Sunday Teaching: 7.19.26 Teaching by: Jeromy Collins

Pastor Jarrod Walls challenges believers to move beyond simply attending church or striving harder and instead learn what it truly means to abide in Christ. Through John 15, he explores the freedom that comes through complete surrender, daily obedience to the Holy Spirit, and trusting God in every area of life. This message is a reminder that spiritual fruit isn't produced by performance—it's the result of remaining connected to Jesus.If you've been feeling spiritually exhausted, striving to earn God's approval, or wondering what it means to walk closely with Christ, this sermon points back to the cross and the invitation to surrender everything to the One who gave everything for us.

Dr. Ryan Rush | John 15:1-8 

The Apostle John urges us to abide in the truth about Christ in a world that is passing and full of spiritual danger, with many "antichrists" and false teachers denying who Jesus really is. To abide in Christ is to remain in the truth about Him, resist lies that distort His person and work, and continue in fellowship with the Father and the Son so that we may have confidence at His coming. We must test all teaching by Scripture, cling to the biblical Christ, and live in daily dependence on Him.

Purpose Statement: Have you ever heard on the radio or tv announcer go on and on and on about an incredible deal? And the last ten seconds of a commercial he talks faster than what you can hear? He says the conditions which you can't understand. You might not buy the product if you heard. That's what the devil does with sin. The devil makes sin alluring and convincing us to do something that we don't want to do. We become slaves to sin. Sin never delivers us from its grip to freedom. Do we have room in our hearts for the Lord? How does this Scripture relate to the parable of the soils? Does the Word of God take root in our hearts? Freedom is found in Christ!

Do the ordinary tasks of my day actually matter to God?You're doing all of it — the meals, the laundry, the emails, the driving, the remembering. And somewhere in the middle of it a question surfaces. Does any of this actually matter? This episode is about what happens when we move through our lives productive but not present, and what abiding in the ordinary actually looks like.Through the story of Brother Lawrence and the theology of Andrew Murray's The True Vine, this episode reframes the mundane as the very place God is forming you. The laundry isn't the obstacle to your spiritual life. It is your spiritual life.In This Episode•Why productivity without presence leaves us spiritually exhausted•How Brother Lawrence practiced God's presence in unglamorous ordinary work•What Psalm 16 teaches us about security and presence in our assigned portion•How Murray reframes pruning as God's precision formation in everyday life•The three questions that help you abide in the ordinary instead of just endure itKey Takeaways•The ordinary moments of your day are not the obstacle to your spiritual life — they are your spiritual life•Abiding is a connection you maintain in the middle of the doing, not a feeling you chase•The laundry is the pruning — God is actively forming you in the mundane moments•The fruit grows while you remain connected to the vine — not when you finally finish the listSeries NoteEpisode three of the Simply Remain series, which began on episode 156.Keywords•Abiding in God in everyday life•Christian women and spiritual exhaustion•Finding God in the ordinary•Spiritual formation in daily routines•John 15 abiding and fruit•Andrew Murray The True VineIf you want to take this work and apply it, visit myhappyvault.com.

