What can happen when we tie our identity to our outcomes? Many of us who listen to this podcast are very goal-oriented, not only that, but we may tend to want to overachieve. What can happen is that we are human! We may not hit a goal at the same time we used to. We may not be in the same season of life that we were once in, so we end up comparing ourselves to ourselves! Today's guest Chad Everett talks about how obedience over outcomes can help us to stay focused on God's plan for us, God's timing.

What does it really mean to live with a seed that has purpose? In this message, Pastor Chad Everett reveals how Jesus became the ultimate seed—dying so His life could multiply in us. Discover how your own purpose grows when you surrender, serve, and live for something beyond yourself. Key Scripture: John 12: 24 – “Unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain.” If you're ready to discover your purpose, experience freedom, and live a life that bears fruit for eternity, watch now and let God speak to your heart.

What if your breakthrough isn't waiting on God to notice your need, but on you to plant His seed? In this message, Chad Everett shows how the Word—planted in your heart with faith—goes from a tiny sprout to a full harvest. You'll learn how to trust God's timing, recognize early growth, and refuse to quit when it's taking longer than you hoped. If you've been praying, waiting, or weary…this one's for you. Don't ring the bell. Keep believing. Keep sowing. The Roads Church - https://theroads.church
Why does the Word of God produce such different results in people's lives? Jesus said the difference isn't the seed—it's the soil of the heart. In this message from Mark 4: 3–20, Chad Everett teaches on the thorny soil—the heart conditions that hear the Word but allow the cares of this world, the deceitfulness of riches, and the desire for other things to choke it out. These thorns don't just distract us—they suffocate the breath of God's Word in us. But God gives us a way to respond: cast your cares on Him, practice generosity that breaks the power of riches, and seek the one thing—Jesus—above all else. This isn't just about a parable; it's about your heart right now. Will you allow thorns to choke the Word, or will you receive it, accept it, and bear fruit that multiplies thirty, sixty, and a hundredfold? Lean in and let the Holy Spirit show you what needs to be cleared, so the Word can breathe fresh life in you. The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
“The seed is good, but the condition of the soil determines the production.” In this message, Chad Everett teaches from Mark 4 about the parable of the sower and the stony ground. God's Word is always good seed, but hidden stones in our hearts—like offense, bitterness, or unforgiveness—can keep it from taking root. Discover how to: Let God reveal and remove the “stones” that limit growth Develop roots deep enough to endure trials and persecution Avoid the trap of offense and walk in forgiveness Stay rooted in Christ, not politics, platforms, or opinions When our hearts are open, God's Word can go deep, and rivers of living water can flow within us (John 7: 38). Listen in and be encouraged to let the Lord strengthen your roots so you can stand strong and bear fruit—even in the heat of life. The Roads Church - https://theroads.church
In this message, Pastor Chad Everett continues the Soil and Seed – Keys to the Kingdom series with a powerful question: Which seed are we growing? From Genesis 1–3, he shows how every life is producing fruit from one of two seeds—the deception of the enemy or the truth of Christ. Discover how to move beyond feelings, stand on God's Word, and cultivate the seed of Jesus in your life.

You'll discover how the seed of Christ in you has the power to produce a harvest of righteousness, purpose, and lasting fruit—when it's planted and nurtured.

