Episode #184: Spiritual Battles and Divine Transitions Pt. 1

De'Vannon Seráphino: [00:00:00] Hello, hello, all you cool kids out there and welcome back to the Sex, Drugs, and Jesus podcast. My name is De'Vannon Seráphino and I'm so excited and thrilled and thankful to Yahweh for opening the doors for me to come and sit back here in front of you again and share what he has given me to share. Today we're going to be talking about some more of the lessons that I was learning during the absence that I took.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Gosh, I think I was gone for like a month or something like that. If not longer, and just didn't do any episodes because all the changes I was going through, that is not like a normal thing, but these changes were so supernatural, so celestial, so divine in nature, it warranted it. But I learned a lot, and I think that there's some beneficial information that I can impart onto you from that.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I'm going to talk to you about some lessons learned from dealing with all of this, this dark magic that I've been dealing with here in New York. And particularly. From the book of Acts, in [00:01:00] the book of Acts in the Bible chapter 16, there's a passage in there that talks about how this one witch was following like the Apostle Paul around, and he got tired of her at a point, and then he cast the divination spirit out of her, and so we're going to talk about that, and a little bit of magical history, and sex magic, and idol worship, I really want to get, I'm going to do a different episode on that and get totally into it because that's a huge thing in society, even though it's veiled.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And I'm going to talk about this dream that I had about like a whole bunch of snakes and these beautiful, brightly colored birds in a museum. And so the website is sexdrugsandjesus. com. Let's go ahead and talk about this, my people. I speak God's blessings upon you. And I hope that you prosper and be in good health, even as your soul and mind prospers too.

De'Vannon Seráphino: So, everything happened that [00:02:00] happened in December. With the new gifts that fell upon me from Heaven when I was at the club and I was at nowadays after I had left House of Yes and all the things went down that I've talked about previously. But after that, like after the new year rolled around and God commanded me to, to temporarily close my lingerie business DownUnder Apparel, which I had had for like 10 years and to let go of the house that I had in Louisiana.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Now, it's one thing when, when you've got to let go or detach from something that, that you can understand is weighing you down and people struggle with that. But DownUnder was profitable that was making money and it had taken 10 years to get it to where it was and yet I was commanded to let it go.

De'Vannon Seráphino: So, there were certain elements of it that I can see now having gotten away from it, that weren't. Like the way certain people were trying to handle me that I was doing business [00:03:00] with and stuff like that wasn't healthy for my soul. So it did not matter if the business was profitable and making money if you're being disrespected and somebody's not talking to you right, or whatever the case may be, it's not worth your soul value, self respect, self self worth and equanimity.

De'Vannon Seráphino: It doesn't matter how much money is being made. And with the house I could have kept that, used that to rent out or whatever to make money. But what I didn't realize is that I had outgrown that house

De'Vannon Seráphino: and not just the, not just the house, but everything in it I couldn't, the Lord did not want me to go back and get anything else out of that house. So, so when I left there in December and I took a few things back up here to New York, I was planning to go back in the Spring, which is now and just take a little bit more.

