All my life I felt awkward and out of place, not because of my religion, but because of my spiritual gifts. It was hard to combine the idea of what first seemed like two separate worlds. So my whole life I have tried. I have learnt more about my gifts, and stayed faithful to my faith. But then I heard people left the church because it seems impossible to combine the two. So I am here, to try and mend the rift. To show that it is possible to be both LDS and to have, and use, our spiritual gifts. I am not alone on this journey, but my sister, who just is waking up to her spiritual gifts is by my side and she will also share her story.Jesus Christ, our older brother, was a healer. He asked us to love one another. So let´s follow in his footsteps. Please join me on this journey, let´s make a community of strong spiritual LDS, or whatever religion you belong to, and all work together to make this world a better place.If you like what I do, then you can find me here:https://linktr.ee/ldsandmediumIf you have words of support or stories that you anonymously want me to share please write me at ldsandmedium@gmail.com.

This past Sunday we continued our Spirit series as Pastor Rheva encouraged us through her talk on the gift of prophecy. This is a gift that we believe is still alive and active today. All believers are designed to hear God's voice and have access to this gift as part of their relationship with Him. The talk seeks to demystify prophecy, explaining that it is not about titles or dramatic proclamations but about communicating God's message in a way that builds up and encourages others. Prophecy is not restricted to certain personalities or statuses—it is for all believers. In this talk, there is a call for believers to embrace and develop their prophetic gifts, using them to serve both the church and the broader community in humility, wisdom, and love. When we receive prophetic words, the bible tells us that we are to test them (1 Thessalonians 5:20-21) and the questions below were provided to help us test and process what has been given to us.Does it agree with Scripture?Is it consistent with the character and nature of God?Does this resonate with me?How do family, friends, and leaders who love me feel about the word?Do I trust the source? Does this person have any reason to control or manipulate me? Would this person receive any personal benefit from my following this prophetic word?Does it glorify God and draw me close to Jesus?Does my trusted community believe this word or parts of it reflect what God is speaking to me right now?For more info, you can go to our website, check us out on Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube.

 In this episode, Dr. Self discusses the baptism of the Holy Spirit and its importance for all believers. While this topic can be controversial, Scripture is clear about it. Don't let anyone tell you that it is automatic at the moment of your salvation; it is something more God has for you. In this episode of Self Talk, you will see what the Bible says about this and learn how crucial it is to receive this power in your life.  Acts 8:14 -16 Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them, who, when they had come down, prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit. For as yet He had fallen upon none of them. They had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.   Help Dr. Self continue this show - partner at www.icmcollege.org/donate  Answer your call by enrolling with the International College of Ministry at www.icmcollege.org/enroll  Purchase Dr. Ray's latest book, "The Call."

“For God did not send His son to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved”  John 3:17

Many times, people approach me and say, "Dr. Ray, I have a prophetic word for you," and then they share what they believe is God's message.

What if the prophetic word you receive truly is from God? In this show, Dr. Ray will address these questions and discuss how to navigate these experiences.  1 Corr 14:29 Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others pass judgment.  Help Dr. Self continue this show - partner at www.icmcollege.org/donate  Answer your call by enrolling with the International College of Ministry at www.icmcollege.org/enroll  Purchase Dr. Ray's latest book, "The Call."

"We may observe, (1) When God expresseS great indignation in Himself against sin, it is to teach men the greatness of sin in themselves. (2) God gives the same stability unto His threatenings as unto His promises. Men are apt to think the promises are firm and stable, but as for the threatenings, they suppose some way or other they may be evaded. (3) When men have provoked God by their impenitency to decree their punishment irrevocably, they will find severity in the execution. (4) It is the presence of God alone that renders any place or condition good or desirable, 'they' shall not enter into My rest" (Dr. John Owen).

That means it is time for many of us to rest.  Mat 11:28 - 29 "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.

694 His Sheep Hear His Voice, A Guided Christian Meditation on John 10:1-4 with the Recenter With Christ app  The purpose of this podcast is to help you find more peace in your life and connect with the true source of peace, Jesus Christ.  Outline: Relaxation, Reading, Meditation, Prayer, Contemplation and Visualization. Get into a place where you can sit comfortably and uninterrupted for about 20 minutes.You should hopefully not be driving or anything tensing or unrelaxing.  If you feel comfortable to do so, I invite you to close your eyes.   Guided Relaxation / Guided Meditation:   Breathe and direct your thoughts to connecting with God. Let your stomach be a balloon inflate,  deflate. Scripture for Meditation John 10 NASB 10 “Truly, truly I say to you, the one who does not enter by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbs up some other way, he is a thief and a robber. 2 But the one who enters by the door is a shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep listen to his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 When he puts all his own sheep outside, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice. NIV “Very truly I tell you Pharisees, anyone who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber. 2 The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. Meditation on Scripture: You, spending these moments with the Lord, are responding to his voice. Of the many ways we respond to his voice through academic study, prayer, meditation, service, and a thousand other ways, we live out this scripture. We respond to His voice as His sheep. Jesus shows us the way by which we can walk. He shows us how to follow His word. His spirit lifts, inspires, and transforms us. Jesus declares himself to be our shepard and we respond to His voice, as his sheep.  He goes ahead of us and we follow. We go in and out. He knows each one of us and what we need. He knows His sheep. He knows you. He calls you by name. Jesus has taken the right to break whatever boundaries prevent you from progress toward Him and His love. Let whatever hardship you have in life, whatevers stressors have their perfect work in your to draw you to the arms of the loving shepherd. There is no place we can run where he cannot find us and will not pursue, eventually to catch us in loving arms and hold us in a warm embrace. Regardless of what lost wilderness you roam in, know the love of your shepard never fail.s In moments like this when we focus on His love and presence we can hear that voice in our lives, and we can see that lived out in us, His sheep. Additionally in these moments we can discern God's will for us in other moments of our lives.  What is God calling us to? How does God's unwavering love lift you to greater heights? What is God calling you to? How will this moment of peace and love with God pour out into the rest of your life? Ponder that for a moment now.   Meditation of Prayer: Pray as directed by the Spirit. Dedicate these moments to the patient waiting, when you feel ready ask God for understanding you desire from Him. Meditation of God and His Glory / Hesychasm: I invite you to sit in silence feeling patient for your own faults and trials.

Sermon by Jon Ludovina on October 13, 2024.This week, we look at Hebrews 3:7-19 which includes a repeated call from an Old Testament story: "Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion." What is the nature of that rebellion, and how is hardening your heart spiritually dangerous? How can we guard our hearts from the deceitfulness of sin?This series is part of our Year of Biblical Literacy initiative.

In the hustle of entrepreneurship and the noise of social media, email marketing, content creation, business systems, and time management it's normal to feel like you cannot hear God's voice. Are you praying for guidance and direction but feel like He is silent? It may seem that way but He is always speaking, and there is a way to get direction for that next one step you need to take in your business and life. I had an ah-hah moment with Him this week and it became so clear to me, in the midst of my constant pursuit of clarity.... It's not easy being a Christian entrepreneur even when we know God is in our corner so I hope this episode is some Biblical Encouragement for when you need it most!  I pray this episode blessed you! Please email me your prayer requests anytime, I would love to be praying for you!  XOXO, Beth    LET'S CONNECT!  INSTAGRAM - @revivalbco FACEBOOK - Free, private, community, Seeking Over Striving  EMAIL - bnygard@revivalbsls.com  MENTORSHIP - Book your 1:1 Faith-led Entrepreneur Coaching call HERE
