Walking in Love: Making Full Proof of Your Calling

John 21:15-17 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. He saith to him again the second time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou…

Use Your Tongue in Faith for Ultimate Manifestations

As it is written in Galatians 3:2, “This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?” And again in Galatians 3:5: “Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by…

The Discipline of faith guarantees ultimate manifestions.

Ephesians 2:10: "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them" (NKJV). Romans 6:3-4: "Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? Therefore, we were buried with Him through…

Knowing that you are a son of God and a servant of his mysteries

1 John 3:1-2 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know…

The place of victory over pestering challenges

1 Corinthians 10:13 (AMP): "For no temptation (no trial regarded as enticing to sin), [no matter how it comes or where it leads] has overtaken you and laid hold on you that is not common to man [that is, no temptation or trial has come to you that is beyond human resistance and that is…

What it takes to follow (Part Two)

Philippians 2:12 (MSG): "What I'm getting at, friends, is that you should simply keep on doing what you've done from the beginning. When I was living among you, you lived in responsive obedience. Now that I'm separated from you, keep it up. Better yet, redouble your efforts. Be energetic in your life of salvation, reverent…

What It Takes to Follow

As Jesus said in Matthew 7:13-14, "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it."

Overcoming Powerlessness, Faithlessness, and Hopelessness

As Romans 12:11-12 (AMP) encourages us: "Never lag in zeal and in earnest endeavor; be aglow and burning with the Spirit, serving the Lord. Rejoice and exult in hope; be steadfast and patient in suffering and tribulation; be constant in prayer."

Image. Identity. Reality

1 Corinthians 1:24 But to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God. 1 Corinthians 1:30 But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God--and righteousness and sanctification and redemption.

Walking in might

James 5:16-17 says: "Confess to one another your faults, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The earnest, heartfelt, continued prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working]. Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and…

Walking in the Light

"But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have…

Walking wisely

Walking in the fear of God

2 Corinthians 7:1 (NKJV): "Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God."

Savoring the goodness of God (Part Two)

Ephesians 4:28 (AMP): “Let the thief steal no more, but rather let him be industrious, making an honest living with his own hands, so that he may be able to give to those in need.”

Savoring the goodness of God

Romans 1:16-17 says, "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek." The Good News tells us how God makes us right in His sight, accomplished from start to finish by faith.…

Determinants of Spiritual Growth (Part Two)

Determinants of Spiritual Growth

Ephesians 4:11-13 He is the one who gave these gifts to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. Their responsibility is to equip God's people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ, until we come to such unity in our faith and knowledge…

Walking in Victory (Part Two)

Romans 15:4 reminds us, "For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that by our steadfast and patient endurance and the encouragement drawn from the Scriptures we might hold fast to and cherish hope." (AMP)

Walking in Victory

1 John 5:4-5 "For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?".

Honor is a choice

Honor is a choice. It is a creation borne out of deliberate decisions, an art we learn to embody. The honor we carry is crafted by the choices we make. Honor is reciprocal; the systems of honor we establish will eventually honor us in return. The places, relationships, and moments we choose to honor will…

Familiarity: The Enemy of Honor

Psalm 41:9 Even my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted (relied on and was confident), who ate of my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.(AMP)

Honoring the Ministry of Your Pastor

Acts 20:28 reminds us to "take care and be on guard for yourselves and the whole flock over which the Holy Spirit has appointed you bishops and guardians, to shepherd the church of the Lord, which He obtained for Himself with His own blood" (AMP).

Honoring the word of your shepherd

Luke 12:34 "Wherever your treasure is, there your heart and thoughts will also be."

Honor Your Calling and Ministry

The honor lies in waiting on your ministry. Romans 12:7 (KJV) “Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching.”

Ministry is Honor

2 Peter 1:17 "For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: 'This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.'"

Doing ministry: the best way of manifesting grace

2 Corinthians 9:8: "And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work."

Metamorphosis: The Vision, the Mirror, and You

Matthew 17:1-2 recounts, "After six days, Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves; and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light."

Anointed kingdom builders

Luke 12:29-31: "And do not seek what you should eat or what you should drink, nor have an anxious mind. For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that you need these things. But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you.…

Shake off discouragement

Read Philippians 4:6-7: “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

Rising above the weakness of the flesh

Mark 14:32-38: “Then they came to a place which was named Gethsemane; and He said to His disciples, ‘Sit here while I pray.’ And He took Peter, James, and John with Him, and He began to be troubled and deeply distressed. Then He said to them, ‘My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay…

Enjoy the peace of God

Be enlightened in the fellowship of light

As 2 Corinthians 4:6-7 (AMP) explains: “For God, Who said, ‘Let light shine out of darkness,’ has shone in our hearts to give the Light of the knowledge of the majesty and glory of God as it is manifest in the Person and is revealed in the face of Jesus Christ. However, we possess this…

Rooted and Grounded in the Love of Christ

As Ephesians 3:16-17 says, "That He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love..."
