As it says in 2 Corinthians 5:7, we walk by faith not by sight. Pastor encourages us to reach for a higher realm as we use the faith we already have. As we use our faith, our faith will grow.
We are flawed people, but God uses flawed people. To walk in complete liberty use Jesus’ name for everything you do, and walk in Jesus’ delegated authority and power.
Good behavior is always rewarded–maybe not immediately. Choices (whether good or bad) will determine your life.
To be saved is a choice – the most important one of your life. My Word says, “Choose this day whom you will serve.”
It is a mystery why some will choose the wrong path, when the right choice seems so obvious. There are always consequences to all that you do.
When you are unsure of which direction to go – wait. Stop moving. Sometimes (most of the time) the answer will come if you wait.
Don’t worry about details that you cannot control. Pray and trust Me for direction. I love you and will never leave you: Nothing is impossible to those who have faith. Believe and know that I will do all I’ve promised. My promises are for you.
“And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force” (Matthew 11:12 NKJV).
We do not war according to the flesh, and we do not war against flesh and blood. Our weapons are supernatural, and so is our enemy. If we want to see the world changed for the Lord Jesus Christ, we need to get violent. Violent against the enemy, the devil.
Light.
Nothing can grow without it. It reveals things that darkness hides. When a seed is placed in the dark earth, it grows to reach the light above it.
Becoming born again is stepping out of the darkness into His marvelous Light. It means nothing hidden. Lies and deception hide in dark, but truth and love live in the Light. Decide to live in the Light where all things grow.
My Word is truth. It will bring Light and revelation, and faith grows there. All life will be drawn to the Light. Wisdom is constant when revelation comes. My Word will be as a seed that when cared for will grow strong. Plant it in your heart and fill your mind with it. Soon things that were not clear will be revealed to you.
Walk in the Light; don’t stumble in the dark.
Guest speaker Mark Linder uses 2 Timothy 1:7 to expound on confronting and dealing with fear and rising up as Christians. Once you understand your identity in Jesus, you can quit pretending to be somebody else.
When we believe the lie, we empower the liar. When we believe the Truth, we empower the Living God to flow through us with His Holy Spirit and start delivering the oppressed and the captives. Fear is not from God. Jesus came to deliver you from that spirit of fear.
God placed enmity between Satan’s seed and Eve’s seed, but just what is Satan’s seed?
Jesus crushed the head of Satan at Calvary; He destroyed hell and the grave and removed the sting of death. He took the keys to the kingdom of heaven and gave them to the Church. In so doing this, He crushed the head of Satan. This was accomplished in Genesis 3:15.
Pastor Bill Grace talks about the ministry of the Holy Spirit and allowing God to move as He chooses in our lives and in our churches.
Jesus became man and came to Earth. He operated by the Holy Spirit the same way we do. Everything we walk through, Jesus has already walked there.
There is victory in the Father, the Holy Spirit, and in Himself. Deity came down to us!
Lord, please bring out to the open what is hidden in secret.
Reveal that we all sin and so need a Savior.
Cover us with Your grace when our human frailty falls so short of all You’ve planned for us.
Let truth abound in this nation, in our cities, and in our homes.
May families give up their busyness and focus on loving those near to them.
Holy Spirit bring to our minds all we need to repent of, every detail. Nothing will hinder us from running into our Father’s arms. That the greatest of all loves might be embraced.
Heaven controls everything, and Christ has given believers the keys to heaven: to bind and to loose.
By our faith our words establish heaven here on earth. He’s given us the keys to heaven that the gospel might be preached and people will be saved.