July 17, 2026 Daily Devotional: “Abiding is an Action Word”John 15:10 ​ "If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commands and remain in his love." ​We often treat love like weather—something that happens to us, shifting from sunny to overcast without our consent. We "fall" into it, drift out of it, or feel it cool down. But when Jesus talks about love in John 15, he uses the word remain or abide, It's not a passive mood; it's a physical address. It's a choice of where you set up camp. And in verse 10, Jesus strips away any vague, emotional mysticism about how to stay there: "If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love." There is a beautiful, grounding clarity here. Jesus connects the highest spiritual reality—living enveloped in the love of God—with practical, everyday alignment. He isn'tsetting up a transactional system where you "earn" his love through perfect performance. Rather, he is describing how relationship works. Obedience isn't the price of admission; it's the pipeline. ​Think of it like a house. The roof protects you from the storm, but if you choose to walk out the front door and stand in the rain, you get wet. The house didn't stop existing, and its protection didn't change—you just changed your position relative to it. When we ignore Christ's commands, we aren't causing him to stop loving us; we are choosing to step outside the shelter of that love. We step into anxiety, self-reliance, and friction. ​Jesus then points to his own life as the ultimate proof of concept: "just as I have kept my Father's commands and remain in his love." The perfect intimacy Jesus shared with the Father wasn't an accident of divinity; it wasforged in steady, active alignment with the Father's will. ​If you want to feel the warmth of the fire, you have to stay close to the heat. Today, remaining in his love doesn't require a massive emotional breakthrough.It looks like a series of small, intentional choices to trust his design over your impulses. At its core, this verse explains how we maintain active, vibrant intimacy with God. It means that obedience is the practical expression of love. We do not obey to get God to love us; we obey because we are already loved, and we want to live in the center of that love. ​In what area of your life right now does obedience feel like a restriction rather than a protection? What would it look like to reframe that command as a way to "remain in his love"? Jesus emphasizes that he did nothing apart from the Father. Where are you currently trying to operate on your own strength instead of abiding?

Abiding in Christ will result in confidence at His coming.

In this episode, we continue our book study on Friendship in the Lord and reflect on what it means to be truly known, deeply loved, and fully at home with another. We talk about why we must first learn to abide in the love of God, how appreciation helps others become who they were created to be, and what it looks like to grow in friendship over time. Whether friendship feels life-giving or challenging in this season of your life, we invite you to bring every desire, wound, and longing before the Lord, who first calls you His friend.    Announcement: You can buy your copy of Friendship in the Lord from Ave Maria Press (or Amazon).   Journal Questions: How is the Lord inviting me to cultivate deeper community where I live? Where in my life am I trying to love others without being in communion with God? Am I truly allowing the love of Christ to come out within a community? Am I at home with the Lord? How have I been possessive of my relationships within my community? When have I experienced belonging within community? How can I create more reverent space in my relationships to allow others to become?   Discussion Questions: How is the Lord calling you to mission? When you think about a friendship or marriage that you admire, what qualities of that relationship inspire you? Who are the people in my life that I feel at home with? How have you experienced possessiveness negatively impacting your relationships? Where do you long for a deeper sense of belonging? Which friends and relationships have played a role in helping you become who God has created you to be?   Quotes to Ponder: "The mission of joy and friendship within the Christian community is even more fundamental than the Church's mission to the poor and needy, because love and joy are the source from which all ministry to the sorrowing must flow." (Friendship in the Lord, Page 7)   "The wonderful mystery which is you is not complete until you are appreciated." (Friendship in the Lord, Page 19)   Scripture for Lectio: "My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends. You are my friends if you do what I command.  I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you." (John 15:12-15)   Sponsor - Ascension: For the first time in more than 50 years, the Church in the United States will begin praying with a new translation of The Liturgy of the Hours starting in 2027.

What does it really mean to abide in Jesus? In John 15, Jesus says, “I am the vine; you are the branches.” He reminds us that apart from Him, we can do nothing. But abiding in Christ is not passive. It is not just sitting still, feeling spiritual, or keeping our faith private. When we are truly connected to Jesus, His life begins to produce fruit in us, and that fruit is not just for us. It is for the people around us. In this message from our From the Vine series, Pastor Josh Hersey teaches from John 15, 1 John 3, 1 John 4, and Psalm 143 about the action of abiding. Real love shows up through action. Real discipleship moves us toward serving, giving, praying, caring, witnessing, leading, and laying down our lives for others the way Jesus laid down His life for us. If you have ever wondered how to grow spiritually, how to bear fruit as a Christian, or what your next step of obedience might be, this message will challenge and encourage you. Abiding in Jesus does not mean doing more to earn God's love. It means staying connected to the source of life so deeply that His love begins to move through your life toward others. Am I trusting God to lead me forward in His will, or am I trusting in my own way?   New here or made a decision to follow Jesus today? We would love to connect with you.

