Episode 22: Understanding The Fathers Heart: Many Believers today don't understand the heart that our Father in Heaven has for us. He's the perfect image of a perfect Father. In this episode I talk about how to understand Gods view of you. With this understanding, you can break rejection, discouragement, abandonment, the list goes on. Listen and be encouraged today.

In this heartfelt episode, we delve into the transformative journey of fatherhood, exploring the nuanced difference between mere presence and true emotional connection with our children. Jon Brown shares profound insights on the roles of a father, likening it to being both a warrior and a gardener—disciplined yet nurturing. We discuss the delicate balance of empowering our children's voices without relinquishing parental authority and the unexpected wisdom found in bedtime conversations. Jon shares his reflections for any father striving to deepen family bonds and grow alongside their loved ones.----------This episode is sponsored by The Adventure of FatherhoodOrder The Adventure of Fatherhood children's book hereCheck out the TEDx----------Want to learn more about The Adventure of Fatherhood?https://www.adventureoffatherhood.com/https://www.rebelandcreate.com/Each week Ned sits down with a dad and asks him to open up his field notes and share with other men who find themselves on the Adventure of Fatherhood.Follow us:Instagram: www.instagram.com/rebelandcreateYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/rebelandcreate/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rebelandcreate

SEEDS ARE US-THE MINISTRY OF SEED PLANTING   My grandpa and grandma Erickson homesteaded 600 acres of farmland in Montana around 1900. The stories that I remember them telling us about those days are both thrilling and agonizing. The labor and uncertainty of life that they endured to make a farm life possible is beyond our comprehension. Our society today cannot grasp the amount of effort that it took to build our nation and its people.  Around 1925 my grandparents were forced to sell their farm and move south, ending up in California. They were forced out of their farm life because of the power of early cold winters killing the seed before it could be brought to harvest. As kingdom people serving our Lord, you and I are also seed planters and tillers of the soil. And by the miracle of God living in us, we are also planted seeds in the ground.  Because his grand plan orchestrates our life, we have been selected to be planted in fields of his choosing; until we realize that "the steps of a good person are ordered of the lord," we can become frustrated by the place or the condition that we are in at the moment. Some of that is geographical. "Why are we in this city, Lord? While another frustration is our spiritual growth and wondering why it is so slow. Both of these frustrating and confusing questions can be settled by realizing we are seeds in the hand of God, planted at his discretion. Be careful not to judge each day of your journey as the end of your journey. If you sit on the edge of your bed every night wondering if you were a success today, you will go to bed discouraged most nights. However, if you understand the seasons of your life and what it takes to mature the seed that you are, you will enjoy the journey. Remember our heroes of Hebrews 11 that most of them died before realizing the completion of their ministry. But they died in faith knowing that we would complete their journey and their purpose in our journey.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/   RUMBLE.COM/DRGEORGEWATKINS https://rumble.com/account/content?type=all

THE VOICES THAT ARE NEVER HEARD   On one of our many journeys as a family, dad ended up preaching in Tonawanda, New York, close to Niagara Falls. So, of course, we couldn't miss the opportunity to visit that historic site. At one point, we found ourselves going down a tunnel that took us under the falls; what I experienced there as a teenager has stayed with me my entire life. The roar of the falls filled the decimal range in our hearing, so there was no more room for the sound to enter our ears. Even if we screamed very loud into each other's ears, no understandable sound was registered. The sound coming off the following water completely saturated our ability. Do you hear anything else? Our greatest gift from heaven is the voice that our heavenly father has given us and the free will to choose our own words. God has chosen us as independent players in his great army of created sons and daughters on earth. The power of our voice and the words we choose to use have the potential to shape the very kingdom of God that we've been called into. The words we speak are alive and have the potential to create life or destroy it.  Scriptures tell us that death and life are found in the power of the tongue.  (Pro 18:21) and they that love it, she'll eat the fruit thereof. Two things will hinder our voice and cause us to lose our position as creators of life in this great kingdom of God. The first one is possibly the most crippling of all; the lack of use. Many believers have not been taught that their voice was meant to be used to change the world around them. Because of that lack of understanding, a considerable part of the army of God is mute. The second thing that hinders our voices is the overabundance of sound around us that fills the atmosphere. Was so much white noise that we couldn't hear ourselves speak. Why even try? We think as we become discouraged and eventually quit speaking. Today I call for the voice of the body of Christ to speak out loud and bold. In your mouth is the key to the salvation of the world. The apostle Paul declared that it was in the mouth of those that hurt him that it made the difference in the outcome of their life. Use the greatest gift God has given you, the power of speech, to declare your and your generation's freedom.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/  

