0:00 We invite the devil into the church, but we don't invite the Holy Spirit. Christianity is the only religion that has authority. We own the devil, and in the end, you will have the last laugh, not the devil. Brother, I gotta ask you first and foremost, what is the devil's playbook? The devil's playbook is the methods of the enemy, the methods of the demonic kingdom, the footsteps of the demonic kingdom, the arsenals of the demonic kingdom, the attack, the schemes, the wild, the setup, the delays of the demonic kingdom. Christians don't see it. Christians don't understand it. Christians don't know how to, Christians haven't been fully discipled in spiritual warfare, and this book has the ingredients to get you there.
0:42 Help us understand, how did you come to understand about the spiritual warfare and these weapons that we need to be wielding? Well, my life was, as you know, 25 years serving the devil faithfully. I'm like the opposite of the apostle Paul. Paul said he served the Lord flawlessly. He served the Lord 100%, he served the Lord, and he prosecuted Christians. I served the devil faithfully. There was no wrinkle, there was no mistakes, me serving the devil the way I did. I did it wholeheartedly to serve the devil. I learned the demonic kingdom, I learned the methods, I learned the strategies, I learned the entrapment of the demonic kingdom, because I was equipped to put this on people's lives, Christians and non-Christians alike.
1:30 So you weren't just somebody dabbling with the occult or witchcraft, you were deep and heavy. I was the occult. Yeah. I was the occult. It's like today, we have, like say today, right, we have the one world order, right, we have luminaries, right? People say, you got Jay-Z and you got Beyonce, and I'm just gonna call it the way it is, right? You got like Mark Anthony, Jennifer Lopez, P. Diddy, oh, we luminaries. No, you're not, you're dabbling. You puppets on a stage that you can't see. The luminaries are the rock chowfs. The luminaries are the Rockefellers. You'll never reach that kind of money.
2:11 You'll never reach that kind of status. They're using you for they're doing. They're using you to bring the demonic to the forefront. But you're a pawn in the chess game. You're not the king, you're not the queen, you're not the bishop, you're just a pawn. Yes, they let you say what you wanna say, to a certain extent. Yes, they let you talk the way you wanna talk. Yes, they let you advertise their logo, but you don't own the logo. They own the logo. And this is in the demonic kingdom. I didn't dabble. I was in that kingdom that I own part of the logo of what the demonic kingdom was about. So today, I'm able to come and train my brothers and sisters and equip my brother system, not out of something of a fairy tale or something out of, I think this is the way it works.
2:58 No, I know the way it works. I know you say that there is doorways and things that we open up, whether we realize it or not. Let's talk about some of those things that actually give the devil access and specifically about these half-time shows. To Christians or to Christians? So you're talking about non-believers? Either or. Let's talk about- Well, non-believers are a bunch of idiots. I mean, bottom line, bunch of idiots. You're playing into a stage that the script is not yours. You're acting, you're an actor on a stage that doesn't belong to you. And Jesus, us Christians, we are part of a kingdom, right? We hold shares, part of a kingdom that we do in the work of the Lord Jesus Christ.
3:41 That's us. We are going somewhere. We have a future where we're going. Eternity, heaven, paradise, a place that people don't cry. We don't say goodbye. People don't get sick. People don't die. We're going somewhere awesome. These people that they bought at a cheap price, right? Because you can't sell your soul to the devil, by the way. You can sell your allegiance, your time, and your devotion. That's what you sell. You can't sell the deed of your soul because the deed of your soul, Jesus owns it. He owns your car. You see, so you can't sell that. But these luminaries and the Freemasons and these occult practices, whatever practices they are, like the one I was in, they give you the illusion that you can sell something that doesn't belong to you.
4:32 And then they make you part of something that you feel that you belong to, but it is a fantasy. It is the reality of it. It's a false reality. Let's put it this way. So when they put you on stage on the Grammys or halftime football game, you're just an idiot up there doing someone else's dirty work. And I say the truth because bottom line, I was an idiot for 25 years of my life. I was doing the devil's work and trying to make him happy and trying to please him and trying to fulfill something that had a dead end to it. So today, Christians, we open doors in our lives because we enter eye gate, ear gate, mouth gate, wind, mind, heart.
