Greetings, welcome! Let's focus on getting our scriptures into our minds and hearts.

Greetings, welcome! Let's focus on getting our scriptures into our minds and hearts.

Hungry for the gifts of the Spirit but tired of striving? This session lays a clean foundation: the gifts flow from the life of Jesus, not the strength of Adam. We begin with Romans 6 to show how new birth changes your source—your old self was crucified with Christ, and now you live in Him. From that place, revelation replaces effort. It's not about talent or personality; it's about grace multiplied through the knowledge of God and the light that only the Spirit can give.We unpack the vital difference between information and light. You can recite verses on healing and prophecy, but without Spirit-given light, ministry remains hit-or-miss. Drawing from 2 Peter 1 and 1 Corinthians 2, we explore how the Spirit reveals what eye has not seen and ear has not heard, and why that revelation centers on the Son of God. When you see Jesus victorious over death, you gain a settled confidence to confront sin, cycles, and the works of darkness. That clarity fuels consistent, humble, Spirit-led action.Expect practical guidance you can use this month: create daily intentional time with God to listen before you speak, ask for specific light about Jesus' victory for your current barriers, and lead gatherings with room for revelation rather than noise. Real stories of Spirit-prompted outreach remind us this isn't theory—families are transformed when we follow the light. We close with focused prayer and impartation for pastors, leaders, and hungry believers, trusting the God who qualifies the unqualified and prepared good works long before we asked.If you're ready to move from effort to overflow, from information to illumination, this session will help you see Jesus more clearly and walk in the grace of His gifts. Subscribe, share with a friend who's hungry for more, and leave a review telling us where you're asking God for light this week.We love to hear from our listeners!

Prayer daily helps us start the day so much more equipped many times we focus on our problems, health issues, lack of, more than on what God says to us on His word.To believe in God is to believe in the power of His word.How it equips us, strengthens us and uplifts us.I decided to make more of these videos in hopes to encourage you . Especially when our body fails us know God is with us and He won't fail us.❤️God bless you, Arlene

What if the missing piece in your ministry isn't another plan, budget, or campaign, but a fierce commitment to unity? We invited Pastor Richie Johnson to walk us through a simple but disruptive claim drawn from John 17: when the church becomes one—truly one—the world believes, miracles multiply, and provision meets vision.We trace a living-room church plant that grew from four people to a vibrant congregation renovating a 53,000-square-foot former hospital. Along the way, doors opened in ways no spreadsheet could predict: a medically deaf woman was healed within seconds, a sign language ministry formed, weekly baptisms and Spirit infillings became normal, and a local construction owner—prompted by a conviction he couldn't shake—stepped in to lead a multi-million-dollar renovation. These stories are not hype; they are the fruit of a unified body aligned with the Spirit's purpose.We dig into practical takeaways: how to pray prayers only God can answer, how to diagnose whether your intercession has the aroma of unity, and how humility unlocks collaboration that outlives personalities and preferences. We connect insights from historic and global revivals—Azusa Street, Ethiopia, Thailand—to one clear pattern: unified prayer, unified purpose, unified labor. We also spotlight Richie's new resource, Gifted for More: A Practical Approach to Spiritual Gifts, and why gifts flourish when they are synchronized rather than siloed.If you're hungry for sustainable revival—salvation in your city, healing that serves the community, provision that outruns budgets—start where Jesus starts: become one. Listen, share with your team, and take one actionable step toward repairing relationships and aligning your prayers with God's mission.

A spiritual desert doesn't mean ministry stops; it means we discover what really carries us. We sat down with Pastor Cody Mayo to unpack a striking image that reframes leadership for a noisy, skeptical age: camels. Camels aren't pretty, but they are built for sandstorms. In the same way, prayer, fasting, Scripture, and Spirit-led love look ordinary from a distance, yet they are the load-bearing practices that move people through harsh seasons and toward hope.We trace the theme across Scripture. Paul learned at the feet of Gamaliel—“the camel of God”—a reminder that mentorship and formation matter when the road gets rough. Joseph's lowest moment meets a caravan bearing the balm of Gilead, revealing ministry as healing on the move. Then Rebekah steps to the well, eyes open to the cost, and makes trip after trip to water ten camels. That steady service becomes her road to destiny; the very burdens she lifted end up carrying her to her bridegroom. Along the way, we explore a core warning from Leviticus: never consume what carries you. Don't cut the disciplines that sustain your calling just because the desert feels long.If you've wondered how to lead faithfully amid social media noise, post-pandemic fatigue, and cultural fragmentation, this conversation offers a clear path: tend to the carriers first. Kneel the camels at the well before you reach for the meal. Measure a church not by platform shine but by the ministry it sustains day after day. You were made for this moment, equipped to breathe in the storm and keep moving with healing in hand.If this resonated, share it with a friend, subscribe for more conversations like this, and leave a review with one takeaway you're carrying into the week.We love to hear from our listeners!