De'Vannon Seráphino: But see you never know when it's going to be your last time doing something, seeing someone. Or something like that when I left [00:04:00] Louisiana in December, I had no intentions of selling the house, cleaning it out, getting rid of everything in it. And I mean, there, there was nice stuff in there, like very expensive, costly things that we, we did not get rid of stuff that like I was done with a lot of shoes and clothing expensive crystals and.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Like crystal glasses and things like that. Furniture, like stuff that I had hand selected. I mean, I hand selected everything from within there. And the Lord did not want me to go back and get any of it. It was hard. It was very, very, very, very hard. And, it just took a lot out of me emotionally to the point that I even had, like, I was enrolled in that.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I have to take one class in Shiatsu and Eastern massage theory before I can become a licensed massage therapist in New York. And I was in the middle of that semester. At that [00:05:00] school, and I had to disenroll from the class. I've never had to drop a class before in my life. I'm used to being like a straight A student, typically speaking on the dean's list Honor Roll, cum laude, that type of thing, but I had to, I had to demonstrate to God that I have enough humility to know when I've reached my breaking point.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Which it takes a lot for me because I have a high tolerance for anything I can go through a lot. I could handle a lot. I'm an intense man like that. I can take it. But, but even I have to come to a point where I'm like, okay, Jesus, this is a lot, cuz my emotions I didn't really realize.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I disenrolled from the class with the intention to, to reenroll sometimes you might just have to pull out of school or something for a moment. I plan to go back in the summer or the fall or something like that. Depends on when the classes come up, I stopped it, but we're going to begin again.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Sometimes you just have to pause and start again, baby. That's all there is to it. It's about being [00:06:00] realistic about your limitations. And I didn't do that when I moved here and I was still doing these shows when I was in the homeless shelter and renting the the conference rooms in the Brooklyn library system and going all the way from the homeless shelter in the Bronx down to the Brooklyn library system to record a show.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Cause I just didn't want to stop. I didn't want to feel defeated, but the realistic thing to have done would have been to be like, well you're going through all of this, all these changes, man, just take a break. But this time I've been able to demonstrate to the Trinity that I know how to take a break although these types of breaks here for these high spiritual reasons, are kind of like, not common.

De'Vannon Seráphino: So this is not like, for you, you got to understand for you when it's time to take a break with this type of a break for this long. Well my, my life's calling is coming online. The reason why I was put here on the earth is, is what is [00:07:00] what has been activated. So this is like a super huge deal.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And so, which is worth stepping away for a month or whatever if I needed to. And it's a strong calling and so it really has taken a lot for the Lord to deal with me behind the scenes. What's going on in public has been the public part, but the Lord really has his hand on me very heavy behind the scenes. This type of detachment here from, from things that were, that I had a perceived value from, but I didn't realize that I had outgrown.

De'Vannon Seráphino: See, the Lord is not going to ever tell you to cut something loose that is, that you need to keep. We outgrow people, we outgrow things, we may outgrow a business and we don't know. You ever see somebody sell a perfectly profitable business for millions of dollars or whatever, and you're like, wow, why would they sell that?

De'Vannon Seráphino: Well, there's a spiritual element to everything. Spiritually and internally, they probably had outgrown that business. And it does not matter how much money is making, you gotta be congruent spiritually with anything and anyone in your [00:08:00] life. And if you sit there and try to force stuff to stay, it's because you can't change and bad things will happen and you'll end up having to turn it loose anyway.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And so maturity Just being to the point where you can hear God tell you let go of that perfectly good profitable thing because there's things going on behind the scenes you don't realize and you go and you'd be quick about letting it go instead of whining about it. Okay, the emotional portion of letting go of the things in the house is really what surprised me.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Like, every time I listed something for sale washer, dryer, bedroom, furniture, whatever, and I priced it low to go. Okay. I didn't let nobody disrespect me by trying to like negotiate me down to a lower price because it was already priced like crazy low like entire living room set like 150, 250.

De'Vannon Seráphino: You're talking love seat, sofa, cocktail table in tables, lamps, accent chair. So, bruh like I wasn't trying to get rich off [00:09:00] of it. I was trying to flush out the old. And you got these devils coming up with people. I don't like the spirit of negotiation. I don't like it because it gets disrespectful really quick.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And it gets to be a power play when one person trying to play with the figures and the numbers and to try to get you to sell something for lower than what you really want. And God don't like that. I like how CarMax sells their cars, like this is the price, either you gonna take it or not, we ain't about to sit here and play these games with you.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Either you want it or you don't. That is a respectful way to do business, this is the price, yes or no, keep it simple. How does the Bible say, let your yes be yes, and your no be no, anything else cometh of evil. And the devil will get into that whole negotiation games people like to play and really, really disrespect you and snatch your equanimity down and make somebody feel like they're more powerful over you because they won the negotiation.

De'Vannon Seráphino: They haven't won anything, but they've stored up judgment and wrath against themselves for the day of judgment by disrespecting God's people and trying to force [00:10:00]somebody to work for less than what you know you could have paid them or try to buy something from somebody for less than what they've listed it.

