WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO HAVE AN APPOINTMENT WITH DESTINY?
Before I answer that question, let's take a review of the nature of our creator and examine some of his creative ways. After all, we are talking about a god of detail and precision that has created the most amazing piece of work ever imagined.
Of course that's you and me who David said we were fearfully and wonderfully made.
Then take a snapshot of Jesus as he moves through his brief visitation to earth representing God himself. Remember everything he did was a reflection of what the father was doing. And every attitude that he had toward people was the exact image of his heavenly father.
For example, when he fed the 5000 which in all reality was about 25,000. And he did it with a few fish and some loaves of bread. Jesus was so detailed that he ordered his disciples to collect what was left over.
Think about the nature of the father after supplying food for 25,000 people to be concerned about 12 basket fulls at the end of all that miraculous multiplication of food. Our God never misses a lick. He's the original detail person. He always has a plan.
So here's the question. Do you think God has a plan for you when he created and sent you to your earthly home? I do. Because it's his nature he's a detail planner.
Check out Hebrews 12 and the first verse today. And as we do this, ask some questions of our heavenly father about our destiny. After all, he said that if we would ask, he would answer and give us the wisdom that we need for the moment and for the days ahead..
Hebrews 12:1 gives us the secret of actually finishing our race toward our intended goal or destiny that God is already designed for us.
That gives us hope that we can actually fulfill the will of God while on earth.

WHY DID GOD GIVE US NEW DAYS, YEARS, AND SEASONS? There is a repeated phrase in the King James Bible that always caught my attention when I came across it. It was the statement, “and it came to pass.” If there ever was a description of the passing of time, it would be that statement. Here it comes, and there it went.After you've lived a few years, you realize how quickly the year goes by, and here we are wishing you a happy new year for 2026. You may have forgotten that it's only been 26 years since the end of the world according to the doomsday crowd at the turn of the new year of 2000. It was going to be all over, according to the world press, the collapse of the computer system, and of course, the church got involved and twisted the scriptures for their theories.Why did God give us a new year?The same reason he's given us days and seasons is that He's a God of the second chance.It's like resetting your clock to the correct time after the battery runs out. He created us in the same way that we need to have a restart on a regular basis.As a child, my mother often told me to go to bed so I would feel better in the morning.I usually did. Recharged with a fresh vision for the day.So it is with a new year. He is the God of the second chance. That's why we are prone to come up with New Year's resolutions. We realized the weaknesses and failures of the last year, and now we have a chance to make it right in this new year.Unfortunately, without the Holy Spirit's help, most of those New Year's resolutions fall away very quickly. It's only when we depend on the power of Christ who lives within and the wisdom of the Holy Spirit to guide us into new days and a new year that we succeed.This new year holds every wonderful possibility that God ever offered to you and me through faith and obedience. Take the chance you didn't take last year and believe God for the impossible.You'll be amazed at what develops in this brand new year.

WHEN YOUR SPIRIT RETURNS TO THE FATHER, WILL YOU BE DAVIDIZED AND HAVE THE JESUS MINDSET?
Now, there's a new word for your vocabulary. Davidized! You'll find the meaning of my new word in Acts 13:36, the scripture tells us that David fulfilled all the purposes of God in his generation. So there you go. What are the purposes of God for you and me so that when our spirit returns to our father, we will have completed our mission in victory?
I find it unusual that so many Christian believers who love Jesus with all their hearts feel intimidated to compare themselves with Jesus. The Scriptures clearly tell us that he is not only our elder brother, but He is the pattern Son.
This is what the apostle Paul meant when he told those he was mentoring to follow him as he followed Christ. The pattern is always Christ, yet we are hesitant to compare ourselves to Christ. We're stuck in limbo.
Look what it means to have the Jesus mindset.
Jesus said he could do nothing by himself without the Father's approval and direction. John 12:49.
He was also clear that he did all of this to please his father. John 8:29.
And in Philippians 2:8, the scriptures tell us that he became obedient to the Father's will and went to the cross.
Note this: his obedience was not mechanical but relational. It was not coerced but given freely.
To have the mind of Christ is to have those attributes in your lifestyle: humility, obedience, and the passion to please the Father.
How do we obtain this lifestyle of the Jesus mindset? By absorbing the life and nature of our father through his word and spirit. We do that by receiving and believing what we hear from the Holy Spirit as we meditate upon his living word.
Dare I say that you could say the same of us as they did of Jesus?
The Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld his glory as of the only begotten Son of the Father. We are not Jesus, the savior. However, we are a son and daughter in his likeness and favored of God, the father.

THE PARABLE CROWD-THOSE UNABLE TO RECEIVE DIVINE REVELATION Have you ever asked yourself why it is that when the word of God comes forth, one person gets it and the one sitting right next to him walks away, shaking his head?The disciples of Jesus in Matthew 1310 ask the same question, so you are not alone. The answer that Jesus gave gives us a clear pathway for you and me to be among those who hear and believe.Most of us, with all of our hearts, want to hear and see the things of God. But often, without even knowing it, because of preconceived ideas or false teaching, we have shut our eyes and ears to the revelation of heaven.Take a snapshot of Nicodemus, the teacher of the law who came to Jesus at night because he was ashamed to be seen with this controversial teacher.In John 3, Jesus challenges Nicodemus with this statement: "How is it that you are a very respected teacher of the law and don't know the spiritual principles I'm trying to teach you?"Here's an interesting key that Jesus gave Nicodemus at that time, which would be good for you and me to remember in our learning about the heavenly things.The natural first, then the spiritual.Jesus said to Nicodemus, " If you are not able to believe what I told you about the natural realm, what will you do when I begin to unveil the heavenly realm?All of us start by listening to God's teaching in the parable crowd. The apostle Paul said that even nature speaks of God. So each of us can hear the message of heaven through what God has created all around us.The tragedy comes when that's all we believe, and never go past that by opening our eyes and her ears to see spiritual things.Open your eyes that you may see my friend and let God amaze you.

WHAT'S NOT THERE? THEN IT'S THERE. THE POWER TO BELIEVE! We've all been there at some point or another in our journey through life and its joys. You know. In the dumps, a place we can't see out of and have no idea how to find the answer.How did we ever make it through that dark time? And here we stand, happy and full of joy today. It's a mystery to many how they make it through. You and I know, because of our Bible knowledge, that the angels of the Lord work with us, bringing us hope and a word from the Father that we don't hear with our natural ears, but we hear with our spirit.Have you ever heard the old slogan? A stitch in time saves nine. The point being, if you take care of something ahead of time, it won't be destroyed or fall apart.Don't you suppose God knows that principle and knows how to work it into our daily life? I do. It's in those desperate times that we need a word from God.One word from the Holy Spirit can change the day and the course of our lives forever. Peter heard one word from Jesus and walked on the water. The lame man beside the pool heard seven words from Jesus and walked after 38 years of bondage.It's no wonder the scriptures tell us to meditate upon the word day and night. This is why we are to fill our minds and souls with His Word so that it will saturate our spirits with the knowledge of God's voice and his word.We could use a new phrase in our lives: a word from God in time saves a life. That may not rhyme, but it certainly has heavenly dynamics behind it.When the dark clouds roll in, and it seems like you can't see past the problem. Take time to listen and get that word from the Holy Ghost. Remember God is faithful and he will not allow you to miss your destiny and your purpose if you'll listen to his voice and obey it.

THIS IS YOUR HOUSE-YOUR RULES In my history of traveling the world for the last seven decades, I've stayed in hundreds of different hotels, motels, and rented houses. All of those have a special thing in common. I don't own those. I'm just borrowing them for a short season and before I go into those dwelling places, I make a commitment to take care of them. Then I usually leave a deposit to guarantee my actions.It seems to be a common practice to hear the teachings of the scriptures concerning our spiritual walk, shaking our head in agreement, then not doing it.That would be what Paul describes as a double minded person. When you hear the word of God and don't do it..So is with this great revelation that God himself dwells in us by the Holy Spirit power. We sing about it and even shout about it in our church services yet we do not live like the Holy Spirit and God himself in our bodies.In first Corinthians 6, Paul is dealing with some in the Corinthian church that were visiting the prostitutes and sleeping with them. He tells them don't you know that when you sleep with a prostitute, you become one with them and them also become one with you.Paul goes on to say it's a proven fact that when that happens, the two become a single body. P/bThen inverse 19 he declares that we are the sacred temple of the Holy Spirit and we are not our own. We have been bought with Price therefore glorify God in your body.Wow! Think about it for a moment. The God of the universe has chosen to dwell in his most valuable creation you and I through the power of the Holy Spirit.

FAITH IS NEVER THE ABSENCE OF DOUBTS
Faith is consistently demonstrated in a persistent trust in the fathers promises, causing us to press through the prevailing doubts that confront us. Faith is that mysterious ingredient buried in the word of God that, as we feast on that word, it becomes a part of our deep fiber.
Check out Hebrews 11:6; without faith, it is impossible to please God, for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and he is the rewarder of those who diligently seek him.
Think about the faithfulness of our creator for just a moment. He requires the substance, or, if you will, the action of what is called faith. In simple terms, faith is an action verb. When you have it and exercise it, you act upon what you believe.
If God our Father does require faith before we can encounter and fellowship with him, then do you suppose he would not supply that faith for us to exercise?
The correct answer here is yes, he would.
The scriptures tell us that every man or woman created by God has been given a measure of faith. So there you go, he's put faith within our framework. It's built-in, ready to go to work as soon as it's stirred up and brought by the word of God.
Unbelief and doubt will keep you out of your promise if you don't exercise and use the God-given faith that he has planted deep within your spirit.
According to Romans 10:9 and 10, the faith that is in us is ignited into action when the word of God is preached. The dynamics of our faith then become evident as we speak it forth into reality.
Jesus gave us example after example of speaking faith out of our spirits and watching the natural world around us change.
He told us to say, "To the mountain, be removed, and cast into the sea."
He spoke to the tree, telling it to dry up and die because it was not bearing fruit.
Let the word of God stir your faith today, despite doubts or fears or unbelief. And with the faith that God has given you, march through the resistance of unbelief to victory.

THE SIMPLICITY OF THE GOSPEL THAT WE ARE CALLED TO
The message of the coming Christ contained in the gospel is so simple to understand that even a child can receive and believe. The gospel that we love so well is the story of the promised Messiah, which we know to be Jesus Christ.
The Old Testament Saints and the prophets did not have the details, even though they spoke of his coming. When we look back at the prophecies of King David, it all makes sense to us because we have the revelation of who Jesus Christ is. Yet David and the other prophets who spoke of him spoke by faith that God was true and faithful to perform his promise.
In the age we live in, the gospel has taken on extra baggage in the form of theology and church doctrine that add nothing of importance to the most important message the world will ever know. Which is that Jesus did come, but why did he come, and what is the benefit of his coming?
When Paul began to lay out his revelation of Jesus Christ in the book of Romans, in the first chapter, second verse, he made this comment. My commission is to preach the good news.
Think about that for a moment, the gospel is good news. Jesus Christ came to set us free from the bondage of sin and death. And by his sacrifice on the cross and the witness of his resurrection from the dead. He proved that he was and is the Christ.
He sealed the deal between man and God by taking his blood to the throne room in his ascension to the Father. When he did that, he took us with him, and now we are seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. (EPH 2:6)
The gospel of Jesus Christ gave us a new address, a place of abode where our Father dwells.

THE NAME OF THE LORD IS A STRONG TOWER
The scriptures tell us that there is a name above every other name given in this world. It's that name that we have committed our eternity to. That is the name we have gone into my faith, and when we did, we found the promise to be true: we would receive eternal life.
Scriptures tell us that a good name is rather to be chosen then find Silver.
The reputation and respect that a corporate name or brand name has are the only things that keep a company in business. If the customer loses confidence in the company's name, the company will go out of business.
The Scriptures tell us that if we call upon the name of the Lord, we shall be saved. That Greek word is Zodso, which means saved, healed, delivered, and made whole.
In Proverbs 10:18, we are told that the righteous can run into the name of the Lord and be safe, because it is a strong tower of defense against the enemy. (my paraphrase.)
We can call upon that name in the day of trouble, and when we do, the scriptures promise us that God will rescue us and bring us help.
That name that is above all names will drive the devil out and call the angels in. That will heal the sick and raise the dead. That name is the only defense we need and the only key to eternity that opens the door to salvation.
The one who carries that name was awarded it by his sacrifice on the cross, his ascension to heaven, as he brought his blood, his perfect blood, to the Father to seal the covenant once and for all.
Isaiah 9:6 gives us an idea of what that name includes: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace.
And here's something we need never to forget.
All of this that we have received will never never end.

YOU CAN ONLY WORSHIP AT THE LEVEL OF YOUR REVELATION
At the very center of the subject and the exercise of worship is to understand honor. Because you cannot worship anything or anyone that you don't honor. There are many ways that we honor the Lord, the first being that we obey his word and live by his commandments.
To be true worshipers of God is more than singing with our hands lifted to happy songs or even songs of Thanksgiving and praise. Before that takes place, we become obedient to truth because Jesus is truth itself.
The scriptures tell us in Psalm 100:4 that we enter into the presence of the Lord with praise. We can only praise the Lord when we've had a revelation of who he is and what he has given us through his sacrifice on the cross.
When that revelation comes, and we also see the completion of the covenant when he rose from the dead and took his blood to the Father. It's then that we can have a thankful heart, and with that, true worship is possible.
The scriptures tell us in John 4:24 that God is a Spirit, and that they who worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. We must have a revelation of the truth of who God is and what he has done in us and for us.
You cannot worship God in Spirit and truth without a revelation of the cross and how his sacrifice dealt with sin once and for all, and brought us back to the Father.
As you learn this aspect of the first coming of Christ, you can then begin to comprehend the power of the blood that was taken to the Father when he ascended on high and gave gifts to men. When the Father received the blood that Jesus shed for us, it sealed the deal.
We will never go back to bondage again because once and for all, the price was paid for our deliverance and freedom, and we are now seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.
With that revelation, we can praise the Lord and worship in truth and spirit.

WHY ARE WE NOT ALLOWED TO RECEIVE DIVINE REVELATION?
One of the many verses in the Scriptures that I love concerning this subject is 1 Corinthians 14:6. In this passage, Paul is discussing the gift of tongues, speaking in the heavenly language, in public worship. He goes on to say, How can I encourage and bless you unless I come to you speaking by Revelation, by knowledge, by prophesying, or by teaching.
This is not the place to discuss how we received the canonized scripture called our Bible. At some point around 300 A.D., a group of Christian scholars, referred to as theologians, decided that enough was enough. That's all the revelation we need, so they closed the gate to spiritual revelation..
This short discussion tonight is focused on you and me hearing the voice of God as he reveals the deep and wonderful mysteries that are found in this beautiful Christian life that we have.
If you only know Christ and the Father through reading the pages of the Bible, without knowing the author of those pages, it's simply dead works. When you cultivate an ongoing relationship with the Holy Spirit, who leads us to Christ and the Father, then, when you open the book, it becomes alive with living Revelation.
You can read John 3:16 until your eyes become blurry and you never see beyond the paper and the ink, until the Holy Spirit opens the Revelation of why he came and died on the cross to redeem us back to the Father.
Yes, divine Revelation is for every believer through the power of the Holy Spirit. It is that Revelation that illuminates the kingdom of God and gives us divine insight into how to function within it.
Don't allow anyone to discourage you from seeing past the accepted norms of church, life, or spiritual activity in the world you may be in. There is always something beyond the veil we haven't seen yet.
It comes to us by Divine Revelation.

THE RETURN TO GREATNESS
The Scriptures abound with big visions, dreams, and prophecies of greatness. From the very first statements in the book of Genesis to the last syllables of the book of Revelation, the Holy Spirit lays out God's plan. God's big plan for things so great, wonderful, and magnificent that the human mind cannot comprehend the scope of it.
His first statements concerning the creation of mankind describe his new creation as winners, not losers. God used descriptions such as "subdue" and "conquer" to develop and fill the whole earth with winners just like themselves.
Then came the great lie in the garden concerning the destiny and future of mankind. The deceiving liar convinced Adam and Eve that they were not winners, overcomers, and conquerors. As a matter of fact, your creator has lied to you. He is trying to keep you from knowing the truth, so go ahead and eat of the tree, and you will become wise.
It was at that point that the human race lost its greatness.
The return to our greatness began immediately as the Father instituted sacrifice and the covering of sin so that we might have fellowship, even though it was limited.
Through the centuries, following the prophets who came and went, leaving us a pathway to follow toward the coming of the Christ.
The events that we know so well in the New Testament we're total mysteries even to the prophets as they spoke of the coming Messiah. The apostle Paul tells us that it was a mystery hidden from generation to generation that Christ would die on the cross and rise from the dead for our justification and for our return to the greatness that the Father created us for.
John 14:12 says it this way: he that believes it on me the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go to the Father.
Think about it, dear friends, we have been returned to greatness.

OPEN MY EYES THAT I MAY SEE
Among the many streams of spiritual truth that are woven through the Testaments is that of the ability for men and women to see into a realm that we call the spiritual. The apostle Paul refers to it when he talks about the two worlds, the natural world that we live in, and the spiritual world that God and all the spiritual beings, including angels, that he has created live in.
Scriptures also tell us that the spiritual world, which is referred to as the unseen world, is more real than the natural world. ( 2 COR 4:18)
This is where the message that I am speaking of tonight starts getting pushed back for much of the church because it's so hard to believe that this world we live in is not everything there is.
This is where we live, we see it, we taste it. We walk on the ground and live in our houses. This must be all there is because this is all I can see and touch.
The reality is when you come into Christ, you have become a new creature and now your citizenship is in heaven, which is in the eternal, the unseen, the spiritual.
Scripture tells us in Hebrews 4:14 that we need to exercise our spiritual senses so we would know good from evil or the natural world from the spiritual world.
I invite you to take a journey with me and discover how to see the end of that world that God has prepared for us to spend eternity in, just beyond what we call a veil that keeps our eyes from seeing the other world. There are amazing creatures that God has provided for our benefit.
Hebrews 1:14 says that God has given us angels who will guide and guard us.
There is an Old Testament story I love in 2 Kings 617 concerning Elijah and his servant who were surrounded by the army of the enemy. The servant was fearful for his life while at the same time the old profit was chilling out, just enjoying another fine evening at the campfire.
After the servant, wind, and moaned long enough, the prophet got weary and asked the Lord to open his eyes so he could see the army of angels and the chariots and horses that were there to defend them against their enemy.
When the servant saw the Army of God, just like you and me, when it would happen to us was beyond amazement.
Let this prayer be your prayer: LORD OPEN MY EYES THAT I MAY SEE THE ANGELS THAT MAKE UP GOD'S ARMY ALL AROUND ME.

OUR DESTINY AND GOOD WORKS ARE THE PLANS OF GOD
There is a story that Jesus tells us in the book of Matthew about the master who went on a long trip, but before he left, he gave a certain amount of money to three of his servants.
If you've been in Sunday school very long, you know the story well, but for those who haven't heard it yet, let me recap.
The master of a certain business was taking a long trip, and before he went, he gave three of his servants some Roman talents.
To one servant, he gave $4.5 million in today's value
To the second servant, he gave $1.8 million in today's value
To the third one, he gave $900,000
Keep in mind, one talent was 20 years' wages for the common labor of that day. Not a small sum of money.
As we focus on the story, we realize the master had a destiny planned for these three servants. In other words, he had something good in mind for them.
The outcome of the story is that the two servants with the five talents and the two talents multiplied their gift many times over. But the third one had a problem and buried his valuable 20 years' worth of wages in the ground.
Why did he do that?
Because he didn't understand his master's desire to bless him with such abundance, it would change his life forever.
The Scriptures tell us that man was afraid of his master, so he buried his talent.
Until you get to know the father and how much he loves you and has plans for you for good and not for evil, you will never be able to enjoy the benefits of his gifts and his blessings.
So many Christians, who love Jesus, have no clue how good the Father is to them concerning his plans for their success.
Ephesians 13 tells us that he has blessed us with all spiritual blessings through Christ Jesus in heavenly places.
That's what your destiny is, and it's all already been paid for and set in motion.
Get to know your father and enjoy his gifts and blessings.

RESISTANCE-WHEN? Who? AND HOW?
Revelation from the Lord often comes to me at the strangest times and in peculiar ways. Recently, I was working my way through the Repair of an old clothes dryer, trying to bring it back to life.
When I got to the heating element and checked it out, it had no breaks in it, and the ohm meter said it was good. So I put it together and gave it a test run.
It barely warmed up.
So I did what all up-to-the-minute and hip people do, I dialed up ChatGPT and asked it. That's when the word resistance came up. It seems that as the heating element gets older, it builds up resistance, preventing the electricity from flowing through as it should.
Well, now it's here, the Holy Spirit gives me the inside baseball on the subject of resistance and how, as we become wary and well doing after laboring or walking the Christian walk, we can resist the Holy Spirit without even realizing it.
The Scriptures do give us instructions on whom to resist and what not to resist.
For instance, if we resist the devil, he will flee from us.
You asked, How do I resist the devil?
Nancy Reagan, President Reagan's wife, told us how to resist drugs: say no, and things will change. So it is with the devil, you have the power to resist by saying no, I am not going your way, I'm following Christ.
You say it with authority. You say it with faith. And you stand your ground upon the name of Jesus in the blood of the cross.
We also resist temptation. In Matthew, when we pray what is known as the Lord's prayer, we are asking that we not be led into temptation. According to that direction, I would say that the best way to resist temptation is through prayer.
The scriptures tell us in James 4:6 that God resists the proud.
Here's a tip. Don't become proud. Keep yourself humble before the Lord, and he will smile on you and give you favor.

THE "WHO I AM ANGEL" SPEAKS, ENCOURAGING WORDS
Several years ago, I was introduced to my birthday angel. It happened to be on my birthday month and I called him "my I am angel." This particular angel was sent with me from the Father's heart at my conception. The duty of this specific angel can be found in Job 33:23.
In this verse, Job tells us there is an angel that speaks to us in our night visions as we rest upon our beds. Psalms 139:16 tells us we have a book of life that God has written about us. It's my conviction that the angel that speaks to us reads us out of that book of life, reminding us of who we are and what our purpose is on this earth.
That's why I call him my "I am" angel." When he speaks, it sounds something like this.
I am the righteousness of God in Christ.
I am a son of God.
I am a joint air with Christ in God.
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
I have the fullness of the godhead bodily dwelling in me.
I have eternal life now.
I can do what he says I can do.
I have been invited into the throne room of God.
And so it goes into the night, and I awake refreshed and ready to face a new day in Victory.
If you listen closely and take note, you'll find that your angel is also speaking, encouraging words to you as you rest at night.

HOW TO SET YOUR HEART TO UNDERSTAND
I am often asked how to prepare for spiritual encounters, such as visitations from the Holy Spirit that include revelations from the scriptures, which often involve angelic interaction.
It's not uncommon to hear people say Well, if it happens, it happens. It's all up to God. I understand the reasoning because of the overemphasis that often happens concerning the sovereignty of God. By that, I mean a teaching that puts everything in God's hands and nothing in yours.
The Scriptures are filled with guidance on how to enter into His presence to find answers and gain understanding. Among those scriptures, you'll find instruction to seek the Lord both early and often. We're also instructed to pray with faith that he will answer us.
Many of our spiritual heroes in the Scriptures fasted, which meant missing meals and waiting upon the Lord with anticipation that He would answer them.
In the book of Daniel 10:12, it is mentioned that the prophet Daniel set himself aside so that he might understand and gain spiritual insight into what was happening around him.
The angel that came with the answer told him that from the day you set your heart to understand, I heard your words, and I have come because of your words.
If you long to go up into a higher spiritual realm, where you can hear and see with greater clarity than you set your heart to understand and choose your words that will bring the angelic answer.

THE MYSTERY OF GIANT KILLING
There is an interesting scripture that we should take some time to meditate upon today. It says, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it."
Here's where the problem begins when it comes to training and teaching people how to walk in the way of the Lord. That verse is often rephrased by your local mentor teacher when they say Train up a child in the way that I have been trained, because that is the best way.
The teenager David, who was destined to become king, met his first giant on someone else's battlefield. King Saul wanted him to do it his way with his armor. Make a note that Saul's technique at fighting giants had not worked yet. So far, they were still under the domination of the enemy.
Young David comes along with a new idea, and they laughed at him.
Take note when you fight your giant, be sure you use the skills that God has given you, not someone else's. You will be accused of being odd, or perhaps even unscriptural, by those who are religious or stuck in the past.
You may hear them say This is the way we've always done it.
This is a new era in the development of the kingdom of God. And the only way that your giant will be taken down is by the tools, the gifts, and the skill that he has given you personally.
Every one of us has been given a weapon that will bring our giants to the ground.
Identify the weapon that you have exercised until it becomes worthy of battle.
When you face your giant, don't listen to the gainsayers, the critics, and the religious. God has victories for you that you have only dreamed of. Today is that day of victory.

EAGLE OR CHICKEN? THE EAGLE RENEWS, THE CHICKEN BECOMES DINNER
The average life span of an eagle is about 70 years. That is a long time for a bird of prey to live. However, at about 40 years of age, the Eagle has some life-threatening things he has to deal with. His decisions now will determine if he gets a second chance at life.
By now, the Eagle's beak is old and useless, and their claws are worthless for hunting. Add to that the feathers that are old and thick and not doing their job anymore.
The Eagle decides to fly to the high mountain, where he begins his renewal process. He beats his beak against the rocks until it falls off, and another grows in his place.
He scratches until his claws fall away, and new ones come in their place. When that is done, he pulls all of his feathers out, and a fresh new crop of feathers comes back in.
This process takes 150 days.
Then, a new life begins for another 30 years.
The price the Eagle pays is the same one that you and I face as we process through the different stages of revelation and maturity into the place God called us.
If we don't have those agonizing challenges of removing the old, we will never receive the new and fresh in its place. Old habits. Old family traditions and immature revelations of who God is and who we are.
The Holy Spirit will point out those things to us if we expect to have that next season of life and spiritual growth.
If we don't do these things, we become chickens, and you know what happens to them at dinnertime.
Don't let this society or the enemy of your soul eat you for dinner.

LOVE AND MARRIAGE, THE FOUNDATION OF THE NATION
Happy anniversary, Dr. George and Arlis, number 56. How did the number get so high so quickly? It seems like only yesterday, as they say, that this all started.
Many of you have heard my favorite story of how the Lord led me to meet my darling wife.
A small church in a remote town on the coast of Washington state. Sunday dinner and a picture on the mantle turned my life around and set me on the course of 56 years of joyful marriage.
As you know, if you've been married for a season, some of that joy has to be acted out by faith when you go through struggles and adjustments. Put the investments you give to a marriage more than compensate for the rewards that come back to you over your lifetime.
God said it is not good for a man to be alone oh how true that is.
Love and marriage is the foundation of a nation. Because God-centered families are based on the commitment of a husband and a wife to each other, children who obey their parents strengthen their communities and their nation.
Ephesians 5:21, the apostle Paul tells us, out of our reverence for Christ, to be supportive of each other in love.
Thank you, Jesus, for loving families because of the love a man and a wife have for each other.

TAKE YOUR REVELATION OF GOD, THE FATHER OUT OF THE BOX
Understanding the Trinity, a divine mystery, requires a revelation that only the Holy Spirit can bestow. In our quest to comprehend this profound truth, we are often confronted with the diverse opinions of gospel teachers. How can our natural reasoning, shaped by our western minds, grasp the concept of three in one and one in three?
In the 17th chapter of the Gospel of John, Jesus prayed: “so that they all may be one just as you father are in me and I and you that they also may be one in us so that the world may be leave and be convinced that you have sent me.” This prayer is a profound revelation of the unity within the Trinity.
Indeed, this is one of the most potent verses in the Scriptures, a testament to the power and unity of the Trinity. Yet, we often find ourselves walking in a lack of understanding, unaware of the immense power and unity that is available to us.
Consider this: just as the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are one, a unique blend of unity and diversity, so too can we, in our spiritual journey and love for the Father, become one with them. This unity is not just a concept, but a reality we can experience.
Then Jesus goes on to pray that we would be one with the father, the son, and the Holy Spirit. This unity creates a divine community, a 'four in one' relationship, which is truly amazing.
You and I because of redemption have been taken back into the heart of the father, and we are one with the father son of a Holy Spirit. Wow.!

EMPTY TRASH CANS
Gone gone, gone gone. Yes, my sins are gone.
Buried in the deepest sea. Yes, that's good enough for me.
I shall live eternally, praise God; my sins are
G O N E gone.
Some of you may have sung that song in Sunday school, but I know I did.
It took a few years to understand the Father's love for us and what Christ did on the cross to realize the full meaning of that simple song.
Yesterday was trash day in our neighborhood, and as I drove away from my house this morning, a gray can was in front of every house as far as I could see.
In the spirit of God spoke to me and said empty, trash, cans, son.
I knew he reminded me of the power of the cross to remove the stain of sin and the curse that went with it.
The phrase from that song Buried in the Deepest Sea. It refers to the scriptures that tell us God has buried our sins in the sea of his forgetfulness, never to be remembered against us anymore.
Just think about the mystery of how God could empty our trashcan and make us worthy of becoming children of the living God.

THERE IS NO REVERSE TO THE KINGDOM OF GOD-IT JUST KEEPS EXPANDING
In Matthew 6 from the Passion Bible, Jesus teaches the disciples how to pray.
We call this the lord's prayer. We should refer to it as the disciple's prayer.
Our beloved Father, dwelling in the heavenly realms,
May the glory of your name be the center on which our lives turn.
Manifest your kingdom realm,
And cause your every purpose is to be fulfilled on earth.
We acknowledge you as our provider of all we need each day.
Forgive us the wrong as we have done as we are self release, forgiveness to those who have wronged us.
Rescue us every time we face tribulation, and set us free from evil.
For you are the king who rules with power and glory forever.
Amen.
Then Jesus goes on in the 14th verse
And when you pray, make sure you forgive the fault of others so that your Father in heaven will also forgive you.
But if you withhold forgiveness from others, your Father with holes forgiveness from you.
What you have just read is part of the bylaws of the kingdom of God that Jesus came and established. As we learn to live by the principles of the kingdom, that we belong to, it keeps expanding and growing every day.
There is no reverse on the kingdom of God.

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE BREATH OF GOD
Take a snapshot of Genesis 2:7. There, we see Adam's creation when God breathed the breath of life into him, and he became a living soul. That was the beginning of God's new creation of mankind.
God commissioned this new creation to take what they had in the Garden of Eden to the rest of God's creation, including the cosmos. Adam and Eve were created in God's image with the ability to reproduce their kind into God's newly created world. The great tragedy of Adam and Eve's failure in the garden was that it short-circuited God's plans to manifest himself and the very spirit of heaven into this created world.
Over the following centuries, there were several restarts where God gave mankind the opportunity to do it again. The most obvious to us is when the flood came, and Noah and his family had the opportunity that Adam and Eve had to reproduce, subdue, and bring heaven to Earth.
Again, at the Tower of Babel, where the nations were scattered, he gave Israel the unique distinction of taking this same commission to the world. He took them as his special children so they might reproduce as Adam and Eve were supposed to do on Earth.
However, the children of Israel kept failing their commission, and because God was merciful, he gave them many opportunities to get it right.
This is why God was manifested in the flesh of Jesus of Nazareth, who became the sacrifice that redeemed the world back to God. The whole human race had been disconnected because of rebellion and the breaking of covenants.
When Jesus rose from the dead and ascended to the Father with his blood, the entire human race was released from the curse that had been brought to them by Adams's fall. The gospel that we know and love has been given to us so that we might declare to the world. They are free to come home. Dad's not mad at you.

BORN FOR THE STORM
Are you looking for a boat to go fishing? I suggest you get one that can withstand a storm. Do your research to see if it was made to resist High Winds and rough Waters. It needs to be constructed strong enough to withstand the pressures and dangers of the storm.
In this life that God has placed us in, he promised us that there would be storms in our lives. However, he spoke piece to us when he said to be unafraid, for I will never leave you, nor for the sake of you.
I love the story of Peter walking on the water with Jesus in Matthew 14. The disciples were caught in a sudden storm and had rowed the boat four miles in the middle of the night, trying to rescue themselves from danger. Suddenly, they saw what they thought was a ghost walking by and cried out in fear.
It was then they heard the familiar voice of Jesus when he said fear not. It is I been on afraid.
One thing you can guarantee about a storm. It always brings fear at some level.
Because you and I were made in God's image, we have built-in storm-resistant capabilities. We were born for the storm.
One thing to remember about the storm is that it offers great opportunities for miracles and unusual supernatural events.
In the storm, Jesus showed the disciples a level of supernatural power they had never seen when he said to the storm hush be still.
They were fearful and deeply amazed at the same time.
It was in the storm that Jesus appeared. He challenged Peter to enter into a supernatural realm, which he had never experienced before when he walked on the water.
Because we are supernatural beings created in God's image, we have been born for the storm, and some of us are storm chasers.
We have discovered that it's in the storm where our most incredible faith and revelation come from.

DO YOU KNOW JESUS IN THE PRESENT?
It's a simple question that I am asking today, and by doing so, I am bringing our attention to what it means to walk in the light as he is in the light. When we learn the practice of being in his presence as a daily habit, we know what it means to know Jesus in this present time.
Too many Christians know the Jesus who walked the shores of Galilee, healing the sick and feeding the 5,000. They have gone to Sunday school and learned where he was born and how he died. They are well-versed in the Jesus of the past.
On the other hand, a disproportionate number of people study the Jesus of the future—the one who is coming someday to rescue them and take them to heaven. There are lengthy and repetitive teachings on the end times and what will happen someday, somewhere, somehow.
It's not unusual for Christians to tell me. Oh yes, Pastor, someday when we get to heaven, we'll have joy, be at peace, and be healed.
The challenge that the Holy Spirit gives us is to know Jesus of the present. The Scriptures tell us plainly today is the day of salvation.
That word salvation includes everything that Christ has done for us to be saved, healed, delivered, and walk in the power of the Spirit.
This is what it means to know Jesus in the present, To have fellowship with him, and to see him face-to-face often.
There was a historical Jesus who lived and died in Jerusalem and produced redemption for us. Thank God for that.
There is a Jesus who will return someday, as the Scriptures promise. Thank God for that.
However, God chose to give you and me the responsibility and privilege of bringing the gospel to this generation, and because of that, we must know him now.

HEAVENLY GOLD, DISCOVERED BY THOSE WHO SEEK HIS FACE
The revelation of Jesus Christ and what he has done for us and through us is the greatest discovery you will ever dig out of the Scriptures. That revelation does not come from the wisdom or the intelligence of human thinking; it comes from the revelation of the Holy Spirit to our spirit.
Heavenly gold has to be mined out of the Scriptures just like earthly gold is dug out of the dirt and rocks. And as it is in the natural, so it is in the spiritual that heat must be put to the rocks and the dirt to refine the gold so that it may be useful.
Heavenly gold is no different. To receive revelation from the scriptures you read, you must apply the heat of the glory of God's presence to understand the hidden secrets of God's kingdom.
Isaiah 45:3 tells us that God will give us the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of the secret places.
Psalms 91 says that we must dwell in the secret place of the most high to receive the revelation of those hidden places.
Where is the secret place of the most time? It is in the presence of the Lord as you seek his face in prayer, worship, scripture, meditation, and the Fellowship of the Saints. All those practices will produce a place of glory, where those hidden riches in the Scriptures can produce gold treasures of revelation that will impact your life for eternity.

AT EVERY CHALLENGE, GOD CHALLENGES, THE CHALLENGER-WE WIN BY DEFAULT
The key ingredient in living a life of faith is exercising the muscle called obedience to the word of God that has been revealed to you. The revelation of the word of God is different than the information in the Bible. The scriptures tell us that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Rom 10:17
When Jesus said to those around him," he that hath ears to hear, let him hear." He was referring to that inner ear, the ear of the spirit, which gives revelation of the word of God. When you hear with that ear and respond to what you hear, faith is born in your heart, and you receive what God has promised in the word that you Heard.
Romans 10: 8-10 illustrates this action of faith: when you hear and believe, you receive salvation and eternal life. From that point, your faith grows stronger each time you will be what you hear with your heart, that inner ear.
When we have that foundation of trust in the Lord, we know that when the enemy comes against us to challenge us, God challenges the challenger, and because of that, we win by default.
Isaiah 59:19 declares that when the enemy comes in, like a flood, the Lord raises up a resistance against that enemy. King James's version of that verse says he raises a standard against him. The standard is the battle flag of an army showing their colors. When God shows up with his angel army, the battle is over. He challenges the challenger, and because of that, the one who challenged us never shows up to court, and we win our case by default.
That is what the life of faith is based on: trusting in the Lord with all of our heart, and not leaning to our own understanding, but in all of our ways acknowledging him, and he will bring it to pass.

WHAT LABEL DO YOU LIVE UNDER?
What's wrong with this picture? The Protestant Reformation happened around 1500 years ago. It was a separation from the Catholic Church based on Martin Luther's revelation that the "just shall live by faith" and not by the rule of a church or under the control of a pope. Today, 30,000+ different labels of groups of people are trying to express what a Protestant is.
That's a lot of heavy bondage on the body of Christ.
Unfortunately, human nature was still in control, and it wasn't long until the protestants wanted to kill the suspected heretics just like the Catholics had done.
It was the same Spirit that Jesus contented with when the disciples came to him in Mark 9:38 and complained that someone outside their camp was casting out devils. They're anxious question to Jesus was we've got to do something about that.
Jesus had quite a simple rule about unity. He answered them and said well, fellas, if they're not against us, they must be for us, so leave them alone.
In 1906, there was an outbreak of the Holy Spirit in Los Angeles, California, on Azusa Street. A black man named William Seymour received the Holy Spirit while he listened to reports of it in a Bible school in Texas.
Coming to Los Angeles, the Spirit of God fell on them, and a prayer meeting in their home, eventually moving into an old Mission on Azusa Street.
It was like the shot that was heard around the world.
The outpouring of the baptism of the Holy Spirit, with speaking in tongues and all the gifts of the Spirit that were manifested, literally went around the world from that humble mission house.
Unfortunately, human nature took over again, and the first separation happened in the Pentecostal movement when the black brothers and sisters were shoved aside. They started a fellowship called the church of God in Christ.
From that point in time, it seemed that labels began to be important to the Spirit-filled folks. What started with one outpouring to describe Pentecostalism has splintered into literally hundreds, if not more, of labels that people live under.
At some point, if we're going to see the kingdom of God advance, we must have one label: Jesus Christ and him alone.
True fellowship is with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Everything else is secondary.

POCKETS OF WISDOM AND REVELATION
Why do some people in a large or small gathering who are listening to the word of God not hear the same thing? After a life of pastoring multiple churches, it's still beyond frustrating that someone can sit in the same congregation, hear the same message, and miss the point completely.
I conclude that the problem is not in the seed that's sown; according to the Book of Mark, the fourth chapter, it's the ground that makes the difference.
Jesus repeated this phrase many times: "He that has ears to hear, let him hear." That tells me that everyone has the ability to hear, but they also make choices about whether to hear.
In the thousands of church services I have conducted, someone has a breakthrough, a revelation of heaven, a divine encounter, yet the one next to them walks out the back door, angry at God and the church.
Jesus chose 12 disciples to train and leave the kingdom of God in their hands. These 12 disciples sat with him after the mass crusades, and he taught them the secrets and mysteries that no one else heard. The large crowds didn't get it, but he gave the inside revelation to the disciples.
Judas was present at all of these private meetings, where the Son of God opened up the mysteries of heaven, yet he missed them completely. Wisdom and revelation of the kingdom of God and his purpose for us continually come from the heavenly realms.
It's like digging for gold, these pockets of wisdom and revelation. The most important tool we have to dig out this precious gold of heaven is the instrument of "believing faith."
To receive anything from the treasures of heaven, it takes a believing face in God and his word. The Scriptures tell us that without faith, it is impossible to please God, for he that comes to him must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him.
Wisdom and revelation of the kingdom of God are there. Get your big leaving face out and find it.

WHAT'S NEXT FOR US IN THE BODY OF CHRIST?
HERE'S A FLASH FOR YOU! You can expect change.
It is part of God's nature that he injected into everything he created. If it's not growing, it's dying. You can see that principle working in your garden or the landscape around your house. What isn't rooted in healthy soil is on the way to being a dead plant.
The plan of God has continued to grow in the long journey from Adam and Eve's creation in the Garden of Eden to the present. The parts of that plan that lost their roots in every generation of past history died and disappeared.
Today, we face the same challenges that every person in the body of Christ had to deal with: Do we grow and develop into God's will and exhibit his plans, or do we fade away into the shadows of history?
What's next for us as people of God and those who believe in the plan he laid out for the human race? It's a twofold answer. First of all, it's an individual choice. What will you do with the challenges? God has given you as a believer.
Secondly, people from all over the world have to make the same choice.
If those communities of believers continue to obey the direction that the Holy Spirit has given them as part of the living organism of Christ on earth, they will see Christ's revelation unfold for them.
However, those communities of believers that stagnate and turn into a religious denomination will not become stones to walk on so that we may progress. Still, they will become stones to trip over and hinder the Progressive progress that the body of Christ has before it.
Sorry, you don't get the details in advance. That's between you and the Holy Ghost. That's why it's called the walk of faith. That's what keeps the Holy Spirit as the leader of the pack.

faithproducers.com WHAT'S NEXT
NOW THAT YOU HAVE ASK HIM-DO YOU RECOGNIZE THE ANSWER?
The scriptures clearly tell us that if we ask anything in prayer believing, we shall receive it. That being true because the Scriptures do not lie, how many times can we ask for the same thing without being in unbelief?
I know that we always have the illustration of the woman who was dealing with the unjust judge. Because of that, she kept coming back until he, out of frustration, gave her the answer.
According to the scriptures that Jesus gave us, it does not represent my heavenly father.
Our heavenly father is so tuned into us that he hears us before we ask, and while we are speaking, the answer is on the way.
That's fast, real fast, even faster than Amazon.
So, here's my question: now that you have asked, how are you expecting to recognize the answer?
You may have asked him to open your eyes so that you may see more clearly into the spiritual world. Or you have, perhaps, asked for wisdom, the spirit of wisdom to give you an answer to a problem. And, like most of us who have asked to hear from the Lord what we should do for the moment.
Here are a few reminders from the Scriptures on what Jesus has said about asking and receiving.
Matthew 7:7: ask and you shall receive, seek, and you shall find knock, and it shall be open onto you. For everyone who ask will receive.
Wow, that's pretty good.
Luke, 1110;
Everyone who asks and keeps on asking receives, and he who seeks and keeps on seeking finds, and to him who knocks and keeps on locking the door shall be open. AMP
That sounds definite to me.
So here's my encouragement to you today. According to the scripture, your answer is already there, but perhaps you still need to recognize it because you expected it to come a different way.

GOD DOES NOT TEMPT ANYONE
The original sin of Adam and Eve seems to set a standard for others to follow. Two things stand out that have been identifiable throughout history.
Number one, I am a victim.
Number two, it wasn't my fault it was yours.
Listen to Adam as God is confronting him in the garden. "He said, "This woman you gave me, she caused me to sin."
Our society today has certainly taken that to new heights. Everybody is a victim, and it's not their fault—everything from the government, climate change, the Republicans, the Democrats, and the preacher.
Of course, we tend to blame God when we mess up. Some say God knew what I was going to do, so why didn't he stop it? It was probably God who tempted me to see if I would fail.
Just to set the record straight. The book of James 1:13 tells us, "God does not tempt us with evil. But every man or woman is tempted by their desires."
Because that is true, we must focus on the Holy Spirit's work within our soul and thought life. If we don't take control through the Holy Spirit's power within us, our thoughts will dominate and lead us into a trap that will eventually kill us. (James 1:13 paraphrased)
Of course, the answer is not mind control or self-discipline. The only thing that works long-term is total submission to Christ. It is because of our submission to Jesus Christ as our Lord that our hearts are filled with the goodness of heaven and the presence of the Lord.
This is why the Scriptures tell us, " Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks." The flesh or natural man can never be trusted without the control of the Holy Spirit. It's because of the Holy Spirit that we have those wonderful fruits of love, joy, peace, temperance, goodness, etc.

I WILL WATCH OVER WHAT I HAVE PLANTED
As I was preparing myself for my night, watch and a good nights sleep, I heard the voice of the Lord that said,” I will watch over what I have planted.”
Then I realized that the spirit of God was not talking about himself, he was talking about me.
An uncomfortable portion of the Christian community depends on God to do everything for them. Most of us in our early days of prayer spent our time directing God to go do this or do that. Somehow our prayers sounded like a traffic cop directing traffic in a busy intersection.
However, when we begin to understand what happened at the cross in the resurrection, we know that we are now coal laborers with our heavenly father.
When Jesus ascended to the father, he said he would send the Holy Spirit who would be your helper. Many of us may think that the Holy Spirit helps us in our personal life only with problems and pressures.
I believe the scriptures clearly tell us that the responsibility for this earth, and the way it functions has been turned over today men and women of faith who represent God, the Holy Spirit, but Jesus on this earth.
So in the spirit made this statement; “I will watch over what I have planted.”
It was my voice speaking to my self, being reminded of the covenant that I have with the Lord Jesus himself to stand by the stuff that I have planted.
Remember your prayers.
Remember your prophecies.
Remember his promises to you.
It is our responsibility to stand by the stuff stay on the wall be the watchmen through intercession prayer declaration, and a strong faith that God will bring to pass what he has promised us, and what we have planted.

WE CAME FROM ABOVE, AND CHRIST TOOK US HOME
If I wanted to capture the mission of Jesus to earth in simple terms, I would call it. Gods rescue mission. The fathers plan from the beginning was to have created sons and daughters in his image. I like to refer to them as gods imagers.
Because Janice is 126 tells us that's what God intended when he created mankind that he would make them in his image.
So you and I are imagers.
However, you know the story Adam got sidetracked, and he followed his own way, and the whole human race followed behind him. Gods, imagers on earth became captive to another master.
Matthew the fourth chapter, says that they were in darkness and bound up all their lives. That's when a great light came, and begin to illuminate the world around them, and leave them out in the freedom.
Jesus lead a rescue team into this earth. Ephesians 4 describes it that he descended to the Earth from heavenly places.
Then it tells us that he ascended and lead the captives that he had rescued in triumphant procession into the heavily realms.
It goes on to tell us, then, in the book of Ephesians, that we are now seated with him in those heavenly realms, because he rescued us and brought us back to the father.
JESUS IS NOT THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD-YOU ARE
As shocking as that may sound to the ear of the religious Christian, in all reality, it's true. When God said to the sons of God around him at the time, let us make man in our image, and let him have dominion multiply and fill the whole earth. It could only mean one thing: we are created with God's DNA in the very core of our spirit.
The scriptures tell us that God is light. So buy that deduction you and I have been made in his image. We must be light also. Even our modern scientific technology can detect you and me emanating the light from our bodies.
However, let's see that in the spiritual sense. Jesus said in John 8:12 I am the light of the world, and those who embrace me will experience life-giving light, and they will never walk in darkness.
Jesus told us in John 9:5 that as long as I am with you, my life is the light that pierces the world's darkness.
In Philippians 2:15, the passion Bible tells us, for then you will be seen as innocent faultless and pure children of God, even though you live in the midst of a brutal and perverse culture, for you will appear among them as shining lights in the universe, holding out the words of eternal life.
Then, in Matthew 5:14 in the Passion Bible, your lives light up the world, for how can you hide a city that stands on the hilltop, and who would light a lamp and then hide it in an obscure place? Instead, it's placed where everyone in the house can benefit from its light, so don't hide your light. Let it shine brightly before others so that your commendable works will shine as light upon them, and then they will give their praise to your father in heaven.
Without question, God is the source of all light because he created us. And Jesus, by his sacrifice, gave us the light that dwells within us. Then, he gave us direct commands to continue to shine that same light into this world because we are the light of the
WHY THE APOSTLE PAUL DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW ANYONE AFTER THE FLESH?
Some would consider Paul's statement to be one of a hermit, or at best, a mystic who wanted to live in a cave. However, both of those thoughts are not true because Paul knew what it would take to make the bridge between Jesus, the man, and Jesus, the Christ, the son of God.
In the book of Ephesians 3:3, Paul makes the statement. This wonderful mystery, which I briefly described, was given to me by divine revelation so that whenever you read it, you will be able to understand my revelation and insight into the secret mystery of the Messiah.
The Holy Spirit knew that if Paul had gone directly to Jerusalem, after his supernatural experience, on the road to Damascus, he would've learned and been trained in the outward expressions of Jesus, the man.
If the New Testament church were anything like today's church, they would've taken Paul to all the hotspots and pointed out where Jesus healed the sick. He would've met Jesus, his mother, and his brothers and heard the story of his childhood and how God spoke to him as a young man.
This is what Paul meant when he said he knew no one after the flesh.
In the same manner that the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness, the Holy Spirit directed Paul to spend 14 years alone, separated from the physical flesh history of Jesus, the man.
When Paul came to Jerusalem and introduced himself to the disciples, he had received that revelation of Jesus, the Christ, the son of the living God.
It's upon that foundation that the church of Jesus has been built and grows today because we understand who Christ is to us.
THE UNIVERSITY OF ANGELS-AND EVERYONE IS A PROFESSOR
I love Angels. As a matter of fact, I love everything that has to do with God's world. I love angels because God loves angels. I love angels because they have been created by the same God who created me. That makes us a unique family because we have the same father.
However, I am also aware that even the angels remind us that we don't worship them because they have been given to us as ministering spirits to bring us to our destiny.
In reality, we are the professors at the University of Angels. The Scriptures tell us nothing: angels are baffled at the grace of God toward former rebels that he has brought back into the family. How could that be? That those who betrayed him were now back at the top tier of authority in the kingdom of God?
First, Peter 1:12 tells us that the angels are curious about this because they look into and study our lives to see what it means to have. This kind of grace is given to us.
You and I are living examples of a mystery that has been revealed to the angels and all the heavenly hosts. We are living examples of God's unending ability to give grace, forgiveness, empowerment, and sonship to those who do not deserve it.
IN THE STORM HOLD TIGHT TO THE PROMISES
I love the sunshine and hate the rain. Whoa, what am I saying I live in the north west where we have four seasons in the year. We have two days of spring four days of summer and attempt at a decent fall in a long, dark winter.
Well, of course I'm exaggerating but not much. We used to tell everyone it rained all the time and Northwest just to keep them away. Put the secret got out that the storm clouds that rolled in brought rain, and the rain brought luscious green hills and rushing rivers.
So you see without the storm clouds, we would live in a barren land. Show me years ago our church here was visited by some brothers from Arizona. The thing they complained about was, they couldn't see the hills. Our hills are green, and filled with trees. Their hills are brown, and filled with dead grass and such..
Jesus told us storms would come. He referred to them as trouble.. However, he was clear about the fact that he would never leave us in the trouble, but he would take us through to victory.
Those are the promises we hold onto and times win the storm clouds role in on us we know that they also bring to us the ability to grow in patience and trust in the lord.
We can quote scriptures in the Sunday morning sanctuary with great boldness, but often lose your confidence when alone in the storm. That's the time that we must stand firm upon the promises of God, because they will never fail us.
SEALED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT UNTIL WE EXPERIENCE COMPLETE FREEDOM
How much of the word of God do we, as believers, really believe? I'm speaking about the general body, including myself, at times, as I have learned to walk by faith and not by sight. Most of what we know comes from our mentors, those who raised us in the gospel. Like a natural family, the spiritual family passes on its excellent and bad traits.
We learned how to pray by watching our elders pray around the altar, especially in the early days when we did the same. We have learned to worship and sing the songs of praise because we watched others do it and followed after them.
So I ask you again, how much of the word of God do you believe? You can tell how much we believe. By the way, we pray and the way we worship.
If you're still begging or asking God to do something for you, you may need to dig a little deeper into the revelation that God gave to Paul in the book of Ephesians. If you're still worshiping in your public services, hoping God shows up to give a blessing, you may need to review who you are in Christ and where God and you are actually seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.
When we believe what the word of God says about us, we speak differently and worship differently. Because God has made us in his image, we are in the divine family, called sons of God.
OPEN DOORS, OPEN HEAVENS
The 10th chapter of John is an amazing revelation of Jesus as the door to eternity and heaven's glory. The Passion Bible says it this way in the ninth verse. (Jesus said) I am the gateway; to enter through me is to experience life, freedom, and satisfaction.
Nicodemus came to Jesus in the dark of night because of his reputation as a spiritual leader. When he asked Jesus how he did the miracles, Jesus told him that to understand, you have to have a new spirit and be born from above. Being a religious man, steeped in the traditions of the elders, Nicodemus could not catch the depth of what Jesus was teaching him that night.
Jesus was talking about entering another world, a doorway that you can enter by faith through his name. When that takes place, you are reborn from above. Because of that, you can understand spiritual mysteries and walk in the lord's ways.
As believers in Jesus Christ, we face many doors on our journey, all of which will open by the same action of faith that the first one begins with believing in Jesus and the redemptive power he gave us because of the cross of the Resurrection.
Matthew 7:7 Jesus said to ask in the gift is yours seek, and you will discover knock, and the door will be open for you.
For every persistent, one will get what he asked for. Every persistent seeker will discover what he longs for.
And everyone who knocks persistently will one day find an open door. P/B
Press into Jesus, my friends, be persistent, and keep knocking; the door will open, and you will experience the kingdom of God beyond your imagination.

KEEP GOD ON THE THRONE AND JESUS AS THE DOOR
How far can we go with the revelation and insight that we get from dreams or prophetic words that we receive from the Lord? What is the rule of thumb, as they say, to judge whether we are hearing from God or having a vain imagination?
Most often, someone will answer that question with this statement. If it's not in the Bible, it's not true, so we must throw that revelation away. As we have this thought today, let's keep in mind that most of what we do in life is not in the Bible, at least in the detail that some say we need.
For instance, there is no chapter and verse for who you will marry or what job you should take next. When I was pastorimg with my Father in Sacramento as a teenage preacher I was challenged by a Hyper spiritual teenager that I shouldn't drive a car because Jesus didn't drive a car.
OK, you've got the point. Some things have the principles in the Bible but not the exact details.
Concerning dreams and prophecies, let's also keep in mind that Jesus said there was much more that he wanted to teach us and that the Holy Spirit would bring the things he had taught to our minds and spirits.
Without a doubt, the Bible is the blueprint, the pattern, and the roadmap that takes us to our destiny. It's my experience and my opinion that you can only read that roadmap with the Holy Ghost interpreting it. That's where dreams, prophecies, and angel messengers come into play.
All of these things that I've just mentioned and found through the Scriptures are various actions of men and women, just like you and me, who seek to please the Father.
So, I am trying to figure out what to do. I've prayed all night, and when I go to sleep, I get a dream.
In the dream, God tells me what I couldn't hear while awake.
It's evident to me that the Bible is an expanding book of revelations, depending on how we hear and see with our spiritual eyes and ears. Some read the Bible and go to sleep, while others read it and see far beyond what the page in front of them says.
Here is the key to keeping myself safely anchored in truth, as God speaks to me about things others may not agree with but believe are from the Holy Spirit.
I keep God on the throne and Jesus as the door in everything I do, everything I say, and everywhere I go in the spirit. My feet are on solid ground as long as those two unshakable truths are in place.

IDENTIFY THE THIEF AND GET IT ALL BACK
Among the many lessons I've learned while walking with Christ is that this experience is multifaceted. Nothing in the spiritual world is built or works on a set of principles you can carry in your notebook and pull out when needed.
The Christian Life and the mysteries of this beautiful, supernatural world are like the computer. It's all there, ready to go, except you need a password to make it happen. The key or password is not simply faith or belief. If that were the case, anyone could manipulate their own Life by training themselves to believe.
The key to Christian Life is believing in Christ, his finished work on the cross, and his resurrection. When that happens, you step into his world and become joined with his Life, so when you identify a thief, you have the authority to get it all back.
We tend to want a formula of faith that we can use without a relationship with our Father in heaven. Remember, Jesus did nothing but what he saw his Father doing. This Christian experience is a training ground for an eternity of working with our heavenly Father in the cosmos he has created for us to develop and fill with his glory.
The things that steal from us in this temporal Life are just practices for our faith and our trust in our heavenly Father to grow and mature.
David was destined to be Israel's greatest king because he would establish the kingdom through God's direction. Before that happened, he had to go through his Ziklag experience in First, Samuel 30, where he and his men lost everything they had. So, The next item on the agenda was that they were going to kill him.
When David reconnected with the Lord through worship, God told him to pursue his enemy, and he would get it all back.
It's time to hear the Holy Spirit's direction on capturing our destiny and getting it all back.

HAVING A HEAVENLY CONVERSATION WITH JESUS
Some years ago, while traveling through the East Coast in ministry, we visited Williamsburg, Virginia. Williamsburg is one of our history's essential places where our forefathers gathered and formed our early America.
They have replicated or restored the old town to look like it did in the 1700s.
All of the workers in town are dressed appropriately for the age they represent, so it turns out to be a fascinating and fun place to be.
At one point, our tour guide pointed to a second story on a building across the street. She said those who gathered would go there after dinner and have a good conversation.
I thought to myself, what would it be like to converse with the type of men with the wisdom and intelligence to form the first nation of freedom in history? Then, I added several other people I would like to have a good conversation with. People of renown, inventors, preachers, etc.
Then, I was brought to the meeting that Nicodemus and Jesus had in John three. Nicodemus missed a conversation with Jesus about heavenly things. Why did he miss such a life-changing opportunity to speak to the Son of God about spiritual mysteries?
According to Jesus's own words, Nicodemus could not understand natural things. Because of that, Jesus would not even take him into the realm of spiritual things because he would also miss the understanding of that.
Scriptures tell us that we can see God in all his creation so that no one would be without excuse. The heavens speak of him, indicating that the stars are set in a position and order so that they have a message that speaks of God's creation and his love for mankind.
So, where do we start if we desire to have a conversation with Jesus? You begin with "believing faith." Jesus said, if you believe in me, you'll have everlasting life.
That's the very reason God sent his only begotten son into a natural world so that we could start believing in what we could see in Jesus. When we do that, the heavenly things open up.

DO YOU TRUST HOLY SPIRIT AS MUCH AS GPS?
Guidance is the main issue of life.
From our earliest memories, someone is trying to tell us where to go and what to do. Obviously, in a well-structured home that God placed you in, your mother and father are the first instructors. They tell me that young children learn what they will do 95% of the time in the first five years as they grow older. They also say that training happens at their mother's knee.
In the early Jewish tradition, the young sons were trained by their mother until they were seven, and then their father took over to teach them a trade they would do for life.
So guidance is a big deal in the life of the believer, you, and those who have given themselves to Jesus Christ. Yet, in all of the years I have pastored, the most repetitive question I got is," What do you think God has in store for me." Or a variation of the same question concerning life's journey.
Learning to hear the voice of Holy Spirit, and trusting to be obedient to what you hear is a muscle you exercise until it strengthens. It's similar to the young child who is learning to walk. Getting up and running would be very unusual for that young child.
So it is in learning to listen to Holy Spirit's direction with the same confidence you have in your GPS on your precious iPhone.
To be clear, I have been led astray several times by GPS but never by the Holy Spirit. There have been times when my hearing could have been better when he spoke, but he never led me down a dead-end pathway.
Sometime today, take time to meditate upon Psalms, the 23rd chapter, and let God reassure you that he will lead you beside still Waters and pathways that are good for you.

YOU DON'T DRINK POND WATER
Jesus said, If you drink from Jacobs well, you'll be thirsty again, but if anyone drinks the living water I give them, they will never be thirsty again. For when you drink the water I give you, it becomes a gushing fountain of the Holy Spirit, flooding you with endless life! ( John 4:14) p/b
This may shock you when I say that reading the Bible without the Spirit of God, anointing the words you read, is like drinking stale pond water. This is the reason they can use the Bible as a textbook in the universities without the results you would expect.
In other words, scripture reading only can become vain repetition. Believing faith is what turns that stale pond water into a living river that will give you endless life. You cannot act on the scriptures to obey them without the Holy Spirit, inspiration, and drawing you to the Father.
This is the mystery of salvation and the grace of righteousness given to us freely. Unless the Holy Spirit speaks to you through those scriptures, you will never see past the ink upon the page.
John 6:63 Jesus said the words that I speak into you they are spirit and they are life. Many of you reading this have had this experience often as you meditated upon the scripture that you have read hundreds of times.
Suddenly, it's as if the paper changed, and you read something different because your spiritual eyes opened up, and you look past the page into the revelation Christ was bringing for that moment.
That's the difference between pond water, water, and river water.
You don't drink pond water because it's dead. There's no life in it.
River water cleanses itself as it flows along, producing something good for you.
So it is with the words printed in the Bible in front of you. It takes the Holy Spirit to turn that into living water for you as you take it into your spirit. Trust him to do the work in you.

AND IT CAME TO PASS-THE SEASONS IN OUR LIVES
Happy New Year, everyone. Here we are in 2024, and we have no idea how we got here. It seems just like yesterday when much of the church was all concerned about Y2K and the end of things. The hotels were all sold out in and around Jerusalem, expecting Jesus to break through the Eastern gate.
The secular world was concerned about the computer crash because of the change in the century date. Satellites were going to fall out of the sky. Elevators wouldn't work in the giant towers, and the stock market would crash because of the Computer failures.
And yet here we are 24 years later, listening to the same rhetoric of doom and gloom and damnation, destruction, death, failure, and hopelessness.
Brother, that sounds like good news. Not!
The good news is that all of these have been seasons in your life to prepare you for the days ahead that God has promised and will fulfill. If you think the Holy Spirit will fail in doing what he has been commissioned from the Father, then you have some lessons to learn.
The Lessons are simple. God never fails and never gives up until the plan is fulfilled and complete.
This new year that he has given us to shape and conquer with our prayers and faith is a precious gift that he has entrusted to those who are faithful to stand in faith and prayer for his kingdom to be established on this earth.
I am not ignorant of what's happening in the natural world around me. However, I am more sensitive to the spiritual world that controls the natural world, and that's where you and I come in.
We are members of the body of Christ, and we sit in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. And from that position of authority, we have the ability and command to subdue, dominate, and rule this world.
This is a new season for us. It's the season of victory. Call it what you will: revival, renewal, or a divine reset.
2024 WILL BE AN AMAZING YEAR FOR THOSE WHO ARE IN CHRIST JESUS.

