Wednesday, February 5, 2025 Matthew 6:25-26 KJV 25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? 26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? ✨ Daily Declaration ✨
Thursday, February 6, 2025 Romans 9:30-33 What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, attained righteousness, but the righteousness that is by faith; however, Israel, pursuing a law of righteousness, did not arrive at that law. Why? Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as though they could by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone, just as it is written: “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense, And the one who believes in Him will not be put to shame.”
Saturday, February 1, 2025 Colossians 1:25-27 (NCV) I became a servant of the church because God gave me a special work to do that helps you, and that work is to tell fully the message of God. 26 This message is the secret that was hidden from everyone since the beginning of time, but now it is made known to God's holy people. 27 God decided to let his people know this rich and glorious secret which he has for all people. This secret is Christ himself, who is in you. He is our only hope for glory. Daily Declarations: I Declare: Christ in me is the only hope of glory! His presence in my life is my assurance of victory, power, and divine purpose. I Declare: Because Christ lives in me, I walk in His power, His authority, and His glory—boldly fulfilling my God-given assignment. I Declare: Christ is at work in me! He moves in my life according to my faith, and I stand in full expectation of His promises being made manifest. #AMEN #ask #coffeeandchrist #dailydeclaration #faith #fyp #GodsGrace #goodmorning #Grace #HolySpirit #meditation #message #morningmeditationformen #morningprayer #Peace #podcast #PsalmOne #Pray #Prayer #prayerfyp #salvation #SGeoffreyMonts #scripture #SGMonts #ThePeaceofGod
Monday, February 3, 2025 1 Peter 5:8-10 8 Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. So resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brothers and sisters who are in the world. After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.
1 Peter 5:6-7 You younger men, likewise, be subject to your elders; and all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because God is opposed to the proud, but He gives grace to the humble. Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, so that He may exalt you at the proper time, having cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares about you.

Good morning, good morning, good morning! Rise and grind, brothers! It's that time again to get into the Word. Today, we're diving deep into Psalm 27:11 and exploring the powerful theme of letting God teach us His ways and lead us on a well-lit path. In this episode, I share a recent personal experience where, despite the challenges, I could declare "all is well" because I'm rooted in God's Word. We reflect on the importance of having a personal relationship with God—something more than just being active in the church. It's about truly knowing Him, spending time with Him, and letting Him guide our steps. We also discuss the distractions and "noise" that keep us from focusing on God. Whether it's work, family, or even our own thoughts, these things can pull us away from our spiritual path. But today, we're reminded to quiet that noise, carve out time for God, and seek His direction in every area of our lives. Key Scripture: Psalm 27:11 - "Teach me your way, Lord; lead me on a level path because of my enemies." Discussion Points: The necessity of a personal relationship with God beyond just being active in church. The importance of spending daily time with God to learn His ways. How distractions and noise in our lives can prevent us from hearing God's voice. Call to Action: Quiet the noise in your life, whatever that may be—distractions, bad habits, or anything else keeping you from God. Spend intentional, focused time in prayer, seeking God's guidance for your life. Share this episode with a brother who needs to hear this word and encourage him to join you on this journey.