De'Vannon Seráphino: They already got the price and I already had these prices so low. It was just like painfully low. And then some people try to ask me to go lower. I just didn't even respond. I just deleted the messages. Cuz I never have to cater to energy or anybody. I don't want to because anybody make me do nothing. I don't want to do just like anybody make you do nothing.

De'Vannon Seráphino: You don't want to do. But every time I sold something, it's like I would go through this whole emotional depression type of roller coaster cycle thing. And I was like, why am I feeling this way? It's because everything that we have in our lives, we have a spiritual like bond with, although it might not be perceptible, it is there.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I chose everything in that house. And it was special. Otherwise, I wouldn't have gotten it. I really, really put a lot of attention into anything that I bring into my life. Anything and certainly anyone. And I thought about back when I got rid of that car that I [00:11:00] had, back in the summer of like year before last, before I moved to New York.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And I was standing at the dealership. I got this like 15, 000 check in my hand and I'm but I'm feeling these emotions about letting the cargo. I'm like, I didn't know realize I had fallen in love with the thing or whatever. Why is it this way? There's There's all kinds of feelings that we'd be having that we're not aware of about things.

De'Vannon Seráphino: It doesn't mean that we worship the things, but it means something to us and it may mean more than what we think. Whether that car represent control, being able to come and go as I please. Now I got to, and I love this better actually than the car rely on the train system and public transit on my feet to get me places and I can't just hop in a car and go.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I got to go on MTA schedule, and things of that nature. And I got to rethink how I'm going to get there. Change, but every time, every time we saw something from in there, it's like I would just like being [00:12:00] like so much like agony and like crying over. I don't know, not the thing, but the severing of the tie to it and whatever it meant to me at the time and the there's a, there's a death of this entire life that I used to have and everything this house represented that's the house that I had when I was, I was homeless and then I got into that apartment that was the house that represented more independence and freedom and things like that.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I never thought that I would move away from that house, leave Louisiana or nothing like that. And yet here I am in New York and it's totally different life. You never know what's going to happen, so don't ever say never, and all this was going on in between like the end of December and like now, and so all I could do, I didn't have the mental capacity, the wherewithal to get on this camera and record anything.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I was just like. Just so gone in my head and just like and yet so present with God because through all this he's strengthening me and working on me and I'm learning how to use all these new gifts in the spirit that God keeps dropping [00:13:00] on me and everything like that because the growth has been fast has been rapid.

De'Vannon Seráphino: It has been intense. Hallelujah. Thank you. Jesus. Glory be to God. And so I'd go out to like, it's like the club, especially like The Factory over in, In Brooklyn, they have an incredible After Hours, plays a lot of Afro House deep music like that, that can really, that really moves God.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Afro House sounds like the music does in heaven, like there's a beat there that's very reminiscent of music that I hear whenever I'm in heaven. And, and, or like on that frequency, and my ears are open to the things happening in heaven. So I'd go there, do me some ketamine or whatever, and and just cry.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And just like bring how I was feeling because it's not like I was not, I was thankful for the changes and the power to even let these things go, but yet I had this sadness and I wasn't sure where it was coming [00:14:00] from about all of this detachment, but I knew it was the right direction. I knew it was the thing to do, but I was overwhelmed with emotions.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And so I would go to the club to the factory or wherever, whatever club that I was at and just like cry and just take it to the dance floor, which is to take it before the Lord. Good. And just leave with their child, and I would just let, just let it all out. I just, just let it all out.

De'Vannon Seráphino: So you might look at this and think well he's You know, closing a cycle, letting go of the old, that's true, but I really think that there's, there's far too much emphasis on the closing of the cycle to let go of the old to make way for the new and not enough emphasis on because when we become incongruent with the present, and not being aware of it, because the reason you need to close the old to let go of Of it.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Close, close the cycle, let go of the old because you've outgrown whatever is happening or whoever is around you and you're not consciously [00:15:00] aware of it. So we got to be praying to be more consciously aware of whether or not we're still in sync with people, places and things. That's why I'd be telling y'all to reassess your relationships.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I don't care if it's your lover, spouse, one of your lovers, if you have more than one, Your friends, besties, whatever, especially if it's people you haven't seen in a while, every six months to 12 months, you need to be questioning them about who they currently are because people change all the time. And they have a way of getting into things and not telling you your friends, a completely different person, say, if they started worshiping some new deity and they didn't tell you that's going to change who they are by them letting that those dark forces into their life they're completely different person.