THE ALTERNATE WORLD WHERE YOUR SPIRIT DWELLS?
Forty-five years ago, I brought my young family to a small farming community 60 miles north of Seattle to pastor a fledgling church. Our town is in a valley nourished for centuries by river water overflowing and depositing an excellent rich soil. 95% of our industry is farming. We grow a wide variety of vegetables, including fruit trees and various grains. However, we are known Worldwide for our tulips.
For centuries, the nation of the Netherlands dominated and controlled the tulip industry. At one point in their history, at the height of a "tulip bubble," one bulb sold for the price of a house. With worldwide migration, some tulip growers found their way to our small valley. For the last three decades, we have been competitors to the Netherlands, sometimes passing their output of tulips.
Every year in the month of Easter, 250,000 people drive our little country roads, taking pictures of tulips and buying sacks of bulbs to take home.
The point of this trip down memory lane is to bring your attention to what makes all of this possible. I drove out across the valley a few weeks ago, and I'm always amazed at how they can take a piece of ground that is so ugly and make it flat and smooth before they plant it with a new crop.
They go through the ground with several different types of plows. Once a year or so, they will take a deep plow that will go down several feet, bring up the soil, and turn it over so the hidden nutrients will be on top again.
Then, they take one special plow after another, breaking it down until it is ready to plant.
I have brought your attention to all of this for one purpose so that you would take your deep plow through Ephesians in the first, second, and third chapters.
If you do that, I'm convinced you will see something you've never seen before, even though you have read it many times.
The message the Holy Spirit wants to say today is how real your life in the heavenly realm is. According to Ephesians, your spirit dwells in another realm—some call this "bilocation" where we live in two places at once.
These are the mysteries that God wants us to search out and understand.
Let's plow through Ephesians in these next few days to see what God will reveal to us.
Today is a good time to start.

SANTA CLAUSE VS SANTA JESUS- WILL THE REAL SANTA PLEASE STAND
HOW DO WE TELL THE REAL SANTA? ( Santa= righteous and holy)
Both Santas are jolly.
Both Santas love children.
Both Santas give good gifts.
Both Santas can fly.
Both Santas have an expected return.
Both Santas have people looking for their appearing.
Both Santas have a massive group of servants.
And both Santas love you unconditionally.
Whoops- hold it a minute. If I remember right, Santa Claus will love you and give you gifts if you're nice. However, if you are naughty, heaven help you.
And here's where Santa "Jesus" comes in.
With the real Santa Jesus Christ, love is not conditional.
Romans 8 declares that there is nothing that will cause Jesus to stop loving you.
Plus- you received his love even before you loved him.
Santa Claus never gave his life to redeem you from death.
Jesus did!
Santa Claus never rose from the dead to give you the gift of eternal life.
Jesus did!
Santa Claus never went to your heavenly Father to prepare a place for you to dwell with him forever.
Jesus did!
The real Santa is already standing.
Jesus Christ is standing in defense of you before the Father's throne as an intercessor and defending your righteous position in the family of God against your accuser.
His love is eternal. It will never end.
Forget about the Santa that will give you a "piece of coal" when you miss a step or miss the mark.
Jesus Christ gives forgiveness and righteousness.
Well, that sells it for me. I cast my vote for the actual gift giver, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, who came from the Father in heaven to give you the greatest gift of all. He gave himself as the blood sacrifice that redeemed you from the grip of death and brought you back to your heavenly Father's heart where you belong.
Welcome home! AND MERRY CHRISTMAS!

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE WHEN EVERYTHING CHANGED
When you look back on your personal life and our national life, you recognize a number of nights that we could call "our night before" when everything changed.
There's an old familiar statement we often make when we say, "It's always darkest before the dawn." What we mean by that is that before a miracle happens or our situation changes, we have plenty of opportunity to be in despair and fear.
Each of us has memories of our turning points, soon good, some real good, and also some not so good—the night before you board the plane for your planned vacation to the Bahamas. Or the night before, you have to face the judge in the courthouse. These are the nights that you remember because it's in these times that your character and strengths are strengthened and formed.
Look at Paul and Silas, as related in the Book of Acts, in jail at midnight. It was their night before God's miracle happened, and they were set free supernaturally.
Take a snapshot of Peter as he's in chains, locked up in a Roman prison. Meanwhile, the fellow believers were gathered, praying for his deliverance when the angel came and set him free supernaturally.
It was the night before when George Washington, the commander of our young revolutionary army, knelt in prayer, asking God for guidance. It had been months since we declared our independence, and our battle against the biggest army in the world was not going well. We had yet to win in any of the battles that we fought.
As George Washington was in prayer. God gave him a battle plan. He was to take his men across the Delaware River on Christmas Eve and attack the German mercenary army that England had hired. So, in the middle of the night, he took his army across the icy river in a blinding snowstorm. Catching the enemy by surprise, they had a total victory.
It was the turning of the war that eventually brought us our freedom and independence.
There is the "night before" in every one of our lives, and what keeps us true to our faith and the promises of God is knowing that he is faithful to bring us to our destination.
How could we forget the garden scene with Jesus on his "night before" experience? The scriptures tell us that he was in such intense interaction with his Father in prayer, that he sweat as it were great drops of blood.
The next day changed the world forever and made it possible for you and me to have eternal life and be taken back into the Father's heart.
Stand firm in your "night before" because tomorrow's coming when victory is promised.

JESUS CAME TO THE WHOLE WORLD AND FOUND ONE OUTCAST WOMAN
We just sailed through another Christmas season, celebrating the coming of the savior of the world as a baby in the manger. But there is a reason why the Bible does not record the adolescent years of Jesus, except for one episode, when he was 12 in the temple.
We jump from that description of that young 12-year-old and the priest he interchanged with to a 30-year-old man walking up to John the Baptist to start his destiny God sent him to fulfill.
As interesting as it may be to know the daily schedule of a five-year-old Jesus, the Holy Spirit excluded that on purpose so that we would focus on the main reason that God came in the flesh in the form of Jesus of Nazareth.
John 3:16 tells us that God's only begotten son came to redeem the world and everything God created.
We spend the next three years watching Jesus through the eyes of the four gospels, healing the sick, raising the dead, and feeding the hungry.
Jesus came to the whole world and found one woman, an outcast woman by the well outside of town. If there ever was a snapshot of our heavenly Father's heart toward his children, you see it as Jesus sits alone, ministering to a broken woman.
Christ came to save the world, but it always starts with one lost soul that needs redemption. Jesus was a walking billboard for God, the Father, because he said everything I do is because I see a Father doing it.
As excellent and beyond imagination, as it was to see Jesus heal entire cities. His real work started when the stripes were laid on his back, and they marched him to the cross.
We shout and cheer when the sick are healed, and how wonderful it is. But heaven rejoices, and the angels rejoice. When one lost, child of God comes back to the Father, because Jesus went to the cross, rose from the dead, descended into hell, and led those captives out. He spent 40 days downloading the kingdom of God into the disciples. Then he ascended to the Father and now sits by his right hand, speaking on your behalf against any accusation.
The baby Jesus in the manger is an important start, but let us not be stuck in a never-ending circle. As the Scriptures tell us, we should be like Jesus and go on unto perfection.

THE DOUBLE STANDARD-DID CHRIST COME IN THE FLESH?
Fifty years after Christ's ascension, the apostle John set pen to paper and gave us the first, second, and third John in the Scriptures. This is the same disciple who leaned on Jesus's breast during the Last Supper. This is the one they could not kill, so they put him on the Isle of Patmos, where he wrote the revelation of Jesus Christ.
In first, John the fourth chapter, he's dealing with a crisis that is happening in the Christian church. In a short five decades after Jesus ascended, 50% of the church did not believe that God actually came in the flesh. The teachings and revelation that the apostle Paul had 50 years previous to this had been taken over by perversive teachers that entered into the bloodstream of the church.
We often use this passage of scripture in our modern situation, challenging an evil spirit or a person who may be under the influence and bondage of an evil spirit. We ask them if they can confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh.
It's not unusual for us modern-day Christians to believe that the entire Bible was written just for us today. When we do, we miss some of the most powerful reasons why the Scriptures were pinned in the first place.
I have witnessed all too often while identifying which spirit someone moves in that this scripture is still valid today for this challenge.
However, we can miss the point of why John wrote the book if we don't identify the perversion that was trying to kill this infant Christianity that God had brought through Jesus Christ.
The apostle John tells us in chapter 4, verse two in the Passion Bible: here's the test for those with the genuine spirit of God: they will confess Jesus is the Christ, who has come in the flesh.
Verse three: everyone who does not acknowledge that Jesus is from God, has the spirit of antichrist, which you heard was coming and he's already active in the world.
Two standards were being lifted concerning who Jesus really was. One was the truth that the original apostles had laid out for the church, that Jesus was God and man together. God manifested in the flesh.
The second standard crafty teachers were raising was that Jesus was just a prophet talking about God. John clearly identifies that spirit as the spirit of antichrist, which was already working in his day.
When the Scriptures tell us to lift a standard, it directs us to hold up the banner of truth concerning Jesus, why he came, and who he was and is today.

THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM SOLVER
What was the original sin that separated humanity from fellowship with their creator? Was it, not the fact that Adam and Eve stepped away from the rules of life that God had set for them? The key to harmony and peace in the heavenly kingdom and in the world that Adam lived in was obedience to the rules of life.
Those rules of life were very clear. Obey what I say, and you will have success. Disobey what I say, and you will find trouble.
As quoted in the book of Genesis, the serpent in the garden came into their life of tranquility and peace and beguiled them. The word beguiled means to bring confusion to the point of changing your opinions and understanding.
What happened was that Adam and Eve became their own counselor and, in a real sense, their own God.
From that point on, it was "game on." Who among us needs God? We can be our own problem solvers.
So here we are after all of these centuries that have passed, and we have come up with a new brilliant idea called artificial intelligence (AI). The boasting of those who have created this latest challenger to God says it will be the smartest thing ever made. It will contain all of the wisdom and knowledge of the world. And at the push of a button, you can get any problem solved.
No wonder the unregenerate man is attracted to something that can solve their problems quickly. Why, not after all, do we have everything else, such as fast food, instant music, and movies on demand? Why not problem-solving on demand?
You're looking at another feeble attempt to replace God. Besides, who needs to pray or read the Bible or ask the preacher when you have this marvelous invention of man's creation, artificial intelligence?
So, what's God's response to this? The same as it always has been over the centuries, he laughs at man's foolishness. The house of cards that man makes in his attempt to be delivered from the hand of God's authority always comes to ruin.
James 1:5 tells us that if we ask for wisdom, he will give it to us.
Jeremiah 33:3 declares that if we call to him, he will answer and show us great and mighty things that we do not know.
After all, our God, Jehovah, is the original problem solver.

WISDOM GIVES LIFE
It's the first day of a new week, and we look forward to the challenging yet adventurous days ahead of us. Because life is not always guaranteed to work out the way you thought it would, we trust the Lord to guide us through the pitfalls and the snares that it may offer.
To do that, we prepare ourselves by studying and meditating upon the word of God for wisdom. Godly wisdom comes only from the spiritual realm in which God lives and from the spirit of wisdom herself.
To receive godly wisdom, we have been given the ability by God himself to have Faith and belief. The Scriptures tell us that he has given every person the measure of Faith. God's Faith is planted in the spirit of every created human so they can believe in the Lord Jesus and find their way home to the Father.
We have been given clear instructions on receiving the spirit of wisdom and the gift of life. The apostle Paul told his spiritual son Timothy to study the word of God, and it would prove him to be a faithful servant.
Jesus said the words that I speak into you are spirit and life. So, as we meditate upon the word of God, it becomes food for our spiritual man and gives us the life of God.
The Hebrew scholars tell us that each Hebrew letter is a spirit, a living being that God created. With that thought in mind, you can understand why if we eat the word of God, it becomes life to us.
Meditating upon the word of God has several facets to it. When I think of that, I am reminded of the cow that chews the grass in the field in the morning when the dew is on it. Then, when the sun gets hot, she lays under a cool shade tree and chews it again, getting all of the benefits out of that food taken in.
This is what it means to meditate upon the word of God day and night.
Chew it again!

THE KEY TO ETERNAL JOY
We used to sing a song in the church: "It is joy unspeakable and full of glory, and the half has never yet been told." And another song was:
"Joy bells, ringing in my heart, Joy bells, ringing in my heart,
Take the savior here below with you everywhere you go,
You will have the joy-bells ringing in your heart,"
Joy and a life of peace have always been the theme of the Christian message, as well as the lifestyle of a believer in Jesus Christ. That's one of the reasons we sing about it and teach it from the word of God.
So, what is the key to eternal joy? How do I, as a believer in Jesus Christ, maintain a lifestyle that is void of depression, fear, and downright unbelief?
The Scriptures tell us that in the presence of the Lord, there is fullness of joy and that his right hand pleasures forever more. ( Ps 16:11)
It's my experience that you can't dwell in depression and be in faith at the same time. The scriptures tell us bitter and sweet water can't flow from the same well.
I also know that if I am in the presence of the Lord, depression can't stay with me because, in his presence, there is fullness of joy.
So, how do I enter his presence?
Psalms 100:4 gives us a clear diagram of the doorway into his presence. I like what it says in the Passion Bible.
"You can pass through his open gates with the password of praise.
Come right into his presents with Thanksgiving.
Come, bring your thank offering to him and affectionately. Praise His beautiful name.!
How much do we praise him? And for what do we praise him?
First, in Thessalonians 5:18, in everything, give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus."
So there you go. Praise and worship God all the time for everything.
Enjoy the journey.

WE CAN WALK ON WATER IF WE KNOW WHO IS CALLING US TO COME
Among the many questions that I have been asking as a pastor is the one concerning the will of God for their personal life. "Pastor, do you think it would be God's will that I move to Cincinnati?" "Pastor, should I Mary Jane? Is that the woman that God has given me?"
The desire to know that God favors what you do makes all the difference in the outcome.
When Peter stepped out of the boat, he was in and started walking on the water. It was the result of one thing and one thing only. He knew it was Jesus who had called him to come. The storm was thick enough that he couldn't make out his features, but he recognized his voice, and when he did, he made history.
So the key to that miracle story is knowing Jesus so that you trust and rely on him when he says come to me.
To know someone requires a certain amount of intensive personal relationship with that person.
Doing that comes from a desire or an appetite to understand and learn what they know and experience.
My experience and the Scriptures tell me that you will know the Holy Spirit Jesus Christ and the Father only to the degree of your hunger and desire.
The people who followed Jesus ' scripture did it for the loaves and fishes. They didn't see him as we do: the world's savior, the Father's only begotten son. ThFather him as a miracle man who fed them food they could be satisfied with.
Even those who knew him as a healer had not received the revelation of who he is to us. To them, he was a miracle Man who could heal the sick and remove their temporary pain.
So my question to you today is, how hungry are you to know Jesus as the Father of the Father? Do you have the passion to go past the man-made restrictions that you've been taught in religious settings?
Remember, there is no ceiling to this spiritual escalator we're on. The top floor is always the Throne of God. "And in his presence, there is fullness of joy, and at his right hand is pleasures, forever, more."

RESTORATION-HOW FAR DOES IT GO?
I'm sure you've heard the gospel song pleading with God, asking if he could just make it in. Listening to it, we get the picture of someone diving through the gate of heaven, catching their coat tail as it closes. A person with that in their thinking lives a life of high anxiety, hoping and wishing that somehow God would have mercy on them and let them into his heaven.
Much of the protestant church, in its early formation, taught that you would not know you were saved until the end of time when you either went to heaven or hell. It was the influential evangelist in the early 1800s by the name of Charles Finney who brought out the mourner's bench. He invited people to come forward and kneel at that bench, and when they got up, they would know they were saved.
He was persecuted and ran out of town and, In some cases, lied about and accused by the old guard who didn't believe you could know you were saved. When that revelation of restitution and restoration came to the church, it changed the structure of our beliefs.
That's what Paul the apostle meant when he said, "I know in whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed under him against that day."
You can know with certainty that you have been restored to the Father when you open your spirit, heart, and soul to the truth of God's word.
So, how far does restoration go? The apostle Paul said beyond what you can ask or think. Today's homework: find your meditation chair and let your asking and thinking go wild, and when you're exhausted, you're just heading into God's territory of restoration.

A LIVING PICTURE OF JESUS CHRIST OUR RISEN LORD AND SAVIOR
So you want to see Jesus in the full manifestation of his glory? Then let's take a look at him through the eyes of John the revelator after the resurrection and Christ ascension to the father. After all, the last book in the Bible, the vision that John witnessed on the isle of Patmos, is called the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
There's a great majority of the body of Christ that believe that the book of revelation is all about the antichrist, Gog and Magog ,and the final days of history.
I've always thought it was a curious question why John, the revelator would send this message and vision to the churches of Asia. What would be so expedient about the churches hearing this message of something that was going to happen thousands of years in the future?.
Also, the reading of this book, and this revelation was promised to bring them hope and encouragement, and a blessing from the Lord. I think it would be something like calling the fire department with my house is on fire and they tell me they will be here in 2000 years.
What you're looking at when you read and meditate upon the book of revelation is a picture of Jesus Christ as he was when John, the revelator witnessed it. The language of the book was totally understood by the early church, because they had been raised on the signs and symbols of the Old Testament.
Come with me for a moment as I read the 10th chapter of revelations from the passion Bible as it describes Jesus Christ a mighty angel, and extremely powerful messenger. Rejoice with me as we witness Jesus Christ our risen Savior in full action.

WHO ARE YOU COMPLETING ON THIS JOURNEY OF FAITH?
Have you ever considered the cloud of witnesses mentioned in Hebrews chapters 11 and 12 as personal in your walk of faith? In Hebrews 11, we have been given a list of men and women in the old covenant who walk by faith and hope in the future of God's promises. They lived in hope without receiving the fullness of what was promised them.
In the first verse of chapter 12 of Hebrews, they are called witnesses or martyrs that surround us like a cloud. Then, the Scriptures tell us that we have a responsibility now that we live in the new covenant to fulfill their journey because of Christ's cross and resurrection.
This idea of fulfilling the life and ministry of someone who has already stepped over into eternity is a powerful thought. The writer of Hebrews is first concerned about the shift from the old covenant to the new covenant. The old covenant saints could not be fulfilled because the cross and resurrection had not happened yet. However, they walked by faith that it would happen and hoped that God was faithful to his promise.
Another way to look at this experience of fulfilling what the Saints could not fulfill intrigues me. Contrary to the theology I was raised on, I believe we can interact with the saints of old by God's direction.
If we are operating by the "spiritual rule of thumb," that is what Jesus did, we can also do because as he is, so are we in this world.
We understand that on the mount of Transfiguration, Jesus interacted with Moses and Elias, saints that had gone on before.
I also remember that when Jesus rose from the dead, over 500 saints from the former covenant were resurrected and seen by many in the city. The clouds that Jesus ascended on were the witnesses or the Saints of the old covenant going up with him.
I hear reports from spiritual leaders worldwide that I respect who interact with Enoch, Moses, David, and others.
The test of this, of course, is that everything leads to Christ.
Another way to view the fulfillment of the cloud of witnesses on the other side of the veil is in our personal lives and what God has called us to. Paul reminded Timothy that he was a generational person of faith. His grandmother had faith that she passed on to his mother. His mother's increased faith was passed on to Timothy.
Because of that, Timothy was fulfilling the life of his grandmother and his mother through his actions of faith and the power of the Holy Ghost.
So be aware that you first have the responsibility to walk in the new covenant and fulfill what the old covenant people could not.
Second, because the veil between us and the spiritual world is so thin today, God is allowing some of those witnesses to come and speak to us about the kingdom.
And thirdly, in your personal walk, you are fulfilling what your forefathers started. Your faith is a magnification, a supernatural increase of what they planted in you as spiritual seeds.

THE CHRISTMAS CACTUS
Hallelujah, we made it through Thanksgiving. Now, the next big hurdle to jump is the Christmas season. Everyone you know faces this season differently. Some great planners purchase gifts long before the season comes and stash them away for that big day.
My grandmother was like that. She had a couch in her front room with a compartment underneath, and all of us kids knew that was where the presents were for Christmas. And that was in the middle of summer.
On the other hand, some wait until the last few days and then frantically rush around trying to figure out what Uncle John wants for Christmas.
Well, some of that is in our DNA. We may be stuck with who we are because of our genes, etc. That's an opinion, not a fact.
I stood next to a grand piano yesterday, looking at the Christmas cactus. The original was taken from a very old cactus. My mother had her grand piano passed on to my sister. You could call this the Esther cactus because it only blooms once a year at Christmas.
The story of Esther is that she was chosen to be the wife of the king because of her grace and beauty. So, to prepare for that, they took one year, during which she was separated from everything else, in preparation for that grand day.
The underlying story of Esther is God's planning and how he places us in the proper place at the appropriate time to change the course of history. You and I may not change the course of nations as Esther did, but it's just as important to God that our world be also changed.
As I looked closer at this Christmas cactus, I noticed the dainty little beautiful flowers starting to bloom. Then, I looked further into the plant and saw the solid and stout branches holding the small ones.
I thought of the body of Christ and how the strong saints of God secure and hold steady the young Christian babies growing up in Christ.
Some of us only bloom occasionally, but when we do, it's beautiful, and people applaud the fact that God gave such lovely things to the world.
You may be the tender plant, the little flower on the end, or the solid branch that holds the delicate flower. The critical thing to remember is that we have all been created to bring beauty and the love of God to the world around us.
Merry pre-pre-pre-Christmas

THE PROPHETIC DREAM-HOW DOES IT WORK?
If your spiritual antennas are up, you will have noticed the rise of the mystic ministry in the nations of the world. For some believers, this would be brand new because of the need for teaching or revelation in the body of Christ at large.
However, according to the definition of the word, the shocking reality to many who sit in church and listen to weekly sermons about God and the Holy Ghost is that they are mystics themselves.
The dictionary tells us that a mystic is:
"A person who seeks by contemplation and self-surrender to obtain unity or absorption into the deity. Or who believes in the spiritual apprehension of truths that are beyond the intellect."
Sitting in our comfortable church seats on Sunday morning and listening to the teaching of Jesus and our heavenly father, we are listening to mystical revelation beyond the intellect.
The apostle Paul told us that the natural man cannot comprehend the things of the spiritual world. Why is that? To understand the mysteries of God, we must step into the world of faith, which has another name called mystical understanding.
You can't see God, but you believe in him. You believe in him because you've stepped out of your natural ability to comprehend things by touch, taste, and sight. And you have entered the world of the Mystic?
Unfortunately, many believers missed this because they relate to a mystic as a bearded, long-robed person living in a cave like the old prophets in the Testaments.
It's certainly true about some of the well-known mystics of the past. That's precisely what they did. However, the Scriptures tell us that we are all born from the same father with the same DNA and the same ability to communicate with our heavenly father through prayer, meditation, and spiritual engagement into the heavenly realms of his presence.
One of the many gateways we have available to enter that heavenly realm is our dream life. We have heard many teachings on the celebrated dreams in the Testament that brought great revelation and deliverance. Yet, somehow, theologians did not pass it on to us as modern-day believers.
A typical response when we speak of having a dream is the "pizza dream syndrome." They blame it on the fact that you had the wrong thing to eat before you went to bed, dismissing any spiritual revelation.
In this season, the body of Christ is in its time to embrace our mystical roots and the fact that we are spiritual people who can see into and enter into the very presence of the Lord in tangible ways.
Embrace your mystical heritage.

UPON THIS ROCK, WE BUILD
While listening to the recounting of our Thanksgiving memorial as a nation, these few thoughts dropped in my spirit that I want to share today about the founding of this great nation we live in.
As our forefathers came to this land, several major miracles made the difference between success and failure.
First, we are the only nation founded as a Christian nation based upon the laws of God and the Bible from its inception. We are the only nation where rulership is from the bottom up, not the top down. This is what our Bill of Rights and Constitution means: the people have a voice regarding who is in charge and who will lead us.
Another central foundation stone in this nation is property rights, with a legal paper proving to the officials that we own this land we live on.
Another unique thing was that each person could get involved in a free market, trading and making a profit for themselves.
All these things were not true in the other nations the people came from. Yet God provided us a place to plant seeds of freedom that might grow into a tree big enough to bless the world.
The first two miracles that stood out to me in the early days are so identified with God's timing that they can't be denied.
The ones who founded Jamestown in Virginia came near starvation in the first year because they did not plant crops to eat through the winter. They ended up eating rats, dung, and shoelaces, so the historians tell us.
When the winner had ended, they packed their ship up, having given up on the founding of Jamestown, and headed for home. With all practical understanding, this experiment was over.
As they got to the mouth of the Potomac River, heading into the Great Ocean, they met another ship from England with all the supplies they needed and people to help them.
Only in a two-hour window of time did God perform a miracle. Did Jamestown become the founding city of that region?
The second miracle is even more impressive of God's timing and planning. It concerns the founding of the New England area with the pilgrims.
The Native American Indian that God had pre-arranged to be the one to save them from starvation and conflict with the neighboring native tribes is a miracle story in itself. Years before he was taken captive as an enslaved person, back to England, a group of monks purchased him and taught him English and Spanish and how to read and write. Then, they gave him his freedom, and he came back to his native land, joining himself in the neighboring tribe.
He was the one who walked into their camp one day, speaking English, teaching them about the seeds that would grow best, and negotiating peace with the tribes that were around.
Because of God's timing, the founding of this nation took seed.
We are definitely built on the rock Christ Jesus.

THE POWER AND PURPOSE OF A THANKFUL HEART
Have you ever considered the incredible wonder of the world's great orchestras when they gather fifty musicians and make music together? We call it music because it is coordinated, balanced, in tune, and on time. The second thing we notice is that they all focus on one person in front of them. We call the conductor.
As long as those fifty individuals exercise their talents on various instruments and follow the conductor, the crowd will cheer and go home, amazed at the genius of the conductor.
When the natural man refers to staying in tune with the balance of the earth without realizing it, they are referring to a biblical foundational truth.
Just like that great orchestra needs a conductor, everything that functions in the world we touch and see has a conductor that keeps it on time, in balance, and tune. That conductor is Jesus Christ.
The scriptures tell us that Jesus holds everything together by the word of his power.
One of the most potent things that hindered the children of Israel as they wandered in the wilderness for 40 years was that they grumbled and complained about everything.
Our heavenly father, the conductor of this great orchestra that he created, called creation and life, continues to direct every function around us.
Our most significant discovery in life is to agree with the conductor in our words and deeds. When we do that, everything balances out, and blessings come our way.
The foundation of that agreement is a thankful heart—a heart full of gratitude and Thanksgiving. At the same time, we are rejoicing in the goodness of our heavenly father. When we do that, we balance and cooperate with what he has said about us and what he is doing for us.
Paul the apostle captured that in Romans 10:9 and 10 when he said, if you believe in your heart, and confess with your mouth, you shall be saved.
Take note that the heart is the voice of God speaking, and when you agree with that voice and say it with your mouth, you are in tune with your heavenly father, and salvation is yours.
Psalms 100:4 gives us two secret keys to enter the courts of God.
We enter the first door through praise and the second door through Thanksgiving.
I encourage you this Thanksgiving day to remember that good things always come your way when you praise and worship with a thankful heart.
Happy Thanksgiving.

WHAT DOES GOD DO WITH YOUR PRAYERS?
There is $1 million waiting for you in the bank downtown with your name on it.
To receive it, you must get off the couch, call a cab, and claim your fortune.
If you received that notice from the bank, would you see if it was real?
If, for no other reason, most of us will go for curiosity's sake alone.
Yet we have had an invitation from the Bank of Heaven to invest our prayers for a far greater and more valuable reward than just $1 million.
Jesus cried out loudly as he stood in the city's center and told the people that if they came to him, he would supply them with living water, and they would never thirst again; someone in a hot, dry country that would sound like a $1 million offer.
However, as he made that declaration, many people walked by without even taking notice, too busy to have their lives changed forever.
The whole human race has been invited to call on the name of the Lord and be saved. You and I, the believers, have been commissioned to pray to the Father in heaven that those who haven't come into the kingdom yet will come.
If we get a revelation of what prayer is and how God uses prayer, I'm sure we would be quicker and more eager to do our part in filling the golden bowls before the Throne of God.
The wonder and power of our prayer is that it is placed by the Father into a golden bowl as a sweet, smelling incense before the throne.
According to Revelation 8, Jesus, the high priest, then takes our prayers and mixes them with his prayers of intercession. Then the smoke of incense, with the prayers of the holy ones bellow up before God, from the hand of this angel. (which is Christ the High Priest)
The scriptures tell us that our prayers are put into a vile and poured out before God. Revelation also refers to the golden bowl filled to the brim with our prayers. Those prayers are then placed on the altar, and the smoke and incense fill the throne room.
The part that we have been commissioned to do is offer prayer and give our worship to the Father. He puts that prayer and worship into a container to be used at his discretion and for his desires. Your worship and prayer's sweet, smelling fragrance is to God's divine satisfaction.

WHY DOES THE TRUTH SET US FREE?
In John 8:32, the Passion Bible says, "For if you embrace the truth, it will release true freedom into your lives." Over the past decades, philosophers and freethinkers have wondered about truth. Gathering in groups, they debate with the logic of their empty understanding, trying to find their concept of it.
After the intellectuals exhaust themselves, they conclude that you have your truth, and I have mine. Let's leave it at that. Hence the confusion we live in today. And the darkness that has overcome this generation adds to the next one to come.
You and I, as believers, understand when we speak of truth, we're not speaking of philosophy or the current theories of this age. We are talking of a person, Jesus Christ.
The only reason this nation that we call home has proven to be the greatest that history has ever recorded is that it Is connected to The prayer that was spoken over this land when the first pilgrims put their feet on the sands at Plymouth Rock, declaring that this nation would spread the gospel around the world. We accomplished the impossible, leaving England as a small group of believing Christians to establish the "city on a hill."
Our forefathers founded this republic on the principles of the Holy Scriptures and Jesus Christ, the Truth.
As an example of our nation founded upon the truth from the Word of God, we have been a citadel of freedom and truth for the whole world to not only admire but also come to and find peace.
When you encounter Jesus Christ and believe in and obey his commandments, you will know the truth and be free to live a life of peace.

YOUR UNBREAKABLE MARRIAGE TO CHRIST
Tell me what church or theological stream you were raised in, and I'll tell you the level of anxiety you have about your salvation. That's a strange way to start a discussion of the most beautiful thing that could ever happen to us. To be born again by the blood of Jesus. God's dream from the beginning was always that he would bring us back into his family through Jesus Christ.
This experience we have is called by many different names. One group of people would ask you if you've ever been saved. The next group would want to define it a little closer and ask if you've been born again. Some of our Baptist brothers call it "walking the aisle" or "shaking the hand of the preacher."
Years ago, a missionary in the South Seas wrote about the natives, "running the trails with Jesus."
So you see, there are different names and ideas about what we call conversion or being brought into the family of God.
According to the apostle Paul, in Ephesians 5, Christ and the church (that's you) have been married. In that chapter, he uses the natural marriage between a man and a woman as an example of Christ and the church.
In our theological classes, we use the term "the security of the believer" to describe our confidence in the longevity of our salvation. Many of the Baptist brothers referred to it as "eternal security." Once you're saved, you're always saved.
Interestingly enough, the Pentecostal background denies that, and as a byproduct, we have a vast amount of backsliders waiting to come home.
Referring to our salvation as a marriage to Christ is biblically sound. According to Paul's teachings, we have been made one with him in the same way a man and a woman become one in their marriage.
Mark 10:9 makes this statement about marriage: what God has joined together, let no man separate. We are reassured in the Scriptures that we are in the hands of God, and no one can take us away from that.
So, as you sleep tonight, be assured that you will not lose your salvation before you wake up. And when you do wake up to the understanding that you are secure in your marriage to Christ, your journey will be filled with a different level of joy and contentment.

MOMENTARY MONARCHS AND OTHER DISAPPEARING TERRORS
In my youth, we sang a song in the church called "Turn your eyes upon Jesus."
"Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full, and his wonderful face and the things of the world will grow strangely dim in the light of his glory and grace."
That song captures the theme of my video tonight concerning the current situation of our nation and our society and how it's affecting Christians.
I have often taught the principle that you will go toward or be influenced by what you look at. This is why media outlets and even our Internet are so controlling and damning to the soul of this nation.
We are being manipulated in so many ways. This younger generation is being ripped apart by what they look at and take into their souls. The evidence of that is the high rate of suicide that is happening among them.
They have been sold a lie about the future, and even themselves, convinced they are worthless.
Psalms 73 speaks of the same condition on the day this Psalm was written. Asaph, the author of this Pslam and one of Israel's spiritual leaders, found himself discouraged and weak because of what he had his eyes on around him.
He looked at those who were wealthy, pompous, egotistical, and manipulating those who were less than them. It made him fearful of the future.
The principles of God are the same in every age that we live. It was just as accurate in Asaph Day as it is today. We look around and see the prosperity of the wicked, and the spirit of fear tells us that they will take over the world and we will be no more.
Faith becomes weakened, and we start to stumble until we turn into the sanctuary of our God and get our eyes back on his unfailing word.
What does it mean to go into the sanctuary of God?
We know that God is everywhere and is in us of a truth. So, do I go into a building, or do I find a group of people that I need to join?
Yes, and yes, but that's not enough. You can go into the most beautiful churches in your city and join a group of spiritual people, but that's not enough.
Put it this way: God himself is the sanctuary that you go into. It's simply obeying Jesus when he laid out the two commandments for us?.
Love the Lord thy God, with all thy heart and the neighbor as they self.
Keep your eyes on Jesus, and your heart will never fail you because He will draw you to Himself.

YOU ARE AS CLOSE TO THE FATHER AS YOU WANT TO BE
In the early days of our evangelistic travels, Arlis and I found ourselves on the East Coast of this great country. With a few days between commitments, we joined two of our best friends and headed for the Big Apple. New York City. Times Square. The Statue of Liberty. The Empire State Building. New York pizza.
And at the end of the day, Broadway and the hit show Evita.
What a whirlwind day that was, so much so it's still clear in my memory. As we stood in line at the ticket booth, I realized our limited finances as gospel ministers required us to purchase the ticket on the top balcony.
As we were ascending the levels of balconies, I knew now why they called it the "nosebleed section." My eyes were younger then, but I still couldn't recognize the faces I was looking at on the stage below me.
The sad point of this whole story is I wanted to be closer to the performers, but I couldn't afford the ticket.
The good news is that the ticket has already been paid for you to come as close as you want to your heavenly Father's throne and fellowship with him daily.
The Scriptures tell us that Jesus made a way where they had not been a way before. Men and women before the cross could not boldly come before the throne of God like Paul declares we can do.
Only after the resurrection could Jesus tell his disciples to ask largely from the Father, in the name of Jesus, and they would receive what they asked for.
There are no excuses not to be as close as you want to be to the Father of all spirits and the Savior Jesus Christ. After all, in Matthew 7:7, Jesus said, "Ask and keep on asking and it will be given to you seek and keep on seeking, and you will find knock, and keep on knocking at the door will be open for you."
Don't let anyone discourage you from having a private personal relationship with the Father, so wonderfully intense and sweet that you won't have words to express the joy of it all.
No one is in front of you; go on in. You're next in line.

FAMILIARITY BREEDS CONTEMPT
My father was a 'sage,' and he always quoted something from the Proverbs of Solomon to support his wisdom. Our family established two repetitive habits we faithfully did all my young life.
Throughout the day, my mother or father would read the Proverbs for that day. There are 31 chapters in Proverbs, and most months have 31 days. Our apostle, dad's pastor, as a young man, taught us that spiritual activity.
The second thing we did religiously was never take a trip in the car without quoting the 91st Psalm: "He that dwells in the secret place of the most high shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty."
"Remove your foot from your neighbor's house lest he become weary of you."
I can't tell you how many times I've heard those proverbs quoted to me. They have saved me a lot of heartache over the years.
It seems that Jesus had the same problem in Matthew 13. After having a very successful teaching time by the seashore, in the first part of Matthew 13, he decided to go home.
As it turns out, the Home folks rejected him because he was just too familiar to them. Interestingly enough, they were stunned, dazed, amazed, taken back, and blown away by his wisdom and revelation.
In any normal circumstance, you would think that would have locked them into believing God and his messenger, Jesus.
No, it didn't. And the reason why? Most people make a common mistake when it comes to spiritual things versus natural things.
They were looking at the natural source for his wisdom and revelation instead of the spiritual source.
They said, " We know this guy. He's from our hometown. He doesn't even have a degree in theology, nor has he been to the seminary. "
I'll bet you I've heard that before in some of your church or private experiences. Church people are as guilty as anyone else by judging a man or woman of God by their age, their height, their degree of education, or where they're from—shame on us.
It's tuneup time, folks. It's time to tune into the spiritual world and listen to what God says about his kingdom and our future development.

FIVE THINGS MY MOTHER TAUGHT ME
NUMBER ONE, SON, BE KIND AND FORGIVING.
"And be kind one to another tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake has forgiven you." The Scriptures tell us that you must show yourself friendly if you want friends. In so many words, it's telling us that kindness attracts people to you.
Forgiveness toward others is the bedrock principle of Christian living; without it, you will crash and burn quickly. The scriptures tell us that if we forgive, we will be forgiven; if we don't forgive, we get bound up in our soul until we let forgiveness flow toward others.
NUMBER TWO. SHARE YOUR TOYS
Generosity is contagious in the Scriptures. They tell us that if we give to others, more will be given back to us by others. It goes on to say to us that the liberal soul will become fat. That's Bible talk for becoming prosperous.
Something happens to the personality and the emotions of a person who clutches everything to himself. After a while, people shy away from personal contact because they know you're not a generous person.
NUMBER THREE. BUTTON YOUR COAT
When you get onto a commercial airliner, the stewardess first tells you that if the oxygen mask comes down, put it on you before you put it on your children. Why? Because if you're not safe, you can't rescue someone else and save them.
Take care of yourself. Eat right, sleep right, and get plenty of exercise so that you will live long, Enjoy life, and serve the Lord well.
NUMBER FOUR. BRUSH YOUR TEETH
How do we prepare for health and success in the future? We start with the small things, such as brushing our teeth before we go to bed. These small, hidden habits shape our lifestyle.
Scriptures tell us it's the little foxes that spoil the vine. On the day the parable was written, they had vineyards around the palace. Little foxes that no one could see would lay in the shade on a hot day and nibble away at the vine, killing the entire plant.
NUMBER FIVE. DON'T HIT YOUR SISTER
You learn to respect women in the home, and you start with your sister and your mother. If you hit your sister, you'll hit your wife. Those are just the principles of life, and you form your habits early. You will treat your wife and other women like you have been trained to treat your sister.
Those five simple instructions given to a young man will shape his life forever.
Thank your mother.

WILD WHEAT AND ANGELS-WHAT DOES IT HAVE TO DO WITH US?
Hidden secrets abound. The spirit of revelation is given, and we begin to see the kingdom of God develop before our eyes. Why does one person understand the mystery of God and the spiritual world while the one beside him doesn't?
Is it a matter of intellect? Or is there a more profound spiritual truth that we may miss in this explanation?
The Scriptures tell us God desires that all men and women be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth. Yet the Scriptures also say you cannot come to the Father unless the Holy Spirit draws you.
If that sounds like a mystery, we have a good starting place for our discussion tonight.
The 13th chapter of Matthew is one of the most remarkable sections of the teachings that Jesus gave us in the Gospels. Jesus was dealing with two distinct groups of people: the mass crowds that he taught by the seashore and his disciples that he taught in a private house.
Matthew 13 contains his most famous parables: The Farmer and the Seed, the Good Wheat and the Wild Wheat that the Angels collected, the Hidden Treasures, the wild wheat the angels collected, the hidden treasures, and the parable of the Fishing Net.
The parables concern the kingdom of God, yet none of the large crowd understood what he was saying.
The disciples took him aside to ask questions about the parables, and he revealed the kingdom of God to them.
He told his disciples, "I will speak to you in allegories. I will reveal secrets that have been concealed since before the foundation of the world."
In verse 17, he continued, "Many prophets and godly people yearned to see these days of miracles that you've been favored to see. They would have given anything to hear the revelation you've been favored to hear."
Because you and I live on this side of the cross and resurrection, we are favored to hear the revelations that God is giving to this generation. And because of that, he is preparing us for a supernatural expansion of the visible and tangible kingdom of God that we live in today.
Some call it the third great awakening. Others refer to it as a supernatural move of God on the Earth. I call it the answer to Matthew 6: "Lord, let it be on earth as it is in heaven."

FRESH BREAD EVERY MORNING
The scent of fresh, glazed donuts wafts through the windows of our church on Sunday morning. Suddenly, I was hungry for one of those beautiful creations. Hurry up, get through with your sermon, Dad, I thought as I visualized one of those sticky, sweet, luscious glaze donuts in my hand. As far as I was concerned, church couldn't get over soon enough.
All these years later, I can still see that donut shop across the street from the church and smell those fresh morsels of goodness they produce every morning. My buddy and I would stand outside the open door and watch them bake and dip those donuts, just hoping they would have pity on us and give us one.
The moment the spirit of God dropped that thought in my heart today about fresh bread every morning, I was instantly taken back to Long Beach, California, at 1800 E. Anaheim. And that wonderful donut shop.
Three decades later, Arlis and I and our little boy Tony were in Wilmington, California, on a tremendous pastoral team led by my uncle Herbert Ezell.
At the time, he was at the unimaginable age of 60 with a team of young pastors in their 20s and 30s. Pastor Ezell had a hectic schedule, yet He was faithful to be at the church every morning somewhere around 6 o'clock for prayer.
It frustrated us young stallions that we couldn't get ahead of him in those early morning sessions. He always got there first. One day, I asked him how he managed to stay so energized with all the things he was involved in.
He gave me a spiritual nugget I had carried most of my life when he "said daily freshness, George daily freshness."
I believe there's a reason why God gave us 24 hours a day. It provides us with an opportunity to start fresh and new every morning.
The Scriptures tell us that the presence of God and the grace of God are new every morning, also. Sometime later, my apostle and friend Norman Clear told me he stayed in the bedroom on Monday morning after a busy Sunday until his spirit was renewed in the presence of the Lord.
I encourage you to have fresh bread every morning.

I AM THE OLD OX- I FEAR NO EVIL
King David said in the Psalms that he was once a young man but now was old.
In that time, he had never seen the righteous forsaken or his seed begging for bread. This was the observation of an old ox.
During the Bible days, they would train a new ox in the discipline of pulling the plow. They would put that young 400-pound ox in the same yolk as a 2000-pound old ox. The old ox knew the system, understood the commands of the master, and was dedicated to the purpose that the master had in mind.
The young ox still had it in his mind to run and play. But now he was yoked to an old ox, much stronger than he. Now, instead of going, only the young ox had to do with the old ox was obeying the master's direction.
This system of discipline continued until the young ox was trained to follow the direction of the master so that the job could be completed.
I quoted David's Psalm when I was 20 years old, thinking that I had arrived at some plateau of wisdom, only to discover I was still the young ox.
What did God do?
He put me in the same yoke of an old oxen. Better referred to as mature men and women of God, who became mentors and trainers as I grew up in the Lord.
At one point in my journey, I had been traveling as an evangelist for 15 years when God yolked me down with a man of God. For the next two years, wherever the old ox went, I had to go, even though, at times, I disagreed with his decisions.
In those two years of being tied together, I was being trained for the next 40 years. At the time, I had no idea what God had in mind; thank the Lord he did.
Over the following decades, I could hear the voice of the old ox as I went through situations that needed wisdom and understanding. Somehow, in those discipline years, God worked into my spirit, the spirit of the old ox.
So today, I can say, like David of old, that now I am an official Old ox.

DON'T ALLOW ANYTHING TO DIMINISH THE JESUS IN YOU
Some years ago, a man came to me in my dreams. Tapping on my forehead with his finger, his face very close to mine, speaking loudly, he said,
Don't allow anything to diminish the Jesus you have right in there.
Well, I paid attention, knowing that the Spirit of God was allowing that to happen to improve my sensitivity to Christ in me, the hope of glory.
It's not unusual for us, current-day Christians, to consider ourselves more spiritual than the Israelites of old. We easily criticize how quickly they forgot the miracles of deliverance and supply that God gave them more than once.
Yet, we find them complaining, criticizing their leaders, and even turning back to idols.
For you and I to stay constantly aware of who we are and that the fullness of the Godhead dwells in you and I bodily takes daily exercise.
When Paul referred to "dying daily," he referred to the sacrifice it takes to put down the old thinking and the religious view we formally carried. The Scriptures referred to that as scales on our eyes like a blindfold. The only way that can be removed is by a revelation of the righteousness of Christ in us.
In Colossians 1:27, the apostle Paul tells us that is the hope that we have, knowing that Christ is in us, the hope of glory.
There remains nothing outside of that revelation that Christ lives in us to give us confidence and the correct compass heading as we continue to go forward in the kingdom of God.
My prayer for you today is that if there are any remaining covers over your eyes from former religious or manufactured ideas about God, they would be removed today.
Oh, that we would continually be able to say what is quoted in the Scriptures:
"I see the Lord high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple."
Let that picture be in your mind's eye continually.

I AM LISTENING TO HEAVENS CHATTER- AND IT'S ALL ABOUT VICTORY
In recent years, we have learned much about the ability of modern technology to listen to our communication systems. It can be a phone conversation or something we put out on the Internet. Some programs have been created to survey all types of communication and pick up certain words that would trigger investigations.
When Solomon said there was nothing new under the sun, we could apply that truth to our age. We who are alive today have the same ability that the prophets of old enjoyed and listened to conversations through the power and grace of the Holy Ghost.
We all remember the story of the prophet who could hear the conversations in the enemy's planning room and would pass on that information to the king of Israel.
In the World of believing saints today, many are listening to conversations on all levels through the Spirit of God. It is not uncommon for one of our well-known prophets to have mysteries and secrets revealed to them to stop it through prayer and prophecy.
There are untold stories of men and women of God who have reported such conversations to our military leaders, etc. Of a certainty, nothing is new under the sun.
On another level, the multiplied stories of men and women of God today who are visiting heaven and bringing back reports of what God is talking about. Listening into the conversation of God's counsel is possible through the Holy Spirit empowering us as we walk as sons and daughters of God in this modern age. The conversations we are hearing in God's planning room are all about victory. What our heavenly father starts, he also finishes.
My encouragement to you today is to be careful who you listen to. A multitude of voices come by you every day, and most of them are filled with fear and predictions of doom.
The Scriptures tell us to guard our heart, for out of it are the issues of life. We do that by tuning in to that heavenly channel where God speaks to us as people of God: direction, revelation, encouragement, and victory.

THEY WHISPER IN THE NIGHT-ANGELIC VISITATIONS
Be careful who you allow to speak into your ear. What you listen to will go into your spirit, and you will turn toward it. The Scriptures tell us to guard our heart, for out of it are the issues of life. When the heart is mentioned in the Scriptures, it refers to the very core of who we are. According to the word of God, words are the most significant influence that shapes and directs our lives.
It's a common understanding that the purpose of sleep is to be refreshed and restored to our physical body. It gives our whole system time to re-group and even heal as we rest at night.
However, the most significant purpose of that night's sleep is so that our soul and spirit are ministered to as well. Seeing that our spirit is the generator that keeps everything else on track, it's critical that we feed our spirit the right things for strength and wisdom.
Among the many things that the angels have been commissioned to do, such as guards, guides, and defenders of the Saints, is the responsibility of carrying messages from the
Father to us.
In advertising, they say that a whisper is more effective than a shout when trying to gain customers' attention. They could have discovered those secrets by knowing God used the same method.
It is not unusual for God or the angels to whisper to us to see if we're listening. Anyone will stop and listen if a loud boom catches their attention. But the challenge for you and I as a believer is to be so attentive to the voice of God and the message that he sends that we will even hear a whisper.
Most often, when an angel enters a room, there is a slight attention-getter, like a flicker of light or a slight noise to catch your attention. If you're in the seeking mode, you will hear it.
This is why the Scriptures tell us to set our attention on things above and not on things below. Be very sensitive, dear ones, for the sounds of heaven are always there.

JESUS RIPPED THE HEAVENS OPEN WITH THE CROSS
I am suspicious of the school systems today on how much detail they give our students to our history and the development it took to get where we are.
How many of our youth, and even our adults, remember what the English Mag-na-car-ta was all about?
In the year 1215, King John was forced by the land barons to sign a compact guaranteeing them more freedom, giving them the right to voice their opinions, etc. It was 100 years later when that compact went into force, changing the whole political and social climate in England.
From the seed of that compact, we gained our freedom as an American nation and have enjoyed over 200 years of self-rule.
What is part of the political confusion today is that a mass of our citizens have no idea what it means to be under the bondage of a dictator.
The American experiment is one of a kind that has never happened in the history of the world.
But another compact or covenant, signed and delivered, brought the entire world out of darkness into light. None of us can imagine what it would be like living before the cross, where the evil spirits and the gods of the nations ruled it with a hand of terror and punishment.
It had been 400 years since the Israelites had heard the prophets give a word from God himself.
The Bible states that there was darkness on the land.
Matthew 4 tells us that the people sit in darkness, and a great light comes.
The cross of Jesus Christ ripped an eternal hole in the heavens that will never close. When that happened, the gods of this earth came under the domination of the name of Jesus and lost their power to rule over the human race.
The entire human civilization came under the bondage and the curse of sin when Adam committed high treason. The world and all that were in it lost their innocence.
But praise God, another man came called the second Adam Jesus Christ. When he went to the cross and died for us, we died with him and rose again to new life. The entire human race, under the curse, suddenly, by the action of Jesus Christ, became innocent again and was returned to the Father's heart.
Jesus said he would make a way where there has been no way. He did it with the cross.
ENJOY YOUR FREEDOM!

THE TWO MOST INFLUENTIAL MEN IN HISTORY
If you said Adam and Jesus, you are absolutely right.
The axis of human history pivots on both of these men. Both of them were given a covenant with a command and a promise.
In Genesis 1:26 and 27, God said, let us make man in our image and give them rulership authority over the creation.
IN LUKE 418, JESUS SAID THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS UPON ME BECAUSE HE HAS ANOINTED ME TO PREACH THE GOSPEL TO THE POOR. HE HAS SENT ME TO HEAL THE BROKENHEARTED TO PREACH DELIVERANCE TO THE CAPTIVES, AND RECOVERING OF SIGHT TO THE BLIND, TO SET AT LIBERTY THEM THAT ARE BRUISED TO PREACH THE ACCEPTABLE YEAR OF THE LORD.
The entire world was subject to sin when Adam committed high treason against God and was driven from the garden. The virus of sin affected every human because they were affected by the virus of disobedience.
The reason Jesus is referred to as the second Adam is because he was sent to, first of all, fulfill what Adam did not finish. When Jesus was on the cross and said, "It is finished ." it was his final statement before he gave his spirit to the Father. The finished thing was Adam's covenant, fulfilled by the second Adam, Jesus Christ.
In the book of Romans, the fifth chapter tells us that one man, Adam, brought death, and one man, Jesus Christ, brought life forever more. Adam was disobedient, and death followed. Jesus was obedient and brought life back to the human race.
Just as sure as sin came upon all men because of Adams's fall.
Righteousness came upon all men because of the obedience of Jesus, which brought us eternal life.

WHY DO WE PARTAKE OF THE BODY AND BLOOD OF JESUS?
For those of us who have been longtime members of the community of faith, we understand the terms, the Lord's table, and communion. This practice has continued as long as the church has been functioning since the ascension of Jesus Christ. On the final night Jesus was with his disciples, he ate bread with them and commissioned them to eat his body and drink his blood.
It's no wonder that in the areas where Christianity functions, they called them cannibals, assuming they were drinking blood and eating human flesh.
I have participated in the communion ceremony hundreds of times over my life, yet each time I open up my spirit to this subject, I hear and receive more revelation.
Take some time to read again John six, starting with the 51st verse.
Then add to your reading First Corinthians 11, 23, to the end of the chapter.
I am convinced that if you do, the spirit of revelation will open up some incredible new insight into what Jesus meant when he said, unless you eat of my body and drink my blood, you have no part of me.
The emphasis in John Six that Jesus shares with his disciples is that each time they eat food and drink, they should remember and celebrate what Jesus accomplished through his body and blood. The practice of communion that we have once a month or once a week on a Sunday morning has taken away from the meaning of what Christ meant in that last supper.
He was not telling us to set up a traditional communion service for the church. He told us to remember why he died, who he died for, and what it made us into every time we take a bite of food.
That's how continuous our refreshing of our faith should be. This is not a religious ceremony. Jesus gave us a simple tool to keep our faith sharp and before our eyes and hearts at all times.
Each time you take a bite of food, remember the body of Christ and what it did for you. Each time you take a drink, remember the blood of Christ and how powerful it is to redeem you and bring you to your sonship.
That's what real communion is.

JUDGMENT, WRATH, AND SEPARATION HAVE BEEN TAUGHT-YET JESUS REUNITED US AT THE CROSS
Where did the statement come from that reflects the attitude of too many people worldwide? "Hellfire and brimstone." If you were raised in most churches in the last century, you would know exactly where that came from. The picture of God came across the pulpits of our Christian world.
Too many of us got saved because we didn't want to go to hell. Many more of us stayed away from the off-limits that the church had set for us because we didn't want God to cut us out of the family again.
If you think that's extreme, then you're blessed.
Religion of any kind that has been altered by man's idea of who God is puts on a burden that no one can carry for a long. As one raised in the church, I could say that I knew more about sermons on backsliding than sermons on who I was in Christ and overcoming.
However, gradually, God begins to crack open the revelation of his Grace to us. As the generations matured, he revealed himself even more. Unfortunately, you can always depend, no matter what season of the church you may have been raised in, that there would be resistance to the subsequent revelation of truth.
At the turn of the 1900s, the early holiness movement resisted the Pentecostal movement. The Pentecostal movement opposed the latter rain movement. And Both of them resisted the charismatic movement.
When what we call the faith movement broke into our lives. It was like a fresh breath of air, and God gave us another step to see further than we'd ever seen.
Then, here comes the grace movement, and resistance started again. In the Scriptures, faith and Grace seem to be team members in this beautiful kingdom that God has called us to. In all reality, you can't have one without the other.
The only thing that separates us from God is a mind filled with unbelief and doubt. Because God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believes in him shall not perish.

YOU ARE THE GREATEST IDEA GOD EVER HAD
Recently, on one of my ministry trips, I was in a house with corroded water pipes. You could taste it when you took a drink and often see the results in the glass. To solve the problem, we purchased a container with a filter so that when we drank our water, it was pure again.
The Scriptures that are contained in our modern Bibles are referred to as the water of life. Unfortunately, those scriptures have come to us through vessels, i.e., pipelines, that can be contaminated by human reasoning and religion. The result has produced generations of Christians who only see God and the work of the cross through the filter of other men's opinions instead of the spirit of revelation.
The result is that generations of believing Christians have a skewed picture of who they are in Christ and who God is as their Father. The emphasis of sin in the human race has been magnified to a place where its indelibility stained the believer, even after conversion.
Our Western theology repeatedly tells us we are all sinners saved by grace. Out of those old pipelines of reasoning comes the attitude and the misrepresentation of what happened at the cross in the resurrection. When filtered through the complete work that Christ did on the cross for us, we have been made new creatures. All things have been passed away, and all things have become new.
We are not sinners saved by grace that person has died with Christ on the cross.
That person has been buried with Christ in the tomb. That person was risen in the newness of life and now sits in a heavenly place in Christ Jesus.
You are the greatest idea God ever had.
It started in the recesses of eternity past when he declared let us make mankind in our image, and let him have a rule and dominion.
The climax of that desire in God's heart was fulfilled in Christ when he went to the cross, rose from the dead, and ascended to the Father again.
We have been made complete in him. The former conduct of past generations no longer stains us. We have been translated into the kingdom of his dear son.
You are the greatest idea God ever had. Enjoy your new life.

MERCY IS OUR NEW CURRENCY-MERCY TRIUMPHS OVER JUDGMENT
I've got a question for you today. Why is it that a majority of the church seems to be so anxious for us to get out of here and go to heaven? When challenges come and bad things happen, outcomes the dusty sermons on the end of the EarthEarth, the coming of the lord, and the rapture.
It's starting to pop up on the Internet again; prominent speakers in the nation are predicting the end of time and the church. They revive all the text proofs that have convinced them that there's no hope for us, so let's leave quickly.
One of the advantages of hanging around for a while, as I have, is to witness this cycle many times in the last several decades. The antichrist has come and gone dozens of times since I was a kid. Yet here we are still, planting seeds and harvesting men and women with the gospel of Christ.
What did David do when he showed up at the battlefield when Goliath had Israel hiding in caves? Did he say all is lost? Let's give up and die. No, he did not. He reminded Goliath who his God was and what he would do with him. Then he ran toward the problem, not away from it.
The two great commands God gave to his creation, men and women, are that they become dominant and forceful, multiply themselves, and reflect heaven on Earth. Genesis One describes the kind of man and woman that God was creating. Mark 16 directs those men and women on how to deal with their future through the power of Christ. Nowhere in those two commands is a provision to run for your life because we have no hope.
Now is the time to speak Mercy into the situation that we are in because Mercy always triumphs over judgment.

THE BIBLE IS NOT THE MEAL IT'S THE MENU
A few days ago, on this program, I talked about looking through my old Bibles and being inspired by the notes I made in the flyleaf. In doing that program, I took a picture of 17 Bibles I've managed to keep from the 65 years I've been active in the ministry. Many of them are worn out, and pages are falling apart—some I set aside for a different translation.
I love the Bible. It is the foundation of our Christian life in our relationship with God. However, somewhere along the journey, I discovered that the Bible was not the meal but the menu. The Bible is a dead book without God's spirit involved as you read and meditate. The Scriptures tell us that the letter kills us, but the spirit makes us alive.
Professors worldwide in various universities and higher learning centers teach the Bible through the eyes of the unconverted. To those professors, it is history or poetry, and most of it isn't very clear to them.
Unfortunately, too many Christians read the Bible in somewhat the same way. When Paul received the revelation of Jesus Christ and who he was to us, he made a bold, interesting statement. First, he said he wanted to avoid going back and interacting with the apostles so they would tell him about the historical Jesus. He was interested in something other than the repetitive pictures of Jesus feeding the 5000 or healing the sick.
He commented that he didn't want to know Jesus after the flesh.
When the gospels tell us about the life and ministry of Jesus, there's something behind that story that is greater than the fact he fed the 5000 and healed the sick. The more significant message is that he completed the desires of the Father by fulfilling the Old Testament covenant and preparing for the New Testament covenant. The acts of his miracles were not just to be studied in themselves, but they pointed as a menu does toward more incredible things.
Those more incredible things for Jesus were his preparation for the cross and the resurrection. Everything we see him do in the New Testament points toward the activity that changed history: his sacrifice for mankind. And his resurrection proves his deity.
I love the Bible, but I look through the page past the ink to the Holy Spirit's message that it gives to me.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF PROPHECY?
Questions abound both in the church and outside of the church. What is the purpose of prophecy, some ask? Oddly enough, there seems to be more of an openness to the spiritual world, such as prophecy, than there is in the broad church itself.
For those outside of the church, prophecy has another name; some call it terret cards. Another name would be Ouija board or a séance. All of these have to do with the occult world. However, the underlying attraction to this is a desire to look into the spiritual world and see what's coming down the road.
Have you ever wondered why the human race desires to look into the spiritual? Every tribe and group of people in history has always had something spiritual that they looked into. They do because we have all come out of the bosom of God the Father and desire to return to where we came from: the spiritual world.
When Jesus entered the human race, he came to reveal the Father and to show the world where the human race came from and where they were going. Jesus was a living, walking prophecy. Everywhere he went, and everything he said was the fulfillment of something a prophet in the Old Testament declared about him.
So, one of the purposes of prophecy is to have a revelation of the future and God's destiny and purpose for us.
Biblical prophecy, sanctioned by God himself, is not fortunetelling, nor is it the Ouija board or the séance. The spirits that communicate through those systems do not know the Father.
The prophecy that you and I are involved in as sons and daughters of God is powered by the Holy Spirit and sanctioned by God himself. This is why, according to Ephesians 4 and 11, a prophet is one of the five gifts God gave the church.
Yet he did not regulate prophecy to a single office. He gave it to the body of Christ also. You and I, as believers, have a mandate from God to prophesy. That is to speak forth the purposes of God into your generation, and as you do, you are creating the platform for God to set up his kingdom on and rule and reign therein.

DARKNESS IS NOT A FORCE-IT'S THE ABSENCE OF LIGHT
Do a simple experiment with me. Go into a dark room and find the light switch. Now, Flip the switch and listen closely. Did you hear any resistance, any voices saying I am not leaving this time?
No, you didn't. Because darkness is not a force, it's just the absence of light.
Light has always been the dominant force since God pronounced it with his very voice. He said in Genesis One let light be, and light has been the dominant force ever since.
Matthew's fourth chapter tells us that those who sat in darkness saw a great light when Jesus came into the world. Light constantly expels darkness.
It's not unusual to hear teachers and authors magnifying the power of the devil and darkness to the degree that it overcomes light. Despite how the teacher and author intended that result, it still affects those who take it in.
The record of Jesus's death and resurrection is well-established. The testimony of why he came to this earth to deal with death, sin, and separation from God is clear. He overcame death, hell, and the grave. That includes the power of darkness, which was done away with when he took the authority away from Satan.
The only reason that darkness becomes a superpower in anyone's life is because of blindness to the reality of who you and I are because of what Christ did at his death, resurrection, and ascension to the Father.
That does not change when circumstances in our life look dark or fearful.
There is no change in God's opinion of you when you fail or fall in your journey. The only reason that may affect you is that you become blind to the fact that you have been redeemed and are a son of God.
That's what the light of God is; it has illuminated that you have been brought back to your genesis, the beginning of your life, which is found in God.
The scriptures tell us that we have light, and we are to let it shine so those around us may see the glory of God.
All light originated in the Father; we are his extension to this earth.

SPIRITUAL ADRENALINE
The starting gun fires with a bang, and 12 runners leap into the race.
Plans have been made and carried out for years so that each individual here would be in this contest. Practice and practice again until the body is ready to run the race to win. After all that has been done to prepare, there's just one thing missing: an ingredient that will give them the ability to succeed.
The missing ingredient is adrenaline.
Adrenaline in the natural body is held in reserve until it is needed. The term that is used is "fight or flight." Both of those things need adrenaline to make it happen.
That mysterious ingredient in the body kicked in when the gun went off, and the muscles fired off with superpower.
So it is in the spiritual world and the life that you live as a son of God.
It's called spiritual adrenaline.
Jesus said to his disciples that they would receive power after the Holy Ghost came upon them. ( ACTS 1:8) that power is God's spiritual adrenaline called the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit God manifested on earth in the lives of those who receive.
It is heavenly adrenaline—the power to do.
Jesus told his disciples in John 14 that he would come again in the form of Holy Spirit; when he did, they would remember what he had taught them. Jesus said that the spirit of God would teach them all things.
Wrap your mind around that statement if you can.
Those who believe we have received the Holy Spirit as they did in the Book of Acts speak in tongues and prophesy. When we preach, we talk about the Holy Spirit's unction, which gives us the ability to preach under the anointing.
Yet few of us have stepped into that believing realm that Jesus promised. that the Holy Spirit will teach us all things.
All things?
How could that be? But remember, Jesus is the one who came up with that statement, and we have committed ourselves to believe what he says.
I challenge you in this new day that God has given you to allow the spiritual adrenaline, the Holy Spirit, to be released in your everyday life. Because the Holy Spirit has come to teach you all things and bring all things to remembrance that Jesus has taught.
BIG RACE AHEAD!