Abiding in Christ is not merely a doctrine to explain, but a living relationship of faithfulness, love, and obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus plainly taught that the branch which does not abide in Him will wither and be cast away, showing that no one can truly belong to Christ while continuing in unfaithfulness, worldliness, and sin. We learn that salvation is not earned by works, yet the grace of God that saves us also changes us, teaches us to deny ungodliness, and to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world. Therefore, we must look to the real Jesus of the Bible, give ourselves wholly to Him, walk in His light, and let His love loosen the hold this world has on our hearts.

The key to bearing fruit is found in abiding in Christ. Our Father is so committed to fruit bearing, that every branch that bears fruit he prunes that it may bear more fruit. When it comes to pruning or discipline, we understand that God is dealing with sin in our lives, but we need to recognize that he is also removing excess weight from our lives. We are commanded to abide, so that the joy of Jesus may be in us and our joy may be full.

One of the biggest signs of transition is something most people misunderstand: The grace begins to lift. That doesn't always mean you've failed. Sometimes it means your assignment is changing. In this teaching, we'll talk about: • Lifted grace • Abiding vs. striving • Fear of the unknown • Trusting God without having all the answers • Why transition exposes what we're really trusting • How God expands your capacity before He expands your influence If you've been wondering why things suddenly feel harder, this message is for you.   Experience transformation inside Courage Co.

What does it mean to abide in God when your quiet time feels empty and your spiritual life feels flat?You've been showing up — reading your Bible, praying, doing all the things — and something still feels off. This episode is about what's actually happening when that occurs. Not what you're doing wrong. What's actually going on. We go deep into John 15 to unpack what Jesus actually meant when he said remain in me — why the fruit that grows from genuine abiding was never meant to just feed you, and what it looks like to stay when everything in you wants to fix the flatness or conclude that God is gone.Abiding is not a feeling you achieve. It's a posture you return to.In This Episode•Why doing all the right spiritual things can still leave you feeling completely disconnected•What John 15 actually says about dependence, pruning, joy, and friendship with God•Why reading God's word alone doesn't produce transformation — and what has to be added•How the fruit of abiding flows outward and feeds others not just yourself•Why hormonal shifts can affect your spiritual life in ways nobody warned you aboutKey Takeaways•Chase the feeling and you end up performing.

In this episode, we begin our summer book study on Friendship in the Lord by Fr. Paul Hinnebusch, OP. We focus on the foreword and prologue and reflect on the difference between prudence and fear, the ways we self-protect in relationships, and our longing for authentic communion. We also talk about what it means to love without possessing, how to receive others as a gift, and why friendship is a foretaste of heaven.    Other Resources Mentioned: Friendship in the Lord Study Webpage Small Group Discussion Guide   Announcement: If you'd like a copy of Friendship in the Lord, you can buy your copy from Ave Maria Press (or Amazon).   Journal Questions: How do I self protect and hide myself in my relationships? When have I felt embarrassed by my own need for friendship? Do I allow people to be free in my relationships? How has a friend failed me and how have I failed a friend?   Discussion Questions: How do you define good friendship? How have your friendships brought you closer to the Lord? How is God inviting you to bring your relationships into closer communion with God? When have you experienced possessiveness in your friendships? What hopes and desires do I have for my friendships?   Quotes to Ponder: "A true friend is a sort of icon of God, an other through whom the Lord's kindness and mercy shine in a manner that binds up and anoints our brokenness." (Forward to Friendship in the Lord, Fr. John Burns, xv)    "As Fr. Hinnebusch says so well, "What a Christian friend wants above all else for the loved one is his or her communion with the Lord. The one I love, my wife, my husband, my friend, belongs first of all to the Lord. And in that sense, I am only the friend of the Bridegroom. He alone is true Spouse of each and every human heart. He must increase, while I must decrease."" (Forward to Friendship in the Lord, xvii)   "A friendship is two lives joined in love and lived as one. But friendship in the Lord is never two people closed in upon themselves. Each of the friends is fully open to the Lord and open to other friends in such a way that the friendship is always part of a larger community. The Christian community is a cluster of many friendships knit together." (Preface to Friendship in the Lord, xix)    Scripture for Lectio: "Now the birth of Jesus the Messiah took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit. Her husband Joseph, being a righteous man and unwilling to expose her to public disgrace, planned to dismiss her quietly.  But just when he had resolved to do this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins." All this took place to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet: "Look, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son,     and they shall name him Emmanuel," which means, "God is with us."  When Joseph awoke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him; he took her as his wife,  but had no marital relations with her until she had borne a son; and he named him Jesus." (Matthew 1:10-25)   Sponsor - Ascension: For the first time in more than 50 years, the Church in the United States will begin praying with a new translation of The Liturgy of the Hours starting in 2027.

