Immeasurably More// Faith Under Fire// March 30, 2025Ephesians 6:10-20 (NIV)“Finally, BE STRONG in the Lord and in the strength of HIS MIGHT. Put on the full armor of God so we can take our stand against the devil's schemes because our battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers and against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 (NIV)“For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does…On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”Isaiah 59:14-17 (NIV)“So, justice is driven back, and righteousness stands at a distance; truth has stumbled in the streets, honesty cannot enter. Truth is nowhere to be found, and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey. The Lord looked and was displeased that there was no justice. He saw that there was no one, he was appalled that there was no one to intervene, so his own arm achieved salvation for him, and his own righteousness sustained him. He put on righteousness as his breastplate, and the helmet of salvation on his head; he put on the garments of vengeance and wrapped himself in zeal as in a cloak.” The armor is about confidence in God's ability to hold all those elements of the armor true and together.  The Helmet is His Salvation Isaiah 12:2 (NIV)“Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation.” Ephesians 2:8 (NIV)“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.”   The Breastplate is His RighteousnessPhilippians 3:8-9 (NIV)“What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith.” The Belt is His TruthPsalm 33:4 (KJV)“For the word of the LORD is right, and all His work is done in truth.” Ephesians 4:14 (NIV)“Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.” The Sword of the Spirit is His WordHebrews 4:12 (NIV) “For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.”  The Shoes are His Gospel of PeaceIsaiah 52:7 (NIV)“How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!” The gospel is meant to be peace with God and peace with one another. The Shield of FaithFaith is deliberate confidence in the character of God.Faith is not about my ability to believe but it's about His ability to BE.His unfailing character and person.  Faith is not about my ability to believe but it's about His ability to BE.  John 14:26,27 (NIV)“But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you…Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”

142 - The Power of His Might, Joshua 23:9-10 by Pastor David Goodson

In 1 John 2:15-17 John says don't love the world system of evil and wants that are always wanting more. The lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life are the three ways the devil always tempts us. It was done in the garden with Eve, and many other places in the Old Testament. It was attempted with Jesus when He fasted 40 days and nights. He never fell prey to the devil's temptations but fought them with scripture. He set the example of how we can win the battle with temptation too. We need to memorize scripture and remember who God is and that what He has is way better than the devil's cheap imitation of satisfaction. The devil's goodies always leave us wanting more. Let us remember the words of Ephesians 6:10 and following to verse 21. We are to be strong in the Lord and the power of His Might. Stand, withstand, having done all to stand, stand therefore. We don't need to win the battle, Jesus already has, so stand strong in His power. Amen!                     1 John 2:15-17 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world--the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life--is not of the Father but is of the world. 17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever. Mark 8:36 "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?              John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Have you trusted Him as your Savior? He can Save you if You ask Him based on His death, burial, and resurrection for your sins. Believe in Him for forgiveness of your sins today.               “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”  -John 8:32             Our mission is to spread the gospel and to go to the least of these with the life-changing message of Jesus Christ; We reach out to those the World has forgotten.              hisloveministries.podbean.com #HLMSocial hisloveministries.net https://www.instagram.com/hisloveministries1/?hl=en His Love Ministries on Itunes Don't go for all the gusto you can get, go for all the God (Jesus Christ) you can get.