TREASURED NOTES FROM MY OLD BIBLES
Walking with the Father through the life he has given us is a hoot. There's never a dull moment. I've discovered over these decades that I have enjoyed his fellowship and that he is a happy God. Some traditional theology has tried to convince the church that he is mad half the time, looking for something to crush us with. Nothing could ever be farther from the truth.
The key verse that shows his attitude toward those he has created is John 3:16. Why would God start loving the world so much that he gave his son as a sacrifice and yet end up trying to find ways to destroy us? The fact is he is a happy God and loves to have fun with his children.
Yesterday the Father said to me, let's have some fun. I want you to collect all of your old Bibles and go through the notes you wrote to yourself on the flyleafs because I want to speak to you from the past.
OK, if you say so, Lord.
So I collected 17 of my old Bibles, the ones I could find on my shelf.
My sisters, who were evangelists at the time, gave me the earliest Bible I preserved on May 10, 1958. They were conducting a great revival campaign in Coos Bay, Oregon, and invited me to come and help.
My sister Joanne writes to me on the flyleaf of the Bible;
Only one life will soon be passed; only what's done for Christ will last.
Read your Bible and pray every day, and you will always be on top for Jesus.
Work for him while it is yet day, for the night comes when no man can work. Philippians 1:21 Your sister, Joanne
I didn't get very far into the stack of Bibles because of the notes, prophecies, and scriptures I came across. Most of them, I had forgotten because of the time that had elapsed since I wrote them. I could hear the Father laughing at my surprise or my emotional response to something I had made a note about.
Our life is a treasure that God has given us. We must remember his goodness because that's what draws us to his heart daily.

MANIFESTING YOUR HIDDEN TREASURE
The history of mankind is filled with stories of hidden treasures and the mysteries behind them. Even the mention of hidden treasure stirs something in the hearts of most of us. In every age, someone was searching for the secrets of those rich treasures buried somewhere on the map.
From the supposed buried treasures of the Pirates to the rumors of Gold buried in the hills of Arizona. The thought of it drove men crazy, even to the point of giving their lives trying to find secret riches.
The apostle Paul talks about a hidden treasure placed within you, and I called Christ himself or the light—second Corinthians. 4:5 gives us an insight into the meaning of that treasure called the light of God. Verse 6 tells us it was hidden there all the time.
In Galatians 4:19, the apostle Paul describes a two-tier approach to the maturing of those he described as his spiritual children.
First of all, he said that he birthed them through his gospel.
The second thing he did, which is equally essential, is travailing for them until Christ is formed in them.
This is a clear description of what God has done for mankind. The gospel reveals Christ and the intercessory prayers of the Saints, mature Christ, in his complete revelation, of who he is to us.
In the original text, sin means to be without form or your allotted portion.
That is the picture Jesus described for them in the Prodigal Son story.
The son of the father lost his portion. That was the sin he was in. He needed to remember who he was. But when he got his mind right and recognized who his father was again. He received his portion back.
The Scriptures tell us; let this mind be in you that was also in Jesus Christ.” He understood who he was and what his purpose was on earth.

THE SEED IS IN THE GROUND
I love to chew on the word of God. After all, it's referred to as milk, bread and meat. Those are natural things that provide nourishment and give us life-giving energy. So because the word of God is referred to as milk, bread, and meat, we can be assured that if we eat and digest the word of God in our spirit, it will give us life-giving strength.
It's promised to give us life forevermore—eternal life.
With that in mind, let me ask you a question. Have you taken a scripture lately or perhaps a series of scriptures and meditated upon them until it went from milk to meat? That particular pattern of studying is not only experienced by "super spiritual" people; it's meant for all believers to experience.
Here's a scripture to consider meditating upon and asking the Holy Spirit for revelation. Ecclesiastes 12: 6-7.
Today, in the video, I want to talk about the seeds God has planted in his excellent ground. There are two parables that Jesus gave us that are well known for teaching about seeds and harvest or return from investment.
Matthew 25 gives us the example of three servants. The master gave them money to invest so that they would have an increase or a harvest from the seeds they planted.
Mark 4 is a well-known discussion of the farmer who cast the seed on different grounds. Each place where the seed was cast gave a different result until it came to the good ground that gave a 100-fold return.
Take a minute to look at the bigger picture through God's perspective.
When God created you and I, he put a seed in us, called our spirit. That's the treasure he put in us, and he expects to get a return for it.
What activates that seed so it will grow to maturity?
The message of the kingdom: the word of God.
This is why Paul gave us that description in Romans 10: 9-10 that the word he preached brings us alive in Christ. The seed of God is already in you. It just needs the water of the word to bring it alive.
This is why we preach the gospel to all men and women that God has released them from the curse, forgiven them, and brought them back to his loving care.
Jesus said that you will have eternal life when you believe who I am.
Think about that.

THE PURPOSE OF OUR DREAM LIFE
If you have been in the Christian World very long, you have no doubt heard someone make this comment about dreams. "Well, dearie, that's just too much pizza before you go to bed." That limited understanding of the Spirit World has caused the church to be so far behind in its revelation of how God speaks and deals with us.
Dreams and visions are a serious part of God's tools for guiding and directing his children. As we journey through this experience we are having on Earth. When they are ignored or slandered, it puts blinders on the body of Christ to see their future and to have timely and clear directions from the Holy Spirit.
Take note of these simple facts about dreams and visions connected to the scriptures and the human race.
Every one of us experiences one to three hours of dream time every night. Just because you don't remember doesn't mean you're not experiencing it.
We spent 3 to 10 years of our life dreaming.
At 70 years of age, you have dreamed 76,650 hours.
At 80 years of age, you have dreamed 87,600 hours.
That's a lot of interaction with the spirit world.
Think about this for a moment.
The New Testament begins with five dreams and two visions.
And it ends with the Book of Revelation, the most significant documented vision in the Bible.
Without dreams and visions, we may not know our beginning and ending.
After all, 200 references in the Scriptures to dreams and visions give instructions and directions to the people of God.
With that in mind, ask the Lord to open up your understanding so you may hear and see what he has in store for you.

THE OPEN DOOR TO HEAVENLY PLACES
The mission that Jesus was assigned to by the Father when he came to earth had many dimensions. His mission was not just to die on the cross and rise from the dead. It was the first to fulfill the Old Testament covenant that Adam failed in. His earthly ministry reflected the fulfillment of the covenant that Adam had received from the Lord. That's what Jesus meant while hanging on the cross when he said, "It is finished. "
Adam was given dominion and rule over the earthly things. He was to dominate, cultivate, and fill the earth with people like himself.
When Jesus came as the second Adam, everything he did was under that covenant. He was not functioning as God. He was serving as a man following and faithful to his Father.
When he challenged us to pick up the mantle of faith and do greater things than he did, it was because we have the same connection to his Father.
We were born of the same Father, with the same DNA and commission.
When Jesus said he was "the way, the truth, and the life," he declared an open door for us to enter into the heavenly realms and be welcomed back to the Father's heart. In the book of John 14, 15, and 16, he prepared his disciples to receive the promise of the Father, which they did in the upper room in Act Two.
Jesus made a way for us to enter where there had been no way, and he did it with his blood sacrifice and his resurrected power.
You don't open the door; the door has been permanently opened. However, you and I must enter that door by faith. When we do, we will experience the reality of heaven.
Several times in the Scriptures, Jesus invited us to enter into His joy.
I remind you today that if you go to that open door, God will bring to that door what he has in mind for your future.
As you peer into that open door, you will see the angels and cherubims, the throne of God, and the Saints of old that have gone on before.
Don't wait for death or the coming of Christ for this to happen. You can experience this as Paul did when he encountered the third heaven.
We commonly call this prayer meditation, seeking the Lord, waiting on him, and enjoying his presence.

JUST IMAGINE THAT
Your imagination is like clay; reform it. There is a mysterious Scripture in the book of Genesis concerning the tower of Babel. God said that if he left these people to their own doing, they could imagine anything and do it. To understand that is so far beyond our comprehension in the natural mind that we miss the power of it.
The imagination is the seedbed for thoughts and actions. Things we end up doing start in that seedbed and grow into giant trees. Our life's good, bad, and ugly originate in our thought patterns.
One of the potent purposes of meditation that is lost to the Western culture is the result of thinking by letting your imagination develop and grow.
The great discoveries, inventions, and technological wonders come from someone's imagination. The same day the dreamer came up with the printing press or the television, someone else came up with evil deeds and desperate thoughts.
Jesus warned us to take no thought and say the things that would harm us.
The Scriptures also tell us to cast down those types of imaginations and take them captive to the word of God unto Christ.
Your imagination and your thought life come out of your heart, and because Christ lives there, you can let him mold you in his image. This is what we call maturity, or growing in Christ.
The apostle Paul referred to this as carnal people, those who let their imaginations run their lives into the works of the flesh. When we rest in the lord, cast or care for him, and trust him to keep us, that shapes our imagination.
After all, we are patterned after God himself; because of that, we are creative and inventive. Just like our heavenly father, we release that creative power through our mouth by the words we speak.
Be aware of your thoughts and imaginations; your words will reflect your heavenly father.

BE CAREFUL LITTLE EARS WHAT YOU HEAR
Jesus made a curious statement when he spoke to those around him. He said “he's that has ears to hear let him hear.” That's a very odd statement when we know that everyone generally has ears and they do already hear. This can only mean there is a spiritual ear that needs to be open so that we can hear spiritual truth.
We can call that ear faith in God. The scripture tells us that if we come to God, we must believe that he is, and that he is the rewarder of those that diligently seek him.
However, this is the challenge we face.
Who are we listening to today? Where do we get our news from?
The scriptures tell us, we are built up by our words, and our faith increases.
That would also mean that we are tore down by words and faith is removed, and doubt takes over.
What kind of company do we keep?
First Corinthians 15:33 tells us that bad company corrupts good morals. How does that work? Because whoever you hang around, will influence you because of the conversations that you have. Those words, according to proverbs 18: 8 will go down into your inner most parts of your body. That's a serious invasion of who you are.
Proverbs, 20 and 19 tells us that tale bearer or gossipers are to be avoided ;do not hang around them. Separate yourself. Why?
Because we have ears that hear those words around us, and they influence our life and future.
In first Timothy, 3:6 to 11 gives us a picture of the mature men and women who are to lead the body of Christ. These individuals are not gossipers they do not bear false report, and they do not carry slander. The words that they speak into the body of Christ is filled with life because they are listening to the right news and associating with others of excellence spirit.

GIANTS DON'T GO AWAY ON THEIR OWN-YOU MUST CHALLENGE THEM
Giants and other troublemakers that come along in our lives don't leave on their own; they must be challenged. When young David went to the battlefield, bringing food for his brothers, he encountered an odd scene in front of him. On one side of the valley, a massive man named Goliath had been there for over a month, shouting insults at the army of Israel. David also noticed, to his dismay, that the army of Israel was hiding in caves, afraid to come out and face the giant. God has been preparing David for giant killing without David's knowledge. His preparation was his encounter with a lion and a bear. Both of these obstacles in his life had to be faced before they were dismissed. (That's a nice word for killed and destroyed.) David did several things that set him on his pathway that led to the throne of Israel. First of all, he refused to use the weapons of natural man. That would be Saul's armor. The next thing he did was prepare his weapons of warfare and went to the brook and selected five smooth stones. David stayed in his anointing. He knew his strength and was going to use it. His next act was that he prophesied his victory in advance and told Goliath what he would do to him. His final act before throwing his stone was to run toward his giant, and when he did the anointing of the Lord, he took his stone to its target. Your giant will not go away on its own. You have to face it. Trouble will come; as a matter of fact, Jesus said that, so it must be true. If you face your troubles in faith, God will anoint your strength and listen to your prophecies and declarations, and the weapon you use against your giant will succeed.

THE OLD ACCOUNT WAS SETTLED
A wind blew through my spirit today, bringing this song to my mind. It's one of the songs we sang from a familiar hymnal in our Pentecostal church services. Let me quote a few lines for you. Verse one, "There was a time on earth, when, in the book of heaven, an old account was standing for sins yet unforgiven. My name was at the top, and many things were below. I went onto the keeper and settled long ago. Verse two The old account was large and growing every day, for I was always sinning and never tried to pay, but when I looked ahead and such pain and woe, I said that I would settle. I settled long ago. First three When at the judgment bar, I stand before my king, and he the book will open. If he cannot find the thing, then will my heart be glad while tears of joy will flow because I had it settled and settled long ago. First four When in that happy home, my savior's home above, I'll sing the redemption story and praise him for his love. I will not forget that book with pages white as snow because I came and settled and settled long ago. Then the chorus Long ago, down on my knees, long ago, I settled at all. Yes, the old account was settled long ago, hallelujah, and the record is clear today, for he washed my sins away when the old account was settled long ago. As you might imagine, songs like this shaped our theology in our Pentecostal world. However, this type of understanding tended to focus us on our personal journey and our personal sins and failures. Because of that, many of us repeated our redemption and cleansing processes almost as often as the old Israelites did under the old covenant. We would often take a new dip in the fountain of forgiveness and redemption in each service because this was our MicroView of redemption. How about the macro View? What's it like? Rom 5: 17-19 Here is a quote from verse 18 in the Mirror Bible. Take some time to meditate upon these verses. "The conclusion is clear: it took just one offense to condemn mankind; one act of righteousness declares the same mankind innocent. This is from the Philips translation: "We see, then, that as one act of sin exposes the whole race of men to condemnation, so one act of perfect righteousness presents all men freely acquitted in the sight of God!" Take some time to view redemption from 30,000 feet, and you'll begin to see just how inclusive and wonderful His grace is to us.

WHEN YOU PLANT YOUR SEED FOR HARVEST, PLANT THE BEST
A repeated phrase from the early computer days expressed how the system worked. GARBAGE IN, GARBAGE OUT! Anyone who understands how the computer works knows that it is true. This is why someone who inputs data gets paid so generously. The success of the whole system depends on accurate, reliable information going in if you expect to get the same coming back to you. This whole idea is much larger than the mechanics of a computer on the Internet. It's the pattern of life itself. The reason for that is that is the way God set it up. The Scriptures tell us, "If you want to have friends, show yourself friendly." They also tell us, "Give, and it shall be given to you press down, shaken together and running over will men get back to you?" We can also include the familiar verse, "according to your faith, so be it up to you." Then faith is likened to a seed that you plant. Jesus told us there was a category of faith. To one group, he said, "Oh, you a little faith." And to another one, he declared, "I have never seen such great faith, not even in Israel." Another seed that we plant that may be among the most powerful is our words. Jesus declared, "If we would say to the Mountain be cast into the sea, and not doubt in our heart, we would have what we say." Try that on for size when you get into your spiritual Superman suit. You and I stand at the most significant crossroads in spiritual history for the believer. We have had revelation upon revelation of God's kingdom over the last 2,000 years. I believe the seeds planted by our forefathers and the martyrs who have given their lives for this gospel are just about ready to come up. I've stared long enough at the outside of the veil of God's revelation. I want to go to the other side where the action is. HOW ABOUT YOU?

THE ANGEL CALLED TRUMPETER
In the remaining hours of 2014, the Spirit of God spoke to me concerning the new year I was facing. The words 12 - 12 -12 were dropped into my spirit, and I asked What do you mean by that, father? He said I will introduce to you 12 angels and 12 keys that were released, 12 miracles for this new year. As you may imagine, I was all ears, and my spirit was tuned in and ready to receive. Through 2015, it was a wild ride of Faith to believe the word that God had given me. Each of those months, around the clock, struck 12, a new Angel would come and introduce himself to me. The August Angel's name was Trumpeter. As we communicated throughout August, I discovered why the father sent him into my life. (I found he had been with me since childhood, preparing for the ministry God had designed for my life.) One of the things that he was designed to do was blow the trumpet when he prophesied over someone or to a congregation. I discovered that the blowing of the trumpet did something to the prophecy to penetrate into the spirit of the one receiving it. The scripture refers to blowing the trumpet in Zion. The blowing of the trumpet in the ancient days sent the army into battle. It gave directions and encouragement by the sound of the trumpet. In the military, when the bugle or trumpet is blown in the morning, it wakes up the troops so they can prepare for the day. The sound of the trumpet will proceed the coming of the lord according to the scriptures that we love to quote. As I understand it, this has been going on in my life for a long time without me realizing what was behind the curtain of the spirit. Since that encounter with the angel Trumpeter, I often hear it in my spirit when he blows that heavenly sound. This is my personal experience. Each of us has a path that God puts us on and teaches us how to function and be successful in our call. I encourage you to press into that secret place David talks about and listen to those heavenly instructions. It will change your life and your relationship with the father. After all, the scriptures tell us that the angels surround us to defend, guide, encourage, and protect. Isn't that something?

THERE ARE NO MYSTERIES IN GOD-ONLY ON REVEAL TRUTH
Those who have spent their life studying the human brain tell me that the average person uses a tiny percentage of their brain in their daily routine. To add to that thought, even the most intelligent men and women among us still use a tiny percentage of the brain that God gave us to think and create with. With that picture in mind, let me speak of our spiritual life and the revelation within us because of the God who dwells within us. Yet, as spiritual beings, we use a tiny part of the revelation and understanding of the kingdom that we are a part of. It's like a child who goes into a giant toy store and stops at the first one they find, spending the rest of the day with one toy. We have found salvation, that is true, yet some churches and people you may interact with consider that to be the only toy in the store. In my early days of travel, if I did not preach a salvation sermon, they considered me to have missed the mark. For those of us who are Pentecostal, charismatic, spirit-filled believers, we have our list of favorite subjects that we cycle through as we meet together. All of them are important and so precious that I would never want to do without them. Yes, like the little boy in the toy store, we may spend so much time recycling or reviewing those things that we already know that we never discover any fresh revelation from the father. In reality, there are no mysteries in God, only unrevealed truth. If you'll be honest with yourself and let your spirit have a voice, you will hear a cry: Father, reveal yourself in your fullness to me.

THE ROCK OR SAND WHICH WILL IT BE
The gift of life is so precious and yet so fleeting. It seems like just a flash of time, and we are older, and things have changed so much. Because of our busy lifestyle and the pressure of raising families, we often don't appreciate the days as they slip by. Only when we look back, do moments in time become precious, and we regret not savoring those moments. You build your life on something, whether a solid foundation, like a rock, or a shifting weak foundation, like sand. Jesus told us that the person that built their house upon the sand, their house will fall when the winds and the storm came in. But those who build their house upon the rock we know to be Jesus Christ will stand despite the strong winds and waves that come. It's always possible to readjust our foundations because when we deal with spiritual matters, the Scriptures tell us, "Today is the day of salvation.' There is no age limit on coming to Christ, and when you do, your foundation shifts from the sands of life to the rock, Christ Jesus, that will never fail you. The promise, directly from Jesus, in the quotation above is that your house will not fall when founded on Him, the solid rock.

WHY I DON'T READ THE BIBLE ANYMORE
"I know this must come as a shock to you, seeing that I am Mr. Average Christians in America. First of all, I have already read the Bible, so what's new? Secondly, listening to my favorite preacher online gives me all the words I need. And, after all, it is hard to understand. One of my friends in the small group reminded me the other day that it is all about dead people, so what's the point? However, on the positive side, I plan to start rereading it around Christmas sometime." A few days ago, I was home alone while Arlis visited our son in another city. I took advantage of the time and reviewed some of my notes, preparing for today's video. It wasn't quite lunchtime, so I pulled out the apple fritter I purchased at the grocery store on the way home. Of course, I had to have some coffee with that, then I found the wheat thins that were left over from yesterday, so I nibbled on some of those. But this time, I was hankering for an ice cream slice, so down the Hatch that went also. It wasn't long before I noticed it was just about lunchtime, but by now, I wasn't hungry, so I kept going through my paperwork. After all, there are some cookies in the cupboard I could get. I heard the other day from a doctor on the Internet. That sugar is just about as addictive as heroin. I don't know about the heroin part, but I sure know about the sugar part. I can wake up in the morning and dream of having my ice cream slice in the evening. No matter how you look at that, it's just plain wrong. When we go to church and get entertainment for the soul instead of food for the spirit, it becomes addictive. When we feed the soul snack food, such as good fellowship around good food and baseball games, it gets addictive. Of course, I am aware and even in agreement that all of these things are wonderful, fun, and good for us, but when they replace our spiritual food, such as the word of God and the moving of the Holy Spirit, we miss the point. If you feed yourself on "the ice cream slices of life" instead of the good word of God, you also will stop reading the Bible because you have satisfied your soul but not your spirit. Feed your spirit the good word of God regularly, and you will become the man and woman you have desired to be since you were converted.

TRAVELING LIGHT
I have traveled around the world several times and in multiple countries. I have gone by airplane, train, automobile, boat, motorcycle, and tricycle. I have even walked a fair amount of distance to get to my destination. In all the miles I've traveled and all the miserable places I've endured as I traveled, I have learned a few things that have helped me over the years. On my first international trip, I loaded up suitcases like I was leaving town for good. I tried to imagine every possible problem or activity and made room for it in my three bags. Not realizing the mode of transportation that I would encounter and needing a valet to help carry my abundance of luggage, I had trouble. I didn't open two of my suitcases on this first trip. If you know human nature very well, you've probably already guessed that I didn't learn just from one trip. But after a few of those experiences, I learned to travel light. Running through the airport in Japan trying to catch my flight home with the help of an attendant, carrying one of my bags as I drag the others, is no way to travel. When our team went to Europe, we had perfected our traveling gear into a tiny satchel. The Scriptures tell us to lay aside every weight and sin that does so easily beset us and run the race that is before us. Professional runners shave their tennis shoes of excess rubber to lose that much weight. The scriptures also tell us that the cares of life are weight to us. And they ask us to cast our cares on the Lord. I encourage you to unpack your extra weight because Jesus said, Come on to me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. He continued by saying take my yoke upon you, for it is light. So how about it? Are you ready to unpack and run the race like the gazelle fast and furious?

THANK GOD I'M FREE AT LAST
Among all the unique gifts God gave the human race, our ability to choose is the highest and most precious. When God said, let us make man in our image and provide them with dominion, rulership, creativity, and multiplication, he had reproduced someone like himself on Earth. Free will and our ability to make choices in the direction of Our life have been reserved just for you and me because we are like God, created in his image, and our adversaries. The devil hates us because he hates God. The scriptures tell us that "the devil comes to kill, steal, and destroy." I can't say this enough because many people don't know or believe it. America, the one that was founded at Plymouth Rock and dedicated to God and his kingdom, is the greatest nation that the Earth is ever known. At the core of its greatness is our number one right, the right to free speech. Free speech cannot happen without freedom of thought because that's where our words come from. Guess who doesn't like freedom of speech or freedom of thought? You got it, the devil himself. Today we celebrate the Fourth of July, commemorating the signing of our declaration of freedom from England and its heavy, handed control over our speech and thought. England had ruled the world for over 100 years and was the biggest economy and the largest army the world had at that time. It was said that the Union Jack, the name of their national flag, never had the sunset on it because it was in every nation worldwide. Our forefathers decided they had enough, and they put their foot down when they signed the Declaration of Independence. It took eight long bloody years before they signed the peace at the war's end. The army of England went home, and we began to form the nation that God had promised us. FREEDOM AT LAST. The only possible way that any of us can be free was paid for on the cross and at the resurrection through Jesus Christ. It's not the armies, the bullets, the rockets, and the airplanes that make us accessible. It is a fact that at the cross, Jesus won the battle over the enemy. Everything we do in our walk to freedom is because of that day because it was purchased by his sacrificial blood and the power of his resurrection. Celebrate this day of freedom that we enjoy in our nation but remember who gave it to you, and as we celebrate, we're celebrating our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

YOUR DAILY SUPER PILL: EPHESIANS TWO
Daily freshness and a word in season is the formula that works in the Christian life every day. Someone said we are not in a sprint we are in a race.. Much of what happens in our Christian development does not happen overnight. Because of that, we need to be able to endure tough times slow times and boring times. That is the same thing a farmer dose before the harvest season comes.
In our spiritual health and vitamin diet, there is the every day nutrition as we drink at the fountain of life through prayer meditation, and taking in the good word of God.
However, held back in reserve is what I call “super pills.” they're probably not the same ones you would use because each of us develop our own super pill in the journey we've been on. When I see a hill coming on my journey, I know I have to supercharge my spiritual engine to make it over the hill.
Then there's the times it seems like we're coasting or resting under the shade tree spiritually. Those are the times we get to enjoy new discoveries and meditation on past victories and resting in his goodness.
The book of Ephesians happens to be one of my super pills. I can break that pill bottle open in any spot I want and feel the super charge spirit of God flow into my spirit. Ephesians 2 is a special place I love to visit.
So today let's spend a few minutes going through some of my favorite reminders of who I am and what he has done for me and where I'm going.
When I finish my journey through some of these wonderful, vitamin enriched versus, I'm ready to hit the race again and win the prize.

THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST IS NOT THE ALAMO
For some who may not know our nation's history, almost two centuries ago, there was a small mission station in Texas called the Alamo. The struggle in the land at that time was about who would determine the border between Mexico and Texas. A small band of patriots gathered at the Alamo to defend Texas against tens of thousands of Mexican soldiers coming to destroy them. The unfolding story of the Alamo is that these patriots were brave, determined, and unwavering in their defense against impossible odds. No matter how often I've watched the John Wayne movie depicting this epic account of the struggle against uneven odds. It always turns out the same way. The good guys lose, and the bad guys win. The confusing part about the church in these times is that millions of Christians across the nation go to church every Sunday and hear a sermon about losing the war. There's a virus that invaded our theology over 200 years ago that has been preached in our pulpits and written in tens of thousands of books that tells us we lose in the end. Yes, those same teachers tell us that we can heal the sick and perhaps even raise the dead, and we should win thousands of people to the Lord. They tell us that you can win some battles along the way, but don't ever think you will win the war. This teaching ignores scriptures such as "the knowledge of the Lord will fill the whole earth like the waters cover the sea." They also don't consider that Jesus won the battle on the cross and resurrection of who controls the world and all of God's creation, and the enemy will never take that back. However, through scriptural manipulation, they have invented a way to release the enemy from prison so that he can stomp the kingdom of God into the dust. The message is, don't get your hopes up. Just work hard and wait for the end when Jesus will snatch us out of harm's way because, in reality, Jesus didn't win on the cross. It's time that the church of Jesus Christ makes up its mind about who it believes. Is "Satan still alive and well on planet Earth?" Or did Jesus rise from the dead, as the Scriptures declare, as conquering king and priest of the entire creation? According to Ephesians 2, he has raised us together, and we are seated with him in heavenly places ruling over the affairs of our generation. With this thought in mind, it's time we go to work and fulfill our destiny that God redeemed us back to himself for.

ANTI-GOD'S VOICES WILL BE SILENCE
A few days ago, we were babysitting one of my granddaughters, about three years old. Somewhere in the morning, she began singing a little song she had heard on cartoons. It was a catchy tune, something that was familiar to me, so I sang it with her. The bad news is that I couldn't get that silly song out of my mind for the rest of the day. As the saying goes, it was driving me crazy.
Those voices that get into your head come from many different sources. And when they get there, it seems impossible to get them out.
As you know, my name is George. If your name is not George, you don't understand how it feels to have the kids at school sing the song to you, "Georgie Porgie pudding pie."
Little Georgie tried to kiss the girl in that silly children's song, then she cried. Then, when the boys came out to play Little George, he ran away.
No, you don't have to pray for me. I am long past that particular challenge, but it taught me that words can hurt and stay with you for a long time.
The anti-God voices can come through friends and family, the media, or your thinking. The only remedy I've ever found that works against the anti-God voices you may hear is the word of God.
The scriptures tell us if we hid the word in our hearts, we would not sin against God. The simple description of sin is missing God's mark or target for you in life.
When those voices come, do what Jesus did in his temptation in the wilderness.
Answer the enemy with God's word, and he will flee from you.

PRAYER-THE HOUR OF THE CHANGE THE WORLD
Unfortunately, many people hear the word work when we mention prayer in our churches. I suppose the reasoning is I thought this gospel was free; why should I have to work for it? Prayer could be at the top of the most misunderstood names in the Christian dictionary.
What exactly is prayer? The Scriptures tell us that all perfect things come from the Father above, where there is no changing because what He gives us is good. With that scripture in mind, I conclude that God invented prayer because it's good for us and our future generations.
First of all, let me tell you that prayer is not. Prayer is not a duty, and it is not an obligation, and it is not drudgery. God will not curse you if you don't pray, and the roof won't fall on your head. I bring this up because I've been told that more than once in my youth.
What is prayer? First, prayers are a privilege; something is given to us that has eternal value. But most of all, prayer is our entrance to the throne of God, our heavenly Father, where we can spend time with our best friend. Everything in that prayer chamber is vital to our lives and future generations.
Jesus asked his disciples could you not just wait with me or pray with me for one hour?. He did this during his garden travail and needed their backup. So add to why we pray, intercession, and back up our brothers and sisters and their journey.
How about one-hour, folks, OK?

THE KEY TO SPIRITUAL STRENGTH
Among the many things we learn very early on is that if we don't eat, we become weak. In this season of my life, my wife and I are enjoying our seven young grandchildren, ages 1 to 7. We also have the privilege of being Babysitters Central.
It's an interesting observation about young children; even though they ate at home just before coming to our house, they still seem hungry.
I've come to the conclusion that there must be something special about Mimi's pancakes that they have a hunger for. So they rub their little bellies and say Meet me. I'm hungry, and can I have some pancakes?
One of the first things I noticed about young converts is their hunger for the word of God and church in Christian Fellowship. In their former life, they eat all kinds of physical and spiritual food. The food they ate did not satisfy them, so they found satisfaction when they came to Christ.
The word of God, as we call the Bible, can satisfy the spirit that God is placed within each of us. However, we need to remember that the written word of God is a doorway into an active lifestyle of fellowship with God himself.
If all you do is read the Bible and memorize scriptures and be able to win all the contests at your local church scripture fest, you're missing the point.
The written word is a seed that is planted in our store that should grow into a relationship with the father in his personally.
That relationship is not reserved for some future date "when we all get to Heaven or how happy we will be."
That relationship is a daily experience that brings us his joy and strength.

HIDDEN BUT NOT HIDDEN
Here's a thought for you to chew on today while you're meditating upon the good things of God. Colossians three opens up the thought of being crucified with Christ, risen with Christ, and raining and ruling with Christ.
The third verse of that chapter talks about being hidden in Christ with God. What could it mean to be hidden in Christ? I recall a child playing hide and seek, and someone would bury their face and count to 50, and all the other kids would find a place to hide. If you were clever, you could fool everybody, and nobody would ever find you.
We had a birthday party for one of my sons, and they played hide and seek. One young man went into the backyard, claimed a tree, and spent the entire party in the tree. He was so hidden everybody thought he had gone home.
Could we become so hidden in Christ that the devil can't find us or even see who we are? Every time we show up, he sees Jesus show up, and he always knows how that works for him, which is not good.
No, if you're playing hide and seek at that children's game and you make noises, you will be found. So it is when we're hidden in Christ that if we make noises like an unredeemed person and have a language that reveals our fears instead of our faith, Satan will find us.
It's my understanding if you can keep your mouth closed until you learn to talk, how Jesus talks, you can stay hidden and safe in his protection.

AFTER THE VICTORY LEARN TO GOVERN
If you're a student of the old testament, would you be if you have read it, you will notice the children of Israel had a hard time staying faithful to God's law.
Just about the time they had victory won a battle and conquered a nation, they would blow it by starting to worship other gods.
What is it about human nature that has a hard time walking in a straight line and staying true to what they know to be good for them? We could call that sinful nature, and that rebel in our heart wants to do its own thing.
When we get our feet out of the mud of sin or bondage, we start playing in it again for some crazy reason.
Jesus said when the house is swept and clean, and you don't occupy it, spirits worse than what you kicked out will return.
Now that's a loose translation of that verse, but it means you need to learn how to keep yourself healthy spiritually after being delivered from sin in bondage.
To do that, we must maintain a healthy spiritual diet with the word of God, good fellowship, and faithful prayer life.
I encourage you today to keep your hands on the wheel. Let God put his hands over you; he will keep you steady and solid in your journey.

TAKE THAT HEAVENLY WALKABOUT
When I was a teenager, my father purchased 40 acres south of Oregon City and developed a small farm with cows and horses. When you have animals, you need a fence, and this particular fence is electric.
Guess who was called upon to check the fence when it stopped working? You guessed it me. "George, check the fence out; somethings not working," and off I go into the dark. Summer, winter, wind rain, and snow, young George was off to check the fence out around the 40 acres.
By the time I was ready for marriage and time to leave the farm. I knew every square inch of that 40 acres because I did a walkabout 1000 times.
When I was home, Dad bought an extra 5 acres next to the 40 with a barn somewhere in that time. You'd be right if you knew who helped put all the hay up every year into that barn. I tell you, I knew every square inch of that barn because I had surveyed it.
God has given you a kingdom to watch over, survey, and walkabout. It is your job to know every corner, every fence post, and all the cattle in between. You have territory that God has given you rights to rule in. It's time to walk about in it, find out what's out there and begin to use it for the kingdom and the purposes God has given you.

DATES AND TIMES THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Of all the weddings I have performed, we never started on time. They tell me the English have a tradition of always being 10 minutes late to the bride's wedding. However, even though all the weddings I have performed have been a little late in starting, they always happened because the couples kept a date they couldn't miss.
I have had many jobs as a laborer in the workforce. I have an appointment to meet the labor manager for hot carriers and labor union of Portland. I was only 22 but had enough sense and training to show up on time. When I showed up on time, he gave me a date to show up for work. When I showed up for work, I made three times what my brother-in-law made on his job.
I kept the time and date and was rewarded for it abundantly.
What is God saying about you and your spiritual work concerning some times and dates? Is there something that you need to do that has a particular place to be in a time to go there?
The Scriptures Tell us today is the day of salvation. There's never any reason to wait to make those decisions to obey God's purpose in your life. You can do something today about the desires that are in your spirit. If you take a step forward, God will provide the rest of the way you can walk on.

IT'S RESURRECTION DAY-HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DR. GEORGE WATKINS
Today we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, our Savior and lord. As we do, we remember the significance of this great occasion, which brought a conclusion, the old covenant, and ushered in the new covenant.
When Jesus rose from the dead, it sealed the prophecies of old and became proof of what God had promised to mankind, a savior that took away the sins of the world. Just think about the magnitude of that statement; one man could reverse the curse that one man brought to the earth. Adam brought it, and Jesus took it away. That's the foundational story of this great Resurrection Day that we celebrate.
When I had my resurrection day 73 years ago, we were also celebrating the resurrection of Jesus on that same day. As I sat, listening to the story of the resurrection of Jesus with my mother in Brean Chapel, I was not concerned about the whole world needing Jesus, but I knew I needed him. That night, I experienced salvation, or by the description that Jesus gave Nicodemus, "to be born again."
That night the living Christ presented himself as my Savior and the one to cleanse me from my sin nature. I had yet to learn the theological descriptions of what took place. Now I know he moved in to live there permanently. Seven Decades later, he is as faithful and precious as the first day I experienced his love.
That's why I celebrate this day as a "Happy birthday George Watkins."
THE POWER OF THE SEATBELT
The crackle of the loudspeaker comes on, and the captain announces departure. "Ladies and gentlemen, we are preparing for takeoff. Will everyone please take their seat and fasten your seatbelts." Then here comes the seatbelt cops, otherwise known as the stewardess.
After catching a few of those not paying attention, they tell us the plane can only depart once you fasten your seatbelt, sir.
Seeing that I was born long before the seatbelt became mandatory, it took me some time to get used to buckling up. As a matter of fact, all the cars that I have before 1962 are not required seatbelts. We still have fond memories of all five of us in the seat of our 56 Ford F 100 with not a seatbelt around.
Yes, I know that was then this is now, and I'm not totally ignorant of the purpose of the seatbelt. It does save lives.
So today, I am telling you to fasten your seatbelt and prepare for takeoff. And according to the principles of the Scriptures and the kingdom of God, certain things don't take off unless we are united in faith and purpose.
Just like the passenger airplane can only take off once everybody is buckled in, so it is in our journey together; certain things will only happen once we buckle up and prepare for takeoff.
Some of the buckle-up involves prayer meditation in the word, loving one another, cleansing our hearts from unforgiveness, etc.
In this analogy, the seatbelt cop is the Holy Ghost that comes along and reminds us to put our seatbelts on for safety and in preparation for takeoff.
Unfortunately, some of us on this journey have yet to learn why we're on the airplane and are just along for the ride. Thank God the pilot knows where we're going and what it takes to get us there.
The enemy has fired a shot across our bow with intention of taking us down.
The response I am hearing from the body of Christ is a multitude of clicks as the seatbelts are being fastened. We are going into battle with the intention of winning complete victory.

IF SATAN IS DEFEATED, WHERE DO BAD THINGS COME FROM?
After decades of ministry and counseling a multitude of people, the above statement may be the most repetitive one I've heard.
When bad things happen to good people, we scratch our heads and ask how that could happen. The next thing we do is try to figure out who to blame.
For the unlearned ones, they blame God because the church has told them God is in control of everything. When in reality, that is not the case.
How thin is it that those who seem to be doing everything right suddenly have disasters come upon them? Interestingly enough, we see the same question in the life of Jesus when they ask him who sinned that this boy is blind?
The Scriptures tell us that Jesus took all the power away from Satan and gave it to the believer. So how often does Satan take advantage of the believer and bring on such chaos and trouble?
The answer is straightforward compared to the complex system that it represents.
Satan can take advantage of us because he lives in the system and knows how it operates. The system we're talking about is seedtime and harvest, and the Bible tells us it will function until the end of Time.
What seems to be hidden to many people is that everything you do and say is a seed you plant for the future. Jesus said that if you sow to the wind, you will reap a whirlwind. But if you sow to the spirit, you will reap life everlasting.
Matthew 13 tells us that the angels are the reapers of the harvest, which means that both good and bad angels will reap the harvest you plant. The most powerful seed you and I can plant is our words.
The most important thing we can remember about our words as seeds. That what we say will come back to us, good or bad. No wonder David said in the psalms, "guard my mouth, Lord, that I might not sin against you."

THIS COULD BE THE START OF SOMETHING BIG
Among life's foundational principles is that everything starts with a seed. Jesus even referred to our faith as a mustard seed, and he said it was the smallest seed, yet it produced a large tree where the birds of the air could find a place to build a nest.
Everything we do in life starts small, and the outcome depends on our actions from then on. The farmer who plans to seed then needs to water the seed. If he plays by the rules that govern his world, he will have a harvest at the end of the season.
And so it is with our spiritual journey as we develop and mature into sons and daughters of God in this world. Oh, it's true that the moment we receive Jesus, we have the fullness of God and all of the gifts he has given us.
However, like a baby born into this world comes fully equipped to accomplish anything they puts their mind to, they must mature first.
This could start something big if we listen and obey the next step in God's plan for our life.
All of us have had good ideas; we need God's thoughts.
There's certainly no shame in trying new ideas out. But a better way to do it would be to get the mind of God before we start. What's frustration and time that we waste if we don't do that?
The days we are now in are undoubtedly the start of something big in the kingdom of God and for his glory. All we have to do is listen and obey.

TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND BREATHE OUT HIS NAME
The alarm goes off, and you lay there staring at the ceiling, wondering what day it is. Then you let out a moan when you realize you have to go to work again.
The telephone rings, and you ignore it, knowing it's the school again reporting little Johnny's misbehavior. As the phone keeps ringing, you wonder what am I going to do with that son of mine; he just doesn't listen.
And it's 100° in, and you've been stuck in freeway traffic for an hour. The old jalopy finally gave up, and you're sitting beside the road and your phone battery just died.
Mommy, there's a man at the door. He says he's the landlord and wonders where the last month's rent is. He doesn't look very happy.
TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND BREATHE OUT HIS NAME
If your heart is still pumping blood, you must be alive, and if you are, you have already lived through some of life's trials above. If you know about our heavenly father and how spiritual principles function, do what I do when these things press in on you.
Find a quiet Place where you can relax, lean back, put your feet up on something, and rest. Please take a deep breath and breathe out his name. When you do, you'll instantly recognize the changing atmosphere and know you are in his presence.
It's in the presence of the Lord that we find the fullness of joy. Take advantage of this beautiful, spiritual blessing that he has provided, and be free from the world's burdens.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE VS THE MIND OF CHRIST-WHO WILL WIN?
Here they are again shouting in our ears. Are those intellectual elites of the world preaching the gospel? This time the master race will rise on the wings of artificial intelligence. We don't need a god; they say we are our own God, and we rule our lives through technology.
And so it continues the same old message of the antichrist influence, dressed up in a new suit, trying to influence the new generation. Godlessness and human superiority have paraded themselves across history for ages, sticking its finger in the eye of God and saying we will conquer you.
So far, all I see is the defeat of those who have shouted the loudest. As he was dying, one of the Roman emperors named Julian, blood ran down his chest, shook his fist at the sky, and said, " Oh thou Galilean, you have won at last?
The new monster they have released from the closet is called artificial intelligence. They are boasting that this invention of man's mind will eventually take over the mind of man. It will become so intrusive that we will not have to think or even work. It seems our life will be dedicated to pleasure.
Doesn't that sound familiar?
How many societies of the past have disappeared from history because of the pursuit of that devilish idea?
Now is the time for you and me to understand the power of the mind of Christ in the believer. The mind of Christ will never use or concede to the inventions of men and their devilish ideas.
This is our hour to shine as representatives of Christ on earth, reflecting his mind and wisdom amid a crooked and perverse generation.
Could this be what Jesus meant when he said, let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works, and glorify your father, which is in heaven?
This is our hour to shine.

FAITH, LUCK OR FICTION-WHAT SAY YE?
What's the first thing that comes a head of a flash flood? You're right. Trash!
What is the river runs dry things begin to collect in that dry riverbed so when the fresh rain comes in the mountains it washes all the trash ahead of it.
So here we are, at the beginning of a third great awakening in our nation in the world. The signs of the flood are starting to show up such as Asberry College.
And what do you know here comes the trash talk.
Unfortunately, most of the trash talk comes from the church itself. How sad.
The elder brothers, the Pharisees, the religious folks, all have something to say in the negative, but God begins to break through in a new floodtide of revival and renewal.
So is it faith luck or is it fiction? You will be forced to make a choice as God continues to pour out his spirit into this new generation of believers. As the glory of God continues to be revealed in all of its weird and wonderful ways. Everyone will make a choice whether they are conscious of it or not.
Will the body of Christ ever be able to agree on all the points of faith? Only God knows. I do know that we all can agree on the love of God, and that he has given to us as a people. And we can also all agree that Jesus died for the sins of the world and that includes you and me.
So what do you choose today? Is it faith or just plain look that the accident didn't happen that the sickness didn't come or that you got the promotion on the job. Which side sall you stand on in the days to come? It will determine the outcome of your involvement in this great floodtide of blessing and revival. That is upon us even now.

ADJUSTING OUR BEARINGS FOR TRUE NORTH
We were living in an age of technology unimaginable 50 years ago. The computer and the downsizing of the chip in those computers have made it possible for incredible results.
For instants, in our aviation, the computer flies the airplane moments after takeoff and two moments before landing. During the flight, the pilots observe our modern technology doing its job with precision.
Are fighter jets dominating the air with weapons and equipment that you and I, as outsiders to that world, would not even understand? Some of our fighter jets come close to half $1 billion in value, and with just one in the air, they can fight at multiple levels and targets.
Yet among all the high-class weapons is an old antiquated tool that protects that multi-million dollar plane from destruction. When the jet is attacked by rockets, it releases batches of tinfoil to do a straightforward task, distract the missile, and take it elsewhere.
Everything thrown at us from the enemy, from a headache to bankruptcy, has one purpose: to distract us from our target and our purpose in life.
It doesn't matter to the enemy, what it is as long as it keeps you, and me from hitting our target and fulfilling the will of God.
The Holy Spirit is the only one that can readjust us back to true North.
If we keep our eyes on Jesus, our true North, we will accomplish what God intends.
How do we adjust our compass to where we know we're on target again? The only place that you can find that adjustment is in his presence. It's in the presence of the Lord that we find fullness of joy, and as his right-hand pleasures, forever more.
Now, that's true, North!

I CRIED UNTO THE LORD, AND HE HEARD ME
Just about the time we believe that we have figured out the correct way to pray and get answers, something shifts. The shift doesn't come on God's part; it comes with us because of our narrow view of the mercy of God. When Jesus said suffer the little children to come onto me for such is the kingdom of heaven he was giving us a primary key on approaching the throne room.
The Pharisees and scribes of Jesus's day were like the paparazzi of our day. They never left him alone. Every time he stepped out into the public forum, they were there to criticize and scandalize his approach to God. He brought up the children that day to show them that even baby talk would get the heart of God, and he would listen to you.
The Testament is filled with various types of people, both important, influential and unknown, and weak, that called under the Lord, and he heard them.
Moses cried into the Lord and began a series of events that broke the power of the greatest nation on earth, Egypt. When he cried into the Lord, God delivered them from 400 years of bondage.
David said that he cried unto the Lord and God heard him. PS 18:6
Again he cried unto the Lord, and God healed him. PS 30:2
The children of Israel cried unto the Lord, and he delivered them out of trouble. PS 107:13
So what is it with you? Are you a young child in trouble? Or are you a mature man or woman of God in distress?
There's no right or wrong formula in these situations because we cry out of our hearts, and when we do, the Scriptures tell us our God hears us.
So my friend, go for it, and watch God do a miracle in your life.

THE IMPORTANCE OF DECLARING THAT JESUS IS LORD
Many traditions we have as Christians had their beginnings as a directive from our heavenly Father. Unfortunately, many of them have turned into dead works, becoming lifeless to us because we have lost the purpose they were given.
For instance, one central section of our worship time is confessing who God is through song and speech. Somewhere in our liturgy, we declare who Jesus Christ is to us and what authority the heavenly Father has in our affairs. Let's take a snapshot of why that's important to us and why our rituals of worship and decorations are essential for spiritual life and strength.
The story of mankind from creation to our present time has been disobedience to the original command of submission and obedience to Jehovah. As a representative of the first generation of mankind, Adam failed that commission.
The second generation of mankind that was produced from the seed of Noah and his family failed again. Instead of reproducing mankind to fill the Earth with those in the image of God who honored him as their authority, they ended up at the tower of Babel.
This time instead of a great flood, God broke them up and sent them out as individual nations of the world. He turned those nations over to lesser gods, sons of God that he had created to serve him in the spiritual world.
Then he chose one nation with Abraham as its Father. He gave them a promise as long as they honored him and declared him to be the Lord of their life, he would protect them and provide for them. This is why king David had 24-hour worship in Jerusalem—declaring with their voice every day that Jehovah was the only God they would serve.
Today you and I are the next generations that Jesus created at his resurrection. We have been given the same command that every age of mankind has had; to love the Lord our God with all of our heart, and our neighbor is our self.
That's why it's essential for our spiritual protection, development, and increase to declare daily that Jesus is our life's Lord.

BUILDING THE KINGDOM IN TIMES OF TROUBLE
There's a song from the church that says, "anyone can sing when the sun's shining bright, but he gives a song in your heart at night."
Why does trouble come our way?
Trouble comes our way for the same reason they put those little bumps on the side of the highway. When you start to drift off course, the first thing you hit before you hit the ditch is those little bumps to wake you up. Most of the trouble that comes our way is simply a reminder to refocus on what matters most; our relationship with the father.
Take note of the story of Nehemiah in the Old Testament when he restored the city of God. Nehemiah proved to be a leader capable of building the wall during trouble. Even though he had permission from the king, he was constantly harassed by groups of protesters in the city.
The first thing Nehemiah did was take a survey of what it would take to complete the task. After the survey was complete, he was able to organize his workforce. One of the essential keys to the success of building the wall was that they were able to chew gum and walk simultaneously.
As Nehemiah describes the success of the wall, he tells us that the workers had a trowel in one hand and a sword in the other. They could complete their expert service and stand in ready defense and sharp observation while constructing their wall.
Don't let trouble distract you from your purpose in building gods kingdom. God has given you the ability to build at the same time you defend. There are so many ways that God brings wisdom to our lives to help us through our times of trouble if we stay focused on the plan he has given us.
Trouble is never a problem when you stay focused on Jesus.

APPROACHING THE SOUND BARRIER-THE VOICE OF GOD
October 14-1947, the day Charles 'Chuck' Yeager broke the sound barrier in his supersonic airplane named "Glorious Glennis." Seven hundred sixty-one miles an hour is how fast sound travels. To break that invisible shield that was thought impossible, Chuck had to travel faster than that in his hypersonic airplane. No one thought it could be done, a barrier impossible to break, yet he did the unthinkable after nine attempts.
History is filled with stories just like that impossible barrier broken. Somewhere within the human soul, God planted a passion for overcoming the limitations surrounding us and breaking the barrier. You see it in the race car driver, the mountain climber, the deep sea diver, and the crazy one that jumps out of an airplane without a parachute. The quest to go farther, faster, deeper and higher is a gift God planted deep in the psyche of the human heart.
Why is it, then, when it comes to the passion of adventure and discovery, religion lag so far behind? Every breakthrough we have ever had in the spiritual world seems to come with sacrifice and persecution, especially from the religious crowd. We can certainly take that example from our savior because it wasn't the Romans that put him on the cross; the leaders of the local religious center put Him there.
Today I'm telling you that we are approaching a "sound barrier" in our spiritual journey with God. I'm also telling you it's possible to hear his voice and be led by the spirit. I will remind you again that the angels of the Lord have been given to you for comfort, courage, protection, and end direction.
Some of your religious friends will tell you it's impossible to break that barrier and hear the voice of God. Don't listen to them. You have been created by the father to fly high and go fast, and you have the ability to hear his voice.

GODS SECRET WEAPON-RESTORATION
"Then your light will break out like the dawn, and your healing (restoration) Will quickly spring forth. (" Isaiah 58:8) Only God has reserved the ability to restore his creation to its complete and perfect beginning, and restoration is a gift from God and only from him.
Nothing else but the work of Jesus on the cross and the Resurrection can bring broken things back to their original perfection.
The scripture tells us in Matthew 5:48 be ye, therefore, perfect even as your father in heaven is perfect. So what does it mean to be perfect? Who has set the standard for perfection? May I suggest that only the author of a great novel has the authority to correct and edit that novel?
So it is with you and me as the byproduct of God's incredible creation calls the human race. Only the creator knows what perfection is and has promised to bring us back to that perfection through Jesus Christ.
The confusion comes when religion tries to set the standard of perfection, such as things you can and cannot do, even to be a church member, let alone a Christian. I would suggest that many of the rules in man's religion have little to do with God's idea of perfection and being the Saint that he has declared you to be.
So how does restoration work? Well, that's the whole point, and there's absolutely no work to it; Jesus Christ has already completed it on the cross and Resurrection.
Our part of this restoration process is obedience and submission in our daily fellowship with the father. We call this maturity or growth in Christ.
Step-by-step, here a little and there a little, then suddenly someone says how much you've grown in Christ. However, only you know the steps you had to take to get there. It's somewhat like the entertainer that was an overnight success; it just took him 15 years to get to it.
Be encouraged, my friends; you're on the right track day by day; we fellowship the father and become more like him as we do.

THE DYNAMIC DUO- YOUR WILL AND FAITH
Among the many myths and misconceptions of God that rumble around in the church is the idea that God does all the work, and we sit back and watch. Because of that false understanding of our relationship with God and our part in the outcome of events, we suffered many evils that we shouldn't have.
The teachings we have received concerning our faith life these past years are a fantastic revelation of our ability to believe in God. However, the Scriptures teach us that a hidden trigger makes faith work; it's called our self-will.
It seems apparent in the Scriptures that even though God has presented us with food and other necessities of life, we must be willing to receive and use them. It is said of our heavenly father that he is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to the knowledge of the truth.
Yet when we look around us, we see that has not happened. Why? Because even though God has offered us eternal and divine life, we must be willing to receive it.
And John 5:40, Jesus spoke to the elders and Pharisees when he said; but you are not willing to come to me that you might have life.
Just think about the tragedy of that statement. You and I know people just like that. If we could make them willing, they could have eternal life at the taking.
When Jesus said that if you are my disciples, you are to take up your cross and follow me, it necessitated self-will. When he speaks to us in that same statement, we must be willing to obey and pick up our cross and follow.
Remember what Isaiah 1:19 tells us; if we are willing and obedient, we shall eat the good of the land.

PRIVATE TIMES WITH THE FATHER -PRAYER
Imagine, with me for a moment, you go to your mailbox on Monday morning and open a letter from your favorite superstar. It could be football, Hollywood, politics, or the author of the latest runaway novel. The letter addresses you by name and says they will be in town next Thursday and have set aside private time to be with you.
With that same imagination, what would your response be now that you have that favorite superstar in your mind? Of course, by now, you can see what I am trying to illustrate by this imaginary picture.
Knowing human nature as I do, I can't fathom that you would turn them down or make an excuse concerning this private meeting. "oh, I'm sorry, I have a hair appointment on Thursday." "Sorry about Thursday. I have to meet with the boys at the hot rod club."
Now listen to a bona fide invitation from the creator of the universe inviting you to a private meeting so you can interact with him about your life. Isaiah 1:18 says, "come now let us reason together saith the lord."
This invitation to meet with the God of creation, our heavenly father, is referred to as prayer in the Scriptures. We have been invited to a partnership with our father in the affairs of this earth, and we do it through the system of prayer. This precious privilege that we have to spend time in the father's presence was made possible by the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross and released to us by the power of the Resurrection.
The modern church does not understand prayer and its purpose; if they did, it would be the most attended service of the week. In most churches, if you call a prayer meeting, you know who will come in advance. Most generally, a faithful core of saints who have learned how precious and vital prayer is.
Prayer has never been a numbers game throughout the history of our interaction with God. There have been many cases in the Scriptures where one praying saint changed the situation to victory.
Will you be that one praying saint in your family or church that will change your situation to victory? Scriptures call this "standing in the gap."

SECRETS I LEARNED IN THE PIGPEN
"Only one life will soon be passed only was done for Christ will last." Wow, where have I heard that before? Like every day of my life. It must have been my mother's favorite quotation. So then, how long did it take me to understand the meaning of that phrase? How about last Thursday?
Well, you catch my point about the slow learning curve we have in life. I've decided that this life we live is one long lesson. And with each lesson we pass, we understand our father's purpose for us in a greater way.
The story that Jesus told us in Luke 15 of the two sons in conflict with their father is a mini snapshot of our life journey in understanding who we are in the kingdom of God.
The story is focused on the prodigal son who left home and ended up in the worst possible condition a Jewish boy could find himself in. Feeding the pigs of a gentile Farmer.
Buried in the story of this boy's redemption are two secret keys you and I can use daily when we need to move forward in our purpose.
The number one key to his turnaround was when he confessed his actions and the target that he was aiming for. "I will get up and go to my father."
In that confession, he set his life's course and ultimate redemption.
The second key is equally essential when he preconditions himself to realign with the father and the father's purpose for him.
"I will say, father, I have sinned. (missed the mark)
Of all the lessons he learned while in the pig pen, these two confessions changed his life and brought him home.

I GOT EXPOSED TO GOD-NOW. I'M CONTAGIOUS
The fear of contagious diseases has overwhelmed the population for several years. Because of the many voices that have shouted at us from all sides, we have been forced to separate, hibernate and shield ourselves like fearful orphans on a cold winter's night. The message was clear if we got too close to the wrong thing, we would go straight to the hospital.
If, by a miracle of the Holy Spirit, I could motivate and inspire the body of Christ to freely expose themselves to the glory of God, the infection process of that glory would spread like wildfire.
A song we sing in the church tells us to "taste and see that the Lord is good." Believe me; it doesn't take much of a taste to be addicted to the things of God for a lifetime. One exposure to a healing miracle will shake you to the core and change your view of his grace and power.
Or perhaps a divine rescue from a deadly accident that spared your life will impress you to the point of passion for him. All it takes is a personal visitation into his presence, and you will come out contagious, filled with the virus of heaven.
Everywhere you go, you will unconsciously spread peace, joy, healing, and forgiveness to those you encounter. It happens because you have been exposed to the glory of God through the presence of Jesus Christ. And when you have a genuine and vibrant connection with Christ, you cannot help but carry the same spirit that raised Christ from the dead.
So my friends, take away the veil, unlock your door, open up your windows and let the son of righteousness come into your life.

SEEDS ARE US-THE MINISTRY OF SEED PLANTING
My grandpa and grandma Erickson homesteaded 600 acres of farmland in Montana around 1900. The stories that I remember them telling us about those days are both thrilling and agonizing. The labor and uncertainty of life that they endured to make a farm life possible is beyond our comprehension. Our society today cannot grasp the amount of effort that it took to build our nation and its people.
Around 1925 my grandparents were forced to sell their farm and move south, ending up in California. They were forced out of their farm life because of the power of early cold winters killing the seed before it could be brought to harvest.
As kingdom people serving our Lord, you and I are also seed planters and tillers of the soil. And by the miracle of God living in us, we are also planted seeds in the ground.
Because his grand plan orchestrates our life, we have been selected to be planted in fields of his choosing; until we realize that "the steps of a good person are ordered of the lord," we can become frustrated by the place or the condition that we are in at the moment. Some of that is geographical. "Why are we in this city, Lord? While another frustration is our spiritual growth and wondering why it is so slow.
Both of these frustrating and confusing questions can be settled by realizing we are seeds in the hand of God, planted at his discretion. Be careful not to judge each day of your journey as the end of your journey. If you sit on the edge of your bed every night wondering if you were a success today, you will go to bed discouraged most nights.
However, if you understand the seasons of your life and what it takes to mature the seed that you are, you will enjoy the journey.
Remember our heroes of Hebrews 11 that most of them died before realizing the completion of their ministry. But they died in faith knowing that we would complete their journey and their purpose in our journey.

GOD SAID, I WILL LOVE YOU TILL IT HURTS
The story is told of a young man in love with a young woman, and he sends her a note to express his love for her.
"My dearest Beth,
Today I pledge my love to you forever. And I will prove to you how I love you. I will climb the highest mountain. I will swim in the deep sea. I will fight the wild beast of Africa. And cross the desert on my knees.
And, by the way, if it's not raining, I'll be over Saturday night."
That sounds a little suspicious to me; all smoke and no fire.
When God committed his love to us and said, I'll love you till it hurts he fulfilled that promise at the Cross. Scripture tells us that Jesus looked at the Cross and all its pain and sorrow and saw the Joy on the other side of it. He suffered and died for us because he knew our redemption was much more valuable than his momentary pain.
And he did this all for you and me so that we might be brought back to the father as sons and daughters. God paid the price with his pain so that we might enjoy and live in freedom, peace, and eternal life.
Yes, there is pain in life, but it's not redemptive pain because we are already redeemed. The pain we may suffer is because we stand up for righteousness in the midst of a crooked generation.
That's why we will hear these words from our Lord, "well done, my good and faithful servant, enter into the joys that I have prepared for you."
So cinch in your armor belts, my friends; as they say, there are great days ahead.

SOME BATTLES ARE JUST FOR PRACTICE
Have you ever got tired of asking God why? Why did this happen, or why did that happen? Every once in a while, we would hear something to help ease our anxiety, and then we went on with life. However, the next time a battle came into view, we always wondered why.
I have an answer for you, which you may not have thought of before.
Some battles are just for practice.
Where do you think the old wrinkled face slightly bent over saints get all their wisdom and faith from? They've been through their share of battles as they've collected all this wisdom.
I have a friend; when he introduces me to people, he tells them I've been around the block a few times. That's a gentle way of saying I am "mature in the years." The truth is I've seen my share of battles also.
When the children of Israel were set free from 400 years of bondage by God's sovereign miracles, they left Egypt and took with them treasures that may have equaled or surpassed the value of any other nation in the world.
Yet, with all that wealth, they had no fighting skills.
So what did God do to prepare them for battle? e lined up small battles along the way.
Scriptures tell us that he led them away from the armies of the enemy that could have crushed them to more minor battles where they could practice their skills.
It was only when they were ready did they face the big boys. By that time, they were organized and practiced the art of war. They had learned faith in their God and skill with the sword, and no enemy could stand against them.
So the next time you ask the Lord why am I going through this trial or this battle I am in. You may hear him say back to you.
"IT'S JUST PRACTICE, MY PRECIOUS."

SHORT OF VISION? CLIMB THE NEAREST TREE
There is a lot of talk about Vision in the church world around the first of the year. What we mean by Vision is the ability to see down the road, as they say, and try to describe our destination. If you're behind the wheel of a speeding automobile, Vision is essential to getting to your intended target. A sudden fog bank will affect your journey because you will have lost your Vision.
If you happen to be journeying through the countryside and want to know what is ahead, you must find some high ground to see better.
We could say the higher you go, the farther you can see.
Take, for instance, the story of Zacchaeus. The scriptures tell us he was a short man trying to see Jesus as he passed. What did he do? He went higher, found the nearest tree, and climbed it. From that extended height, he could see Jesus; but most importantly, Jesus could see him. Something about going higher in the things that God loves, including his presence, gets his attention. You know, at the end of the story with Zacchaeus, he enjoyed lunch with Jesus.
We could say that Vision is a revelation of Jesus Christ and his plans for us in our future. To get this revelation, we must go higher into his presence and listen to his wisdom and direction for our lives.
Unfortunately, we seem content with having someone do it for us, then tell us what they saw and heard. That's what happens on most Sunday morning church services where hopefully, the speaker has gone to the mountain and listened to God. Then like, Moses, who was on the mountain, comes down and tells the congregation what God has in mind.
How unfortunate for the Israelites because they were all invited up the mountain to hear from God. But when they got close to the mountain, they became afraid, and they sent Moses up in their place.
Don't you think it's time for you to find the nearest tree or a mountain( or a prayer closet) and go higher and hear his voice for yourself?
I do.