De'Vannon Seráphino: If they started. I don't know, dating a narcissist or whatever the type might be. You got to really, really question these people you have around you intensely, intensely to see if they've changed and if y'all are still compatible and be willing to [00:16:00] make quick work of letting them go if y'all are no longer compatible.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Don't assume that people and the place and the things in your life, but especially the people, aren't going to change to the extent that you got to let them go. There's a danger in trying to abide in incongruent energy because you can't take the pain of seeing things change. It's going to change one way or the other, because you were meant to grow and to let go, not to stay the same.

De'Vannon Seráphino: This is something to rejoice over. You want to grow, but there's only so much of you to go around in the first place. And what Yahweh is trying to do is to expand you, but you're not going to be, you're not going to be granted the capacity to hold on to the old along with the new. You're going to pick one way or the other.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And the thing about. Yahweh, like, God is not gonna necessarily tell you what's on the other side once you let go. He's trying to, test your loyalty to see if you trust him enough to let go of the old without [00:17:00] knowing what else is coming or when it will come. Because you're not always gonna let go of the old and immediately lock over to the new.

De'Vannon Seráphino: It's not like not, like, letting go of an old job because you already got a new one lined up. Some things in life are not gonna be that way. Sometimes you don't have to let go of the old set and avoid for a hot second, or a hot minute, or even longer, and then eventually the new will come. But God wants to see that you love him above all.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Above absolutely everything else. Absolutely everything else, child. And and the thing about it is nothing

De'Vannon Seráphino: is permanent anyway. Like this world is already ended for all intents and purposes. We're all already dead for all intents and purposes. It's already over. Time is no more for all intents and purposes, really time is so like, it seems so illusion like these days, how [00:18:00] fast it goes and how one day and moment seems to bleed into the others.

De'Vannon Seráphino: It's like, it's not even here in the way it goes. It's like. We go through all these experiences, all these relationships, all these things we get and let go of, and it's like they just kind of wash through us because we're really a steward over everything. We don't own anything. We don't own ourselves. We don't own our children.

De'Vannon Seráphino: We don't really own our relationships. We don't own ourselves. We don't even own our bodies. Okay, we have agency and we have responsibility. But once everything has passed and gone, we have to stand before the judgment seat and give an account for how we stewarded everything. So the things that we see in the people in this form won't be here anymore, but we have accountability for everything that was.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And it was, it was very, very heavy on me because I was deciding really, really hard about whether or not to bring my cats up here. And now the lesson I learned about this is how us who provide, who like to [00:19:00] provide, can get caught up in this self told lie. And Lucifer would do his hand at helping that too.

De'Vannon Seráphino: But sometimes we get ourselves into these states where we think that the most important thing we do is to provide, and I really, really was praying about what was best for my cats to like, put them in some sort of foster home situation because I didn't want to reduce them. They had like over 2000 square feet to run around at that house in Louisiana.

De'Vannon Seráphino: My apartment up here in New York is not quite 2000 square feet. So, I was like, gosh, I don't want to reduce them. They love the space and everything like that. And and then the spirit told me eventually baby, they, they really prefer you, cats can adjust the things that you have adjusted to things.