Show Notes: S6 E8 - I Forgive You Date: July 2, 2024 Episode Title: I Forgive You Host: Pastor S. Geoffrey Monts Introduction: Good morning, good morning, good morning. This is the impact man and you know what time it is. It is time to rise and grind. Grab your cup of coffee, grab your device, and let's get into this word. Good morning, brothers. This is Pastor S. Geoffrey Monts, and thank you for being with me this morning on Morning Meditation for Men. Episode Overview: In today's episode, Pastor Monts discusses the profound and often challenging topic of forgiveness. He emphasizes that forgiveness is more about personal healing and less about absolving the offender. He draws lessons from Mark 11 and shares a personal story to illustrate the importance of letting go of resentment for spiritual growth and well-being. Key Takeaways: Forgiveness is for Personal Healing: Forgiveness allows you to heal and move on with your life, rather than holding on to resentment. Faith and Forgiveness: Just as Jesus cursed the fig tree and it withered, our words and beliefs have power. Holding onto unforgiveness can block our blessings. Power of Words: Life and death are in the power of the tongue, and we will eat the fruit of our words. Negative declarations can hinder our spiritual progress. Manifestation through God's Word: True manifestation comes from calling upon God's promises rather than relying on our efforts. Personal Accountability: Acknowledge and release any lingering resentments to fully embrace the life that Christ has planned for you. Living a Prosperous Life: Prosperity in life encompasses health, relationships, and overall well-being, not just financial success. Spiritual Clout: Seek to live a life that pleases God, gaining His favor and trust, rather than seeking approval from others. Importance of Forgiveness in Prayer: Forgiveness is essential when praying, as it aligns us with God's will and opens us up to His blessings. Scripture References: Mark 11:20-26 - The lesson of the withered fig tree and the importance of faith and forgiveness. Jeremiah 29:11 - God's plans for our prosperity and future. Ephesians 4:32 - Encouragement to be kind, tender-hearted, and forgiving as God in Christ forgave us. Final Thought: Forgiveness is a crucial step in your spiritual journey. It allows you to release the burdens that hinder your relationship with God and others. By forgiving, you unlock the fullness of God's blessings and experience true spiritual freedom and prosperity. Take inventory of your heart, forgive those who have wronged you, and live in the abundant life that Christ offers. Closing Prayer: Father, I have been in a rough place and I haven't forgiven, and I'm sorry. Thank you for not taking my life and letting me go down into the pit because of my lack of forgiveness. Now, God, there are going to be some brothers and some sisters who may listen to this who are in a place where they're stuck in their life. God, bring to my remembrance in my sabbatical time, in my quiet times during the day, in my prayer time, if there's anything else that I've held on to that's keeping me from receiving the fullness of you. Help me to release it. I forgive that person for what they've done, and I believe, God, that you're opening up doors and portals and windows for me so that I can continue to live and continue to grow. I pray for these brothers and sisters. I pray for the anointing to let it go, to live a life where they can let it go and then they can experience your fullness. I bless you, I magnify you, and I glorify you for what you're doing in their lives right now. In Jesus' mighty name, amen, amen, and amen. Conclusion: Thank you for joining me today. This is Pastor S. Jeffrey Monts, and I hope you have a blessed day. Peace. I'm out of here. Remember: Forgiveness is a powerful tool for your personal and spiritual growth. Embrace it, live it, and experience the fullness of God's blessings. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lovelaughlegacy/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lovelaughlegacy/support

Title: Psalm 91: A Pentatonic Promise Host: Pastor S. Geoffrey Monts Introduction: Good morning, good morning, good morning. This is the Impact Man, and you know what time it is. It is time to rise and grind. Grab your cup of coffee, grab your device, and let's get into this word. Today, we are diving into Psalm 91 and uncovering the powerful promises of God. Episode Summary: In this episode of Morning Meditation for Men, Pastor S Geoffrey Monts takes us through Psalm 91, emphasizing the importance of positioning ourselves in God's presence and His precious promises. Pastor Monts breaks down Psalm 91 into four key "notes"—position, protection, provision, and power—and reveals the fifth note: God's divine PROMISE. This promise assures us that when we call on Him, He will answer, show up, deliver us, and honor us. Pastor Monts enriches the discussion with additional scripture references and a powerful prayer to wrap up the session. Key Takeaways: Position: He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will find rest and security (Psalm 91:1).

Promise: God promises to answer, be with us in trouble, deliver, and honor us (Psalm 91:15-16). Biblical Scriptures: Psalm 91 Isaiah 43:2-3 John 14:1-3 Zephaniah 3:17 1 John 1:9 Jeremiah 29:11 Summarized Thought: In the midst of life's challenges, God's promises are steadfast.