IT'S TIME TO SPEAK UP OR LOSE YOUR PLACE IN THE LINE   In my background, a person who would not speak up for themselves would be called a "mealy mouth." I'm not sure if that's a real word, but everyone knew what it meant. From the kid on the playground to the fearful housewife, their life became a living hell because they didn't speak up. Our current culture has a term that says, "see something, say something." I think that pretty well frames the thought God dropped in my heart to speak of today. It's time for us to cry out to the Lord and the society around us. During the years that Hitler's Germany prepared for the second world war was a slow erosion of social norms and private liberties. A Pastor named Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who eventually gave his life in resistance against the Nazi party and Hitler's oppression, made this statement famous.  Speaking for the church, he said, "when they came for the Jews, we said nothing; when they came for the gypsies, we said nothing. Then when they came for us, there was no one to help." We have lived in a bubble of self-denial that it could ever happen to us. But today, we face the same challenges by the voices that have risen around us demanding that we say what they want us to say and agree with what they believe in. A law in the Old Testament said if a woman was raped and did not cry out, she became guilty of the same sin. I can only imagine why they wouldn't cry out; the fear of retribution or shame, all those things would be at play. Today they are calling us names, trying to intimidate and bring shame. We still have a voice that goes directly to the Father; it's time for us to cry out. We still have the ability to speak up; when we see something to say something. I guarantee that cowards will always back up and run if you resist them.

WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS TO BE SELF EVIDENT   We call it natural law; some would say the law of nature or common sense. It's just the way life works. For instance, take the law of gravity. Let's try running that through the Supreme Court to see if we can change it. How about the law of seed time and harvest? Let's find some federal judge to change that one. Try this Jesus parable on for size. And the farmer went out and decided not to cast his seed on the ground, and when he had no harvest, he sued the city for lack of funding. Does that sound familiar with the current society were moving through? They have one thing in mind; doing away with God and his natural law. Our founding fathers said that we were endowed with these natural rights from our Creator. The mind of man thinks they can take their Creator to court and change his laws.  That just doesn't happen, folks. So let's hold on for a bumpy ride while God our Creator readjusts the focus that this world has back to embracing God's laws already established on earth. The scriptures tell us that the nations will rage and imagine a vain thing. How about that for a prophetic snapshot of what we're experiencing today? What could describe a generation of arrogant people who think they can change human genetics through willpower?  That just doesn't happen, folks. Therefore we hold steady, focused on the Lord and not the storms. If you keep your eyes on Jesus, you're guaranteed not to sink beneath the waves. If you feel yourself sinking, re-focus on Jesus; he'll get you back to the boat.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/

THE PURPOSE OF A POWER NAP   I hated naptime as a kid. If you have children, you probably know that's not very unusual. Who wants to lie down in the middle of the day when there's so much to do outside?  My mother was much smarter than me, and I didn't realize how much when I was five. She made a deal with me that she would lie down next to me at nap time, and if she went to sleep first, I could get up and play. I don't ever remember winning that competition. For some reason, my dad would nap on the living room couch. We always had a hand-crocheted afghan over the back of the couch, and he would pull it over him and take a snooze. And, of course, everyone took a nap Sunday afternoon because we had to be fresh and bright for Sunday night service. Our friends South of the border have what they call a siesta. In the more traditional nations, everything shuts down at noon, and the workers go home, have lunch and take a nap before returning to work. It seems that God was the one who created the first naps. For instance, Adam took a nap, and when he woke, he had a wife named Eve. Abraham took a nap and had an encounter with God concerning a covenant. Jacob took a nap and was introduced to the angels ascending and descending from heaven to earth. Jesus took a nap, and it gave the disciples their first lesson on how to quiet the storm. Peter also took a nap and was taught of the Lord concerning the gospel going to the Gentiles. To sum this up, dreams have shaped human history like nothing else. Much of the direction given to our old testament saints came out of naptime. If I had to guess God's logic in this procedure, I would say it's an excellent way to get us out of the way, so we don't interfere with the directions he's giving us for our journey. Naptime anyone?   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/