Your soil matters more than you think. You've been hearing the Word, quoting scripture, maybe even planting seeds of faith. But if nothing's growing, it's time to check the soil. The problem isn't always the seed—it's where it's landing. In this message, Pastor Chad Everett reveals the creative power of your spirit, the soil God designed to produce supernatural results. When the Word gets into your spirit—not just your mind—it will grow. That's how the Kingdom of God works. This message will challenge you to: * Stop living from your formed part (your body and mind) * Start engaging your created part (your spirit—the real you) * Plant the Word deep in your heart and watch it multiply thirty, sixty, and one hundredfold Your spirit is not ordinary dirt. It was created by God to bring forth His purposes. But it can only produce when the Word is planted deep within it. It's time to stop just hearing the Word and start growing it. https://theroads.church
You were never called to simply improve your life — you were called to die to yourself and be raised with Christ. Through the power of the cross, Jesus paid the debt we could never pay and stripped the enemy of his weapons, making a way for us to live fully alive in Him. "Until you're ready to die, you're not really ready to live." — Pastor Chad Everett In this message from Colossians 2 and 3, Pastor Chad challenges us to stop living for ourselves, bury the old life, and walk in the resurrection life Jesus offers. Learn what it means to truly die to sin, seek the things above, and set your mind on the life God has for you.
“The man in the middle makes the difference!” Proximity Is Not the Same as Relationship This moment speaks directly to us today. Many people are near Jesus — even in church, around Christian things — but not actually with Jesus. “You can be next to Jesus and still miss Him.” The man on the left died near Jesus, but not with Jesus. The man on the right died with Jesus, and woke up in paradise. Which criminal are we? This is the ultimate question. Are you the one who wants Jesus to save your life so you can keep it? Or are you the one who says, “I deserve death. Remember me.” Both criminals had the same opportunity. Both were the same distance from Jesus. Only one walked into eternity with Him. Jesus invites you to move from beside Him to with Him. He doesn't force. He lets you choose. Will you surrender? Will you die to your old life? Will you let the man in the middle make the difference in your life today? The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
Discover how God's plan and provision for your life begins with simply being with Him. In this powerful sermon, Pastor Chad Everett takes us into Exodus 3 and the calling of Moses to reveal three foundational truths: God has a plan! His provision is already built into that plan! He invites us into partnership! Are you asking God to be with your plans—or are you aligning yourself with His? This message will challenge you to step out in faith, listen for His voice, and trust that wherever His plan leads, His presence will be there.
Are you praying but struggling to believe? In this powerful sermon, we dive deep into Mark 11 : 22 -24, where Jesus teaches us how to pray with unshakable faith. When you pray, do you truly believe that God will answer? Faith isn't just hope—it's a firm conviction that God's promises are true!
We must return to the foundation of faith—PRAYER. The early church was built on prayer, and today, we are called to do the same. In this powerful teaching, we dive into the ABCs of Prayer and why making prayer a priority in our daily lives is more important than ever. What You'll Learn:: How to make prayer a daily priority (Matthew 6:33) Why prayer combats anxiety and fear (Philippians 4:6-7) The importance of persistent and bold prayer (Luke 18:1) How to pray for all things—nothing is too big or small for God! What it means to be a house of prayer (Matthew 21:13) KEY SCRIPTURE: "Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing." – 1 Thessalonians 5:16-17 The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
In this teaching on Luke 11, Chad Everett dives deep into Jesus' lesson on prayer—how it can be taught, learned, and applied with persistence. When the disciples asked, “Lord, teach us to pray,” Jesus not only gave them the model prayer (The Lord's Prayer) but also shared a powerful parable about a friend knocking at midnight. Luke 18 continues the conversation, focusing on the character and nature of God. If we're going to pray correctly, we must understand that God is not like the reluctant friend in bed or the unjust judge. Too many people see God as distant or unwilling, like someone who has bigger things to worry about than our everyday problems. That is not God! Jesus emphasizes that God is a good Father who wants us to come boldly and persistently to Him, trusting that He will answer our prayers.
The early church was committed to steadfastly continue in prayer. If we as a church today believe that we should pray, what keeps us from praying? - WE DON'T KNOW HOW. Prayer can be taught & learned. Jesus taught His disciples to pray. - WE CAN BE LAZY. Not wanting to put in the time & effort. - WE WANT TO BE INDEPENDENT. Pride won't pray, it doesn't need God. Humility prays, it's dependent on God. - WE THINK IT DOESN'T MATTER OR MAKE A DIFFERENCE. Active, working & functioning prayer - it gets the job done! Keep praying! It matters! It makes a difference! Our prayers are filling the golden bowls in heaven. The goal in prayer is to align our hearts with God and to know what to pray. "Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months.And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit." James 5:16-18 SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49387865 The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
