- 2:50Speaker 1: I'm here to tell you, oh, there's gonna be a
- 2:52Speaker 1: tremendous revival, I'm not a revivalist.
- 2:54Speaker 2: And I know a lot of my peers be like, man,
- 2:56Speaker 2: that's negative right there.
- 2:57Speaker 1: What do you mean is that could be no revival. Listen,
- 3:00Speaker 1: the revival is already happening. The revival already happened when
- 3:03Speaker 1: you got saved, When I got saved, that was a revival.
- 3:06Speaker 2: Amen.
- 3:07Speaker 1: So individual revivals. I believe that all day and every day.
- 3:10Speaker 1: But if this nation, I don't believe it is gonna
- 3:12Speaker 1: be a reviving this nation, I believe it's gonna get
- 3:14Speaker 1: worse and worse. And we are to be we are
- 3:17Speaker 1: to call out ones, right, we are the ones that
- 3:18Speaker 1: Jesus said in this world. He told us, in this world,
- 3:22Speaker 1: we will have trials and tribulations, but be of good cheer.
- 3:25Speaker 2: That's the revival.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Be of good cheer, because we know that Jesus came
- 3:28Speaker 1: already to this world, Amen, and he took care of
- 3:31Speaker 1: his business, and we need to be about our father's business.
- 3:36Speaker 1: And we're not going to speak out of turn. I
- 3:38Speaker 1: could tell what's in your heart, and you could tell
- 3:40Speaker 1: what's in my heart by what comes.
- 3:42Speaker 2: Out of our mouth. Amen.
- 3:44Speaker 1: Read that in the scriptures, out of the abundance of
- 3:47Speaker 1: the heart, the mouth speaks. So the name of God
- 3:52Speaker 1: deserves proper respect. Stop cheapening his holy name by speaking profanity.
- 3:58Speaker 1: We're gonna be in Psalms shot the seventy four, verse eighteen,
- 4:01Speaker 1: and real quick before you could send your questions, comments, concerns,
- 4:06Speaker 1: prayer requests on the live chat right away, but real quick,
- 4:09Speaker 1: real quick, before we go.
- 4:11Speaker 2: This is one of my pet peeves. Amen. And you
- 4:13Speaker 2: could look this up for yourself.
- 4:15Speaker 1: When somebody says OMG or somebody uses the word God
- 4:21Speaker 1: right and saying that's God's name, I got news for you.
- 4:25Speaker 1: God is not God's name. I know I'm gonna get
- 4:28Speaker 1: in trouble for that. God is not God's name. Think
- 4:31Speaker 1: about it, Amen, He.
- 4:32Speaker 2: Has a name.
- 4:33Speaker 1: He has many names. He has titles and names, but
- 4:37Speaker 1: God is not one of them. That's God is a
- 4:39Speaker 1: man made word that we try to make up to
- 4:41Speaker 1: try to encapitus, encapsulate, or try to figure out or
- 4:47Speaker 1: try to describe an almighty God is a believe that
- 4:52Speaker 1: came from Germany and something like that. Just look up
- 4:54Speaker 1: the word God and you'll see that it's not really
- 4:57Speaker 1: in the scriptures the way we thought it was.
- 5:00Speaker 2: Amen.
- 5:00Speaker 1: His names are all through the scriptures, but God is
- 5:03Speaker 1: not one of his names. But I'm not gonna say
- 5:06Speaker 1: I'm gonna condone people swearing and using God and they're
- 5:09Speaker 1: swear But listen, I'm just saying God is not God's name.
- 5:13Speaker 1: He has many names. Amen, how about this one. Yeshua
- 5:17Speaker 1: Hama shiak Amen, that's the name of God. So so
- 5:21Speaker 1: I'm seventy four, verse eighteen. If you have any questions, comments, concerns,
- 5:25Speaker 1: or any prayer requests, don't hesitate to leave it on
- 5:27Speaker 1: a live chat.
- 5:28Speaker 2: That's what we're here for.