BETWEEN HOPE AND DESPAIR, THERE IS JESUS
As I journeyed through the world I live in today; I heard many voices coming from all sides. Included in the conversations I heard were people that were concerned about the future of their lives and their families. As I listened, I deserved the voices of those who had hope for the future and those who had despair.Despair is an ugly master that sits on top of your head and shoves your face in the darkness around you. There's plenty of despair going around today concerning the future of our nation and the danger to our health.Because of this, suicide has become an epidemic among our young people, the very ones that should have hope for their future. Someone or something is poisoning their well.On the other side, I hear those who have hope; unfortunately, their hope is in man's ability to solve their problems. They seem to be looking toward a person or a group of people to save them from future disasters. False hope is the dirtiest of tricks that you can pull on someone. Because while they feel euphoric, everything will be fine, it's worsening.There is only one sure thing you can put your hope in, and that is the covenant promise God made to us through Jesus Christ. Hope in Jesus will never be disappointed and always produce what you've hoped for.Paul didn't refer to it as hope; he called it knowing. He was so assured that the promises of God would not fail him that he declared this statement that lives in our spirits and gives us courage."I know in whom I have believed in and persuaded that he can keep that which I have committed under him against that day." ( 2 Tim 1:12)Folks keep your eyes on Jesus and the power of the resurrection son of God, who is able to do for you beyond your imagination.

GREED MAKES A DANGEROUS MISTRESS
When Jesus said the love of money is the root of all evil, that pretty well describes how much of the world functions. Proverbs 15:27 tells us, "he that is greedy of gain troubles his own house." Indeed, greed makes a dangerous Mistress.
However, the spirit of greed is not limited to money; it can affect many other life functions. Greed can be described as never having enough of whatever you're looking at or desiring. It can affect the way you eat or the way you work. One more pork chop or just a few more hours of work can be orchestrated by greed.
Of course, we know that food is essential; it's necessary for life. And work is a part of who we are, accomplishing those things we love to do.
What does that mean when the scriptures tell us that greed troubles my house?
After years of a father giving his entire time to work, neglecting his children and his marriage, you may hear him say; well, I did it all for you. By now, his wife may be gone, and his children have been neglected to the point of brokenness because he had to work one more hour.
Some people blame the desire for more coming from poverty, never having enough as a child. I'm sure that could have something to do with it, but the enemy of our soul will use anything convenient to manipulate our life.
This is where the healing of the soul through Jesus Christ is critical. Greed cannot be your master if you have confidence in his supply and his plan for your life. Nothing can drive us into despair or ruin when our heart is healed, and our faith is restored because of our knowledge of his love for us.
Greed does make a dangerous Mistress, but Jesus Christ is the master of all things.

HAPPY NEW YOU-GET ACQUAINTED WITH THE NEW YOU
Today on this first day of the new year, I want to talk about the new you. As we celebrate the beginning of a new calendar year, those of us who have been through this several times have set up repetitive habits of celebration. Traditionally we have been taught to make New Year's resolutions, and in most cases, it simply means repeating the same ones you did last year that you failed in again. So we stand at the beginning of a new year and promise not to overeat, cut back on sweets, not watch television as much and read the Bible more.
And again, here we go setting ourselves up for failure one more time.
Why is that?
Because the natural man cannot rule himself or improve his character by outward action, the old man has died with Christ and needs to stay dead.
When we come up with more religious rules to improve our spiritual journey, we are giving medicine to the dead man in an effort to wake him up again.
The scriptures tell us in second Corinthians 5:17, "if any man is in Christ he is a new creature all things have passed away behold all things have become new."
Now notice in that verse the word "if." The word "if" is not a condition but a conclusion. It has nothing to do with what I do but everything with what Christ did on the cross and at the resurrection.
Because of his actions, all men were made new.
First Corinthians 1:30 "by God's doing we are in Christ." m/b
What does this mean to us today as we enter this new year?
It reminds us that we are not on a revolving calendar in our spiritual walk with God. He has made me new, and I stay new because of his grace. I do not come and go out of the kingdom of God like the seasons of the year change the leaves on the tree. I am in Christ, and I stay in Christ because his idea and actions made it possible.
If you can grab this today, my friend, you'll get off the merry-go-round of spiritual and emotional failure and know that you are in Christ permanently.
Happy new you, get acquainted with the new you.

ARE YOU LIVING ON HOLY GROUND?
Have you ever wondered why they call Israel the holy lands? Let's take a short journey through the history of the children of Israel and God's purpose for his creation.
Psalms 82 must be understood before we understand genesis 1:26. Because psalms 82 is one of the verses that describe the sons of God that were created before the world was created. These sons are in the divine class, which we call lesser gods. Their role in the spiritual world is to do the will of Jehovah, and they have been created with free will.
So when we come to Genesis 1:26, the group that God is speaking to are his heavenly sons, and he says," let us make man in our image." Therefore we have been created in the natural world with the same purpose that the sons of God in the spiritual world were created for; to do the will of Jehovah. And we also have been made with self-will.
Now, look at Genesis 6:1 to see the rebellion of a group of those lesser gods, God's spiritual sons, when they came to Earth and took the daughters of men for wives.
Because of that and the results that followed, Noah built an ark, and eight souls were saved; when the flood covered the Earth. God gave Noah and his children the same command he gave Adam. They should reproduce Eden and God's rule on the Earth. They were to fill the Earth with people of the same convictions that they had to love God Jehovah with all their heart.
But again, God's self-willed sons on Earth disobeyed and built one city called Babel.
This is when God stepped down to look to see what was happening and made the judgment to disown all the nations of the Earth. And he scatters them.
God decided to try it one more time with Abraham and chose his descendants to be his heirs of the promise. Their purpose was to do precisely the same thing that Adam and Noah were commanded to do. Reproduce after your kind and bring Eden back to Earth again.
Canaan land became the promised land which turned into the holy land. And as long as the Israelites honored and worshiped Jehovah as the only true God, the ground they lived on was holy. Because the ground was dedicated to the only true God, it was also protected by that same heavenly father.
Out of this promise, Psalms 91 was pinned." No evil shall befall you, or any plague will come near your dwelling.
Skip forward to the New Testament revelation, where Paul tells us that we are temples of the living God. Why? Because God has declared us holy ground and has moved his residence within us.
My friends, you're not only living on the holy ground; you are the very ground God walks on. He has declared you Holy, righteous, and worthy to dwell in.

THE VOICES THAT ARE NEVER HEARD
On one of our many journeys as a family, dad ended up preaching in Tonawanda, New York, close to Niagara Falls. So, of course, we couldn't miss the opportunity to visit that historic site. At one point, we found ourselves going down a tunnel that took us under the falls; what I experienced there as a teenager has stayed with me my entire life.
The roar of the falls filled the decimal range in our hearing, so there was no more room for the sound to enter our ears. Even if we screamed very loud into each other's ears, no understandable sound was registered. The sound coming off the following water completely saturated our ability. Do you hear anything else?
Our greatest gift from heaven is the voice that our heavenly father has given us and the free will to choose our own words. God has chosen us as independent players in his great army of created sons and daughters on earth.
The power of our voice and the words we choose to use have the potential to shape the very kingdom of God that we've been called into. The words we speak are alive and have the potential to create life or destroy it.
Scriptures tell us that death and life are found in the power of the tongue.
(Pro 18:21) and they that love it, she'll eat the fruit thereof.
Two things will hinder our voice and cause us to lose our position as creators of life in this great kingdom of God.
The first one is possibly the most crippling of all; the lack of use. Many believers have not been taught that their voice was meant to be used to change the world around them. Because of that lack of understanding, a considerable part of the army of God is mute.
The second thing that hinders our voices is the overabundance of sound around us that fills the atmosphere. Was so much white noise that we couldn't hear ourselves speak. Why even try? We think as we become discouraged and eventually quit speaking.
Today I call for the voice of the body of Christ to speak out loud and bold. In your mouth is the key to the salvation of the world. The apostle Paul declared that it was in the mouth of those that hurt him that it made the difference in the outcome of their life.
Use the greatest gift God has given you, the power of speech, to declare your and your generation's freedom.

THE NUMBER ONE REASON THAT PEOPLE FAIL-THEY DON'T LISTEN
Jesus said, "he that has an ear, let him hear." Whenever He made that statement, it was a heads up that something important was ready to be said. I've heard some preachers say, "do you have your catcher on." Give the audience time to prepare to listen; something good is coming.
One of the first things to learn as a successful pastor, counselor, or parent is to listen to those sharing their life with you. When someone begins to tell you about their complicated life problems, it's pretty easy to give quick answers.
You often think, well, I've heard this before, so to save time for everyone, do this, and you'll be better. However, as you listen and let them talk, most often, they will answer their problems. The answer will come if you give it time. It's not unusual in the people ministry that God has given me, as I listen, to do just that.
"Are you listening to yourself?" I often say, "That was a confession of your spirit speaking the answer."
However, things like that don't happen if you don't listen long enough because you will miss the big keys that make the difference.
After all, our loving heavenly father is the best listener of them all. We take up much prayer time by unloading our hearts to him. We confess things that have been buried deep within our souls. We cry over the grief that has not been expressed to anyone but him. We even complain at times about the slow service that Heaven seems to have, wondering where our packages are.
After it's all over and we feel better; now he finally speaks. Because he has allowed us to speak and he took the time to listen, we now have room to receive the words he gives us for our deliverance and healing.
So talk to the father tonight before you pull the covers over you heading for dreamland. Take time to express your heart. He will listen. When you're through, then you listen. That's where the fun begins.

PLAYING IT SAFE NEVER WON THE PRIZE
Satchel Paige, the first black American to break into National baseball and set many records, said this. "you will never be able to sneak to 2nd base if you don't let go of first base."
Just think for a moment how that simple statement fits just about everything you are challenged to do in life's journey. After all, the game of baseball does seem to illustrate life.
In life, we have a team called family and friends. In that close relation of the team spirit, we learn the game by depending on each other's skills to take the trophy home.
Coaches are given to us along the way to share their guidance and wisdom with us as a team. Some of them we call mothers or fathers; others could be pastors and teachers, but they all do one thing; transfer wisdom to us.
At some point in this game of life, we take our turn at the bat. This is the testing point of who we are; a risk taker or a safety player. Will we swing for the fence or try to make it to the first base and be safe?
They tell me the great Babe Ruth, who carried the home run records for many years, struck out more than he made home runs. He always swung for the fence because, in his mind, every time he was at bat, it was going to be another home run. The crowd loved "the babe" because, home run or strike out; he always was the same; he bowed to the crowd and showed them his love for the game.
You and I are in another type of game, an eternal one. We're on a team, the body of Christ. We have a coach, the Holy Ghost. We have assistant coaches all around us, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, and evangelists.
All of our coaches say the same thing. Take the risk and swing for the fence.
IT'S CALLED FAITH.

I HEAR THE SOUND OF HARVEST COMBINES
The farmer's work is never done, or so it goes. The farmer's work continues throughout the year from dawn till dusk in sunshine or snow. The one thing that encourages the farmer and his family to press forward is the promise of harvest time. The joy of harvest time makes it all worthwhile.
A surprising statistic from the state of Washington and Oregon is that we have some of the most extensive wheat fields in the nation. There is nothing more spectacular in the summertime than to see the harvesters coming in to reap those great fields of golden grain.
Because the fields are so gigantic and the time is so short for harvest because of the weather, a group of 10 or 12 combines will come in and go to work on one field. It's like watching a giant ballet perform as they do their magic harvesting food for a nation.
I woke up and heard the sound of a group of harvest combines coming toward me. The spirit told me the harvest is at hand, and the combines are coming.
For those who know the Scriptures, remember that Jesus said something like that when he said the fields are ripe unto harvest, but the laborers are a few, pray that harvesters will come into the field.
I believe the spirit is speaking to the church a prophetic word concerning the increase of harvest hands and combines that cover the field working together to bring in God's treasures.
It is always God's time for harvest, and he is not waiting for some future date to win the lost and turn the children back to their fathers. That is always in his heart.
The scriptures tell us, "today is the day of salvation."
David heard the sound of the army of the lord on the top of the mulberry trees. I am hearing the sound of an army of combines coming to the nations of the world and bringing in the greatest harvest we have ever known. Today is the day it's beginning. HARVEST HANDS NEEDED.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, AND WELCOME TO A NEW YEAR
As we gather around our family Christmas tree and sing the familiar songs of this wonderful season, let us remember who it is all about. Much of the world around us has been lost in the commercial celebration of Christmas and has forgotten the reason for the season.
Remembering today that Jesus did not come to give us better ideas, and he did not come as a teacher; he came as a savior. The world did not need knowledge or more inventions; it needed to be rescued by a savior that would change history forever.
The Christmas season is focused on the birth of Jesus, celebrating the prophecies that had come to pass and the miracle of his virgin birth. For those who know him as Savior, don't stop at the manger scene and the shepherds watching their flocks at night. As marvelous as that was, the big show happened on the cross, and the resurrection and the ascension of Jesus to the father.
So we say merry Christmas and enjoy the season with all the enthusiasm and fun we love. We exchange gifts, remembering the joy of giving, eating together, laughing together, and thanking God for the families that he has given us.
While at the same time, we hear the background, the old testament prophets with over 300 prophetic declarations describing the coming of this baby that we celebrate today.
For unto us a Child is born unto us a son is given, and the government shall be upon his shoulder. His name shall be called wonderful counselor, mighty God the everlasting father Prince of peace of the increase of his government and peace there should be no end. Isaiah 9:6

MAKE YOUR DOG HAPPY-GROW UP IN CHRIST
Have you ever caught your dog looking at you with a strange expression? Then you go through the litany of questions you routinely ask them.
Do you have to go outside?
Are you hungry?
Do you want to play with your ball?
When there is no response, you return to what you were doing, and your dog wanders into the other room.
If you really knew what your precious pup was thinking, it would knock you off your chair. Because she has had her eye on you for quite a while, wondering when you're going to grow up and become the son/daughter of God that your called to be.
You do know that it wasn't their idea, these precious creatures that we love, to fall from the place of their original creation when Adam and Eve committed their crime against God. As it turned out, it was something God had to do, demoting them as he did so that they would stay below the authority and functioning level of the human that God created.
Since that time, according to the eighth chapter of Romans, all of creation has been holding their breath, standing on her tiptoes, as it were, looking and yearning to witness the unveiling of the sons of God.
So the next time your sweet little pet comes up to you and gives you that look, tell them you, too, are longing for that day when the sons and daughters of God will be fully manifested and functioning in their complete design.
Meanwhile, on the human level, we continue to be obedient to the call on our life, that is, to be like Christ in all our actions and deeds. We continue to commit ourselves to seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, knowing that for all the things that the world strives for, God has his plan for that, also.
Rejoice, my friends; there are indeed great days ahead.

DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES
As I'm reading the eighth chapter of Romans again today, I have a flashback to my childhood and the games we played. As an all-American boy, I always carried my cap gun with me. And the dream of most of the boys in the 50s was they would have loved to be a cowboy or Davy Crockett.
Somewhere through most days, we would have a shoot-out with some imaginary enemy. One day it would be the Pirates; the next day, the renegade Indians or just robbers stealing our stuff.
The magic of those imaginary battles was that whenever I was shot moments later, I jumped up from the ground and yelled, "new man." Then, that new man would jump right back into the battle.
I thought of that again as the scripture tells us that our old man is dead. When Jesus died on the cross, we died with him because we were in him. So that when he rose from the dead, we also rose to newness of life.
Indeed we are a new man in Christ.
The wonderful byproduct of all that has taken place is that our body now has no dominion over us; therefore, sin does not reign in our mortal bodies.
Unfortunately, sin and the subject there has become a cottage industry for the Church. Much of the focus that comes from our theologians, i.e., teachers and preachers, is overly focused on sin; things we should not do, and what the sins are.
As a young Pentecostal Christian, it was very simplified for me because they gave us a detailed list of the sins. We didn't need the Holy Ghost to convict us; all we had to do was read the list.
Paul reveals to us in Romans eight that we have been freed from the tyrant of sin and are duty-bound to live in the sunshine of righteousness.

DON'T FORGET WHAT YOU SAW IN THE MIRROR
There's a term we use once in a while for people who are always looking inward to see who they are and what they are. We called them "naval gazers."
When we do that, we quickly find things to be discouraged over because of our human tendencies. As we gaze at ourselves, we lose track of who God made us and why he made us.
In the book of James, the first chapter, we are reminded that the word of God is the mirror that we look in to see our genesis. As we gaze into the word, we understand that we are a reflection of Jesus and made in his likeness.
However, James also warns us that many walk away from that mirror of the word of God and forget who God made them.
There is such a thing as false humility. We hear it in too many places in the Church. Statements such as "I'm just a sinner saved by grace." That statement sounds very pious at the outset, but it still ties us to our past.
The current reality is that I am a son of God and a joint air with Jesus Christ.
I am also aware that I am dead to sin and alive to righteousness.
But you say, how could that be true? I just failed again today.
I say back to you, "just get over yourself," and step into the reality of what God has made you and your purpose on this earth.
Go back again to the word of God that reflects the real you, the face of Jesus in that mirror. Then step into your destiny and be who God has called you to be.

There is such a thing as false humility. We hear it in too many places in the Church. Statements such as "I'm just a sinner saved by grace." That statement sounds very pious at the outset, but it still ties us to our past.
The current reality is that I am a son of God and a joint air with Jesus Christ.
I am also aware that I am dead to sin and alive to righteousness.
But you say, how could that be true? I just failed again today.
I say back to you, "just get over yourself," and step into the reality of what God has made you and your purpose on this earth.
Go back again to the word of God that reflects the real you, the face of Jesus in that mirror. Then step into your destiny and be who God has called you to be.

THINKING PATTERNS ARE FORMED BY REFERENCE-EITHER FLESH OR SPIRIT
The scriptures tell us as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.
Romans eight and six in the mirror Bible makes the statement; thinking patterns are formed by reference. If you think on the flesh, you will be addicted to the flesh and suffer the consequences of failure and death.
However, if you think on spiritual things, you will enjoy tranquility of the soul and eternal life.
As obvious as the choice seems to be between life and death. It still takes the Holy Spirit to illuminate this truth in our hearts so we can believe in Jesus and receive eternal life.
My encouragement to you today is that you become addicted to spiritual thinking and not flesh thinking.
When you do, you will reap the harvest of spiritual thinking. The mirror Bible says; Tranquility flowing from my mind addicted to spiritual realities.
Philippians four and eight give us a "God list" to think from. Then it tells us if we think on these things, we will not be moved.

WILL THE REAL GOD PLEASE STAND UP
Judgment and wrath or mercy and grace. Which one can we expect from our heavenly father today? According to a disproportionate amount of preaching that we have heard from the pulpits of our nation, we can expect God to be full of wrath and judgment today.
Why?
Because we broke one of the many hidden laws, we didn't even know about. Such as evil thoughts, wrong actions, and even simple mistakes. According to some of our church background, you and I have been axed out of his love many times for the slightest infraction.
How many times have you heard something like this?
"God doesn't love little boys who hit their sister."
"God doesn't love you if you swear and take his name in vain."
Well, I'm sure you could probably fill in the blanks with your own story. Some of the teachings we had growing up in the church convinced us that any alteration from a strict set of rules would put God in a bad mood. And, of course, someone would quote the verse about not "falling into the hands of an angry god."
I never could figure out why God was always so angry. Then I would say something humorous like maybe he fought with his wife before he came to the office. Of course, I knew that wasn't true, but I got a laugh out of it anyway.
Better to laugh than to cry when you're dealing with an angry god.
If you've read this far into my thoughts today, you realize by now that we don't have an angry god; we have a loving heavenly father who will never stop loving us.
According to Roman in the eighth chapter, there is nothing you can ever come up with that will stop or even hinder in any way the love he has toward you. And as long as God's love is there for you, redemption and forgiveness are always on the table for the taking.

KICKING THE CAN DOWN THE ROAD
For the past 200 years, the church, as we know it, in our western evangelical theology, has had one primary message. Hurry up and get saved because Jesus is coming any minute. Then when we do get saved, they sit us in a seat to listen to the unending messages about waiting, waiting, waiting.
After a while, we begin to wonder, what in the world are we waiting for? Many traditional churches have put off to the future just about everything Jesus bought for us at Calvary. In some cases, it seems like death is what it takes to receive peace, healing, or understanding. And, of course, "when we die, we will see Jesus."
Two hundred years ago, the Plymouth brethren came up with a brilliant idea through a so-called prophecy that has given us this whole "kick the can down the road" mentality. The theories and speculations of the end times are endless as they wander through the Bible, looking for reasons to wait, wait some more, and some more.
However, the scriptures clearly give us action words such as "go into all the world and preach the gospel." These are commands of participation in a plan that God has to capture the world and bring it into the heart of Christ.
When the Scriptures give us the command "to occupy" until Christ comes, it is not a sit-down and wait for word; it's an action word. When a conquering army comes into a nation during a war, they occupy it. And because they do, they have the authority to bring it back to its purpose as a nation by restructuring all the things that have been destroyed.
As sons of God who have been sent from his heart to this earth, we have been commissioned to bring this world back to its rightful place. Under the submission to God, we are returning to the original plan that he reestablish through Jesus Christ.
You have all the tools today; you need to do what God placed you on this earth for. So let's get off the "rapture bus" bench (that may not happen by Thursday) and go to the work we have been called to. We are reconciling men and women back to the father.

IT'S TIME TO SPEAK UP OR LOSE YOUR PLACE IN THE LINE
In my background, a person who would not speak up for themselves would be called a "mealy mouth." I'm not sure if that's a real word, but everyone knew what it meant. From the kid on the playground to the fearful housewife, their life became a living hell because they didn't speak up.
Our current culture has a term that says, "see something, say something." I think that pretty well frames the thought God dropped in my heart to speak of today. It's time for us to cry out to the Lord and the society around us.
During the years that Hitler's Germany prepared for the second world war was a slow erosion of social norms and private liberties. A Pastor named Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who eventually gave his life in resistance against the Nazi party and Hitler's oppression, made this statement famous.
Speaking for the church, he said, "when they came for the Jews, we said nothing; when they came for the gypsies, we said nothing. Then when they came for us, there was no one to help."
We have lived in a bubble of self-denial that it could ever happen to us. But today, we face the same challenges by the voices that have risen around us demanding that we say what they want us to say and agree with what they believe in.
A law in the Old Testament said if a woman was raped and did not cry out, she became guilty of the same sin. I can only imagine why they wouldn't cry out; the fear of retribution or shame, all those things would be at play.
Today they are calling us names, trying to intimidate and bring shame.
We still have a voice that goes directly to the Father; it's time for us to cry out.
We still have the ability to speak up; when we see something to say something.
I guarantee that cowards will always back up and run if you resist them.

THOUGHTS BETRAY SOURCE; SPIRIT LIFE ATTRACTS SPIRIT THOUGHTS
Take a look around you for a moment. Everything you see close at hand and far away started in somebody's thoughts. From the simplest toy your child may play with to the most complicated technology of our day, someone had a thought.
The jails are filled with men and women because they had thoughts that lead them into crimes. And so it is with our spiritual leaders in all their positions of leadership, and they are there because they had a "God" thought.
The scriptures tell us there are some things we should not waste our thoughts on, such as the provisions our heavenly father promised us. He has already promised them, so don't be frustrated thinking about a plan to get them. Matthew 6:25, then, on the other hand, there are thoughts that we need to take hold of and cast down. We are to bring every thought under Christ to the obedience of his word. ( Second Corinthians 10:5)
You and I are to meditate upon the word day and night. That sounds like an impossibility. Yet Paul told us to pray continually. How is that possible? It's possible because not all our thoughts and prayers come out of our conscious awareness but rather out of our spirit, man.
Remember that our father has made us a spirit just like himself and has given us a soul and body to dwell in. The thoughts that bring life come out of our spirit, not our head or mind. I'm convinced that is where idle words come from out of the empty minds of men when we meditate upon God's word and fellowship him in the spirit that is direct food for the spirit man.
Put a guard on your mind and watch your words change. When your words change, the direction of your life will be altered, and you will see the fulfillment of God's purposes in your life.

WHY PROGRESSIVE REVELATION?
Did you know that no scriptures in the Old Testament describe that the promised Messiah would die and rise from the dead? Oh, I know plenty of New Testament writers reflect on scriptures adding their revelation to them. But the Old Testament saints did not know that.
WHY?
Because God used a mixture of missed direction and progressive revelation to bring about total victory at the right time, do you see where first Corinthians 2:6 Paul tells us that if the rulers of this world, both natural and spiritual, had known this, they never would have killed the son of God?
So we see that God hides certain things until the season is right to reveal them.
Look at Luke 24:44. Jesus joined his disciples after the resurrection and opened their understanding of his death and resurrection. As Israelites, they were not taught this, so they have no revelation as yet.
Because the scriptures tell us that it is line upon line, here a little and there a little, that is how revelation comes, and when it does, we must be careful and sensitive to be obedient to what we have received.
The scripture says if you are obedient, you will eat the good of the land. And if you're disobedient, you will dwell in a dry country. The continuing unfolding of the mysteries of God that we call revelation has everything to do with our obedience to what we know now.
The word of God tells us that if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we will have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Christ will cleanse our sins.
So join me today as we rejoice in what we know. Revel in your knowledge and understanding in Jesus Christ because it is your foundation for unveiling tomorrow's mysteries.

THE REALITY OF LIVING AS A SPIRIT BEING
If there is a phrase that captures the American society and that of the political west is the phrase "living life in the fast lane." Most of us have learned to hit the ground running when we wake in the morning, and we keep that pace until we fall into bed at night. Even those of us who have met Christ and know that we are different people have a difficult time losing the culture we live in.
So when the preacher tells us we are new creatures in Christ, often we say yeah, that sounds good, but I've got to pay for the bills and send the kids to College. So our nose is still at the grindstone, and we have little time to think about who we really are in Christ Jesus.
So let me state clearly as I prepare for this video.
You're not human anymore. I know that's a shock; let's face it, you've been born again by the spirit of God. Think it through for a moment; what does that mean to you?
You and I are new creatures in Christ Jesus, and that new creature is a spirit being sent from God. We have a soul and live in a body. That body and soul are our tickets as a spirit been to function on this earth and do the will of the father.
The term sons of God is not just a catchy phrase we put on a banner; it is the reality of what God has performed in us as people.
So after the smoke settles from the realization of this truth, ask God for revelation on who you are and what your purpose is in life.
Don't worry; you still have to pay the rent, raise the kids, and love your wife or husband; that part doesn't change. But you do all of that out of a different source. A Heavenly one.

THE POWER AND PURPOSE OF DOING THIS FIRST
I had a glorious yet short-lived baseball career in my youth. Mr. Dunn from Dunn's grocery sponsored our little league hardball team. It was a summer in the middle of the 1950s when summer seemed to last forever. So I joined the team and began to learn all about baseball.
The first thing I learned is that a whole bunch of rules go along with playing the game. And if you don't keep the rules, everything falls apart. After a while, I finally found my sweet spot in baseball. Seeing that I was small in stature, the coach discovered I was really good at bunting the ball. That's when you barely hit the ball far enough so that Fred can run in from the third base and score a run while you try to make it to first base.
I can't tell you how many times I got creamed out on first base. And of all the things I learned about baseball, they first taught me that if you don't touch first base, nothing else counts. You can run all the way around and come into Homeplate, then hear the umpire shout you're out because you didn't touch first base.
Spiritually speaking, that's the same principle that works in the kingdom of God.
The father has given us so many marvelous and unbelievable things that we can enjoy and live in the midst of. Peace of mind, prosperity of soul and finances, and a happy home. Yeah, none of those things will come to their fullest development unless we touch first base first.
No wonder the scriptures tell us to seek ye first the kingdom of God, and all of these things shall be added to you. (Matthew 6:33) It's the same principle as the farmer and the seed, and the farmer must first put the seed in the ground before he can expect to harvest.
Today is examination day. Are we putting first things first in our life? Ask the Holy Spirit that question; he's faithful to give you the correct answer.

AWAKEN YOUR DESTINY
Here are some questions that you may ponder as you watch the video today.
Why did god send you to this earth?
Why did he send you at this time in history?
Most people that interact with you will never ask themselves these questions. The current worldview that our society has is very self-centered and focused on the moment. We definitely are in a "me generation" mentality.
According to the popular rhetoric that seems to be the loudest is there are only two types of people.
Number one there is the oppressor.
And of course the second one is the victim.
What you are can change with the social current, somedays it's the rich CEO that runs the corporation. The next day it's becomes the color of your skin or the nation that you're from.
Victims have a wide array of opportunity that they can pick and choose from.
Personally I grew up as a victim.
I was forced to wear jeans with holes in them before it became a fashion item.
I had to wear glasses when people would call you four eyes and laugh at you because of it.
I was also height impaired so I never could pursue my basketball career.
Then to top it off I was a Pentecostal and looked down on by other more refined religious organizations.
So what did I do with my victimhood. I met Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit and he awakened in me my destiny and purpose for being on this earth.
I discovered that he had laid out a course for me to travel on and complete. And he gave me a ministry of reconciliation that I was to be faithful to.
Now I am no longer a victim. Because of Jesus Christ. I am now more than a conqueror because of his love.

JESUS IS NOT AN EXAMPLE FOR US, BUT OF US
The book of Romans is an amazing revelation that God gave to Paul of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Not everyone in the early church accepted Paul as an apostle or his gospel as trustworthy, and the church in Rome was among that group.
So we have the book of Romans that Paul laid out before them, detailing the revelation of the gospel the Spirit gave him. Interestingly enough, he gave this to my woman by the name of Phoebe. She became a spokesperson for Paul as she went through the churches in Rome. As a side note, she was also a lawyer and a woman of renown.
Because of this remarkable book, we have a clear, detailed, yet simple pattern of the purpose, procedure, and fulfillment of why Christ came; and the Family of saints that he birthed.
Romans 8:1-2 has been a linchpin scripture for me since I was a teenager. The revelation of this beautiful passage of scripture has been the foundation I have stood upon my entire journey as a believer in Jesus Christ. Without understanding this vital revelation, my path would've been much different.
I believe Romans 8 is one of the big guns that will knock out the Spirit of religion in a person's life; if you have to build your relationship with God upon works and the things you do to please him, you are doomed to fail.
Thank God we have the revelation in this great verse( Rom 8:1-2) that everything that could be used against us for condemnation has been removed from our history because of Jesus.
So rejoice with me today as we spend some time listening to this revelation God gave Paul out of the book of Romans.

WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS TO BE SELF EVIDENT
We call it natural law; some would say the law of nature or common sense. It's just the way life works. For instance, take the law of gravity. Let's try running that through the Supreme Court to see if we can change it. How about the law of seed time and harvest? Let's find some federal judge to change that one.
Try this Jesus parable on for size.
And the farmer went out and decided not to cast his seed on the ground, and when he had no harvest, he sued the city for lack of funding.
Does that sound familiar with the current society were moving through? They have one thing in mind; doing away with God and his natural law.
Our founding fathers said that we were endowed with these natural rights from our Creator. The mind of man thinks they can take their Creator to court and change his laws.
That just doesn't happen, folks.
So let's hold on for a bumpy ride while God our Creator readjusts the focus that this world has back to embracing God's laws already established on earth.
The scriptures tell us that the nations will rage and imagine a vain thing. How about that for a prophetic snapshot of what we're experiencing today? What could describe a generation of arrogant people who think they can change human genetics through willpower?
That just doesn't happen, folks.
Therefore we hold steady, focused on the Lord and not the storms. If you keep your eyes on Jesus, you're guaranteed not to sink beneath the waves.
If you feel yourself sinking, re-focus on Jesus; he'll get you back to the boat.

ALL OF CREATION CHEERS OUR SONSHIP
The subject of the garden of Eden is always an intriguing experience when you begin to see into the revelation of God's purposes. The garden of Eden seemed to be the connection point between heavenly places and earthly places.
Adam and Eve had a direct command from the father to reproduce on the Earth what was in the garden of Eden.
Their command was to bring order back to the Earth, repopulate, and shape its future. In cooperation with their work was all the creation that God had made. It's evident by what Paul says in the eighth chapter of Romans that the creation also suffered demotion when Adam and Eve fell.
Romans 8:21 in the mirror Bible tells us that creation knows they will be released when the sons of God take their place on the Earth. Just think about our effect on creation when you consider that God has restored us to the original call and commission.
In the book of mark 16:15, Christ gives us the same commission that our father gave to Adam and Eve. God commissions this generation of sons and daughters to bring order to this world once again. We are to heal the sick, raise the dead, and have no fear of poison and dangerous animals. We are in control because of God's commission to us.
Sound far-fetched?
Now you're getting the point. We are beyond human; we are sons and daughters of the living God.

THE PURPOSE OF A POWER NAP
I hated naptime as a kid. If you have children, you probably know that's not very unusual. Who wants to lie down in the middle of the day when there's so much to do outside?
My mother was much smarter than me, and I didn't realize how much when I was five. She made a deal with me that she would lie down next to me at nap time, and if she went to sleep first, I could get up and play. I don't ever remember winning that competition.
For some reason, my dad would nap on the living room couch. We always had a hand-crocheted afghan over the back of the couch, and he would pull it over him and take a snooze.
And, of course, everyone took a nap Sunday afternoon because we had to be fresh and bright for Sunday night service.
Our friends South of the border have what they call a siesta. In the more traditional nations, everything shuts down at noon, and the workers go home, have lunch and take a nap before returning to work.
It seems that God was the one who created the first naps. For instance, Adam took a nap, and when he woke, he had a wife named Eve.
Abraham took a nap and had an encounter with God concerning a covenant.
Jacob took a nap and was introduced to the angels ascending and descending from heaven to earth.
Jesus took a nap, and it gave the disciples their first lesson on how to quiet the storm.
Peter also took a nap and was taught of the Lord concerning the gospel going to the Gentiles.
To sum this up, dreams have shaped human history like nothing else. Much of the direction given to our old testament saints came out of naptime.
If I had to guess God's logic in this procedure, I would say it's an excellent way to get us out of the way, so we don't interfere with the directions he's giving us for our journey.
Naptime anyone?

PLANNING AHEAD-DOES GOD KNOW YOUR TOMORROWS?
Does God really know the future and what will happen to us in our life?
That sounds like such a silly question to ask on a Christian broadcast. Doesn't everybody believe that God knows every detail about the future because he has set it in motion and predetermined its outcome?
Now hold on a minute; that sounds like a dedicated Calvinist believing that the sovereign God controls us like a puppet.
Or we could be an extremist on the other side of that subject that believes that man is totally in control of his destiny by his faith or actions.
But back to the question, does God know the future?
Yes, I believe he does, but here's another question: Does God control the future?
The answer to that one is, no, he doesn't; you do.
To expand on that statement, let me tell you the difference between foreknowledge and predestination.
God certainly has foreknowledge, but he does not predestinate or set the outcome of your life in place. The actions you take in life determine the outcome of your life.
Foreknowledge is God's desire for you, and that's where the basis of personal prophecy comes from. Hearing that prophecy only becomes fulfilled when you act upon the directions you were given or the knowledge you have to obey.
My understanding of how heaven operates is that when someone prophesies or predicts disaster and dark events, it is not set in stone; it is for our alert that we may change the outcome through the authority he has given us.
If you have dark dreams and see disaster, don't take that as predestination; take it as a warning so you can do your part through prayer to change it.

YOU CAN'T HIDE MATURITY
Desire and maturity are not the same; however, they go together. The desire to be a great baseball player gives energy that causes training and practice. At some point, a dose of talent and practice pays off, and the baseball scout suddenly discovers them.
That rule guides most of what we do in our natural life. The miracle ingredient in our American dream is that you can be anything you want to be if you apply yourself toward that goal. Some of the largest corporations and companies in our nation are being led by CEOs that started in the Mailroom.
They all had one thing in common. They had a combination of desire, ambition, tenacity, and faithfulness. Then add the ingredient of time, and you will have success.
It's not unusual for a new convert to the Christian life to expect everything to happen in one prayer meeting. An untold number of people became discouraged after the prophecy conference because their prophecy did not come to pass by the end of the month.
A prophecy given to you is in the same family as desire; both demand a dedicated Vision, never taking your eyes off the desire you have to accomplish.
Maturity of spirit and character is the same as putting a seed in the ground; give it the proper water and sunshine it will produce what you plant. If you plant the desires of your heart and stay faithful to the task with an ongoing relationship with the father, your seed will come up bountiful.
You can't hide maturity everybody around you will notice it when you enter the room.

FREE FROM SIN AND ITS MEMORY
When the scriptures tell us to have a renewed mind, it refers to the mind of Christ. Part of the conversion process is a change of thinking. Because of that, the greatest battle you may have is not outside of you, such as temporal temptations but inside, concerning your thought life.
If the enemy of your soul can keep you trapped in the memory of your failures, then for all practical purposes, you are stuck in your development as a Christian. This isn't something that hinders your eternal dwelling place in heaven, but it does cripple you for your purpose on earth.
Much of our church background has made us very conscience of sin. We are reminded in the sermons we hear and in our conversations about the things we should not and must not get involved in because it is a sin.
If you live with a sin consciousness, you will continually find fault with yourself.
And the guilt that will produce will drive you away from God.
Hebrews 10 tells us that God has forgotten our sins and failures.
Because we have the same abilities God has, we can also have our memory of those failures washed away and gone.
This is why Romans 8:1 declares to us there is, therefore now, no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus.
Today we declare that we are sin-free, and because of that, the memory of it has been taken away, and we are no longer guilty. We do not have a guilty conscious we have a sin-free conscious.
The scriptures tell us, "he who the son sets free is free indeed."
Enjoy your freedom, my friend.

THE IN-BETWEEN TIMES
For those who have lived for a while, we quickly discovered that life is not one long party or vacation time. Somewhere in our youth, our good parents forced us against our will to clean our rooms and brush our teeth, which may be the first indication that life is not one long playground experience.
When we saw dad leave early in the morning and come home dirty and tired, we had no clue what he was doing all day. All we knew in those days was there was always food on the table, and the house was warm at night.
Then shock of shock, dad tells us that if we're going to have our car, we have to get a job and pay for it and also pay for our insurance.
Now life is getting scary. Do you mean I have to support myself now? What's this thing coming to?
By now, you're also catching the point that I'm talking about our spiritual journey. Our spiritual journey becomes one long party time when we discover that Jesus loves us and abides in us of a truth. It's revival time every day. Oh, how I love those sweet memories.
However, just as it is in our natural life, so is it in our spiritual life.
What we discover about the spiritual walk we're on is that the greatest maturity happens to our character in the in-between times.
Ephesians six and 14 tell us that after we have done all of these things, were to stand and be firm. That's where spiritual maturity begins to shine when no one is looking, and we still maintain the strength of character and focus on the vision before us.
The in-between times are given to us by our heavenly father, so we may have time to recoup, regroup, and be strengthened in the Holy Spirit for the journey ahead.
Only God knows the challenges, and it allows us to prepare for them in the quiet times of our life.
WHEN THERE ARE NO PROPHECIES OR VISIONS, DREAMS, OR ANGEL VISITATIONS, IT'S THE BEST OPPORTUNITY EVER TO LAY YOUR HEAD ON THE CHEST OF CHRIST, JUST LIKE THE APOSTLE JOHN, AND ENJOY THE JOURNEY.

WHOSE FAITH DO YOU LIVE BY? YOURS OR GODS? #978/ WITH DR. GEORGE WATKINS
In the third chapter of Galatians, Paul challenges the church with this question. "Who has deceived you? You started in the spirit and now want to go into the flesh again?" Paul spoke to a group of people who had lived under the Jewish law of works, ceremonies, and a priest.
When the good news of Jesus and his sacrifice on the cross came to them, they eagerly got on board and believed the message of freedom. Unfortunately, religious bondages and traditions are hard to break, and it wasn't long before they were trying to please God with their works once again.
Paul calls this a deception of the devil.
You and I today do not live under the old covenant; we live under the blessings of the new covenant, which is completed by the work that Jesus did on the cross and resurrection. We do not live by our faith now; we live by his faith.
Galatians 3:20 reminds us that we live by the faith of the son of God, who loved us and gave himself for us.
Because this is true, it changes everything we may have been raised in regarding our background in church and the teaching we received in our childhood. If you pay close attention, you will find quite a list of things you must do to please the Lord. And if you keep looking, you will find something that will displease him if you do them.
That's what we call the tradition of the elders, and it's all wrapped around you working your way into the favor of God. Here's breaking news for you it doesn't work that way.
Jesus Christ was all the favor you ever needed, and it completely pleases the father. And because you died with him and Rose with him, you are part of the family, and that never changes.
So enjoy yourself today and let the sunlight of his love warm you all over.

I REFUSE TO REACT TO AN OUTCOME THAT HASN'T HAPPENED YET
Why does the scripture tell us not to fear or have any anxiety about anything?
Simply stated, it's because what we fear will come upon us.
When you fear something, you are, in essence, worshiping that item or that entity.
Worry and anxiety are just another form of fear for someone in the baby stage. This is why the scriptures tell us not to have any other gods before us.
Do you think that's a little severe?
Well, put it this way when you fear, you are an essence bowing down to the thing that is stirring your heart toward fear. You had put yourself in the place the ten spies did when they went into Canaan land. They confessed how small they were and how big the Giants were. Because of that confession, they did not go back and conquer Canaan. Instead, they doomed the entire company of Israelites to 40 years in the desert and death for everyone over 30.
Your reaction to what is predicted Will shape the outcome of that prediction.
Just because someone said sickness is coming, and layoffs at the company or hand do not mean it will happen.
If you stand up on your faith legs and decree the outcome, you will see miracles happen in your life.
My friend, you are the prophet of victory, not the prophet of doom.

YOU CAN NOT BE LOST UNLESS YOU BELONG
In the book of Luke, the 15th chapter, we find the story of three things that were lost and found again. The first was a sheep, and the second was a coin. And the third one was a lost son that we referred to as the prodigal son.
Each of these represents something of value and something that was treasured.
In the illustration of the lost sheep, the shepherd values each sheep equally. If you don't understand the shepherd's heart, you may say I've still got 99 sheep, so I'm not going to make an effort to go after just one lone sheep.
However, the heart of a shepherd has a totally different feeling toward that sheep because it's his and valuable. So he searches until he finds it.
The second illustration finds a valuable coin lost in the house.
Notice it's lost in the house, so the lady of the house sets everything aside, searching everywhere until she finds it. Someone says I have other coins, and I'll find that other someday; after all, it's in the house. But the owner of this coin valued that so much that she searched until she found it.
Remember now Jesus is telling these stories about God and you and me.
We are the lost sheep, and we are the last coin, and we are the prodigal son.
Also, remember that we belong to him; he owns us; we are not our own; we are bought with a price. Jesus bailed us out of the devil's pawnshop and returned us to the father's house.
That's precisely what happened when he rose from the dead and took his blood to the father for approval. And God said that's enough.
I love the prodigal son story because everyone can relate to that in some way. Jesus said we, like sheep, have gone astray; every one of us has wandered off somehow. The story is not only about the sun; it's also about the father who loves the sun so much that he waits at the gate day after day for him to come home.
If this prodigal son's father was anything like my heavenly father, he sent a servant to keep an eye on that boy and knew where he was day and night.
That's precisely what your heavenly father has done; he sent his angels to keep charging you and bring you back to your full position as a son and a daughter of the heavenly family.

THE DAY AFTER
I thought I would take just a few minutes today to give some instructions about the day after, coming from someone who has had a few of them. Among the many things, we desire in life are our celebrations and parties for those of us who love the church and the community of people that go to church; that's where we love to party.
Large anticipated camp meetings and great revival meetings are fantastic times of life for those who love the kingdom of God. So it is with national holidays where families often get together with games, food, and fun. These essential activities fill a particular part of our soul and spiritual life, and we need both to complete our life.
So let's party on.
However, at some point, we realize we are still in our mortal bodies with a limit to their energy. We often have a physical and emotional letdown after the party is over or the convention is closed. It's somewhat kin to a sugar high when the body crashes, and you can't stay awake.
So because I have learned the hard way, let me give you some simple tips for what to do the day after.
The simple answer is that we need to recoup what we have lost in physical energy and emotional strength. We need rest, food, and a renewal of our spiritual man to do that. Because our spirit is the source of our power, we need to feed our spirit first and always. When that is satisfied, everything else will flow together.
So this is the day after we celebrated with our families and friends. We forget our diets and overeat. We probably even talked to some people that we didn't like that well or, to be fair, didn't know that well. And you see how that wears us out.
So today, we give ourselves to meditation on the word of God and his love.

THE POWER OF A THANKFUL HEART
Happy Thanksgiving to you all. Today we celebrate as a nation what we call Thanksgiving day, and President Abraham Lincoln declared this unique national holiday in 1863. On the third Thursday of every November, the nation will take time to remember the goodness of God and be thankful.
I don't believe it was a coincidence that less than two years later, the Civil War ended on May 13, 1865. If I know my biblical history, I would say that an angel of the Lord came to Abraham Lincoln, spoke into his ear, and gave him those directions.
Based upon what I also know about the principles of the kingdom, what you honor will come to you. So during the greatest struggle our nation ever experienced, a seed of Thanksgiving was planted in the very womb of this nation.
Can you imagine the thoughts of the American people when Abraham Lincoln declared a day of Thanksgiving? Looking around them, they thought, how could there be anything to be thankful for? Look at the death and destruction all around us.
Knowing the human soul, I can imagine the despair and hopelessness that the nation was experiencing. Yet the angel of the Lord gave a directive to the nation's leader; turn the people toward a thankful heart, and this nation will be saved.
Today we are also in the middle of a divided nation. One side of the nation is determined to follow their own way and deny God himself. It is exhibited in the policies they try to push into law. They have been gripped by the hand of the deceiver who has always been opposed to God himself. If we continue down this path, we will lose our nation forever.
On the other side are men and women of faith in a God who has promised that he will be with them through all the trouble they will ever have. They remember the founding fathers and their dedication to this nation to Christianity so that it may be the light of the world. Many on this side don't propose to be Christians, but they live by Christian principles such as loving one another and freedom of movement, thought, and speech.
If a spirit of Thanksgiving could turn the Civil War and bring victory, I believe the same spirit of Thanksgiving in this nation today will break the back of the deceiver that has tried to grip us.
In Philippians 4:6 it gives us three keys that will unlock our future through prayer;
It tells us to pray with supplications and Thanksgiving.
Then Colossians 2:7 admonishes us to continue in prayer and watch with Thanksgiving.
Let this Thanksgiving day be an outpouring of the Spirit of God into this nation once again.

CHANGES HAPPEN WITHOUT ASKING PERMISSION
It's picture time in our schools in town and so some of my grandkids are getting their picture taken for the first time. The first thing that I noticed while looking at my little granddaughters picture was how cute she is the next thought was how she has changed.
Changes happen even without our permission. Wait a minute I didn't tell you to grow up so fast. Of course I've been around long enough to know that you can't stop lifecycles from happening.
Some changes in life are really good for us. I'm really glad I'm not 10 years old anymore. I'm sure it was all right at the time but I was sure looking forward to becoming 11 in November.
Our spiritual life has some of those same cycles as we develop as a Christian.
At some stages of our development we would like to stay there forever because it's so wonderful. But without our permission the spirit of God pushes us off balance so that we have to move forward.
I figured my faith was sufficient for where I am everything's going well then suddenly a crisis comes along and I need more faith to overcome it.
So change happens and I suddenly am realizing my faith life is bigger than it used to be. And somehow it happened without my permission.
I am constantly reminded that my father is still in charge of my life even though I pretend like I am at times. He has called me and ordained me to be a son of the most high. And most of the growth that I will get as a journey toward that destination happens without my permission. He does all of this because he loves us.
When we quote John 3:16 and remembering how much God loves us so that he sent his son to die for us. We sometimes forget that it wasn't just for our salvation; it was for our sonship also.
The prodigal son in Luke 15 not only came home he was was also totally restored to his full position in the Family business. You and I are not only coming back to the father through salvation we are being restored back to our original position before the fall.
So rejoice in the changes, embrace them with joy and enjoy the journey.

DETERMINATION TRUMPS WEAKNESS
Well, there you go again, preacher; you sound more like Tony Robbins than you are the apostle Paul today. Well, I beg your pardon, but the truth be known, I sound more like Solomon, "the wisest man who ever lived."
You know how I know that because Solomon warns us about being lazy and slothful in the book of Proverbs. If we stay in that condition, we will starve to death.
Solomon told us in proverbs 6:6 go to the ant thou sluggard and consider her ways and be wise.
v.7, which having no guide overseer or ruler
v,8 provides her meat in the summer,
And gathers her food in the harvest.
v.9 how long will you sleep or sluggard?
When will you arise out of sleep?
v.10 yet a little sleep, a little slumber,
A little folding of the hands to sleep:
v.11 so shall your poverty come as one that travels,
And you're want as an armed man.
So you see, Solomon was around a long time before Tony Robbins or any other promotional business that you may see.
So let me say it again:
Determination trumps weakness.
Consider the weakness Jesus was in when he faced the cross for a moment. No one in history has ever been where Jesus was at that moment. He literally carried the weight of the world on his shoulders.
Hebrews 12:2 tells us how he overcame his weakness and the abuse that had come to him both soul and body and won the prize.
First of all, he was determined to fulfill his heavenly father's will.
To do that, the scripture tells us that he set the joy before him as a target.
When you have a purpose and set the goals, you want to hit. Then invite God into the process, and Joy will take you through.

THE HAPPIEST YOU IS YOUR BEST GIFT
When the apostle Paul was dealing with the gifts of the spirit, he said, "we should use our best gift." There has been a fair amount of discussion on the best gift, and let me see if I can help you out today on that question.
The scriptures tell us in Proverbs 17:23 that a merry heart does good like medicine.
Then Jesus tells us in Matthew 25:23 that the highest gift that he could give us for being faithful to our call and purpose is what is referred to as the "joy of the Lord."
It's my opinion the best gift you can give someone else is a happy you because the best gift you can give yourself is the joy of the Lord which brings a healthy soul, body, and spirit.
When you are grumpy sour, and mean, you affect everyone around you. So it is when you are happy and joyful, the whole room is filled with the spirit you carry.
If you keep yourself happy in the joy of the Lord, you're able to bring others along with you. So, rejoice and be glad for the Lord thy God is with you and will never leave.

THE SUSPECT IS IDENTIFIED AS A SON
If someone was to ask me what the greatest weakness in the body of Christ is today, my answer might be surprising. Much of our church history, in modern times, is focused on social and moral sins that keep us from going forward with God. For me not to agree to that premise draws a fair amount of criticism, claiming I favor those sins, which is not valid.
The Church has almost made a cottage industry by identifying all the things you can't or can do. As a young Christian, I knew exactly what I couldn't do, and it was some time before I knew what I could do as a Spirit-filled redeemed man.
So my answer to the question why is the Church is spiritually retarded when by now, 2000 years later, we should be dominating every culture on the earth.
It's a one-word answer.
Identification.
In general, the body of Christ does not know who they are in Christ and that they are sons of the most high God with all privileges in rights.
When the spiritual infants grow up and begin to live like adult sons in the kingdom, we will see the Church in its rightful position on the earth. We will shape history for the ages to come when that takes place.

GOD'S FULL-COURT PRESS
My basketball days are long behind me, and most memories of those few times I played have faded. I suppose my height had something to do with not being interested in basketball. Baseball was more my game, and I remember the summer leagues I was in; what fun.
Then came my boys when they played on the basketball team in their school days. I made a lousy fan because I can't stand losing. As long as we were ahead in those games, I was a happy camper.
So in those days, I learned what a full-court press was. That's when the team all get together in their positions, push down, and make a basket. At least, that's my memory of it.
I woke up in the middle of last night, and God dropped these words in my heart; God's full-court press.
Then the Holy Spirit began to blow revelation on those few words, and I could hear the spirit of God telling me God has a plan for the situation we're in, and we're going to score.
Big Time.
I'm sure you know God doesn't watch the news to see what he will do next, like some of us. You might say he has his finger on the scale and knows the outcome.
So encourage yourself in the lord and know that the things you hear from the lips of people with no spiritual source are all empty and foolish.
Today you need to hear this scripture quoted one more time;
Trust in the lord with all of your heart, lean not unto your understanding in all your ways, acknowledge him, and he will direct your path.
So there you go, it's a done deal.

COME HELL OR HIGHWATER
When the spirit of God dropped that on my heart today, all I could say was, father, you have a sense of humor. What in the world am I going to do with that?
As usual, the Holy Spirit always has a plan that takes a little time to reveal itself.
So it was long before it came tumbling into my mind, and we did a great program around perseverance, determination, never giving up, and a dozen other things that would have God's fingerprints all over it.
When someone would say, "come to hell or Highwater," we would immediately know that they intend not to let anything stop them from reaching their intended goal.
That sounds like what Jesus meant when he said, 'love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and all I saw all that I might and I neighbor as thy self.'
So our confession today is this, no matter what comes our way, despite all the opposition, the shortcomings, and the lack of funds or strengths, we will serve the lord, come hell or Highwater.

YOU ARE THE GLOVE ON GOD'S HAND
Our spirit of generosity is among the many differences between us as a nation and the other nations of the world. We have long been known as the most generous givers to needy causes at home and abroad, and we have fed countries and defended nations.
Even in the time when war swept around the world and destroyed so many nations. When it was over, we were the ones that restored those nations.
Many inquiries have been made, and so many in-depth studies have been recorded trying to find the key or secret behind the American people being so generous. The secret is straightforward, and to those who understand spiritual principles, it is easy to find. We are generous and love to give because our heavenly father is generous, and we are made in his image.
Like father like son and daughter.
The spirit of generosity for those who understand the heart of God that is in them is released in more than just money and things. When the Red Cross calls for volunteers after a disaster or hurricane, thousands of American citizens travel far and wide from their homes to give their time to someone in need.
The spirit of Christ is the spirit of giving. He gave himself as a sacrifice for us, and we are like him. In all reality, we are the glove on the hand of God that reaches out to those in need.
When we shake someone's hand and greet or lay that same hand on someone's head and heal them, it is God's hand in our gloves doing the work.
When Jesus prayed in John 17, we would be one with him in the same way that he and God the father are one. The results are a Christian people and a Christian nation with the same loving generosity God the father had when he gave Jesus to us as a savior.
John 3:16 rings out loud and clear in this holiday season that we are entering into; for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believe it's on him should not perish but have everlasting life,
For God's sake, not his son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through him might be saved.
Be that glove to someone today.

LIMITLESS GRACE
THERE ARE NO LIMITS TO THE POWER OF GOD THAT ENABLES US TO BE LOVED.
When I think of the Grace of God, I instantly hear the old church song: "Grace, Grace, gods grace, grace that is greater than all my sins."
Within the last 30 years, controversy has been brewing in the body of Christ concerning what they call the Grace message. Several voices have been raised worldwide that teach us about Grace beyond the limits of our traditional theology. Or at least the denominational world that we were raised in.
In the season of my life, I am in, I have come to the conclusion that many of my teachers didn't have the whole story when it comes to some of the doctrines they were teaching.
However, to be fair to them and us, we can only walk in the light we have and be judged by that same light. But if that's where we stay, we will miss what God is revealing today to the body of Christ. And one of the subjects he is unfolding is the understanding of limitless Grace.
The apostle Paul seemed to have a pretty good grasp of Grace when he told us that all things were lawful, but not all things were expedient. Unfortunately, that revelation is somewhat cloudy to us in this generation.
The little bit that I understand about that verse is that God does not judge us on the same scale; we judge ourselves, especially in the religious setting. As a young boy in the Pentecostal movement, I could've gone to hell for going to the movies or the Pool hall. To say that now seems laughable, but it was serious business in the small theological world that we lived in.
So today, I embrace the Grace of God that gives me the power from heaven to understand and accept his love. And when I know his love, I will never be involved in the things that displease him. To me, that's the only safety barrier that I need to walk out his will in this life. The only law that you cannot break is the law of love.
God loved us first, and he will love us always.

STEADY EDDIE- FAITH FOR ALL SEASONS
Among my favorite stories of fables and myths from our childhood is the one about the tortoise and the hare. As the story goes, the hare, or as you may say, the rabbit, was speedy and always witty. The second character in this fable is a turtle, slow and boring. One day they decided to have a race to see who was the fastest one in town.
Everybody laughed at the turtle even entering the race, let alone thinking that he could win this one. On the other hand, the rabbit was bragging about his incredible speed and taking congratulations even before the race began.
On the day of the race, when the gun went off, the rabbit zipped off over the horizon before the turtle could even get out of his shell. Well, if you remember the story, you already know the outcome. The turtle won the rabbit lost. How in the world could that happen?
I'll tell you exactly how it happened because I see it daily in the Christian world. In all reality, the rabbit in this fable goofed off and took time off play the fool. Meanwhile, the turtle kept plotting one step at a time; he never slowed down and never quit.
He's what we call "Steady Eddie."
I have watched it for years in the church and throughout the body of Christ, where those that should have won the race have lost it because they were wasting time. They didn't achieve their goal and won the race because they were slow or without scale and talent. The plain fact is they didn't get there because they took too many detours along the way.
It seems they have the attitude that God will take care of it no matter what they do.
Well, here's a news flash for you. God already took care of it on the cross and resurrection, handed the keys to you, and said go to work.
If there ever was a day that we needed steady Eddies in the church and our national leadership teams, we need them today. Those that keep plotting one step at a time until the race is won and the battle is over.
I believe we will win in our spiritual conquest and national domination if we are the "Steady Eddies of our day."

IS SALVATION ENOUGH? OR IS THERE MORE?
I can still hear my mother hollering at me as I reached for the cookie jar just before dinner. "George, stay out of the cookies; it will ruin your dinner."
To be honest with you, that really didn't make any sense to me, and I figured I was getting a head start on dinner with this wonderful cookie in my hand. Of course, I was too young to understand the chemistry of the body and the makeup of the system that keeps us alive. All I knew was that I saw that cookie and wanted it.
Strange as it may seem, just the other night, while I was heading for the crackers, I heard my wife say, George, dinner is just about ready; don't be nibbling. So there's something within us that desires to be satisfied with small things or the emergency application of something to satisfy a pain or hunger.
By now, I understand the need for nutrition and a well-balanced meal, and if I satisfy myself with a cookie, I won't have the desire to sit down at a full dinner.
Over the last 65 years of active ministry, I have prayed with multiple thousands of people that have come to the altar or raised their hands, indicating they wanted to receive Jesus as their savior. We rejoice in the number of conversions, yet we wonder where many disappeared after they accepted Jesus.
I will not second-guess the Holy Spirit on these occasions or judge those who have received Jesus by their outward actions. However, I am suspicious that many have taken Jesus as a cookie instead of a full meal. The experience of being saved has satisfied them enough to where they find no need to go any further into the kingdom of God.
This breaks my heart because I know the potential in each person who comes to Christ.
I am convinced that salvation is essential for everything we do, but if that's where you stop, you will miss the purpose of salvation, and that is that we might become in the fall likeness of Jesus Christ.
If you may be at that point of discovery, ask the Holy Spirit to take you into the mysteries that lay ahead. The mysteries of Christ. The mysteries of godliness. If you follow the Holy Spirit into this wonderful journey, you will be fulfilled in the purpose God has planned for you.

DON'T WORRY - BE HAPPY
Today I would like to interest you in some health tips. Most of our time together has to do with our spiritual walk. However, today I want to talk about your health and well-being, something that will give you long life. And while I'm at it, I will undoubtedly throw in a few spiritual principles along the way. There's a catchy phrase IN a famous movie when the hero of the movie says," don't worry about it." Our Australian friends down under have a catchy phrase that says, "no worries." Hidden beneath these simple statements is a profound principle of life and health that God has woven within the fabric of our human DNA. Worry, anxiety, frustration, and fear belong to the same family. In reality, these are commands from the Lord. Why would he command us not to have any anxieties about anything? Well, let me ask you a question. Why would your doctor tell you to go home and not worry anymore about your situation? Take two aspirins and a nap, and you'll feel better. Ok, you get the point. Our heavenly father is our divine doctor telling us this is how your body operates; if you worry, you will be in trouble physically. Why is that? Well, honestly, it's just the way he made us. It makes just as much sense to leave the oil out of our engine when we go for a ride in our automobile. Then we asked what had happened, and I didn't think that oil was necessary. However, the maker of that automobile and the engine said it was necessary and gave instructions to keep it full and fresh every time you went for a drive. And so is when our heavenly father says to have no anxieties or worries about anything. This command is not a heaven or hell issue, but if you break it, you may get there sooner than you think or even would like to. So today I will give you a tip. DON'T WORRY - BE HAPPY

GOD DRAWS STRAIGHT LINES WITH CROOKED STICKS
There is a very curious statement about David in acts 13:22 that declares he was a man after gods own heart and would fulfill all of the will of God. At first blush you scratch your head and wonder about a statement like that when you consider the history of David's life. Yes he had some mighty victories from time to time but he also had some major losses and failures. That is if you include murder and adultery.
Yet we have the Scriptures plainly stated that he would fulfill all of the will of God. How could that be since the majority of people believe that God only uses perfect people?
Perfect people? Are there really any of those around that you know?
It's like the old joke that says, when you found the perfect church it wasn't perfect anymore because you showed up.
Take a quick survey if you would in the Testaments to see if we can find those perfect people that God used to change history.
Abraham tried to pawn his wife off on the king as his sister.
Moses ended up murdering an Egyptian hoping that he could deliver the children of Israel with that method.
Gideon was hiding in a cave trembling in fear until the angel found him.
Even the great apostle Peter denied Christ as he was led away to the Cross.
The man who formed the foundation for the New Testament doctrines apostle Paul was a killer and a marauder of the Church.
All of these were crooked sticks that somehow God drew a straight line with and shaped the history of the world and gave us our foundation of Christianity.
Now with that in mind get up get dressed put your best face forward stop listening to the lies of the devil and your own self doubt and do the job God has called you to do on this earth.
You may be one of those crooked sticks but if you'll turn your self over to the Holy Ghost God will know how to draw a straight line with you in the sands of time.

STAY IN YOUR LANE AND DO WELL
I am sure you have heard this statement before, "a jack of all trades and an expert at none." That's the world's view of people who fly from job to job like a butterfly in the springtime, somewhat like the five-year-old that wants to be a fireman, policeman, and astronaut all in one week. Only now, that five-year-old is 40 years old and still trying to find himself.
I was coming home with Arlis last night from the store, and while navigating a turn with cars on each side of me, the spirit dropped this thought in my heart.
Stay in your lane George, and you will do well.
I closely watched the white lane on each side of me and trusted it to keep me safe from the moving metal on each side of the car. I had confidence as long as I stayed in my lane, I would be fine.
Of course, the spirit of God had more to say about it than just getting home safely. He was talking to me about the path of life we take and the gifts he has given us to fulfill. Some of us want to do so many things at once in the kingdom of God that we don't get much done.
Why would that be?
Most often, the gift that God gave us that we should be exercising in so that it would grow is not as glamorous as somebody else's gift next to us. So we say to our self I'm going to do that for a while, but it never seems to come to a good conclusion.
The apostle Paul said that when we come together, one has a tongue, another has a prayer, and then someone else has a teaching. And when it's all mixed together, it brings the glory of God and the revelation of Jesus Christ to the people around us.
Every one of us has been challenged to stay in our lane until we are strengthened and developed. I wanted to be like Oral Roberts, but God had other ideas. Just like you, it took time for me to find myself and be happy, as they say, in my skin.
I encourage you today to stay in the lane God has put you in, and you watch, prosperity will come, and you will excel in it.