5:16 These are portals and gateway that the devil understand that if I can get in one of those doors, I have access of your life. And this is so key about the devil's playbook. It is teaching you, equipping you, it's discipling you to be the vessel of honor that the Lord Jesus Christ could. Yes, it's fine. You're gonna have dents on your armor. It's like, I was yesterday, I went to Times Square Church and I just said, it's wanting it. I haven't been there three and a half years. I'm watching online. And I went yesterday. And the first thing they were talking about spiritual warfare. And he made a great analogy about football. And he said, he pre-taped the games because he's preaching, he's out and about.
5:57 But he know his team won. Yes, they take dents. Yes, they take hits. Yes, they fumble the ball. Yes, they throw the ball. But in the end of the game, they win. You see? So Christians, yes, your arm is gonna take some dent. It's gonna take some hit, but you're gonna win. But you keep the doors closed. So John, let's talk about the way that some of these doorways get opened. I used to see the devil in person, right? He'd come in different ways, right? In different facets, different forms, different attitudes. He'll come in different characteristics. When I used to meet him, when I was in BC before Christ. But he's still the same devil. I mean, I can dress up in green. I look like a leprechaun today, right? But then I can wear blue and look like a smurf, but I'm still John.
6:39 And people attempt to not see that. And we open doors and generational curses are increased and sickness is increased in our family. And our bloodline curses, demonic curses are there. The devil said, well, now he tells heaven, I got rights. You can't stop me. They open the door. And the Bible said, if you don't come to repentance and renunciation, those rights are still gonna be there. And that's when Christians suffer the consequences of their spiritual actions. And they're laid on, they wanna blame the church, they wanna blame the pastor, they wanna blame God, but they don't point the finger to themselves. How did I get here? Yeah, so how do people get there? What are some of these ways that people open up these doors?
7:20 One thing, right here, right here, this is the blueprint of how the methods of the devil, exposing the devil. This is what Christians say. I'm being attacked by Jezebel. I'm being attacked by a python spirit. It's too late. The footsteps on the hallway, you missed the footsteps on the hallway. You missed the spiritual footsteps of that devil that was walking down the hallway before the door was opened into your season, your life, your purpose and your destiny. If I'm being attacked by some demonic force, I really, I missed the footsteps. I missed the way it operates. In my life as myself, with things, spiritual things, I feel the atmosphere has changed.
8:03 I feel things are not right. I feel a check in my spirit. Before the attack come, before the storm shows up, before the hurricane shows up in Florida or North Carolina, which we pray for those wonderful people, before it show up, you feel the winds, the waves of silence change. Those are the footsteps before the hurricane shows up. So in the spirit realm, Christians don't see it because they're not trained, they're not equipped to have the sermon. You can have the sermon, but if you don't know the footsteps, if you don't know the methods of the enemy, your sermon ain't gonna do nothing. Your sermon ain't gonna do nothing for you. Understand? David was a king. David was a warrior. Before he was a king, David was a killer. David was poetic.
8:43 He can play music. I mean, David was a Renaissance, but his biggest enemy was standing on his right side on his blind spot. So, he didn't see it. You see? So what's standing on your blind spot? What footsteps? And exposing the devil's playbook, it's gonna teach you the method, the footsteps of the enemy before he shows up at your door, before he shows up in your marriage, before he shows up in your house. Church, ministry, purpose, destiny. You see the footsteps. If you can see the footsteps, you could be on the offense before, you could be on the offense. You don't have to be in the defense all the time. And then this is the famous words of every Christian, I'm waiting on God. I'm waiting on God.
9:24 Yeah, I mean, I'm not waiting on God. You need to be on the offense. God will always do his part. God's telling me, what you do yours. Yeah. God said, I will always do my part, John, but I will never do yours. You gotta do your part. We're in partnership. Two hands clapping, we're in covenant with the kingdom. You know, the kingdom suffer vanity, the vanity take it back by force. We ain't covenant. Christians been disciples to say, oh, God paid everything in the cross. He paid for all your sins in the cross, past, present, and future, but you still have to fight. And the closer you wanna get to the Lord, the more, the bigger the fight. But if you wanna be a lukewarm Christian, you wanna be one of them, you know, Sunday Christians, a Christian d'or, you wanna be a Christian d'or Christian, then the devil don't worry about the devil, doesn't worry about you not, if you gonna make heaven or not.