We all wear glasses in this room. I am not referring to your contacts or the physical glasses your eye doctor prescribed. I am referring to your worldviewthe lenses through which you interpret everything you see: God, yourself, others, suffering, evil, history, the purpose of life, and the future. In our world today, people use a wide range of worldviews to make sense of reality. Theism holds that a personal God created and rules the world. Naturalism holds that the physical universe is all that exists. Pantheism identifies God with the world or sees God as present in everything. Postmodernism treats truth as personal, socially constructed, or tied to power. Nihilism holds that life has no ultimate meaning, purpose, or moral order. Most people do not wear only one pair of glasses. They switch lenses depending on what suits thema little theism for comfort, a little secularism for control, a little skepticism against authority, and a little self-rule for freedom. It may feel meaningful in the moment, but it cannot finally correct the vision problem. It still leaves reality blurred. One of the clearest symbols of modern humanitys hope was the World Trade Center. It took twelve years, from the earliest design stages in 1961 to the ribbon-cutting in 1973, to complete the Twin Towers, at a cost of about $900 million. The chief architect, Minoru Yamasaki, said the World Trade Center should become a living representation of mans belief in humanity, his need for individual dignity, his belief in the cooperation of men, and through this cooperation his ability to find greatness. That is a remarkable statement. The towers were meant to say something about us: our greatness, dignity, cooperation, and our ability to build a better world. Yet on September 11, 2001, it took less than two hours for those towers to fall, and nearly 3,000 lives were lost. Brothers and sisters, that is not merely a tragedy in American history. It is a parable of the world we inhabit. We live in a world of conflict, bloodshed, injustice, suffering, and death. We build towers and call them peace. We create systems and call them progress. We trust power, wealth, cooperation, technology, politics, and human greatness to bring stability. Yet again and again, the world proves unable to save itself. What we need is a biblical worldviewa way of seeing the world through the lens of Gods Word. Revelation pulls back the curtain on human historypast, present, and futureso we can see things as they really are. In Revelation 6:18, that curtain is drawn back on the world we know all too well: a world marked by conquest, war, famine, injustice, suffering, and death. Yet Revelation does not show us these things to make us despair. It shows us these things so we will see that the horsemen are permitted to ride only because the Lamb has the authority to open the seals. Before we go any further in this sermon, do not miss who opens each seal. It is not the horsemen. It is not the devil. It is not the antichrist. It is not kings, nations, armies, or empires. The Lamb alone has the authority to open the seals and to allow the horsemen to ride. As the Lamb opens the first four seals, do not think of the horsemen as strange figures waiting to be released in the distant future. Instead, think of them as the symbolic unveiling of the very world Jesus told us to expecta world marked by conquest, violence, exploitation, and death. Yet Revelation 6 shows us something the evening news never can: the horsemen ride only because the Lamb opens the seals, and He alone is worthy to do so. The Horsemen and the World Jesus Told Us to Expect We are now entering a section of Revelation that may challenge how many of us have been taught to think about the end times. For many Christians, passages such as Revelation 6 and Matthew 24 have been interpreted almost entirely as future events, often within a framework known as the seven-year tribulation. Many have also been taught that the church will be removed from the earth before that tribulation begins. I realize that, for some of you, that may be the only framework for understanding the end times you have ever known. Faithful Christians have held different views on these matters, so my goal is not to mock what you have been taught or force you into a different system. My goal is simply to ask you to do what the Bereans didto search the Scriptures and see whether these things are so (see Acts 17:10-11). What I want to show you is that Revelation 6 and Matthew 24 are not describing realities completely disconnected from the churchs present life. Jesus Himself told His disciples what this present age would look like: And Jesus answered them, See that no one leads you astray. For many will come in my name, saying, I am the Christ, and they will lead many astray. And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are but the beginning of the birth pains. (Matt. 24:4-8) Revelation 6 is not describing a strange world the church has never seen. It pulls back the curtain on the age Jesus describeda world marked by conquest, violence, exploitation, suffering, and death. The four horsemen symbolize realities that have marked human history since Christs ascension and will end when He returns. Yet Jesus words also keep us from hopeless despair. These things are not the end. They are birth pains. And as painful as birth pains are, they remind us that something is coming: the kingdom of Christ in all its fullness. Until that day, the horsemen ride. Like birth pains, the realities they represent continue throughout this age and increase in frequency and intensity as history moves toward the return of Christ and the birth of the new creation. But understand this: they do not roam at their own leisure. The Lamb reigns, and He alone has the authority to open the seals. So when the Lamb opens the seals and the four horsemen are revealed, we are shown the world Jesus told us to expect. But we are also shown what the world cannot see: conquest, violence, exploitation, and death are not rogue realities, nor do they unfold outside His sovereign will and authority. The White Horse: The Lust for Conquest (vv. 1-2) There is some debate about what the rider on the white horse represents, largely because certain features seem to mirror the way Jesus appears in Revelation 19:1116, particularly the white horse He rides and the crown He wears. Others believe the rider represents a false Christ or even the antichrist because he seems to mimic Jesus appearance. The problem with these views is twofold: first, Jesus is the One who opens each of the seals; and second, the remaining horsemen clearly represent forces of destruction rather than specific individuals. There are other suggestions, but the context of Revelation 6 suggests that the rider on the white horse belongs with the other three horsemen: war, famine, and death. Together, they represent the destructive realities that mark this present age. This connection may be reinforced by the first living creature who announces this horse and rider. Notice that the first living creature has the face of a lion, representing strength, majesty, and power among the wild creatures. It is this creature that introduces the rider on the white horse. If there is a symbolic connection between the creature who speaks and the horseman who appears, then the first horseman fittingly represents conquestthe lust of kings, nations, empires, and rulers to expand their power, secure their kingdoms, and impose their will on others. Unlike the kingdom Jesus will bring, this rider represents fallen humanity grasping for dominion apart from God. This horse and its rider promise peace but never deliver it. Their creed is simple: If we can gain enough territory, enough power, enough influence, enough control, then we can secure the future. But Revelation shows us the truth: conquest does not lead to peace. It prepares the way for the red horse. The Red Horse: The Vandalism of Peace (vv. 3-4) The Lamb then opens the second seal. In response, the heavenly creature with the face of an ox, representing domesticated strength, service, and laborthe kind of creature people use to bring forth life from the earthsays, Come! Then the red horse appears, and its rider is permitted to take peace from the earth so that people may slay one another. If the white horse represents the lust for conquest, the red horse reveals what that lust produces. The world promises peace through power, but Revelation shows that power seized apart from God does not preserve peace; it vandalizes it. When God gives sinners over to themselves, the restraints that hold back violence are removed, and the human heart is exposed as it is and what it is capable of. This is why the rider is given a great sword, symbolizing violence, bloodshed, and the destructive force of war. From the first murder in Genesis 4 to the wars and rumors of wars Jesus said would mark this age like birth pains in Matthew 24, human history has been stained with the blood of those created in Gods image. Nations rise against nations. Kingdoms seek to outdo kingdoms. Brother turns against brother. Neighbor turns against neighbor. When sin-cursed humanity seeks dominion apart from God, even in the name of peace, peace is among the first casualties. Make no mistake: the rider on the red horse is not rogue. He is only permitted to take peace from the earth because the Lamb has authority to break the second seal. He does not seize the sword; he is given a great sword. The breaking of the second seal shows that even the violence of this age is not outside the sovereign hand of the Lamb. While the serpent of old was a murderer from the beginning and is the father of lies (John 8:44), Humanitys propensity toward violence is the result of its fallen nature; it is mankind that robs the earth of the shalom it was created to experience. Yet even this violence remains under the authority of the Lamb. The Black Horse: Exploitation of Need (vv. 5-6) The Lamb opens the third seal, and the living creature with the face of a man says, Come! The irony is that while man symbolizes wisdom, reason, and the stewardship God entrusted to humanity, the black horse and its rider represent the exploitation of creations needs by mankind. The rider is seen holding a pair of scales, and a voice is heard saying, A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius, and do not harm the oil and wine. The scales symbolize measurement, rationing, and scarcity. In Johns day, a denarius was a days wage, so the announced prices of wheat and barley reveal a world where food is available yet barely affordable. A person could work all day and still barely survive. Meanwhile, the command not to harm the oil and wine suggests that while daily bread becomes burdensome for the poor, others comforts and luxuries remain protected. Human need becomes an opportunity for human greed. The black horse reveals that much of the worlds suffering stems from the corruption of human stewardship. Humanity was created in Gods image to cultivate the earth, care for one another, and administer justice for the good of mankind and the rest of creation. But when people seek dominion apart from God, the needs of the earth and those who live on it are twisted into opportunities for profit. When mankind is given over to itself, human beings exploit one another and anything else in creation that offers an opportunity to get ahead of their neighbor. Yet even here, the rider is not sovereign and does not ride beyond the authority of the Lamb. The Pale Horse: The Dominion of Death (vv. 7-8) The Lamb opens the fourth seal, and the creature with the face of an eagle says, Come! Consider what an eagle represents: swiftness, height, watchfulness, and the realm just above the earth. When John hears this single word, he sees a pale horse, and its rider is named Death, with Hades following him. While the eagle soars over the earth, the pale horse gathers what mans lust for conquest, readiness to kill, and greed producenamely, death. The horses color is disturbing. The Greek word translated pale (chlōros) denotes a greenish hue, suggesting the sickly color of decay, disease, and death. There is little left to the imagination with the name given to this rider. He is Death, and Hades follows behind him like a grave, collecting what death has taken. This is the world east of Eden, where sin has brought decay to everything God created good. Death follows kings and nations. Death follows war. Death follows hunger, poverty, disease, and the neglect of creation. Death is the final enemy, and no human kingdom, political system, technological advancement, or amount of wealth or power can ultimately escape it. But while the pale horse and its rider may terrify us, they are not sovereign. The Lamb is the One who breaks the seal. Death rides, yet the Lamb reigns. And all who belong to the Lamb are assured that in a world where the four horsemen are permitted to ride for a time, the One who opens the seals also says to His people: Fear not, I am the first and the last, and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades (Rev. 1:1718). Conclusion What the apostle John and the seven churches likely found most reassuring in the vision of the four horsemen is the reminder that it is the LambChrist Himselfwho breaks each seal and permits the horsemen to ride. The power wielded by rulers and nations is granted by the One who sits sovereignly on the throne. Revelation 6:18 is given so that we might see the world as it really is and see the Lamb as He truly is. The horsemen do not ride because chaos reigns. They ride because the Lamb opens the seals. And when the four living creatures cry, Come! their summons echoes the prayer Jesus taught us to pray: Your kingdom come, your will be done... (Matt. 6:10). The Lamb gives mankind over to its wickedness, not because evil is sovereign, but because He is accomplishing His sovereign purposes until His rule and reign are fully manifested on earth as it is in heaven. The four horsemen reveal to those who belong to the Lamb that Gods kingdom is indeed coming. Gods kingdom comes not only through salvation, but also through judgment upon everything that ruins His creation.

