All across the world, in many true churches, the story of the death, burial and resurrection will once again be held high as the core of the gospel, the intentions and plan of God for mankind, and the pouring forth of this grace abundantly. But what of our reaction, our response. It says in (Matthew) that when the disciples saw the resurrected Christ they worshipped him, but some doubted; so it is today. Some walk closely, some at a distance. Some love deeply, some have grown cold. Some cannot live without him, others have turned away having loved this present world. The sermon should either CONFIRM or CONVICT US; but either way, may God's spirit rest upon it in power drawing us ever closer to the one who gave his life for us.

Last week as Pastor Jason preached upon the subject of "Suit up" as it pertains to being prepared for raging war and relentless battle, I was stirred in my own heart with some things that i think will affirm and bolster those things that he shared, making us double down on all that it means to be prepared to stand in the evil day and having done all to stand.

Join us as we look at what scripture says about preparing for battle with the enemy through putting on the whole armor of God.

There is much unnecessary confusion as it pertains to the difference between the sealing of the believer with the Holy Spirit for identification and the Baptism of the Holy Spirit for power. The same goes with the supernatural GIFT of tongues for the edification of the church (when accompanied by interpretation) and the supernatural ability to SPEAK with tongues for the edification of the believer. This beautiful, divine, powerful, personal expression is not only scriptural but available to all who desire and receive the fullness of the Holy Spirit.

We continue our unplanned messages on the Holy Spirit, and will address the beauty, significance and joy of the Revival fires that are spreading across our land. To see this again after so many years, to know God has not altogether forsaken our nation and to see the power of the Holy Spirit is a beautiful and treasured thing. Join us as we examine the why of revival, the how and how to discern between the genuine and the imposter. May God take us from being eye witnesses on line, to those who encounter Him in person.

We have already studied about... 1). The indwelling of the Holy Spirit. 2). The empowerment of the Holy Spirit. 3). And today we will look at the many, specific, divine and unmistakable ways that the Holy Spirit helps us.

Not the earnest of the spirit (which was given to us at New Birth) but the fullness of the Spirit given to us by the Resurrected Christ. As believers in the terminal generation we have no greater need (this side of the cross and in this last hour) than to be baptized in the Holy Spirit and to walk and live in the fulness thereof. May we heed the call, accept the invitation and by faith recieve that which only Christ can give; The baptism of the Holy Spirit and Fire.

A call to Christ. A call to live out the call. A call to not overlook those that Christ died for.

Few things are more valuable to the believer (who already walks closely with the Lord) than to have clarity of mind and soul and the discernment of the Holy Spirit active and esteemed in his life. This discernment is designed as a defense and weapon for the believer and can be relied upon to avoid the tricks, traps and snares of the enemy. If you have it then you know; if you don't - you soon will, for the year to come will reveal it.

With all that happened in 2022, and the continual drift into godlessness, chaos, insanity and deception; there are things that the believer MUST be prepared for and prepared with.As we go forward, we go with eyes open and lifted voices. We go forward with clean hands and healthy souls, With divine ableness and weaponry. With the Word of God hidden in our heart, on our lips and in our hand (sword). Forward with a unashamed reliance upon God and an undeterred expectancy of God.

Today we will ask ourselves the questions Do I? and Will I? Do I believe Jesus, and Will I believe Jesus? Do I want Jesus, and Will I want Jesus? Do I follow Jesus, and Will I follow Jesus? The question shifts from "Do I?" to "Will I?" as our commitment to believe, want, and follow become problematic. Be encouraged as we prepare to stand for Christ by asking ourselves honest questions.

Christmas is the season in which we rehearse again the birth of the lamb of God who was to take away the sin of the world. But the story does not end there; it also covers how people responded to him. From the innkeeper who ignored him as insignificant, Herod who hated the very idea of him, The Shepherds who immediately responded to heavens voice, And the wise men who followed God's leading all the way to Christ....opening their treasures and their souls in the pure worship of him.

This is not your typical message on WHY you should be thankful, but instead on why you should BE thankful. Thankfulness is not a fruit of the Holy Spirit, but a decision of the human will; it is a determined, purposeful, decision to act upon our awareness of what God has done for us. So many people seek experiences under the hands of other people, when there are very few things that will ever happen in your christian life that carry the power or weight of BEING a thankful person. May God quicken this word to our heart, knit it to the fabric of our soul, conforming us closer and closer to the image of Jesus Christ.

The bible teaches us in (James 4:14) that our life is just like a vapor that appeareth for a little while, and then vanisheth away." If we are only here for a little while, why do we act as if it will be a long while? May God brand this phrase "a little while" on the inside of our eyelids that we may never forget the brevity of our life and the certainty of our standing before Him whose eyes are a flame of fire to give an account for it. If we truly lived in the light of eternity, i wonder how different, powerful, fruitful and enjoyable our day to day lives would be?

Why is it that soldiers find comfort in the consolation of other soldiers, new mamas look to those who have successfully raised their babies, and other believers look to those who have remained faithful? It is because they have travelled the same paths, had similar if not the same experiences, and their stories of how Christ preserved them and the advice that they might give are like water to the parched soul.