10:09 Because the bottom, the truth be told, God is not part of my life. God is my whole life. Mm. Yeah. So what are some of these footsteps in people's lives that they don't even realize? And let's talk about how to pivot that and turn into the, and go into the offensive as quickly as possible. Well, really quick. I mean, one of the first step, I write in one of the chapters of Faith in Dog Times, that's one of the chapters in the book. And I give the analogy of Michael Phelps. Michael Phelps won 28 medals, 23 gold. And before he got to the gold medal part, before he got to the Olympic, his coach was training him to swim in the pool in different aspects, in different conditions, in different opportunity to swim in the pool.
10:53 Sometimes the coach would turn off the whole lights and let him swim in the dark. Sometimes the coach would put holes in his goggles. So his water would go into his goggles and swim back and forth to understand the pool, to know how to swim in the pool, to know how many laps it takes, how many strokes it takes, how many times it takes to flip on the wall and come back. In Beijing, he threw himself in the water and the goggles got filled with water. But the training kicked in. And then when he took off the goggles, he heard the people cheering. And he was saying, he was cheering for the next track because he couldn't see a thing. When he took the goggles, he broke the world record. Why? Because he knew how to swim in the dark. He was trained to swim in the dark. And exposing the devil's playbook is teaching you how to swim in the dark.
11:33 You don't have to see what's going on. You just gotta trust God, swim in the dark, know the methods of the enemy, know how to apply your spiritual weapons against those things. So you can kill, still destroy, whatever the devil has on you. Instead of using that word on you, use it on him from afar. That's why you have to be a spiritual sniper. They ain't gonna shoot you from close. I'm gonna shoot you from 50 yards before you show up to my house. You know, I don't need you to show up to my house and I don't know if you overeat. You know, take care of spiritual business before it shows up at your doorstep. And that's what the book is about. The ingredients of this book, I mean the book right now, I think is best ranked seller, it's like 2,800. They already got close to 30 reviews in two weeks.
12:16 It's touching people's lives, five stars. And people being touched, people are saying, my God, I never seen this before. Oh man, now I understand it. Now I can walk in it, now I can live in it. And I can finish in it with victorious as a believer in Jesus Christ. There's a lot of deception out there right now and people that are calling good evil and evil good. And you read a whole chapter about the woke church. And I'd like to hear your take on that and what is going on in our culture right now. And the woke church. I mean, look at the practices, look at the satanic practices in the church. Look at the profane practice in the church. No fear of God anymore. You lost the fear of God. You lost the fear of God, you don't anything.
12:57 You don't have a God. You don't have a thermometer of direction. How to live holy. Look at the practices, look at the churches today doing trick or treat, practicing these demonic holidays. Look, when I was a devil worshiper, you would have never, even if you paid me a million dollars, he tried to give me a million dollars, come to church on Good Friday. No way. What would a devil worshiper has to do with Good Friday? I hated Good Friday. I didn't want no Good Friday in my life. I don't care about Good Friday, I don't care about no cross. I don't care about no crucifixion. That didn't mean nothing to me. It means the world to me now. It means my life to me now. But back then, you ain't catch no devil worshiper saying, oh, I'm here on Good Friday.
13:37 I can't wait till the service starts. No way. Today, we invite the devil into the church, but we don't invite the Holy Spirit anymore. The desecration of the church is just crazy. I mean, it is demonic, the woke church. We practice the things of the kingdom of darkness into our church, and settling the church influence, the kingdom of darkness, and getting people saved, baptized, deliver, conviction, salvation, the truth. Let the truth set you free. No, but it is popularity, I wanna be famous. You know, what happened to the church, the woke church, we love the things we do, but we don't love who we do it for anymore.
14:18 That's what I wrote in the book. We love it, we love the things we do, because it brings attention to us, but we don't love. We don't love the person we do it for anymore, which is Jesus Christ. We don't do that anymore. So the big issues that we have really come to, we don't love Jesus the way that we think we do. No, we don't, we lost our first love. I mean, in one of the churches in Revelation, they lost their first love, and he said, we rich, we this, we that. You know, because you're rich, and you got a private jet. Ain't nothing wrong with a private jet. I mean, ain't nothing wrong with a private jet. Ain't nothing wrong with you got a yacht. Ain't nothing wrong with those things. It's just how you practice. It's what you do, which first in your life. I mean, a lot of people in the Bible was rich.