One of the most amazing scientific advances in my lifetime has been those great space shuttle flights. Especially back when they were first getting started. We got to hear space news on a pretty regular basis and watch those dramatic launches. We'd hear conversations from space. We still do, from the Space Station. It looks like we're getting back into the moon business too! You know, you could hear the familiar sound of the conversation between the NASA Mission Control Center and those astronauts up there. The space day would begin with a wake up song from Houston. They'd play something that would say, “Good morning!” Then they would communicate back and forth all day long. Of course, they were in constant communication. See, when you're living in an environment where so much could go wrong; it's really important to do that. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about “Not Just When There's Trouble.” Our word for today from the Word of God – Isaiah 30. I'll begin at verse 1: “'Woe to the obstinate children,' declares the Lord.” Who are those? “Those who carry out plans that are not mine, forming an alliance, but not by my Spirit, heaping sin upon sin; who go down to Egypt without consulting me; who look for help to Pharaoh's protection, to Egypt's shade for refuge. But Pharaoh's protection will be to your shame. Everyone will be put to shame because of a people useless to them, who bring neither help nor advantage, but only shame and disgrace.” This is a description of God's people off course; they're off on their own. They've made some plans, they've made some alliances, they've asked for some help. But it's only going to lead to shame and disgrace. Why are they off course? Well, he said they planned but “not by my Spirit.” They've gone ahead “without consulting me.” Imagine if our astronauts had only communicated with Mission Control at launch time, and then as soon as they were safely up, they went off and did what they pleased; no input all day from the data that they have at Mission Control? Well, that would be dumb if not disaster! And then the only other time they would contact Mission Control was when a crisis developed. I can just imagine Houston coming back and saying, “If you'd been in touch with us all along, there might not have been a crisis.” Or, “We could have helped you correct it when it was small.” I've done that so many times in my relationship with my Mission Control - I mean my Heavenly Father. Have you? We have a good time talking when we're launching something. As the day begins, I spend my time with the Lord, and we talk through the issues of that day. And then, of course, I run to Him when trouble develops. But I neglect the points in between sometimes. I tend to neglect that regular communication throughout the non-crisis details of the day and that's a big mistake. You know, just stop for a moment and say, “Lord, what do You want done here? Which way should I go on this? Who's the right person? What's the best way to answer this? What's the best way to solve this?” Listen to those words; they're haunting words. God says, “You've proceeded without consulting me. You're carrying out plans that are not mine.” We don't mean to. It just happens because we do not stay in close, all day communication when those little choices are being made that make the big choices. Many crises are the result of everyday decisions we make without consulting our Commander. We need to consciously practice what Jesus calls “abiding in Him.” Not just visiting. Abiding in Him! Like those astronauts, we need to stay in constant contact with Mission Control.