One of the most important attributes of the societies who are ignorant of the morality of the Qur'an is their faith in Allah despite their failure to appreciate His Might and grandeur. The Prophet Muhammad (saas) told his people—those who said that Allah created them in reply to the question, “Who created you?" yet failed to appreciate Him—that Allah had everything underHis control and that ascribing partners to Him would bring nobenefit to them: If you ask them, “Who created the heavens and theEarth?” They will say, “Allah.” Say: “So what do you think? If Allah desired harm for me, could those you call upon besides Allah relieve my affliction? Or if He desired mercy for me, could they withhold His mercy? "Say: “Allah is enough for me. In Him let the faithful put their trust.” (Surat az-Zumar, 38) Say: “Who is going to shield you from Allah if it is His will to scourge you? And who can prevent Him from showing you mercy?” They will find no one to protect or help them besides Allah. (Surat al-Ahzab, 17)

By Mary Lindow THE WORDS “HELP ME!” ARE THE DEEPEST CRY OF EVERY HUMAN HEART. It perfectly describes the anguish of the soul, that agony in need to hear God lovingly respond with redemptive help. He answers as the very person and the very place of help through His son Jesus Christ, providing help for the helpless, a Father to the fatherless, and Hope for the hopeless. One of the most amazing things about of God and so very precious to the humble needs of we humans is that he is actually the very BEING, the very exact place, where we find help. Nothing and no one else is so truly and so really, THE place and person from who help comes like he is. Our need for help is more accurately termed “rescue” when it's expressed in the fullest sense, and only Jesus himself can provide it! He rescues us from our daily “sneaky and self gratifying” sins and he rescues us from our falling and our faults, and he rescues us from our helplessness and hopelessness!   JESUS ALONE IS THE PLACE OF RESCUE. He is the ultimate single person of help and we can find no one else to fill that break in the bridge of life! There is no one else, and when we come to this place we realize we need no other fixer! Now, this doesn't mean that we don't need one another as brothers and sisters in Christ and as friends. But unless those brothers and sisters and friends are walking in the light and brokenness of the Lord, they really aren't much help anyway.   SOME PEOPLE RESIST AND PROLONG THE INEVITABLE, and will resist you when you are going through times of struggle and difficulty. There is a certain “ugly distain” in an individual who does not want to admit that they are infallible. These individuals still feel that they can control the environment around them through their education, their income, and their attitude.   OFTEN, THESE KINDS OF INDIVIDUALS CAN CREATE PAINFUL DARKNESS in the lives of others, because instead of extending mercy and compassion, they have a lot of advice that comes out of simple textbook reading, rather than out of any real experience in dealing with their own darkness and personal places of being stuck in dysfunction.   SAD AS IT MAY SEEM, MANY PEOPLE APPLAUD THEIR OWN DYSFUNCTIONS, claiming that they are actually “just fine”, and they will pretty much verbally “whack anyone else in the head” that dares to challenge them!   THESE ARE THE FRIENDS THAT JOB HAD, AND THESE ARE NOT REAL FRIENDS. They will never understand the life of the disciple of dear Jesus, being refined in the fire, in order to come out of that fire more radiant, and expressing the hope and light of Christ without a lot of pompous preaching or fanfare.   The way to the fulfillment of all of life‘s highest peaks and deepest longings is in knowing the depths of the love of the Rescuer, Lord Jesus Christ himself. It's not a quick process by the way!     HOW MUCH LIGHT DOES A PERSON NEED WHEN PRESSED UNDER by evil pressures, nightmarish reoccurring losses and disjointed, painful relationships?  Only a very tiny pinhole of light, if it is the Light that comes from God.   ONE PINHOLE OF GODLY LIGHT IS STRONGER THAN A UNIVERSE OF DARKNESS.    It is enough for a surrendered and determined believer to cling to and depend on when all else has failed.   Psalm 89:15 says, “Blessed are those who have learned to give praise and honor to you, Who walk in the light of your presence, O LORD.”   When we focus upon the Light of God's enduring and endearing Presence, all darkness will eventually be swallowed up into the Light of His Fountain of light. His Light is victorious over the darkness. ALL OF IT.   Psalm 36:9 says, “For with you is the fountain of life; In your light we see light.”   WE ALONE CANNOT BATTLE THE DARKNESS. Our strength is not enough. Accept that and know that God's light comes to dispel darkness. His strength and Righteous arm smashes dark deeds, enemies, and deceivers and He will bring out into the light the things men think that they have hidden or have justified away.   