Good morning, good morning, good morning. This is the Impact Man, and you know what time it is. It's time to rise and grind. So go ahead, grab your cup of coffee, grab your device, and let's get into this word. Title: A Song in 4-Part Harmony: PowerEpisode: Season 6, Episode 5Host: Pastor S. Geoffrey Monts Pastor S. Geoffrey Monts dives into Psalm 91 in today's episode, specifically focusing on verse 13. This powerful scripture promises us authority over our challenges, symbolized by the lion and the adder. As we explore this fourth note in our four-part harmony series, we reflect on our God-given power and authority. Positioning: Being in the right place for God to use you. Protection: God's promise of safety and security in His arms. Provision: God's assurance of taking care of His own. Power: The authority given to us to tread upon challenges and adversities. Authority in the Earth Realm: Drawing from Genesis, we have dominion and authority over the earth, symbolized by our ability to tread on the lion and the adder. Power of the Tongue: Proverbs 18:21 emphasizes the impact of our words. Speaking life and positivity aligns with God's word and manifests in our lives. Spiritual Warfare: Luke 10:19 and Psalm 91:13 remind us of our power over the enemy and our ability to overcome challenges through faith. Submitting to God: James 4:7 outlines the steps to exercise our authority by first submitting to God and then resisting the devil. Greater is He: 1 John 4:4 reinforces that the Holy Spirit within us is greater than any external force. Psalm 91:13: "Thou shalt tread upon the lion and the adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet." Proverbs 18:21: "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof." Luke 10:19: "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you." Isaiah 54:17: "No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn." James 4:7: "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." 1 John 4:4: "Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world." Jeremiah 29:11: "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end." Romans 10:9: "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." Our journey in Psalm 91 reveals the layers of God's promises—from positioning and protection to provision and power. As we walk in the authority given to us by God, let us submit to His will, speak life, and stand firm against the enemy, knowing that greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world. Let's Pray Together: Father, we honor you today. We magnify you for your protection, provision, and power. Help us to submit our lives to you and stand firm in your word, knowing that the enemy will flee from us. We ask for your grace to cover us and guide us in every aspect of our lives. In Jesus' name, Amen. Thank you for joining me this morning on Morning Meditation for Men. This is Pastor S. Geoffrey Monts. Remember, walk in your God-given power and authority. Amen, amen, and amen. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lovelaughlegacy/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lovelaughlegacy/support

PSALM 34:1-7 1 I will always bless the Lord: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. 2 My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. 3 O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together. 4 I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. 5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed. 6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. 7 The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. Good Morning, good morning, good morning! I am tired, and I was just about to call it to quit. Yup, I was going to give it all up. Preaching, Studying, Praying, Churching, Pastoring. I am exhausted. It seems like nothing is clicking. Just tired. Yesterday I was in the yard cleaning some fallen leaves and listing to some music and this scripture was being sung: This poor man cried to the Lord and the Lord heard him and saved him from all his trouble! That was all it took for me to renege on my quit! Standing in the yard with that blower going and music in my ear I heard Holy Spirit say, "You have not talked to me about any of this. Sean, the problem is that you are trying to handle all of this on your own. You are not consulting with me about any of the stuff you are dealing with." I said to Holy Spirit, I am just frustrated, I am just tired. He told me, "The only way that you will find rest is to come to me. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me [following Me as My disciple], for I am gentle and humble in heart, and YOU WILL FIND REST (renewal, blessed quiet) FOR YOUR SOULS." As you go throughout your day today remember these things. Number one, Holy Spirit is here for you. He is here to help you out of all your troubles. Number two, your salvation, your freedom, your deliverance is just one scream away! Father God, creator of all, and most importantly creator of us we ask that you will show us how to take our burdens, our cares, and our concerns to you and really leave them with you. Thank you in advance for what you are doing in our lives. Thank you for hearing our individual screams! And, Abba, thank you for saving us from ourselves! 1 Peter 5:6-8 6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God [set aside self-righteous pride], so that He may exalt you [to a place of honor in His service] at the appropriate time, 7 casting all your cares [all your anxieties, all your worries, and all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares about you [with deepest affection, and watches over you very carefully]. 8 Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], and be alert and cautious at all times. That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/support
VULNERABLE TO VICTORY We were POWERLESS to alter our circumstance Jesus became the PROPITIATION for our sin! He stood in the gap for us because we could not. Jesus' blood PARDONED us from the stain of sin, guilt, and shame! Hallelujah! Because of His blood and his sacrifice all charges were dropped against us! GRACE! The PRICELESS GIFT that was given to us! Thank you God for your gift of GRACE! But the free gift [of God] is not like the trespass [because the gift of grace overwhelms the fall of man]. For if many died by one man's trespass [Adam's sin], much more [abundantly] did God's grace and the gift [that comes] by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, overflow to [benefit] the many.