- 5:29Speaker 1: If you're just listening a man on the podcast or
- 5:31Speaker 1: on Soul Winners with a Zia or g.
- 5:34Speaker 2: Live with us. Welcome back to the morning Devo.
- 5:36Speaker 1: If this is your first time, Amen, prep yourself because
- 5:40Speaker 1: this is something that's good for your soul, good for
- 5:42Speaker 1: your body, good for your mind physically, emotionally and spiritually.
- 5:46Speaker 1: God's gonna help you out today. He's going to help
- 5:49Speaker 1: you get to a place of peace. It's gonna help
- 5:51Speaker 1: you get to a place that you can endure problems
- 5:54Speaker 1: and trials and tribulations in your life. And He's gonna
- 5:57Speaker 1: change your vocabulary the same way he changed my vocabular
- 6:00Speaker 1: I haven't cursed intentionally and over.
- 6:05Speaker 2: Twenty years, no cap right.
- 6:08Speaker 1: And I say intentionally because a young young person I
- 6:13Speaker 1: won't mention their name years ago made me speak a
- 6:16Speaker 1: word real fast somebody's last name real fast. If you
- 6:20Speaker 1: said this individual's last name real fast, it turns into
- 6:23Speaker 1: a Spanish curse work. And they got me on that one.
- 6:26Speaker 1: It was a trick though it wasn't intentional. But I
- 6:29Speaker 1: haven't willfully or intentionally cursed somebody out in years.
- 6:35Speaker 2: Amen. That's all glory to God.
- 6:37Speaker 1: And I believe people change your yourocabulary as well. If
- 6:41Speaker 1: you're like us just cursing every other word. Amen, Sometimes
- 6:46Speaker 1: I didn't even know it when I was cursing.
- 6:49Speaker 2: All a storm.
- 6:50Speaker 1: I didn't really realize it, Amen, until like I saved
- 6:54Speaker 1: and realized that I was sinning. So, like I said,
- 6:57Speaker 1: and realized that profanity is against the world.
- 7:00Speaker 2: Amen. And God wants us to speak words of life,
- 7:03Speaker 2: not words of death. So let's pray first.
- 7:05Speaker 1: After we pray, we'll shut us out for like sixty seconds,
- 7:08Speaker 1: and on the other side of those sixty seconds, we'll
- 7:10Speaker 1: get right into what we're calling profanity today. That's the
- 7:14Speaker 1: title Psalm seventy four, verse eighteen. Father, I thank you
- 7:17Speaker 1: so much that your name is glorified and holy. I
- 7:23Speaker 1: respect and reverence your name, Lord Jesus. Thank you Father,
- 7:26Speaker 1: Thank you Holy Spirit for what you're doing, what you
- 7:29Speaker 1: continue to do, what you do and apply into our lives.
- 7:33Speaker 1: As you continue to teach us and show us how
- 7:35Speaker 1: to speak words of life and not words of death.
- 7:39Speaker 1: As we lo God watch our society going down the
- 7:43Speaker 1: wrong direction, we can pray and ask you, Lord God,
- 7:47Speaker 1: to help those who are seeking truth find you, help
- 7:50Speaker 1: those who need love find you, who want love finds you,
- 7:55Speaker 1: Lord Jesus, And that you would change my vocabulary and
- 7:59Speaker 1: you would change my brothers and sisters vocabulary, and we
- 8:02Speaker 1: won't speak negative profanity or anything like that. We would
- 8:05Speaker 1: speak life. And the life message we have is your message,
- 8:09Speaker 1: which is the Gospel. Thank you for your protection. Thank
- 8:12Speaker 1: you for your health to our bodies and strength to
- 8:14Speaker 1: our bones. Thank you, Lord God, that you have gathered
- 8:17Speaker 1: your people for these end time days to be the
- 8:20Speaker 1: mouthpiece of what you're saying, and what you're saying clearly
- 8:24Speaker 1: to this world. You're beacon of hope, You're beacon of love,
- 8:27Speaker 1: You're beaking of mercy, You're beacon of grace. You Low God,
- 8:31Speaker 1: all the strong tower, and we trust and believe in you.
