Unity through diversity. Unlocking God's plan through his tribes.
Many societies and cultures have had a code for the warrior. Whether it be the Samurai of Japan, the Spartans of Greece or the Seal Code of the Navy Seals, they all lived by an ethos in life and in the battlefield.In our lives, the war is won by Christ, but battles still rage. What are the essential aspects of our battle code in the Spirit? What are our battle plans for the spiritual war which we may find ourselves?“When you go out to battle against your enemies, and see horses and chariots and people more numerous than you, do not be afraid of them; for the Lord your God is with you, who brought you up from the land of Egypt.” Deuteronomy 20:1
Scripture is filled with “misfits”. It is actually quite refreshing. The Father chose orphans, eccentrics, and dreamers all throughout the Older Testament. The Son chose tax collectors, harlots, and zealots and made them men and women with eyes like flint to expand the Gospel. Yet, today, many feel the pressure to conform to a cultural standard when engaging in church community, and also when engaging the lost in the world. We know many things for certain. Jesus often calls the unordinary for His purposes. Sometimes, He calls the ordinary. Regardless of which type of people He calls; we are destined to be “square pegs in a world of round holes.” “But because my servant Caleb has a different spirit and follows me wholeheartedly, I will bring him into the land he went to, and his descendants will inherit it.” Numbers 14:24
This week we welcome Jose Diaz back teaching at BHA! Jesus never intended His Church to be a machine based organization but rather an organic, living organism that is apostolic in nature. We will look at several passages in the New Testament that give us insight into the blueprint that Jesus gave us for what and who is His Church. “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth.” Acts 1:8
Join us Sunday as Jonathan Pasquale brings the message. “You will be my witness.”Hebrews 12, Acts 2, Stephen, Paul, Peter… The list is incredible when you think of those “witnesses” who have gone before us. In this hour, I'm reminded of Reinhard Bonnke's words: “Lord, teach me to mind what matters in the end.”I believe there's a call being given to the local church—a call that is both serious and exciting, powerful and reckless, beyond our deepest comprehension yet still within reach. I believe that call is to be a witness. You may not be an evangelist, but there is a cry from Heaven for witnesses to rise in this hour. I want to explore what it means to be a witness and let the true definition of what Christ expected of us be a sobering filter through which we see our lives.
God commanded Israel to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles. It is to be a reminder that the Lord delivered them from the Land of Egypt, that they were led by a pillar of fire in the wilderness, and were brought to the Promised Land.How does this biblical feast relate to the modern Believer of Jesus? This week, Pastor David will teach on the meaning of this Feast for modern times.“In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.” John 7:37
Listen as we host Paul, a beloved guest from Israel. He speaks of many things. The importance of allowing healthy emotions and sharing in the fellowship of Jesus Sufferings. You will be blessed :)
n the 15th chapter of the Gospel of Luke Jesus taught using a story familiar to many of us. It's been dubbed “The Parable of the Prodigal Son” but what if there was a different way to understand this familiar story. What can we glean from the characters in this parable to see the lost return and the dead come alive? Let us examine this scripture and reason together with God. That He may teach a more excellent way to see our loved ones return to the Lord. “For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found…” - Luke 15:24
Days of Awe are fully upon us. The sound of shofars call Israel to repentance and the Day of Atonement occurs for Ancient Israel. The High Priest enters the Holy of Holies, the blood is shed.How do these two biblical holidays relate to New Testament Believers today? How does this relate to an election season in a Constitutional Republic?This Sunday, Pastor David will relate the Biblical Feasts of Yom Teruah and Yom Kippur to what the Lord is saying to His Bride in America in 2024.Romans 13:1: "Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God" See less
What happens?When a ministry grows?When there are healings?When there is a movement in the Spirit?When there is new found notoriety?The answer must be Jesus. It is all too common to witness people and ministries take their eyes off of Jesus and place them on ministry, the numbers, or even great signs and wonders.All of history points to Him & The Heavenly Hosts declare His greatness.“Worthy is the Lamb who was slainTo receive power and riches and wisdom,And strength and honor and glory and blessing!” Revelation 5: 12 See less
“Teshuvah” a Hebrew word that means ‘to return'. The 40 day season we are currently in (ending with Yom Kippur, October 12th) is traditionally thought of as a ‘season of Teshuvah'. “Come, let us return to the Lord. He has torn us to pieces but he will heal us; he has injured us but he will bind up our wounds. 2 After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, that we may live in his presence. - Hosea 6:1-2 Bristol Hope Assembly link to giving page: https://bristolhope.com/give/
The Lord has created seasons in His creation. What does this teach us about our lives and growth in Him? Jesus went through life in a journey of seasons. He was a child, became an adolescent.He even grew in favor before God and man. Let us look to His life and the paradigm of seasons to better understand and live our Christian Walk. "For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to throw away; a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace" (Ecclesiastes 3:1-8).

The power of generational impartation and growth is essential. Scripture is clear on the potential for cursing or blessing the next generation. This week, Pastor David will discuss the role and importance of multigenerational connectivity in the Gospel, the receiving of blessings from our fathers and mothers, and the importance of the involvement in the next generation.“Then Jacob called for his sons and said: “Gather around so I can tell you what will happen to you in days to come. “Assemble and listen, sons of Jacob; listen to your father Israel.”” Genesis 49:1-2 Bristol Hope Assembly link to giving page: https://bristolhope.com/give/
God made the heavens and the earth and He said it was good. God made man and the Sabbath and He said it was very good.In the days we are living in, the world attempts to make us feel that everything we have, everything we do, is simply not good enough. It is this spirit which robs the Believer from experiencing the fullness of the Joy of the Lord.This Sunday, Pastor David will teach on how we guard ourselves from the spirit of ungratefulness and live in the Joy of the Lord.“Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.” Genesis 1:31 See less Bristol Hope Assembly link to giving page: https://bristolhope.com/give/
A radical view: One Priest, Jesus, the Son of God. No longer a separation. No longer the need for any High Priest outside of Jesus.What does this mean in a biblical context? What does this say about a New Testament Believer?This Sunday, Pastor David will teach on the roles of the priestly class in scripture, how this ancient role was and is fulfilled through Jesus, and how we now participate in the Spirit.“Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”Hebrews 4:14-16 Bristol Hope Assembly link to giving page: https://bristolhope.com/give/
Editor's Note: This is an extended cut of Sunday service; we experienced a miraculous time of worship after the sermon where a woman was healed of tumors on her spine. if you would like to listen to the whole service check out out YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/cPrIEGl2aW4 This week, Pastor David continues with his discussion on Psalms 1 relating it to “abiding in the vine” of John 15. The trees which abide by the living water have a powerful story and illustration of the power of the Gospel and in taking the Land of Promise! “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.” John 15:1 Bristol Hope Assembly link to giving page: https://bristolhope.com/give/