It's In the Promise: Peace with God Romans 5:1-5 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we also have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we celebrate in hope of the glory of God. And not only this, but we also celebrate in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us. How do you obtain PEACE with God? First, you need to understand what PEACE is. Peace is a state of tranquility, exempt from the rage and havoc of war. It is security, safety, prosperity, and contentedness. When we have Jesus Christ in our life we operate in peace. This however does not mean that there will be an absence of conflict. It simply means that you will not be affected by the circumstances going on around you. With a quick unconcerned look at the lead scripture, we see that the Apostle Paul reminds us of the celebratory stance that we should take when life's issues, concerns, and challenges come upon us. He outlines that with every tribulation we grow. It sort of reminds me of the childhood song that I would sing, “We are climbing Jacob's ladder, every rung goes higher and higher.” When we decide to grow in our relationship we are constantly bettering ourselves. So you see it is in the promise, that we have peace with God. Pray: God, I am well aware that life will give challenges and question our peace. But today God we are glad to declare that because of your word, because of our faith in you, and in your word, we have peace with God. Thank you for being a God who can never ever lie. Thank you for your Grace. Thank you for tribulation, perseverance, hope, and love, which ultimately bring about the Peace of God. Amen, Amen and Amen!

2 Peter 1:1-15 NASB To those who have received a faith of the same [b]kind as ours, [c]by the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus [d]our Lord, 3 for His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us [e]by His own glory and [f]excellence. 4 Through [g]these He has granted to us His precious and magnificent promises, so that by them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world on account of lust. 5 Now for this very reason also, applying all diligence, in your faith supply moral [h]excellence, and in your moral excellence, knowledge, 6 and in your knowledge, self-control, and in your self-control, perseverance, and in your perseverance, godliness, 7 and in your godliness, brotherly kindness, and in your brotherly kindness, love. 8 For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they do not make you useless nor unproductive in the true knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 For the one who lacks these qualities is blind or short-sighted, having forgotten his purification from his former sins. 10 Therefore, brothers and sisters, be all the more diligent to make certain about His calling and choice of you; for as long as you practice these things, you will never stumble; 11 for in this way the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be abundantly supplied to you. 12 Therefore, I will always be ready to remind you of these things, even though you already know them and have been established in the truth which is present with you. 13 I consider it right, as long as I am in this earthly [i]dwelling, to stir you up by way of reminder, 14 knowing that the laying aside of my earthly dwelling is imminent, as also our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me. 15 And I will also be diligent that at any time after my departure you will be able to call these things to mind. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/support

One of the misconceptions about Christianity is that you must change who you are to become part of the family of God; after all that is what being a Christian is, being part of God's family. More than you changing, God is looking for your belief in him and what he says. Abram (The Father is Exalted) was a man God called to go. "Go Where," you ask? Just go. So what did he do, he went, at 75 years old he went in his old age when we would call our life almost over he listened and believed God, and his belief was counted unto him as righteousness. God accepted Abram just the way he was. It was after his encounter with the almighty God that Abram's name was changed to Abraham (The Father of many nations). When you have an encounter with God he will step in and change your life. He will give you purpose, promise, and a plan. But you must BELIEVE in order to be counted righteous. No matter how shattered you think your life may be, God loves you and he wants you to be part of his family, just the way you are. Do not try and change, but allow Holy Spirit to take residence in your life and give you the strength to make the changes he wants to make in you. You have a purpose brother, and God has a plan for you. Live your life the full today and believe in God! S Geoffrey Monts Thank you for being part of the #RiseAndGrindCrew! I am glad you are here.