PLANNING AHEAD-DOES GOD KNOW YOUR TOMORROWS?   Does God really know the future and what will happen to us in our life? That sounds like such a silly question to ask on a Christian broadcast. Doesn't everybody believe that God knows every detail about the future because he has set it in motion and predetermined its outcome? Now hold on a minute; that sounds like a dedicated Calvinist believing that the sovereign God controls us like a puppet. Or we could be an extremist on the other side of that subject that believes that man is totally in control of his destiny by his faith or actions. But back to the question, does God know the future? Yes, I believe he does, but here's another question: Does God control the future? The answer to that one is, no, he doesn't; you do. To expand on that statement, let me tell you the difference between foreknowledge and predestination. God certainly has foreknowledge, but he does not predestinate or set the outcome of your life in place. The actions you take in life determine the outcome of your life. Foreknowledge is God's desire for you, and that's where the basis of personal prophecy comes from. Hearing that prophecy only becomes fulfilled when you act upon the directions you were given or the knowledge you have to obey. My understanding of how heaven operates is that when someone prophesies or predicts disaster and dark events, it is not set in stone; it is for our alert that we may change the outcome through the authority he has given us. If you have dark dreams and see disaster, don't take that as predestination; take it as a warning so you can do your part through prayer to change it.

FREE FROM SIN AND ITS MEMORY   When the scriptures tell us to have a renewed mind, it refers to the mind of Christ. Part of the conversion process is a change of thinking. Because of that, the greatest battle you may have is not outside of you, such as temporal temptations but inside, concerning your thought life. If the enemy of your soul can keep you trapped in the memory of your failures, then for all practical purposes, you are stuck in your development as a Christian. This isn't something that hinders your eternal dwelling place in heaven, but it does cripple you for your purpose on earth. Much of our church background has made us very conscience of sin. We are reminded in the sermons we hear and in our conversations about the things we should not and must not get involved in because it is a sin. If you live with a sin consciousness, you will continually find fault with yourself. And the guilt that will produce will drive you away from God. Hebrews 10 tells us that God has forgotten our sins and failures. Because we have the same abilities God has, we can also have our memory of those failures washed away and gone. This is why Romans 8:1 declares to us there is, therefore now, no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus. Today we declare that we are sin-free, and because of that, the memory of it has been taken away, and we are no longer guilty. We do not have a guilty conscious we have a sin-free conscious.  The scriptures tell us, "he who the son sets free is free indeed." Enjoy your freedom, my friend.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/

THE IN-BETWEEN TIMES   For those who have lived for a while, we quickly discovered that life is not one long party or vacation time. Somewhere in our youth, our good parents forced us against our will to clean our rooms and brush our teeth, which may be the first indication that life is not one long playground experience. When we saw dad leave early in the morning and come home dirty and tired, we had no clue what he was doing all day. All we knew in those days was there was always food on the table, and the house was warm at night. Then shock of shock, dad tells us that if we're going to have our car, we have to get a job and pay for it and also pay for our insurance. Now life is getting scary. Do you mean I have to support myself now? What's this thing coming to? By now, you're also catching the point that I'm talking about our spiritual journey. Our spiritual journey becomes one long party time when we discover that Jesus loves us and abides in us of a truth. It's revival time every day. Oh, how I love those sweet memories. However, just as it is in our natural life, so is it in our spiritual life.  What we discover about the spiritual walk we're on is that the greatest maturity happens to our character in the in-between times.  Ephesians six and 14 tell us that after we have done all of these things, were to stand and be firm. That's where spiritual maturity begins to shine when no one is looking, and we still maintain the strength of character and focus on the vision before us. The in-between times are given to us by our heavenly father, so we may have time to recoup, regroup, and be strengthened in the Holy Spirit for the journey ahead. Only God knows the challenges, and it allows us to prepare for them in the quiet times of our life. WHEN THERE ARE NO PROPHECIES OR VISIONS, DREAMS, OR ANGEL VISITATIONS, IT'S THE BEST OPPORTUNITY EVER TO LAY YOUR HEAD ON THE CHEST OF CHRIST, JUST LIKE THE APOSTLE JOHN, AND ENJOY THE JOURNEY.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/