- 8:35Speaker 1: I pray, Lord God, a head of protection for every
- 8:37Speaker 1: single person that's watching and listening right now over my
- 8:39Speaker 1: household as well my family, my whole entire bloodline, from
- 8:43Speaker 1: the very youngest family member in school to the very
- 8:45Speaker 1: oldest family member that's going to school. Guide, guard and
- 8:49Speaker 1: protect them in Jesus' name, as you would do the
- 8:51Speaker 1: same for every single individual on the other side of
- 8:54Speaker 1: this mic and the other side of the screen, them
- 8:56Speaker 1: and their whole entire household. For all those parents that
- 9:00Speaker 1: have children going to school and kids going to school,
- 9:03Speaker 1: all the way from pre k to past college. That
- 9:07Speaker 1: you are guide guard to protect our mouths and what
- 9:09Speaker 1: we say to one another, because I know in your
- 9:11Speaker 1: word it says it matters. So I speak life, and
- 9:15Speaker 1: I continue to trust in your word, and I speak
- 9:18Speaker 1: peace over every single person right now at the sound
- 9:20Speaker 1: of my voice in Jesus name, Amen and Amen. By
- 9:24Speaker 1: the Rickie, I see you, good morning, God bless you.
- 9:26Speaker 1: Welcome to the morning Devo. It's good to see my
- 9:29Speaker 1: brother and my friend. So let's go for it. Take
- 9:31Speaker 1: sixty seconds. Help me share this out. When we come back,
- 9:34Speaker 1: we'll get right into it. I'll be right back.
- 11:04Speaker 2: A man. We're back.
- 11:04Speaker 1: We're back, Jolie, God bless you. How are you, God
- 11:07Speaker 1: bless you. Welcome to the morning Devo.
- 11:10Speaker 2: Amen.
- 11:10Speaker 1: May the Holy Spirit guide us all a man yes,
- 11:13Speaker 1: without his guidance, listen.
- 11:16Speaker 2: We're gonna go in the wrong direction. Holy Spirit help us. Yes.
- 11:19Speaker 1: Thank you so much for your comment. Since to Juanne,
- 11:22Speaker 1: I see you, good morning, God bless you. Welcome back
- 11:25Speaker 1: to the morning Devls. Good to see you, my sister,
- 11:27Speaker 1: my friend. So let's go for it. Let's see what
- 11:29Speaker 1: the Word has for us today. I know a lot
- 11:31Speaker 1: of parents out there, including me and my wife. We're
- 11:34Speaker 1: gonna take our daughter first day of school today.
- 11:37Speaker 2: Amen.
- 11:37Speaker 1: It's exciting, it's happy and sade, it's all emotional at
- 11:41Speaker 1: the same time, right as we know that we have to,
- 11:44Speaker 1: you know, deliver our child into a place where we
- 11:47Speaker 1: have to trust the place to continue to.
- 11:50Speaker 2: Keep our daughter safe, and we have to trust people. Amen.
- 11:54Speaker 1: And I don't know about you, but for me, it's
- 11:56Speaker 1: hard to trust strangers like that with your very own child.
- 11:59Speaker 1: So I rely we rely on God first, Amen, to
- 12:03Speaker 1: help guid guard and protect us, and like Jolie said,
- 12:07Speaker 1: to guide us and all the steps that we take.
- 12:11Speaker 1: And hopefully we make the right decision based on what
- 12:13Speaker 1: we say over our children, so that way they can
- 12:16Speaker 1: make the right decision based on what they hear us say.
