Listen

When God speaks it is important to listen. Do not neglect so great a salvation as you have been given. It's not always out right rebellion that will send us in the wrong direction, but simply neglecting to seek, to wait, and to listen. God is speaking. God is correcting. God is merciful and patient. Take the grace that He is offering. Sit, submit, and listen. 

Trusting God vs Trusting Self

Most people know that they can trust God. The hard thing to learn is that you can't trust yourself so that your trust in Him will take priority to what you think or feel in the moment. 

Ten Shekels a Year

Lessons from the Old Testament are invaluable for our understanding as we journey on toward promise. Today we look at the story of a priest and how his wrong thinking of his calling cost him his right standing so that we can make sure that we do not fall guilty of it ourselves, and pray for those who have.

God is Serious

A serious warning of the pattern of warnings and judgments that God gives to a person, a church, or a nation before it is finally overtaken. Yet even in the end, to be left completely defenseless for a moment is a mercy if it shows you that you don't want to be left without the presence and protection of God for eternity. There is a serious humbling coming to those who don't take God serious. Heed the warning, repent, and get into position at the feet of Jesus. There is protection in His presence.

A message delivered by Marandia Wright at the Cottonport women’s correctional Facility on uncovering and overcoming the lies of the enemy that are killing your faith and keeping you from getting the spiritual breakthrough that you so desperately desire.
 

Holiness, Unity, and Blasphemy

The Lord gave me a very serious prophetic word and warning to the church about the judgment that He is about to unleash on the revival killers. There are many who are guilty of robbing the womb of revival and God, in His great mercy is giving space for repentance before He steps in and deals with it. This is a very serious message and mercy from the Holy Spirit with clear graphic descriptions of how God views what has been happening to His anointed remnant and the messages that He has given them to carry forth. He releases truth, but then come those who take it away with their vain babbling and imaginations. The true prophets are weary in well doing and the fakes or glorying in their crimes and God says that it’s time for judgment to begin at the House of God. 
 
The audio recording malfunctioned so the only recording we had was an open-air recording from a congregant. So the audio quality isn’t the greatest and I’m sorry for that, but I think the warning is serious enough to post even in low quality for those that feel led to listen, the content is what’s important. 

Examine Your Faith

The enemy is a liar. Self has very limited perspective and is easily deceived by it's senses. God is faithful, all knowing, all seeing; full of wisdom and compassion! He knows the end from the beginning! So which are you putting your faith in? If you are swaying, falling, straying, uncertain, confused, confounded, discouraged, or shaken; it is because you have begun to put your faith in the wrong thing. Take some time to sit with Jesus and ask Him to help you examine where your faith is and refocus it.

Is Christ at Home in Your Heart?

A look at our hearts to see if we make a place for Christ in our life and invite Him to come and make us His dwelling. 

Looking Out for the Family

God's desire is to redeem as many into His family as He can and He has commissioned us to help Him do it! Let us do it with vigor and lookout for each other as we do the work of the kingdom to the best of our ability!

A Proven Power

God does not owe us anything. He does not have to prove Himself to men.  Yet He did, through Jesus, and still does, through us. What a demonstration of grace, mercy, and love. His power is proven!

Why the Truth Matters

The culture tries to tell you that truth is abstract and that we can each have our own version of it. That is simply not true, it is a lie meant to damn you to hell with the father of all lies and those who have fallen to the pride that you can be your own God and determine for yourself, what is right. The truth matters and believing it and breaking agreement with the error of the enemy will determine your eternity. That's why Jesus paid the highest price to give the truth to us. Let us not take that sacrifice for granted. Let us put our faith in the truth and the one who brought it to us. 

No Respecter of Persons

We read many times in scripture, that God is no respecter of persons. We need to understand what that means and take it very seriously. He will honor His promises. He will do what He says. No one can escape His righteous judgements. Yet likewise, no one is out of the reach of His love. Believe what He says and put your trust in it, there is a judgment for the rebellious and redemption for the repentant. It doesn't matter who you are or what you've done, for God is no respecter of persons. 

New Focus

Lord give us new vision, clarify the mission, and not deviate to the left or to the right from the destination and purpose that You have placed before us. The promise still stands, help us to see it again, as well as the path to pursue it with single minded determination! Bring it all back into focus! In the Mighty Name of Jesus!

Whatever It Takes

Whatever it takes to surrender to God. Whatever it takes to leave the world behind. Whatever it takes to be a servant at heart. Whatever it takes to pick up your cross and follow Jesus. Whatever it takes, it's more than worth it. 

The Doctrine of the Nicolaitans

A look into one of the doctrines found in the churches in the book of Revelations that Jesus said that he hated, so we can be sure that we never become guilty of something that Jesus so completely disapproves of as this.  

A Ministry of Humility and Power

A look at one of those most humble, yet powerful ministries in scripture, the ministry of John the Baptizer. May we learn and aspire to something higher than what the world tells us that our faith should look like. God's ways are not our ways. They are better!

Personal Responsibility

There are many things that only God can do, yet there are a few things in scripture that He very clearly tells us to do. He lays a personal responsibly on each of us to take a step of faith and show ourselves a bride that loves her groom enough to prepare herself for His coming. Today we take a look at these personal responsibilities in scripture that no one else can do for us and ask God for the grace to tend to them with all due diligence.    

The Process

Our life of faith is a journey.  Yes there is a starting point and there is a destination, and a preparation for that destination! Therefore, there is a process that God takes us through as we progress in that preparation. Things that might seem pointless, do have a purpose far beyond our imagining, because the journey will take us far beyond our seeing or current comprehension. Season change, but His faithfulness remains the same. keep trusting. Keep going. 

Partaking in Christ Rewards

Grabbing hold of the reality that we have been given the opportunity to partake in Christ's rewards in eternity. That what Christ did and is still doing, we can be rewarded for, if we allow Him to abide in our heart and use our lives to continue His work! 

Ministry of Helps

A look at one of the most needed, most overlooked, and most rewarding callings mentioned in scripture.

Two or Three

Scripture gives us instructions for evangelism, prayer, prophecy, and all manner of ministry. It is good to look at the advise that scripture gives us so that we can be as effective as possible as we lean on God's great wisdom and not our own ability or understanding. 

Assignments

A look in scripture at the life of Jesus and the Apostles to see what ministry really looks like. The importance of the individual assignments and of seeing them through to completion. It is interesting what Jesus consider to be the success of His earthly ministry. 

More Like Jesus

A prayer to be more like our Jesus. More humble, more faithful, more selfless, more focused, more attentive, more passionate, more compassionate, more like Jesus.

Equipping in the Stripping II: The Wilderness

Continuing from our previous message where we looked more at the purpose of purification that the Holy Spirit came to lead us through, today we look a little father into the process by which He does it and what we have to gain by enduring it in faith!

Equipping in the Stripping: The Winnowing

A look at the purpose and process of receiving and being lead by the Holy Spirit according to scripture. What to expect and why...