FIVE THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT GOD
Did you know that wisdom and knowledge are a spirit, not just an idea or a perception of things? When we understand that wisdom and knowledge are spirits and that our father has created them to work with us and bring us to our maturity. We then realize that our father planned for our success through the spirits he has provided for us to bring us to our happy conclusion.
When God said, "let us make man in our image," he also described their purpose and abilities to fulfill his purposes on earth. However, God did not put his children on the planet as orphans to struggle alone without divine assistance.
We are not alone. The multiple layers of spiritual beings that God created to help us hit the target and fulfill our purpose are beyond our imagination.
These are among the things we need to know about God.
He is the master architect and understands perfect planning for the future.
When he created you, he said, "it was good."
I am convinced that our biggest enemy is not the devil but our religious preconceived ideas of who God is and what he has in mind for us.
If you don't believe that God is on your side, as the Psalmist tells us, then you will live your Christian life with a dark cloud over your spirit, wondering if God is going to fulfill his promises or if he is going to fail you.
The scripture refers to a double-minded man that will not receive anything from the Lord. The person with a double-minded attitude toward God is suspicious of the very one who has given him life, freedom, and peace.
Today I want to talk about five things you need to know about God.
- God's not mad at you.
- God's not in a hurry.
- God a happy God.
- God will bring you to your maturity.
- God loves you unconditionally.
If we can capture these simple truths and carry them in our spirit, it will revolutionize our journey in the Holy Ghost and the spiritual world God has given us.

WE ARE THE MOP-UP CREW GATHERING THE SPOILS
When you consider your Christian walk and your daily encounters with oppositions that come your way, have you also considered Christ's total victory over the enemy?
Much of our modern theology has a mixture of victory and defeat woven through it. Yes, we speak of Paul's revelation of "Christ in you the hope of glory." And we remember, "greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world." And we hear echoing through our soul, "I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me."
Yet somehow, the theology of God and the devil duking it out is still being heard in some of our congregations. We conjure up the picture of the struggling Saint stumbling through life, hoping they don't get taken out by the enemies' attacks.
This would be a good time for us to refocus and see the clear picture of what Christ actually did for us at the cross, resurrection, and ascension to the father. It seems that I remember somewhere in Paul's teaching that Christ actually won the victory over the enemy and sealed the new covenant in his blood. Then he went as far as giving us authority over all the things the enemy would try through his name.
Then for the final witness of total victory, he sent us the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost as a witness that the father had accepted him as the perfect sacrifice.
With these thoughts in mind knowing that Jesus had perfect victory, should not we, as the army of Christ on earth, have a different tactic? For instance, if the enemy is defeated, our job would be to bring the spoils and bring them home.
That's precisely the position we have in the kingdom we are in today.
We are the mop-up crew going into all the world and declaring the total victory of Jesus Christ over the enemy and bringing the good news that everyone has been freed from death and hell.
Come home; the father's waiting for you.

THE POWER AND PURPOSE OF DREAMS
The gospel we know and perceive is like an onion; it has been put together in layers. And just like the onion has to be peeled back one layer at a time, so does the understanding of the gospel of Jesus Christ. If we are pursuing the face of the father, what we know today about the kingdom of God will be expanded tomorrow.
I often ask the Lord why I didn't tell you this sooner and why I had to wait so long to understand this particular revelation. Of course, most of the questions we ask we usually know already because the scriptures tell us that it is line upon line here, a little in there, a little, indicating that the revelation of Jesus Christ is, as we might say, in layers that must be peeled back one layer at a time.
So it is with the subject of dreams and visions. We have been taught in our early days that acts 2:17 refers to Joel's prophecy about old men dreaming dreams. Was that they were remembering the old days and dreaming about them.
Now we understand a different perspective of that scripture and begin to grasp a hold of the power of our dream life. The scriptures are full of visitations from God and angels in the dreams of men and women of old. They were guided and warned and taught spiritual principles as they slept at night when dreams came to them.
I encourage you to open your Spirit to understand the depths of your dream life and invite God to visit you at night. Remember, what you honor Will be attracted to you.
How often have we heard one of our Bible teachers tell us all that it was just a pizza dream? In reality, God was trying to break through to your Spirit and soul in dreams.
There's a reason that God put Adam to sleep when he created Eve out of his rib. It's the same reason God can speak to you in your dreams: you are out of the way and will not interfere.
So happy dreaming.

THE POWER AND PURPOSE OF ASCENDING
The modern evangelical world has been robbed because of the prolonged use of the word rapture and ascending. For nearly 200 years, we have been taught that these two words are exclusive to the coming of the Lord and the end of the world. This exaggerated overuse of the focus on this post-pone rapture has caused the church to miss out on one of the essential tools we have to function as kingdom sons and daughters.
A spiritual experience called ascending is beginning to be experienced by men and women worldwide. You may be more comfortable with the word stepping into the presence of the Lord. Others, such as prophet Bob Jones, said he went to heaven five times a day.
However, you expressed it there is a place that many Christians have never visited called "the heavenly's." The apostle Paul said he went into the third heaven on one of his experiences.
We talk of dreams and visions, and yet we never question where we are when experiencing this level of relationship with the spirit of God. In what realm are we? There are many levels of spiritual experience outside of our world.
John the revelator, who was on the island of Patmos, said he was "in the spirit on the Lord's Day." We modern charismatics would say, "we were having a good time on Sunday."
Yet when he turned to see who was speaking to him, he was taken into a world of revelation and visions concerning Jesus Christ and the kingdom of God.
What is your heart telling you today, and what is the desire you have to seek his face and follow his ways? Are you singing the same songs yet feeling unfulfilled? Are you praying, yet you never seem like you're touching the father's heart?
Ask the Holy Spirit to catch you away, go higher into his presence, and listen to the sounds of heaven; you will never be the same.

THE POWER AND PURPOSE OF PROPHECY
The two questions that I hear most often about the subject of the prophet and prophesy are;
What is prophecy?
Are there prophets alive on the earth today?
To give you the short answer, prophecy declares the will and the word of the Lord to those around you. I know there's a more extensive Biblical interpretation of that but simply, stated, when you preach the gospel or testify of your salvation, you are prophesying God's grace and mercy to those at listen.
You are predicting an outcome that cannot come about any other way but by the grace of God when you declare he will forgive sins.
That's the power and the purpose of prophecy.
In the book of Corinthians, Paul said that we all should prophesy. So there's something so wonderful about the ability to prophesy that God gave everyone who believes the ability to be involved.
Are there profits in the land today?
I think I just answered that question unless you're looking for the old testament prophet with the long white beard and the staff breathing fire down upon rebellious people.
There are prophets in the land that speak the word and the purposes of God, making a difference in the outcome of the church of Jesus Christ.
The prophet is someone who sees down the road; we call them the "headlights" of the church.
The teacher picks up the prophecy and lays out a spiritual path for the church to walk on to fulfill the prophecy. The intercessors get involved by taking the prophecy before the Lord in prayer, believing that the word of God will come to pass.
Scriptures tell us that if we believe the prophets, we will prosper. The congregation catches the prophecy by faith and together receives it from the Lord.
Catch the spirit of prophecy for yourself today and begin to declare your future to be God's will and filled with Victory.

THE POWER AND PURPOSE OF FORGIVENESS
What does the bartender, the Catholic priest, and the hair beautician have in common? You're right. They are points of release for the innate desire of men and women to confess to someone or tell them the story of their life.
Actually, it's just the way God made us. When he wired up our internal system, he gave us a conscience that forces us at some point to confess and talk about the things we have done.
This is what is so important and powerful about the act of forgiving and forgiveness. Actions committed against us that cause negative feelings will produce a seed of unforgiveness in our souls. The only way we can be free from that, according to God's plan, is to forgive those who have offended us.
When we do, two things happen:
First, we are free from the bondage of bitterness, resentment, anger, and hatred. All those are byproducts of an unforgiving spirit that would capture us and stop us from developing our life and spirit.
Secondly, when we forgive those who trespass against us, God goes to work on those who have cheated or wounded us in any way. He is not after their destruction; he is after their redemption. God always works toward life, not death.
If we don't forgive, we are held in bondage, and the person who has offended us continues to be bound up in their lifestyle.
This is why Jesus said in the book of Matthew that when we let forgive someone else, we are forgiven in return.
It's a beautiful deal.

THE POWER AND PURPOSE OF WORSHIP
When I was a kid in our Pentecostal churches, we used to call it a song service, and it was always first with three hymns and two choruses. Our song services were quite lively in our Pentecostal traditions, with plenty of praise and shouts of hallelujah. It was almost certain in the churches that were sensitive to the Holy Spirit that after we sang for a while, we could feel the presence of the Lord increase in our singing.
Most of us didn't know why we did it this way; it was passed down to us by those who raised us in the Lord. I imagine we considered it normal and felt if it was good enough for our fathers, it was good enough for us.
In 1948 we had what they call the latter rain movement that came to us from Abbotsford, Canada, via Australia. With it came a deeper understanding of the gifts of the spirit and what we know now as praise and worship. Little by little, the revelation of worship began to seep into our Pentecostal churches and other denominations until the charismatic movement blew in on us by the wind of the Holy Ghost.
It was no longer just a song service now, something we could get out of the way so we could get to the "good stuff." The praise and worship time began to be the essential entrance into whatever took place in that particular service. We begin to be taught that as the singers went ahead of the ark of the covenant in the old testament, so now worshiping saints would go ahead of the preaching of the word of God in our New Testament churches.
We discovered a new depth of revelation as we taught the word because worship had opened the heavens, just like in Solomons's temple when they dedicated that great gathering place of God's glory.
Worship and praise are really a sound of heaven reflecting through the voices of human believers who have been born from above. Most often, words are not even needed to communicate the worshiping hearts that gather at his throne.
It is my conviction that we are at the precipice of a new level of praise and worship that's coming to the church of our day. Just as dramatic and wonderful as the latter rain style of worship, this new season in our spiritual journey will blow our minds away.

NO PAIN, NO GAIN- IS SUFFERING THE MAGIC BULLET?
The consensus of theology passed down through the ages is that suffering is one of the primary vehicles that take us to godliness and maturity. Because of this misplaced emphasis on suffering, the church and generations past have made institutions out of the art and method of suffering.
The Catholic Church, which dominated the scene for a millennium, perfected the art of suffering that developed the monasteries and the multiple brands of spiritual orders that produced a method of seeking God through sacrifice and suffering.
This is a classic example of a good idea that turned into a good idea and ended up as bondage. Whatever we take something that God originated and start tweaking it so it will improve and get bigger, it always turns into self-works which equals dead works.
In plain language, Jesus suffered for us, so we don't have to suffer. Do you think it would improve your salvation to put you on the cross? Of course not. Do you think your righteousness would be better if you had a car wreck or lost your house through foreclosure? No, a thousand times no.
Everything that could possibly be done to make us who we are as righteous sons and daughters of God has been accomplished through Jesus Christ on the cross and at the resurrection.
You can whip yourself, break your leg and carry a wooden cross everywhere you go, and it won't improve your standing with the father.
However, that's another subject if you want to gain patience and improve your faith. James 1:2 has the boldness to inform us that we are to count it a joy when we encounter trials and all sorts of Temptations. I call this God's spiritual gymnasium, where we pump up our muscles.
This is the exercising of our faith which brings us to maturity of strength and spiritual insight that will position us to be wholly furnished unto all good works.

THESE ARE THE DAYS OF HAMAN'S GALLOWS
When the enemy prepares a trap for the righteous, the trap they prepared eventually becomes their own demise. One of the most important lessons you can learn in life is that if you walk upright and speak the truth in love, God will take your defense and defeat your enemy.
This is what makes unforgiveness and revenge so deadly to those who carry them in their soul. Even though they have moral and legal reasons for unforgiveness, if they try to bring about the destruction of their enemy, God will not fight their battles; when you do that, you are on your own.
The prominent ruler in the book of Esther, Hamon, had it in his mind to destroy the Jews and those who supported them. So he set about to sway the king and, in the process, built the gallows for the Jewish leader to die on.
If you know the story of Esther and her promotion to be the nation's queen, then you know that Hamon was hung on the gallows he built for someone else.
The principle of this story is that if we focus our attention on loving God and loving our neighbor even though we have deadly enemies all around us, God will defend us and bring us to victory.
David declares in the 91st psalm that even though 10,000 people would fall all around us, we would not be moved. Even with deadly arrows and death and destruction close at hand, God will fight our battles for us.
Look around you today at our national scene, and you will see various groups of people building gallows to hang God's people on. They have risen against Christ and his church, thinking they can once and for all get rid of us and stop our message.
Keep the faith, keep your focus on Jesus, and let your love be the fuel that powers your engine.
History will testify of the faithfulness of God to his children once again.

THE HOMECOMING MESSAGE
Home, just the mention of that name brings a piece to my heart and comfort to my soul. When we think of home the memories flood in of the good times around the Christmas table and the birthday parties of our early days.
No wonder the slogan" Home is where the heart is," is so popular.
When we begin to realize that our real home is not just heaven it is God our father himself. Many Christians when they talk going home they're referring to the streets of gold, the mansion on the hilltop and endless life.
I contend that the draw we have in our soul and spirit toward home is because we have been called back to the father through Jesus. The scriptures tell us in second Corinthians 5:19 that God himself was on the cross calling us home and giving us a favor where we were without favor.
Now there are no excuses or barriers between us and the one who created us; our heavenly father. Because of the cross and resurrection we now have the golden ticket to get in the gate and sit at the table with the captain of the ship and enjoy the journey.
Because of that our message is simple and direct to the point.
God is a happy God and he's looking for you to come home and when you do the party starts.

WE HAVE BEEN ADOPTED INTO GOD
Have you ever had a dream that you were walking down a dark street alone?
And every house that you look at is dark and lonely. In the dream, you keep walking, looking for someone that would take you in and give you a warm place to stay. Just the mention of that makes me sad.
The apostle Paul said that we were strangers and aliens cut off from the commonwealth of Israel, yet because of Jesus Christ, we became sons and daughters of God.
Ephesians 1:4 tells us that in his love, he chose us before the foundations of the world that we should be holy, set apart, and blameless in his sight far above approach.
Again in Galatians 4: 4, Paul speaks of the subject of adoption when he says,
"but when the proper time had fully come, God sent his son born of a woman born subject to the law to purchase the freedom of those who were subject to the law that we might be adopted and have Sonship conferred upon us be recognized as gods sons.
Let this truth sink into your spirit as you meditate upon these verses tonight.
The power of this truth will revolutionize your faith life and your emotional life.
Because we have been adopted into his family, he has given us all the rights and privileges of sons and daughters. We have total access to the father's treasure house and every other room in his grand heavenly palace.
He tells us that no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.
That's you, and I adopted into the heart and family of God.

THE REASON WE STRETCH BEFORE WE CLIMB
THERE ONCE WAS A MAN WHO WAS CELEBRATING HIS ONE-HUNDREDTH BIRTHDAY. He was the talk of the town, for no one around had ever reached that high plateau of age before. When interviewed by the local newspaper, he was asked the question. What is your secret?
He said, "well, sonny."
"Every morning, I get up at 5 AM and run 5 miles before breakfast.
Then I do 100 push-ups and 100 sit-ups, and that's before I go to the gym and work out with weights for the next two hours.
The young reporter was a gasp, how long have you been doing that, sir," he asked.
The old man answered, "well, sonny, I start tomorrow."
Somehow that story sounds very familiar to some of the promises I made in the early days of keeping me fit as a spirit. "I'll start tomorrow" could be the theme of many of us who plan to claim the heights of God's revelation and walk with the angels.
Somewhere along our journey, desire has to be mixed with action, and when it does, we reap the benefits of growth and maturity.
However, God is greater than our weakness, so He has provided a surefire way to get us to the other side of the lake. Even though the storm comes and we fear for our lives, he has already declared that we will go to the other side.
How does that work? He has provided a built-in program of exercise called trials and problems. This forces us to stretch our muscles, resulting in patience and long-suffering. At some point, according to James 1:3, patience will bring us to be perfectly and fully developed with no defects lacking in nothing.
This is why we stretch before we climb.

LIFE- THE SHORT VERSION OF A LONG JOURNEY
Have you ever heard anyone say, "the earth is eternity's dressing room?"
The first time I heard that I was preaching in Washington, DC, for an old family friend. It was the first years of my evangelistic ministry, and I had ventured out to the East Coast. Everything was new and exciting, and all I could see were good things ahead of me as I traveled this road of life.
When I heard that statement, I thought it was catchy and cool, so I made a note of it. Over the years, as I would preach, I would use that statement again if the occasion needed it.
"The life your living is eternities dressing."
I had no idea how true and powerful that statement was in those years.
To experience life is to experience God. Everyone who breathes air, whether they've never been close to a church or introduced to a Christian, experiences God every day. Why is that?
Because our heavenly father is no respecter of persons, all those with the spark of life in them who have come from the father's bosom are dear to his heart. That's the very essence of John 3:16.
"for god so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son."
The apostle Paul tells us that nature speaks of God. The scriptures tell us that every man and woman has a witness in their lifetime, and I believe Jesus appears to every person sometime in their life with the opportunity to believe on his name.
When you investigate the parallel between earth and heaven, you'll realize that they are the same in many ways.
The pattern God gave for the tabernacle in the wilderness was a copy of the heavenly tabernacle. It was a preparation for men and women to be able to step into the heavenly's by touching the earthly.
When Jesus came, he came to exhibit the father, and he was the prototype of God on earth.
Then because of the cross and the resurrection, we have been made like him so that when we see him, he will be like us.
Life is indeed the Short Version of the long journey, eternity.

INFUSED KNOWLEDGE
The 23rd psalm is one of the great pillars that reveals our relationship and our journey into God's house and heavenly places.
"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want."
Let the Holy Spirit capture you with the revelation and power of that extraordinary statement. Believe that he is indeed your Shepherd. The good Shepherd who never loses a sheep. And if they stray, he finds them and brings them home.
Please note how secure you are in that great truth that he will never leave or forsake you. He was with you always.
Because of that, I have no wants. Everything that I need, both physically and spiritually, has been supplied to me by my good Shepherd.
The revelation of this great truth does not come by studying the scriptures with the natural mind. You cannot comprehend it by attending multiple teaching sessions and listening to great Bible teachers.
This is infusing knowledge.
It comes from the Holy Ghost. This level of understanding and revelation of the kingdom of God is downloaded into your spirit as you fellowship the father. Meditation and prayer are common understandings for us to fellowship with the father. But don't allow that to end your journey into the heavenly realms. If you open your spirit to this infuse knowledge, the scripture says in John 14:23 that he will teach you all things and bring all things to remembrance.
In John 2:27, we learned that this anointing would teach us everything.
It's time for a new heavenly download of the loving father and his purpose for us in this life and the future.

DELIGHT- THE HAPPY GOSPEL
The Bible as we know it today was not written to the unbeliever but to those in the family of God, first as Israelites and then as new creatures in Christ.
The most obvious reason is that it takes the Holy Spirit to give revelation to the word of God; those who have not opened their heart to Christ have a problem receiving that revelation.
The instructions in the word of God are to teach and train us so that we may exhibit God and his heavenly message to the world. Unfortunately, we have a long tradition in the Church presenting the gospel in judgment, describing a god ready to crush anyone who resists.
We scratch our heads and wonder why the world doesn't come into the Church. When they come in, we're talking about "the last days" with death and destruction and "blood up to the bridal of the horses." When we preach to unbelievers, we say 'turn or burn." We describe hell to them instead of showing a loving father who sacrificed his all so that they might be brought back to his love.
No wonder this young generation doesn't want to come into a church that talks about death and dying. They are looking for an experience of life and the joy of fellowship with people that actually like them.
The secret that the Church has reserved for a special few is that God is actually a happy God, and it's his desire that we enjoy the Christian life.
A little exaggerated, you say. Maybe so, but you get the point that we can't scare this generation into the arms of God by talking about the end of the world, etc.
Love is nurtured by delight.
Psalms 37:4 tells me that I am to delight myself in the Lord, and if I do, he will give me the desires of my heart.
So it is in proverbs 15:8 that tells me that our prayers bring God delight.
What does delight mean?
The noun= a high degree of gratification or pleasure-Joy
The verb= to take great pleasure
I love what proverbs 11:20 tells me that we are his delight and joy.
Just think about what we're missing if we don't enter that place of delight, spending time in the arms and the presence of our father, God.

IS THE WILL OF GOD A LOCATION?
The old song of the church says, 'I'll go where you want me to go, dear Lord. I'll be what you want me to be." Among the desires that rise out of the new convert is a desire to please the Lord and to do what he wants them to do. That is a result of a submitted spirit and a yielded heart; all I want to do is please the father.
Then the challenge begins. What is the will of God for me, and how can I fulfill that will or purpose? Unfortunately, a fair amount of our mentors, those who teach us the way, are not entirely free from the worldview of the church and the kingdom of God. So, Alas, big is better, and the more power you have, the more you can get done for God. A big church, an extensive TV ministry, a ton of books, etc.
The world view that the church often looks through tells us that the will of God for you is where you go and what you do. And if you go to the right place and do the right things, you will please God and be in his will, his purpose for your life.
So when we are introduced at the preachers' convention, someone says this is brother Fred he's got 300 in his congregation.
And this is brother Bob; he's got 6000 in his congregation.
Guess who gets to preach at the convention and sit on the front row, brother Bob of course, because he has proven the worldview that the church has that big is better.
So if the will of God is not a location or a big and powerful ministry, what is it?
Jesus had a simple way of bringing truth into clarity.
We are no longer striving to live by the 10 Commandments, which most people fail in. Jesus said forget that that's dead and gone.
Here are the two Commandments that I give you.
Number one," love the Lord thy God with all your heart, soul and strength, and mind." Luke 10:27
Number two "Love your neighbor as you love yourself.
That is the will of God for you today, my friend, and when you complete that, everything else falls into place. When he told us to go into all the world and preach the gospel, it's only accomplished because we love people, not because we have power or gifts.
We can love because it's God's love in us that we give out.

THERE IS SAFETY IN THE NAME OF JESUS
The story is told about a missionary woman who was asked a question by a group of American Christians. The subject was divine healing versus the world of medical advancements. They ask her, " what is the difference between the faith of the African versus the faith of Americans when it comes to believing in God for your healing?
Her answer was quite shocking for the modern American Christian who has the supply of medical help right at hand. She said, "the difference is in America, you trust in the medical supply, so why should you have to trust in the Lord for healing? However, in Africa, you either trust God or die."
That story has always grabbed me right in my spirit when I hear it because it's so true. We in the western world have drifted away from trusting in the name of the Lord for our safety and provision. I don't need to exercise my trust in the name of Jesus if I have a good job and a good insurance program for my doctor.
I tell you that story for obvious reasons that we might be reminded that the Scriptures still tell us, even in this modern age, that the name of the Lord is a strong tower and when the righteous trust in that name, they are safe.
It's been my experience as I have developed my relationship with the father that he is not a spiritual buffet that I can drift by and pick my favorite treasures from his banquet table.
There's something in the scripture that we need to hear again when it tells us to "trust in the lord with all of our heart lean not to our understanding in all of our ways acknowledge him, and he will bring it to pass."
I challenge you to reevaluate your trust in the name of Jesus from the smallest part of your life to the greatest part.
"in all of your ways, acknowledge him."
This is an excellent day to refocus on the things that matter.

SORRY YOU HAVE NO CHOICE IN THIS
Among the things that I dislike in this world are drive-through fast food restaurants. They put me in line with the other cars and expected me to choose what I wanted in 30 seconds or less. First of all, I've never been to this one before, and I don't know the menu, and the guy behind me looks mad. There are just too many choices and too little time. But that seems to be the society we live in every day; many choices are thrown at us, and we're expected to make the right ones in a split second. After a while, you begin to feel like you're in control of your own life because you can make the choices you want. Burger King has made millions of the slogan "have it your way." Frank Sinatra sold a million records singing, "I did it my way." And Starbucks has so many ways to make coffee; you have to have a roadmap to navigate your way through. Boil it all down; this generation believes they are in control of their lives and can do what they want. If you're paying attention to what I'm driving for here, you've already figured out that I'm talking about people with no god base in their life. People without a foundation of God in their thinking and reasoning come up with stupid and foolish ideas, such as the multiple genders they are trying to convince us are real. Now because they have decided that they can make their own choice, they're having trouble figuring out what a woman is. People without God feel they can do whatever they want anytime they want without any repercussions or penalty for their actions. However, when the smoke clears, God is still in charge of this universe, and we don't have the choices we think we have. The first and most crucial choice that unredeemed people have is to choose Christ in their life. The scriptures tell us, "choose you this day whom you will serve." Once we've made that choice, our spirit is evident, and wisdom is given, so the choices from that point on becoming God's purpose and will in our life. "I'll take a hamburger and french fries, please."

WHEN THE WIND BLOWS, DEAD LEAVES FALL
I stepped outside yesterday to take a break and give my dogs a chance to run in the yard and realized autumn is finally here. While standing there, a gust of wind blew by my face, and I was showered with a burst of leaves that covered the yard. The "Spirit of God spoke to me and said, "when the wind blows, dead leaves will fall."
After you've lived through a few seasons, you become aware of the signals that tell you change is at hand. The temperature has changed; the leaves on the trees are turning colors, and the autumn winds are beginning to blow. In the Northwest, that's a good sign that the season has shifted, and we are now heading toward winter.
The leaves on the tree have served their purpose. They gave us shade all through the hot summer, and now their duty has ended. As far as they're concerned, they would like to stay on that tree forever; after all, it's home to them.
But GodGod has other ideas for those leaves; they need to move on so the tree can rest and come back more robust in the spring. So what does GodGod do? He sends the wind, and when the wind blows, the leaves fall.
Remember the old prophet that had free room and board beside the creek? The rest of the country was starving, but the birds brought him food daily, and the stream gave him water. What more could a prophet desire; it sounds like retirement had come.
But GodGod had other plans for the old boy; his job wasn't over yet.
Because the prophet was content where he was, GodGod dried up the creek and stopped the delivery system for food.
Why does trouble come along and the wind of adversity blow at times? It's to get us off the dime and allow us to exercise our faith again. Much of our decisions come out of a sense of urgency because the winds are blowing again.
I believe if you take notice, you'll find that those winds will blow your dead leaves off so that your new season can come forth with strength.
Folks, pay attention; you can know when the seasons change. Jesus told us that we could look to the sky and tell when it was going to rain. How much more can we do that in the spirit?

EVERYTHING GOD GIVES US IS IN SEED FORM
I live in a valley dominated by farmers and the agricultural industry. 95% of the business produced in this area comes from the ground. We are one of the world's largest producers of tulip and daffodil bulbs. We feed untold thousands with the potatoes produced and shipped from the small valley.
What a miracle increase in production that God has given to us so that we might live and prosper.
It would shock the uninformed that all of this great product and increase comes out of a small container of seeds.
Everything God gives to us is in seed form.
We have successful exporters that do nothing but send seeds around the world that have been produced in our small valley.
Seeds have power and can manipulate the financial position of a nation. Some years ago, in Holland, they had what they called a "tulip bubble," where Tulip bulbs became so valuable that one bulb was worth the price of a house.
In the book of Mark, in the fourth chapter, Jesus says the farmer went out to sow the seed. He continued by saying that the seed fell in different places. And according to the place that it landed determines the outcome of the seed.
Everything God gives to us is in seed form.
Paul has a prayer in Galatians four, praying there and asking that Christ be formed in them. That statement indicates that when we receive Christ, it is a seed planted in the womb of our spirit that must come to maturity before birth.
This is not a heaven and hell issue; this is a grow up and be a son of God issue.
Just like the seed planted in a woman's womb has to come through the stages of development, so you and I, as Christians, do the same.
Unfortunately, many of our churches are nurseries instead of the headquarters of spiritual warriors.
It's time that we allow the seeds of the gospel that have been planted in the womb of our spirit to mature and come to full bloom so that we can do the will of God in our time.

THE MONSTER WITHIN THE MONSTER WITHOUT
There is a classical caricature that Hollywood portrays as the struggle between good and evil. You see the picture of a man who looks frustrated, if not worn down. On one shoulder, speaking into his ear, it is the devil. Standing on the other shoulder is an angel speaking in that ear.
The Hollywood understanding of the struggle that men and women go through in this world expresses the frustration and the depression that people without Christ live in all their life. The psychiatrist and counselors are busy day and night keeping those types of people out of the dark places the enemy's spirit can put them. The question is asked over and over how can I get rid of the monster that is driving me insane?
Paul describes his frustrating journey in the seventh chapter of Romans. Here he makes the statement, "oh wretched man that I am who shall deliver me from this body of death." We are listening here to one of the New Testament heroes describing his life and the monster that dominated him before he was converted.
Then in the following verse of Romans 7:25, Paul changes the room's atmosphere and declares the monster is dead because of the work of Jesus Christ on the cross. Listen to his declaration again.
"Oh, thank God he will through Jesus Christ the anointed one."
Now that glorious verse in chapter 8 of Romans echoes through our souls and spirit like the sweet winds of summer.
"Therefore now no condemnation no judging guilty of wrong for those who are in Christ Jesus for the law of the spirit of life which is in Christ Jesus has freed me from the law of sin and death."
The monster is dead, my friends; rejoice, you are no longer under condemnation.

RECEIVING AND GIVING THE BREATH OF GOD
The Bible is full of images and pictures in our minds that we can see the workings of God throughout the history of man. One of the very first pictures we carry in our minds is the creation of Adam. We are told that God formed him from the dust of the earth; as we read that, we can visualize the action that took place; God forming man in his image.
It's where the dynamics change as God releases his spirit by breathing into Adam the breath of life. We can visualize gods release of his spirit into the spirit of Adam, and he became a living soul.
Among the wonderful images I see in the New Testament is the book of acts where Pentecost happened. In the upper room where the faithful gathered, waiting for the promised gift from heaven, the Holy Spirit. Suddenly a mighty wind blew through the room; God again exhaled into the spirits of men, and they became new creatures in Christ.
Now take a picture of the modern carrier of that same breath, the preacher, the witness, the housewife, the next-door neighbor, anyone who declares Christ to the world around them. As they breathe out the gospel's message, the same breath released into Adam, and those in the upper room, comes forth from the mouth of those who proclaim his name.
You and I carry the same breath that God has within himself because he lives in us and speaks as we speak. Did not Jesus tell us that we could do greater works because we now could go to the father in Jesus's name?
Didn't the scriptures tell us, "as Jesus is, so are we in this world?"
Of course, it does.
So when someone tells you to take a deep breath, you're not just breathing in oxygen. You're breathing in the presence of the Lord. How can I say that?
Because you and I live in his presence continually.
And when you speak, remember, the breath that you used to speak his name and his word is the breath of God going into those that stand around and listen.
Exhale, my friends, and watch the world around you change.

HOW DEEP IS YOUR RIVER
It's a sad tale that is told when someone dives into shallow water, thinking that the water is deep enough. How deep is the River that you're in today? Well, of course, we're talking about the River of God in Ezekiel 47 that flows out of the temple.
It's my opinion that the modern church is splashing around in the shallow end of the River. I'm speaking in general terms, not specifics because God always has his "7000" still pressing into him. Your quest and mine certainly would be that we are in that group of people seeking the Lord for the deep part of the River.
To me, this visionary tale that Ezekiel tells speaks of our spiritual journey of maturity and growth. Each time the man with the line in his hand measured another thousand Cubix, the River got deeper. To me, the term 1000 represents a complete season.
If we can observe our spiritual journey, we would see that we go through seasons where battles are encountered, trials are endured, and victories are celebrated. There seems to be a measure that fills the cup, and when the cup is complete, we get to cross the River again.
I remember my first experience at a public pool in Yakima, Washington, when I was 12. I never learned to swim well because I was afraid of the rivers and lakes we were allowed to swim in. But I could do pretty well if I put swimming fins on, so I did. Then one day, feeling pretty proud of myself, I took my fins off and jumped into the pool's deep end. I'm sure the angels were there helping because it was a close call as a sank like a rock.
We've all tended to do that in our young days; jump into the deep end and almost drown. The Holy Spirit is faithful and takes us across one layer at a time.
If you're still splashing around in the shallow end of the River, ask God to bring you onto that next level, you'll never regret it.

THE JOESPH PRINCIPLE - PREPARING FOR THE STORM IS NOT A LACK OF FAITH
I come from a long line of Pioneer Pentecostal groundbreakers. My father left high school 30 days before graduation to travel to Texas with an evangelist and preach the gospel before Jesus came. The early Pentecostal world was fueled with a passion for taking the message of the cross and the Holy Spirit into the highways and byways of this nation. That was the family of mentors that God dropped me in the middle of.
Oddly enough, amid that fire and the passion, we picked up some bad habits, and our teaching on faith needed to be upgraded. We had been trained to trust God for our finances, and because of this, we learned to step out in faith and go as God provided.
So far, so good.
However, subliminally it was teaching us that if we had something set aside, as they say, for a rainy day, it was a lack of faith. It seemed that we trained ourselves that faith only operated when we had no money. We often wore the badge of poverty with pride, thinking we were sacrificing for Jesus.
On the flip side, let me be quick to tell you that God's always faithful, and it was because of these early Pentecostal soldiers the message of the baptism of the Holy Spirit was spread around the world. And I would again make a note with very little money.
When the so-called "faith movement" flooded into our world, it began to teach us that God was not afraid of prosperity matter of fact, he loved it. And according to our human nature, some of those that heard the message we're prone to go to the excess to the point their faith began to be in what they had in their pocket.
The spirit of God spoke something to me today. He reminded me of the "Joseph principle." Then he said preparing for the storm is not a lack of faith.
Then my attention was taken to our current situation with the recession and the hurricanes that are ravishing our East Coast. We are seeing multitudes of people with no provision for a storm trying to catch up when it is too late.
Is there a spiritual principle here? Yes, there is.
Why do the scriptures tell us to seek the Lord early? Early in the day and early on the journey. Why?
The same reason that Jesus prayed all night before he went on the journey is that just like saving money up, you have a spiritual bank account that you can deposit in. And when the storm comes, you'll have plenty of supply to get through to Victory.
Our spirit is like a battery; it needs to stay charged up. It's also like a bank account; you need to deposit something in there so you can have something to withdraw.
Also, your spirit is like ground; that's where the good seed is planted so that a great harvest will come to you.

THE JOESPH PRINCIPLE - PREPARING FOR THE STORM IS NOT A LACK OF FAITH
I come from a long line of Pioneer Pentecostal groundbreakers. My father left high school 30 days before graduation to travel to Texas with an evangelist and preach the gospel before Jesus came. The early Pentecostal world was fueled with a passion for taking the message of the cross and the Holy Spirit into the highways and byways of this nation. That was the family of mentors that God dropped me in the middle of.
Oddly enough, amid that fire and the passion, we picked up some bad habits, and our teaching on faith needed to be upgraded. We had been trained to trust God for our finances, and because of this, we learned to step out in faith and go as God provided.
So far, so good.
However, subliminally it was teaching us that if we had something set aside, as they say, for a rainy day, it was a lack of faith. It seemed that we trained ourselves that faith only operated when we had no money. We often wore the badge of poverty with pride, thinking we were sacrificing for Jesus.

PREPARING TO IMPORT
With our cell phones, computers, and hard drive capabilities in this modern age of technology, we know what it means to prepare for import. If we find interesting data that we want to bring into our system, we first have to determine the size of the data and the capacity of our system to receive it.
Next, we must consider the connection between the system that has what we want and our own. The connection determines many things, such as the speed of delivery which determines the time it takes to deliver.
Fortunes have been made because of discovering new integrative ways to deliver the data to you.
Then we must determine if our system is big enough to hold what were asking for. Size does matter when your ability to ask is greater than your ability to receive.
By now, you realize I'm talking about the world of the spirit and our ability to receive what God has to download into us. I have been a receiver of the good things of God most of my life and have discovered specific ways that I must prepare before I import from Heaven's glory.
Revelation, the first chapter, tells us that John was in the spirit on the Lord's day.
Now note that he had a particular method of preparing to import. I'm sure we have taken much of our pattern of entering God's presence from our great biblical heroes.
In my personal life and ministry, I have long ago set up a pattern for receiving the download that God wants to send from Heaven. That secret place that David talked about is of primary importance. Be quiet before the Lord and listen to the spirit speak to your spirit.
We call it prayer like it's only one thing, but there are many facets of that time in our prayer closet. Just like Jesus did before he went out into public ministry, we also spend time face-to-face with the father before we step into that place of authority on earth.
Clear a space for God to land on you today. Clear away the clutter of negative thoughts and unforgiveness, and let fear be gone in Jesus' name. When you do that, you will be amazed at how quickly God will download into your wisdom and revelation.

Would you be surprised if I told you that we don't get saved by faith? Oh, but you say we can't come to God unless we believe. Yes, that's true, but why do we believe; that's what I'm asking you.
Often the general response is that all the preachers I know tell us that we get saved by faith and not by works. Yes, I know we must believe in our heart and confess with our mouth that Jesus is Lord, thereby being converted.
But where did that belief come from?
We know by scripture that we have no faith on our own; it's God's faith that we use when we come to Jesus. So if I have no Faith, how then do I get saved?
The scriptures plainly tell us in Ephesians 2:8 that we get saved by grace through faith. So something must happen in our life that introduces us to the grace of God, thereby giving us faith to believe.
You will hear some teaching that we must have blind faith with no proof; believe God; that's all you can do. I don't even think God expects that.
Why?
When Jesus came out of the tomb and spent 40 days among his disciples, the Scriptures tell us in Acts 1:13 that Jesus showed himself to his disciples with many infallible proofs, and somehow he could convince them of who he was by evidence of what he had done.
Look at how he presented himself to Thomas by showing the scars on his hands and side. Thomas believed because he had evidence of a face-to-face experience with God himself.
Acts 15:11 declares through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ; we shall be saved. It's no wonder many Christians struggle with their faith in God because they have never had a personal experience with him. I guarantee you that when you do, your faith will never waiver.
So how do we have that personal experience?
Ask, and you shall receive seek, and you shall find knock and that she'll be open for you.

HOW TO HAVE YOUR CAKE AND EAT IT TOO
That statement has always seemed pretty confusing to me. What it says to me is that you have only one choice; you get to hold the cake and look at it, or you can eat it. Of course, once you eat the cake, you no longer have it. Crazy huh?
Well enough of that.
What I really want to talk about is Jesus and how we can partake of him daily and still walk with him in the cool of the day every day.
Think about it for a moment. So many of God's wonderful children believe you don't get to eat the cake after you get the cake. They receive Jesus as Savior, then sit and wait for the end of their life or the coming of the lord.
That's like having a great big birthday cake in front of you with a fork in hand but never touch it.
Think about the opportunities to know God beyond salvation; they are an ending.
Some of us who have stepped into the gifts of the spirit suffer from that hesitation to go on into other portals and doorways.
Behind each door is something greater and more blessed than we have experienced yet. Why do we wait?
It could be that we've listened to our founding fathers theologically, and they told us this is all there is now; just wait.
Well, I don't know about you. I'm not waiting around for the rapture bus; I'm digging into this cake and finding out just how much God has for us in this generation.
Who's with me?

FINDING NEW WAYS TO WIN
The gun goes off, the horses are launched out of their gates, and all that can be heard is the thunder of hoofs. As the steeds round the first corner, the crowded grandstand is on their feet, cheering their favorite horse and rider to the finish line. Then the celebration begins with ribbons and pictures and congratulations all around.
It seems that every contest in life has a winner and a lot of losers, or at least people who didn't win. Well, you say, not everybody can win. Yes, I understand that, but the loser can someday be a winner if they adjust themselves toward that mark.
I'm convinced the most important thing to do in life to be a winner is to understand that God made us to succeed in so many different ways.
Romans the eighth chapter and 37 verse tell us that we are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ that loved us.
That tells me there are many ways to win if we allow the Holy Spirit to give us a mind that is not cluttered with doubt, fear, and losing that we might have the mind of Christ, which is full of so many possibilities to win.
The scriptures tell us that Jesus came so that we might have life and that more abundantly. To me, abundant life means that if it doesn't work one way, God will give us the wisdom to make it work another way, but in the end, we will hit the target.
The great American inventor Thomas Edison tried 1000 times to make the lightbulb work. One thousand failures before he struck gold. You and I have spent many hours late into the night reading our favorite books because Thomas Edison didn't give up.
Don't give up, my friends; your miracle is just around the corner.

NO GLOOM IN THIS ROOM
Living in his front room. After all, the scriptures tell us, "in the presence of the Lord, there is fullness of joy." God is a happy God. Would you be surprised if I told you that a large percentage of evangelical Christians don't believe that God is a happy God?
I'm afraid we have been dubbed by our theologians of past centuries that have formed a picture of God out of the Old Testament instead of out of the new covenant. Of course, I get a fair amount of pushback from modern theologians when I suggest a different god dealing with us in the old covenant compared to the new covenant.
Just for a moment, take a snapshot of gods dealings with humanity under the old covenant. It's there we could fall into the hands of an angry god, or if we missed a step or two, we could be swallowed up into the earth family and all.
It's in the old covenant that sins were not forgiven; the blood of animals just covered them. Here we see God bringing judgment, penalties, sickness, and death upon those who opposed him.
Now take a snapshot of the new covenant through the filter of John 3:16 & 17.
"For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life,
For God sent not his son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through him might be saved.
Now take a quick peek at Romans eight. There is a long list of things that could come your way, and none of them would change the love God has given you through Jesus Christ.
There's no gloom in this room because this is the father's front room, where we abide forever.

SOME THINGS TO THINK ABOUT
Is God into mind control, or does he know something about our journey in this life that we haven't learned yet? I would vote for the latter, knowing that our heavenly father certainly has a plan, and that plan for us is good.
So what's all of this about telling us what to think about? Isn't that a heavy hand of control? Take a moment to consider the things that go through our minds in a single day, then let us match them up to the list that God gives us.
The apostle Paul in Philippians 4:8 gives us a list of eight subjects for consideration that we should train our minds to dwell on.
Remember now that "as a man thinks in his heart, so is he."
That gives me a heads-up concerning my future and what I think I will become. Oh, don't be silly now. I'm not going to turn into an ice cream cone if I think about ice cream. We're talking about the character of the Soul and strength of spirit.
The things that we meditate on and put our minds toward shape every level of our personality. The person who has focused themselves on evil performs evil deeds. Likewise, those who focus on pure things become pure in their actions.
So in a great respect, we are architects of our future, aren't we?
Unfortunately, if we let our mind drifts through the society around us, we will be hard-pressed to find those eight things that Paul told us to meditate upon.
So do we remove ourselves from the society we live in a mountain cabin somewhere. ? No, Jesus already prayed that we wouldn't be taken out of the world, but we would impact the world with the gospel.
So I encourage you today to focus on these things that Paul teaches us in Philippians 4:8:
True-honest-just-pure-lovely-good report-virtue-praise
That will keep you busy for a while.

HAVE YOU RECEIVED SINCE YOU BELIEVED?
In the 19th chapter of acts apostle, Paul asks Apoiios if he had received the Holy Spirit baptism since he believed in Jesus Christ as the Messiah.
Apollos was a fervent believer in Jesus Christ and convinced many Jewish people that Jesus was their Messiah.
Yes, something was missing.
With this question, Paul was bringing to the attention of this new convert that he had not yet acquired all of the tools that he needed to complete his development and purpose.
To be baptized in the Holy Spirit is the beginning of a lifetime of being submitted to the will of God in what you say and do.
The experience of speaking in tongues at the outset signifies that your language is submitted to the Holy Spirit's influence over your life. James tells us that the tongue is a small member yet controls the whole body.
So when we as baptized people speak in other tongues, we submit that small controlling agent to the language of our spirit, which is that heavenly language.
If you have not received the baptism in the Holy Spirit with the experience of releasing your heavenly language, ask the father, and he will give it to you.
Why do you need it?
Stated it completes you in ways that are unimaginable at this time. You will enter into a relationship with the father that no one can describe until you experience it.
Yes, it's my faith, but more than that, it's by obedience.
It's called receiving.
Have you received since you believed?

HAVE YOU RECEIVED SINCE YOU BELIEVED?
In the 19th chapter of acts apostle, Paul asks Apoiios if he had received the Holy Spirit baptism since he believed in Jesus Christ as the Messiah.
Apollos was a fervent believer in Jesus Christ and convinced many Jewish people that Jesus was their Messiah.
Yes, something was missing.
With this question, Paul was bringing to the attention of this new convert that he had not yet acquired all of the tools that he needed to complete his development and purpose.
To be baptized in the Holy Spirit is the beginning of a lifetime of being submitted to the will of God in what you say and do.
The experience of speaking in tongues at the outset signifies that your language is submitted to the Holy Spirit's influence over your life. James tells us that the tongue is a small member yet controls the whole body.
So when we as baptized people speak in other tongues, we submit that small controlling agent to the language of our spirit, which is that heavenly language.
If you have not received the baptism in the Holy Spirit with the experience of releasing your heavenly language, ask the father, and he will give it to you.
Why do you need it?
Stated it completes you in ways that are unimaginable at this time. You will enter into a relationship with the father that no one can describe until you experience it.
Yes, it's my faith, but more than that, it's by obedience.
It's called receiving.
Have you received since you believed?

WHAT DID JESUS MEAN BY "MANY MANSIONS?
Some of our church theology is somewhat like a gossip circle; the news is passed on from generation to generation, and each time, it changes. By the time you and I come along, a fair amount of church theology needs to be redefined.
Take, for instance, John 14:2. Jesus said, in my father's house are many mansions, (King James version) I'm going to prepare a place for you that where I am there, ye may also be.
OK, that sounds pretty biblical, seeing that we have heard that repeatedly.
But is that really what it means? By the time I came along, every Christian would have a three-story castle just over in the Gloryland.
Whatever that Gloryland thing is, I never found out. I suppose it is a slang word for heaven.
In reality, Jesus was not talking about you hunkering down in some stately mansion on an eternal retirement plan.
Let me say that verse again in layman's language. "in the place that my father abides, there are many different realms for you to work and to fulfill your destiny in, and I am going there now to finalize the covenant so that as I am in that realm, you will also be."
For most Christians, the vision of heaven is like an eternal country club where we play games all day and sit around and tell stories. In reality, this experience we're having on earth is just preparation for our eternal purpose that God has, which is to rule and dominate the cosmos.
Listen again to John 3:16
God so loved the cosmos (World) that he gave his only begotten son.
Again we hear that same word in mark 16:15
Go into all the cosmos (World) and preach the gospel.
In this modern age of technology, we are just now getting a small glimpse of how enormous God's cosmos is. I believe that's what Jesus was talking about when he said there are many realms for you to go to.
We've come through the age of the church where they sang songs like, "Lord give me just a little cabin in the corner of Gloryland."
How pathetic is that when God wants us to rule, dominate, conquer and preach the gospel to his entire creation?
Like that famous statement out of the Wizard of Oz," you ain't in Kansas anymore."

GOD SPREADS MERCY LIKE A FOUR-YEAR-OLD SPREADS PEANUT BUTTER
He gets it all over everything.
We sing songs in the church about the mercy of God being so wonderful.
And thank God that is so true. The mercy of God has dealt with our sin and buried it in the sea of God's forgetfulness, never to be remembered against us anymore.
If that is true, and it is, why then do we remember our sins so often? Where does that come from? If we believe that the word of God is accurate, then that must come from somewhere in the deep recesses of our souls.
So then we have men and women who have been totally set free and forgiven by the mercy of God. Yet most of their life, they suffer from the guilt of the past, and their progress is hindered.
Let's check our understanding of the meaning of mercy and the meaning of grace.
The mercy of God is that which deals with our sins of the past and has covered us with his forgiveness because of the blood of Christ. It is so powerful on God's side that he has chosen not to remember our sins against us anymore.
Consider the power of mercy that can eradicate the very existence of our sinful past.
Now remember we are to have the mind of Christ, and in the mind of Christ, we have no past; we are new creatures with a new name and have been christened as righteous.
On the other hand, grace is the powerhouse of God's gift that enables us to go forward into our purpose with Victory and power. God's grace gives us faith in the time of weariness to go forward and hit the target for God.
The indwelling power of grace gives us the ability to stand in the midst of temptation and declare we are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ.
This is why we can confess what God confesses about us "old things have passed away behold all things have become new."
Remember, we didn't come to God by our faith; we came to him by his faith.
That's why the scriptures declare that "in him, we live and move and have our being."
So when your soul wants to remind you of your past sins, release the dynamo of grace to destroy its effect and bury it for the last time.

WANT TO GO HIGHER, CHANGE FLIGHT RULES
It was 1974, and Southern California was ablaze with the fresh wind of the charismatic movement blowing through its churches. By an act of the Holy Ghost, I was on pastoral staff with eight other young zealots, anxious to be involved in what God was doing. Arlis and I were experiencing things we had never seen before in church life. Every day seems to be new and full of adventures. It was a major pivotal point in our progress following the father into the supernatural. Just after we arrived, we heard that our senior pastor was taking flying lessons and was going to buy a church airplane. About that time, we were invited into Baja California, that strip of Mexico south of the border. Our team piled into about half a dozen small airplanes to get there, and off we went ministering in the great Catholic cathedral in Hermosillo. Well, that trip sealed it for us young guys; we were determined to become pilots so we could fly our own planes. So off to flight school we went. Two or three nights a week, we poured over the books and listened to the lectures until that day of graduation. Then it was time to climb into the airplane with an instructor and practice our skills. I learned a lot in those days about flying an airplane, but the most important thing I learned was that everything has a rule. If you break the rule, you get in trouble quickly. I learned right away that I was flying VFR; to my disappointment, it would be some time with more practice and training before I could fly IFR. VFR means visual flight rules. IFR means instrument flight rules. I was bound to visible flight rules, which meant I had to be able to see the ground at all times. That meant I could never fly above the clouds and was limited in where I could go. By now, you probably see the point that I'm coming to. If you're ever going to fly higher with God, you have to graduate from what you see to what you believe. When flying by instrument flight rules, you must trust your instruments to be accurate and that they will take you through the dark of night to your destinations. So it is with our walk with the father; trust in the lord with all your heart, lean not unto your own understanding in all of your ways, acknowledge him, and he will direct your path. Now that's flying by heaven's instrument flight rules.

THE MYSTERY OF QUIETNESS
Let a picture deformed in your mind as I quote the Psalms to you. The word is my shepherd; I shall not want he maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside still waters; he restores my soul. Ps 23 Be still and know that I am God. Ps 46:10 Now take that picture formed in your mind and step into it for a few minutes and watch the pressure of life around you diminish. Before you leave that place in your mind and your spirit, lay down in that green pasture, take a deep breath, and let all tension, nervousness, and fears leave. This is not the power of suggestion or modern psychology; this is as old as God himself because he made it possible. God built us to have the best creative moments in our quietest places. That's why dreams can come to us while we are asleep because we are quiet at last. When someone says to you, "go to bed and sleep on it," they tell you that your most significant creative moments are coming to you very quickly. One of America's most incredible adventures, Thomas Edison, had a strange system of creative thinking. He took naps regularly in his office on his couch. He would hold a steel ball in his hand with a tin plate on the floor. As he slipped into sleep, his hand would relax, the steel ball would hit the tin plate, and he would awake. At that moment, his greatest inventions or enormous problems were solved. The experts tell us that it is in our deepest sleep that Delta level is where our creative brain kicks in. No wonder the Scriptures tell us to be still and know. There are mysteries waiting to be revealed for you if you quiet yourself before the Lord and enjoy the green pastures and the still waters. Remember, prayer is not only words; it's also quietness.

WHAT GAINS OUR ATTENTION WILL CHANGE OUR LIVES
It was just a simple black-and-white picture on the mantle over the fireplace. My purpose in being there was to have Sunday lunch after our church service, along with some good fellowship. Life was good, and after almost ten years of being a traveling evangelist, I was excited about the future of gospel work. I was on a spring tour through the churches of the Northwest; along with me was my traveling companion, who played the guitar, and we sang together. I was going to get married someday. I knew that but not today, and I was too busy keeping up with what God had me involved in and just the joy of living and building relationships. Then the picture happened. While waiting for dinner that Sunday afternoon, I wandered into the front room, looking around. This black and white picture of a teenage girl was sitting on the mantle over the fireplace. That picture gained my attention. Whoa, who is this? I said. Clutching the picture to my chest, I danced into the kitchen, declaring I was going to marry this girl. After getting the laughs I was looking for, we had dinner, and I returned to my room to prepare for the night service. But that picture wouldn't leave my mind. I said to the Lord, if this is not the one for me, I never want to meet her. Two days later, I met her. 5 1/2 months later, I married her. Three children and seven grandchildren, and 54 years I'm still married to her. Need I say it again? What gains are attention will change our lives. It's no wonder the Scriptures tell us to seek the kingdom of God first. Make it your priority when you make a Life decision. Let everything you look at be filtered through your understanding of God's purpose for you. Don't allow anything to gain your attention but that which pleases the father. Keep your eyes on him, and you will hit your target.

A SPLASH OF COLD WATER IN YOUR FACE
Let me ask you a question. What do you see when you think of someone you know or love? Do you visualize an elbow, a foot, or perhaps the back of their head? No, of course not. You see their face, don't you? We know people by their faces because that is where the expression of their spirit is released. We know them by their face because the substance of their DNA and their family genes come through their face. You observe their face to see their response to your communication when you're talking to someone. A smile or a frown will tell you which way the conversation is going. A relationship with any hope of going anywhere always starts with a face-to-face encounter. The signs of love between a man and a woman first appear on the face, and the soft whispers of love and the first kiss come from the face. I believe this is why we're invited to have a face-to-face relationship with our father, God. Many Christians know their God from a distance and hear about him through other people's reports. But they've never had a face-to-face encounter with the person they claim to love. It's somewhat like a love affair over the Internet or a male order bride where all you saw was a picture. True love and relationship are always face-to-face. So it's time for you all to have a cold splash of water on your face. The nerves that run through the surface of your face will affect every part of your body, including your heart. Suddenly you're Wide awake, your brain starts functioning again, and you're ready for the day. So it is in the spirit when God splashes cold water in our face, and we wake up to the reality that we need his face in ours. How great is that?

SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE OF VICTORY
The story of Legion in the new testament is a classic example of deliverance when Jesus shows up at the shore of someone's troubled life. There are so many beautiful keys in this story of redemption that we can glean for our ministries and lives. If I were to rate those essential keys, I would have to choose the first words that Jesus said about their trip. Remember that before Jesus went on one of his adventures, he had already listened to the Father's instructions for the day. On this particular day, they were going to meet a storm so severe that the disciples feared for their lives. So Jesus made a statement that became the linchpin of the day. He said to his disciples," Let us go over to the other side." Based on that confession, victory was snatched out of the jaws of defeat so that when the storm came, it was used as an example to the disciples that faith would dominate the day. What Jesus said to his disciples that day was this; "get in the boat, boys. I'll see you on the other side of victory. I challenge you today to do the two things Jesus did every day before he fulfilled the Father's will. First of all, he spent time with the Father so that he would understand the direction that the Father wanted him to go for the day. Secondly, he took that word from the Father and spoke it into the atmosphere he would be in that day. His confession made a pathway for him to walk on. When we say the same things the Father is saying about our journey, we have a path to walk in that will take us to our target. Confessing your soul's desires instead of finding the Father's desires will confuse and frustrate you and eventually quit. Listen to the heart of the Father, then boldly confess his desires for you.

On this particular day, they were going to meet a storm so severe that the disciples feared for their lives. So Jesus made a statement that became the linchpin of the day. He said to his disciples," Let us go over to the other side." Based on that confession, victory was snatched out of the jaws of defeat so that when the storm came, it was used as an example to the disciples that faith would dominate the day. What Jesus said to his disciples that day was this; "get in the boat, boys. I'll see you on the other side of victory. I challenge you today to do the two things Jesus did every day before he fulfilled the Father's will. First of all, he spent time with the Father so that he would understand the direction that the Father wanted him to go for the day. Secondly, he took that word from the Father and spoke it into the atmosphere he would be in that day. His confession made a pathway for him to walk on. When we say the same things the Father is saying about our journey, we have a path to walk in that will take us to our target. Confessing your soul's desires instead of finding the Father's desires will confuse and frustrate you and eventually quit. Listen to the heart of the Father, then boldly confess his desires for you.

DECONSTRUCTING THE GOD YOU KNOW FOR THE GOD YOU WILL MEET
The dead sea in the middle east is famous for one thing; it's dead. It is so highly salty that no living creature can exist in its waters. The reason it's dead is also very simple. The dead sea never gives anything away that it receives. In other words, there are no rivers flowing out to supply water for different parts of the region. Americans are known for many things; one is collecting special momentos such as antiques from the past and broken and disrepair items they may use someday. That particular habit of collecting has produced a category of people called hoarders. Hoarders are those who collect anything for no reason; they like to collect stuff. The tragedy of this particular group of people is that they finally collect so much that they have no room to live in their own house. Many of them live in tiny corners while the rest of the house is filled with junk. However, if you ask them about it, they will all tell you these are my treasures. And so it goes with the community of people called Christians; we are also collectors of stuff. The things we collect our ideas, church theology, grandmothers customs, and "this is the way we've always done it." So just like the dead sea and the hoarder that lives down the street, the Christian who collects spiritual stuff ends up living in a small corner of their spiritual house because there's no room for anything else. A healthy Christian has a stream flowing out of them, making room for new things to come in. That river or stream flowing out contains many things, such as giving others their time, finances, and love. However, there are other things that need to flow out that are just as important. Those things are discarded ideas, out-of-date theology, and grandmother's beliefs about God that came from erroneous teaching. It's impossible to collect spiritual information from all the sources around us without collecting some dead works, which the Bible calls "hay wood and stubble." If you're ever going to have room to receive new revelation, some of what you have learned in the past must be deconstructed or torn down so that God can rebuild a fresh understanding of who he is to you and the world around you. The children of Israel had to collect fresh Mana every day, and if they tried to hoard it for the next day, it became full of worms. I wonder how much of our old dusty theology is full of worms today. Take time to unload some of the debris, go into the father's secret chamber, and let him refresh you and refill you with his divine knowledge and understanding. I guarantee you will meet a loving father beyond your wildest dreams.

IF YOU LAUNCH, THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL STEER THE SHIP Inertia is a strange word. According to my high school science, teacher inertia simply means something at rest. In other words, we are not moving or going anywhere. How often do we feel that way on this journey called life? When we are 10, we want to be 16. And it seems like we will never get there; it's like being stuck in a time warp. When we're single, we wonder if we'll ever be married. And every time we go to someone else's wedding, it just magnifies the anxiety we're walking in. Or maybe you feel trapped in a job that has no forward motion. Oh God, you pray, will you ever get me out of this mess I'm in? The scriptures give us several examples of how to break the power of inertia in our lives. Jesus was especially clear when he ministered to several individuals and commanded them to do something about their condition. Christ commanded the man with the withered hand to stand up. There was nothing wrong with his legs, but he still sat there focused on his problem. When he did what he could do, then he could do what he couldn't do. How about the prominent general that came to the prophet in the Old Testament and wanted to be healed from leprosy? The prophet gave him something to do to break him out of the place he was in so we could move forward into healing. Go wash in the Jordan river, he said. After much complaining, he finally did that, and when he did, he moved out of leprosy into healing. I love the story of the prodigal son sitting in the pigpen doing nothing but lusting after the food the pigs were eating. Now that's super inertia. Taking a permanent rest in a pig pen is not something very smart. Something seemed to click down deep inside, and he began to speak words of freedom that caused him to be moved out of his pigpen. "I will rise, and I will go, and I will say to my father." Those simple words changed his life and launched him on a journey toward Victory. Dear friends, there's something you can do to break the inertia, that place you seem to be stuck in. And when you do, God will take over the steering wheel and guide you to Victory.

OH, FOR THE FAITH OF A COOK Some time ago, I was meditating upon my life as it has unfolded over the years. As I did, I began to realize the importance of cooks in my life because my life would have been a lot different without them. Then I began to collect the names and faces of the most important cooks that had helped this old boy stay alive so long. Of course, I started with the main cook in my young life, my mother. We had a very unconventional lifestyle as a traveling Pentecostal preacher family. Because of that, mother learned how to produce meals for her family on all sorts of cookstoves and campfires. I still remember the warm kitchen in Yakima because of the wood cookstove where there was always a coffee pot for dad and a pot of soup for the rest of us. It seems I spent a fair amount of my young life going somewhere in an automobile. Those days we carried our food in a small cooler and camped out at night along the road somewhere. And when it was lunchtime, almost magically, a sandwich would be passed over from the front seat where mom was putting lunch together as we traveled along. I never thought much about where the food came from, but just as long as mother was around, I knew we would have something to eat. However, the most essential cook in my life has been my wife, Arlis, who has kept me alive for 54 years. She never met a soup she couldn't change. Of course, I should get some credit for her skills because I have been the test case for most of her cooking in the early days. But I never complained because I was in love. And as the scripture says, love covers a multitude of burnt food. Currently, she's on a quest to discover the best banana bread ever. And her grandkids are cheering her on as she does. I watched her baking yesterday, and she showed me the record of all the banana bread she baked this year. She had noted all the ingredients and the changes she made to the flavor of each one. As I listened to her explain her next strategy, I was hit with this thought; oh, that we might have the faith of a cook. If you and I applied the scriptures with the same faith that a cook has when they put a cup of sugar or flour into the mix, knowing it will change something for the better. The great cooks in our life have total confidence in their ingredients, and when they apply them, the results will be the same every time. Now that's the kind of faith I can follow.