A surge of prayer opens the door: we plead the blood over nations and ask for Pentecost every day, not as a slogan but as a lived rhythm. From that first wave, we move into the heart of the mission—why God responds to movement, how desire must be made holy, and where true spiritual authority actually comes from. We share stories of people God called while they were working—some faithful, some flawed—and trace the difference between gifts used for self and gifts surrendered for the kingdom.The conversation turns practical and sharp. We unpack submission as a hierarchy of purpose, not a pecking order of people. On your field, I follow you; on mine, you follow me. That exchange builds trust, kills ego, and multiplies impact. When we prefer one another, offense loses its grip, unity deepens, and teams move faster with less friction. We explore how unsubmitted ambition weakens ministry, why correction protects calling, and how a culture of mutual preference becomes a catalyst for revival at scale.Then the room becomes an altar. We pray for God to burn away impure motives and ambitions, to align our hearts with a kingdom moment rather than a personal moment. We ask for pure desires, pure motives, and the courage to decrease so Christ increases. The vision expands: a church so united and surrendered that billions can be added in this last hour. We close with a tangible step—gathering for prayer at Azusa Street—standing where past fire fell, asking God to do what only He can do through a people willing to be poured out.If this resonates, tap follow, share it with a friend who's hungry for more, and leave a review telling us where God is stretching you right now.