Prayer came first. Then 3,000 souls were added. Prayer makes a way! It is the plow in the ground that comes before everything that God wants to do in the earth. Jesus instructs us - ASK and KEEP ASKING, SEEK and KEEP SEEKING, KNOCK and KEEP KNOCKING. God is GOOD, and gives good things to those who ask Him. We must not quit. We must keep praying. "These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers." Acts 1 : 14 NKJV “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent?If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!" Matt 7 : 7 - 11 NKJV SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49380228 THE ROADS CHURCH: https://theroads.church
What did the first church in Acts 2 think was important? SOULS God doesn't just want people who attend and sit in a church, looking for an outward touch, with no inward change. HE WANTS SOULS! Those that receive and believe. Those are the ones added to the Church. The ones being saved. And the purpose of the Church is to link people together with Jesus, and continue to grow in Him based on the 4 Pillars of the Church: 1) Apostle's Doctrine - didachē - Instruction, teaching 2) Fellowship - kŏinōnia - Close mutual relationships and involvement 3) Breaking of Bread 4) Prayers - prŏsĕuchē - To speak to God "Then those who gladly received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them." Acts 2:41 SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49377555 The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
We are to continue steadfastly in the Four Joints of Building The Body of Christ. Joint # 3 - THE BREAKING OF BREAD 1) COMMUNION - the body & blood of our Lord Jesus Christ (John 6 : 48 - 51) 2) EATING TOGETHER - in the temple & house-to-house, the body of Christ must gather & fellowship 3) READING THE WORD - Encountering Jesus in the revelation of The Word "And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.: Acts 2:42 NKJV SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49362570 The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
Fellowship - kŏinōnia - Close mutual relationships and involvement; partnership, participation; sharing in activities or privileges of an intimate association We are to "continue steadfastly" in Fellowship - both horizontally - with our brothers and sisters in Christ, and vertically with the Father and Jesus. And this is that "your joy may be full." Vertical Fellowship - We are not called merely into a relationship ABOUT JESUS; we're called into a kŏinōnia WITH JESUS. We are called to partner with, participate with, involved with Jesus in an intimate relationship. You cannot have faith outside of the revelation that Jesus living in you is greater than he who is in the world, and then you can release faith through Jesus living in you. Horizontal Fellowship - Who you fellowship with MATTERS! We have been called to horizontal kŏinōnia that goes out into the world that is so connected to Jesus that He in us will draw people to Him. When we partner with people who are connected to Jesus who prays for us, who encourages us, and when we get out of kŏinōnia with Jesus and the Bible, they call us to the truth. And when we partner with others in ministry - fruit abounds to your account in heaven. "That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life— the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us— that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. And these things we write to you that your joy may be full." 1 John 1:1-4 SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49355284 The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
All of our theology & doctrine will be based on scripture. We will continue steadfastly in all three biblical teachings of the Apostle's Doctrine: 1) The doctrine of Baptism of Holy Spirit & Fire (Acts 1:4) - Believers need power. 2) The doctrine of Signs & Wonders (Acts 2:43) - They were done through the apostles. God wants to work signs and wonders through YOU, through the power of the Spirit of God to flow through. 3) The doctrine of Authority of the Believer (Mark 1:21-28) - Jesus has given us the authority over ALL the power of the enemy. "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." 2 Timothy 3:16 SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49352302 The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
Church growth is about each of us growing in our relationship with Jesus, with the joints of the body in place both collectively and in our lives individually. And then as followers of Jesus, we must be willing to testify about our relationship with Jesus and what He is doing in our life. Our testimony should exhort/urge other people to take action and do something with it. TESTIFY & EXHORT! Let me tell you about Jesus! "A person with an argument is not match for a person with an experience." And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, “Be saved from this perverse generation.” Acts 2:40 SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49347598 The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
All five gifts found in Ephesians 4 - apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor and teacher - were given to the church for equipping the body for the work of ministry. We are not equipped for ourselves. We are equipped to minister for the benefit of others, for the building up and fitting of the body of Christ. You can be attached to a body, and not be attached to a head. It's called a CORPSE. Sometimes people are attached to a body, attending a church, but if we're not attached to the head, we will not be fully alive and functioning. We are all part of the body, with different assignment. We all need one another. We will not be equipped or fit, without all the gifts of the body of Christ operating. And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love. Eph 4:11-16 SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49345701 The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