DETERMINATION TRUMPS WEAKNESS   Well, there you go again, preacher; you sound more like Tony Robbins than you are the apostle Paul today. Well, I beg your pardon, but the truth be known, I sound more like Solomon, "the wisest man who ever lived." You know how I know that because Solomon warns us about being lazy and slothful in the book of Proverbs. If we stay in that condition, we will starve to death. Solomon told us in proverbs 6:6 go to the ant thou sluggard and consider her ways and be wise. v.7, which having no guide overseer or ruler  v,8 provides her meat in the summer, And gathers her food in the harvest. v.9 how long will you sleep or sluggard? When will you arise out of sleep? v.10 yet a little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep: v.11 so shall your poverty come as one that travels, And you're want as an armed man. So you see, Solomon was around a long time before Tony Robbins or any other promotional business that you may see. So let me say it again: Determination trumps weakness. Consider the weakness Jesus was in when he faced the cross for a moment. No one in history has ever been where Jesus was at that moment. He literally carried the weight of the world on his shoulders. Hebrews 12:2 tells us how he overcame his weakness and the abuse that had come to him both soul and body and won the prize.  First of all, he was determined to fulfill his heavenly father's will. To do that, the scripture tells us that he set the joy before him as a target. When you have a purpose and set the goals, you want to hit. Then invite God into the process, and Joy will take you through.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/  

THE SUSPECT IS IDENTIFIED AS A SON If someone was to ask me what the greatest weakness in the body of Christ is today, my answer might be surprising. Much of our church history, in modern times, is focused on social and moral sins that keep us from going forward with God. For me not to agree to that premise draws a fair amount of criticism, claiming I favor those sins, which is not valid. The Church has almost made a cottage industry by identifying all the things you can't or can do. As a young Christian, I knew exactly what I couldn't do, and it was some time before I knew what I could do as a Spirit-filled redeemed man. So my answer to the question why is the Church is spiritually retarded when by now, 2000 years later, we should be dominating every culture on the earth. It's a one-word answer.  Identification. In general, the body of Christ does not know who they are in Christ and that they are sons of the most high God with all privileges in rights. When the spiritual infants grow up and begin to live like adult sons in the kingdom, we will see the Church in its rightful position on the earth. We will shape history for the ages to come when that takes place.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/

GOD'S FULL-COURT PRESS   My basketball days are long behind me, and most memories of those few times I played have faded. I suppose my height had something to do with not being interested in basketball. Baseball was more my game, and I remember the summer leagues I was in; what fun. Then came my boys when they played on the basketball team in their school days. I made a lousy fan because I can't stand losing. As long as we were ahead in those games, I was a happy camper.  So in those days, I learned what a full-court press was. That's when the team all get together in their positions, push down, and make a basket. At least, that's my memory of it. I woke up in the middle of last night, and God dropped these words in my heart; God's full-court press. Then the Holy Spirit began to blow revelation on those few words, and I could hear the spirit of God telling me God has a plan for the situation we're in, and we're going to score.  Big Time. I'm sure you know God doesn't watch the news to see what he will do next, like some of us. You might say he has his finger on the scale and knows the outcome.  So encourage yourself in the lord and know that the things you hear from the lips of people with no spiritual source are all empty and foolish.  Today you need to hear this scripture quoted one more time; Trust in the lord with all of your heart, lean not unto your understanding in all your ways, acknowledge him, and he will direct your path. So there you go, it's a done deal.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/

COME HELL OR HIGHWATER   When the spirit of God dropped that on my heart today, all I could say was, father, you have a sense of humor. What in the world am I going to do with that? As usual, the Holy Spirit always has a plan that takes a little time to reveal itself. So it was long before it came tumbling into my mind, and we did a great program around perseverance, determination, never giving up, and a dozen other things that would have God's fingerprints all over it. When someone would say, "come to hell or Highwater," we would immediately know that they intend not to let anything stop them from reaching their intended goal. That sounds like what Jesus meant when he said, 'love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and all I saw all that I might and I neighbor as thy self.' So our confession today is this, no matter what comes our way, despite all the opposition, the shortcomings, and the lack of funds or strengths, we will serve the lord, come hell or Highwater.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/