TALKING TO THE LORD IMPROVES EYESIGHT The subject is enormous and all-encompassing, but the statement is short and to the point. When you talk to God, your eyesight is improved. It has been proven over and over in the Scriptures that when one of our biblical heroes spent time communicating with the God of heaven, they could then see through their problem to Victory. Take Samuel, for instance. Just a young boy was living in the courtyards of the temple grounds. In the night, while on his bed, he heard his name called Samuel Samuel. He arose quickly from his bed, went to Eli, the priest, and asked him if he had called him. After repeated attempts to find out who was speaking, Eli gave him spiritual direction so that he could follow God'sGod's instructions. Eli got a word from the Lord and told it to Samuel. If the Lord calls again, this is how you will answer. "speak lord for your servant hearth." After speaking with Lord Samuel then had a clear vision of what God had in mind for the future of Israel. Not only was his understanding increased, but now he could see far into the future. How about Peter; after a time of ministering to the people who had gathered, he took time to rest up before he ate lunch. Then God gave him a vision of a sheet being let down full of animals. Remember that Peter could not see the church's future like he was ready to after talking to the Lord. God said to Peter, "kill and eat." Peter said to God, "not me, Lord. I'm a good Jew; we don't eat that." When Peter and Gold were through talking together, Peter could see down the road. Significant changes were coming to the world and the body of Christ. The Gentiles had been included in the covenant, and Peter didn't see it until he had his conversation with God. So how about you today? How is your eyesight doing? Do you think an increase could improve it in your conversations with the father? I do. So remember what the Scriptures tell us, "the fervent prayers of a righteous person avail of much."

THE ROOT AND THE BRANCH IS LOVE Love is your invisible inner source, just like the root system of a tree and the foundation of a building. Eph 3:17 m/b Love is your reservoir of super human strength, which causes you to see everyone equally sanctified in the context of the limitless intent of love's breadth and length and the extremities of its dimensions in depth and height. Eph 3:18 m/b I desire for you to become intimately acquainted with the love of Christ on the deepest possible level, far beyond the reach of a mere academic intellectual grasp. Within this equation, God finds the ultimate expression of himself in you. Eph 3:19 m/b I am convinced that the next revolution in our theology, as well as the experience that the church will embrace, is that of love. We have preached about love, written books about love, and told people that we love one another. Yet the evidence is not there. Jesus said that the evidence of us loving one another would be that the world knew we were one because of our love. Yet, the church is still divided across the board by doctoral disputes, class divisions, and ethnic misunderstandings. The church's roots, the body of Christ, are founded in love because God is love. It would seem that the revelation of God's love is still an intellectual experience for too many. So for us to move into the purposes of God as a people. The message of love must go from our heads to our hearts, and the Holy Ghost is the only one that can do that. As much as I want to love you in my emotions, I cannot love you without God's love flowing through me. Beloved, let us love one another for love is of God; everyone that loves is born of God and knows God. 1 John 4:7

DOORS GOD WILL USE TO REACH YOU For years I have been intrigued with the mechanics of heaven. If there's anything that I have learned from a young age is that God has a system that can be examined and tapped into. The evidence is all around us; as Paul stated, even nature declares his glory. Centuries ago, a man by the name of Francis Bacon, who was a believer in the creator of the universe, became the father of science. He discovered in his investigation of nature around him that it is consistent and has a dependable system. All of our science then is based upon a dependable God who built a reliable universe that we can study to find its mechanics. Actual science is not the investigator's opinion but the discovery of the systematic function of what they study. And so it is with you and God. Our father has built within the structure of his world doorways to come into your life so that he may speak directly to you. Because each of us is created as individuals, as they say, one size doesn't fit all. So the father has a lot of options that he uses to reach us. The scriptures tell us, "as the heavens are above the earth, so God's ways are above our ways." Just look at the multiple ways God has reached into the lives of those in the Bible. With Joseph, it was through dreams, and they called him a dreamer. With Peter, it was a vision as he was in a trance. God spoke to him about the Gentiles coming into the kingdom of God. Then with the apostle Paul, a bright light stopped him in his tracks as he was determined to destroy the church. Jesus arrested him with a personal visit. And with Mary, the mother of Jesus, it was an angel that spoke to her about carrying in her womb the Christ child. Balaam, known to be a false prophet in the old testament, had a donkey talk to him and give him direction. Moses had a burning bush speak to him that broke him out of the rut he was in so he could fulfill his destiny. Later on, in life, it was thunder and lightning that spoke to him. So you see, there are many ways that God has that he can speak into your life and change your circumstances and bring your miracle. So pay attention; he has an entrance into your life that will be perfect for you.

REQUIREMENT FOR SPIRITUAL TRAVEL Ready set go! And we're off to the races, the spiritual races, that is. It seems that our society is obsessed with competition and aggressively getting ahead of the other guy. If you don't believe that, drive a little while on the American highways and see how many people want to get ahead of you. So it should be no surprise that we drag that dead carcass of competition into our spiritual journey and expect it to produce good fruit. Like the old boy said, "God, I want patience, and I want it right now." However, if we closely inspect the instruction manual, we will immediately notice that God has some requirements for spiritual travel. By that, I mean maturing in our walk with God and developing a relationship with him that fulfills his plans for us. The Scriptures tell us in proverbs 4:7 that the main thing we must have on this progressive journey into the world of the spirit is wisdom, and with that, her sister, understanding. But here's the key to that scripture we must know that it is not our wisdom that we accumulate by experience or education. Neither is our understanding that it's talking about that brings us into that place of spiritual maturity. The wisdom and understanding that the scriptures refer to here are spirits that God created that have been released to the believer for their maturing and success. In the book of proverbs 4:3, we are instructed that we should not lean or depend on our understanding, but we are to trust him with all that makes us who we are; our heart. We tend to collect things along the way called weights, and they easily distract and slow us down. Those things make up what we understand in life and our spiritual journey, and we are challenged not to rely on that. So you ask how do we receive the spirit of wisdom and the spirit of understanding. Here it is in condensed form. Love the Lord thy God with all my heart, soul, and mind, and he will give you. Notice who the giver is. My only requirement is to be the receiver.

WHEN THE WHISTLE BLOWS A few days ago, I had lunch with two pastor friends at the mill city Café in Longview, Washington. After lunch, I decided to stroll down Main Street and take in the sights. I have been in and out of Longview most of my life, with some connection to ministry and churches in town. My earliest memories of this small northwestern town were when dad and mother preached in one of the pioneer churches in town. Later, I came as a single evangelist and returned later as a married one. I held my most protracted revival meeting in this town for six weeks of powerful encounters with God. However, even though I had all this history, I had never walked down Main Street and taken in the town's atmosphere. It wasn't long before I came upon an iconic past memorial. As I began to read the history of this town, I noticed I was standing in front of an enormous steam whistle. As the story unfolded, I found that this steam whistle was on top of the largest sawmill in the nation in the 1930s. I also discovered that a man named R A Long had financed and built the only entire city in the 20th century in the United States, and they called it Longview. I was impressed; then I read about the whistle I was looking at. This whistle was powered by steam and was so loud it could be heard for 25 miles. The sound of this monster whistle signaled when each shift of the largest saw Mill in the nation would change. And when it did, everyone within a range of 25 miles knew it. Standing in front of that iconic whistle, I suddenly felt small compared to the history whirling around me. I was standing in the middle of the town; most people didn't know it was there, yet it changed the course of history for this entire region and generations of families that worked in its great sawmill. And in the middle of it all was this larger-than-life brass steam whistle that controlled at all. As I stood there, I was reminded of the Holy Spirit's witness in each of us. God has a whistle that goes off at various times in our daily life, telling us it's time for a shift change. Now here's a secret most people don't understand about that whistle; when it goes off, everybody around us knows it. When it's time for a change, it affects everyone around us. Stay sensitive, my friends; God is blowing his whistle inside your spirits.

FAITH ACTIVATES YOUR GENIUS Why should I wash my car if it's just going to rain again? After all, I live on a muddy road, and when it rains, there is mud everywhere. Why should I mow my lawn? The grass will grow again, and it's just a waste of time. And I've got better things to do. Why should I paint my house? I'll have to do it again someday. Besides, what spiritual purpose is there in my life for painting my house? These things all pass away. Why should I get involved in my community and its political affairs? My preacher told me to leave that alone because it's all going to burn up someday. Why should I have children? It seems cruel to bring them into such a decaying dying world. After all, Jesus is coming any day now, so I have to prepare for that to happen. I don't have time for anything else. So here I sit in my front room, waiting for the rapture bus complaining about the world around me that has been taken over by humanism and godless philosophies. If only Jesus would come and I could get out of here, I'd be happy. You have just been listening to the inner conversation of a Christian who has never understood why God put him on earth. He has an undeveloped revelation of the kingdom of God and why God gave you the genius of heaven to shape history. In the past, the most significant inventions, Scientific discovery, musical creations, and human development, had one thing in common. Those historical inventors, creators, artists, and musicians were Christians that believed God had given them genius for a purpose. They visualized a world to be conquered by the message of Christ and the rule of love. Their faith in their Creator released the genius in their spirit, and we have enjoyed their gift to us generation after generation. Let your faith in the future release the genius in your spirit so that God's gifts can enrich your future generations. YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html

BEYOND HUMAN LANGUAGE Among the many marvelous gifts that God gave us as humans is the ability to communicate with each other. A common language is the main thing that bonds people into a community or nation. When we lose our ability to understand each other's speech, we lose that thing that makes us one. The most outstanding example is the story of the tower of babel. The people endeavored to go into a spiritual realm where they were not invited. God could've stopped them in many ways, but he chose the one that broke them into small groups. He confused their language so that they couldn't communicate together. The apostle Paul talks about the tongue of men and Angels, which indicates that there is a different language for men and a different language for Angels. Paul also speaks of that in second Corinthians 12:4, where he talks about "a person that was caught up into paradise; the third heaven. There he heard words that could not be articulated in human language, and he understood a conversation that did not originate in human thought." So how do we achieve and understand a language beyond ourselves? Again Paul refers to a heavenly speech given to us by the Holy Spirit. It's commonly referred to as speaking in other tongues. It is a language beyond humans. In the book of acts, in the second chapter, we see the day of Pentecost, where the Holy Spirit invaded the upper room and filled each one there with the power of heaven. It was there that heavenly language was released so that we could communicate to the spiritual world about spiritual things. First Corinthians 12 reveals that we speak to God when we use that heavenly language and when we do, we speak mysteries. But it doesn't stop there. He explains that we have a gift from God called the interpretation of tongues. Now, how great is that? YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html

HOW MUCH IS ENOUGH? When you say to the Lord, give me, give me, you're really saying I don't believe you. Because he has already said I am giving you all things richly to enjoy; you have it already. Hold everything, preacher; what about prayer? How can I pray to God if I'm not asking him for something? That is a general thought among many Christian communities that prayer is only for asking for things. Many in the body of Christ come into the prayer closet with a list of requests, and after they deliver that request, they usually leave the closet. Then they wait to see if their faith is strong enough to convince heaven that they really need the things they asked for. When we understand that he has given us all things richly to enjoy, prayer becomes a relational fellowship with our heavenly father. If you know how big business and entertainment work, most deals are done on the golf course or at the club party. Relationships are cemented in that environment, and deals are made out of that. Why would it be any different in the spiritual world with our heavenly father? After all, the scriptures tell us that if we draw nigh to God, he will draw nigh to us. That sounds to me like a relationship that is building a bond between two people. We know God loves us but do we love his company and friendship enough to hang out with him in the quiet places of prayer? In the intimacy of the prayer closet in the quiet times of meditation, our father begins to speak to us about the mysteries of heaven. As that conversation continues, the things that we had planned and asked for begin to come our way because our father knows all of our desires. He has provided all things for you that you may receive them with lavish Joy. Your position is one of receiving what he has provided. The sign of an open heart is the sound of worship and praise, thanking him in advance for what he is giving.

CASTING YOUR CARES ON JESUS= PEACE I find it hard to understand why I have to encourage those who believe in Jesus to cast their care on him. It seems that your faith in the saving power of Jesus would also translate into the keeping power of Jesus. So I wonder why? Just about the time I'm wondering, I suddenly notice that I have picked up something that feels like care or a worry. How did that happen? After all, I'm an elder in the kingdom of God with years of experience of trust in Jesus. Yet I discovered that I'm carrying anxiety or care troubling me. It's them that I remember we have those things that resist us in the area of our soul. I'm quick to remember that the devil is not my only opposer; I also have a mind that needs to reflect the mind of Christ. I'm also reminded that Paul said he died daily to certain things in his walk with the Lord. Those things that Paul died two are the gateways for care and anxiety to enter into our minds and our emotions. So the question you ask is this; do I have to bury my head in the sand and be cut off from the world around me not to have anxiety and care? Jesus answered that when he said you are in the world, don't be a part of the world. For you and I that have opened our Spirit to Jesus Christ, we have been given a filter, and if we keep that in place, it will filter out the things from the world that would cause us anxiety. For instance, when you hear a news report full of doom and fear concerning the future of our nation. Or you hear a description of the latest prediction of a new disease that just came out. If the filter of the word of God is secure in your soul, you will not panic; you will not have fear and anxiety, but faith will arise in your Spirit. So today, as I detected the invasion of my world with anxiety, I readjusted the filter that God has given me and visited all the corners of my spiritual domain to examine my faith in the unmovable word of God.

IT'S THE LITTLE SHIPS WE'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR I never had an older brother, and I was the youngest in the family, so my sense of responsibility didn't come to me naturally. I learned it the hard way by the hand of authority—i.e., mom and dad. Human nature tends to be self-centered; that's why we currently have the "me generation" that we're dealing with. Those that have been alive for the last 30 or 40 years in America have not suffered the same as the generation that lived before them. Of course, I know individuals who have been through severe difficulties. Trials and difficulties seem to bring something out of our inner character that, in the long run, shapes us into better people. The old saying goes, "it'll either make you or break you." Even Jesus told us that we would have problems and trials in life. I'm sure this is why the Apostle John said to us that we should rejoice when trials come our way because it builds us into the people God called us to be with good character. And people of good character always look out for the little guy, the one they're responsible for. The father, who gets up early every morning and works all day, goes to bed tired just so his children can have a better life. The single mother who raises her children on two jobs believes their lives will be improved someday. These people have been in the storm, and yet we're conscious of the little ships in their life that also needed to be rescued. Just like the example that Jesus gave us when he calmed the storm. The scripture says that there were also other little ships with him. If Jesus had gone down, all those little ships would've sunk. Our faith and faithfulness to what God has called us to be as important to someone close around us where God planted us to prosper. Be faithful to your call, and you will have a great reward.

I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU- THE VOICE YOU TRUST Have you ever heard the one about the guy that was walking a mountain road and went over the side? On the way over, he grabbed hold of a small tree and was hanging on for dear life. Help, help, He cried. Can anybody hear me? Help. Suddenly there was a voice above him that said, "son, I've got you; just let go of the branch." He was shocked when he heard the voice and hollered back, who is this? The voice came back, "this is God, son; trust me, just let go of the branch." The guy hollers back. Is there anybody else up there? It's a silly story, but it makes the point about trusting the voices we hear. Jesus said my sheep know my voice and a stranger, they will not follow. Christianity is really a life of relationship with the God of creation. For many, the word father does not relate to a relationship; it relates to authority and sometimes fear. Our heavenly father intends us to know his voice because we walk with him in close fellowship not just once or even once in a while but continually. That's why we know his voice. As a kid, I remember sticking my face in the closet among my dad's suits and taking a deep breath. Just the center of his aftershave on those suits gave me security. How did I know that the scent I smelled was my father's? It's because we lived in close contact all my young life. He was always there when I needed him. Both for reward and correction, I could depend that he wasn't very far away. My passion in life is to encourage you to find that intimacy with the father so that you, too, will know his aftershave and his voice.

TRAPPED NO LONGER- FREE TO BE ME When I was a boy of about five, dad started a church in a small Northwest town filled with lumberjacks. We rented an old house on a hill overlooking the Valley with a large field behind it and a small barn tucked next to the house. Grandpa Watkins from California came by and stayed with us for a while. One day he took me into the back by the barn; he said I want to show you how to trap birds. So we collected an old wooden box, some string, and a short stick. Then we went to the kitchen and found some dried bread to make breadcrumbs. Grandpa then took me out by the barn again, where we set the box upside down, propped up by the stick with the string tied around the stick. Then we put the bate out; the dried breadcrumbs. Then Grandpa said, "George, you've got to be patient now, so we wait for the birds to begin to eat the crumbs. When they get under the box, we will pull the string, and they will be trapped." I still remember sitting with Grandpa, hoping a bird would come by so I could trap it under my box. We eventually caught one and just as quickly let it go. I think mother may have called dinner, so he went into the house. The Scriptures tell us in second Timothy 2:26 that it's possible to be in a position to be trapped by the Devil, and it tells us that if we come to our senses, we can escape the traps the Devil may be laid out for us. Psalms 91: 3 declares that God will save us from the trap of the fowler. Psalms 124:7 also reminds us that the trap has been broken, and we have escaped. Now here's the test question. Who made it possible that we could escape, and how did he do it? Of course, the glorious answer is that Jesus died for us, rose from the dead, and we rose with him, ascended to the father, and presented his blood to deliver us from the enemy's bondage. It doesn't get any better than that.

CLEAN BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS It's no wonder that the society around the first Christians thought they were cannibals eating the flesh and drinking the blood of someone. Words and language communicate an image in the minds of those who hear them. They were talking "God talk" among themselves when they referred to drinking his blood and eating his flesh. For the same reason that the early society took offense, the one we live in today does the same. There is no way an unregenerated mind can capture and understand the power and purpose of the blood of Jesus Christ. Because of that, we have crafted our songs to proclaim the power in the blood and why we still need to drink his blood and eat his flesh today. If you were to drink natural wine, you are taking into yourself the DNA of the grape. Wine experts can tell you exactly where that group comes from, even to the detail of what Vineyard it came out of by the taste of that wine. Paul declares in Second Corinthians that we should meet often and partake of the blood and the body of Jesus Christ through our communion service together. When we do that, we take in God's DNA, and everything that God is is contained in the blood before us. As we take that cup of communion into our bodies, we are receiving the life of Christ. John 6:53 tells us, "except you eat his flesh and drink his blood, you have no life in you." The simple truth I am sharing with you today is just seeds planted in your spirit so that you might ask the Holy Spirit for greater revelation on the power and the purpose of the blood of Jesus in your everyday life. If you're a new believer, it would be good for you to get an older hymn book and find all the songs about the blood of Jesus. "There is power in the blood" was always one of my favorites. "There is power power wonderworking power in the precious blood of the lamb." Another one that I love so well and sang it every communion that we took is "Oh, the blood of Jesus that washes white as snow."

WHAT YOU ENJOY YOU WILL ATTRACT
When you enjoy God you glorify God. All of the Mystic realms of heaven start with joy. Psalms 37:4 delight yourself in the lord and he will give you the desires of your heart and your petitions.
The way of drawing desires to you is through delight. Because what you enjoy you will attract.
God wants you to enjoy him.
The Victorian age of our history was a dark and gloomy period of time. Today we would call that straightlaced. From the clothes they wore to the attitudes they had toward life seem to be anything but full of joy and delight.
The Victorian age reflected the religious attitude that was generated by the preachers from the pulpit. They told them that God was mad half the time and was out to get them if they made a mistake or didn't keep the rules.
A bed rock sign of a religious system always produces an angry god that is looking for any excuse to break your leg.
Isn't it interesting that's a very name of God is love. He doesn't just love the world he is love itself. Yet the religious one sees a flexible god one who loves sometimes and hates sometimes.
Matthew 25:21 tells us there's a place called “the joy of the Lord” that we have been invited into. Have you ever wondered what that would be like to live in the “joy of the Lord” and have it affect your life in all of its facets?
We consider our self to be people of faith don't we? For the scriptures tell us that without faith it is impossible to please god. We have faith for provision and protection and direction.
Yeah I see another realm that may be something we've overlooked for strength and protection. It's something called” the joy of the Lord.”
Nehemiah 8:10 “the joy of the Lord is your strength and your strong hold.”
That place called “the joy of the Lord” is something we need to investigate.
How about it how are you in for it?

THE TROUBLE BUBBLE "If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all." We get a good laugh from the comedian who says that we go on our way, not giving much thought to the results of that confession. Rodney Dangerfield was a famous comedian in the past years and made a good living by telling people he had no respect. Then he would entertain the vast audience by relating all of the bad luck that had come his way and the ones who rejected him. A deep dive behind the scenes of people who continually broadcast this confession will usually reveal a lifestyle of problems and trouble. Oddly enough, without understanding God's word or having the Holy Spirit's help, most of these never put two and two together. They live in a trouble bubble. The book of proverbs 20:7 tells us that as a person thinks in their heart, their actions will be. If we understand that verse, it motivates us to focus on the source of trouble or blessing. The word of God tells us it comes from the heart. In the book of John 7:30, the center of us, our heart, is referred to as the belly. "Jesus said he that believes on me as the scriptures have said out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. Here is the key to breaking the curse and popping the trouble bubble. As you feed yourself upon the living word of God, it goes into your heart, and out of the heart, the mouth speaks and shapes your life and journey. This is gods guaranteed way of breaking the trouble bubble in your life. Any other attempt at it will only bring more confusion and deceptive thinking. The secret to success in life before and after salvation is believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, and we shall be Zozo. (saved, healed and delivered) Then out of your spirit, man will flow the living water of heaven to heal the world around you. YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html

CHILL OUT AND REMEMBER In the early days of a ministry in Mount Vernon, before we built the Christian Center, we had our Church office in a rented house. One day, heading to my office, I passed the bedroom where my associate had his office, and I saw him with his feet up on his desk, leaning back with his eyes closed. I thought, hey man, you could be doing something; what's up? So, of course, I ask him, and his reply has stayed with me all these years. Pastor, I'm just thinking. As it turned out, that was one of his strong suits; he had a way of thinking about things that were an amazing tool as we formed our first years of ministry. I never again ask him that question. Thinking is a form of remembering when we chill out and take time to remember the promises of God that he is the source of all wisdom; that's when new revelation comes to us. When king David meditated upon his bed, it was on the Lord and his greatness and faithfulness to him. That remembering always sets us up for Victory, and our faith is renewed because of his promises. David said in Psalms 20:7, "some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we will remember the name of the Lord our God." Why is it important to remember that? Because it sets the perimeter of what can and cannot happen, when we remember the name of the Lord, we also remember the power and authority we have in that name. Because of that, we stand bold and strong against the lies and temptations of the evil one. Because we remember who Jesus is and what he did for us, we are not tempted to doubt our ability and authority that we have because of the cross in the resurrection. To not remember is deadly because it leaves us open to deception and the enemy's tricks. When our mind is fixed on God and his promises, there is no room for doubt in our thinking and our believing.

CAUGHT UP IN HEAVENLY RAPTURES Revelation is what you know; mysteries are where you grow. This statement sounds very spiritual, but actually, it's the way of life. Everything that you knew and experienced at one time was a mystery. You stood in front of the schoolyard gate holding your mother's hand; your head was filled with the mystery of kindergarten. However, with your mother's prompting, you step through the gate, and the mysteries become revelations days later. Through every stage of life, you've experienced that same process of mysteries turned into revelations that you lived and enjoyed. As a teenager, as a young father, as a pastor, every door I stepped through; behind was filled with mysteries. Perhaps the greatest mystery in the Christian world is that of prayer. Jesus took a whack at it with his disciples in Luke 11:1 when they asked Lord to teach us to pray. These disciples had watched him perform spiritual miracles, receive supernatural answers, and wondered how it worked. They knew the way they were praying wasn't getting the same results, so they asked him for his secret. So he gave them what we call the lords' prayer. It was supposed to be called the disciples' prayer. Much of the church has missed the secrets and the depth of that prayer that Jesus gave us and has turned it into a method or a system of prayer. If you explore those scriptures again and listen to what Jesus is speaking about prayer, the Holy Spirit will open the secrets of going into the chamber and having face-to-face time with the father. Note the opening statement: Our father who art in heaven hallowed is thy name. Take a clue, my friends; that's where prayer starts in the presence of the father because that is the only place you'll get the answer from.

RE-PURPOSING THE LOG IN YOUR EYE THAT YOU MAY SEE
It's summertime in our part of the world, and the little lemonade stands are popping up in my neighborhood. Most vendors or small children want to make a few coins to put in their piggy bank or spend on Candy.
This is happening this summer because somewhere in our distant past, someone came up with the slogan "turn your lemons into lemonade."
Some distant relative of yours perhaps had a tree in their backyard full of yellow fruit they couldn't eat because it was so sour.
They were ready to cut it down when someone had a bright idea.
Why don't we squeeze that fruit into a cup and add sugar to it? And bammo, lemonade was invented.
The moment that we forget God made us on purpose just like we are, is when the gift He gave becomes a hindrance instead of a blessing.
Take, for instance, the fast-talking brilliant Aleck nephew that irritates everyone at the Christmas party. What are we going to do with him, everyone says? No one wants him around because his mouth never stops.
Before everyone cuts him off their Christmas list, grandma has a God idea.
She sends a note to the family and reminds them of God's gifting and that he made your nephew on purpose just the way he is. She says I just sent your nephew a word from the Lord and told him God gave him his talent to use his quick wit and abundance of words to be a lawyer or a preacher.
If the gift that we have is not functioning in its proper place, it will become a log in our eye that blinds us to help our neighbor remove the slight imperfection in his eye.
Release the Holy Spirit to help you re-purpose and reposition the gift in you so that you may see clearly and fulfill the purposes of God in your life.

HEY MOM, I CAN SEE TOMORROW FROM HERE. Simply stated, without a target, you'll never hit a bull's eye. This brings me to the subject of spiritual sight into the days ahead of you. Those who are leaders in the body of Christ have spent a significant amount of their focus on establishing a vision for the people. The scriptures tell us that people will be confused and lose their purpose without a vision. It takes us right back to Moses and the children of Israel when they came to the Red Sea. Because they could not see past their present problem, they began to murmur and complain and wanted to go back to Egypt; back to bondage. Paul was dealing with the same issue in Galatians when he challenged the saints who wanted to go back to circumcision and fulfill the law again. Somehow they lost their way because of the lack of understanding of why Christ came. When people lose sight of their tomorrow's and the purpose God has put them on this earth for, they become confused and discouraged and live their way. Jesus could endure the cross and despise the shame because he saw the final result; you and me as sons and daughters of God. If, for some reason, you cannot see your tomorrow as positive and full of God's purpose, let me give you some suggestions on how to recover your eyesight. Let Jesus spit in your eyes. After all, he did that when he was healing the blind man, which worked pretty well. But how can you do that today and have him heal your eyesight? If you begin face-to-face conversations with Jesus in prayer and meditation, you will find that his face will be so close to yours that the life in his voice will wash your eyes and give you sight. The Scriptures refer to it as the "washing of the water by the word of God." Tomorrow will come for us, and we can be prepared for it by allowing the Lord to open our eyes so that we may see the glory of God in every day that he is giving to us.

THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD IS YOU Here's a question to ponder while introducing you to our subject for today. Where is the line of demarcation between truth and heresy? Or, let me put it another way. How far can we go into a revelation of scripture until we get too extreme to believe? Well, obviously, I've asked questions that really have no answer. And I suppose I ask them just to point out that there is no end when it comes to gospel revelation? So I return to my opening comment; the light of the world is you. If you were raised in the Sunday School I was in, you would say the light of the world is Jesus, and then we would sing our song and go to class. Yes, I know I may be splitting hairs, but I want to draw your attention to who you are in Christ and that your roots are in the father. Jesus said as long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. ( John 9:5) However, in Matthew 15:4, Jesus said you are the light of the world. Somewhere in these two scriptural verses is a revelation that needs to be discovered in that you and I indeed are the light of the world. Of course, it should go without saying that we are nothing and can do nothing without him. Actually, that's not even the subject because we are not without him. After all, he said he would never leave us or forsake us. As a matter of fact, god the father, son, and holy spirit chose to dwell in us. Now with that settled. Grab hold of this truth. You are the light of this world, so let it shine.

BORN FOR THE STORM Some years ago, while having a family vacation on the coast of Oregon, I stood watching the Coast Guard train for rough weather. The purpose of the training was to prepare the young recruits for rescue in times of storms. The small craft they were on went into the most turbulent part of the channel, where the greatest danger was repeatedly practicing their skills preparing for the storm. My family and I stood on dry ground on a sunny day, enjoying our vacation. But out on the water was a crew of men preparing to rescue someone who was in the storm and needed their help. Among the many attributes of our heavenly father is what he perhaps does best, that is preparation ahead of time. The most significant evidence is that Jesus was sacrificed before the world was even formed. Long before you and I had any storms in our lives, Christ had already made a way for us to go through them to Victory. Before we even knew there was a devil, he had already been defeated at the cross and the resurrection. Before sickness had ever invaded our home, it had already been dealt with by the stripes upon Christ's back. When our heavenly father declared in the first verses of the Bible that we would be made in his image, we had guaranteed inheritance. Jesus declared that in this life, you would have trouble and persecution, then he added to be aware that I am with you and will never leave you. That was our guarantee that we were born for the storm. Storms come and go in our lives, but because we are created in his image and have the power and blessing of the cross and resurrection, there is no storm that can take us out. We are not storm chasers; we are storm overcomers. When the scriptures declare that we are more than conquerors through Christ who loved us, you can bank on it.

SLEEP ON IT- YOU'LL FEEL BETTER IN THE MORNING My mother's wisdom continues to follow me to this day. How often did I hear those words? Son, go to bed and sleep on it; you'll feel better in the morning. I suppose in those days; I related that suggestion more to the natural healing of the body than I did to spiritual encounters. But as I matured in the Lord, I realized that her instructions for me to go to bed were an invitation for God to speak to me and give me his wisdom in the decisions I had to make. There is a term in the King James Bible called "visions of the night," which most of us would relate to as dreams. In these visions of the night, according to genesis 46:2, Israel had his instructions from the father that directed his life and established the Jewish family. The book of Job 4:13 and 33:15 reveals that mysteries are unfolded to those that go into the deep sleep of the night where they are given instructions from the angel of the Lord. Paul the apostle, in acts 16:19 and 18:9, was directed by the Lord for his next assignment in a vision of the night. These are biblical examples of what it means to sleep on it so that the heavenly father can speak to your spirit without interference or argument from the mind. It's somewhat like God putting Adam to sleep when he created Eve so that Adam wouldn't interfere with the plan God had in mind. If Adam had been awake, eve might have looked much different. So it is with you and me as God leads and teaches us. When we lay our head on the pillow at night, our body and soul rest, but our spirit is wide awake and listening for the father's voice. In those night visions, great things are accomplished, and history is shaped and changed. So I encourage you to find a pillow and a quiet corner, take a break from the routine and sleep on it.

THE NEVER NEVER LAND SYNDROME The classic story of Peter Pan, the lost boys, and Never-Neverland is a reflection of people you and I know; that never want to grow up and face the challenge and responsibility of adulthood. In never never land, there were no clocks to remind them of the passing of time; there was no responsibility of going to work and paying the bills; it was the perfect setting for boys in their adolescence. However, notice the subtle message that came through Captain Hook and the crocodile. The principle of pressure from the trouble that comes our way forces us to grow up and face real life. The lost boys had to learn how to defend themselves and organize around a leader that would champion their cause. In real life and our spiritual life, far too many live in never-never land; the Bible calls it Babyland. You see them in all sizes and shapes and ages coming and going out of our churches with not a spiritual care on Earth because they have put all responsibility on some spiritual leader in their life. No worries, they say I'll send my request to the prayer tower in Tulsa. Oh, I don't have to know the word of God. I'll just go and sit on Sunday morning and listen to the pastor; after all, he has time to study. Never never land, folks. Then here comes old Captain Hook and the crocodile reminding us that if we don't grow up and learn how to defend and conquer, we will not accomplish the purposes of God in our life. God doesn't have to invent trouble; it comes on its own. However, like any good martial arts expert, God uses the momentum of the trouble to strengthen your muscle and teach you how to fight. Take your spiritual position in your home, your church, and your world, and make a difference. God put you in that position to change the course of history. Like they say in our Northwest country, a dead salmon can float down the river; it takes a live one to swim up. YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html

LET'S TALK GOD TALK One of the first things I had to learn when traveling Internationally was to pick up and understand the idioms of the people I was speaking to. I love to inject humor into my speaking; it relaxes people and lets them know you're a natural person. One of our great charismatic speakers, Bob Mumford, said, "if you can get people smiling, then when you hit them in the mouth, you won't split their lip." Of course, that was a symbolic statement, hopefully. I discovered that the illustrations I love to use in America didn't fit in most other nations because of our background and how we understand life and relate to it. How do you tell a baseball story or an illustration of riding in your automobile in the middle of Africa where the villager you are in has never seen either one? So it is when we enter the Kingdom of God and the world of the spirit. Some may call it Bible talk; I called it God talk. If you've paid attention to your history in America, much of our language comes from the Bible, especially our laws. Over the years, pop culture has affected us to where most people don't use biblical terms or words anymore. However, if you're going to venture into the world of the spirit, you need to pick up the language of the spirit. Unfortunately, there is no manual for God talk; you must cultivate a face-to-face relationship with him to learn his language. Why is that? We are like snowflakes; we are individually shaped and have communication skills that God has placed in us because our DNA has its language. When you tune in to the father by fellowship and meditation, you will find that your language will match his language, and you will have a harmony of sight, sound, and love that will set your life on a course of perfect destiny. Let's learn the language of heaven and talk to her father continually.

SORROW FOR JOY: BEST TRADE EVER I don't remember much of what I learned in the fifth grade, but I do remember Mr. Haley, soccer, baseball cards, and marbles. Mr. Haley was a slight man with a balding head and a strange personality. Soccer was conducted on the playfield after lunch every day. Baseball cards were carried in my hip pocket to be used for serious trading. And marbles, well, marbles were always available for a quick game when we could find some dirt and someone to play with. I did a lot of trading that year; my favorite baseball card for one I wanted from someone else. If we wanted it bad enough, we would trade two or three cards for one. Whatever it took to make the deal when we had to have that special card. Well, those days are long gone; most of those cars are lost or buried in my stuff somewhere. When I first opened my heart and life to Jesus, I had no idea what he had traded so that I could have the joy of salvation. I knew the preacher said that what I got was free and all I had to do was receive it, not realizing the price Jesus paid for my freedom. It was the trade of the ages far beyond anything we can comprehend or appreciate except through the power of the Holy Spirit. And the only way we can continue to release any appreciation is by continually praising his name and loving his presence. I traded my sorrows for joy, my sins for salvation, and my death for life, all because of the work that Jesus accomplished on the cross and resurrection.

THE VOICE OF GOD WITHIN YOU. In my journeys with the body of Christ, I have discovered that fear of deception overwhelms a significant portion of them. They believe that the power of deception is far greater than the power of revelatory truth. Because of this fear, the development of the kingdom of God has been dwarfed, and the maturity that God intended for us to be has been hindered. It has not been unusual to hear someone tell Pastor I never heard that before; how could that be true my mother never believed that way. Somehow the church and the revelation of scripture have been frozen in time. The theologians and teachers at our seminaries and our puppets are still quoting concordance, written 500 years ago. As if God spoke one time and then has been silent since. We have been identified so long as "sinners saved by grace" that when someone calls us a saint, we reject it as a fallacy. If we expect to advance into the image of Christ, we must change our conversation or identity and our voice. Second Corinthians 520 tells us that the voice of God is within us. We have been commissioned to call the world back to the father and to announce their redemption from sin. Remember this as you prepare for your future success. Your body is the temple of God; that's where he lives. Sin no longer has dominion over you; it has been dealt with at the cross. You now live in eternal life; you will never die. ( your body may lay down someday) You are now ruling and reigning with Christ in heavenly places seated at the father's right hand. Too many theologians are like our modern politicians, constantly kicking the can down the road. Everything God did for us on the cross and resurrection continues to be put off to some fairytale land in some distant time beyond our imagination. In the never-never land of rapture and heavenly bliss. What do you think the scripture means, "now is the day of salvation?" Salvation is more than just explaining the time you receive Jesus; it is everything that was given to you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ. We don't wait for death or the second coming of Christ to be forgiven for sins, do we? Of course not? Why should we expect death to be the key that gives us everything Christ did for us at the cross and resurrection? It's time for the body of Christ to release the voice of God that we have within and declare the whole council of his divine plan, and that is, he came to free the entire world from sin. That's the message of righteousness.

The man in the middle.
Let me open up our time together by asking you a couple of questions.
Question number one why did Jesus come to earth?
Question number two what was the result of Jesus and his sacrifice on the cross?
Question number three what did that sacrifice do for us, and what are we to do with that?
I have found out that I often learn more by someone asking me a question. Questions will stimulate a part of our memory that we don't visit very often.
But most importantly, it allows the Holy Spirit to teach us by revelations. Remember, Jesus said that one of the primary functions of the Holy Spirit is to bring things to our memory that he has taught.
Those of us believers know that Jesus came to earth to return the human race to the father where their original home began.
Sacrifice on the cross sealed the deal. Jesus became the final sacrifice in a long series of lambs that were slaying; he was the one that made it work.
Because of his sacrifice on the cross, we now have access to the father through his name. He told us that after the Holy Ghost came, we could ask largely in the name of Jesus, and the father would respond.
But of course, that's not the end of the story; what are we to do now that we have been redeemed?
A considerable slice of the modern church is sitting around waiting for the rapture bus so they can go to heaven and have peace and safety and long life.
However, if we remember, one of the essential things that took place was that Jesus became the firstborn of many sons.
Scriptures tell us in first John, "as Jesus is, so are we on this earth."
He also told us that we could go out and do great exploits because we have been made in his image, which enabled us to do what he did.
Jesus was the man in the middle.
If we have been made in his likeness, you and I are the people in the middle.
We stand between heaven and earth and have been commissioned to bring men and women back to the father just like Jesus did. We have been authorized to be intercessors and ambassadors, and advocates so that others hear the message that the sacrifice of Jesus has redeemed them.
Be that person in the middle this week for someone.
Be that one that throws out the lifeline and rescues that misinformed person who has not heard the report that they have already been forgiven, come home.

You will go where you're looking. This year I celebrate over six decades of active ministry. And in those years of walking with the Lord, I have worked in various positions of service. You might say I have worked myself up from the mail room to the chief executive. In the church world, we would say I cleaned toilets and swept the floor, and also served as senior pastor. In quite a few of those years, I did both simultaneously. Among the duties, I had the privilege of counseling people about their lives and the future they wanted to see God help them. I've experienced everything from the sublime to the ridiculous; and from the joyous to the sorrowful. A question I often heard was, "Pastor, how did I get here?" Most of them had no clue as to why their life was in such turmoil. When I spent time with them, I found that they were precisely in the place they had their eyes on. Why? Because of the biblical principle, you will go in the direction you're looking. And you will become what your eyes are gazing on. In the book of Hebrews, the 12th chapter and the second verse tells us that we are to look at Jesus. When sick people often came to Jesus to be healed, he would tell them to look on him. That sounds like such a curious thing to ask someone if there must be a reason. Think about it. When they came to Jesus, they knew he was a healer because of his reputation in the city. When they looked at him, they took their attention off their sickness and fashioned it on the answer; Jesus. Because of the law of God and nature, you will always go in the direction you're looking. "Looking onto Jesus, the author, and finisher of our faith."

Living from the past, not in the past. In the mid-1970s, we were on an amazing pastoral team in Southern California. It was one of the most riveting times of our life as we entered into the emerging charismatic movement. The church we were invited to be a part of was the epicenter in its region, and all nine of us pastors were up to our eyeballs, discovering things about God's kingdom that we had never experienced. Coming out of the northwest, we're even the thinking in the church was much different than what we had come into blew open the doors of revelation and set the course for the next season of our life. One of the most fascinating things we were introduced to was behind the scenes in the new Christian television station. Our senior pastor was a popular speaker, so we followed him into those places that we could never have gone. On one such occasion, I met a singer-songwriter that was going to be on the program and listen to his testimony. At this point, he had written over 1000 songs, giving you an idea of why he was so popular in the Christian world. Something you said that night had impacted me all these years. They ask him if he memorized his songs did he know them by heart. I was surprised to hear that he didn't, and here was the reason. "if I memorize the song, I would not be able to write new songs because my mind would be filled with the old ones." Living in the past, where your mind is filled with all the good and bad memories, will stop you from creating new memories that God has planned for you. This is why I say we live out of the past, not in the past. Because it is those things that have happened to us in the past that are the foundation we build our life on. In reality, you are a product of the life you've lived. One of the most precious things we receive from God our father is that we have been redeemed, cleansed, and forgiven from past deeds so that the good seeds of the past will grow up into a harvest that blesses the father's heart.

Gateway number 23-come in with me. I have been talking to you for some time now about the Bible being a gateway book, and when we open that book, we can go into the mysteries of God. Also, there are unique spots throughout the book that seems to be a more excellent Gateway than others. When you meditate upon them, heaven opens up before your spirit and takes you into places you've never been. The 23rd psalm is one of those vast gateways; when we go in, we become connected to every part of the Bible. Psalms 23 seems to be a Melchizedek psalm; it has no beginning or end. Every line has technology that takes us to the great truths in the kingdom of God. In verse one, I have no need. Because God is my shepherd, I shall not want. In verse two, he makes me lie down in green pastures where I find rest in peace. In verse three, he restores my soul because he continually refreshes me. In verse four, even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil for you are with me. Death is nothing more than a shadow; I am immortal. In verse five, when trouble comes my way, he spreads a table out for me; total supply, from the simple needs to complex ones. In verse six, I live in two different worlds; because I will dwell with him in his house forever. I have an earthly journey, and at the same time, I have been supernaturally transported to a heavenly realm, and currently, I'm seated in heavenly places with Christ Jesus. All of this starts with union with him. He is my shepherd.

The Hot Gospel. It's so hot that it will melt the hardest heart. Today I found myself caught up in a whirlwind of information and began to feel the air leaking out of my soul. Everything I was hearing was terrible news and declaring that the world we know is going to collapse and fall apart. It wasn't long before I got a hold of myself, and like Samson, I shook myself and remembered who God is and what his plans are for us as people of God. I also begin to remember the promises he made to our forefathers, those who established this nation that we live in. When I remembered who I was and came to myself, I remembered my father and his house and how many servants he had that were totally supplied because of his great abundance. One of the things that the doomsday people want you to believe is that this is the most terrible time America has ever had. Unfortunately, this is a byproduct of our failing education system, and those who go through it become functional illiterates. In the church and the society around us, if you ask questions to the youth about our history, you would be hard-pressed to find someone who had a grip on what has gone on before. We have come close to losing this nation several times, and God has intervened because of his promise and the design that he has for us in our future. We had had riots before much more severe than we experienced these last years. We had had floods, famines, and tornadoes long before they invented the global warming con game. We have had a Civil War and two world wars. Plagues of all sorts have ravaged our nation from time to time, yet here we are still functioning and going forward. The key ingredient to our success is the gospel of Jesus Christ which I referred today to as the Hot Gospel. We have had revival in this nation to a magnitude you and I have never seen. One of them was before the revolutionary war, the second great revival was just before the Civil War, and another great awakening was just before the second world war. Today I'm referring to that as the Hot Gospel. When you turn up the burner, you can melt any heart, no matter how hard. So be encouraged, dear friend; there's Victory in Jesus.

Jesus plus me equals three. That's a strange statement to open up the discussion of Christ in me, the hope of glory. The union of the godhead with the human race is a mystery that is still unfolding for the Christian church. We teach it to the limit of our knowledge, yet knowing something is being revealed today that is causing some to catch their breath in shock and others to rejoice because of it. When I was a young teenager, my father brought home a stack of books by EW Kenyon that began to open up to us that mystery of Christ in you. A few years later, an evangelist came through our church and taught about being in Christ and Christ in you, and it changed my life and understanding of my relationship with the father. In the book of John, chapter 17, Jesus prays for his disciples and, in doing so, prays for every man and woman he has redeemed. Three statements stand out in this chapter concerning his prayer for you and me. In verse three, Jesus gives us the key to eternal life: knowing the father and Jesus the Christ. This is not the case of just knowing about God but having a relationship with him through his son. The second statement Jesus makes is in verse 11; he states that they may be one even as we are one. In this statement, Jesus gives us a look into how the kingdom of God operates and that we are intertwined with the father and his son so much that we cannot be separated. He adds to that prayer in verse 21 when he says that they may all be one even as you father art in me and I in them that they also may be one in us that the world may believe that you sent me. The third statement is so powerful that he closes with his prayer with it in verse 26 and tells us that the love of God has been put within us. We are not just converted, born again, or saved; we have been made one with Christ, and in doing so, we have been made one with God. As a result, the very essence of God, which is love, is now in us and through us. The result of love is that men will be drawn to the father and find fulfillment in him.

My most urgent appeal to you in the Lord is this you have nothing in common with the folly of the empty-minded masses; the days of conducting your lives and affairs in a meaningless way are over. ( mirror Bible Eph 4:17) The plea that the apostle Paul made to those in Ephesus is the same one I made to you today. What has happened to you and me at the cross and resurrection is beyond comprehension. As the scriptures say, the natural mind cannot comprehend what the spirit has done; it takes a spiritual revelation from the Holy Ghost. The apostle Paul said our minds had been blinded to the truth that God has redeemed us back to himself. Because of that, we live in the darkness of our minds which causes us to live in the lust of the flesh and the pride of life. It's only when the light of the gospel breaks through that darkness that we see we have already been redeemed back to the father through Jesus Christ and his work on the cross. No wonder the Scriptures tell us to let this mind be in you that was also in Christ Jesus. We cannot intellectually understand what's happened; it must be a spiritual revelation called the mystery of godliness. How does it work? Pray for the prayer the old boy did in the New Testament. Lord, I believe help my unbelief. When you do, heaven will move in on you, and you will be amazed at the understanding that begins to come into a mind that had been darkening by unbelief, ignorance, and not knowledge of the scriptures.

Good intentions versus God's will. To be like Jesus certainly must be the highest goal for any serious Christian. And I suppose there are various lists of important things it would include. Some would say the most important thing would be to heal the sick others may consider feeding the hungry or helping the poor. However, I would suggest that you consider the most important thing to be like Jesus would be to obey the Father's commands that he has given. Jesus himself stated that he did nothing but what he saw the Father do, which indicates that he had his eye on his Father's every move and followed it closely. You and I, as sons and daughters of the Father, have the same opportunity to be obedient to his will. But how do we know the will of God? We have great ideas and passionate plans but are the gods will for us? I am convinced that there are many things God doesn't care which way you go or how much you do it. After all, he gives you self will help so that you can guide your life according to your conscience. The two rules that are in effect Jesus gave to us as he was teaching. Love the Lord thy God with all your heart, soul, mind, and neighbor as yourself. Good intentions or God's will, you can only really know which one is right for you if you spend time in his presence.

Owe, no one anything but love because love is the fulfillment of the old testament law. When we look at this verse in Romans 13:8, we see two subjects, both of them essential to our ongoing life in Christ. The first subject is a major one that affects our life in 100 different ways. That's the subject of living debt-free. Paul said to owe no man anything but love. It's an interesting pushback that you get from most people in this society that when you speak of living debt-free, you have to be kidding me, they say. We have been conditioned by the banks' credit card companies etc., to live on credit. Just charge it; they say everything else will be fine. But everything is not fine when all the bills come due, and you find out you don't have enough to pay the man. Most of us that have lived a while have learned the hard way not to go into debt. The scriptures tell us that the borrower is a servant to the lender. If you don't think that's true, don't pay your credit card this month and wait for the phone calls to start coming. If you wait another month or two, the threats will follow. So Paul said don't go into debt; the only thing you owe to this world around you is to love them. The second subject is the one of love and that it fulfills the law of God, especially the 10 Commandments. In short, when you love, it's impossible to steal , kill, commit adultery, or be greedy. So that pretty well wipes out the 10 Commandments. No wonder Jesus gave us only two Commandments; love the Lord your God with all your heart and your neighbor as yourself. How simple can I get? Just love one another, and life becomes so sweet.

Road trip with God-you don't know where you're going, but you're having fun. Sixty-four years ago this summer, I left home for the first time to work in a revival meeting that my sisters were conducting in Coos Bay, Oregon. I was raised in a pastor evangelist home and was involved in the gospel ministry in some aspect all my life. Everything from carrying the instruments in and out of the church to singing specials and, at the age of nine, I preached my first sermon. So I've been traveling with God for quite a while. And when I'm doing it right, I have no idea where I'm going and what I'm doing because he's got his hand on the wheel. When I'm successful, it's when I'm totally relaxed, knowing that he will guide me each step of the way. I have a built-in barometer that signals me when I'm in the flesh or my own works because I become fruitful and nervous when trying to steer the car. For the first 15 years of my life, I traveled hundreds of thousands of miles, utterly unaware of the effort it took to get there and, most often, how to get there. I had total confidence that my dad knew where he was going, so I would go to sleep in the backseat or play some game with my sisters as the miles went by. The lessons that I have learned over the years as I've traveled with my heavenly father is that as long as I rest in his faithfulness, we will always get to our destination on time and in good shape. The key to enjoying the journey with God is resting in his presence and drinking at the cup of his joy. I have found out that when it's time to make a change or take a break on this journey we're on, he will always let me know. So my dear traveler, enjoy the trip and have some fun; there are some tremendous spiritual, historic sites coming up.

If you release, you will increase. "Give, and it shall be given unto you press down shaken together and running over for the measure that you give out it will be given back to you again." Sound familiar? It should if you've been in church much, at least in the churches that I am familiar with. It's part of the offering message most of the time. And how true it is, give, and it shall be given to you press down shaken together. But wait a minute, is that just for money? Of course not? That happens to be one of those life principles that God has woven into this world that we live in. You have to put something in to get something back. I can remember the days when my children would say to me," daddy, just write a check. We look back and laugh at that now, but at the time, it was hard to get through their understanding of finances; you must have something in the bank, or the check will bounce. Put something in to get something out. The scriptures tell us that if we want friends, we have to be friendly. What a concept. You mean I have to give a smile to get a smile, absolutely. All right, let's look at our relationship with the Lord. "seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all of these things shall be added onto you." Did you get it? to seek first, then you get a return. What about that age-old idiom, the early bird gets the worm. That early bird had to give something; he gave up sleeping in. Proverbs talk about the lazy man who roles over in bed and sleeps a little longer, and yet his house is in disrepair. So if you release, you will increase. Today release love. Release forgiveness. Release a generous spirit that invites others into the same journey that you are on. Give yourself to fellowship with the Father through the power of the Holy Spirit, and you will increase in ways you have never dreamed.

It's all in your mind. Let this mind be in you that was also in Christ Jesus: who been in the form of God thought it not robbery to be equal with God. In the mirror Bible, it reads like this: the way Jesus saw himself is the only proper way to see yourself. So it's all in your mind. Could it be that we are afraid to think that salvation could be boiled down to the simplicity of how we believe and our minds? Think about it for a minute. (no pun intended) We talk about the spirit of man and the hearts of man and faith in God, so somehow, it feels wrong to think that it's all in our minds. So let me put it another way the Scriptures tell us this: as a man thinks in his heart, so is he. Wow, that's pretty powerful. So the way I think about myself and the world around me will affect the results I have living in this world and in the world to come. OK then; this verse tells us that we are to have the mind of Christ. It also says that in the mind of Christ, he thought of himself as equal with God. Now you do the math. What does that sound like to you? I'm supposed to elevate my thinking and have the same thought patterns that Christ has because I have been made in his image. No, I am not God, and I never will be. But in some mysterious working of God's dealings with mankind, we have been made in his image and have his spirit in us, so in that way, I am equal with God. Wrap your mind around that, see, and if it doesn't change your day.

I'm being stalked by goodness and mercy. Psalm 23:6. Did you know that whatever you honor will come to you? Well, it will. Take, for instance, a simple test in calling your dog to come to you. If you're angry, short-tempered, or even frustrated, your dog will shy away and perhaps not even come. However, if you have a happy heart and a love for your dog, they sense it and smell it seems, and they come running. That sounds a little silly to base truth or principle or a dog but is it? God made that dog function in this natural world. And he built within that creature a mechanism to keep them from being deceived and away from danger. Take a look at the scriptures that states, "He that has friends must show himself friendly." Or how about this one "a soft answer turns away wrath." Both of those scriptures reflect the principle of honor; what you honor will come to you. What about the world of finance? Money, money, money, everybody wants it, but not everybody knows how to get it. Yes, there are some people that it seems money just chases them down and runs over them. Why is that? It's because they have learned how to honor money. Because they have the secrets of the financial world that has opened them. So I'm being stalked by goodness and mercy because I honor them and the one who sent them. Goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in his presence forever. That's a promise you could take to the bank.

Things to remember on the way to Victory. This journey that we are on, called salvation, takes us from the place we were to the place we shall be. Some call it the walk of faith others may refer to it as the destiny that God has put in our spirit. However, you understand it there are some things you must remember along the way so that you will complete your journey in Victory. There are several things I may suggest that would strengthen, encourage and keep you focused. First of all, Joseph remembers his dream in Genesis 42: 9. God gave Joseph a dream that was the map of his life ahead of him. He remembered the dream, and it kept him on course and strengthened his resolve when he needed it. Secondly, I would suggest that you remember the day you came out of bondage according to Exodus 13:3. The celebration and the remembering of what God did for us to bring us out of bondage keeps our focus on the essential things and the important One. Thirdly I would remind you to remember that God's work is finished, and he has rested in Exodus 20:28. If the work is finished and he rested, you and I have only one thing to do, that is to rest in him. Everything we do comes out of rest. Fourthly I would remind you to remember the faith of your forefathers Exodus 32:13. Remembering our history and the foundation that has been laid guarantees our future faith and the possibility lying head. Fifthly I would remind you to remember the Lord who has the power to get wealth Deuteronomy 8:18. He is your source for all things, both natural and spiritual. And he's the One that has the power and the resources for life's natural needs. These are some of the things to remember as we journey toward our victories, and as we remember, we rejoice in the fulfillment of his purposes in our life.

How we enter the secret place. According to psalms 91, the secret place is where the most high God himself abides. The Psalmist David is talking about abiding there. In other words, this is not a short visit just to look around, or even a test run to see where it is. This statement indicates a dwelling place that produces protection forever. If there ever were an intriguing description or place to go, that would be it. Think about it it's secret, so that gives it a sense of value, and the rewards are amazing and guaranteed. Who in their right mind wouldn't want to find a place like this. Unfortunately, a vast amount of Bible readers breeze by this statement without much thought. When they do, they are missing a passageway into the world of God's amazing love, protection, and revelation. The secret place referred to is really in the heart of God the Father because it's in him that we live and move and have our being. As a kid, we always moved around the country; we didn't live long in any town. Dad and mom were pioneer pastors and evangelists, so the open road was part of our lifestyle. I can't tell you how many thousand miles we drove through the wonders of this great nation, but I can tell you I was asleep for most of it. So I can talk about traveling through the great state of Montana; unfortunately, we did it in the dark, and I was asleep in the backseat. So the question is, what did I get from my visit to Montana. The answer. I can brag about being there, but that's about it. So it is with much of our visits into the presence of the Lord; it's a quick trip, and most of us are asleep when it happens. I'm challenging you to enter and dwell, which means stay put and receive the good things the father has for you. Revelation safety, peace amazing love, eternal security. That sounds like an excellent place to go and change your address, drive down some roots and be a permanent resident. David said I'm going to dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

FAITH PRODUCES INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/
The death cult-nothing between. Those of you who have followed my videos for a while understand how I hear from God on each broadcast. A word or a sentence is dropped into my spirit, and I step into it by faith and receive the revelation that comes out of that word. I received this phrase," the death cult," after coming out of a dream I had last night. In the dream, I was at a Service in an old church that my dad pastored when I was a teenager. In the dream, I was an adult with a history of ministry behind me. As in most gatherings of this sort, there is always someone in charge and giving direction for the service, etc. That is normal and needed; even the scripture says we must have things done decently and in order. However, in this dream, the group's overseer was here and conducting business meetings. Promotions were made, and others were demoted. Because of a judgment on the overseer's part, I was demoted and penalized with a duty I had already performed in my beginning stage of ministry. Even though this was a dream, I still felt the rejection I'd been set aside, which didn't add to my self-worth. When I awoke Holy Spirit began to speak to me and drop this phrase in my heart; "death suit, nothing between." When the Spirit of God spoke to us through the Scriptures and said, "call no man father" because you have one Father who is in heaven. This was the beginning of a new order called the ecclesia, which means the body of Christ where there is neither male or female bonded free Greek or Jew; we are all one in Christ. This doesn't do away with Ephesians 411, where it expresses the five ministries that are given to the church to bring us to maturity. However, I suspect the journey is shorter than we have been teaching it. What seems to happen in the modern church when they start teaching the five ministries it becomes a permanent status of someone between us and our relationship with the Father. Everyone needs mentors and tutors when they are young, but even Paul said when I became a man, I put away those days of childish obedience to someone else. I am convinced that if the church arises to its full stature, we must learn face-to-face relationships on individual experiences with the Father himself. When this is operated in love, it enables us to walk together as one in Christ. If someone or something gets between you and the face of your Father, you begin the journey of death. You'll become subservient to another instead of to the Father. You rely on them hearing the Father and telling you what he said. Anything you receive second-hand is always on the way to becoming rotten and spoiled. This does not take away from spiritual fellowship, spiritual counseling, or receiving from teachers and prophets. Those things are intended to be part of your journey, not the journey itself. All of those things add to what you have heard the Father say to you directly and become a witness and an expression of the kingdom of God. So today, we examine ourselves again to see that there is nothing between us and the face of our Father as our relationship continues to mature.

Breaking the sound barrier- living in the impossible. On October 14, 1947, Chuck Jaeger broke the sound barrier at 45,000 feet over the Mojave desert. 767 miles an hour is what sound travels at an impossible speed to obtain, so they thought. Just 20 years later, on October 3, 1967, a rocket ship skimmed the atmosphere's edge at 4520 miles an hour. The general sense on that was it could never happen, impossible. Somewhere in the last 200 years, we began to break barriers like that and came into an age where we live in the impossible. When the automobile was invented, people said that man could not stand the pressure of going 20 miles an hour in an automobile. Now we sit in our sealed containers on highways that are made for speeds beyond our wildest imagination years ago. We are living in the impossible. How much more is that true in the spiritual world, we are a part of. The church has gone through an evolution of revelation in this last century that many thought could never happen. The big impossibility was always healing the sick through the name of Jesus. Why don't you know that one away with the apostles? We don't do that anymore. Yet over the centuries, some have stepped out and broken the spiritual sound barrier. Men and women of all eras have stepped into a realm of the supernatural and introduced their generation to things they thought impossible. This is our opportunity to express heavenly possibility and go beyond what others consider impossible. You can be what God has called you to be and go where God has called you to, and it's not impossible. Go to the source of your spiritual energy and life fellowship with the father, and you will fulfill the dream that he has for you to be his image on earth.

Beyond the barrier. When that phrase dropped in my spirit today, I first thought about Australia and the great white shark barrier they have to protect the beaches. Then my mind went to the barrier reef, does underwater walls of coral that protect the beaches and the people from storms. Then I saw a picture of a beautiful yacht parked in the cove next to a tropical island, protected by the barrier they were sitting in. So the sense of protection is in the statement beyond the barrier. And we thank God that is provided in seasons of our life when we need security and rest. But what are the barrier's purpose and the time you spend behind its protection? Is it not that you will recover your strength there and rearrange your future plans so that you may go out again to conquer Discover. What would our early world have done without brave souls that left the protection of the harbor on small little ships that they trusted in to discover the mysteries of the world? Who would have discovered the Americas, found the north and the south poles, and landed on the moon if it had not been for those who left the protection in the comfort of home? Yes, there is a danger when you leave that protection, but you'll never discover your potential until you launch out past your comfort zone. The false security of a comfort zone will always hinder your progress in the genius God has put within you. And so it is in our spiritual journey. Suppose you're ever going to discover the heights of God's glory and the depths of his revelation; you have to get off the couch and leave your comfort zone. Often there can be the terror you may feel jumping out of the airplane just before the parachute opens. But when that shoot opens, you experience something no one on the ground will ever experience. The disciples had fished all night, no doubt tired and discouraged, but Jesus challenged them one more time to cast their net on the other side. Could this be the day you cast your net one more time? There's a great catch for you that will amaze you.

Don't be asleep during this current transfiguration. If you are, you will miss the greatest revelation of Jesus Christ that this earth has ever seen. We are again involved in a spiritual shift in the earth, a worldwide move of the Holy Spirit upon mankind. More people are coming alive to Jesus and to the work that he did for them on the cross then and all the history of the Church. Nation after nation is reporting hotbeds of spiritual awakening breaking out in their nation. Some of the nations of the world and the most dangerous ones are having the greatest awakening to the love of Christ and the fact that they have been redeemed at the cross and Resurrection. At the transfiguration of Christ in Luke 9:28, the disciples were overcome with sleep while Jesus was in communion with his father. During their sleep, Moses and Elijah visited with Jesus and talked about his sacrifice on the cross. There's a line in that scripture I want you to catch as you read this. Verse 32 States, but when they were fully awake, they saw. Wake up and see what God's doing around your family and your community in Church. Don't be asleep at the wheel, and most of all, don't be asleep during the most significant move of the Holy Spirit in your lifetime happening now. I know I hear the reports and the arguments that come back. But what about all the sin that's going on around us? How about the wars in the earth and the abusive people and children? How can you say there's a move of God going on. There's a wonderful promise in the Scriptures given by God himself. Where sin abounds, grace does much more abound. I also like this one. When the enemy comes in, like a flood, the Lord will raise a standard against him. Notice that I moved the comma to where God stays in control of everything going on. So, as they say, wake up and smell the coffee or the roses, or if your like me, take a deep breath of some good northwest air and know your home.

Faces places heartaches and Joy. You're in the room; it looks familiar, then you remember. A face pops up before yours, and suddenly you Flashback to another place and time. Can you feel the heartache again? So sad, you say, but what does that have to do with me? I'm over that. OK, here's the question I have for you today. Did you really take care of the root cause, or did you put a Band-Aid on it and shove it into the closet of your memory. Boy, that sounds deep, but it's not; it's the life experience of most people you see walking around in your day. It doesn't take long to pick up the faces, places, and heartache that life conditioner out. And the way that most people deal with it is by covering it up through different types of personality quirks. The class clown that is always making a fool of himself to get laughter. The shy one that sits in the back of the room and never talks to anybody unless they talk to them first. And of course, there's the loud bully constantly pushing people around and threatening them with violence if they don't do what he expects. These people have faces, places, and heartaches that are not resolved. No wonder Jesus cried out and said come on to me, all you that are weary and heavy-laden, I won't cast you out. Jesus also invited us to come into the kingdom of God, and we would enter into the joy unspeakable and full of glory. You can't cover it up or ignore it; it must be dealt with by an encounter with Jesus Christ, the source of true joy. So next time one of those faces comes up, send it on to Jesus; he'll take care of it.