- 12:19Speaker 1: And when they're coming against people or hearing people or
- 12:23Speaker 1: hearing kids on their age talking out of turn and
- 12:28Speaker 1: just acting out because of what they're facing in their
- 12:31Speaker 1: own household, then I always tell my daughter just listen
- 12:34Speaker 1: and be kind, keep your distance. Somebody's violent, protect yourself,
- 12:38Speaker 1: but keep your distance. Don't judge people because nobody knows
- 12:41Speaker 1: everybody's story. And don't assume are we telling this every year.
- 12:45Speaker 1: Don't assume that everybody has a household like you have
- 12:48Speaker 1: a household. Don't assume that everybody is a believer in Christ,
- 12:53Speaker 1: that believes in God.
- 12:54Speaker 2: Don't assume that people have a mom and dad at home.
- 12:58Speaker 2: That's not the case.
- 13:00Speaker 1: A lot of kids are struggling and hurting, Amen, And
- 13:03Speaker 1: I pray for those kids, and I pray for those families.
- 13:07Speaker 1: And I know, and I'm mindful, and I'm watchful, and
- 13:10Speaker 1: I'm observant of what's happening in our society, in our
- 13:13Speaker 1: community and my region especially, I could see what's going on.
- 13:18Speaker 2: Amen.
- 13:19Speaker 1: I pray to God that everyone will come to a loving,
- 13:22Speaker 1: saving knowledge of who Jesus is, and that we will
- 13:25Speaker 1: be at peace with one another knowing who God is through.
- 13:28Speaker 2: The Lord Jesus and by way of His Holy Spirit.
- 13:30Speaker 2: That's my prayer. I think about that a lot. Amen.
- 13:33Speaker 2: I'm an evangelist, and you already know.
- 13:35Speaker 1: I'm trying to think about how I can reach the
- 13:38Speaker 1: most people with the godspel message as possible while I'm
- 13:41Speaker 1: here on this side of eternity.
- 13:43Speaker 2: So I'm trying to do my part. Amen.
- 13:45Speaker 1: I pray that you do your part, and together is
- 13:47Speaker 1: so much better when we come against things of this world.
- 13:51Speaker 2: Amen, and we just show up.
- 13:52Speaker 1: Sometimes we got to show up, and God continues to
- 13:55Speaker 1: do the rest that heavy lifting. Jesus already did it,
- 13:58Speaker 1: or we got to do is trust in Him and
- 14:00Speaker 1: put our hope and faith in him.
- 14:01Speaker 2: Amen.
- 14:02Speaker 1: He'll make a way where it seems like there's no way,
- 14:04Speaker 1: but he will make away right for fantasy Psalm, chapter seventy,
- 14:09Speaker 1: fourth verse number eighteen. Let's see what the word of
- 14:12Speaker 1: God has for us today.
- 14:13Speaker 2: Amen.
- 14:15Speaker 1: The Word of God says, Remember how the enemy has
- 14:19Speaker 1: mocked you, Lord, how foolish people have revolved your name. Listen,
- 14:25Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now. You saw it in the Olympics.
- 14:29Speaker 1: We weren't seeing things at the time of this recording
- 14:32Speaker 1: of this year when the Olympics happened. Tremendous mockery of
- 14:36Speaker 1: our Lord and our savior, the Lord Jesus, tremendous mockery
- 14:40Speaker 1: of the Last Supper, tremendous mockery of our belief in
- 14:45Speaker 1: God right, and how they mock our Lord. Those are
- 14:50Speaker 1: foolish people, according to the scriptures. How foolish people have
- 14:55Speaker 1: revioled your name. How foolish is a person who tries
- 14:59Speaker 1: to say there is no God. You know, they have
- 15:02Speaker 1: a national holiday for people like that. It's called April
- 15:05Speaker 1: Fool's Day because the Bible says only a fool says
- 15:08Speaker 1: in their heart that there is no God Psalm seventy
- 15:11Speaker 1: four eighteen. Remember how the enemy has mocked you, Oh Lord,
- 15:15Speaker 1: how foolish people have avowed your name. That's a curse.
