Life is not a straight line. At some point, living it fully will require you to walk by faith, and faith does not wait for perfect conditions. Faith moves on a maybe.In 1 Samuel 14, Israel is pressed down in a low place: a trembling king, six hundred frightened men, and only two swords in the whole nation. But one young man got tired of living in bondage. Jonathan had no burning bush, no prophecy, no open vision. He had one revelation: nothing restrains the Lord from saving by many or by few. And that was enough to move on.You will either live your life based on your situation or your revelation. Your situation says stay put. Your revelation says move.Scriptures: 1 Samuel 14:1-16, 1 Samuel 14:2, 1 Samuel 14:4, 1 Samuel 14:6, 1 Samuel 14:7, 1 Samuel 14:11-12, 1 Samuel 14:15-16, 1 Samuel 17, 2 Corinthians 5:7, Matthew 14:22-33Stay connected at https://calvaryfl.com

s own territory, and all Jehoshaphat had was an altar, a song, and a name to call on. He went to the altar, and then he sang. When the singers lifted their voice, the Lord set ambushes against the enemy, and Judah never had to swing a single blow. Yahweh Sabaoth is the LORD of Hosts, the LORD who commands the armies of heaven. He did not retire after the Old Testament. He put on flesh. Jesus is Yahweh Sabaoth in a body, the same Commander John saw riding on a white horse with the armies of heaven behind Him. He has never lost a battle. Not at the Red Sea. Not at Jericho. Not at Calvary. Not in Ziz. And not in your situation either.He fights. You sing. That is the whole strategy. That is the whole revelation. That is the whole victory.Three points from this message:No matter how great your problem is, your God is greater. (2 Chronicles 20:15)Some things have to be believed to be seen. (2 Chronicles 20:20)Praise brings God to the battlefield, and God has never lost a battle.Scripture: 2 Chronicles 20:13-23, 2 Chronicles 20:15, 2 Chronicles 20:20, 2 Chronicles 20:25-26Stay connected at https://calvaryfl.com
Pastor John Galloway opens Mark 1:21-28 to show us what happened when Jesus walked into the synagogue at Capernaum and taught with an authority the people had never heard before. When an unclean spirit cried out, Jesus spoke one command and the enemy had to bow. That same authority has been given to you.Pastor John reminds us that our most valuable possession is our knowledge of God, and that spiritual warfare is over what you believe and what you know about your God. Taking territory begins in your mind, and when we truly know Him, we begin to take territory and the enemy loses ground. Darkness only has leverage in your life when it remains hidden, but the God you serve binds what binds you, torments what torments you, and destroys what has destroyed you. Through the power of the name of Jesus, you have been given the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy. What Jesus did in His house, you have the right to do in yours.Scripture: Mark 1:21-28, Luke 10:19, Romans 12:1, 2 Corinthians 10:4-5, Hosea 4:6Stay connected at https://calvaryfl.com

They are not stopping in this valley.Walk through, because the Shepherd is ahead of you.
re doing everything right and things are still going wrong. You may not be able to see Jesus in your storm right now, but do you have any scraps? A marriage still standing. A child still serving God. A situation He already brought you through. Those are not leftovers. Those are proofs.Every fragment says the same thing: He did it before. He can do it again.Scripture: Mark 6:31-52 | Jeremiah 8:22 | John 6:12 | Matthew 14:27