YOU ARE THE GLOVE ON GOD'S HAND   Our spirit of generosity is among the many differences between us as a nation and the other nations of the world. We have long been known as the most generous givers to needy causes at home and abroad, and we have fed countries and defended nations.  Even in the time when war swept around the world and destroyed so many nations. When it was over, we were the ones that restored those nations.  Many inquiries have been made, and so many in-depth studies have been recorded trying to find the key or secret behind the American people being so generous. The secret is straightforward, and to those who understand spiritual principles, it is easy to find. We are generous and love to give because our heavenly father is generous, and we are made in his image. Like father like son and daughter. The spirit of generosity for those who understand the heart of God that is in them is released in more than just money and things. When the Red Cross calls for volunteers after a disaster or hurricane, thousands of American citizens travel far and wide from their homes to give their time to someone in need. The spirit of Christ is the spirit of giving. He gave himself as a sacrifice for us, and we are like him. In all reality, we are the glove on the hand of God that reaches out to those in need. When we shake someone's hand and greet or lay that same hand on someone's head and heal them, it is God's hand in our gloves doing the work. When Jesus prayed in John 17, we would be one with him in the same way that he and God the father are one. The results are a Christian people and a Christian nation with the same loving generosity God the father had when he gave Jesus to us as a savior. John 3:16 rings out loud and clear in this holiday season that we are entering into; for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believe it's on him should not perish but have everlasting life, For God's sake, not his son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through him might be saved. Be that glove to someone today.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/  

LIMITLESS GRACE    THERE ARE NO LIMITS TO THE POWER OF GOD THAT ENABLES US TO BE LOVED. When I think of the Grace of God, I instantly hear the old church song: "Grace, Grace, gods grace, grace that is greater than all my sins." Within the last 30 years, controversy has been brewing in the body of Christ concerning what they call the Grace message. Several voices have been raised worldwide that teach us about Grace beyond the limits of our traditional theology. Or at least the denominational world that we were raised in. In the season of my life, I am in, I have come to the conclusion that many of my teachers didn't have the whole story when it comes to some of the doctrines they were teaching.  However, to be fair to them and us, we can only walk in the light we have and be judged by that same light. But if that's where we stay, we will miss what God is revealing today to the body of Christ. And one of the subjects he is unfolding is the understanding of limitless Grace. The apostle Paul seemed to have a pretty good grasp of Grace when he told us that all things were lawful, but not all things were expedient. Unfortunately, that revelation is somewhat cloudy to us in this generation.  The little bit that I understand about that verse is that God does not judge us on the same scale; we judge ourselves, especially in the religious setting. As a young boy in the Pentecostal movement, I could've gone to hell for going to the movies or the Pool hall. To say that now seems laughable, but it was serious business in the small theological world that we lived in. So today, I embrace the Grace of God that gives me the power from heaven to understand and accept his love. And when I know his love, I will never be involved in the things that displease him. To me, that's the only safety barrier that I need to walk out his will in this life. The only law that you cannot break is the law of love.  God loved us first, and he will love us always.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/  

DON'T WORRY - BE HAPPY Today I would like to interest you in some health tips. Most of our time together has to do with our spiritual walk. However, today I want to talk about your health and well-being, something that will give you long life. And while I'm at it, I will undoubtedly throw in a few spiritual principles along the way. There's a catchy phrase IN a famous movie when the hero of the movie says," don't worry about it." Our Australian friends down under have a catchy phrase that says, "no worries." Hidden beneath these simple statements is a profound principle of life and health that God has woven within the fabric of our human DNA.  Worry, anxiety, frustration, and fear belong to the same family. In reality, these are commands from the Lord. Why would he command us not to have any anxieties about anything? Well, let me ask you a question. Why would your doctor tell you to go home and not worry anymore about your situation? Take two aspirins and a nap, and you'll feel better. Ok, you get the point. Our heavenly father is our divine doctor telling us this is how your body operates; if you worry, you will be in trouble physically. Why is that? Well, honestly, it's just the way he made us. It makes just as much sense to leave the oil out of our engine when we go for a ride in our automobile. Then we asked what had happened, and I didn't think that oil was necessary. However, the maker of that automobile and the engine said it was necessary and gave instructions to keep it full and fresh every time you went for a drive. And so is when our heavenly father says to have no anxieties or worries about anything. This command is not a heaven or hell issue, but if you break it, you may get there sooner than you think or even would like to. So today I will give you a tip.