- 15:21Speaker 1: When do you realize when you speak a curse word,
- 15:24Speaker 1: the word curse is in that word. And guess what
- 15:28Speaker 1: curse words are. You're cursing a person like witchcraft, You're
- 15:35Speaker 1: placing not a blessing, but you're placing a curse over
- 15:40Speaker 1: people and man. So it's shocking to me how people
- 15:44Speaker 1: don't see that when you curse God's name, when you
- 15:48Speaker 1: use this name in vain, you are actually pronouncing a curse.
- 15:52Speaker 1: And listen, last time I checked. If I try to
- 15:55Speaker 1: curse God, which I don't, ain't gonna hurt him. Nothing's
- 16:00Speaker 1: that happened to God. Whether I bless him, I'm not
- 16:02Speaker 1: helping him. When I curse him, I'm not hurting him.
- 16:05Speaker 1: God is eternal, almighty, all powerful. He's sovereign a man,
- 16:09Speaker 1: He's above means above you. His ways are not like
- 16:12Speaker 1: our ways. His thoughts are not like our thoughts. He's
- 16:15Speaker 1: way above that. He's supreme other. He's the uber other.
- 16:19Speaker 1: He is other minded. He is eternal. He doesn't sit
- 16:25Speaker 1: and look out a calendar on a wall and be like, well,
- 16:28Speaker 1: today is on Tuesday, so you know I gotta do this.
- 16:31Speaker 2: No, God is eternal. He sits outside of time.
- 16:34Speaker 1: He showed up in our time in the form of
- 16:36Speaker 1: a man named Jesus to show us the way, the truth,
- 16:38Speaker 1: and the life, which is Jesus a man. He showed
- 16:41Speaker 1: us the kingdom which Jesus allows us to get into.
- 16:45Speaker 1: He's the King of kings, remember that, and the Lord
- 16:47Speaker 1: of lords. So when we use God's name and we
- 16:50Speaker 1: viol against his name, when we mock his name, when
- 16:53Speaker 1: we call other Christians and other brothers and sisters by
- 16:56Speaker 1: name that is not their name, a man, and you're
- 16:58Speaker 1: cursing them out, placing a curse not over them, but
- 17:02Speaker 1: you're placing a curse over God's people. And don't play
- 17:06Speaker 1: around with that. Don't play around with that. God is
- 17:10Speaker 1: not mocked. The Bible says, do not be deceived, do
- 17:13Speaker 1: not be tricked and thinking that God is mocked. Whatever
- 17:16Speaker 1: we sow whatever, so we reap. In other words, what
- 17:19Speaker 1: we say, it of our mouths is a reflection of
- 17:22Speaker 1: what's in our heart, to indicate it of what's in
- 17:25Speaker 1: our heart. Out of the abundance of this the heart,
- 17:29Speaker 1: the mouth speaks. Amen, So be careful. I could tell
- 17:33Speaker 1: where you are in your spiritual walk. Get a clue
- 17:36Speaker 1: where you are in the spiritual walk. If we had
- 17:38Speaker 1: a conversation and then it got a little heated, and
- 17:41Speaker 1: then some f bombs come out of your mouth, And
- 17:44Speaker 1: if it ever came out of my mouth.
- 17:45Speaker 2: Then you know where my heart is. Amen.
- 17:48Speaker 1: So be careful what you say and who you say too,
- 17:51Speaker 1: especially to the one who's sovereign and control, the lover
- 17:55Speaker 1: of our souls. Imagine cursing out somebody that loves you, right,
- 18:00Speaker 1: speaking bad and negative and mocking somebody who genuinely loves you,
- 18:05Speaker 1: that wants the very best for you. Doesn't make any sense, right,
- 18:08Speaker 1: But yet we might be the people doing that a man,
- 18:12Speaker 1: including myself, if I'm not careful, if I'm not mindful
- 18:15Speaker 1: of what I'm speaking. So I have young kids, right,
- 18:19Speaker 1: who would have thought that after all these years I
- 18:21Speaker 1: have a thirty something year old son nine and a
- 18:24Speaker 1: three year old at this time, two daughters, a nine
- 18:28Speaker 1: year old and a three year old from this time
- 18:29Speaker 1: of this recording. And I'm a little up in age
- 18:32Speaker 1: right now. God had a plan to make it all
- 18:36Speaker 1: happen in his perfect timing.