What if entire cities were stopped by conviction and gym floors turned into altars? We open with raw intercession and move straight into frontline reports of people receiving the Holy Ghost and being baptized, then map out ten bold markers we believe are shaping the future of the church: sudden conversions in public spaces, miracles that honor Jesus and not personalities, and a holy reverence that cuts through our distractions and brings clarity back to our motives.We get candid about “kingdom wealth” and why resourcing follows assignment, not ego. That means planning for a God-sized vision even when the current budget looks small—paired with integrity, transparency, and a bias for people over projects. We also lean into a hard but hopeful truth: power and persecution often arrive together. Courage is the expectation, not comfort. That sets the stage for a practical, urgent push into digital evangelism. Phones and platforms are pulpits now; teaching, testimonies, and thoughtful content can travel faster and further than ever. Cut the fluff, lift up the gospel, and serve the global body with excellence.Unity becomes the spine of the whole conversation. Drawing on John 17, we talk about a oneness that rejects envy, silences petty divisions, and centers everything on kingdom purpose. A militant church isn't angry; it's anchored—loud with love, clear with truth, and ready for public faith matched by private holiness. Along the way, we point to fresh resources and ongoing mentorship designed to help you steward growth, disciple new believers, and build systems that can handle the weight of revival. If you've felt your vision outgrowing your means, or your timeline outpacing your tools, this is your nudge to pray boldly, plan bravely, and post with purpose.If this resonates, subscribe, share it with your team, and leave a review so more leaders can find it.