I am a massive fan of Game of Thrones an HBO series about power struggles between kingdoms in a mythical time and realm. In one episode a woman who was evil at her core and would stop at nothing to be the leader of the kingdom was led down a street naked and shamed for her crimes and misdeeds according to the religious sect within the kingdom. As she walked the crowd threw rotten food and cried “SHAME, SHAME, SHAME!” Needless to say, it was a powerful message of how religion can derail from its core values of love, patience, hope, and peace. This was all done to create a feeling of humiliation for this woman, it was to create a loss of respect for someone who at one time was held in high esteem. It was used to reprove her of her behavior. In the scripture today Paul, an Apostle of the early Church, makes this statement; “I am no longer asked of the gospel of Jesus Christ, it the good news, the Grace of God is the power of salvation to everyone who believes. For me, this indicates that Paul felt shame about preaching the message at one time. Remember, Paul was a convert. He initially preached against the gospel message and persecuted the men and women who believed. It was not until he had an experience with Jesus that he realized that he was on a losing side. The scriptures give us no indication of how long it took for Paul to be able to preach the gospel without being ashamed, however, it happened. Here is the promise: this Grace that we preach, this Gospel that we teach and live and share is the power of salvation. This salvation is not just for ourselves, it is for the entire world! Forever many, humans will believe. It is not our promise, nor our POWER to divide God's salvation to whom we want to. It is HIS to give freely to all who believe. I am reminded of the scripture that says while we were all in our sin God showed us (humans) great mercy and send his Son, Christ to die for us in our place. (Romans 5:8) John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. Romans 4:25 He was derived over to death for our trespasses and was raised to life for our justification. Romans 8:32 He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will he not also, along with Him, freely give us all things? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/support
It's In The Promise I Am Alive Season 5 Episode 10 Ephesians 2: 4-10 But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them. For by Grace we have been saved! Seven of the most powerful words ever penned. Today I shout with a loud and vibrant voice Thank You Jesus for GRACE! If it were not for Grace, I would not be alive today. I would have died in my sin and I would have died in my flesh, but because the Grace of God was there to pull me out when I did not know that I was down in the midst of a great pit, I am alive today! Hallelujah thank you Jesus! If it sounds like I am excited it is because I am. Apostle Paul reminds us of the person, the purpose and the power of Grace. Because of Grace we have been made to come alive with Christ. What does this mean for us? It means that we walk, talk, operate, and navigate with the power and presence of Christ in our life. As you navigate through you life remember that YOU are seated in heavenly places with Jesus Christ! Always remember who you are and in whom you believe. Because of the power of your belief you are save by GRACE. Thank you for being part of the #RiseAndGrindCrew! I am glad you are here.

Ezekiel 37:1-10 The hand of the Lord was upon me, and He brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord and set me down in the middle of the valley; and it was full of bones. 2 He caused me to pass among them round about, and behold, there were very many on the surface of the valley; and lo, they were very dry. 3 He said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” And I answered, “O Lord God, You know.” 4 Again He said to me, “Prophesy over these bones and say to them, ‘O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.' 5 Thus says the Lord God to these bones, ‘Behold, I will cause breath to enter you that you may come to life. 6 I will put sinews on you, make flesh grow back on you, cover you with skin and put breath in you that you may come alive; and you will know that I am the Lord.'” 7 So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, a rattling; and the bones came together, bone to its bone. 8 And I looked, and behold, sinews were on them, and flesh grew and skin covered them; but there was no breath in them. 9 Then He said to me, “Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these slain, that they come to life.”'” 10 So I prophesied as He commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they came to life and stood on their feet, an exceedingly great army. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/support
IT'S IN THE PROMISE THE PROMISE OF LIFE SEASON 5 EPISODE 8 ROMANS 8:9-11 (NASB) However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him. If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is [d]alive because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies [e]through His Spirit who dwells in you. Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. When we live on this earth we all know that death is coming. No doubt no matter how young, we have all been touched by death in some fashion. The promise of God is that when we walk with him there is life. Life, real and genuine, active and vigorous, devoted to God, blessed; life one who is animated and full of vitality. The Bible teaches “The thief comes only to steal kill and destroy, but I have come to give life and that more abundantly.” You and me, we have life if we are in Christ Jesus. Here is the great thing about this promise it not only promises us life in the earth realm, but it also promises life eternal. Some days when I am in my thinking stages I ask myself, what's it all for? I am reminded that while living in this sphere with vitality and vigor I have a promise. I have been promised a building, a home, a body, an eternity that has not been made with the hands of man, but by God. Here are the points brothers, live for today and know that your tomorrow has been taken care of. There is a promise of life now and in the afterlife. I have a life and existence filled with the promise of the presence of God. Resting and residing in a place of praise and worship eternally. So do not get frustrated with your current home. We live on purpose on purpose, for God's plan. It will be alright! 2 Corinthians 5:1-5 Galatians 2:20 John 10:10 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/support