Something bigger than us, not “OF” us, was given to us so that God can do things that are bigger than us through us. God wants us to understand the significance of what He's given us. Church is never just ME & JESUS. The Church is a body, and we need each other. Gifts were not given to promote our independence, but rather to operate together as one body. When every part does it's share, it causes growth and edifies the body of Christ, and builds it up. "But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gift." Ephesians 4:7 "As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God." I Peter 4:10 SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49339229 THE ROADS CHURCH: https://theroads.church
"You are the body of Christ, and members individually." Everyone has a calling or invitation to walk into God's direction for their life. We have been bought with a price, and we no longer belong to ourselves, but they are legally God's, and He determines what we do with our lives. Too many times we ask the Lord to bless our life decisions. It's so important as Christians to know the purpose God has for our lives living it in alignment with your calling - everywhere you go. We can jump out of our calling because we lack lowliness, gentleness, longsuffering and bearing with one another. How long do we endure suffering? As long as it takes to become like JESUS! "WALK WORTHY OF THE CALLING WITH WHICH YOU WERE CALLED!" Eph 4:1 SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49334497 The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
We think our ministry is about us, but our ministry according to God's standard is what you are supposed to do to serve and help and bless others. You and I all have an assignment to serve other people, and God is saying, "Fulfill your ministry!" He's given all of us gifts and talents for one reason - to bless other people! We're going to have to make an account for what we do with all that He's given us. Jesus is coming to settle accounts! II Timothy 4:1-5, Romans 14:12, Matthew 25:14-19, Revelation 3:11-12, Ephesians 4:7-16 SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49331194 The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
The Son of God, the Son of Man will appear in the Eastern sky, right before our eyes. And BAM! In a moment, we will be changed from mortal to immortal, from dying to never dying. There is a day coming that Jesus will appear, and He will sit on His throne, and like a shepherd, He will separate the sheep from the goats. We will give an account to Jesus for our life lived unto Him. We've all been given an assignment from God to PREACH, to DECLARE the WORD! We must be more concerned about someone's eternity than we are about our feelings. We must teach the truth publicly, whether it's convenient and favorable, or it's inconvenient and unfavorable, whether culture says it's good or not. Jesus is coming back! Is Jesus the King of your life? When He separates you, will He separate you as a sheep or a goat? Be READY! PREACH THE WORD! STICK TO THE TRUTH! SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49322364 The Roads Church https://theroads.church
GO FIND SOMEONE & TELL THEM TO COME & SEE JESUS! Roads Church - we must not neglect our assignment that God has given to plant churches. Time is running short, and people need to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ, and the power of Holy Spirit. The world needs the truth! God is reminding us - Don't forget what you were called to do! FIND someone who hasn't seen what you've seen, and SHOW them what you've seen! That they may never un-see! We have to find people, and give them the hope of Jesus Christ. This is why God has called us to go out and plant churches and to reach people in other communities. It's not about us! We're building His Kingdom - not ours. Who is the last Nathaniel that you've said, "Come and see what I have seen about Jesus. He has changed my life"? Who is the last Philip, the last Simon, the last Nathaniel that you've brought to see Jesus? The Roads Church https://theroads.church
Church we have taken scripture that was meant for a specific people, with a specific issue, during a specific time, and used it in 2024 as God's law, rather than recognizing it is the law and tradition of man. There are no laws according to God that says that women cannot speak in church. Paul did not contradict himself in 1 Corinthians chapter 14 and chapter 11. Women - you have the same access & right to the promises of Abraham as heirs of Christ, as the men do. We must stop comparing ourselves with one another, pushing one another down. We must be secure in who we are in Christ. Be secure Woman! Be Secure Man! You must be who God called you to be. SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49317241 https://theroads.church
Newsflash - Moses didn't build the Tabernacle. Bazalel and Aholiab did! God put wisdom, skill/talent inside of them to build it. And God has put talent inside of each of us for His purpose to reveal or make known through the gospel the life that does not end. Talent is your God-given ability. We all have the same God-given purpose - it's His purpose, but we all have different appointments based on our talents. When we have an understanding of our TALENT - what we can and cannot be the best at, and develop it to give God our best in pursuit of our purpose - OUR GREEN, then everywhere people go, they will see the light shining on the God kind of life that never ends - at the lumber yard, in the grocery store, sitting in the dentist chair . . . 2 Timothy 1:6-10, John 11:25, John 14:6, Romans 6:4-5, Exodus 31:1-11, 2 Chronicles 2:12, 1 Kings 7:13 Where's Your Green?