De'Vannon Seráphino: At least give them a chance bring them up and if for some reason they just can't deal. Well, then you can try to foster them from there, but at least give the children a chance. And I was really, really thinking that they, I really wasn't thinking about [00:20:00] myself. Like that, like, wow, they really actually love me and they would just prefer to be with me and they don't, and we can make the space work.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And that's exactly what is, what has happened. I went down there recently, got them, flew them up here and everything. And they've adjusted deliciously. I've started posting a few pictures on the Tik TOK channel and everything. Maybe I'll get into some videos at some point. I'm just letting them adjust and marinade.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And and we'll just go from there, but us types of people who like to provide can get caught in that trap. So I'll caution you against that, of thinking that the beings and the people we provide for like the things more than us. And I think about it, I'm like, why would I have even thought that, that the way I was thinking, but I was so trying to do what was best for them and if, and if it was meant to let them go to be with somebody else, then I would have done that, but that's not the case.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And I'm so thankful that the Holy Ghost worked it out to have my children here with me. It really, [00:21:00] it's a better New York. It's a better New York with Felix and Felicity running their little furry behinds around here. Oh my gosh, one of them is 18 pounds, one of them is 19 pounds. Those Maine Coon mixed type cats.

De'Vannon Seráphino: They get, they get so like, robust. We'll call it robust. They're so like robust. I'm running around here almost 40 pounds of cat. Y'all should have seen me, Lord have mercy, like dealing with this at the airport with like Two, two, these two cats, these two robust cats, these two in their individual like crates and everything like that going through all of these changes.

De'Vannon Seráphino: It was, it was an experience that I absolutely will cherish for evers. But the cool thing was, like, it seemed like the more stuff I sold and got rid of out of that house, it's like Yahweh touched it in such a way that in my mind and in my [00:22:00] spirit, I felt like there was an expansion of space in this apartment.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Like being supernaturally done. It's like the more I let go of those things in Louisiana, I felt like I could breathe easier and I didn't even know that I was waiting to exhale. It was so like, interesting. It's like, I would let go of it, cry, go to the club, do my psychedelics and leave it on the dance floor.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And, and then I would just feel like, like more space was granted in this apartment, which God has power to do that because everything about your reality is how you perceive it. And it's like God was moving things around in here energetically and making space for my children to come and we don't feel cramped at all in here.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I had concerns about that. He showed me wisdom on how to put the litter boxes and everything like that. And we in here vibing, we're in here vibing. And I was sitting here worried, thinking they wouldn't like it and going through all these machinations in my mind. And it was, it has turned out to be nothing but glorious.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Everything that I worried about did not happen [00:23:00] because God has power over these things and God has done great things. And I'm so like thankful for that because fear was trying to stop me from reaching this level and having this type of joy and satisfaction in here. But God did not let that happen because God is watching over me strongly and he will watch over you if you take the time to learn how to start to pray fast and read your Bible and invite God into your life.

De'Vannon Seráphino: But I'ma tell you before I move on to like all these lessons from these witches, child, the beginning, from the end of last year to the beginning, through the beginning of this year up until now, I may have looked all put together when I went out to the club, but honey, I was toe down on the inside. It took so much for me to, even get my look together and make it out the door to, to go out.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I mean, I was toe down on the inside, but I wasn't about to go out looking toe down. I mean, I might as well. [00:24:00] Try to pull some type of handsome look together. I'm going to bother to get up and go out, but I was struggling, emotionally from, from like the end of last year with all of this detaching and letting go and trying to resort everything out.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And I'm not complaining at all, because this is how we get strong is by going through things. This is necessary I wouldn't have it any other way. I wouldn't change a thing, but but you never know what people are going through. And I'm out at these clubs, and people looking at me trying to tell me how beautiful they think I am, or how hot, or how, how cute, or handsome, or whatever, and I'm like, yo, my mind is so, like, I'm like, I just, like, I just, I just couldn't even, like, like, like the things that people tend to want to say to me, like, when I go out, but which I don't even be trying to talk to people, I'd be sitting with my sunglasses on, trying to, like, vibe on Jesus and stuff, and so, [00:25:00]but you just never know, you just never know what people are going through just by looking at them just because they child, because I was, I was just, I was just like, and this hasn't, and this is just with me and my personal, like, this has nothing to do with going to the club and dealing with all of this dark magic and stuff like that.