The wheel of time. Among the elements in this universe that we live in that makes it possible for life is the element of time. Time is such a massive part of our life that we often pay no attention to it because it's always around. I suppose the other dominant factor in life is money. When we were younger, we had all the time we needed and not enough money. Then after a long season of working hard, we have a lot of money but wish we had more time. The crazy part about it is that time is not ours; it belongs to someone else. Someone gave us a credit card with time on it. At some point down the road of life, we must pay the owner and provide an account for our time on earth. If you're a Bible person, do you understand that the Creator of all things, God the father is the one who gave you the credit card for the time? The scriptures tell us that one day we will stand before the judge and give an account of the deeds done in The Body. Well, now that sounds scary. There's a fair amount of those deeds we hope nobody ever discovers, yet we must give an account to the one who gave us the time to do it. So what will I do about this judgment and the account I must give someday? Suddenly I remember that the one who gave me the time that I may have squandered and wasted also gave me a promise, and he said it was possible to redeem the time. Also, I remember another scripture that tells me what the enemy has stolen from me my heavenly father would return to me seven times. Now I know what to do. I Find My fellowship in the father's presence and cast my care on him, for he cares for me. And because of that, the days ahead of me and the time I still have will be multiplied in its ability and value to the life that my Creator, my father in heaven, has given me. Every day is a gift; my friend, value your time and spend it loving God with all your heart.

Did God have a memory loss? Whoops, did I say that out loud? Well, that's what I was thinking because when it comes to his nature, the very core is love. So what about it? Did God have memory loss, or is it that he decided not to remember your sins against you anymore. Of course, we know that's it He decided because He is love itself. If you have trouble visualizing who God is and his attitude toward you, take a look at first Corinthians 13. This chapter describes love, and most of us have always related that only to marriage teaching. Love endures long and is patient and kind. Love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy Is not boastful or vainglorious does not display itself haughtily It is not conceited, arrogant, and inflated with pride It is not rude and does not act unbecomingly Love does not insist on its own rights or its own way, For it is not self-seeking. It is not touchy or fruitful, or resentful. It takes no account of the evil done to it pays no attention to suffered wrong. If you have never been able to imagine a picture of God and what he is really like, there is a snapshot of our heavenly father. Those verses give us a clear and perfect image of who he is and his love toward us that will never fail or fade out or become obsolete. If you fear rejection because of your past lifestyle and association with others, get a grip on Romans the eighth chapter. For I am persuaded beyond doubt that neither death nor life nor angels nor principalities nor things impending and threatening nor things to come nor powers nor height nor depth nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Now take that to the bank.

Why God tears down before he builds up. Have you ever wondered why it gets worse before it gets better? Or how about that age-old statement, "it's darkest before dawn." Well, there could be something to that, and maybe a God principle is involved in those statements. I think about it for a minute regarding the examples of the children of Israel in the old testament journey. They were in Egypt for 400 years, and interestingly enough, they were not enslaved all that time. Actually, Egypt was their salvation at one time when they were starving for lack of food. Joseph, the second in command of Egypt, discovered his brothers who had betrayed him and brought them back to Egypt. Now Egypt wasn't God's plan for Israel; it was not their inheritance or their Canaan land. But they became content because of the ease in their lifestyle and the prosperity of their families. However, prosperity and lifestyle ease usually lead us to miss the real purpose in life that God had intended for us. Am I in favor of poverty and pain? Of course not. But it seems the human psychic has a propensity to slow down and get lazy when they don't have a challenge ahead of them. So what does God do he gives us a bear and a lion along the way to sharpen our skills. Why would he do that? Because he has a Goliath set up just around the corner that will take us to our destiny and the purpose he has planned for us. Our life is often shaped by the challenges we embrace and those we run away from. Why does God tear down before he builds up? Because he knows you can't build on feeble and false foundations because you will lose everything you invest if you do. The illustration of pouring new wine into old wineskins would give us the principle we're talking about. I believe God is deconstructing much of what we have been taught from the mind of men concerning who he is so that we may know him in his purity. Much of what we know about God has been filtered through the thoughts and fears, and suspicions of others. I believe we've been called to have a face-to-face relationship with a father so that we might know him and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of your spirit.

I wonder what it was like the day after the resurrection of Jesus? Seeing that the resurrection of Jesus is the most important and influential event ever in human history, I'm expecting to see something explosive. Why don't we look and see the effects of the resurrection or the day after it happened? According to scripture, the first thing I see is a woman in the garden next to the tomb weeping. Oh, that doesn't look good. Then we take a peek at the disciples hiding in a house, fearful of going out in the streets. What is going on with that? No, keep in mind this event that just happened has shifted history. The age of the old testament has been closed, and a new era has started called the kingdom of God on earth. Jesus is gone into Hades to preach to those that had died and left them forth in freedom. He is also taking his blood to the father, who has been accepted as the sacrificial lamb, pure and holy. Yet I look around and see sadness, fear, and a loss of vision. The disciples were expecting a physical kingdom where they could sit next to Jesus on the throne in Jerusalem. All they could see was that their leader had been killed, and they were on the run for their life. That doesn't sound like much of a celebration on the day after the resurrection, does it? Well, of course, we know that the days moved on, and eventually, the disciples came around, the church was born at Pentecost, and the seed of the kingdom was in the ground growing. In case you hadn't noticed, we are living in the shaping and changing of history at this very moment. Things happening on the earth and in our nation are so powerful that there effects will change our future and give us the promises of God unfolded. Yet because we can't see their results today, there is sorrow and fear in the world and, sadly, in much of the church. Many are fastening their eyes on what they see around them and in the news reports and have taken on a spirit of fear and worry anxiety that brings torment. So what are we to do? Keep your eyes on Jesus and believe the prophets, and you will prosper. Multiplied millions are turning to Jesus every day in nations around the world. So rejoice, we are on the winning side.

And they lived happily ever after. As you may know, Hollywood's early founders and creators were from a Jewish background. One of the stories of their founding that I heard was quite intriguing. Because the Jewish people have suffered such persecution through the centuries, a group of them decided to build a place they could produce stories with happy endings. I suppose the idea was to create a world with stories and films they could live in that would counteract the suffering of their personal lives. So because of the founders of Hollywood and their ideas of right and wrong with a firm belief in justice, the majority of what they produced in the early days had happy endings. If that sounds familiar to you, it's because it's the original plan your heavenly father laid out for all of his children to live happily ever after. However, something came along called a fall in the garden because of Adams's treason. Even before that took place, our heavenly father prepared a world for us to live in that we would live happily ever after. That's what it means when it declares that Jesus was sacrificed before the foundation of the world. The cross of Jesus Christ was so powerful that everything before and everything after the cross had been covered by its accomplished purpose. All through the old testament, the prophets, kings, and priests were empowered by the work of the cross. God was preparing a place called the Kingdom of God where we would live happily ever after. So now you and I have entered that kingdom by faith in Jesus Christ and are now in that active stage of Life eternal where we truly are living happily ever after. The Life that you have in Christ will never end. You did not get saved so you could go to heaven. You believed in Jesus Christ and his work on the cross and became eternally alive, never to die. That's about as close to living happily ever after as anyone could hear about on this earth. Don't wait for heaven to enjoy eternal Life; you've got the seeds, and you know it will take you on into His future, Life forever more.

The hallelujah side. What is that? When I was a young kid in our Pentecostal church, we sang a song called "the hallelujah side." I just supposed that everybody knew what the hallelujah side was because of the enthusiasm that they sang the song with. And I had my own ideas about what it was, and I knew it must be a happy place because everybody was singing loud and strong. "All glory be to Jesus, let the hallelujahs roll, let me sing my saviors praises far and wide For I've opened up to heaven all the windows of my soul, I'm living on the hallelujah side" So what could the author of the song really mean when he's talking about the hallelujah side? And what would be in the mind of an enthusiastic audience building out loud tones with joyful sounds singing about the hallelujah side? Let me see if I can express it like I suppose a child would receive it or see it. There's a main street running through our little town, and it has two sides to it. On one side of the street is depression and fear, and loneliness and sorrow dwell in the houses and storefronts along that side of the street. Strangely enough, a dark cloud never seems to leave that side of the street. Those that live there shuffle back and forth as if they really didn't have any place to go, just moving along looking down at the ground. They call this, "the I am depressed, and I am a victim side." Yet on the other side of the street, the sun is always shining, and a whistle comes from the lips of men as they walk along, and a song comes out of the happy lady as they enjoy the day. They call this the hallelujah side. So what makes the difference same street, the same town, two different groups of people living life. Believe me, it's been investigated by many people and this is what we found out. We discovered that what you see is what you get. Your words attract things towards you. The one who confesses that they are a victim and there's no hope for them goes deeper and deeper into a life of depression and bondage. But the one who has a hallelujah on their lips and gives praise to their Creator will attract blessing after blessing, and the sun will shine on them. So my friend, guard your heart, for out of the abundance of the heart, the man speaks. Because the words you speak Will determine the side of the street you live on. Hallelujah!

The blank slate. God said in the Scriptures that he would write his laws in our hearts. So how does that translate to our daily lifestyle of following Christ? What does it mean to have the laws of God written in your heart? In reality, we do not act out of our minds by reason or thinking; we operate out of our hearts. That sounds so odd and unusual in our society because of the strong emphasis on educating the brain. The results have given us a generation of people who exhibit selfish and harmless activities void of heart, passion, and purpose. When the scriptures tell us that "as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he, "it is not referring to a metaphor of some kind, and it is speaking of the actual human response to life which proceeds out of the hearts of the human. As young Christians, we sang the song "come into my heart Lord Jesus come in today, come in to stay, come into my heart or Jesus." So if God writes his laws on our hearts, there must be room for them to be written. When the heart is filled with man's ways, there is no way for God to begin to apply the truth of the kingdom of God to that man. If the laws of God, i.e., the revelation of Jesus Christ as Lord, are applied to a heart filled with man's ways, it becomes religion. Every religion is Spond out of someone trying to apply the revelation of the kingdom of God through Jesus Christ over their own perceived ideas of life and eternity. So we must have a blank slate of hearts ready to receive the complete revelation of grace applied through the blood of Jesus Christ. How do we prepare our heart so that it may receive a pure revelation of Jesus? It's the simple act of believing and repenting. Believing is an active submission that cleans the heart to receive. Repentance is the process of a man shedding his opinion of himself being the ruler of his own life and changing his mind to that fact. Tradition calls that salvation. I call it a clean slate. Now God can write His law on my heart.

Unconditional love. Oh, brother, that sure sounds religious and high-minded.
I know God is love, and I know we are supposed to love one another, but after all, life is tough, and you've got to be careful who you let close to you.
Whoops, did I say that out loud well? I know I thought it often enough as I'm learning the father's heart? Love.
I've said many times, OK, OK, I believe in love but give me power; we need more power in the church. Oddly enough, it seems like the congregation of people love power because they come out in droves when the power boys are in town.
It's biblical: heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out devils prophesy; it's all there except for one little caveat.
It's not genuine unless done out of a heart of love.
OK, I received that, but I have a hard time loving what I do about that.
Love is the original contagion; you get around it, and it just jumps on you. That's why we've been invited by the father to come in and fellowship because he is the true source of love. After all, we can only love through the love that God puts in our heart.
In our effort, we can muster up pity and human caring sorrow for their problems, etc. Those expressions of emotion minister to the soul of the person, not the spirit.
The love of God ministers to the spirit of the person, which affects the whole person.
So the door is open to the father's chamber; come on in, let's have some FaceTime with the God who is love.

You cannot be lost unless you belong. That's such a simple statement yet so profound.
Unfortunately the world around us has completely missed the fact that they belong to someone his name is Jehovah.
Jesus gives us three examples of things that were lost and then found in Luke 15.
First of all we have the lost coin. Notice the woman in whose house the coin was lost.
It was in the house of the woman who owned it. There were no strangers in that house looking for the coin. We would call them thieves. Didn't Jesus say that the thief comes to steal kill and to destroy but I have come to give you life and that more abundantly.
So the one who owns you already is the one who gives you life. It's not the thief he's come to steal he doesn't hold you.
The question then comes down to who really is in charge of the world who has the title deed to the cosmos and all that live within it. Didn't David the writer of the Somme say that the earth is the lords and all that are in it?
If you were temporarily in the hock shop that has already been taken care of. You have been redeemed back to the father by the cross and the resurrection and the power of his blood.
That's why the scriptures declare that you have been bought with a price therefore glorify God in your mortal bodies.
That statement is not just to Christians who have confess Christ as Savior. That declaration has gone out to the entire world they have been bought and paid for their rightful master is God himself.
That's the good news that comes out of the story of the prodigal son and the father that was waiting to receive him. He never stopped being a son even though he had lost it all and was living with the pigs. The gospel message is and always has been come home the father loves you you're still my son.

Are you a mystic? Well, isn't that an odd question to ask this early in the day? The picture that comes to most people's mind when you say Mystic frightens most of the traditional church. Matter of fact opens, till a couple of decades ago, the word wasn't honored except by some fringe movement in the body of Christ. So if you're an old-timer like me, you have to have a mind change to see what God is speaking to this generation of young soldiers that are being raised to take the kingdom around the world. What is a mystic, and are you one? First of all, a mystic exists in a world of spiritual reality. To the Mystic, a spiritual experience is familiar to them as it was to those in Bible times. The gospel has brought the Mystic into intimate fellowship with Godhead. They walk the high road of truth, or the old prophets and apostles down through the centuries have walked. The martyrs' reformers and Puritans evangelist missionaries of the cross all lived a mystic lifestyle. The Mystic differs from the ordinary orthodox Christian only because they experience their face down in the depths of their very being while the other does not. The Mystic is quietly, deeply, and sometimes almost aesthetically aware of the presence of God in their nature and the world around them. This describes the generation of young zealots that are being raised in the kingdom of God to take this world for their king. It is a life of personal relationship with God that they know intimately, and they are indeed friends of God. All over the world, men and women are experiencing a face-to-face relationship with the God of creation and the father of all mankind. This is all made possible by the work that Jesus did for us on the cross and at the resurrection. Ask the father because he said he would show you the Way. Come on. Mystics, let's enjoy the journey together.

How to live on the way to eternity. If that's the first time you've heard a statement like that, then I need to do some explaining. Come to think of it; if you've been raised in the church and I've heard a statement like that, I need to do some explaining. Sadly, most of us as believers park at the first revelation we have on God's kingdom. When we opened our spirit to Jesus, we were taught that we would live forever. Then, of course, they added that you have eternal life after you die. Well, the scriptures that capture the words of Jesus are very clear on when that eternal life happens. We don't die to receive eternal life. We believe in Jesus Christ to receive eternal life. So how am I to live if I believe I am now eternally alive in Christ. Plainly speaking, we shape our lives and plans based on our concept of the future. This generation of young people that have been through the universities and were raised in Hollywood movies are convinced there's no hope for them in the future. Because of that, the suicide rate among that age group is off the charts. Why? Because when you have no revelation of the eternal life that Christ has given you, the future is nothing but darkness and gloom. However, those who put their trust in the Lord live life full of vision and purpose and the joy of the Lord. The reason? We are now living life this life with eternal life residing in us and flowing out of us because of Christ. Death is not my master; I do not fear it. Why? Because Christ conquered death and took the sting out of it. When we were raised with Christ from the dead as he was, we received the same life that he received; it's called everlasting life. That's what we live in today and on into every future day ahead of us. So rejoice you will never die. Oh, there will be some pretty significant changes along the way, as a matter of fact, some supernatural changes. But no worries, that are in God's hands; he will take care of it.

Heaven is not a retirement club. It's pretty amazing all the variations and ideas people have about heaven and the afterlife. If you're a non-church person, your idea of heaven has been shaped by Hollywood and the movies they have produced in the last several decades. Hollywood has trained you that angels are named Charlie, and they ring a bell when they get their wings. The subject of God from Hollywood comes in all forms of thought and perverted ideas. They have attempted to introduce God in several forms. Of course, all of them are man's ideas and someone's perspective of what they think God would be. If you're a church person, you have your own set of befuddled teachings and half-baked ideas of heaven and God himself. I don't say this lightly. I was raised in the church, and the message was never really clear and sometimes not understandable. Of course, this is a statement about the church in general. I am aware that many excellent teachers, pastors, spiritual leaders, etc., understand heaven and who God is. In the last 15 years, you may have been hearing about people going to heaven on a spiritual journey and coming back, reporting what it's all about. Of course, this is way out of general Orthodoxy in the church, and Orthodoxy means that everybody thinks and believes the same about a particular subject. Of course, that's what got Jesus, and the apostle Paul in trouble, wasn't it. They refuse to repeat what the elders of Israel have been teaching for centuries. Pay attention because I believe God wants to peel the onion of revelation concerning heaven and his throne room. He has invited us in, and we don't have to wait to die to go there. And like Roy Rogers and Dale Evans often said, "happy trails to you."

The dream album and roadmap. There seems to be renewing interest in dreams and visions in the church. I believe it's healthy for the body of Christ to understand the purpose of both dreams and visions. So let's talk just a little about those biblical occasions that are referred to as night visions, or you might call them dreams. An essential tool for guidance, revelation, and warnings comes through the Bible called night visions. In the first book of the Bible, Genesis 46, Israel is instructed by God through a night vision. The book of Job is filled with God speaking and giving direction and instructions through the process of night visions. The great old testament prophet Daniel received his lengthy and profound prophecies through the method of night visions. Dreams in the night. Zachariah entered into a series of teaching and experiencing heavenly throne room business in night visions. Joseph, the stepfather of Jesus, was born in the night vision to flee and go to Egypt. And of course, the apostle Paul had his most important decisions through this beautiful gift that God has given us as men and women; dreams in the night, Night vision. With that record in mind, prepare yourself for new adventure's in God and his kingdom through the mechanism of night visions. If you believe you will receive. Side note: keep a notebook close at hand and write them down.

I'm pressing on the upward way, new heights I am gaining every day. That's an old song of the church referring to the Christian who is progressing in their developing relationship with their Father. However, when we use the word "pressing," many would equate that to energy, busywork struggle to go forward. In reality, to press into God simply means leaning into him like the apostle John did and putting his head on His chest. The scriptures tell us to seek the Lord while He may be found. If we're not careful, that could make us think that He's hiding or doesn't want to be found, so we become nervous and full of anxiety. I believe that the word press could be exchanged for the word rest. The apostle Paul talks a lot about resting and trusting that what God has done for you will be complete in you. As a young man in the ministry, I pressed into the Lord, yet much of the time, I had a nervous frustration or anxiety, wondering if God was ever going to come through for me. Oh yes, I had faith in praying for the sick and seeing them healed. And I had faith that men and women would come to Jesus when I preached. And they did. However, the underlying struggle would have been, am I ever going to reach that place that I desire and believe God has called me to. There were too many years of anxiety that I suffered unnecessarily. Why? Because my God, my Father is in charge of my advancement. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart lean not unto your own understanding in all of your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct thy path."

You are God's address, the place where he abides. When Jesus told his disciples that he was going away to make a place for them where he was, they would also be, that place he made for us was not "a mansion over the hilltop in our home in the sky in the sweet by and by." Jesus went into the Father's presence with his blood and presented the Father with the ransom for every man and woman that ever came into this earth through the womb. That mansion over the hilltop that we sing about in our human understanding is a spiritual dwelling place He made in the hearts of men and women. Because of the cross of the resurrection, God was able to move into temples made without hands, you and I. In John 17, Jesus said Father make them one just like you, and I are one. Because of Grace's work on the cross and by the resurrection power, he made it possible to be one with God, dwelling together in that spiritual mansion. With that revelation hitting our understanding, what are we to do with it? When we understand what it means to have Christ in us, the hope of glory brings health and peace to our body, soul, and spirit. We see a glimpse of that lifestyle in Ephesians 317. That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith that she is rooted and grounded in love may be able to comprehend with All Saints what is the breadth and length and depth and height and to know the love of Christ which passive knowledge that she might be filled with all the fullness of God. So there you go.

The mind that our creator gave us is beyond our comprehension of its power and its ability to control life in our future. That wonderful scripture in Philippians four, the eighth verse, gives us a list of things to think about. Is this a form of mind control, or is it the principles of life God has given us so that we might live in peace and health? That list of things to sink on includes purity, honesty good reports. What is that all the mind is to focus on? No, I don't think so. Those instructions that Paul gave us for our mind to focus on have to do with the human side of life. The real power in our mind is on the spiritual side because it brings us to Christ. Paul tells us in the book of Ephesians that we are to be renewed in our innermost minds, which is the spirit of your mind. We have been taught over the years that we need to get the truth of God's word from our minds and drop it down into our hearts. However, I believe it's the other way around. The revelation of Jesus Christ starts in the heart and captivates the thinking. The essence of repentance, including the root word of repent, means to have a change of mind. So the apostle Paul tells us in Philippians two and five, let this mind be in you that was also in Christ Jesus. Jesus knew exactly where he came from, who he was, and what his purpose on earth was. Think about it; folks, let this mind be in you. Know where you came from, why you're here and where you're going.

Years ago, when I was a team pastor in a great church in Southern California. I was the lead pastor for the evangelism team that went out to visit and witness those who came to visit our church. One day my secretary came to me and said Pastor, look at this address; we can't get there from here. Well, after I explained to her that those dear people got from their house to the church so surely, we could find their house. We got a good laugh out of that, but later I began to think about the seriousness of the statement; you can't get there from here. Have you ever heard someone say; I can't get into that? In other words, there's no doorway for me to go through so I can get into or understand the subject at hand. Psalms 23 is one of those doorways that allows us to get into the world where God dwells. In this world, we can see and hear clearly and learn all about love in God's world and how God never stops loving us. Of all the questions I've been asked repeatedly, I suppose the most repeated one is; Pastor, how can I get into God? Come along with me for a few moments as we journey through Psalm 23. You'll be amazed at how many doorways there are into the things God has prepared for you.

Is there a father in the house? A statement was made that caught my eye this past week. It was from a prominent man that I have confidence that he knows his business and the society we live in. He said the central problem in the United States and possibly other Western nations is the absence of fathers in the home. When the presence and influence of a father are missing from the home, the children are affected in so many different ways. A survey of the prison population will tell you that a vast percentage of the men in prison for crimes they have committed had no father influence in their life. There is something about the hand of the father on a child that not only gives them guidance for life but also puts a governor on childhood rebellion. I am keenly aware of the single-parent situation in our nation, especially for mothers raising their children alone. We pray for our single mothers; we love them and support them in every way we can. But the pattern that God made is male and female, which makes the family unit. Change the law, pervert society, ignore the principles of God, and all you get is chaos and trouble. As someone said, you can put a rat in a cookie jar that doesn't make him a cookie. So what's the answer? We need the spirit of fatherhood to return to our society and our churches. God has a way of restoration; He knows how to bring back what was lost. If you're a father, ask God to make you the best one you could ever be. Ask for wisdom every day on all the little things you do to raise your children. If you are a pastor, male or female, you have the father position in the house. You have the steady hand and the wise answer that gives peace to the children. You are not lord and master; you are filling the place God gave you, representing the fatherhood of God Himself. Just because God is our Father doesn't make Him a dictator because pure love always makes way for healing and success. Is there a father in the house? I say yes, and I call them to rise and be what God has called you to be.

Our worth is defined by His gift.
Imagine with me for a moment that we are much more valuable to God than we have ever considered. Our understanding of the subject of pride needs to be re-interpreted to us. We know pride comes before destruction and a hottie spirit before a fall. We've had that preached to us enough or maybe too much to where we have no pride in who we are or what God made us.
Imagine then how God thinks about us and what value he puts on you and me.
Our value to God is directly connected to the price he paid to redeem us back from the prison that we had lived in since the fall of man.
When Jesus was teaching about the Kingdom in the book of Matthew 13, he said there was a man who found a great treasure in the field, and he sold all that he had to purchase the field.
Then in the 45th first, there was some man who found a pearl of great price and sold all he had to purchase the pearl.
This is directly connected to John 316 we're god so loved the world that he gave the only son that he we begot or birthed. These scriptures concerning the Kingdom of God, which you and I are a part of, tell us that God sold everything he had, his most precious treasure, to redeem us back to himself.
Remember this next time the dark cloud of depression drifts over your head, and you begin to think about how unworthy you are to be a son or daughter of God. Remember the price that your heavenly father paid to redeem you and bring you back into the complete restoration of your sonship and membership in the Kingdom of God.
Remember also; it was the mercy of God that forgave you and the grace of God that empowers you.
Rejoice; you are the treasure he found and the pearl he redeemed.

Our father in heaven- the pattern. Jesus told the people he was speaking to that he did nothing but what he saw the father do. That's a very interesting statement; it is also life-giving because it is a law of life and is active in our life whether we know it or not. On the natural side of things, you end up doing what you see your father do. You could put that statement in the category of "the sins of the fathers." However, because of the cross and resurrection and holy spirit importation, we have been given a new blood system that carries the DNA of our heavenly father. Therefore we are new creatures in Christ Jesus, and all things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. What's new? Because we have been made into his likeness, we know I have the same father. Some of the old things that have passed away are the generational curses our forefathers passed on to us because of the fall. Now because of our faith in Christ, we have a new generational line that goes directly to the father's heart because we have come out of his bosom. What does that mean in real-time? I can do the same thing Jesus does. As a matter of fact, that's exactly what he told us to do after the Holy Spirit came. We are to ask the father largely. Why can we do that? Because our heavenly father will give us all things richly to enjoy. And like he did to Jesus in John 5:20, he will show us all things also. This is Father's Day weekend in our nation, and I am reminded again that my pattern as a father is to be like my heavenly father to my children. Throughout my child-rearing, I was conscious of making my decisions and judgments about my children as my heavenly father would. If you have bitter memories of a father who did not understand you or did not know the love of a heavenly father. I encourage you to release that to the Lord and remember those things are buried and gone because you were new in Christ Jesus. You have a heavenly father who cherishes and cares for you and tenderly guides you into all truth. So rejoice in this happy Father's Day.

No more memory of sin. What! Can that even be possible? I thought I was just an old sinner saved by grace. Well, yes, that's true. I was a sinner, and God's grace has cleansed me and made me into a son of God. So why do so many pulpits keep trying to drag me back into the memory and guilt of my past life? Why am I conscience of sin if the scripture says I am free from it? Do you want to help me out here? Take a guess at it? When I started preaching that you didn't have to send every day, it was a startling revelation to most of those who heard me, including myself. I was raised in an excellent Christian preacher's Home. Yet the culture I was raised in, I had to repent of my sins every night before going to bed. So that taught me that I was still an active sinner in jeopardy of going to hell every day. The common prayer for children at bedtime goes something like this: Now I lay me down to sleep, Lord, I pray my soul to keep, and if I die before I wake, Lord, I pray my soul to take. What does that make you think of when you hear that prayer. Here's a little kid that doesn't know if he's going to go to heaven, so every night, he's got to re-repent and check everything out to make sure he's still right with God. It's no wonder the body of Christ is so nervous and fearful about their place in God's family. It takes God's faith to believe what God says about you. The scriptures tell us that because of the cross and the resurrection of Jesus Christ, sin no longer has dominion over us. So, in conclusion: you don't have to sin every day. Check your inheritance out; you may be shocked by who you are and what family you belong to.

A fence around the people's house. When I heard that spoken into my spirit, I was instantly taken to two pictures. The first picture I saw was of our capital in Washington DC, surrounded by barbed wire and Constantine wire. This is the people's house to be accessed by ordinary folk like you and me. This is where we can come to for help in the time of need and wisdom and guidance. Yet those inside the people's house have taken authority over and away from the people and told them they could not enter anymore. Essentially, they say we will do your thinking and tell you how to live. And then, the second picture came to me because God speaks through natural things and gives spiritual direction and wisdom. This picture is of the church, the body of Christ, or we might see the people's house. In many ways, some of the same things are happening in this "people's house" as in Washington DC. The leaders in charge have subliminally and sometimes, on purpose, put up a fence that keeps the people in their place so that leadership can stay in control. We are not talking about the inner workings or function of a church organization or building. We know that any organization must have someone who gives directions or orders and sets the pace, and that's only normal in the function of any healthy, sound organization. What I'm referring to today is the revelation that comes from the father, which should go directly to the Saint who has the Holy Spirit in him to teach them. Unfortunately, the body of Christ has been trained to sit in the pew and be taught by someone who supposedly has gone to the Lord to hear. To me, that sounds like the old testament covenant, and that sounds like Moses when he brought down the 10 Commandments from the mountain. In the New Testament covenant, we've been invited to go to the mountain in here God for ourselves. But can I be trusted to hear God correctly without a seminary education? I think God thinks so because the scriptures tell us that he chooses people that are unlikely to be selected by those in charge of the group. So what's the word today. You have been invited into the holy of holies by the blood of Jesus Christ so that you can have a face-to-face relationship with her father. And when you do, you will receive direct instruction, direction, encouragement, and purpose from his lips. Does that make the educated leaders nervous? You better believe it. That's what Jesus came to set us free from, folks.

"I once was lost, but now I'm found, was blind, but now I see." As I read those words, I can hear the song and remember the teachings of my early youth; the God I love so much is in the recovery business. Because Jesus became God's face and voice on earth, we know exactly how our heavenly father feels about us and what his purpose is for mankind. Jesus came to save and recover those lost through the fall of man in the garden of Eden. The great divide occurred when Adam rebelled and broke the covenant with his maker. From that point until the cross and resurrection, mankind was separated from God and could not communicate with him. Israel was chosen to be the carrier of the seed of heaven that would produce Jesus Christ. God had a plan to recover all. God is in the recovery business. Jesus gave a parable of the lost coin, the lost sheep, and the lost son. All of these examples were a snapshot of the heart and nature of his father in heaven. The essence of the gospel of Christ is found in John 3:16. It doesn't get any simpler or more straightforward than the statement made here. "for god so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that who so ever believe it in him should not perish but have everlasting life." God, our father, is in the business of recovering things, and he's good at it. Also, cast the care of anything lost in your life and ask the father to bring it home. He loves to do his job.

The Heavenly Highway Patrol. I had a dream last night, and in it were several mid-60s Chryslers. Painted on their doors in black-and-white, it said Highway Patrol. The 60 Chrysler was a beautiful machine. Mean looking with the biggest engine on the road. That's why the highway patrol had adopted them to perform their duties. In the dream, these patrol cars were moving in and out of the traffic in the town, dealing with the business at hand and bringing peace where there was trouble. When I asked the Lord what that meant, he said the patrol cars represented the angels of God that move in and out of our lives, bringing peace and safety to us. In Psalms 23, we are introduced by name to two of those angels. Goodness and mercy. These two have only been will follow you all the days of your life. Just think about them as God's Heavenly highway patrol. When God said he would never leave or forsake us, that also included Heaven's host of angels that will never leave us. So tonight, as you rest your head on your pillow and hear the sound of a big Hemmi Chrysler engine. Let that be a reminder to pay attention to the angels on duty in your room as you sleep and your day as you work. My favorite anchor scripture for this is Psalms 91:11. God promised that he gave his angels charge over us to keep us in all of our ways. Sleep on that.

Stay- the incredible power of faithfulness. Can you imagine a world without the law of faithfulness to control our environment? We may interpret that as the law of nature or a scientific fact that the sun comes up every morning, and we don't give a second thought about gravity not being faithful to its original design. If gravity decided to be different and not obey the command to stay the course, everything would fly apart. This is why the controlling factor for everything in our world and the world to come is under the steady hand and discipline of Jesus. The Scriptures tell us the word of his power maintains all things. In many ways, human nature, it's not a custom to stay put, and I think they refer to that as a Wunderlust spirit. The desire to roam and do our own thing has been in bread from the fall in the garden. Faithfulness and obedience to God's commands are solidified and anchored in work accomplished on the cross and at the resurrection. We as believers now can be faithful and obedient to what God has called us to do; live as sons and daughters of God. Stay in your gift. Stay in your calling. Stay in your place. And you too will hear the master say, well done, good and faithful servant enter into the joy is that I have prepared for you. YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html

Dream a dream with me because the possibilities of tomorrow are beyond your imagination, or are they? The lesson learned from the story of the tower of babel is that the people involved in whatever they could imagine could do. That's why God came down and confused their language because their imagination was evil. Built into our DNA in our human makeup is the ability to dream and imagine and create what we have seen and heard from within or from without. The apostle Paul tells us in Philippians four and eight that we were to think about certain things that were good and pure and honest and true. We were to give ourselves and our thought process to what we have seen and heard from the message of the gospel that he preached. The gospel of Jesus Christ is a pattern that if we meditate upon the word of God, it will build a highway ahead of us that we can go forward on and be a success and all we do. So dream a dream with me because out of your dreams will come your tomorrows.

Things happen when you pray. Unfortunately, too many people in the body of Christ have negative feelings toward the whole subject of prayer. Oh, there are many reasons why they would feel that way besides just the fact that the enemy is discouraging them. "I know I need to pray, Pastor, but I'm so busy, and I have all these kids that I need to take care of at home." "well, you know I tried praying, and nothing seemed to happen; I just gave up on it after a while." "pastor, I don't know how to pray; you pray; you're good at it." Yes, all kinds of reasons not to pray. However, the Scriptures still tell us that if we pray, things will happen to us that are positive and powerful. Jesus said in the book of Matthew when he was instructing his disciples about prayer when you pray, not if you pray. That tells me we are expected as God's children to talk to him as a father or a regular and repeated pattern of prayer. How about it, folks, are you ready to recommit to those sweet and beautiful times of refreshing in the presence of the Lord. We call it prayer.

The real giant is fear. In his 1933 inauguration speech, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt made that famous "quotation, there is nothing to fear but fear itself." The Bible and God certainly agree with that sentiment that the greatest giant we have in our life is fear itself. The scriptures tell us that fear has torment attached to it. No one in their right mind wants to be tormented, yet they stand in long lines to buy a ticket to a scary movie. They sit in a dark room and scream as their emotions become all tangled up in the movie's plot. Then, at night, they dream about it and lose sleep because they have exercised the muscle of fear, and it's now dominating them. The first thing that God says to us through the lips of an angel when they show up to give us a new revelation is a fear not. Why would that statement fear not to be repeated so often when an angel appears? The answer is that fear will block you and me from receiving the revelation that the angel has brought to us from heaven itself. If it's true that we can't get to God without faith, then it's doubly true that fear will block our entrance into his presence. How many of us have heard someone teach or preach a revelation we couldn't receive in our journey? It was too far out. Somehow fear entered our emotions, blocking us from receiving the revelation for fear of criticism from our friends. Yet years later, when we were more mature, we embraced it because we were not afraid now. Jesus said and Luke 12:30 to fear not little flock for it is the father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Translation: you don't get the kingdom if you fear. Here's the good news. Perfect love casts out all fear.

You can only hunger for something that exists. Some years ago, while on a ministry trip through Poland, we spent a week at a camp meeting in the woods. We ate soup crackers and sliced meat three times a day that entire week. By the end of that week, we were hungry for a McDonald's hamburger. We could taste it, and I think we even dreamed about it. At the first McDonald's we came to, we made sure we had our fill of the hunger revealed to us. Why McDonald's? Because we knew they existed, they were out there somewhere, just waiting for us to find them. Deep within your spirit, God has placed a hunger for heavenly things. God placed within you a conscience that has been programmed to keep you in line with his purposes for your life. Our heavenly father has tailored each of us for particular gifts to be manifested. The apostle Paul said that each of us has unique and peculiar gifts. You don't hunger or desire something that doesn't exist. This is one of the purposes of prophecy and dreams; they give us a picture, a snapshot, just a brief glimpse of what God has planned for us. That brief glimpse stirs a hunger that propels us forward yesterday. The Scriptures tell us that if we hunger and thirst after righteousness, we shall be filled.

Where does faith come from? Well, it comes from reading the Bible, doesn't it? After all, the scriptures tell us that faith cometh by hearing the word of God. Isn't that the Bible? So do you agree then that the Bible is most often referred to as the word of God? But is that what scripture is referring to when it says that we would receive faith by hearing the word of God? I really don't think that's a complete picture. For instance, how many so-called religious Study experts in our universities read the Bible to their students every day and yet have not received one ounce of faith. That would tell me that the ink and the paper and the leather binding around it are not necessarily in God's word. That book you hold in your hand is undoubtedly a vehicle for the word of God, but it's still dead letters without the life of God breathing into it. The Scriptures tell us that if you're going to come to God, you can only do it through faith. So before you break that book open that we called the Bible, you must do it with faith in God. And when you do, something supernatural happens, and that paper and ink turn into a channel for God's voice to be heard in your spirit. When that happens, Romans 10:17 comes alive because now you're hearing from the lips of Jesus himself, and faith Springs into your spirit. This is not an anti-Bible message; this is a warning to you not to read it like a novel but let the holy spirit speak life into you when you read it and hear it by faith.

The power of give-and-take. Give it away, and it will come back to you with babies. So do you want some friends, do you? Well, according to proverbs 18:24, you need to sow friendship, and friends will come to you when you do. Sound weird? Yeah, well, that's because God's kingdom works altogether different from man's ideas and man's ways. For instance, according to Manage ideas, if you're good-looking or have a lot of money, you will have friends. Then, of course, there's the power play. Give someone a lot of power, and people gather around them like bees to honey. The sad part is somewhere along the line; they realize they are loved and adored only for their money. So what you give, you'll get back. Do you want kindness? Plant some seeds of kindness and watch them grow into a harvest. Do you want people to forgive you when you have a problem or a failure? Begin to exercise your ability to forgive others, and watch it come back to you when you need it. Be very careful about criticizing someone for things that they do that you disagree with. You need to give it to the hands of the Lord and let him deal with it and keep your heart clean. Then when you walk through your periods of missteps, criticism will not come to take you out. The power of give-and-take. Give it away, and it will come back to you with babies.

It's the right time to boost a little more and do some bragging about the kingdom of God and Jesus our Savior. Faults humility is a crippling deception that comes in the guise of purity and religious piety. Because of this insidious theology that has been pumped into our history as a church, we often come across as bakers and slaves instead of sons of the most high God. Actually, it's just where Satan wants us to live. She knows as long as we see ourselves as nothing, he can do what he wants without hindrance. In the last half-century, the revelation of Christ in you, the hope of glory, and who you are in Christ begin to move among the body and change many of us from slaves to sons. The result of the revelation of our righteousness is in Christ, put shock waves through the body of Christ that is still being felt around the world. Men like FF Bosworth with his teaching on healing and the Christ-life. EW Kenyon opened up the Pauline revelation until we begin to see ourselves as righteous and images of Christ on earth. Kenneth Hagan told us we could have what we say and that confession is integral to our overcoming lifestyle. Kenneth Copeland brought the bondage of poverty by reminding us again and again that God loves to prosper and bless his sons and daughters. The women also held their heads high and brought us a slice of heaven that we needed to change our destiny as a body of believers. Marie Woodward Etter broke open the 20th century with divine healing to a level we had not known before. Amy simple McPherson carried it on, followed by Katherine Kuhlman and dozens of others that boasted in the Lord and changed the lives of millions.

YOU ARE THERE. If you're old enough, you'll remember a television program by that name. It was in the early days of television when they were learning how to capture unusual places and events. Each week they would take you into the depths of a coal mine or the heights of a mountain climb. The audience would sit spellbound with all their emotions and sensory skills, captivated by what they saw. When it was all over, they could talk about it as one who had been there. Nowadays, we go to the theater or sit in front of our 72-inch television screen, where every ounce of our imagination is captured by the drama and action of what is before our eyes. As far as we're concerned, we are the race car driver, the skydiver, the hero that wins the battle because we are there. Why is it so difficult to talk to Christians about stepping into the spiritual world and receiving what it would offer to our emotions, spirit, and revelation of Christ? Come with me today. Let's step into a doorway called "the Scriptures." Let's allow our faith to attach to our imagination and see what God would give us as we meditate upon the good word of God.

God is a rewarder; he can't help but give back. If we can get that into our spirits and understand it to be an unmovable truth, it would rearrange much of our theology that we know and believe about our father, God. The very essence of his nature is to give. The Scriptures tell us that he is a rewarder to those who diligently seek him. John 316 is one of the first scriptures that we memorize, and it tells us that he is a giver. As a matter of fact, you are so valuable to him that he gave his most precious prize to redeem you out of prison. Then when we begin to comprehend Luke 12:32, the case against a stingy and selfish God crumbles into dust because that scripture tells us that it is the father's good pleasure to give. I suppose Luke 638 would be the central focus on the subject of God's return. Give, and it shall be given to you press down, shaken together and running over. It goes forward that the same measure that you measure out will be measured back to you again. So check this off of your worry list. God, your father, is gone out give you no matter how you try.

“Well after all folks God's in control.”
You've said it and I've said it it's a common phrase used in the body of believers around the world. But is He? Is god really in control of all this chaos and crime that's going on in the nations of the world today?
I don't think so.
This statement we make about God being in control is probably one of the greatest weapons that the atheist has against the Christian message. They say if God's in control why are babies dying and floods wiping out whole cities?
Somehow we Christians just say well he knows best and leave it at that. But that doesn't answer the question nor does it answer the confusion in the young believers heart.
Is God really in control? No He is not. You and me as believers are you control, because He has left it in our hands to subdue multiply dominate and rule the history that we live in.
Now if you say that God is in charge then I will agree with you because he is.
When the Scriptures tell us that in him we live and move and have our being this telling us that God is in charge of everything that we do.
Because he is in charge he has made a decision to give us self will which means we can make decisions good or bad.
Scriptures tell us that before us is life or death then he tells us to choose life.
If God was in control he would force us to take life but because he's in charge he has the authority to give us the ability and the opportunity to choose life.
And so it goes my friend we can't slack off and expect God to do all the heavy lifting what he has given us commission over this world to rule it and dominated by his authority and power.
So buckle up and launch into the glorious opportunities we have to shape history and give God glory.

Because we live in a world of such uncertainties, we find ourselves clinging to our faith in God's faithfulness and love. Because of our faith in God, our lives are much different from those who have no faith or trust in his provision. It's called the security of the believer. However, with our faith in God being challenged, we can become confused and discouraged, wondering if what we believe is even true. This is called a "crisis of faith." I received Jesus Christ as my savior as a child and have walked in that faith for seven decades. I have never had a "crisis of faith" concerning who Jesus is or even that the father loves me in all that time. I have never doubted that I will go to heaven when I die, or I have never doubted that my sins were all forgiven. Yet I discovered another area of the crises of faith that had to do with nearly the same importance as salvation itself. That crisis of faith has to do with growth, revelation advancement, and spiritual development into God's things for us. Any sailor can stand on the shore while the ship goes to sea and still claim they are in the Navy. Yet it is the sailor that goes on the ship to the far sides of the oceans and experiences the storms and the battles that come back with an understanding that the one that stayed on the shore will never have. This type of crisis of faith will keep you from understanding the life of prophecy, divine healing, the angels of the Lord, the supernatural mystic side of the gospel, etc. Remember that sin is missing the mark. If you don't believe it's possible for you to hear from God and that he would speak to you personally, you are missing the mark. It's time to repent, change your way of thinking, and believe that all things are possible.

I heard Rex Humbard say this in a sermon, and it's stuck with me. "you can't drive a car with your eyes on the rearview mirror." Think about the power of that statement concerning your journey in life and your spiritual growth. If we continue to keep our eyes on what we have done in the past, both good and evil, we will never accomplish what God has for us in the future. The children of Israel are an example of this when they met with their first opposition. Because they still had their eyes on the pass, they wanted to go back to it. YouTube back to bondage. There is something about the past that brings a false sense of security. It must be that we are so familiar with it that we feel at home and in some way relate that to peace. I acknowledge that the past has importance because that is the foundation that we build from. However, as a good house contractor knows, once you make a foundation, you bury it, and from it, the house's structure arises. In most cases, the foundation is never seen again. But you know it's there because the home stays secure and solid. In Hebrews 12:2, it tells us that Jesus had his eyes on the work and power of the cross; that's the way he went through the pain and shame of it. It's no wonder that the scripture tells us to look onto Jesus, the author, and finisher of our faith. Keep the faith, friends.

Rules? Who needs them? Well, truth be told, without rules, life would be impossible. But how can that be preacher? I don't want anybody to tell me what to do. I'm a free agent? Here's a question for you. How would you like to take away the rules that govern the universe, including the sun coming up tomorrow morning? That's a silly question; there's nothing to do with my independent life. Yes, it does because everything is tied together with the same rule that governs the sun and regulates the seed that will produce your next meal. Have you ever heard anybody say, "if you don't work, you don't eat?" That's a rule that has worked in all of history. That's why the farmer gets up early every morning to plow the ground and plant the seed. That's why the carpenter put his tool bag on to build another house so he could feed his children. That's why the mother gets up early to prepare breakfast and send her children to school so they will prosper in life also. You do away with rules, and your life has no Rudder to guide you to the target that you have in mind. When Jesus said if you kept his commandments, you would prosper and be a success, he was talking about obeying the rules of life that have been set out ahead of you. The number one rule for you to have a long life is to obey and honor your mother and father. No, that's a rule we can live with.

Faith is a muscle. Now, that's a strange statement and an odd way to look at the subject of believing in God. There are many things to know about faith that are important. First of all, faith is the key ingredient to having any interaction with God. The Scriptures tell us that "without faith, it is impossible to please God for he that comes to God must believe that He is and that He is the rewarder of those who diligently seek Him." We also learn by reading the scriptures that there is weak faith, little faith, no faith, and great faith. So if that is true, how do we grow or enlarge the faith that we do have? First of all, according to Romans 10: 9 and 10, faith comes from hearing the word of God. By this scripture, we know that we need to take in God's word by reading and listening, and meditating upon it day and night. Secondly, first Timothy 4:8 tells us that we need to exercise unto godliness. Then in first Timothy 3:16, we see there is such a thing as the mystery of godliness. So here we go. God gives to every man or woman the measure of faith. That faith he has given needs to be exercised or practiced until it becomes a muscle that can have a great face and do exploits. To arrive at great faith, God knows we need a challenge, so he gives us a mystery to search out and discover its deep meaning. As we do that, our faith grows because faith is a muscle. And every muscle needs exercise to be healthy. YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html

Jesus declared in John 10:10 that the thief comes to steal and destroy. Of course, we know that to be Satan, the wicked one. Jesus says, but I have come that you might have life and have that life more abundantly. When God created the cosmos and the universe we live in, he established principles with which it would function. Those principles and rules never change; that's why the sun comes up in the morning and sits in the evening. Every law of life that God established is still in effect. He said that there would be seedtime and harvest as long as the earth remains. That's a long life you can never change in Congress or in a society that is in rebellion against God. You can call an apple an orange all day long, and at the end of the day, because of God's law, it is still an Apple. God's original plan to restore everything to his intended purpose will never be altered. From Adam to the last prophet in the Old Testament who spoke of God's promises of restoration, nothing changed God's mind, and he intended to restore all things. Then Jesus came. When the world encountered Jesus from the cradle to the cross to the tomb and resurrection, they came face-to-face with God's plan to restore all things. In my journey with the father, I have learned that what I know and experience does not encompass the magnificent horizon of God's purpose and plan that lay ahead of us. So open up your eyes and your faith and receive restoration in your world today. YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html

The power of one versus the power of many. The force multiplication factor is in effect. When the Scriptures tell us that hidden within the word of God is everything we need for life and eternity, we can't imagine how big this statement is. The simple teaching that if two shall agree as touching anything Jesus said he would do it for you. Where is a force multiplier? A force multiplier is a factor that gives military assets the ability to accomplish more extraordinary feats than without it. Jesus stated it this way, "without me; you can do nothing." It doesn't get any clearer than that life without God in the midst of it is a life that is wasted. If you think that's an exaggeration, take a survey of men and women throughout history who've given themselves to other gods versus those who serve and live for the one faithful God, Jesus Christ. If you find honest historians, it will be a clear example of what life is when you have the force multiplier of the spiritual world that connects you to Jesus and the father through the power of the Holy Ghost. That scriptural statement says, "But you can do all things with me." How can that be, you ask? Good! You're on the right track. You're asking.

It's adjustment time for you and me, the believers in Christ Jesus. And that adjustment that we must take seems to be a daily exercise according to scripture. Even though we get saved one time which we refer to as the born-again experience. The act of faith and obedience that we performed at our original salvation is the same action we take daily to stay on track and target. When Paul referred to the fact that he died daily, he wasn't referring to physical suffering as much as a submission to God's rule in his life. If you're giving notice to the actions that are going on in the world around us, you are tempted to be weak in your knees and wonder if there's any hope for the future. We ask why doesn't God deal with this wickedness. We have often joked that I would deal with it if I were God for a day. And everyone goes back, thank God you're not God. ( amen to that) In psalms 73, the writer tells us that he was starting to stumble because of the prosperity of the wicked. It wasn't until he turned into the sanctuary and became adjusted once again to God's word and the fact that God would win in the end. Then he was strengthened and could continue to walk according to principle and purpose. So adjust yourself, bring yourself back on balance, turn yourself into the sanctuary of God's presence and his word and watch your life strengthen again.

Consider the miracle of sight and all of the wonders that it affords us to behold. The gift of sight that our father God has given us is certainly at the top of the list for the most important one. Yet because of our foolish lifestyle at times and ignorance of what can harm our site, we can lose that precious gift. In the book of Matthew, the sixth chapter relates with Jesus' teachers about the eye how it allows light to come into the whole body. Just think about the eye that is the window to the soul. Is it any wonder that the enemy of our life has perverted our eyes in this society to take in so much evil and bondage. A little song from my childhood in church said it this way. "Oh, be careful little eyes; what you see for the father up above is looking down in love, so be careful little eyes what you see." God has given you two eyes to look with, but they must work together as a team for them to function correctly. If one eye decides to do its own thing, it throws the whole body into confusion. So it is in the body of Christ and the relationships that we have in life. When we walk together in unity of spirit and purpose, so much can get done that would be impossible before. The story out of the Old Testament about the tower of babel when God confused their language so they couldn't accomplish what they had in mind to build. God said if I had left them alone, they could've accomplished anything they put their mind to. Think about it.

Why is it when a wealthy man dies, especially if they're young, people tend to say how sad look what he lost? Or how about the young starlet ascending the charts of popularity suddenly has an accident and loses everything. We think to ourselves, what a shame they had so much to live for. When a young mother and father have their first child, they have sex dreams and aspirations for that child. No sacrifice is too much so that they might give advantage to their unique child so that they may succeed. Then we have special schools like Julie art in New York City that only receive those special children with exceptional talents. After all, they say it would be a shame to waste such great talent. Have you ever considered your heavenly father as he watches our lives, knowing that we have great potential and yet seeing us fall so short of the mark? Our father God has put within us the ability to do precisely what he has the ability to do on this earth because of Jesus. When it comes right down to the bare facts, sin is simply missing the mark and the potential that God had in store for you. But preacher, is there any hope for me? How can I possibly do what God wants me to do and be? In reality, we have an effortless life as a Christian. We believe we love, and we let him lead. When we do, we will get our dance partner back again and be in step to fulfill our destiny. YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html

To understand the power and scope of the gospel is to understand the heart and the love of our father, God. As in any relationship, time and experience are part of the tools you need to discover the depth of that experience. The apostle Paul said this: "when I was a child, I speak as a child, but when I need you, I put away childish things." Think for a moment about your salvation when you first experienced it. You knew that Jesus loves you, your sins were forgiven, and someday you would go to heaven. Now years later, and I multiplied layer of experiences you've had with God the Father, your understanding of the heavenly things has exploded. Now get ready for a greater expansion yet in the knowledge that God is downloading into the body of Christ, which you are a vital part of. Paul told us in the Scriptures that the revelation of Jesus Christ and his kingdom would be exceedingly abundantly beyond what we could ask or think. So let me tell you where faith begins. Faith begins when you have exhausted your imagination and stepped into the mysteries that have yet to be revealed. Think about it.

Several years ago, I found a unique tool in the hock shop, and I bought it for five dollars. It is the coolest little tool to plant tulip bulbs with. I love tulips, so I brought it home with much excitement to show Arlis. However, time slipped by, and I hung my little tool next to the other tools in my shop. Every summer that went by, I stood on my front porch, looked at my front yard, and said we got to plant some tulips. But the little tool still hung on its hook in the shop. This year it finally happened. My daughter Tiffany bought us a beautiful container of tulips. Inspired by her generous gift, I got my tool out and started using it. It was amazing how simple and easy this tool was to use. In a short amount of time, I had all the tulip bulbs in the ground arranged so that when they came up, I could see them from my front porch. No, let me ask you a question. What kind of lovely flowers am I going to see next season? Why tulips, of course. And you're already ahead of me because you know that God promised that everything would come after its kind. Give, and it shall be given unto you press down shaken together and running over will men give back to your bosom for with the same measure you measure out that she'll be measured back to you again. Everything after its own kind.

Have you ever heard the term "people vote with their feet?" Or how about the other one, "action is stronger than words?" Hey, here's another good one. "Put your money where your mouth is." Well, all of that to say that many Christians are talking about fellowship with the father in prayer, but it seems like a lot of talk but no action. I've often thought that if someone sent me a note and said there's $1 million waiting for you at the bank, all you have to do is get off the couch and get it; I think I would do it. Why would I? Because I was motivated enough with the desire to break out of my form and get uncomfortable because I saw an opportunity to get something that I highly valued. If faith, desire, and hunger are working in our hearts, we will break the habits we have formed to be in his presence. We have been invited into the holy of holy's to fellowship with the god of all creation, the Lord of a host. He has made us able by the new creation that we can have a face-to-face relationship with him. How about if you're ready to go in with me.

Why do the birds sing on a gray, cold day? Because no one or anything can hold back the pressure of praise that comes out of the God-created universe. The reservoir of glory placed into the creation hast to have an escape, and the vehicle used is praise to the most high God. Much of the Christian church has dumbed down praise and shaped it to fit into a convenient timeframe for our church services. The small amount of glory expressed through the general singing and music time is just a dribble of what is coming out of God's creation. In the book of Luke, when Jesus descended into the crowd, they began to worship and say glory to God in the highest. When the Pharisees criticized them, Jesus said if you stop those worshiping, worship will come out of the stones lying around on the ground. Everything that God has created has his DNA impressed; whether it be the human, the animal, or the stone, it's all God. God intended for humankind to release that worship into the atmosphere and fill the earth with his glory. Because the children he has created have not fulfilled that task, the birds sing to him on a cold gray day because they release the glory that God put in them.

Faith comes by hearing. OK, what exactly are we looking for that will build our faith when we hear it. I know the scripture says that we should hear the word of God. My question to you is that just the Bible or is there more of the word of God outside of the Bible also? Whoa, hold everything there, a preacher. Are you telling me God speaks to people outside of the Bible? As a matter of fact, I am. Didn't Paul tell us that even nature speaks to us of God? OK, OK, I get it. I see it now that there are things outside of the Bible that speak to us, and when they do, our faith increases. Take, for instance, a testimony of victory given to you by someone you know. What does that do for your faith? It also increases your ability to believe that God would do it for you. Look at the custom of the early Israelites as they marked the spot a battle was won by stacking a pile of stones there to remind everyone of the victory. So that when they walk by with their children, they would repeat the story of the triumph, therefore, building faith in the heart of the next generation. As I sit down to speak to you today, the spirit of the Lord said, "shake it up, baby." When I heard those words, my faith leaped forward, knowing that he was telling me that he could change our circumstances wholly and suddenly. So rejoice as we enter these days, knowing that God has a plan that will not fail.

"Why is there air?" If you're old enough, you would remember that a famous comedian made a lot of money off of that comic line. The crowd would roar with laughter, yet each of those laughing was asking some of the same questions about their life and its purpose. Unless a person understands their purpose in life, they will most likely flounder and allow a sense of failure to follow them. Years ago, a well-known pastor wrote two books; one of them was a purpose-driven life the second was a purpose-driven church. Needless to say, he's sold a lot of books, and I even bought one for the church. I was curious to see if I was purpose-driven as a pastor. I discovered that his purpose was different from mine because I had a particular call that God had given me. I found that we were purpose-driven yet with individual targets in our lives and ministry. So to answer the question, why is there air. Let me see it simply God has given us air so that we may fulfill His will while we are here on this earth. The goal for all of us is that someday he will say to us well done, done good and faithful servant, enter into the joys of your Lord.

The power of focus. What a wonderful gift that God has given to us that we may succeed in our mission in life. Yet many miss the target because they feel to use the gift of focus. The story is told of a seafaring man who found himself in the middle of the ocean after his boat had sunk. Somehow through a miracle, he swam all night until he was rescued. Those that rescued him were amazed that he could swim so long; they asked him how he did it. He told them that he saw a picture of his mother out ahead of him, bidding him continue, and he did. He had focused on one goal: if I could swim to my mother, I would be safe. Take the illustration of Peter in the boat with the other disciples when Jesus invited him to come. As long as he was focused on Jesus, he was walking on water. However, when his focused changed to storm again, he sank beneath the waves. No wonder the Scriptures tell us to keep our eyes on Jesus and meditate upon the word day and night. Keep focused dear friends; we have a job to complete.

BOOM! BOOM! And everyone looked to the sky to find the jet airplane that had just broken the sound barrier. It gets everyone's attention because they know something big is happening in the atmosphere above them. The world around us is filled with so much noise and clutter that we can hardly pay attention to anything else. We call it white noise, noise that we don't listen to; it's just they're filling all the decibels in our hearing range. However, another sound barrier gets everyone's attention; it's when God speaks to a generation, and he generally does it suddenly. When the disciples were together in the upper room in the second chapter of Acts, it tells us that suddenly they heard a great sound. It was like a great wind, and it filled the whole room. I tell you this; God is ready to give us a 'suddenly' experience. And I believe it will fill the whole room and soak up all the white noise the world has been making around us. When Heaven's voice speaks, there is always a massive change in the world's direction, and you and I have been going. When the disciples experienced this voice from Heaven, their lives were changed forever, and they were endued with power from on high. Can you hear it?

How much are you worth? Well, put it this way God found his most valuable treasure in all of heaven and repurchased you with it. That should tell us how much he values us and loves us. They tell me that they don't value it if someone doesn't pay for something. Didn't David say that he wouldn't give God something that didn't cost him something to offer? Out of the rich treasures of God's glory comes our redemption in our future in eternal heaven. But hold up a minute. We don't wait till we get to heaven to enjoy that treasure. The Scriptures tell us that he has given us all things to enjoy, and he would do it on this side of the veil. Don't let death be your savior, healer, and comfort. We don't have to die to receive the benefits of the cross and resurrection. So rejoice today, my friends you have a key to the treasure house of heaven.

Two verses in the scriptures have anchored me since I was a young man. Both separately and together, they speak of God's plan for his love child, you and I. The straightforward command and description that God and Jesus give to us are beyond question. The father intended for us to live boldly with a spirit that overcomes all opposition and one that changes the course of history. Originally he placed us on this globe to subdue it. When Jesus re-instituted the commandment, he told us to go out and do it again with spiritual ramifications beyond our imagination. Genesis 126 and 27 give us God's direction for us as his creation. Luke 1615 renews that command and gives details on how to look when we fulfill that direction. Let's remember today, with the storms blowing in and the pressures of the society around us, that we were created to rule and change the outcome of the history we live in. Be bold, for your God is with you.

How many times do I stir the soup, mother? Keep stirring it, son, until it's done. If that sounded familiar to you, you have worked in the kitchen and know how food is prepared. So it is in the kingdom of God we continue to stir up our faith until the job is complete. Each time we take a new step forward, our faith is initiated and stirred to a new level. However, when we draw back in fear or doubt, it affects us in more ways than we understand. This is why the apostle Paul told Timothy to stir up his faith and stir up the gifts delivered to him through the laying on of hands. Take time today to go into your special glory spot and meditate upon the good things of the Lord and as you do, stir your faith up for the next step ahead of you is amazing.

How much will you pay for increase?
Ask the farmer who is going to plant 40 acres of corn what his investment will be to receive his harvest. If he's been in the business for more than a few years and succeeded, he knows exactly what the price will be to put seed in that 40 acres.
The proverbs of Solomon tell us that a wise builder considers the cost before he starts his project. If he doesn't do it, he will certainly fail.
There is a price to pay. Do you know the secrets of heaven and the purposes of God in your life. We know that salvation is free because Jesus paid the price for that.
Like the preacher said, salvation is free, but we pay for the freight.
To the world religion, the price to pay is physical pain, suffering etc. They will carry across for miles while whipping themselves, trying to earn an entrance into God's presence.
Because Christ has paid for that and has invited us in, the only price we pay is obedience. That obedience is believing.
We believe, therefore we are. Isn't that wild?

Are you afraid of the word meditation? If you are, don't be. The art and the act of meditation are as old as mankind. It has been used throughout the Testaments to bring a person to greater understanding or a sense of greater peace. Yes, I said the art of meditation. It's an art because it can be learned, and the more you practice, the better you get, just like a skilled artist that paints portraits. Or the one that can make the piano sing until huge audiences applaud. Unlike those mentioned above, the art of meditation is something you do alone with no one looking or applauding. David was huge on meditation, and he said in Psalms 63 and six I remember the on my bed and meditate on the in the night. In Hebrew, the word meditate means to lay across your bed like a bedspread. Get the point, relax and enjoy the presence of the Lord. No wonder the Scriptures tell us to have no anxieties, no worries, or any such thing. I am inviting you to learn the art and practice meditating upon the Lord day and night and let his word be your safeguard and guide.

Come into my heart Lord Jesus,
Come in today, come in I pray,
Come into my heart Lord Jesus
If you were raised in the same Sunday school I was probably saying that song several times a month as you were being raised up in the house of God.
Oh what a glorious thing it is to invite Jesus into our life. We invite him into our heart which means every part of our life Jesus is a part of. The wonder and marvelous experience of being born again or as we often terminate saved is beyond description.
However there is one key element that makes it all work and without it it doesn't work at all.
That key element simply is, “Believe faith.”
The scripture tells us that “without faith it is impossible to please god for heat it comes to God must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him.”
So the key to everything is faith. No hold on here's the big news.
Everything that you will ever do that has to do with God stuff in your life in it has to do with faith. Believe faith, is always the key to everything.

Good vibrations, Heavens vibrations. It is reported that our body maintains its life and health by vibrations in every part. Each part of our body has a different rate of vibration tuned by our heavenly father so that it would function perfectly. The entirety of who we are, body, soul, and spirit, depends on the consistent vibration that heaven-sent is out. With any member of our body, soul, or spirit getting out of harmony with the vibrations that God is sending, we become depressed or sick in our bodies. The basic meaning for sin is simply out of sync or in step with God. In other words, your spirit man is not grooving with God's vibrations. In the 1960s, they had a hit song called "good vibrations." If you turned up the volume loud enough, your whole body got involved in the sound waves that came out of the song and the music, and when you left, you were feeling its results. The vibrations of heaven originate from the word of God coming from the mouth of our father. When those words are received into our body, soul, and spirit, it retunes us and readjusts us to the will and destiny that God has for us. When you and I repeat the word of God by confessing and rejoicing in it, our whole person is readjusted to his plan. So turn up the volume and let those good vibrations work on you.