Psalm 90:8 says, You spread out our sins before you—our secret sins—and see them all.   WHAT IS HAPPENING WHEN YOU FEEL BLIND AND LOST IN A DARKENED SEASON? Just as a caterpillar in a cocoon must experience a time of confinement and seeming darkness, there comes a time when it is lead out of darkness into light to stretch its newly found wings of liberty and gracefulness to soar and express Resurrection power, to those who gaze upon its beauty. Few will fully understand the pain of this difficult process, unless they too pass through it.   Isaiah 42:16 says, Along unfamiliar paths I will guide them;  I will turn the darkness into light before them And make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them.     SO! WHO ARE THE GENUINE WORKERS OF GOOD AND HONEST DEEDS? Now, there are those who do acts of benevolence and kindness whose aim is to only gain personal gratification and a sense of power when they “stoop to help others” in times of distress and sorrow.   Often times, folks with this fleshly and condescending behavior, (although claiming to have some spiritual godliness) will test those whom they share with. This can be either in monetary gifts, acts of service, spiritual gifts, or in counsel.   In basic terms, it's set up. You better perform up to the standard they expect! Because it's their reputation on the line if you fail! (Imagine if Jesus held us all accountable to the acts of His goodness towards us!) This is NOT a Worker of A Righteous or Good and Honest deed. This is a form of selfish ambition, entrapment and control.   A RIGHTEOUS DEED OR ACT OF GOODNESS IS DONE WITH THE INTENT OF IMITATING THE NATURE OF GOD'S MERCY AND KINDESS. It does not expect performance or groveling in return. It never holds others over the fire with a critical eye, expecting perfection.   Often we have failed and disrespected His grace. Yet He continues in love, and Redemptive acts towards us. Because He has, no insecurities whatsoever.   TO BE RIGHTEOUS OR “DOING WHAT IS RIGHT IN THE EYES OF GOD” MEANS TO BE: VIRTUOUS  - MORAL - GOOD  - JUSTICE LOVING HONORABLE  - HONEST - RESPECTABLE - DECENT   I HAVE PERSONALLY EXPERIENCED IN THE PAST AND EVEN AS RECENTLY AS THE PAST FEW WEEKS, OVERWHELMING ACTS OF KINDNESS AND PATIENCE FROM THOSE WHOM I KNOW, GOD MUST CALL HIS WORKERS OF HONORABLE AND KIND DEEDS.   THE COMMON THREAD I SEE AMONG ALL OF THESE BELOVED GIVERS OF GRACE and care is that they have all experienced a time of great loss, depravation, near death, or sorrow.  A Ray of Hope. A beam of light that draws you out of the darkness that attempts to tow you under in despair or fear.   I JUST LOST ONE OF MY SEVEN BROTHERS. Sudden liver failure and organ failure. He was 63. He was brilliant, funny and kind.   I LOST ANOTHER FRIEND A WEEK LATER.  One moment a successful surgery, moments later a clot was formed and a stroke took place. Gone in a moment. She was 62. A giver, an artist and lover of God.   I HAD A VERY DEAR FAMILY MEMBER THAT I LOVE, TURN ON ME SUDDENLY and share privileged information with others who are not considered safe or wise people. Trust was shattered!   ALL THREE OF THESE EVENTS WERE AND ARE PAINFUL! All three events were and are out of my ability to control! And friends, grief and loss and betrayal are very, very real, and they are very painful events in our lives.   YET, GOD SEND US OTHERS INTO OUR SPIRAL OF PAIN AND LOSS, who "get it", because not only have they been through similar events, they learned that hard won growth can come out of pain and loss, or, you can choose to grow isolated, insulated, and bitter.   Jeremiah 9:24 says, But let him who boasts- boast about this:  That he understands and knows Me, That I am the LORD, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight," declares the LORD.   WHEN TORMENT AND LYING SPIRITS DECEIVE OTHERS  and they foolishly accuse you; know that there are others whom God will place in your life that will bring sober and Godly counsel, as well as loving kindness and help.   Proverbs 27:9 says, Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart, and the pleasantness of one's friend, springs from his earnest counsel.   DO NOT STOP IN YOUR KINDNESS AND IN YOUR CARE FOR OTHERS! The testing in this hour of the hearts of men and women will only grow more intense as the Lord examines the intentions of the hearts of those who call Him Lord.   The hoarding of comfort and help can't ever be allowed   in the life of a follower of Jesus.   Your comfort, is not number one!   SOMETIMES, WE PUT ASIDE OUR OWN NEEDS AND COMFORTS AND SECURITY, AND FORGE THROUGH THE DARKNESS TO BRING HOPE AND RELIEF TO THOSE BEING BATTERED BY A RELENTLESS STORM! We speak peace to them IN the storm. Jesus did it! So He gives us the courage and strength to do the same!   