It's In The Promise: The Promise of Power John 14:15-18 “If you love me, obey me; and I will ask the Father and he will give you another Comforter, and he will never leave you. He is the Holy Spirit, the Spirit who leads into all truth. The world at large cannot receive him, for it isn't looking for him and doesn't recognize him. But you do, for he lives with you now and someday shall be in you. No, I will not abandon you or leave you as orphans in the storm—I will come to you. In the book of John Jesus is having a discussion with his disciples, more specifically the inner circle of his disciples; understand that Jesus traveled with a whole lot of people, but not everyone was allowed in the inner circle. Jesus was speaking of his end. His ultimate demise at the hands of those who he came to save. It is ironic that we can be crucified by people who we will ultimately save. Here is the lesson in that. Know your assignment and stay the course. Never let anyone or anything knock you off your course. If you get tired, rest, if you get weary regroup, but for the salvation of those to who you have been assigned NEVER QUIT! So here is Jesus telling his disciples, who he has come to love and they have come to love, honor, and respect this wise young man. Holy Spirit just dropped this in my spirit. Many who were disciples of Jesus were older than him. Remember he was only 30 years old when his ministry started and only 33 when it was over. So, Jesus, Thomas, and Philip are going back and forth about Jesus leaving and they don't totally understand what was going to happen when he left. You see the disciples looked to Jesus as a savior of the body only and not the spirit and the soul. It was their understanding that Jesus was going to raise up an army of like-minded people and overthrow the government and restore Israel to its former glory. Here is the takeaway, Jesus did not come into our lives to restore us to OUR former glory, but He came into our lives to show us HIS Glory! Because the reality is that without Jesus in our lives we were mere shells of flesh, bone, and sinew with no life in it. Our lives could have been compared to the Valley of Dry Bones that the prophet Ezekiel spoke of, “A great company of bones, and they were very dry and lifeless.” Without Christ, we would be nothing but dry lifeless bones. Jesus came that we might have life and have it more abundantly. (John 10:10) Jesus came so we can do greater works than the works that he had done. (John 14:12) What is the greater work? It is the work of evangelism, it is the work of spreading the gospel of Jesus throughout the world, the greater work of sharing the gospel of Grace, displaying the Love of Jesus. This is the greater work. Jesus knew that he had to die. He knew that he was in an earthly body and he had to die. If was at age 33 for age 133 he knew that eventually, his earthly body would have to cease to exist. Here is the JOY is Jesus, he said to his disciples and says to us today, I will pray to the father that he will send you a helper, a comforter, someone who will stand alongside you, one who will guide you throughout the various phases and stages of your life. In Greek the word Comforter is transliterated as: Called to one's aid, a pleader, counsel for the defense, legal assistant, an advocate. In the widest sense, a helper, aider, or assistant. The Holy Spirit is destined to take the place of Christ with the apostles to lead them into a deep er knowledge of the gospel truth, and give the divine strength needed to enable them to undo trials and persecutions on behalf of the divine kingdom. If you don't get anything else from our time today, get this: YOU ARE NEVER LEFT ALONE! God is with you He is with you in your trials, he is with you in your testing and He is with you in your triumphs. You are never left alone. It's in the promise. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/support
IT'S IN THE PROMISE God is Faithful DEUTERONOMY 7:7-11 “The Lord did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any of the peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples, but because the Lord loved you and kept the oath which He swore to your forefathers, the Lord brought you out by a mighty hand and redeemed you from the house of slavery, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Know therefore that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God, who keeps His covenant and His lovingkindness to a thousandth generation with those who love Him and keep His commandments; but repays those who hate Him to their faces, to destroy them; He will not delay with him who hates Him, He will repay him to his face. Therefore, you shall keep the commandment and the statutes and judgments I am commanding you today to do them. You are chosen! In a world of people, in a universe of species God, the everlasting maker of the heavens and the earth chooses you. We often overlook the fact that with the millions of humans on the earth God looked into t sea of us and choose us for his handiwork. The bible says “We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them”. You have been chosen and you are special to God! You are redeemed! Redemption is the process of being vindicated, atoned for, retrieved exchanged. God wants you to know that he is The Faithful God who has redeemed you. The Apostle Paul's letter to the Roman church reminds us, “God showed his love to us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us” Our God is faithful! He pulled us up out of the quicksand of existence and placed our feed on a solid foundation and gave us power and purpose. The prophet Isaiah reminds us, “God you are my God, I will exalt you; I will praise your name, for you have done wonderful things, plans formed of old, faithful and sure.” Ephesians 2:10 Romans 5:8 Isaiah 25:1 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lovelaughlegacy/support