IS SALVATION ENOUGH? OR IS THERE MORE?   I can still hear my mother hollering at me as I reached for the cookie jar just before dinner. "George, stay out of the cookies; it will ruin your dinner." To be honest with you, that really didn't make any sense to me, and I figured I was getting a head start on dinner with this wonderful cookie in my hand. Of course, I was too young to understand the chemistry of the body and the makeup of the system that keeps us alive. All I knew was that I saw that cookie and wanted it. Strange as it may seem, just the other night, while I was heading for the crackers, I heard my wife say, George, dinner is just about ready; don't be nibbling. So there's something within us that desires to be satisfied with small things or the emergency application of something to satisfy a pain or hunger. By now, I understand the need for nutrition and a well-balanced meal, and if I satisfy myself with a cookie, I won't have the desire to sit down at a full dinner. Over the last 65 years of active ministry, I have prayed with multiple thousands of people that have come to the altar or raised their hands, indicating they wanted to receive Jesus as their savior. We rejoice in the number of conversions, yet we wonder where many disappeared after they accepted Jesus. I will not second-guess the Holy Spirit on these occasions or judge those who have received Jesus by their outward actions. However, I am suspicious that many have taken Jesus as a cookie instead of a full meal. The experience of being saved has satisfied them enough to where they find no need to go any further into the kingdom of God. This breaks my heart because I know the potential in each person who comes to Christ.  I am convinced that salvation is essential for everything we do, but if that's where you stop, you will miss the purpose of salvation, and that is that we might become in the fall likeness of Jesus Christ.  If you may be at that point of discovery, ask the Holy Spirit to take you into the mysteries that lay ahead. The mysteries of Christ. The mysteries of godliness. If you follow the Holy Spirit into this wonderful journey, you will be fulfilled in the purpose God has planned for you.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/

GOD DRAWS STRAIGHT LINES WITH CROOKED STICKS   There is a very curious statement about David in acts 13:22 that declares he was a man after gods own heart and would fulfill all of the will of God. At first blush you scratch your head and wonder about a statement like that when you consider the history of David's life. Yes he had some mighty victories from time to time but he also had some major losses and failures. That is if you include murder and adultery.  Yet we have the Scriptures plainly stated that he would fulfill all of the will of God. How could that be since the majority of people believe that God only uses perfect people? Perfect people? Are there really any of those around that you know? It's like the old joke that says, when you found the perfect church it wasn't perfect anymore because you showed up. Take a quick survey if you would in the Testaments to see if we can find those perfect people that God used to change history. Abraham tried to pawn his wife off on the king as his sister. Moses ended up murdering an Egyptian hoping that he could deliver the children of Israel with that method. Gideon was hiding in a cave trembling in fear until the angel found him. Even the great apostle Peter denied Christ as he was led away to the Cross. The man who formed the foundation for the New Testament doctrines apostle Paul was a killer and a marauder of the Church. All of these were crooked sticks that somehow God drew a straight line with and shaped the history of the world and gave us our foundation of Christianity. Now with that in mind get up get dressed put your best face forward stop listening to the lies of the devil and your own self doubt and do the job God has called you to do on this earth.  You may be one of those crooked sticks but if you'll turn your self over to the Holy Ghost God will know how to draw a straight line with you in the sands of time.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/  

STAY IN YOUR LANE AND DO WELL   I am sure you have heard this statement before, "a jack of all trades and an expert at none." That's the world's view of people who fly from job to job like a butterfly in the springtime, somewhat like the five-year-old that wants to be a fireman, policeman, and astronaut all in one week. Only now, that five-year-old is 40 years old and still trying to find himself. I was coming home with Arlis last night from the store, and while navigating a turn with cars on each side of me, the spirit dropped this thought in my heart. Stay in your lane George, and you will do well.  I closely watched the white lane on each side of me and trusted it to keep me safe from the moving metal on each side of the car. I had confidence as long as I stayed in my lane, I would be fine. Of course, the spirit of God had more to say about it than just getting home safely. He was talking to me about the path of life we take and the gifts he has given us to fulfill. Some of us want to do so many things at once in the kingdom of God that we don't get much done.  Why would that be? Most often, the gift that God gave us that we should be exercising in so that it would grow is not as glamorous as somebody else's gift next to us. So we say to our self I'm going to do that for a while, but it never seems to come to a good conclusion. The apostle Paul said that when we come together, one has a tongue, another has a prayer, and then someone else has a teaching. And when it's all mixed together, it brings the glory of God and the revelation of Jesus Christ to the people around us. Every one of us has been challenged to stay in our lane until we are strengthened and developed. I wanted to be like Oral Roberts, but God had other ideas. Just like you, it took time for me to find myself and be happy, as they say, in my skin. I encourage you today to stay in the lane God has put you in, and you watch, prosperity will come, and you will excel in it.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/