IF YOU HAVE PERSONALLY CAUSED TRAGEDY, DESTRUCTION OR SHAME to fall upon any of your Family in Christ, and have yet to openly apologize and make the situation you were a part of “right”, know that the risk of a deep darkness of the soul is reserved for those who choose to walk in self-deception and who cloak their denial in passivity.   QUICKLY WHILE YOU STILL HAVE TIME, HUMBLE YOURSELF in the sight and the light of the Lord and HE will lift you out of your darkness. Be humble enough to apologize specifically, for the harm you have done to someone. Own it, apologize, and ask for their forgiveness.   Then, Light will come again into your soul, and so will a flooding peace that cleanses you from shame and the claw of bitterness that demons use to torment and immobilize you with.   Philippians 2:3 says, Don't be selfish; don't live to make a good impression on others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourself.   DEAR BELIEVER! THERE IS THE OPEN OFFER OF AN ABUNDANCE OF JOY FOR WORKERS OF RIGHTEOUS AND HUMBLE, HONORABLE DEEDS!   Psalm 45:7 says, You love righteousness and hate wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy.   Psalm 33:1 says, Sing joyfully to the LORD, you righteous it is fitting for the upright to praise him.   NOW, I'M GOING TO SHARE A PROPHETIC WORD FROM THE LORD THAT DOES ADDRESS SOME OF THIS AND IT'S IN AN ACTIVE AND VOCAL WAY THAT THE LORD WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK TO US, TO PUT A TYPE OF SEAL ON THIS MESSAGE.   “HOLD ON! HOLD FAST! REACH OUT!”  - A PROPHETIC WORD -   "I the Redeemer of those who cry out to Me day and night, compel you to hold on to My hand of Faithfulness and Light. Keep your eyes on the light I provide for you in the darkness.  Hold fast to it and I will stir the hearts of the Righteous and faithful in me, to reach out a hand of compassion and they will obey Me with acts of blessing, restoration, and supply. They will do this willingly, for they have tasted of sorrow and know the secret of My abundant Joy! They have gone out weeping themselves, sowing seeds when they didn't understand, all now growing up in compassion, only to produce a harvest, abundant in Joy. Psalm 126:6 says, Those who weep as they walk and plant with sighs Will return singing with joy, when they bring home the harvest.   I the Lord have tasted sorrow, loss, torment, and death. Yet in one Redemptive act, mankind was brought the opportunity for the fullness of Joy and the open door from darkness into light, when they too, choose to call upon My salvation, cleansing, and light. Quickly. Cleanse your hearts of any act of unkindness, false humility, and the use of a heavy hand over your brothers or sisters, or your children. The pinhole of light... ...My Light, Is drawing you into a New Day.   For Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for the gracious and compassionate and for those in right standing with God. Psalm 112:4     Dear Believer! I encourage you to chew on this message. Let us all bow before the Lord. Get low and sit at the feet of Jesus. Ask Him to wash you clean of fear and weariness and feeling displaced.   This is a different type of warfare that we are experiencing right now! It's not one that a lot of us have experienced on this level of pressure. Ask the Lord to show you that single pinhole of light. From that light, God shows us He is there with us.   Be strong in the Lord And in the POWER of His Might.   Duplication and sharing of this message is welcomed Provided that complete article, podcast link and website information for Mary Lindow is included.

Excerpts of today's spirited Daily Star Devotion audio podcast dubbed - DIVINE MILEAGE is by Pastor Mike S. Banda of Glorious Trinity Synagogues (G.T.S) in Accra, Ghana. Most people are not able to have their daily, weekly, monthly or yearly resolutions, plans, dreams, agendas fulfilled or accomplished because they usually go about them only in their own mights, experiences, connections, personal intelligence or counsels & advices from others. Additionally, some don't even care about God, His Power, His Word, His Spirit, His Might, His Help, available grace & resources and others don't know nor involve Him entirely. Hence many failures, short life spans , delays, stagnancy, unfruitful days, weeks, months and years because God, His Power and resources are absence, not sought after and unused. They usual forget that both the wise and foolish both built houses respectively, but one of the building was on the rock & could restand all odds & oppositions, whereas the other was on the sands & therefore vulnerable, unprotected, prune to short life span, destruction etc. God is before all eternity and further the creator and controller of the seasons, days, weeks, months and years. Therefore without God, nobody can do anything, but with God all things are possible for us in Him. Seek and know God through Christ and let Him always be part of your day, week, month and year for continuous success, longevity, accomplishments, grace, power, protection, joy, peace, progress & forwardness.

