In this episode of Committed to the Cause, Pastor Jeremy Chism of Bethany Baptist Church in Travelers Rest, South Carolina, concludes the devotional series through Haggai with a stirring reminder that true spiritual construction must begin with heart-level consecration.Though God's people had resumed building the temple, their hearts still needed cleansing. ⚒️ Pastor Chism explains from Haggai 2 that religious routine without repentance produces no revival. God desired more than walls of stone—He wanted hearts made holy.

Worship Leader Taylor Cummings reflects on God's invitation in Joel 2:12-13 to return with all our heart, highlighting true repentance from the inside out over outward rituals.

Welcome to Wellspring Church!It's Baptism Sunday—a joyful celebration of new life in Christ! Pastor Billy Waters continues the Deuteronomy series, focusing on what it means to live a consecrated life before God. Drawing from Deuteronomy 14, he explores how God calls His people to be set apart—holy, devoted, and distinct from the world around them.Through a story about discovering a hidden banquet, Pastor Billy illustrates how often we settle for less when God offers us something far greater. Consecration, he said, is not about restriction but about relationship and renewal—turning away from the world's false promises to feast on the riches of God's grace.

Day 20 - CMFI Praise, Prayer and Fasting Crusade. From 13th October to 21st Nov 2025

In a world obsessed with speed, what if the answers we need come only when we slow down and listen? In this episode, Professor Steven C. Harper invites us to pause, reflect deeply, and attune ourselves to the voice of God. Drawing from his book Wrestling with the Restoration: Why This Church Matters, Dr. Harper combines rigorous scholarship with faith to thoughtfully address critiques of the Restoration. He explores complex questions–such as the translation of the Book of Mormon and the origin of the Book of Abraham–and counsels us to slow down and carve out time to ask, "What do I know?" and "How do I know it?" Ultimately, Dr. Harper offers practical ways for us to develop our own personal of witness of Jesus Christ and the Restoration through careful study, sincere reflection, and spiritual seeking.

One of the sobering marks of the present state of the American Church is the flippancy with which we approach the Almighty. It seems that many professing Christians interpret God's grace toward us as permission to operate in various levels of slackness and irreverence. Many offer God their leftovers in life. Consecration is viewed as legalism and sacrificial service is labeled striving. Does it matter how we worship God? Does He care what we offer Him as long as we offer…something? A careful look at Malachi chapter one reminds us that the God who never changes expects an intentional, thoughtful response from those who say they belong to Him. Yes, Jesus paid it all, but that reality must never produce in us a mindless, cavalier approach to worship and service to God.

Pastor Ryan continues this new, brief sermon series through the Book of Leviticus as he preaches a message titled "The Consecration of the Priests" during this Wednesday Evening Service.

Consecration is an act of the will. Consecration is led by the Holy Spirit, for we are temples of the Holy Spirit. Consecration is an ongoing act of worship in the life of the believer. Human beings grow by degrees, either toward holiness or not.

Date: October 5, 2025 |Preacher: Rev. Rob Herron |Series: The Life of King David

It is a call to let go, let God, and walk in true freedom.Through honest reflection and real life experiences, Lase shares how obedience, surrender, and holiness are not outdated concepts. They are the foundation of intimacy with God. This is not about perfection; it is about allowing God to refine your heart, renew your desires, and lead you into greater purpose.If you have ever felt the tug to let something go or wondered what letting God really looks like in your daily walk, this episode will speak straight to your spirit.Watch the full episode on YouTube:https://youtube.com/@letstalkwithlase?si=J8bVZCQ4bRLqg8U2Follow us for updates and encouragement: Instagram | TikTok | YouTube Shorts — @letstalkwithlase