De'Vannon Seráphino: That's a completely different separate thing entirely. Which brings me to that. Last time I was at the factory was a couple of weeks ago 96 Morgan Avenue over there in Brooklyn. Phenomenal. Cool. Phenomenal, phenomenal music, and it's not like the largest space, it's not the smallest, but I love it when places like that, that ain't necessarily like this huge dance club, can take it like that, and the Lord touches them in that way, and it's really, really a super magical time.

De'Vannon Seráphino: That place has so much, like, meaning in it, and so, and God moves through it in such a profound way, and I just like it there. it's I'm very comfortable there. I love the music. I like the [00:26:00] way God uses those DJs, most of them. And I just like it, man. It's just really a good time now they don't open 'til like 3 AM cause it is strictly really an after hour spot, but I I really love it.

De'Vannon Seráphino: The last time, the last time I was there, I had to deal with this the same people who were trying to like, throw this magic against me, at nowadays, gathered together there at the factory, and I want you to pay attention. I want you to go read the book of Acts chapter 16, and really pay attention to this.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Because what you had at the, at the, at the daytime kind of party at factory, because it goes from like 3 a. m. to 10 a. m. Then we switch and go upstairs for the 10 a. m. to whenever they feel like closing it. Like after after party, if you will, and so I'm up there, they didn't try to cast his magic against me all night.

De'Vannon Seráphino: It's not working. And so now there's a [00:27:00] girl, I don't know, 10, another 10 or 20, 30 people. I don't know. It's like a lot of them it's one of me versus all of them because they, they, they want to come try to start something. But you have examples of this throughout the Bible. So I want y'all to pay attention.

De'Vannon Seráphino: What we're learning from here. It's how God is proving how he's moving because spiritual history has a way of repeating itself what they're doing is that is in the same vibe of like what you can go back in the Bible when you read about like Elijah versus Jezebel and her 500 prophets, which you read about, Moses and Aaron versus the magicians of Egypt, but what you read like here in Acts chapter 16, Paul, the Apostle Paul, had gone to somewhere.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I think they were on their way into Macedonia. Don't quote me on that. They were on their way somewhere, and this witch who had this divination spirit in her some devil, that's how all the dark people use their magic, some type of devil, Lucifer. assigns to them or Lucifer will just work with them [00:28:00] directly.

De'Vannon Seráphino: But that devil could see that these people were servants of the Most High God and that girl was following him around and saying things like these are the servants of the Most High God who come to show us a way to salvation. Very, very strange. But I had this girl in my face, who went so far as to put her hands on me.

De'Vannon Seráphino: The last time that I was at the factory, I went and told the doorman who didn't do anything to stop her from touching me. Then I went and told the security dude who also didn't do anything to stop her from touching me. So I was like, okay, well, I've been here for like 12 hours anyway, since 3 a. m.

De'Vannon Seráphino: It was almost 2, 3 p. m. and they were about to close anyhow. And so I was like, well, clearly it's just time for me to go, because God is letting this happen for a reason, because if God did not want her to touch me, or did not want to allow it, it would not have happened. Sometimes we have to read it a different way, instead of taking it personally, be like, what's the message here?

De'Vannon Seráphino: Maybe this is the spirit just telling me it's time to go, [00:29:00] because I've been there all night. Nobody had physically put a finger on me yet. And so if God's letting this happen, well, then maybe it's just time to leave. We done come. I had come and come, did what I wanted to do, did what the Spirit wanted me to do.

De'Vannon Seráphino: There really was nothing to stay for. I don't always have to shut the club down anyway. I mean, you ain't got but, what, less than an hour left anyway. I might as well go ahead, go to the next club, or take it to the house. Child, I done done what I came to do. And so, because they stopped nothing. They just sat there and looked like, looked how they looked trying to work against somebody, and it doesn't work because you can't defeat God.

De'Vannon Seráphino: It's really just that simple. And God is who is in me, empowering me, whereas they work for the devil. They will never win. It's just really just that simple. And so what we can do. Is extract the lessons from these things. So you got a, you got a female, in a grown man's face, trying to talk to me. I'm telling her, I don't want you to touch me, I don't want you to talk to me.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I'm telling the staff they're not doing anything. [00:30:00] And I'm not mad about this, because I understand. How people who have dedicated their lives to satanic works and things like that are really under bondage by Lucifer and the, and, and how, how does the Bible say people who, who are of the devil, like they walk in darkness and they don't not, they stumble in the darkness.