Burnout shouldn't be the price of faithfulness. We open with fresh stories from Tennessee, Great Britain, and Ireland, then get honest about a quiet crisis: leaders who preach healing while living exhausted. From there we anchor in Scripture—Exodus 15, Psalm 147, Jeremiah 33, Deuteronomy 28—to remind ourselves that God not only sends us, he sustains and heals us. The message is both pastoral and practical: exhaustion is not sacrifice; it's often self-reliance disguised as virtue.We walk through Jethro's blunt counsel to Moses as a map out of guaranteed burnout and into ministry longevity: delegate, share the load, and stop treating availability like righteousness. Sabbath emerges as a courageous act of trust, not a day off you fill with ministry planning. When we cease from building, we confess the truth—God runs the world. We unpack the Hebrew texture of rest that means settle, dwell secure, be at ease, and we connect it to Jesus' call to the weary: come, and receive restorative rest.Then we get very concrete. Protect a weekly Sabbath and put it on the calendar. Turn off devices, look your family in the eye, read together, walk, laugh, and let unhurried time repair what hurry has frayed. Honor sleep as sacred—eight hours as an act of faith, not weakness—because sleep guards judgment, regulates emotions, sharpens discernment, and fortifies health. You are not the Savior; Jesus is. You do not give the increase; Jesus does. That truth frees you to lead with clarity, finish your race strong, and model a life ordered by wisdom instead of adrenaline.If this resonates, share it with a friend who needs permission to rest. Subscribe, leave a review, and tell us one practice you'll adopt this week—Sabbath on the calendar, devices off, or an earlier bedtime. Your story might be the nudge another leader needs to heal.We love to hear from our listeners!