Do Catholics believe we have to earn our salvation? Are we saved by faith alone? What role do good works actually play in the Christian life? In this episode, Fr. Michael and Fr. Christopher Trummer discuss faith, works, grace, justification, salvation, and sanctification from a Catholic perspective. They explain why Catholics do not believe we can earn salvation by our own efforts, while also showing why Scripture repeatedly teaches that real faith must bear fruit in love, obedience, perseverance, and good works. This conversation looks at passages from Ephesians, Romans, James, Matthew 25, John 15, Philippians 2, and more. The goal is not to reduce salvation to self-reliance or religious performance, but also not to fall into passivity. The Christian life is a life of grace-filled cooperation with God. We are saved by grace. We receive that grace through faith. And that faith, if it is living, works through love.

Shakings Coming (1) (audio) David Eells – 6-24-26 IT WILL SHAKE THE WORLD! Lynne Johnson 5-27-26 IAM, King Yeshuya wants you, My people to know that all will erupt soon in Iran. President Trump is playing a waiting game with the radicalized left in the IRGC for there are many factions vying for control. Trump is ensuring that when the United States military strikes Iran, the United States will have very few casualties. Trump doesn't want American casualties, therefore the United States is intending to use all intelligence being fathered to ensure few American casualties. When the U.S. Military strikes, there will be no doubt that the IRGC, in its radical form, is no longer in existence. Once assured of the success of this campaign, Trump will have the military pull back to the general areas away from Iran. Very shortly after the United States military pulls back from Iran, then Israel will strike. First, Damascus, Syria (a weapon depot) destroying it. Next, Israel will move against Iran's nuclear facilities along with their weapon depots. These strikes will effectively end Iran's nuclear program. Once this is concluded, then very shortly look for the First Event of MY Judgments (again these events of Mine, King Yeshuya, are not those of Tribulation, which are far worse, for a much longer time frame), the California earthquake which will shake the world as this earthquake is massive in size and in effect. I AM, King Yeshuya tells you this again so that you MY children, MY Believers are warned to plan, to prepare for what is soon to occur. IAM always warns ahead through MY prophets and messengers. Listen to My Words, heed My Warnings for they are to help protect you and your families. Continue MY children to come to ME in prayer, stay in MY Word, stay focused, stay calm. Come directly to ME, King Yeshuya with your queries. I AM will gladly answer you. IAM loves you MY children. Your King Yeshuya, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Most High, Commander of heaven's hosts and armies, the Lion of Judah, the Prince of Peace. Scriptures: Psalm 20:7 NKJV “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we will remember and trust in the name of the Lord our God.” Isaiah 43:2 NKJV “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through fire, you will not be scorched, nor will the flame burn you.” Ezekiel 7:7 NKJV “Doom has come to you, you who dwell in the land; the time has come, a day of trouble is near, and not of rejoicing in the mountains.” Isaiah 17:1 NIV “A prophecy against Damascus: “See, Damascus will no longer be a city but will become a heap of ruins.” Isaiah 13:9 NKJV “Behold, the day of the Lord comes, cruel with both wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate; and He will destroy its sinners from it.” Isaiah 13:6 NKJV “Wait, for the day of the Lord is at hand! It will come as destruction from the Almighty.” John 14:29 NKJV “And now I told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe.” Lamentations 3:25 NKJV “The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the soul who seeks Him.”   FAMINE WILL EXTEND WORLDWIDE Lynne Johnson – 5-9-26 I AM, King Yeshuya, would like MY people to know that it is soon for the “Iranian Conflict” to conclude. It will end as IAM has stated; the United States will deploy missiles, which will effectively end the IRGC Regime's control over Iran. Then the United States will pull back their military, leaving destroyers, aircraft carriers, and such in the area. Shortly after the United States military is pulled back, Israel will strike Damascus, the other weapon depots in Syria, then strike Iran's nuclear facilities and weapon depots. Israel will present the truth with proof that Iran fully intended to finish the building of nuclear bombs to destroy Israel. There will be the usual outcry, but no one will “lift a