- 18:38Speaker 2: Amen.
- 18:39Speaker 1: So I have to be mindful what I say to
- 18:40Speaker 1: my thirty something year old son. I got to be
- 18:42Speaker 1: mindful what I say to my nine year old, and
- 18:44Speaker 1: I have to be mindful what I say to my.
- 18:45Speaker 2: Three year old.
- 18:46Speaker 1: I don't want to pronounce curses over my very own
- 18:49Speaker 1: flesh and blood. I want to pronounce some blessings. So profanity, Amen,
- 18:54Speaker 1: is an issue with God. And we see it all
- 18:58Speaker 1: through guys where I'm aproven with other scriptures.
- 19:01Speaker 2: Amen.
- 19:02Speaker 1: So getting some amen's over here. I know how it is. Man,
- 19:06Speaker 1: I'm not the only one. That's why if I'm concerned
- 19:09Speaker 1: about something, I always think about it this way. I'm
- 19:12Speaker 1: not the only one, Amen. I'm not the only one
- 19:15Speaker 1: that's being concerned about something. If profanity was brought up
- 19:20Speaker 1: to my attention by the Lord by way of his
- 19:23Speaker 1: Holy Spirit, and that means somebody else is going through
- 19:27Speaker 1: this or thinking this through as well. Right, I'm not
- 19:30Speaker 1: the last of the Mohicans like people say, I'm together
- 19:35Speaker 1: with you, a man, I'm learning right now with you
- 19:38Speaker 1: on this morning.
- 19:39Speaker 2: Devo. Sorry, I'm looking the other way.
- 19:40Speaker 1: I forgot to put the law stream on the website,
- 19:44Speaker 1: but there goes Amen. So I'm learning with you and man,
- 19:48Speaker 1: we're traveling together, amen on this road that's narrow that
- 19:52Speaker 1: the world mocks us.
- 19:54Speaker 2: For you guys are so narrow. I bet you can't
- 19:57Speaker 2: do this, and I bet you can't do this. They
- 19:59Speaker 2: don't know the scriptures.
- 20:00Speaker 1: The Bible says we could do anything we want to do,
- 20:02Speaker 1: but not everything that we do will be beneficial if
- 20:05Speaker 1: it's outside the will of God. Right, So you could
- 20:09Speaker 1: tell by what people say when they mock our Lord,
- 20:12Speaker 1: when they mock our Bible. And then you sell cat
- 20:16Speaker 1: what part of the Bible don't you understand? And they say, well,
- 20:18Speaker 1: all of it. It's a you know, it's a trick.
- 20:21Speaker 1: It's being rewritten, it's false, it's not relevant no more.
- 20:26Speaker 1: You have to hear what people are saying. It's coming
- 20:28Speaker 1: out of their own heart and coming out of their
- 20:30Speaker 1: own mouth. And when they start cursing and they're angry
- 20:33Speaker 1: and you know they get violent, all that stuff. There's
- 20:36Speaker 1: a reason for all of that, and I'll put mental
- 20:39Speaker 1: health to the side for that.
- 20:40Speaker 2: Amen.
- 20:41Speaker 1: It's not always mental health. It could be demonic possession.
- 20:46Speaker 1: It could be upbringing. It could be a household that's broken.
- 20:49Speaker 1: It could be the lashing out because they're sick in
- 20:52Speaker 1: their body. Or they can have something against God because
- 20:56Speaker 1: God hasn't performed how they want them how they want
- 21:00Speaker 1: God to perform. Right, you have a pray to prayer
- 21:03Speaker 1: and you ask God for something. You're in desperate need
- 21:05Speaker 1: of help, and it seems like God didn't answer according
- 21:09Speaker 1: to your request, but he answered.