John 11:32-37 Romans 12:15;Hebrews 4:15,16

What if the greater works Jesus promised aren't reserved for spiritual elites, but for anyone who chooses to align with Him today? We dive into the heart of apostolic ministry—relationship over performance—and show how abiding in love unlocks practical sensitivity to the Spirit. Through Scripture, stories, and simple frameworks, we explore how to see and hear what the Father is doing, then act with courage even when the room feels cold or resistant.We unpack John 14:12 and John 12:26 to reset motives and methods: serving is following, and following means being where He is. From there, we draw a sharp, freeing line between faith, hope, and love. Faith accesses what already exists in Christ—justification, peace, and grace—while hope expects what has not yet appeared. This shift changes how we approach spiritual gifts. Rather than “willing” outcomes into being, we agree with what God has already spoken and move in step with His voice. That's the difference between apostolic confidence and mystic hype: our evidence is anchored in a finished word, not in feelings or optics.We also bring it down to street level. The gift of faith flows from a settled conviction about God's authority and nearness. Prophecy becomes declaring what God said, not what the room suggests. When atmospheres oppose, we close our natural eyes to agree with what we know in the Spirit and speak the end from the beginning. Testimonies remind us that results follow obedience, not theatrics. For leaders, intercessors, and everyday believers hungry for authenticity, this is a roadmap: abide in love, attend to His voice, and act from faith in what already is while hoping for what will appear.If this resonates, share it with a friend who needs courage, subscribe for upcoming live Q&A and impartation sessions on the gifts, and leave a review to help more people discover the show.

This week we have Leo bringing the word on what it means to allow Gods word to be the manual for our lives! Be blessed!

Rejecting broken people isn't discernment, and it isn't holiness. It's just rejection dressed up as “being spiritual.” We speak plainly about what God expects from the church when a son or daughter fails: restoration, reconciliation, and a spirit of meekness that makes room instead of pushing people out.We also share what's ahead for the Los Angeles Holy Ghost Crusade (May 26 through June 1), including the growing team, the expectation for miracles, and the apostolic training we're building around altar work, unity in the partnership of faith, the gifts of the Spirit, and the fivefold ministry. We believe God is still filling people with the Holy Ghost, still saving, still healing, and still calling people into purpose.The conversation turns to the restoration of prodigals and wounded leaders, grounded in Scripture: Joel's promise that God restores lost years, David's confession that the Lord restores the soul, Jeremiah's assurance that God heals wounds, and Paul's command in Galatians 6:1 that the spiritual restore those overtaken in a fault. We lean into Psalm 139 to remind every listener there is no place you can fall where God's presence can't reach, and we go to Luke 15 to show the Father's heart that keeps searching “until he find it.”We close with a direct challenge: step away from gossip spaces, accusation forums, and anything that trains your spirit to speak death. Choose the King's way, tell the wounded the truth, and make room for the sons and daughters God still calls His own.

Burnout doesn't just drain your body, it reshapes your theology. When we start believing the kingdom can't move without our constant effort, exhaustion turns into a twisted badge of honor and we quietly accept anxiety, chronic fatigue, and stress as “normal” for ministry.We're coming to you from Tennessee after powerful prayer meetings and a week with leaders and young people who know how to pray. From there, we zoom out to a global burden: restoration. We believe God is restoring His kingdom work and the full operation of five-fold ministry, and that kind of multiplication demands leaders who can finish strong. That's why we speak plainly about a quiet crisis among ministers: many who carry healing for others are living paralyzed by exhaustion themselves.We walk through Scripture that confronts the culture of overwork and heals the inner life. Exodus 15:26 reminds us the Lord is our healer, and we pray for healing in mind, emotions, and body. Exodus 18 shows Moses on the edge of burnout until Jethro calls it out and points him toward delegation and wisdom. Then we get intensely practical about Sabbath rest and sleep: Shabbat means to cease, and it proves trust in God rather than self-reliance. Psalm 127 calls sleep a gift, and we talk about what sleep deprivation does to clarity, emotions, decision making, and long-term ministry longevity.If you're a pastor, leader, volunteer, or simply a believer carrying heavy responsibility, press play and take this as your permission to stop glorifying exhaustion.

By Peter T Burchard - There are spiritual sacrifices more valuable and more important than our financial offerings. This message explores Gods Word as to what sacrifices are important to Him.