God has saved us AND CALLED us. God is calling everyone, but not everyone will fulfill the calling. Too many people are ignoring God's call. God's invitation to us is according to His purposes. It's greater than what we do for our job to make a living. It's vital that we know where our purpose comes from; it comes from God, and it's about what He wants to do in the Earth to bring all of creation into His Kingdom. He is blowing up your phone inviting you to live a life that is dedicated to Him, devoted to Him, and set apart to Him - HOLY UNTO HIM. When we submit to His purpose, everything that He created you to do on the inside, will be fulfilled. No one will fulfill their true purpose in life without Jesus. Your true purpose is In Him. 1 Timothy 1:8-12 1 Peter 1:15-16 2 Corinthians 6:17 Where's Your Green?

Paul wrote to the church at Corinth for the purpose of speaking about the expectation of being in harmonious relationships and unity in the house of God, and then instructed them with how that is accomplished in light of using the gifts to bring Edification, Unity & Peace. The Church should be: Speaking in tongues ✓ Interpreting in certain situations ✓ Prophesying ✓ Desiring spiritual gifts ✓ Not forbidding speaking in tongues ✓ All things done decently and in order ✓ We must trust God to let Him say what is "decent" and "in order" and not our tradition. If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things which I write to you are the commandments of the Lord.But if anyone is ignorant, let him be ignorant.Therefore, brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak with tongues. Let all things be done decently and in order. I Corinthians 14:37-40 NKJV SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49308545 The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
Holy Spirit is IN YOU for NEW LIFE, and He comes UPON YOU for POWER & GIFTS for ministering to people. Tongues is a gift we receive when we are baptized in Holy Spirit, allowing us the ability to speak to God, and in the spirit speak mysteries. The Church must not forbid it. It's going to be essential for all believers, the Church, to operate in the Power of Holy Spirit in the days to come. The wisdom needed in the end days comes from the Bible, and it's available. We must be on the cutting edge of prophecy. What is God saying in this hour? SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49305224
Tongues is not about memorizing syllables - it's about making connection with Holy Spirit as our source to speak what the Father & Son are speaking. It empowers us, and gives us access to speak and pray when we do not know what to pray. It is speaking the "mysteries of heaven." Let Holy Spirit speak. Then speak what He's telling you to say.
When Holy Spirit is on our life - we have POWER, which means by definition that we have abilities, power, strength and might that we didn't have before and without Him. With Him in your life, you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you, without Christ you can do nothing. Part of that “Power Package,” is speaking in tongues. When Holy Spirit comes upon you, you now have the ability to communicate with a language with God, praying the will of God that you did not have in your own natural ability. Speaking with God isn't EXTRA! Or unnecessary. Or just for certain people. IT'S BIBLICAL. We've wanted the power without a relationship with Him, it's been the temptation from the beginning. But God's desire has always been about a relationship and in His PRESENCE there is POWER. SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49283814 The Roads Church: https://the roads.church