Counsel of Jehovah arrives on target for Pt107 in Isaiah's Prophetic Book on tonight's battlelines. The Sovereignty of the Lord, His Might, Counsel, and Spirit moves among the nations at will. There is not one nation who can challenge him. All who do, if those who do not; all shall be subject to the justice of the Lord. As Isaiah continues his prophecy, not only of Babylon and the coming judgment; included are the events that come after the Judgment. Judgment is for one thing. While the nations of men may see God has harsh and not one full of Grace, love, and redemption; the truth is his main tool.   Go https://linktr.ee/warnradio more info.   Counsel of Jehovah is true for our great #God cannot lie, neither does he excuse #sin. With God, the truth of #judgment for #Judah is also followed by his #redemption of and bringing them back into right standing with Him. The #nationsofmen have a hard time understanding this. Even in #America where our #Politicians in #Congress defy the #LivingGod. Some even suggesting the #Almighty has no place within the #chambersofCongress. The #Communist party challenges God daily, while #NorthKorea has tried to Kill God and remove him. All of this is #vanity. It cannot be done; God moves where he will and #redeems those wherever they are found. Even among those nations that hate the #LordGod or don't believe in Him.

Scripture For Today:Acts 12:5“So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him.”Liar, Hypocrite or Believer pt 3We've been studying the topic of whether you are a “Liar, Hypocrite or a Believer.” Yesterday, I know I stepped all over your spiritual toes. I know it, you know and JESUS knows it too. Amen!  But if you got your toes sticking out from under the table, they WILL get stepped on when the Word of God comes a knocking. Amen! Anyway, I said yesterday that we would take it up where we left off. We learned in Ephesians 6:10 to be Strong in the Lord and in the POWER of HIS MIGHT!  We learned we are to “put on the whole armor of God.” We learned in Romans 1:16 that “the Gospel IS the Power of God.”  We learned in Ephesians 2:!-2 that Satan inhabits the atmosphere of this earth and is called the “Prince of the power of the air.” That's his domain. Now, let's go back to Matthew 18:18-20 (which we studied intensely before, so I'm not going to go into too much detail here, you go back and look it up). We learn about BINDING and LOOSING.  To bind on earth…Jesus has already bound the devil…and has given us the right / responsibility to use His Power ON EARTH….now, here is a tough question for you…think before you answer it…your life depends on it….where do we live?  ON EARTH!!!  Then this means Jesus has given to us his power to use HERE – not after you get to Heaven!!! Glory to God!!! “But we did that brother Bob…and it didn't work.”   YOU LIAR!  “What…it didn't work, brother Bob!”  You, my friend – are a liar!  “But, brother Bob, we prayed and it didn't work….  OK, look…does the Bible say it works!  YES…that is because JESUS said it works!  Now…either you are a liar…or the Bible says Jesus lied…and I PICK YOU!  You will never get me to say Jesus is a liar…got that!? Ok, now that we established that as a fact…we  have to figure out WHY you did not receive the answer to your prayer you were praying for…but we have to start with the premise that the WORD WORKS…the devil just stopped your prayer and your blessing…so, let's deal with the devil…amen! Let's go over now, this scripture that talks about the Prince of the Power of the air…the spirit that works and is at work, in the children of disobedience….that is the air…the atmosphere that surrounds this planet…amen! There are three Heavens in the Bible….you have the Heaven where God's Throne is located.  You have the heaven that is what we call “outer space” where the planets and solar system and universe is located…and you have the third heaven which is the atmosphere that surrounds this planet…the air that we breath…that is where the devil is limited to his operations…he is not omnipresent and he does not have the right to travel to the Heaven where God is located…he is bound to this earth…ok? Tomorrow, we will look at an example that demonstrates this, straight from the Word of God. Amen! Let's Pray!