A lot of people say they want the gifts of the Spirit, but what if what we really want is control, influence, and a ministry that “works”? We sit down with Pastor Richie Johnson for a focused, honest mentoring session on spiritual gifts, consecration, and why God refuses to be treated like a transaction. If you've ever chased prophecy, healing, miracles, tongues, or discernment and still felt empty, this conversation names the real issue and points to a better way.We talk about why spiritual gifts tests can miss the point, because the gifts are about the Source, not the spotlight. Pastor Johnson shares how his book Gifted For More was written, why so many believers are searching for answers, and what it looks like to measure success by obedience to Jesus rather than platform performance. We also dig into prayer and fasting with a needed correction: disciplines matter, but they can't be used to buy power. God wants us, not our leverage.From there, we get practical and uncomfortable in the best way. We explore consecration as being “full” of something, the gift of giving as a Spirit-led grace that funds end-time revival, and why God's delays are often mercy when motives are still being purified. You'll also hear testimony about open doors in Kenya and Uganda and how promises spoken in prayer can come to pass on God's timeline.If this helps you, subscribe, share it with a hungry believer, and leave a review so more people can find it.

DO YOU FEEL LIKE FEAR HAS A GRIP ON YOUR LIFE? In a world where 70 percent of news coverage is designed to make you feel afraid or threatened, it is easy to lose your peace. In this message, we dive deep into how to break free from the spirit of fear and walk in the power, love, and sound mind that God has promised us. Today we look at the recent events in Guadalajara, Mexico, where a city of six million people was paralyzed by fear during a cartel lockdown. We compare the actual statistics of danger to the overwhelming feeling of dread that gripped the community. This serves as a powerful reminder that the enemy uses fear as a recipe to keep us stagnant and hidden. Fear does not satisfy; the more we meditate on it, the more it grows. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN IN THIS VIDEO: THE GUADALAJARA STORY: A real-world example of how fear spreads faster than actual danger. THE MEDIA TRAP: Understanding why 50 to 70 percent of news is framed around loss and threats. THE BIBLICAL VACCINE: Breaking down 2 Timothy 1:7 and the three gifts God gives us to combat anxiety. THE ORIGIN OF FEAR: How fear started with Adam and Eve and how it manifested in the life of Job. CHAPTERS: 0:00 Introduction and Future Plans 1:15 Lessons from the Guadalajara Lockdown 3:20 Comparing Statistics: Fear vs. Reality 4:45 The Vaccine for Fear: 2 Timothy 1:7 6:30 How Mainstream Media Hooks You 8:15 From FOMO to Hiding: Adam and Eve 10:00 The Power of Words and Jobs Dread God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-discipline. It is time to stop meditating on what makes you afraid and start focusing on the truth of Gods Word. IF THIS MESSAGE BLESSED YOU, PLEASE LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE!

Start with the heart, not the blueprint. That single idea reframes the way we think about ministry, leadership, and everyday service. We draw a clear line from Exodus 25–40 to our modern rhythms and show why God insists on consecration before construction and holiness before hustle. If you've ever felt pressure to produce results fast, this conversation offers a liberating pattern: finish what God spoke, honor the details, and let His presence do what your effort cannot.We walk through the tabernacle narrative as more than ancient architecture. It becomes a living template for alignment, where willing offerings precede precise instructions and community covenant holds the work together. The theme is consistent: God's kingdom is not chaotic; it is beautifully ordered, and that order protects intimacy rather than stifles it. Along the way, we take a sober look at shortcuts and substitutions—why they promise glory but leave us empty—and we celebrate the quiet victories of those who serve without applause.You'll hear how unity is both miracle and mandate, shaped by truth rather than trend. Reports from global ministry moments, including a surge of hunger and alignment in Brazil, remind us that when people rally around purpose, doors open and momentum builds. We also speak directly to volunteers and leaders carrying “small” assignments: ushers, translators, sound teams, intercessors, teachers. The tabernacle needed every piece, and so does the church. Your portion matters, and when it's joined in covenant, it becomes a place where God's presence rests.If you're ready to trade hurry for holiness and hype for alignment, this episode will steady your hands.

In 1 Timothy 4:11-16, the Apostle Paul closes chapter 4 by explaining to Timothy that godly ministry is patterned by godly character -- via five areas in particular. Paul also instructs his protege to wholeheartedly progress as a believer & minister of the Gospel by reading, teaching, and exhorting Gods Word. If we are to progress in OUR Christian walk (and truly live out our faith), we must prove it by persistently watching ourselves and our doctrine closely. The post Prove It: Progressing in Godliness appeared first on Caz Church.