Crystal Rivers | Word for Now | Oct 6, 2025 Life's true essence isn't found in possessions but in knowing Christ intimately and becoming like Him. You are already God's child—this discussion is settled. You carry divine DNA, and your journey is allowing these spiritual genes to manifest until it becomes undeniable that you belong to God. You carry an unusual enrichment of the Holy Spirit—Scripture calls this the "earnest" or "first fruits." There's a literal saturation of God's presence concentrated in you. Creation itself groans for your manifestation, and these groanings are captured in the seven feasts of Israel—actual times when the Holy Spirit's voice becomes more tangible in creation. When cosmic signs appear during these appointed times, discern what God is saying. Jesus submitted to this protocol: He died during Passover, rose during First Fruits, and the Spirit came on Pentecost. Develop spiritual intelligence. Numbers in Scripture—Job's seven sons and three daughters, his 7,000 sheep and 3,000 camels, Daniel's twenty-one day fast—reveal angelic operations and wisdom patterns that godly people trapped on earth through their walk with God. Multiple spiritual forces broadcast to you simultaneously, like earth's atmosphere: 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen. Each gas represents different spirits trying to communicate. Nitrogen isn't giving you life—oxygen is. Consecration increases the "oxygen" in your spiritual atmosphere, amplifying God's voice until He becomes the dominant influence. Apply the greenhouse effect: specific atmospheric conditions allow specific seeds to grow. Expose yourself to something's atmosphere through consecration, and that thing's wisdom blossoms in your life. Joshua was told to meditate on God's Word day and night so his way would be prosperous. Increase God's presence in your life and experience prosperity. Understand Kronos versus Kairos. Kronos is ordinary time under wickedness's influence—"the days are evil." But when filled with the Spirit, you break into Kairos—time under God's influence where His purposes manifest. This is redeeming time. Spiritual sight operates differently than natural sight. In the spiritual realm, you see by the light within you. Satan's light makes his deceptions appear normal. Under his light, Peter tried preventing Jesus from the cross. But under God's light, Jesus saw the joy set before Him. Once you can see something spiritually, it becomes tangible—it's just a matter of prolonged engagement. The ten plagues of Egypt weren't God directly killing but His light progressively infiltrating Egypt, revealing the pain demonic powers were already inflicting. Each plague represented increasing measures of God's presence. At the third plague, magicians encountered "the finger of God"—a threshold where they could no longer replicate God's presence. Consecration does this in your life: increases God's presence until darkness's tricks stop working. This same finger that wrote the Ten Commandments now writes on your heart through communion with God. Where the Spirit is Lord—the only one speaking—there is liberty. When you create that atmosphere, plagues break out: the death of this age's gods in your life. Things gripping your soul lose their hold. Strongholds are pulled down. Paul said if you live according to the flesh, you'll discover you're not truly alive. But if through the Spirit you mortify the deeds of the body, you will live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. Sonship is about God's glory influencing, ruling over, saturating you until your genetic correspondence with God manifests visibly. You're designed to be a true human being: a priest and king after the order of Melchizedek. Take advantage of strategic times like the Feast of Tabernacles—times when creation's groaning intensifies and the Holy Spirit's voice becomes more accessible. Consecrate yourself during these seasons through worship, meditation on God's Word, and fasting. Remember: repentance isn't saying "I'm sorry"—it's changing your mind. Transformation isn't trying harder; it's exposure to the right light. In God's light, Satan appears undesirable. In God's light, you see yourself as you truly are in Christ. The closer you draw to God, the more your sonship manifests, the less influence this age has over you, and the more you realize you're born of God, carrying His DNA, destined for glory. This is your inheritance. Walk in it. Zoom every weekday : http://www.caveadullam.org/zoom