Where are the men after God's heart? Those who are: OBEDIENT - Submission to someone greater HUMBLE - Servant COURAGEOUS - Fighter/Warrior PASSIONATE - Worshiper A man with a heart after God - LOVES GOD! Every man wants the Goliath story, but David also danced! Everyone wants to be the warrior, but what about also dancing before the Lord and looking foolish before people? Men, we are wired by God to have a heart after His. "And when He had removed him, He raised up for them David as king, to whom also He gave testimony and said, ‘I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after My own heart, who will do all My will.'" Acts 13:22 NKJV YouVersion Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/49275781 The Roads Church: https://theroads.church
When we receive Holy Spirit, we should expect to speak in tongues. Holy Spirit doesn't take over your tongue, but does tell you what to say, giving you the words to speak out of your mouth. We have to speak what He says. First - We are filled with the PERSON of HOLY SPIRIT. THEN - Holy Spirit tells us what to say. It's Holy Spirit's job to give us the "utterance," but it's our job to do the speaking. "While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word. And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also. For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God. Then Peter answered, “Can anyone forbid water, that these should not be baptized who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?” And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they asked him to stay a few days." Acts 10:44-48 SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49264907 The Roads Church: https://the roads.church

Our Helper! Holy Spirit! Not just with us, BUT IN US! "If I can get them scared of Holy Spirit, I will get the power out of their life." The enemy understands the dunamis power we have through Holy Spirit. He wants to keep us operating in our natural power, and not Holy Spirit's supernatural power. He wants to tame and domesticate Christians to believe that salvation is about behavior modification instead of it being about transformational power that changes them on the inside and around them. Without understanding the Feast of Pentecost, you can't move beyond Passover. We must understand Pentecost!

What does Christianity look like? 1) Deny yourself! 2) Take up your cross! 3) Follow Jesus! Being born-again is bigger than saying a prayer and attending church on Sundays. When we say, "I do," we are married to Jesus! It's waking up everyday and saying, "I do!" It's having a relationship with Him, and not cheating on Him. It's being faithful ALL the time. He is above all! SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49241997 THE ROADS CHURCH: https://theroads.church
I can prevail, because JESUS prevailed! The enemy tries to destroy us with pressure. Jesus tries to grow us with pressure. The pressure and crushing that comes into our lives has two agendas. One is of heaven, and one is of hell. We have to choose which one we agree with. JESUS IS the RESURRECTION! [John 11:25-27] https://theroads.church
"when He had come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved - shaken; vibrated, agitated, created a commotion. Jesus wants to come and shake up things in our lives, and flip upside down "normal." When we come into contact with JESUS . . . One encounter with Jesus can change everything! It has the power to change our "normal" way of doing things. We are a new creation in Christ! Shake us. Move and agitate on the inside of us Lord, to drive out everything you don't want in our lives. Then Jesus went into the temple of God and drove out all those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves. Matt 21:12 Drove out - ĕkballō - To throw out, drive out, force to leave by physical means - origin; from or outballo - throw, cast or thrust Overturned - katastrĕphō - To turn upside down; to cause something to be upset or turned over from its normal position.

If we know something is the will of God, and we are releasing our faith to receive it and bring it into our lives, we have to BE PREPARED - STEP # 3 IS COMING! It's called "Resistance." There is an enemy that does not want us to have what the will of God is for our lives. We have to be determined to "OVERCOME OPPOSITION." Be strong! And of Good Courage! Do not fear, nor be afraid. The Lord your God goes with you! We must BE COMMITTED TO FINISH THE JOB! KEY # 4! When God brings something to your attention to drive out in your life, we must deal with it and drive it all out. When we don't drive out what God tells us to drive out in our lives, and they remain, they will harass us. Jesus wants to come in and heal and restore and help us drive out resentment, offense, unforgiveness, disappointment, hurts, and occupy in their place. We must not grow tired with just a little victory. Who is more determined to finish the job driving out everything that God brings to your attention? You or the enemy?

KEY # 2 - Believe the will of God, and have faith enough to be moved to action! Do we believe enough that it moves us to action? If we are going to receive (lambano) what God has for us, His promises for our lives, it's going to require us to 1) Know what the will of God is and 2) believe it so much that my actions change - the way I talk, the way I believe, the way I act. "And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak," II Corinthians 4:13 NKJV "For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us." II Corinthians 1:20 NKJV SERMON NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49225603 Key # 1 - Know What Is Ours To Possess : https://theroads.church/sermon/1-of-4-keys-to-dispossess-our-enemies-know-what-is-ours-to-possess/