THE POWER AND PURPOSE OF DREAMS   The gospel we know and perceive is like an onion; it has been put together in layers. And just like the onion has to be peeled back one layer at a time, so does the understanding of the gospel of Jesus Christ. If we are pursuing the face of the father, what we know today about the kingdom of God will be expanded tomorrow.  I often ask the Lord why I didn't tell you this sooner and why I had to wait so long to understand this particular revelation. Of course, most of the questions we ask we usually know already because the scriptures tell us that it is line upon line here, a little in there, a little, indicating that the revelation of Jesus Christ is, as we might say, in layers that must be peeled back one layer at a time. So it is with the subject of dreams and visions. We have been taught in our early days that acts 2:17 refers to Joel's prophecy about old men dreaming dreams. Was that they were remembering the old days and dreaming about them. Now we understand a different perspective of that scripture and begin to grasp a hold of the power of our dream life. The scriptures are full of visitations from God and angels in the dreams of men and women of old. They were guided and warned and taught spiritual principles as they slept at night when dreams came to them. I encourage you to open your Spirit to understand the depths of your dream life and invite God to visit you at night. Remember, what you honor Will be attracted to you.  How often have we heard one of our Bible teachers tell us all that it was just a pizza dream? In reality, God was trying to break through to your Spirit and soul in dreams. There's a reason that God put Adam to sleep when he created Eve out of his rib. It's the same reason God can speak to you in your dreams: you are out of the way and will not interfere. So happy dreaming.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/

THE POWER AND PURPOSE OF ASCENDING   The modern evangelical world has been robbed because of the prolonged use of the word rapture and ascending. For nearly 200 years, we have been taught that these two words are exclusive to the coming of the Lord and the end of the world. This exaggerated overuse of the focus on this post-pone rapture has caused the church to miss out on one of the essential tools we have to function as kingdom sons and daughters. A spiritual experience called ascending is beginning to be experienced by men and women worldwide. You may be more comfortable with the word stepping into the presence of the Lord. Others, such as prophet Bob Jones, said he went to heaven five times a day. However, you expressed it there is a place that many Christians have never visited called "the heavenly's." The apostle Paul said he went into the third heaven on one of his experiences.  We talk of dreams and visions, and yet we never question where we are when experiencing this level of relationship with the spirit of God. In what realm are we? There are many levels of spiritual experience outside of our world. John the revelator, who was on the island of Patmos, said he was "in the spirit on the Lord's Day." We modern charismatics would say, "we were having a good time on Sunday." Yet when he turned to see who was speaking to him, he was taken into a world of revelation and visions concerning Jesus Christ and the kingdom of God. What is your heart telling you today, and what is the desire you have to seek his face and follow his ways? Are you singing the same songs yet feeling unfulfilled? Are you praying, yet you never seem like you're touching the father's heart? Ask the Holy Spirit to catch you away, go higher into his presence, and listen to the sounds of heaven; you will never be the same.   YOU CAN GIVE HERE=http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/help-us.html   WEBSITE= http://www.georgewatkinsministries.com/home-page.html   FACEBOOK=https://www.facebook.com/FaithProducerstv/   Faith Producers address: PO Bx 1006 Mt Vernon, WA 98273   FAITHPRODUCERS INTERNATIONAL PODCAST https://faithproducers.podbean.com/   INSTAGRAM DRGEORGEWATKINS https://www.instagram.com/drgeorgewatkins/

Pastor Jose continues the series in the Fathers Heart this Sunday morning with his message on "The Father's Protection".

It is so easy to love the people that are really close to us, but when it comes to those that are not, it's not always so simple. Who was Jesus talking about when he commanded us to love our neighbors as ourselves? How can being a part of a community reveal the more of the Fathers heart? Join Natasha Shapoval for this weeks podcast as we explore these and more questions.

The story of two sons who related to the father based on their behavior, rather than experiencing the love he has for them.