So you want to know a mystery. How about eight mysteries right out of the Bible. The word mystic is a stranger to the modern church, yet the church is full of mystic everywhere you look. How do I know that? Because I am one, and so are you. A mystic is someone who is searching out mysteries. A mystic is someone who believes in the supernatural. A mystic is someone who speaks to a God you can't see but believe is real and alive. To the person on the outside of the kingdom of God, they see nothing but mysteries. Because it takes the Holy Spirit to bring revelation and understanding to God's word and his ways. The apostle Paul explains this as he talks about the unfolding mystery of Christ. There are at least eight mysteries that the kingdom of God and Christianity is founded on. The apostle Paul said that God showed him the mystery of Christ through a personal revelation. Would you say that understanding these ministries would be of primary importance to us? I would, and I do.

Night visions. What are they, and who can have them? According to the Scriptures, night visions are what we would call dreams. Job says in the fourth chapter that when deep sleep falls upon men, they have night vision. And in those visions, God speaks to them and gives them direction. When we consider all of the dreams in the testaments that God used to guide his people to warn and reveal the coming days. With that much evidence, how come the church is so reluctant to discuss and accept that dreams and night visions are a vital part of the regulatory system that God has for this day. If you receive it, your dream life will become active, and in it, God will speak and give direction and revelation in the days to come. Just think about it being put to sleep so that God could form evil out of his side. Why was that? Because Adam would've got in the way if you had been awake. So it is with you and me that we have more resistance against what God may want to speak to us about. So he comes in the night when we're asleep and speaks of heavenly things. Isn't it wonderful?

Our spiritual five senses or like a muscle they need to be exercised to grow stronger. Each time we respond to the voice of the lord and his commands or direction our sensitivity increases. Unfortunately most of us are waiting for the really big spiritual revelation before we respond. Some say Lord write it on the wall with your finger then I'll be able to see it. Others may say if you show up in my bedroom and stand at the end of my bed in full color then I'll be able to believe. Well that's just not the way it works. For most of us anyway. Do you remember the prophet in the Old Testament that thought God was in the lightning in the thunder but his voice ended up in a whisper. What would you do it be sensitive to the small things if you will do that God will bring those bigger experiences that you have been waiting for. Most of them are very important communication that you have with an intimate friend or partner comes in the whisper not in the shout. Listen I hear God speaking.

Would you be surprised if I told you that the church has a concept about God that is not exactly complete? If you've been a Christian very long, you've already learned that principle of theology that there's much more to learn than we know today.
One thing the church is taught that needs some improvement is the idea that God needs nothing; he's complete in himself. But with a closer examination of scripture, we realize that God does need things outside of himself.
For instance, he needed a family, so he created man and woman in the human race.
It also seems that he has a pleasure need because somehow, we give him pleasure when he gives us the kingdom. LK 12:32
This understanding of our father doesn't take away from his supreme rulership in the cosmos and that he is Lord of all. It might show us if we understand this because we are so loved by our father, who created us, that he went to the extreme to redeem us by giving his only begotten son as ransom.
God, our father, did not do that out of a rulebook or as a robot; he did it out of compassion and love for the people that he created in his image.
Think about it.

When the subject of God's communication to his children comes up most of them say that he never talks to me or gives me a message. Even though the apostle Paul tells us that no one is without excuse because even nature speaks to us.
So how do we communicate to the body of Christ Christian brothers and sisters that God is speaking to them in many different ways including the nature around them.
Take for instance the “suddenly’s" that happen in life.
A chance meeting. A wrong turn all the way to the store that brings you face-to-face with an old friend that you haven't seen in years. A wrong number on your phone that turns out to be someone that needs prayer.
All of these things that happen suddenly have a message with them. God is trying to get your attention so that you can be his voice and his hands in someone's life.
You have prayed and said oh God help me to be a blessing to someone. Then horror of horrors you get a traffic ticket and God gives you the opportunity to be a Christian witness to an officer that needs to meet someone to pick his spirits up.
So pay attention today everything that happens to you as a message with it.

Procrastination is just another form of fear. When you hesitate or put off a project, something is working below the surface that is not made up of faith. When faith is involved in what you do, you face it boldly and run toward it. There are times when we have a project to do that we need understanding and revelation; we may wait a season before we get involved in the project. When faith comes out of your spirit, it has a different sense, and you boldly go forward. However, if you face your giant with your mind instead of your spirit, you hesitate or put it off for another day. David ran toward his giant because he knew his God was faithful, and his courage and boldness came out of his spirit and not his head. David did not kill goliath for the king's money or his daughter; he took him out for his God. Next time you face your giant, consider where your motivation comes from. It will produce faith and boldness if it comes out of your spirit. If it comes out of your flesh or your mind, you will hesitate and question whether you can succeed. Remember, a double-minded man is unsteady in all of his ways.

"Down from his glory, ever living story, my God and Savior came, and Jesus was his name." That's the church song that dropped in my spirit as I began to meditate on Friday morning. Another song says it's an old story, but it never gets old; it's always new. The powerful truths that is revealed in Jesus Christ are far beyond our imagination or anything we could conceive in our mind. It has to be a revelation from the Holy Spirit. You cannot come to God unless the Holy Spirit draws you. You cannot learn about God through your mind by studying books in history. Jesus and his glory must come by revelation, and that is a gift that our father gives us. So enjoy this Friday and revel in the glory that God has brought to you today.

When was the last time you were breathless over an experience you encountered? No, I'm not referring to an experience of fear; I want you to bring to mind an experience with God and his kingdom. We can manufacture a breathless experience by going to the theme park and riding on a scary ride. We catch our breath and scream as we go down so fast that our teeth rattle. What is that? Why do we do that? I'll tell you why because God has built within us the desire to be overwhelmed with God stuff that this human body seems to lose its breath from the excitement and pleasure. This is what every mountain climber is searching for. This is why people jump out of a perfectly good airplane and plummet to the ground with a little teeny parachute. Racecar drivers and those who jump horses over hedges all are looking for that breathless experience that we can only get from God when we are in his presence. Should I invite you to be in the room when the air is sucked out of it and you, become breathless because God showed up and brought his team with Him.
There was a teenage joke we love to pull on people that brings me to a serious point I want to make today about life. In those days of endless summers, when one of our friends was walking away from us and just about to go around the corner, we would yell at them to come back. When they turned around and walked all the way back, we would say to them, "how far would you have been if you hadn't turned around"? We always thought it was funny. Yesterday the Holy Spirit was talking to me about something in my life that would have altered most of what I enjoy today if I had turned around and gone back. The enemy of our soul doesn't have to kill us to stop our purposes in life, and all he has to do is distract us and get us on the wrong pathway that leads to nowhere. The "if onlys" in life Will short-circuit your forward progress and cause you to miss the target if you dwell on them. For a good personal lesson, just think about some of the dumb things you almost did as a young person that would've been a disaster in your life. Whoops, don't dwell on that; this is just a lesson to be learned. Thank God today with me that psalms 91 is a reality in our lives. He leads us, and he feeds us all the days of our life.

When does faith turn into knowing? The life that we live as Christians is a spiritual life because it's living in another world. That world that we call the kingdom of God has laws and rules that do not match up with the physical world that we walk in. That's where our conflict comes in and tries to throw us off of our faith. The apostle Paul is one of our Christian heroes in mentors. Because he was the author of 13 of the New Testament books, he becomes someone to pattern and draw from. He declared that he came to a place where he knew it was true. Now, is there a difference between having faith and knowing? Paul states in second Timothy 1:12 that he said, "I know in whom I have believed in and persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed under him against that day." Somewhere in our walk with the Lord, faith turns into knowing. It's somewhat like Velcro; it just will never let go again. Paul uses the words persuaded and convinced, and committed. Think about your walk in the spirit today and ask yourself the question am I living by faith, or do I know without question that he will never let me out of his hand?

Faith comes by hearing, and so does doubt. Here's a good question to ponder as we start our week. Who do you listen to the most, and where does your daily input of information about the world around you come from. OK, we can cut out the news media. We've stopped listening to our gossiping friends and neighbors. And we don't buy gossip magazines at the newsstand in the supermarket anymore. That's a good start, but that's the small end of the stick. When it comes to inputting the information into your world, you're missing the heavy end of the stick, the main source of your information. Your mind. It's what you think in your mind that sets the course of your world and your future. The Scriptures tell us that as a man thinketh in his own heart, so is he. The heart, the core of our very spirit man, is set by how you think, and you think by what you hear. The Scriptures tell us that we're to have the mind of Christ. Listen as we hear what's in his mind in the Scriptures. "Beloved, I wish above all things that they made prosper and be in health" "It is the father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom." It" s in the mind of the Father to do good to you every day in every way.

The gun goes off and 12 huge horses lunge forward into the race of their life. The crowd stands in nervous anticipation cheering their favorite steed as it turns the last corner for the homestretch. When suddenly out of nowhere comes an underdog no one thought had a chance. The jockey encourages his steed forward until he has nose to nose with last year's champion.
Just ahead is the finish line if you can make it it will change their world forever. Time stands still the crowd is silent and at the last moment the underdog pushes his nose across the wire and wins the prize.
Well sound familiar sounds like life to me. The opportunities we have to succeed really have everything to do with our focus and faithfulness.
Get out of bed late come to work looking like you've been sleeping in your clothes guess who doesn't get promoted.
Why do we think it's any different in the world of God's spiritual greatness. He expects the same from you and I he calls it faithfulness.
For he said to as many as endure the same shall be saved.
It's Friday folks and the finish line is right ahead of us. Press on!

When was the last time you prayed for someone who had unbelief? I know that's a strange thing to say in a church full of believing people. However, there are times in our faith journey that unbelief becomes a challenge against our faith, and we need prayer.
This father in Mark 924 that brought his son to Jesus was dealing with both faith and unbelief.
Isn't it interesting that Jesus didn't rebuke his unbelief like he did so many times with the religious crowd that was always hanging around? Could it be that honesty with God gets you a long way down the road to victory.
Here's another example of faith and unbelief happening to us at the same time. Many of us had experienced it on our journey with the Lord. We have believed in salvation baptism in the Holy Spirit, divine healing prophecy etc.
Now that takes faith, doesn't it?
However, push is just a little bit further in the revelation of God and Bamo we run into unbelief.
So that's where we need prayer for unbelief that we might press on into the next realm that God has for us. YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html

Wisdom. Who has it, who doesn't have it.? We've all heard of the wise old man. So that suggests that getting older, you get wiser. If that were true, we would have a fair amount of ways people that were seniors. Unfortunately, that also is not the key to wisdom.
Now we know that wisdom comes from the Lord. And there is such a thing in the book of proverbs as a wise answer. So what is wisdom, or should I say who is wisdom?
According to the eighth chapter of Proverbs, wisdom is referred to in the feminine, and she has built her house. The scriptures also tell us that wisdom was the first spirit that God created because wisdom was there to help him create the cosmos.
Here's the excellent news perhaps even shocking news. It is that you can become acquainted with the spirit of wisdom, and she will download things into you from the kingdom of God, the spiritual world where God lives.
So there you go, one more important player in the great scheme that God has arranged for us to be a part of the spirit of wisdom.

Let me ask you a couple of questions today; let it be a good subject for you to research and answer some of your mysteries about prayer.
How long does prayer that is given in faith last?
Are those interceding before God on earth praying only for what is ahead of them, or could they be praying for what is behind them? Remember now these are questions you need to search out for yourself. Paul told Young Timothy to study the word of God that he might be a worthy workman.
Here's a little tip for your studies: God has collected the prayers of the saints and put them in Viles. According to Revelation 8:2, the angels pour those prayers out, and they become a sweet-smelling aroma before the throne of God.
Just think about it. Your prayers are bottled up sitting on God's desk, ready to be poured out in whatsoever direction he desires.
Isn't that something?

This whole business about judgment and judging is confusing and can be a little scary. Why is that? Well, it could be that most of us walk around with a certain amount of guilt, hoping no one finds out about the secrets we carry.
That may be a slight exaggeration, but not by much. The truth is judgment is essential for us to progress in life and graduate to the next level.
What kind of school for training session would it be if you didn't have a test to see if you learn something. That's the basic definition of judgment; it's a test.
The scripture tells us to judge, not lest we be judged. Yet it says that we need to judge ourselves so that we're not caught short and fail the test.
In reality, your mouth and what you say judge you each day by the words that come out. Luke 6:45 declares that we speak out of the abundance of our hearts.
Romans 10, nine, and 10 tell us that what we hear with our ears goes into our heart and then comes out of our mouth in confession.
So every day, we are making judgments with our mouths, revealing what is in our hearts.
I encourage you to feed upon the word of God so your heart can be full of good things.

What's all this business about this new man in Christ and Old things being passed away? That's what second Corinthians 5:17 tells us.
Remember that with God nothing is impossible. So because of that all things have passed away because of Jesus Christ and his work on the cross and the resurrection.
Keep in mind as you study this out everything you hear you must receive my faith.
The Scriptures tell us he that believe us on Jesus Christ receives eternal life. Even though it's a faith action it literally becomes a reality when you receive the work of Christ that he's done for you.
You'll become new because you have been made alive in your soul. Because of that you have communication with the father in heaven.
That's what all this business is about being a new person when you receive Jesus Christ. You're no longer walking around like a zombie a soul without life.
You are a new and living creature.

You can lose your wallet, and you can lose your car keys and all of your credit cards. If you lose those, you can always recover somehow. They seem to come back. But there's one thing in life that you can't afford to lose because you will often never find it again. That thing I'm talking about is trust. Relationships are built on it. Marriages stay together because of it. Lifetime friends celebrate unending birthdays together because they've never lost it. Trust seems like such a simple thing. How could it be so crucial to our daily life in our eternal reward? Because trust is a spiritual thing matter of fact, it's a spirit that God has given to mankind that we may conduct our life in peace strength and longevity. No wonder the Scriptures tell us that we should trust in the Lord with all of our hearts lean not to our understanding but in all of our ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct our paths. Trusting in the Lord is the key to everything.

Oh Lord, I cried. I feel so alone. The burden is too heavy for me to carry, please send help. Then I heard the spirit of God say to me. Son, you're not alone; look around you and perceive by faith and the scriptures those that are committed to your welfare and your success. So I turn my heart again toward the word of God and the love that he has given me. And when I did, I became aware that the room was full of so many Saints of God that were there to support me, moving among the angels there for the same reason. When I turned into the word of God and looked that I heard his spirit, his voice his love comforted and encourage me that I was not alone.

Every world religion that man has ever created has at the core of it a desire to know they are in right standing with God they serve. As far back as history records men have sacrificed themselves in various ways so that they might be received and blessed by their pagan gods.
Religion in itself is structured to please the rulers of that religion that represent God so that you might be excepted in the group and deemed worthy to belong.
All of this is self works and righteousness by the law. None of these things have anything that will take you into the heart of God the father Jehovah.
The only righteousness and right standing that is real is given to us by faith in Jesus Christ. True righteousness is not earned by any form of works or struggle it has been given as a free gift from our father in heaven because of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross.
So I say to you who needs a coat when the sun is out.

Well I'm not talking about that today am I?
We're talking about the saint of God who is in the presence of the Lord with their hands up knowing that they are surrounded by a great company of angels and saints that have departed.
I don't know about you but I need to keep that revelation center in my spirit as I continue to unfold the will of God on this earth in my generation. Why is it important to know? It's important because I want to do the heavy lifting are those we can't see.
The unseen world is the real world and it's the eternal place that you and I belong to even now as we live on this earth.
When you came into Christ you came into his eternal dwelling Place which is in heaven. The Scriptures tell us that we are seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. With that kind of faith fuel in our spirits we can do all things through Jesus Christ that strengthens us.

Saint or sinner? No matter which one you are you have dynamite power in your mouth to change the circumstances of your life. Oh but you say Preacher the center doesn't have that power. Oh yes they do because they also like you are created in the image of God and he put it there.
OK now that I've got your attention let me go on to say this. That person that has not opened their heart to Jesus Christ has a cap on all the potential that God put in their spirits. It's only the child of God that has received Jesus into their spirit that can be fully developed with no limits in sight the potential is unbelievable.
And the main tool is found in your mouth you have the ability to say I will arise and I will go and I will say to my father I love you take me as high and wide and deep as you can I'm ready.
If that sounds strange you welcome to the greatest adventure of your life.

King Solomon is known to be the wisest man that ever lived. According to the Bible it was because God gave him wisdom and understanding. According to Proverbs wisdom and understanding or created beings that were with God from the beginning.
Proverbs eight tells us that wisdom is in the Heights where the main roads Cross.
Psalm 91 refers to a secret place of the most high that if we dwell there we will find protection by the overshadowing power of God himself.
The Scriptures tell us that wisdom should not be an option for the believer to interact with. The spirit of wisdom is something that we walk with and live with every day but most often ignore. The scripture tells us if any man lacks wisdom let him ask.
That sounds pretty close to home to me all I have to do is invite wisdom end of my journey and my journey will be successful.

The little choo-choo train as it's going up the hill was her to say I can do it I can do it.
So it is in the faith life as we step out of the boat believing that we can walk on the water just like Jesus. The Christian message to a broken down trodden human race is that Christ has come to lift you up so that you can fulfill your destiny and do what God called you to do.
You have not been put on this earth to sit around waiting to die you have been put on this earth to succeed and fulfill the will of God.
What is it that you can reach for today that's higher than yourself?
What is the impossible thing that's beyond your natural ability that you need the abilities of Christ to help you do it?
David didn't take goliath down by his own abilities he did it because of the strength of the Lord and faith that God will never fail him.
Show my friend reach for the stars God's got great things ahead in your life.

The Bible tells us that the love of God constrains us.
Notice what it says it is not the power or the authority or the might of God that shapes us and draws us but it is his love for us.
‘God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that who so ever believes in him should not Parrish but have everlasting life
For God sent not his son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through him might be saved.”
Now that's real love. Gods love.
When we receive the love of God we are then able to love our neighbor as our self.

Why we give gifts at Christmas time.
The Scriptures tell us give, and it will be given onto you press down shaken together and running over will men give them to your bosom for with the same measure that you measure out it will be given back to you again.
The tradition that we have of exchanging gifts with those we love comes directly from the heart of our father God. And it was expressed in the greatest gift you ever gave to us Jesus Christ on that Christmas morning.
Because we are made in his image it is natural to us to give to others because that's God's nature in us being expressed.
Remember as you are gathering around the tree and exchanging gifts that you are expressing the very nature of the God who created you because he is a giving father.

On this wonderful Christmas season don't be too busy for the supernatural.
The Christmas season is the greatest exposure of God's supernatural events that the world has ever experienced or witnessed. Among all of the impossible unbelievable things that God has ever done the biggest event is when he gave us Jesus Christ his most favorite choice son.
When he did that he gave himself as a ransom to bring us back to the family that he created. The miracle of Mary conceiving a heavenly bean is often overlooked as the supernatural event that it was.
The Holy Spirit overshadowed Mary and she conceived and brought forth Jesus.
The supernatural is around all of us it happens in our daily life and we often put it off as a coincidence.
Take time today to make note of the things in your life that were far beyond an accident or coincidence but they were a supernatural act of God in your journey that you're on.
Don't be too busy do you notice the supernatural things and give God glory for them.

It's Christmas and we are celebrating king Jesus who rules forever more.
Have you ever considered how long for evermore is?
We celebrate the coming of the baby Jesus as we say at Christmas when in reality he came fully loaded, King of the universe.
So what does that have to do with us today? When we begin to comprehend just how much we are like him because of his indwelling us then we understand what it means to have authority on earth.
The Christmas season is the celebration of the beginning of a season of time that changed the entire course of history. Within the next 33 years life would never be the same again because of what Jesus the baby in the manger did for us on the cross and resurrection.
You cannot separate the beginning from the end because he came to bring us back to the father.
We celebrate Christmas with all of this in mind.

Beloved let us love one another for love is of God and everyone that loves is born of God and knows God. That is the beginning of a set of powerful scriptures out of first John four.
When we speak of love we're talking of a God's love, not man's love.
In this natural world around us we love everything. I love to fish. I love to fly. I love to swim. I love red. I love blue. That's the kind of love that changes. Sometimes it's strong sometimes it's weak but it's guaranteed it will always change.
But the love of God the love that he has put within us never changes. He said he will never leave us nor for sake us he would be with us to the end of the age.
So let that love hold you steady and give you strength to go forward and fulfill his perfect will in your life.

“if you believe you shall receive there's not a trouble or care the good Lord can't relieve, he is just the same today all you have to do is trust and pray,
Believe you must believe.”
That song was a favorite of mine as a single evangelist traveling with another young man around the country promoting faith in Jesus Christ.
Sounds so simple. How is it becomes a complexed to this generation around us.
In the New Testament King Agrippa said something so sad when he told Paul who is in his court, “almost have you persuaded me to believe.”
It's the simple act of believing in Jesus Christ and what he has done for us through the cross and resurrection that brings to us eternal life and all the benefits of God himself.
How do we obtain faith?
First of all faith is a gift from God. There are things that we can do to increase the downflow from heavens faith supply and there's things we can do to reduce that same flow of faith.
The Scriptures refer to little faith and great Faith.
Which of those that we are depends on how open we are for the downflow from God himself.

When Paul stated in the Scriptures I know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, he expressed the true meaning of fellowship. Before we can truly interact with others in our life and our church, we, first of all, must have had an intimate relationship with the father in heaven.
Jesus said there were two Commandments that he was giving them. Number one, love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, etc. The Chi thought here is that you have to love the Lord before loving your neighbor, which is the second commandment.
So the mystery that we need to discover if we're going to have a good fellowship with another is to first have a good fellowship with our heavenly Father through Jesus Christ. When you accomplish that, you will not be offended or wounded when you intermingle with people in the church and your life. Because you'll see them through the eyes of love.

One of the basic human nature's that we inherited is the spirit of selfishness. We love the clutch on to what we have and put a fence around it. Our loving heavenly father gave us a remedy for that dread curse called greed and selfishness. That remedy is the gift of giving. When we give away from our self we become godlike or in other words in the nature of God. Why? Because as stated in John 316 God so loved the world that he gave. We know that the gift that he gave was the best gift and it change the course of every man and woman's life and future. I encourage you to give something away every day and you will stop the power of greed and selfishness in your own life. If you will do this it will affect every level of life body soul and spirit.

Oh taste and see that the Lord is good.
That quotation by David I'm sure was formed while he was a shepherd in the fields at night. It was there alone with the sheep away from his house and family that he structured those many Psalms.
Because of those times alone with his heavenly father he had the strength to face the lion the bear and the giant. Because he spent time in God's great tasting room he was able to have a life filled with victories rulership and wisdom that only God could bring him.
Think about that today as you break open your Bible and read John 316. That familiar verse in front of you is just a taste of what God has in store if you will go into that verse and believe him to be your savior. Once you have taken a taste of that verse the entire kingdom will open up ahead of you and you will walk in places you've never known before and have fellowship with God himself.
Oh by the way, everything that you've known about god so far is just a taste of what he has ahead of you.

Take a moment to think of all the great gifts that you can dream of to give your best friends. Each person you think of you try to have a unique gift that would especially bless them and help them in their life.
After some time you come to the realization that you just don't have enough money to buy all those gifts that you would love to give your friends.
Then somehow it dawned on you that you have one gift that everybody can use and that it would fit each of your friends and benefit them greatly. You realize that you have been given a great amount of this gift so that you can give it away and not charge for it.
It's then that you decide to give away forgiveness and when you do you get forgiveness back to the abundance.
Isn't this a great life?

The word have I hid within my heart that I might not sin against thee. Those were the words of David as he spoke to his God and wrote them in the book of the Psalms. When Jesus was introduced in the New Testament and the new covenant begin to be unfolded he was referred to as the bread of life that came down from heaven. Jesus told us in the upper room supper this is my body this is my blood. He told his disciples that if they would eat his flesh and drink his blood they would enter in to the kingdom of God. When God gave us the Scriptures he gave us the bread of life and condensed form that we may study it read it and eat it and find life when we do.

So you want to stay free and press forward into the purposes of God for your life?
OK I celebrate you and cheer you on encouraging you to do the will of God.
The will of God is for you and I to stay free and press forward to victory and to fulfill our purpose.
The second key that I would like to offer is the Holy Spirit's gift of a heavenly language called other tongues. It has been my experience and I believe scriptural evidence points to the fact that this will increase our strength and give us spiritual insight.
The apostle Paul said that he prayed in tongues more than those that he was addressing. This tells me that it's an important tool in my spiritual tool bag that I should use daily to not only maintain what grow in the Lord.
I encourage you in your journey to use your heavenly language regularly as a means of communicating to the Lord from your spirit man.

Is it really possible for a person to know the will of God in their life?
Well put it this way, if Jesus prayed it and Paul prayed for it then it stands to reason that it's possible to know the will of God and perform it.
So how do I ask a simple question that is just beginning to walk by faith and know a little bit about the gospel know the will of God?
In our journey that we're taking together on the subject of staying free I contend that your heavenly language is part of the agent that God has given you to know his will.
First John 5:14 says this; and this is the confidence that we have in him that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us, the next verses and if we know that he hears us whatever we ask we know that we have the petitions that we have ask of him.
Now that's part of the mysteries of the gospel. There's things we do because we have been commanded even though we don't understand how it works.

One of the most intriguing scriptures in the Bible is genesis 1:26 and 27. It's not only fascinating; it's shocking to think that God created you and me mankind in his image. Then Jesus picks up the theme of that in John 17 in his famous prayer when he said Lord make them one even as you and I are one. In this, we see that there is the possibility of having a lifestyle in this world and the world to come that is thrilling exhilarating mind-blowing beyond anything we could ever ask or think. The enemy of our soul, Satan, comes along and sells cheap thrills. Not only are they cheap, but they are also deadly to the soul and the body and eventually the spirit. Every generation is tempted to sell out to thrills that give no life back. Jesus says, you want the ultimate thrill, follow me, and I'll make you fishers of men; you can heal the sick and raise the dead and open the eyes of the blind. No, that's a thrill. Then he kept it off by saying, oh, and by the way, I give you eternal life; you will live with me forever.

I heard the statement years ago that the gospel is free, but she just got to pay for the freight. Over the years of my teaching, I have used that as an opening statement for an offering as pastor of the church. However, I've realized that that doesn't just have to do with the money; it has to do with our growth and lifestyle as Christian. According to Scripture, you've heard it said that we couldn't work for our salvation or earn it by doing some great deed. Yeah, they find here in the book of James the first chapter in the second verse that it looks like trials that I go through produce maturity and growth in my life. Could that be true? Well, think about it for a moment the trial of your faith worketh patience and let patience have its perfect work that you may be ideal. That sounds to me like a "God plan." It's one of those things that our father God set up to bring us to the ultimate conclusion of mature sons and daughters in the kingdom of God. And I shout hallelujah!

If the curse has been reversed, broken, and taken away by Jesus Christ, why do I feel like I'm under one sometimes? I have asked God to forgive me, but yet I feel so bad at times. When I get up from the altar after weeping and repenting before the Lord, I know he's forgiven me. Yet the next day, I feel like I'm still unforgiven. Why?
Remember this everything operates by Faith.
When you repent again, you express that you did not believe God had forgiven you. The enemy of your soul, the devil, and his demons take advantage of that and bring the effects of the curse.
Jesus broke the curse at the cross and resurrection; it no longer has dominion over you.
Believe it, confess it and stand firm because the devil has no power any longer in your life.

What does it mean when we say that you should "stay by the stuff?"
In the Scriptures, there's a story of David when he was living in Ziklag. After the town had been burned and all of their families were taken away captive, God told them to pursue the enemy. At one point, half the men got tired and wanted to rest. The other men said, if you stay here you don't get any of the riches that we will capture from the enemy.
However David stepped in and said no those that stay here with the stuff and protect it will get the same reward as those that go out and fight the enemy in battle.
So be encouraged dear ones if you feel like you have been left out when everyone else goes out to fight. You are so important because you are staying steady and holding up the hands of those around you with encouragement and prayer.

What you're trying to tell me there's a secret code before I can understand the Bible?
Yes that's exactly what I'm saying. And only those that have that secret code can understand what the Bible to saying and what your purposes in this world.
There's multitudes of people that read the Bible as a history book as poetry or fantasy.
There's also some people in the church that read the Bible and go to sleep while they're reading it because they're getting no life out of it.
It becomes a dead book to them because they do not know the code.
When Jesus asked Peter who he thought Jesus was. Peter said you are our Christ the son of the living God.
Jesus said you didn't get that on your own the father in heaven gave it to you.
Bingo! There's a code. It's the Holy Spirit that opens up the Bible and gives us the revelation of who our father is and who Jesus is to us.

Whoops, I didn't see that one coming! Among the many things you will never hear God say the statement above is one of them. Our heavenly father is never cut short or surprised he is always prepared ahead of time. Most of the storms that come into our life certainly must be for a test to our faith to see if we trust the Lord's ability and his prepared deliverance. Look at Jesus and the disciples in the middle of a storm. Jesus is asleep the disciples are beside themselves with fear. Fear turned into criticism and accusation against the very one that was there to deliver them. Jesus was asleep in the boat because he knew the answer was already given by his father; Authority over storms. Take courage my friend long before our troubles come God already has a ram in the Thicket.

More precious than gold! More precious than gold, how could that be? After all, a pile of gold is what everyone seems to be after. Wouldn't that satisfy everything that you ever desire in life if you had a pile of gold in your backyard? It sure seems that way when you look around and see the world scratching their way up the mountain of success to get that gold. And yet, the Scriptures tell us that the trying of our faith is more precious than gold. OK, I believe the Scriptures, so what's going on after?

What is a covenant and why is it so important to God into his kingdom?
A covenant is an agreement that is made between two parties. It's a contract and in agreement that establishes plans for the future of the two that sign the contract.
God always and only deals with mankind through covenants.
A prophecy that God has given you is in agreement that you have made with God and because of that God is able to fulfill that agreement in your life. Believing the prophecy is what makes the agreement.
I encourage you in this season of our life to remember the prophecies and the words that God has spoken to you and that you have said yes to. Let them come up before your face again hold them before the Lord renew your covenants with him.

Jesus said unless a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die it abideth alone. But if it dies it brings forth much fruit.
What have you lost that made you think it was the end of the world for you. Has something died in your life such as a job or a relationship?
Be encouraged today as you look at the principles of Christ and his kingdom when he said that which you bury in the ground will come forth in abundance.
There are things we just have to let go and give it to God and let him bring it back in his way in time.
When you give your seed offering to the Lord you are really burying it in his ground.
It's gone out of your control but it is in the hands of God that he will bring it back multiplied.
Open your heart today to receive your harvest for the things that you have lost or that have been stolen from you. They will come back multiplied.

The world that I was raised in had a statement that they made about children, and it was children should be seen and not heard. And there is some truth to that. When it comes to conversation among adults, it's hard to be heard over the noise of a child. However, along with that statement also comes an attitude that children are not that important to our Conversation. When the children tried to come to Jesus, the disciples said, no, this is for adults; only stay away. Jesus didn't try to cover his irritation when he told them to suffer the little children to come onto me for such is the kingdom of heaven. The Scriptures tell us that if we come as a child with humility, trust, and forgiveness, we can enter the kingdom of heaven. Children have a wonderful imagination; they can believe anything. So it is with you and me as we come into the kingdom of God; open your heart to believe. For the Scriptures tell us he didn't believe us shall receive.

The Scriptures tell us that men and women are to pray and not faint. The reverse of that scripture is that if we don't pray, we will faint and become weary and quit. This is why the apostle Paul in First Timothy two and one told young Timothy that first of all, he should pray; he urged him to do it first. You and I have a choice today to follow the commands of the scripture and pray, or we can listen to the lies of Satan and fail. Intercession is a gift that God has given us to deliver others from bondage and help others be healed and made whole. Intercession is the gift of giving away from ourselves when we do that. The law of my multiplication kicks in, and God gives back to our abundance. As Paul said, first of all, I urge you to pray.

Here are two different conversations. See which one you think will produce the right results.
Hey dad, this is Jake. Can I borrow the car tonight? Jake who? Jake, your son, you know, the middle one. Your mother and I haven't seen you in 10 years, and you call up and want to borrow my car, no way.
Well, dad, it's been a good day, and we got a lot done on the job. I'm sure glad we can work together and spend extra time together just hanging out. And oh, by the way, if it's possible, can I borrow the car tonight. Sure thing, son, glad to help out matter fact you can keep it a couple of days if you need it.
Do you see the difference in prayer when we come to him for a request? The key is in a relationship spending time with him, and loving him. That's the kind of prayer that bring results.

In most of the large shopping malls in America, you come to a map when you enter the door. When you stand in front of that map, you'll see a red arrow that says you are here. The whole point is that if you don't know where you are, how can you start your journey to where you want to go. So it is in our prayer life in our prayer journey how do I get into the presence of the Lord, which I referred to as the throne room we're going abides. In our walk together this week through the discussion of our prayer life, my first direction to you is how we find the door and get in. To state quite simply, the entrance in is thanksgiving. Joined me today and this week; let's let the Holy Spirit inspire us in our prayer life.

Be not weary in well-doing, for if you don't quit, you will get what you asked for. Of course, that is my rendition of a great scripture that encourages us not to stop praying because we will receive our reward if we continue. How many have given up just before God was going to answer their prayers? The mother of Samuel continues to cry out to God. She said I'd die if I didn't have a son. The mother of John the Baptist cried out all of her life until she was an old lady, and God answered her prayer. So quit trying to figure God out; just believe that he will hear your prayer and bring it to you at the right time in the right place with the right results. Hey, could it be a matter of trust?

As the story goes, King David was in a jam and fighting for his life and the life of his nation. God told him that when he heard the sound of marching feet in the tops of the mulberry trees, help was on the way. That sound was a witness that the angel army had shown up, and it was his signal to go into battle because the victory was already won. What sound are you hearing? Is it the sound of the enemy, and they're mocking announcements of defeat? Most of the secular news broadcasts remind me of those on Goliaths side that marked David when he came to win the battle for Israel by taking out Goliath. Be careful who you're listening to and what you're hearing. Because if you're not careful, you'll miss God's signal to go into battle, for our victory is already one because of His promise to us. I hear the sound of the angelic army marching in the tops of the trees. God's telling us the victory is ours; let's take back our nation.

So you say you had a dream well, you must've had pizza before you went to bed. Does that sound familiar if it does, you've probably heard it in church. No, why would I say that? Because the modern church has completely dropped the ball when it comes to understanding that God teaches us and leads us through our dream life. Unfortunately, many of us have not been trained to understand or interpret the language of dreams. I am convinced that if we are going to fulfill the will of God as a son of God, we must embrace our dreams as one of God's vehicles to speak to us. So let your understanding be expanded as you mature and grow in your relationship with your heavenly father.

So you've been saved and born again converted. Now what? Where do we go from here? Well, I know the usual routine is to stay out of sin so I can go to Heaven. Sure, that's a good idea and a pretty good goal to have in life. What was God the Father's goal when he sent Jesus to die in your place and make you a new creature in Christ Jesus? I don't think so. What are the Scriptures saying that he has made us new creatures and that everything has become new? Just how far does that go? Can we dare think that it would go beyond our imagination? The apostle Paul thought so. So how about you? Are you ready to stretch yourself into some new territories of imagining how far this new creation will take you? I am.

The Scriptures tell us that we should go on into maturity, and this we will if God permits. The word maturity is also interpreted as perfection. So here's my question does God permit perfection? I suppose a better question would be what would hinder us from God allowing us to go on into maturity in that place of spiritual perfection. The first thing I know that would hinder is unbelief. Another would be a lack of understanding or knowledge of the spiritual life that God has planned for each of us. The scripture says that God's people perish because of the lack of knowledge. So here's my suggestion for you. First of all, believe that it's possible to mature into a place that the Scriptures would refer to as perfect. Secondly, the Scriptures also tell us to study to see if these things are true. To begin searching out the Scriptures, lean into the spirit, wait upon him, and watch what happens. After all the promises in the day that you seek me with your whole heart, you'll find me.

Among all of the questions that people want to know is what about my future? It starts as children I wonder if I'll be a fireman or a space cadet. The quest never ends some go to fortunetellers while others go to prophets. The big secret that everyone should know is that God has made a way for those who have put their trust in him to know their future. We see our future in many ways. Sometimes we see it through the Scriptures other times through the prophets. But most often we see our future through our relationship and personal time with the father as we meditate in his presence. You can see your future if you develop your eye that God has put within you.

What does it mean equal partnership? Well, first of all, whatever you do, you do together, and you receive the same reward back. The apostle Paul uses the marriage covenant as the example of an equal earthly partnership that works. He refers to the marriage when referring to you and I and our relationship with Jesus Christ. When we come in to covenant with Christ through salvation, we become partners, and therefore we get to share and all the benefits that Christ has for himself. For instants, he died for us on the cross, and we died with him when he did. Then he rose from the dead, and when he did, we rose with him. And when he ascended to the father, we got to go along now we're seated in heavenly places with Christ in and the authority ruling and reigning in the kingdom of God.

Out of one side of our mouth, we sing, “to be like Jesus to be like Jesus, all I want is to be like him.” Yet on the other side of our mouth, we are saying I'm not worthy of being like Jesus because of all my weaknesses. The Scriptures tell us that a person acting like that is a person with a double mind, and the Scriptures tell us that a double-minded man is unstable in all of his ways. So face the scriptural facts and confess today that he has made you into his image and that the fullness of the Godhead bodily dwells in you. Say to yourself out loud, because Christ lives in me, I have his nature, and I have his spirit. Therefore I am his twin brother. We have the same father, and we have the same spirit.

When the Scriptures tell us that fear has torment, it's not kidding. Fear produces so many side effects, including sickness, depression and hopelessness.
We are in a download of fear coming from several sources, including our media in our politics and even our friends. The end result is we have lost faith and hope in our future. Because of that, many Christians are looking to escape and go to heaven. I hope that Jesus comes before it gets any worse.
Well, I've got good news for you that's not gonna happen by Thursday.
So because of that, take heart. The real good news is that God's got a plan for your future; when you find it and hold onto it, it's a marvelous experience of extended version and faith.

There was a love song in the 1960s titled "we live in two different worlds." It was the cry out of the soul of a man who was in love with a girl that lived in the city, and he was a country boy. The sad ending of the song was it would never work because I love someone I can never have. The believer in Jesus Christ has discovered the secret of living in two different worlds. We are alive today in the world we live in, and we influence it in so many ways. Yet because of the miracle of new birth and the life of Christ that we have, we are alive in the heavenly's and already are living in our eternity. The scripture clearly teaches us that we are seated right now in heavenly places with Christ Jesus on the seat of authority that the father has made for us. This is what faith in Christ is all about; it means that we will never die because we are eternally alive today and tomorrow and forever. YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.co...

God has commanded us to pray always and to not cease in our prayers. He also said that men and women should not faint, but we should pray. That statement indicates that if we don't pray, we will faint.
We know we're fainting when we have unbelief, fear, doubt, and depression. The life of prayer will cure that.
However, discouragement comes when we pray, and it seems like we're talking to her self we never hear the other side of the conversation.
Be encouraged today that you can hear the voice of the Lord when you pray. God has devised so many ways for you to hear him; let him show you some of them.

As a young preacher's kid, we had the privilege of going out to eat with our apostle on occasion. When we did, he would always tell me George CPL. Of course, I asked him the first time what he meant, and then every time after, I knew exactly what he was telling me. CPL meant clean plate leave. We always eat at the cafeteria, and you could take as much as you wanted to. My apostle said, George if you're going to take it easy, all of it, don't leave it on your plate.
That's a strange story to tell you when we're talking about God's nature and his faithfulness. God has that same attitude when he deals with us that everything he starts, he always finishes. His promises are true; his covenants are unbroken; you can depend on him to fulfill his desires for you.
So how do we respond? We respond by faith and obedience. When we do, we receive the abundance of grace and the gift of salvation.
I love the declaration Jesus made on the cross that sums it all up when he said it is finished.

What is God saying to the church today? Well, he's saying quite a bit, but it's really good. In reality, God's message to us never changes even in the different seasons that come our way. When we understand the foundational gift that God has given us through Jesus Christ, we can always walk in trust and faith that he will do good for us. It's in the midst of stress and trouble when the refreshing of the Lord really is appreciated and received. In the times of ease, Israel forsook the Lord; then, when trouble came, they sought him again. If there ever was a time of trouble for our nation and the church, it's today. If there ever was a better time to be refreshed, now is the time. Set open up your heart and let the Lord pour his encouraging spirit into your situation.

Some of the seeds of greatness can be discovered in the patterns of history and gods dealing with nations and peoples. Once again, I am detecting the same ingredients in the great awakening in the 1700s with George Whitfield are now being manifested among us and in the nations. We see outbreaks of God's marvelous workings in America and the nations of the world, and yet the bad news keeps coming with magnification. History tells us that the Pharisees of the world end of the church want to cancel what God is doing every time. However, I believe this day is different great awakening is happening among us, and this generation of Pharisees will not stop it's a fact on changing history.

So you want revival. Do you even know what you're in? Well, don't be surprised if it gets a little messy. You've probably been raised in a church that has a schedule, and they keep it pretty tight. They may say the Holy Spirit is in charge of the service, but really the clock on the wall is. Most of the time, or excuse is we don't want to wear the Saints out would like them to come back again. So our services are safe and somewhat vanilla most of the time. Well, then some spiritual hothead actually prays, and revival comes, and everything blows apart. Pandemonium or revival. Sometimes they look the same. But let me tell you, there's nothing like the sweet presence of God doing his work among his people.

Consider the power of the sample. Just think of the Costco warehouse and the sales that are going on while you're shopping. Everywhere you turn, there's someone with a food cart offering you a sample. They're telling you to taste this because a little bit is good and because of that you will buy the big package of it. We used to have a saying in the church taste and see that the Lord is good. A Christian's lifestyle is really a window into Christianity. Those that walk by and look into that window will want more of what they see because it is good. So leave your window open so the world will taste the goodness of God and want more.

Him who the Son has set free is free indeed. That's just about as clear as the message gets true freedom comes from Jesus and only from Jesus. It's not uncommon for a government to imagine they are giving you freedom. The only freedom they would be able to pass on what they had received from their creator. Our American Constitution is very clear that we receive our freedom personally from our creator and all men are created equal in his sight. Therefore rejoice today in the fact that you are free because of Jesus and his work on the cross and the resurrection. Enjoy each day in the sunshine of his love. Happy Independence Day America because of Jesus.

There is a common practice that you will see before every physical contest. It is the practice of stretching the muscles before you use them. If you don't do that, you could damage yourself or hinder your ability to win the race. There is another popular place to hear the term stretching. That place is at the horse race track, where they win by a stretch. In other words, the horse and rider stretched as far as they could so their nose would go across the finish line first. The apostle Paul said that he was stretching so that he might win the prize. Just think about that for a moment, a man of God, an apostle of God, put in the extra effort to do the will of God. If there ever was a day for you and me to put ourselves into this battle and stretch ourselves, today's the day.

Cancel culture, you say? Well, that's what we're hearing, isn't it? It boils down to arbitrary rules being set in motion to take away our freedom and our ability to think and act for ourselves. Wow, does that ever sound like someone we've heard about before—hint hint? The Scriptures tell us that the enemy of our soul, Satan goes around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. It also tells us that the enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy. No, that sounds like cancel culture to me. After all, Satan is the father of lies and deceit, and trickery. Now here's the real author of cancel culture. Jesus said I have come that you have life and have that more abundantly. He also said the Spirit of the Lord is upon me and has anointed me to set the captives free, open the eyes of the blind and proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord. Now that's real cancel culture. We were in bondage, and he canceled it. We were doomed for death, and he canceled it and gave us life. We were orphans cast off and thrown away without a father. He excepted us back into the family and gave us a father, and cancel our former sins and failures. Show my friend embrace heavens cancel culture and enjoy life forevermore.

Have you ever failed at something? Well, if you're more than five days old, you probably have it's part of life, isn't it. Depression can be a byproduct of failure because we see ourselves locked in an unending downward spiral. Then our own words begin to condemn us as we say I'll never succeed; look at all my failures. Well, I'm here to tell you failure is just practice for the next time you do it, you will be better at it. Can you imagine any of our great sports athletes or famous singers if they hadn't overcome failure along the way.
Do you think Babe Ruth was a home run hero the first time he stepped up to the plate? Of course not. They say he struck out more times, and he hit home runs, but because he kept at it, he became famous as a home run king.
What if Shakespear gave up on the first poem that he wrote? We would've never heard of him. And so it goes.
Kingdom of God life is no different; you don't quit when you fail; you simply count it as practice for the next time you get up to bat.
Like the comic said back in the 60s, this is my ball in bed, and I can swing until I hit a homer.

Say what? You're a mystic? Yes, I am, and I'll tell you why. I induce a feeling of awe and wonder. I am stirred by or attracted to the inexplainable. I love to look into the obscure and the mysterious side of God's kingdom. And I speak in other tongues. I have a language that speaks mysteries. So there you go, I am a mystic. I don't live in a cave. Don't wear a long robe and have a staff. Nor have I gone along Beard. However, I fit the role of the biblical mystic, the prophet, the one who sees and hears behind the scenes and knows the heart of God. It's a great life; I wouldn't have it any other way. Care to join me?

When can I expect my answer to come from God? That sounds like a reasonable question that I hear from many people. And add a second question what have I done wrong that I haven't received my answer? When it comes to receiving your miracle, key number one is believing that what you asked for, you will receive. Going a little further than that, the things that you asked for you have received already my faith. But you say show me the proof, then I'll believe. Sorry, I can't help you with that when you're in the wrong store for that order to go through. The scripture still tells us that he who believes she will receive if they doubt not a. So let your faith lead you to the miracle that God has promised.

"Hey, little Johnny, what do you want to be when you grow up?" If that sounds familiar, it's because most of us start that way in life, wondering what we want to be someday. Unfortunately for many people, that quest and searching continue for a lifetime with disappointments along the way. When the Scriptures make the statement that "this is the will of God concerning you," it has something definite in mind. Do you think it would be too much to believe that God would actually have a purpose for you and me? No, of course not. The book of Deuteronomy speaks of God's desire that you would be blessed and have a good success. So that would be his will. In the New Testament, he states beloved I wish above all things of me is prosper and be in health. So that also would be his will. Then it stated that God desires that all men and women be saved and come into the knowledge of the truth. That, again, is his will. So you see, God has a purpose and a plan for each of us, and we can find it as we find him.

Tonight we have the privilege to spend some time with Pastor Kristen Wambach, of Corvallis Oregon, the author of "The Unfinished Book." In her book, she describes her journey into the world of the supernatural, where angels and God's spiritual host are familiar companions with her as she works in the Kingdom of God. Kristen Wambach has a contagious spirit that will affect your faith and open doors of possibilities in your own journey into the spiritual world of God's great love.

So you say you want to see and hear what's happening in the heavenly realms? Well, just how serious are you about it? Some people answer and say, well, if God wants me to see, he'll make it happen. Yet there's something fundamental about the word seek ye first the kingdom of heaven. And that reminder that we are to seek after him IE those who seek me shall find me. Passion and desire seem to have a major part in our progress in spiritual matters. Somewhat like when you fall in love with someone, you pursue it to its desired conclusion. So what is with the kingdom of heaven and all this "God stuff." The Proverbs tell us those who seek me early shall find me. Well, how about it? Are you serious about having your eyes and ears open. Let's talk about it today?

Smith Wigglesworth, that great man's faith from the last century, said that he was satisfied with dissatisfaction. Well, if you understand that statement, then you're one of the people that are questing for God's mysteries to be unfolded in their lifetime. If you are satisfied with the status quo, my prayer is that God stirs your heart and puts that coal of fire in your spirit again so that you will not be satisfied until the mysteries of heaven are revealed in your lifetime. What is it about the sons of Issachar that intrigue us so much? They knew the times in the seasons. There is something in our spirits that cries out to do the same.

Is there hope for America? Of course, there is. According to the prophetic word that God has been giving for generations, America has a future that is yet to be unfolded. Beginning with one of our first founding fathers, George Washington. He had a vision of the future of America and a word from God that his current today and speaks to this moment that we're in. It is not God's purpose to be defeated in his plan that he laid out for this nation. That's why he has released an invasion of angels for this season of time to bring us back to our original purpose and destiny for America. Our job is to cooperate and work with our angels in building and extending the kingdom of God on earth, which includes victory over the enemy. Be faithful to your call and purpose that God has put you in, and you will be a partner a co-laborer working alongside your angels.

The great division between spiritual life and natural life, where did it come from? Somewhere in our Christian roots passed, they told us that if your spiritual, you cannot function in the natural world. So the spiritual people went into the monasteries and Hid out in caves. Today they stay away from the church and let their wives and mothers do the praying. How much we are missing when we don’t realize that spiritual life is a very Practical life.

What! You've got to be kidding; that's not only impossible it's a waste of our time even talking about it. OK, then what should we talk about? We are Christians; we believe in a God who created the universe, which says that he can do all things. So, where do we start? Christianity, at best, is a mystical experience. We believe we have been forgiven of our sins because of a man we know to be God died on the cross for us. Know if that's not weird or impossible, I don't know what it is, yet we believe it. We also believe that that same man, Jesus Christ, the son of God, went into another realm called heaven to make room for us, and we're going to live there the rest of eternity. Now that's not impossible; I don't know what it is. So walking on water is not a big deal compared to that. Ready to get out of the boat and stretch your legs?

How many times have we sung that song? "To be like Jesus to be like Jesus, all I want is to be like him all through life's journey from earth to glory; all I want is to be like him." Well, It's time we begin to get a clear picture of who he is today, not who he was when he walked the shores of Galilee. The great revelation that we have is that we are like Jesus because the Father has made us into his image because of the life that he has given us.

I once was blind, but now I see. It was lost, but now I'm found. I once was, but now I live. Interesting shocking confusing yet intriguing. All of those statements are true when you come into the world where Jesus is in control of your life again. That song we used to sing in the church is certainly true. "Without him, I can do nothing without him I would surely fail without him; I would be like a ship without a sail." The counterpart to that phrase of singing is this. But with him, I will not fail, but with him, I can do all things, and with him, I will be that ship that has that sail. Only in Jesus will you find the freedom to be who God made you to be.

'The Lord delays His coming.' Now you don't want to be caught saying that around church folk, you may be cast out. Why, you ask? Because in most cases delay means they're not coming or at least not on time. Do you ever feel like a clock is ticking and you're about ready to lose out because your miracle hasn't come yet? Well, I call that the spirit of delay trying to creep into your thoughts. The promises of God and the prophecies that the prophets speak most often have a time frame and conditions. The last thing we want to do is doubt the promises of God that's a guarantee that they will delay and often never come to pass. Why? Because everything that happens in the spiritual kingdom of God is triggered by believing in faith. You start with faith; you live with faith, and you receive by faith. He has not delayed, and he will never fail your promise he's sure and amen.

An old song of the church says, "On Christ the solid rock I stand all other ground is sinking sand."
That song is pointing to the parable that Jesus gave about the man building his house upon the rock or the sand. The house on the sand Phil when the storm came to the house of the rock did not.
This is not just an example of our Christian life; this is a picture of how life really works.
Every one of us have our feet planted on something that we stand on. That something has been formed by who has taught us and shaped our thinking. If that thinking is missing the rock Christ Jesus, then we are certainly standing on shifting sand.
Our house is guaranteed to fall when the storm comes unless our feet are thinking in our faith are planted firmly on the life and testimony of Jesus Christ.

Are you familiar with the biblical principle That Whatever you can visualize, imagine or see, you can receive. Well, if you haven't, it's all through the word of God. Vision always comes before doing. .All the profits of the Old Testament and the men and women of God in the New Testament we're all directed, inspired, and motivated by what they saw in their spirit and in the visions that God sent their way. A dream is just a sleepy vision. The book of Acts says that Paul had a vision appear in the night what was that it was a dream. Open your spirit up to the spirit of God; it will inspire you to see and hear God's purpose for your life. And when you do, it will motivate your spirit and your soul to get involved and do the work of the Lord you have been called to. Just like it said about Sampson, it's time to shake ourselves and be and do what God has proposed that we should do.

If God's so interested in talking to me, why doesn't he show up and say something? Sound familiar? Well, you and I may not have said those words, but by our actions, we have said exactly that. If you can catch up with me, God and I have time in my schedule; we'll talk. Or something like that. If that sounds too shocking this early in the morning, then maybe it's time for a wake-up call, and we realize God is still making the rules. In the church, we love to hear the stories of the mystics how they heard the Lord's voice and saw his face. We tend to forget they hid away and spent time in the Lord's presence, making room for God to show up in their life. So taking a hint from that, let's clear some space for God's face.

When I entered the room, I knew I was home; it was the sound of the congregation of God's people lifting their voices before their Father in glorious praise and worship. It wasn't the sound of a professional band playing from the stage or a group of singers singing the songs for the people. It was the sound that can only be replicated by saints that are returning to the Father his dew praise and worship. It seems that this generation is a custom to getting their information and entertainment office small and large screens, so we stand in dark rooms reading words off of the screen wall most of the energy and sound is coming off of the stage in front of us. I've noticed that the charismatic Pentecostal churches have gone back to A worship that is entertaining instead of involving the people as the main source of the sound of worship coming forth. But they say if we don't do it this way, we won't attract this young generation to the church. Well, if you're in competition with the world, good luck with that. You'll be forever scratching around trying to find out how to entertain the world in the church building. So what's the answer? How do we reverse the curve and get back on track with scripture worship? Take a journey through the Scriptures and listen to the sounds of praise coming out of the Psalms, both loud voices and soft whispers, until the angels gather around to listen to God's redeemed sending praises back to you their father. The sound is so unique it's already patent by heaven itself.

Happy Easter! This is my spiritual birthday. I was born again at The Easter pageant at our church in Long Beach, California, In 1950. Yes, When I got up from the altar, I went to my mother, and I said, mother, I just got saved. If I was older, I probably would've said, 'where to from now?' But since I was just a kid, it took a few years for me to ask that question where to God, why did I get saved and born again. It was in those early years that I begin to realize salvation was just the beginning. My experience on Easter celebrating the resurrection of Jesus was not the end of it; it was just the foundational part of my journey with Christ. Unfortunately, many in the church stop there and wait for the end of time or the end of their life so they can go to heaven and enjoy what God intended for us to enjoy now and Forever. After all, that's what eternal life means you are alive in Christ because of the resurrection, so enjoy your new life in Christ. Today.

What does it take to succeed as a spiritual person with faith in the hour that we live. Of course, all of our foundational truths that we stand on come out of what the Bible says about men and women who lived the faith life long before we did. King David is one example that the Holy Spirit has given us to see the quality that it takes for leadership and success. You and I, as spiritual people, have the same opportunity to stand on unshakable principles that will guarantee our victories. Be encouraged to stand your ground and continue to be faithful to God's principles that he's put in your spirit to succeed.

You're sitting on the living room couch looking out the window with your eye on the driveway. Will, they ever come, you think as you nervously twitch back-and-forth. Waiting for something or someone can be very frustrating and, after a while discouraging. Many times and at some point, we turn the lights off and go to bed. We are now at that place in the history of our nation and our Christian walk. Our expectation has been peaked quite a few times, yet what we look for or expected has not materialized. Some of what we were expecting was our own ideas and desires. That will bring disappointment every time. We are now at a place that we really need to know what God's desires are and stay in line and on track with Him. Because His promises will never fail, and His plans always succeed.

What? You're suggesting that doubt is sinful. Let's put it this way it's really a relationship with the Father we're talking about. Remember when Jesus told his disciples that he did nothing but what the father told him or what he saw the Father doing? Now with that in mind, let me ask you this. If Jesus had done something country or out of his Father's desires, would that have been in? Your heart knows the difference between faith or sin because it is connected to the heart of God.

Jesus paid the debt that he did not owe, and that was for our sake; it was our debt of sin. We deserved judgment and punishment and death. But God so loved the world that he sent his son to pay our penalty in his death and resurrection. This is the week that we prepare to celebrate the resurrection day, marking the beginning of freedom from sin and death for all mankind. What a miracle only God could perform, and he did it because he loves us. Catch hold of the vision that God has for your future and rejoice in the price he paid for you to be free.

Welcome to The Sunday Night Blessing Live.
Sunday night with the family of God all around me shouting and praising was the best time of the week. But, poof, it's gone.
So here we are again. We are gathered together in His name so there is no distance in prayer and faith. Let's enjoy a refreshing time together in the presence of the Father.
That was a stupid idea. That was a wonderful idea,you're going to go places.
Now honestly folks. Which one would you like to hear when you're struggling to do the right job under pressure. Or perhaps you're new to the company and would like to impress someone with your understanding of the project. Which one of those statements would get more out of you. Which one would increase your creativity.
I think you know that don't you. It's a word of encouragement that makes all the difference in the world. And that goes back to our childhood. Every person breathing air needs to hear a good word. Something to encourage them to go forward and be all they can be.
When the Scriptures tell us that Jesus is the word and came to earth to deliver a message from the Father. We can believe it's a good word of encouragement that will give us just what we need to fulfill the will of God.
Doorways portals and hope.
Each of these names gives us a sense of the experience that God has in store for those who put their trust in him. Christianity is not just, get saved, and sit on the bus stop waiting for the rapture bus. To be a Christian, to receive Christ as Savior, is to step into a world beyond your imagination. In this world of Gods presence, power and maturity are where you belong. It's in this world where you'll find your true identity in Christ. And you will find your true purpose in this Life's journey.
The end result as there is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus.
Join me in these next few moments as we journey into some of these areas of Gods wonderful world.
Jesus said before you’ve got your prayer finished the answer is already on the way because God is never surprised he always prepares ahead of time. Don’t allow past failures to stop you from seeing God‘s victory is in your future. Remember the Father is the greatest planer and knows how to prepare ahead of time. Open up your mind to receive the bigger and better things that God has in store for you.
Gone gone gone gone yes my sins are gone now my soul is free and in my hearts a song Buried in the Deepest sea yes that’s good enough for me I shall live eternally praise God my sins are G O N E Gone The reality of Sins being gone from many Christians life is a shock and in some cases unbelievable. But according to Romans chapter 6 when Christ died sin was no longer a bondage to him. It also says we died with him therefore sin is no longer a bondage to us who believe This is your day to believe for bigger and better things than you’ve ever imagined. Sin no longer has dominion over you.
Does Jesus come in parts and pieces? Or do we get all of him when we receive him as Lord? Romans 8:8-14 tells us that we have died and rose again with the same life that Jesus rose from the dead with. Because of that we now live this life with his righteousness and all that comes with that. What a time to be alive and to understand who we are in Christ.
Looking past the pages of the Bible. The professor of religion at the University opens the Bible like a poetry book or history book. All they see is the page, the ink and the paper. The converted one sees past the page and the ink and hears the Spirit of God teach the deep things of God. That is what we’re after when we look into the Bible.
The rich guy on the hill. There are many blessings and benefits living close to the rich guy on the hill. You can enjoy the good road he builds and work in his factory. But you’ll never enjoyed his wealth and his relationship until you move into his house and Marry him. So it is with Christ you can enjoy all the things that God has provided a good world to live in etc. Those are all the things he’s provided that we enjoy even though we don’t live in his house. We have been called to marry Christ and when we Marry Christ we inherit all of his wealth, all of his authority and all of the blessings of having a personal relationship with Christ, who is the rich man on the hill.
The big news to most people is that God has a plan for their life. The Scripture says he has plans for your good. The apostle Paul said he is able to do exceedingly abundantly beyond what we could even ask or think. Think real hard and God has something better than you can think. This is a good day to find out what God has in mind for you. And believe me, it’s very good.

How To Have Open Eyes Into The Spirit World
"Lord open his eyes that he may see," said the prophet about his young servant.
How many times have we prayed that or asked that same question "Lord let me see what's going on in my life"? To see past the natural world into the spiritual world has been reserved for the super-spiritual, only those that are special called ones. Or so it seems.
However, when it comes to the kingdom of God we are assured that each of us stands before the Father as individual sons and daughters. Our Father has no special ones that he reserves extra special spiritual insight to. The scripture tells us whosoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Contained in that word saved is everything you need from the Father.
Be reassured today as you listen to this teaching that you're qualified to receive His best and that he is called you into His chamber to tell you the secrets of Heaven.

How To Enter The Doorway Of Rest and Joy
When Jesus said that he was the door and that we could enter and find rest, He had specific things in mind that he had prepared for those who believe Him and believe in Him.
Jesus said that a little child should not even miss this wonderful secret of entering because it was so simple. Yet multitudes of people, including many in the Christian church, live in a state of unrest and unhappiness. This should not be the case, my friend. God has provided in, Christ Jesus, everything that we need for life and godliness. It is all found in what is called faith or believing that Jesus is who He says He is. The doorway to Gods grace, forgiveness, healing hope, rest and joy.
Come and spend a few moments with me as I listen to the Holy Spirit talk to us about God's love toward us and how He has provided for us a way to live a life of peace.
What does it mean to you to be born again?
That's a great question with a variety of answers from many Christians. Join me in this podcast as we talk about our born-again experience and what it means to our life here on earth. Find out where your sources is coming from and where you are drawing your strength, encouragement and your vision from.
If you're drawing them from the past you will continue to be confused and weakened.
We must learn to draw from Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. When we really begin to look onto Jesus and know he is our source that's when life begins to be satisfying and full of meaning.
Looking into Jesus the author and finisher of our faith is not just a beautiful verse it is the key to fulfilling your destiny and your call that God has placed within you for His glory.
Open My Eyes That I May See.
When someone says to you, 'Oh now I see what you mean'. What they really are saying is now I understand what you're telling me. So when we are talking about seeing in the spirit, much of what we are saying is I am understanding the way the Spirit of God operates and what God is saying to us.
However, There are several ways that understanding comes to a person. We can see pictures and also hear words. Both of them would be considered Seeing in the spirit. Then both of them are an avenue that God uses to bring understanding to us concerning His ways.

"He that cometh to God must believe that He is". (Heb 11:6)
Lord, I believe help my unbelief. (Mk 9:24)
What does it mean to believe and what are we to believe in? What is faith and where does it come from? Throughout the centuries since the founding of the early church, the focus of faith has changed dramatically from place to place and person-to-person.
At one time it was focused on the creeds and the doctrines of the church, if you believed and confessed them, you were saved. While at other times it was focused on, and still is, a man or a leader, holy person to bring salvation to you.
But we have come to learn that there is only one person to focus our faith on and that is Jesus Christ. ( Acts 4:12)
Believing on Jesus and who He is, and why he came is the doorway into the room called "Believing Faith".
Come with me for the next few moments, let's explore this room together.