The Pattern of God's Sovereignty in ScriptureThe events surrounding Christ and the conspiracy against Him should not surprise us when we consider the broader biblical narrative. From Adam and Eve's fall in the garden to the promise of a victorious offspring, Scripture consistently demonstrates humanity's failure to live by God's word alongside God's unwavering plan for redemption. Abraham's test with Isaac and the deliverance of Israel from Egypt highlight a recurring pattern: God's promises come to fruition through unexpected or seemingly impossible circumstances. Even in situations marked by human failure, sin, and death, God remains sovereign, orchestrating history toward His redemptive purpose.The Threat of Malicious MenIn the context of the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the chief priests and scribes sought to kill Christ. These leaders, charged with upholding holiness, we engage in unholiness. They were conspiring in secret, out of fear of the crowds, rather than a genuine fear of the Lord. Their actions reveal a tragic distortion of human priorities: they were willing to reject God's appointed Messiah to preserve their own power and image. Judas, who aligned himself with them, illustrates the conscious surrender to evil that is possible when hearts turn from God. Here, Scripture reveals the stark reality of human sinfulness in contrast to God's ultimate control. This is showing a horrible state where men join to conspire with Satan literally.Christ as the Passover LambAmid conspiracies, chaos, and betrayal, Christ demonstrates His role as the Passover Lamb. Luke emphasizes the timing and preparation of the Passover meal, showing Christ's sovereign orchestration of events. Though Judas knew that the meal would take place, Christ provided just enough guidance for His disciples to prepare without compromising His redemptive plan. Christ proves that he is a prophet and he will lay down his life at the appointed time. Like the original Passover in Egypt, where the blood of the lamb saved God's people, Christ willingly submits to the suffering and betrayal that will lead to the cross, fulfilling God's plan without error or accident. He demonstrates that redemption comes through precise divine timing, not human schemes.Our Redemption and Consecration in HimChrist's work as the Passover Lamb extends beyond historical events; it consecrates and redeems His people. While Israel's festivals often fell short of their intended meaning due to human sin, Christ fulfills them perfectly, securing redemption once for all. He comes to undeserving people, covers their sins, and establishes a definitive exodus from death to life. Luke presents this to assure us that nothing in our lives surprises God because He is faithful and so powerful that he fulfills his promises. Our identity, consecration, and strength are found in Him, the Lamb of God, who calls us to bow the knee and live in the fullness of His redemption.

He discusses the significance of waiting upon the Lord and praying according to God's will, rather than personal desires. Samuel highlights the transformative power of waiting and prayer, which refine and prepare individuals for the fulfillment of God's promises. He draws parallels between the disciples' experience in the upper room and the process of spiritual growth, stressing the need for obedience, submission, and alignment with the Holy Spirit. Ultimately, Samuel encourages a prayer life that seeks God's will, allowing for personal transformation and a deeper connection with the divine.

In this conversation, Jason sits down with Ryan Johnson, pastor of Church Untitled in downtown Vancouver. Ryan shares openly about how the church began after the collapse of another, walking through seasons of anxiety and depression, and learning to cultivate a dependence on God while shepherding people who were hurting. What started with a small group meeting in the corner of a nightclub has grown into a worshipping community in the heart of the city marked by prayer, consecration, and God's presence.Jason and Ryan explore themes that matter deeply to pastors today, including:- Consecration before vision: The formative role of Joshua 3:5, focusing on internal formation and God's presence ahead of programs and plans.- Dependence vs. strategy: Learning to follow the Spirit's guiding, and how to keep choosing dependence even after growth and momentum arrive.- Worship as shepherding: How worship shapes us beyond emotion, trading what we feel for what we know of God, and the importance of extended spaces of prayer and song.- Ongoing healing for leaders and churches: Naming self-protection, practicing vulnerability, and letting love perfect what fear distorts in the life of a community.- Citywide unity and hunger: Stories of collaborative worship nights, overflowing prayer ministry, and a growing hunger for God across ages and backgrounds.If you've walked through church hurt, or are leading people who have, this episode offers an honest, hope-filled account of how God turns ruins into foundations and pain into worship.Show Notes- Church Untitled | https://www.churchuntitled.com/- Fall City Meetups⁠⁠ | https://www.thepastorate.ca/gatherings- Lead Pastors Fellowship⁠⁠ | https://www.thepastorate.ca/lpf⁠⁠- Fall 2025 Pastors Retreat at Barnabas Landing⁠⁠ | https://www.thepastorate.ca/events/pastorsretreatfall2025- The Pastorate Listener Survey⁠ | https://www.thepastorate.ca/surveyThank You to Our Episode SponsorSpecial thanks to the Canadian Bible Society for making this episode possible.