De'Vannon Seráphino: They know not what they stumble as a nature of a devil, like their nature, their inherent nature is to like, trip over themselves, be Lucifer, his fallen angels, these dark mages. They all have a way of standing in their own way, just like a narcissist who channels. Unknowingly, or maybe knowingly, a lot of Lucifer's energy I always referenced these days, narcissism, because the spirit has really opened my eyes to how much of the devil's power is really in a narcissist.

De'Vannon Seráphino: It's always like, you're almost looking at the same being almost, but I really feel sorry for them. You would think I'd be all like angry. No, I feel sorry for them. I feel sorry. I have nothing but like empathy for all of these people [00:31:00] trying to cast this magic against me. People have done this to me my whole life, and I know what

De'Vannon Seráphino: the type of torture that they're under. Like being under bondage like that, because Lucifer don't like them. Lucifer don't like himself, he don't like anybody. So, so he done lie to those mages and trick them into using their connection to the spirit world for him. But they could have, I guess, gone and used it for God, I don't know where they got their power from to begin with.

De'Vannon Seráphino: So I say that loosely, maybe they could have used it for God, maybe they started out with the devil, I don't know. But I know what happens to people when they try to fight. The prophets of the Most High God, for those of us who are truly filled with the Holy Ghost, it don't ever end good for them. And and I really, really feel sorry for them because the devil basically just throws them to the, to the, to the sacrifice in a way because he knows they go incur God's wrath for this.

De'Vannon Seráphino: He knows it. He doesn't care. And he also knows that they can't win against [00:32:00] somebody who's actually called. And he also doesn't care because the devil don't care. He's out of options. He's out of, he can't do anything. He can't go back to heaven like he wants to. He's just like a, He's just like a child spinning around in his own mess and just can't get cleaned up and no one will come clean him up and he's just hates everything and everyone like the dude is like out of like his mind and so but but but he will come and present to you like he has solutions and things like that and the devil can't do nothing to help himself baby he can't help you.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And so what happened, you see, like, the club was about to close, and what they had tried to do to me all night didn't work. The Holy Ghost had just simply dismissed all the, all that evil witchcraft that they were trying to cast against me. Thank you, Holy Ghost. The evil witchcraft they were trying to cast against me, child.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And, and so they sent this female because they [00:33:00] had, they sent a male to try to touch me like that. Then they would think that there could have been a fight, but I will never reduce myself to fighting. Lightworkers, and children of the most high God. If anybody ever get in your face, you keep your decorum, you keep your class and you keep, you keep, you keep the upper hand.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Don't you let nobody. shift your energy. I'm sitting over here vibing, dancing letting God use me or whatever. And now I got this witch in my face trying to get me out of my character oh no ma'am. It's not gonna happen that way. I kept it classy when the staff at the factory wasn't gonna do anything.

De'Vannon Seráphino: I just got my things and left. I had done what I went there to do anyway. God already had his victory. It's a moot point to try to stay there. And I don't have to. There's always another club in New York City, baby. There's always another option. I don't care where you live at. You always have another option.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Even if that's going home, putting your music on. You'll never have to be nowhere, supporting nobody's establishment. If they won't respect you, leave. [00:34:00] So, but fighting, no, you don't let anybody get you out of your character because then that's you giving them control over you. They want to fight. I have no desire to fight these people.

De'Vannon Seráphino: That's their desire. I don't want to fight. I'm doing it because I got to. Because I got, because I got to do the work of the Lord is more like, let's be quickly push these people out the way. But I have to, you have to learn how to fight the devil and yet do God's work at the same time, but you can't let them distract you.