- 21:11Speaker 2: Amen. Might not be the way we want it to answer.
- 21:15Speaker 1: But God does answer, and he has the very best
- 21:18Speaker 1: answer because he has the very best for us. God
- 21:20Speaker 1: doesn't curse us out right, He blesses us up and
- 21:25Speaker 1: he brings us into his kingdom.
- 21:27Speaker 2: Amen. He brings us into his marvelous light. He takes
- 21:31Speaker 2: us out of our darkness.
- 21:32Speaker 1: We could speak negative, negative, negative, negative and end up
- 21:35Speaker 1: in a dark, negative spot because of what we're saying
- 21:38Speaker 1: over ourselves. Right, It's like we speak words and then
- 21:41Speaker 1: we follow those words. So I try to speak God
- 21:44Speaker 1: and follow after that, follow after him.
- 21:47Speaker 2: Amen. I don't remember when I use God's name in vain.
- 21:50Speaker 1: I probably have and man that according to scriptures, we
- 21:53Speaker 1: all have, but we all fall short of the glorious
- 21:57Speaker 1: standards of God. And one of his glorious standards is
- 22:00Speaker 1: using our mouth to speak life not death. We have
- 22:03Speaker 1: a choice, right, We can have a choice between life
- 22:06Speaker 1: and death, spiritually right. We could be walking around, we
- 22:11Speaker 1: could be rich, we could have all what the world offered,
- 22:14Speaker 1: but we could be spiritually dead. That's why the bioble says,
- 22:18Speaker 1: what profits a man to gain the whole world and
- 22:22Speaker 1: lose his soul? And the process doesn't make any sense?
- 22:26Speaker 1: And we see it all the time. We see it
- 22:29Speaker 1: in the rap music industry, the second rap music industry.
- 22:33Speaker 1: These young men and young women were talent. Man they
- 22:36Speaker 1: have They're gifted, They're talented. They can move nations, they
- 22:39Speaker 1: can influence the culture. They can influence my daughters, they
- 22:42Speaker 1: can influence your kids and my kids.
- 22:44Speaker 2: They can influence a whole nation.
- 22:46Speaker 1: Yet they're using curse and curse words, profanity to make
- 22:51Speaker 1: their message more popular, and people gravitate to those things,
- 22:56Speaker 1: especially on social media. You already know if I went
- 22:58Speaker 1: on social media. These podcasts and these live streams have
- 23:03Speaker 1: very few listenership. But if I came on here cursing
- 23:07Speaker 1: up a storm, talking about this one, talking about that one,
- 23:09Speaker 1: talking about sex, drugs and violence, and renouncing my belief
- 23:13Speaker 1: and the Lord.
- 23:14Speaker 2: Amen, I'll get.
- 23:15Speaker 1: Thousands of views because I have enough friends on social media,
- 23:18Speaker 1: I have enough followers on social media. I have enough
- 23:21Speaker 1: influence on social media to get thousands.
- 23:24Speaker 2: But because it's.
- 23:25Speaker 1: Not a negative message right now, there's a positive message,
- 23:28Speaker 1: it's hundreds.
- 23:30Speaker 2: Amen. Maybe God could turn that around. Amen.
- 23:32Speaker 1: I trust in him. I don't put ads out there.
- 23:36Speaker 1: I don't rely on gimmicks or anything like that. I
- 23:39Speaker 1: just literally open the Word of God, read the Word
- 23:42Speaker 1: of God, and we read it together and we discuss it.
- 23:44Speaker 2: Amen.
- 23:45Speaker 1: To a lot of people, that's so boring. But for
- 23:48Speaker 1: me it's life. Amen, it's a lifeline. The Word of
- 23:51Speaker 1: God is my life. And if I don't speak the
- 23:54Speaker 1: Word of God, then is something missing in me. So
- 23:57Speaker 1: you can speak the word of God, then there'll be
- 23:59Speaker 1: something feeling you and you'll be putting out good stuff. Amen.