15:00 Adam was rich, Adam was rich, Abraham was rich, David was rich, Solomon was rich. There's a lot of rich people in the Bible. You know, they weren't broke, but they loved God. They wanted God more than anything in their lives. They didn't flaunt their riches. They didn't put the riches before them. You know, you got these idiots today, call themselves bishops and pastors and whatever. You know, they flaunt stuff. I flaunt the cross. I flaunt the Lord Jesus Christ. Paul said, I'm dead to the world, and I'm alive in Christ. And this is, and the book, exposing the devil's playbook, it teach you how to live that life, the Christian, the values of Christian life.
15:42 Because if you can live that life in the book, and do the strategies, understanding the methods, the chessboard game of the enemy, how he moves, how he strategize, how he sets you up, how he try to conquer you, understanding those methods. Would you understand? To the power and anointing of the whole spirit, you have the authority. We're the only religion that has authority over the devil. Think about it. Christianity is the only religion that has authority. We own the devil. Yeah. The devil owns every other religion. Wow. So John, you've had tremendous experience, or not tremendous, but you've had a lot of experience for those 25 years being on the other side.
16:24 And you've had a lot of experiences where you were face to face with the devil. Tell me about what that was like, and how God rescued you from that. Well, you know, I mean, that was just, you know, I was a slave master. I was a slave to the enemy's camp for 25 years, lived in fear, because you live in fear, but if you leave, the devil kills you. I mean, look at the life of P. Diddy today, right? The devil don't need him anymore. Look what he has had today. I pray for him. I'm, you know, everybody's sinned. Everybody falls short. In my agreement with the sin of P. Diddy, in my agreement, say he deserved what he got. I don't talk that way.
17:04 You know why? Because we all deserve God's judgment. But look, I pray for his soul to be saved. But look, the devil don't need him anymore. The devil's done with him. The contract that he had between the devil, it's over. There's no new contract. The devil got what he wanted. He won the game. He ain't gonna renew no contract with P. Diddy. He's done. He needs Jesus. He needs to be saved. He needs the Holy Spirit to go into that jail cell and introduce the gospel to him. That's all I have to say about that. But 25 years, died, 1999, went to hell, met Jesus, met the devil, just paraphrase it. The Lord put me back into my body. I became a believer in 1999. I've been walking with the Lord for 24 years of my life.
17:46 Through trials, through relations, testings, trauma, witchcraft, to the highest point, witchcraft done to me still, but I'm still here because greatest he that lives in me, that he that lives in the world. Because one of the things I wrote in one of the chapters in the book, exposing the devil, this is when the Christians crumble. In the greatest war, I said the greatest war that's ever before that chapter talks about, you talk about Exodus seven and eight, how Moses show up, Aaron show up, God shows up, Pharaoh's there, his two magicians, and the devil. They show up in this school yard fight. This paraphrase, this school yard fight. You got 80, 81 year old.
18:29 You got God with them. You got Pharaoh. You got the two witches. They show up. Now they go back and forth doing, he dropped the staff, they do the same thing. Touches the water, they do the same thing. This is when the Christians go into the spiritual endurance kind of warfare, they see that God win one round, the devil wins another, Christians crumble. Fate crumble. Unbelief kicks in. Doubt kicks in. Fear kicks in. The devil got you. Because in the fourth round of the fight, God tells Moses, strike the dust of the earth.
19:09 And then when he strikes it, it turns into gnats. How you put a DNA and antennas and eyes on dirt? Only God can do that. And God showed up. But God knows how to draw the line and let the devil go so far. But Christians fall in the middle of the battle and they get conquered. They become victim, they become incarcerated spiritually. And this book teaches you how not to be that victim, but to be victorious in the long fight. Because people think, I pray, I fasted, I skipped McDonald's, and I'm gonna get my victory. I had no chicken McNuggets today. God's gonna show up. What about if God said, I show up in six months, and you're in that fight for six months, or you're in that fight for one year, and you're praying and fasting and you don't hear nothing from heaven.
19:53 What do you do? I teach you, I teach you, I expose the devil's label, how to stand and don't move from the place that God put you in, and you will have the victory. But don't let the devil push you back and lose your spot. Amen, don't let the devil push you back and lose your spot. Stand for victory. Stand for victory. Stand, stand, stand. The other devil might push you, but he don't move you. Yeah. The winds come, but you're still standing. The hurricane shows up, but your house, you might lose a little window, you might lose a little side panel, but you're still standing. The foundation of who you are in Christ is standing. And in the end, you will have the last laugh, not the devil.
