Authority Of The Believer

Luke 10:19 -- "Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will injure you."



Genesis 1:26 -- "And God said, Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over ever creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth."…

Blood Bought Rights

Ephesians 2:5,6,10 - "Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace we are saved;) And hath raised us together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in them."



AS A BELIEVER I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO "TRY" FAITH. I EXERCISE MY RIGHTS… Continue

Practical Ways Of Praying For The Lost

A. Ask God to Soften Their Hearts



Ezekiel 11:19 - "And I will give them one heart, and put a new spirit within them. And I will take the heart of stone out of their flesh and give them a heart of flesh..."

Pray for the condition of their hearts to change.



B. Spirit of Conviction

Ask for the release of the spirit of conviction of sin, righteousness, and judgment to come.



John 16:8 - "And He,…

Bringing Forth The Son Of God

Luke 1:28 -- "And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favored, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women."



Ephesians 1:6 -- "To the praise of the glory of His grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved."




The word "freely given" or "accepted" in Ephesians 1:6 (the Greek word - Charitoo) is the same word used for "highly favored" in Luke 1:28.



Mary was the one person…

Sitting At The Feet Of The King

1 Peter 2:9 -- "For you have been chosen by God Himself -- you are priests of the King, you are holy and pure, you are God's very own -- all this so that you may show to others how God called you out of the darkness into His wonderful light."



We know we are a priesthood, chosen by God, possessed by God, holy like God and royal to God. We have immediate access to Him and we don't need a human priest as a mediator because our…

Believing Like Jesus

1 Corinthians 3:16 - Do you not know that you are a temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?



The holiness we are seeking is not a legislative or legalistic set of rules; it is Christ's very own quality of life. The Holy Spirit works in us not merely a new desire to love, but He imparts to us Christ's very own love.



We develop more than just a general faith in Jesus; we actually begin believing like Jesus, with His quality of…

Seeing The Unseen

2 Corinthians 4:18 -- "While we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal."



We have two sets of ears and two sets of eyes. We have the natural set that we are born with, and we have a spiritual set, that is activated when we are born again.

As we grow spiritually, we begin to see with our spiritual…

Breaking Out Of The Box

Luke 8:14 -- "The seed among the thorns represents those who listen and believe God's words but whose faith afterwards is choked out by worry and riches and the responsibilities and pleasures of life. And so they are never able to help anyone else to believe the Good News."



Your enemy wants to subdue your awareness and release a slumbering spirit. In this state he can sell you on giving in to a comfortable life thereby causing a…

Believing For The Impossible

Acts 3:6,7 - But Peter said, Silver and gold I do not have; but what I do have, that I give to you: in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk! Then he took hold of the man's right hand with a firm grip and raised him up. And at once his feet and ankle bones became strong and steady.



Part of our problem is this: we are accustomed only to doing things for God that are not impossible. If God doesn't… Continue

Listening To God

As Christians, we need to spend more time listening to God than anything else. When we do hear the Lord, creative power and life flow through His words.

Every word God speaks is creative.



Psalm 107:20 -- "He sent His Word and He Healed them."



One of the most crucial areas in which believers fall short in is pressing into God. Many pray briefly about decisions, then merely do what seems like common sense, not acquiring the…

Extreme Christianity

Acts 26:24,25 -- Now as he thus made his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, "Paul, you are beside yourself! Much learning is driving you MAD! But He (Paul) said, "I am not MAD, most noble Festus, but speak the word of truth and reason."



The words 'beside yourself' mean to rave as a maniac, and it's the idea of incessant craving. Festus accused Paul of being crazy.



Modern culture is not drawn to Christianity because the…

Separation

Romans 1:1 - "Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ called to be an apostle, separated unto the Gospel of God."



Many are called, but we are never separated. That separation is a threefold thing:



First: The New Creation separates us from the old life.



Second: As the Word is built into us, we are separated unto Christ.…

Being In Tune With The Spirit

1 Corinthians 2:16 - "For who has known or understood the mind (the counsels and purposes) of the Lord so as to guide and instruct Him and give Him knowledge? But we have the mind of Christ, the Messiah, and do hold the thoughts (feelings and purposes) of His heart."



Affirmations



GOD WANTS ME TO BE SO IN TUNE WITH HIS SPIRIT THAT I AM…

Hearing God Through Peace

Colossians 3:15 - 'Let the peace of God rule in your heart...'



A very fundamental way God speaks to individual believers is through His peace. Too often we take the peace of God for granted. God's peace is that eternal tranquilizer that governs our being.



Romans 5:1 -- 'Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace WITH GOD through our Lord Jesus Christ.'



Ephesians 2:13,14 -- 'But now in…

Confident Expectation

Proverbs 13:12 -- Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when dreams come true, there is life and joy.



Without God hope is reduced to the powerless level of fate.



While life can take people from hope to disappointment the God of hope leads people in the other direction.



No matter what the circumstances look like for you, the heart of God is that your dreams will come true.…

Foundational Prayer - Destiny Awaits

Psalm 91:1 -- "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the almighty."



Jesus lived a life of of prayer, and when He needed dedicated prayer time He would send crowds and, most likely, potential resources away so that He could be with the Father. As a result He would not move, speak, or do anything that the Father did not ask Him to do.



Our talking and listening to the Father…

Being Spiritually Healthy and Yielding Fruit

Psalm 1:3 - And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.



Observation

WATER IS USED AS A SYMBOL OF THE WORD OF GOD. THE TREE IS "PLANTED BY STREAMS OF WATER". IT IS HEALTHY AND YIELDS FRUIT BECAUSE IT IS NEAR THE WATER AND CAN DRAW THE WATER BY ITS…

Pulling Virtue Out Of The Holy Spirit

Psalm 5:3 -- "In the morning, O Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation."



Hearing from God is living with expectation toward Him because expectation places a demand on the Holy Spirit. We should live with expectation toward God twenty-four hours a day, for He abides within us at all times.



God does talk. He is speaking continually. Christians need to develop their receivers (their human…

The Greatest Power

1 Corinthians 13:13 -- So faith, hope love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.



The power of love is the greatest power in the universe. It's beyond defeat. It never fails (1 Corinthians 13:8).

When you release love into a situation, you have released God into it. When you release love into a situation, Jesus becomes responsible for it's success.



Mark 12:30,31 -- "You shall love the Lord…

SUNDAY SCHOOL - July 11, 2021

John 8:39 - "They answered and said to Him, 'Abraham is our father.' Jesus said to them, 'If you are Abraham's children, do the deeds of Abraham.'"Abraham was an alien and a stranger on the earth. The goal of his life was to have a place in what God…Continue