- 24:04Speaker 1: And you won't be putting you won't be in the
- 24:06Speaker 1: negative person in the building. You'll be the positive one.
- 24:09Speaker 1: We won't have all the answers, but we can introduce
- 24:11Speaker 1: people to the one who does have all the answers. Amen,
- 24:15Speaker 1: let me give you some more. I'm running out of
- 24:17Speaker 1: time here, Psalm eighty one, verse one. Psalm's eighty one
- 24:20Speaker 1: verse one says, Oh Lord, our Lord, how majestic is
- 24:24Speaker 1: your name? And all the earth, Right in all the earth,
- 24:28Speaker 1: not just in Bethalem, Pennsylvania, where I'm streaming, in all
- 24:32Speaker 1: the earth, not only in your territory, but in all
- 24:35Speaker 1: the earth. You have set your glory above the heavens.
- 24:40Speaker 1: God's glory is above the heavens. He's like the highest height.
- 24:46Speaker 1: No one, no spacecraft, no rocket, no astronaut, no technology,
- 24:54Speaker 1: no Wi Fi anything could reach the heights of God.
- 24:59Speaker 1: Yet he makes a present in our life. Amazing, mind boggling. Right,
- 25:04Speaker 1: How God does that? How God does that? Exodus chapter
- 25:09Speaker 1: twenty verse seven. Exodus chapter twenty verse seven says you
- 25:14Speaker 1: shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God.
- 25:18Speaker 1: For the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses
- 25:25Speaker 1: his name.
- 25:26Speaker 2: And what is his name? His name is Lord, What
- 25:28Speaker 2: is his name? Amen? His name is Jesus. What is
- 25:31Speaker 2: his name? His name is yashiahamashiih what is his name Yahweh?
- 25:37Speaker 2: What is his name? Adam?
- 25:38Speaker 1: And I what is his name el shah Dai? Those
- 25:40Speaker 1: are titles and names. Amen, so many ways you could
- 25:44Speaker 1: call upon the Lord. Right, you don't have to curse
- 25:47Speaker 1: him out. Stop cursing God. If that's you and you're
- 25:51Speaker 1: listening and watching, God is giving you a gentle rebuke
- 25:54Speaker 1: by way of his servant.
- 25:55Speaker 2: Amen. You don't want smoke with God when it comes
- 26:00Speaker 2: to your words against them. Amen.
- 26:02Speaker 1: He's a loving God. But the wrath of God is
- 26:05Speaker 1: upon all those who reject this message. The wrath of
- 26:08Speaker 1: God is upon those all those who mock him. And right,
- 26:12Speaker 1: the wrath of God is among all those people who
- 26:15Speaker 1: just are living their life according to their own will
- 26:18Speaker 1: instead of living a life according to God's will.
- 26:22Speaker 2: You don't want smoke with the Lord. Amen.
- 26:24Speaker 1: You want the love and the grace and the mercy
- 26:27Speaker 1: of God to live this life out a man. Is
- 26:30Speaker 1: one life that we're living here for the temporary. Then
- 26:33Speaker 1: we have eternal life on the other end of this.
- 26:36Speaker 1: So you have a great day as well, brother Rickie,
- 26:38Speaker 1: God bless you man. Thank you all for hanging out
- 26:40Speaker 1: with me. I'm out of time. Thank you for that
- 26:42Speaker 1: you made me look at the timer and I'm over
- 26:44Speaker 1: here talking.
- 26:45Speaker 2: Right, and we got to get out of here.
- 26:47Speaker 1: I know a lot of parents are preparing their children,
- 26:51Speaker 1: getting them up, getting them ready, amen for a new
- 26:54Speaker 1: day in school and the start of a new year.
- 26:57Speaker 2: So I bless you all the name of Jesus God.
- 26:59Speaker 1: Bless you, God keep you, and remember always that God
- 27:03Speaker 1: is good.
- 27:04Speaker 2: Peace,