hand” against Israel, for all of the surrounding Arab nations know the truth. They also know that they were not safe from Iran's nuclear attacks. Again MY children, this is your marker to know that you only have a short time to finish getting your food, to prepare for what is coming, MY First Event – Judgment upon California. Do not put off procuring your food, your other necessities. Use cash as much as possible and by going to different stores. Do not discuss storing food with ANY OTHERS as IAM has clearly stated unless you have spoken directly with ME, King Yeshuya, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords to find out who you are able to trust. Ensure that you get your answer from ME, BEFORE you talk with others. If you choose not to listen to ME here, you and your family will suffer harm. People will become desperate quickly for food – any food that they are able to find. They do not wish to share, and they will harm others to get food. Those who have not done so recently or at all, are to read Jeremiah – ALL OF IT! You will see what hunger does to people. There will be few people who you will be able to trust now, so be discreet and come to ME, King Yeshuya to find out who you can SAFELY SHARE YOUR FOOD WITH. You must also accept MY answer as final. IAM alone sees the hearts, minds, thoughts and intentions of ALL people! You do not. You must also understand that the famine will extend worldwide. It will not be located only in specific cities, areas, or countries. With the famine, there will be deaths and then pestilences due to these deaths. IAM will give you more specific detail on this soon. FOR NOW YOUR JOB IS TO PREPARE. COME DIRECTLY TO ME WITH YOUR QUESTIONS AS I AM WILL GLADLY ANSWER YOU. MY BELOVED CHILDREN, STAY IN PRAYER TO ME, STAY IN MY WORD, STAY FOCUSED, STAY CALM. Your King Yeshuya, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, the Most High, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Lion of Judah, the Prince of Peace Scriptures: Isaiah 17:1 NKJV “The burden against Damascus. “Behold, Damascus will cease from being a city, and it will be a ruinous heap.” Luke 21:11 NKJV “And there will be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven.” Psalm 9:8 NKJV “He shall judge the world in righteousness, and He shall administer judgment for the people in uprightness.” Ecclesiastes 8:6 NKJV “Because for every matter there is a time and judgment, though the misery of man increases greatly.” Psalm 76:8 NKJV “You caused judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared and was still.” Deuteronomy 8:6 NKJV “Observe the commands of the LORD your God, walking in obedience to Him and revering Him.” Proverbs 15:11 NKJV “Hell and Destruction are before the Lord; so how much more the hearts of the sons of men.” Psalm 112:5 NKJV “A good man deals graciously and lends; he will guide his affairs with discretion.” Deuteronomy 32:24 NKJV “They shall be wasted with hunger, devoured by pestilence and bitter destruction; I will also send against them the teeth of beasts, with the poison of serpents of the dust.” Romans 12:12 NKJV “Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer,”   GOLDEN DOME MR POOL X - *GOLDEN DOME went fully operational on June 14, 2026.** Not announced.

Why So Many Christians Are Striving Instead of Abiding? Website: www.PastorTodd.org To support this show and ministry: www.ToddCoconato.com/give   Are you constantly busy, constantly working, constantly trying harder, yet still feeling spiritually exhausted? In today's episode of The Todd Coconato Show, we tackle a struggle that many believers face but few talk about: striving. There is a difference between working diligently and living under the weight of performance, pressure, and self-effort. God never called us to carry burdens that only He can carry. Jesus didn't say, “Strive harder.” He said, “Abide in Me.” We'll discuss why so many Christians find themselves burned out, discouraged, and frustrated, even while serving God faithfully. More importantly, we'll uncover the biblical key to walking in peace, fruitfulness, and true rest in Christ. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders, this message is for you. “Abide in Me, and I in you.” (John 15:4 NKJV) Join us as we discover the freedom that comes when we stop striving and start abiding. #ToddCoconatoShow #AbideInChrist #FaithOverFear #ChristianLiving #BiblicalTruth

What if our children could learn to take their hurts, fears, and struggles to Jesus in the moment instead of carrying those wounds into adulthood?In this part two conversation, Jennifer Barnett shares practical tools to help parents equip their children with the foundations of inner healing prayer, emotional resilience, and a lifelong connection with God.