De'Vannon Seráphino: So lightworkers children of the most tie God out there. Don't you get into no arguments with these people. Don't you come to blows with these people. You keep yourself together. They want to fall apart and act a fool. And be angry. Let them. Because that is what the devil is. He's always mad. But how that song they used to say growing up in church.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Ain't nobody mad but the devil. Ain't nobody mad but the devil. Us over here in Yahweh's camp chilling. We marinating. We having a good time. Going from glory to glory and [00:35:00] strength to strength. Happy, colorful, vibrant, vibing. That's how it is in Jesus's camp. The devil don't have that. Not at all. Not at all he don't.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Though he wishes he does. But he shall never have it again because he had all that. And then he got in his own way and let it go. Okay, but they knew had they sent like a male, or they were thinking like, like, like, like a fight could have happened, but they know that there's no way that a man can fight a woman.

De'Vannon Seráphino: It doesn't matter what she's done, and she could be dead wrong. It's like this girl, this gal was, it doesn't matter if a dude does anything to a female, we're automatically guilty. And that's just the way the system is set up. And so, And so, and so I just left. That's not a defeat, and it's not See, you gotta be over yourself, you can't get in your ego, and be like, nobody's gonna make me leave.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Nobody makes made made me do anything. I chose to take the high ground and just go, [00:36:00] because I'm not gonna stand there and let somebody fondle me. Or feel on me, cause that's weird, and like, strange, and whatever. and I mean, this was done publicly in front of everybody at the club. So it's not like there's people who can't testify to what I'm saying, which is the, the interesting thing.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And see they started the whole night out with this. When I got there, 3:00 AM the mages was there and ready to go, child. And they tried to come at me like they did it nowadays. And I, the spirit did what she did and, and, and rose up within me and overthrew them. And I got slayed in the spirit child. See God is God everywhere.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Nowadays, the factory, the train, my house, your house, Walmart, Target, don't matter. The runway, 42nd Street, God is God everywhere. It does not matter. It does not matter. And so they woke me up at the factory saying this happens [00:37:00] again, we're going to have to put you out. And these dark mages backed off because they did not want to actually get me thrown out like they did it nowadays.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And so. So they didn't come at me with those same tactics or that exact same tactic throughout the night. And you see the worker at the factory is just looking at it like this dude is passed out on the floor. He don't know what's happening. He don't want no drama. I don't judge him for that. But see over it nowadays, you've got like these witches and these dark mages, like on staff there.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Some of them are, but it's like, it's freedom of religion. And so it's not like you can. Discriminate against somebody for whatever their religion is and witchcraft is technically a religion the way it's classified So you cannot really not hire a witch or fire a witch if that's what they want to be So it's a trip dude, so you could be on staff somewhere and be somebody who's totally like You got your cross and you're for Jesus, and you're like working next to somebody who's worshipping the [00:38:00]devil, or you could be a patron of a club or a bar, going in to praise Jesus, dancing the Holy Ghost or whatever, and somebody's standing next to you with some sort of cursed object or something like that, calling down high demonic power and things like that.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And this is just the way the world works. It's just the way it is. It's a trip, dude.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And it's like, it wouldn't necessarily be so much of a problem in and of itself, but the Lightworker is going out to worship God, and wherever God shows up, people get blessed and enhanced. A Lightworker don't to have to do nothing but just focus on Jesus and Jesus will show up and just do many things for many people if he wants to.

De'Vannon Seráphino: But the way the devil's people work, they got to like siphon energy from you to sacrifice to the devil to get the devil to move like on their behalf. So they, they do it secretly. They do it seductively. They do it covertly. You cannot look at somebody and tell really if they're a witch or if they're working against you, unless your eyes have been opened by the Holy Ghost.

De'Vannon Seráphino: And so you can't like go tell somebody this witch [00:39:00] is doing this. ' you can't prove that. Like, it's so, so simple, the little moves they make and stuff like that. But the problem is, they can't do their dark work without trying to get energy from you and stuff like that. They're working against you and you deserve to be able to go out to the club without having these covens and stuff like that battling you and you don't even know it while they're smiling in your face.

De'Vannon Seráphino: Huh. Pretending to be your friend. Huh. Hmm.

De'Vannon Seráphino: But I'll talk about these things in more detail in episodes and messages to come,