A Psalm of David. 37 Do not fret because of evildoers, Be not envious toward wrongdoers. 2 For they will wither quickly like the grass And fade like the green herb. 3 Trust in the Lord and do good; Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. 4 Delight yourself in the Lord; And He will give you the desires of your heart. 5 Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, and He will do it. Instead of worrying about what others are doing, I encourage you today to focus on your purpose and focus on your process. When we focus on what God is asking us to do we eliminate the need to compare our progress with others. The psalmist reminds us not to focus on evildoers because, with all that gain and the traction they have, it will soon wither like the grass and die like a weed. This is just a quick reminder to keep your past in the rearview mirror of life and focus on what is in front of you. Thank you for being part of the #RiseAndGrindCrew! I am glad you are here.

2 Chronicles 7:12-15 12 Then the Lord appeared to Solomon at night and said to him, “I have heard your prayer and have chosen this place for Myself as a house of sacrifice. 13 If I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among My people, 14 and My people [d]who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 15 Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the [e]prayer offered in this place. 16 For now I have chosen and consecrated this house that My name may be there forever, and My eyes and My heart will be there perpetually. It is inevitable that we are going to have issues, concerns, problems, and even confusion on our journey through the earth realm. Let's keep it 100, the Bible says “Man born of woman is of few days and full of trouble. He springs up like a flower and withers away; like a fleeting shadow, he does not endure.” So you and I dealing with some life issues that we do not care to deal with is par for the course. Here is where the power and promise of God show up in our trouble. In today's scripture passage, it says if I shut up the heavens if I command locust If I send pestilence, plagues or pandemics and our response are right. There will be a change. It is the response of the head and heart that God is looking for in this life that we live. He has promised to keep you and sustain you. “Cast your burden to the Lord and he will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken” God requires Humility, Honest Conversation, and Heartfelt Repentance. 2 Chronicles 7:12-15; Job 14:1-2; Psalms 55:22 Thank you for being part of the #RiseAndGrindCrew!

Jeremiah 31:1-3 (NASB) “At that time,” declares the Lord, “I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be My people.” Thus says the Lord, “The people who survived the sword Found grace in the wilderness— Israel when it went to find its rest.” The Lord appeared to him from afar, saying, “I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore I have drawn you with lovingkindness. Have you ever been in a place in between? Between here and there, between yea and nay, between the proverbial rock and a hard place? I think we have all found ourselves here at one time or another. Today I want to encourage you that even in this place in the wilderness, God will show up with a word that will restore, rebuild and resurrect life. On the journey, it is easy to feel like you have been betrayed and belittled by people, and circumstances but you have a refuge and a hope in our God! Brother, you are a champion! You have made it through so much more than you give yourself credit for. You have been lied on, scandalized, forgotten, and looked over to name a few. Today God instructed me to remind you that you SURVIVED the sword. You not only won the battle, but you also won the war. The war over self-doubt, destructive thinking, pornography, poor money management, anger, bitterness, and even unbelief. You have won the war. You say to yourself “No I did not!” The fact that you are standing is enough to know that you have what it takes to win, what it takes to declare victory over your life and the life of everyone in your sphere of influence. Remember the word of God, “No weapon formed against you will prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord and their right standing is of me, say the Lord. Isaiah 54:17 Brother, because you won the war you have found GRACE to keep you! In the darkest place of your existence, GRACE shows up to inform you that you are a champion and will be restored, rebuilt, and resurrected. No matter what goes on in your life remember that God has drawn you to him, you have the purpose and power to accomplish everything that God has for you to complete. Nehemiah saw the broken down walls of Jerusalem and knew within his heart that something had to be done about it. He did not have the authority or the resources to pull off such a big project. Nehemiah prayed and went to the King of the land to ask for what he needed to complete the job. Because of who Nehemiah was and because of his unwavering faith God put the thought into the King's heart to give him whatever he needed to complete the work. God has given you everything you need to complete the work. Don't give up! You survived the wilderness, you found GRACE and you are being rebuilt!
