The power of praise has transformative effects that extend from understanding the Word to prophesying, experiencing deliverance, sharing testimony, and finally expressing genuine praise to God.• Biblical praise means to boast about God, not ourselves, and sometimes requires looking foolish in the eyes of others• David's journey to recover the Ark of the Covenant teaches that we lose our praise when we don't understand God's ways yet receive blessings despite our mistakes• True worship may appear undignified to others, but God sees the heart behind your praise• Your praise needs to come before your breakthrough – it's an act of faith to celebrate in advance• The enemy attacks your praise because he knows its power to transform your situation• Everyone has their own praise expression, whether quiet or demonstrative, but all praise must be authentic• Many people withhold praise because of pride, concern about appearance, or unwillingness to be vulnerable• Supernatural testimonies arise when believers collectively praise God with abandonJoin us in church, as we experience the power of praise together.

The prophetic isn't spooky or weird—it's a powerful tool God has given every believer to change their circumstances through faith-filled words. When we understand biblical prophecy as speaking by divine inspiration, we can transform our valleys of despair into places of resurrection power.• Everyone can operate in the prophetic gift, not just those with the office of prophet• Prophecy serves for edification (building), exhortation (invoking divine help), and comfort (connection)• The valley (difficult places in life) is precisely where prophetic declarations have the most power• Our prophetic authority isn't dependent on our perfection but on our position with God• Words of faith can literally change circumstances when inspired by the Holy Spirit• We must stop "cursing" our future by speaking negatively and instead declare God's perspective• True prophecy requires prayer, faith, and being filled (not just indwelled) with the Holy Spirit• Many believers have salvation but haven't experienced the empowering fullness of the Spirit• The prophetic breakthrough happens when we stop waiting for someone else to speak and open our own mouthsJoin our Monday night prayer call at 8:00 PM.

Pastor Walt delivers a passionate call for believers to rediscover the transformative power of God's Word as the ultimate source of breakthrough, guidance, and spiritual nourishment in their lives.• The Word of God comes to us in five different forms: God's direct speech, personal address, through human lips, written scripture, and Jesus Christ himself• Modern society has reduced the Word to sound bites and application without proper interpretation• Like a tree planted by water, those who meditate on God's Word have strong roots and bear fruit in every season• The enemy tries to steal the Word through lack of understanding, shallow roots, or letting worldly concerns crowd it out• Isaiah 55 extends four invitations: to eat and drink from God's provision, to listen for true life, to seek the Lord while He can be found, and to understand God's higher thoughts• Every need, answer, and breakthrough you seek is already available in the Word• God's Word never returns void but accomplishes everything He intendsIf you've been blessed by today's message, I encourage you to bring your physical Bible to church each week.

Resurrection season calls us to consider the profound meaning of Jesus' sacrifice - He paid for sins He didn't commit, making salvation personal rather than abstract. We don't go to hell because of sin but because we reject the One who thought we were worth saving and paid the price for our sins.• Courage is operating boldly, confidently, and fearlessly in the face of challenges• Six types of courage every believer needs: physical, moral, emotional, social, intellectual, and spiritual• Knowing your identity in Christ is fundamental to operating with courage• Understanding God's timing helps us know when to act and when to wait• Jesus demonstrated courage in returning to Jerusalem despite knowing death awaited• Lazarus' resurrection teaches us about God's power over dead situations in our lives• Unusual, authentic worship positions us for breakthroughs and miracles• God wants to shift things quickly for those willing to be courageous• Sometimes we need just one "Thomas" - someone willing to stand with us through challengesIf you're seeking a breakthrough, don't wait!

Walking in newness of life means experiencing a complete transformation where old things pass away and all things become new through Christ. The baptismal experience represents more than just an event—it symbolizes death to our old self and resurrection into a new way of living.• Becoming a new creature in Christ means developing a different "stride" or way of moving through life• Our number one priority must be pleasing God and not letting anything take our focus off Him• True transformation is evidenced not by church buildings or denominational names, but by what's inside a person's heart• The ministry of reconciliation requires putting away former corrupt conversations and being renewed in spirit• Evidence of spiritual rebirth is shown through love—without love, all spiritual gifts and religious activities amount to nothing• Growing in Christ means putting away childish things and not letting "little things" upset us• The greatest example of love is Christ laying down His life for usStay in the service of the Lord.