Ever felt a quiet nudge that wouldn't let go? We dive into how those whispers become world-shaping moments when you dare to obey, featuring Pastor Condon of Infinite Church and the riveting backstory behind his new book, Endless Possibilities. From worship ministry to church planting, he walks us through the messy, human process of discerning God's voice as ideas and instincts—and the bold choices that turn vision into reality.When the pandemic shut their rented venue, a stunning opportunity surfaced: a $3 million facility they couldn't afford. Instead of scaling the dream down to a down payment, they asked for the full miracle. The church rallied for 30 days, “fell short” on paper, and then watched a neighboring congregation initiate a merger, the seller accept a creative offer, and a seven-figure gift arrive just days before closing. The result? A debt-free facility and a community renewed in courage. It's a masterclass in faith leadership, resource mobilization, and practical obedience under pressure.We also explore how creativity springs from trust. A simple nudge led to the song “Cover Me,” which went on to impact millions—evidence that small acts can ripple far beyond our plans. Along the way, we offer clear takeaways for pastors, planters, and everyday believers: how to test a nudge, why faith often looks illogical, how to push past analysis paralysis, and how to surround yourself with people who expand your faith. If you're sitting on a dream—start the church, buy the building, teach the study—this conversation will help you take the next step with confidence.Ready to move from whisper to action?

Why does the world need the Bible? In this Missions Month message from Psalm 119:89-104, Pastor Paul Chapman presents three compelling reasons the Word of God stands above every other book ever written. In this sermon, you'll learn: ⏱ The world is looking for something supernatural.

What if the difference between a stagnant ministry and a multiplying one is a single idea: flow. We unpack how movement—not mere activity—creates life in a church, drawing from vivid biblical metaphors of rivers that bring renewal and a bloodstream that sustains the body. With guest pastor and author Brother Sayers, we chart practical pathways that guide people from seekers to believers, believers to disciples, and disciples to ministers, while guarding against the bottlenecks that keep gifted people on the sidelines.We break flow into three domains—into, within, and out of the church—and examine three vital streams across them: people, resources, and service. You'll hear how to build ministry pathways that actually move, why rotating and releasing leaders accelerates growth, and how to spot red flags like centralized control, unclear roles, and overprogramming. On the resource side, we talk cheerful giving, financial transparency, and the mindset shift from scarcity to stewardship that funds mission without burning out a few faithful givers.Service culture gets a hard look too: how to cultivate joyful volunteers, avoid burnout, and extend impact beyond four walls through collaboration, district events, and community service. We also introduce a simple measurement model—lead and lag metrics—that helps leaders audit momentum and make spirit-led, practical adjustments. The challenge lands personal and clear: tend your spiritual inflow through prayer and the Word, then pour out. Be a river, not a reservoir.Along the way, we share updates from Europe, celebrate church milestones, cast vision for the New York crusade, and invite you to join a movement that measures what moves and sends people with purpose. If you're ready to replace busywork with meaningful motion, press play, take notes, and start unblocking the stream.

What if the dried-up brook isn't a dead end but your doorway to the next miracle? We unpack Elijah's journey from Cherith to Zarephath as a practical framework for modern faith: hide before you herald, receive before you release, and obey before you see the outcome. Along the way, we challenge the myth of a single source by exploring how God's provision shifts forms without losing force—and why clinging to yesterday's method can cause you to miss today's supply.Our guest walks us through the rhythms of process, refining, and promotion with vivid insights: ravens as unlikely couriers, seasonal streams that test trust, and a widow's last meal that becomes a pipeline of provision. We dig into how consecration positions us for wonders, why faith grows strongest when sight is weakest, and how alignment turns believers from storage units into delivery systems. Anchored by Isaiah 45's “treasures in darkness” and the covering promises of Psalm 91, we frame hidden seasons as sacred classrooms where courage, clarity, and calling take shape.You'll hear a powerful personal testimony about carrying a prophetic word through medical valleys, the difference between striving and surrender, and the practical steps that keep you steady when outcomes lag behind obedience. If you're navigating scarcity, uncertainty, or delay, this conversation offers language and tools to keep moving—celebrate the moment you're in, learn what it's teaching, and watch how the next assignment emerges right where the old source ran dry.

What if the difference between stagnation and a move of God is the courage to collaborate without compromise? We open with a powerful testimony from Iowa—prayer around a 4,000-seat stadium, visions of citywide revival, and a fresh call to seize this kingdom moment.