Scripture For Today: Luke 18:10“Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.”Liar, Hypocrite or Believer pt 2Yesterday, we started talking about being a “Liar, a Hypocrite or a Believer.”  Some people may have taken offense at that – that's ok. My mantra is you throw a stone into a pack of coyotes and the one that yelps is the one that got hit. If you're offended by this preaching series on this topic, you should stop and ask yourself “WHY” you're offended. Amen! Ok, let's turn over to Ephesians chapter 6 and verse 10 where we can read, “Be strong in the Lord and the POWER of HIS MIGHT!”  Amen!  Whose power? The Lord. Whose might? The Lord's. Amen!  It is not YOUR power or YOUR might at all.  That means it does not matter if you are an 85 year old or a 5 year old. The same power and the same might is available to you through Christ Jesus. Period! Amen!  The only difference is the knowledge of the Word. At least that SHOULD be the only difference. Often, Christians will start to mix their “feelings” with it as well. Which ALWAYS waters down the power and the might aspect. Amen! Now, in the few minutes we have left, I'm just going to give you some quick scripture references. I'm not going to take the time to go there and look up the scriptures and reading for you. YOU go to the scriptures and look them up. If you have to stop this recording, do so. Or if you want to write them down, this is your warning to get a pen and paper ready. But DO IT. Amen! We could spend a lot of time looking at this, but that is outside the scope of these short teachings on prayer. But you need to get this…Ephesians 6 tells us to “put on the WHOLE armor of God.”  If you have to, to make it sink into your thick head, go through the actual motions of putting on armor. Amen!  Put on your shoes…put on your breast plate…put on your helmet…etc… if that is what it takes for you to understand what it means to put on the WHOLE armor of God! Then turn over to Romans 1:16….The Gospel is the Power of God…so we are equipped with His Power….praying always!!!  Ephesians 2:1-2 talks about the Prince of the Power of the air…go back now to Ephesians 6:12….”this world” is the same as on earth… Matthew 18:18-20 Bind on earth…Jesus has already bound the devil…and has given us the right / responsibility to use His Power ON EARTH….now, here is a tough question for you…think before you answer it…your life depends on it….where do we live?  ON EARTH!!!  Then this means Jesus has given to us his power to use HERE – not after you get to Heaven!!! Glory to God!!! “But we did that brother Bob…and it didn't work.”   YOU LIAR!  “What…it didn't work, brother Bob!”  You, my friend – are a liar!  “But, brother Bob, we prayed and it didn't work….  OK, look…does the Bible say it works!  YES…that is because JESUS said it works!  Now…either you are a liar…or the Bible says Jesus lied…and I PICK YOU!  You will never get me to say Jesus is a liar…got that!? Ok.  Now that we established that fact, I have to leave it right there for today!  Praise God! I know I'll get some comments from that one. Save your time, bubba, I'm not EVER going to change my mind. The Bible is the TRUTH and nothing BUT THE TRUTH. If you have anything else to say about it – go to the Lord and tell Him to His face His Word didn't work and that HE is a liar!   I would not recommend it. But if that's what you want to say and believe, have at it.   We are going to pick it up again tomorrow right here.  I want to pray with you right now that you will begin to link these scripture verses together and SEE just what Power and Authority really belongs to you! Amen! Don't be a liar. Don't be a hypocrite. Be a BELIEVER! Amen! Let's Pray!

Scripture For Today:  2 Kings 6:17“And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant's eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.”Prayer That Changes Things pt 4When I was first born again….I could ask my pastor to pray for me or other people of faith…and receive my healing or whatever it was I was needing…but there came a time when those prayers did not work anymore…which signaled it was time for me to grow up spiritually and begin praying for myself.  Our families are the same way…you cannot expect momma to pray for you and you have been saved 20 years…you cannot continue to pray for you kids and they have been grown and on their own for 20 years…you CAN and SHOULD pray for them….I'm not saying don't do that…but what I am saying is there comes a time when they will have to stand on their own two feet, spiritually speaking!  Amen!  Just like in the natural…there comes a time when a baby will begin to walk on its own….you want it to happen…if a 15 year old is still trying to crawl around the house and refusing to walk…you would say something is wrong…amen!   Now, when baby first starts to take its first steps…it will fall down and you should be right there to catch it and make sure it is not hurt…it will fall down…it will bump into things…it will wobble all over the place…but after just a few days…it realizes how to get things to operate together – and then it is off to the races! Amen! It is the same way spiritually…when you first find yourself in the situation where the prayers of others are not working like they used to…that is your key that the Lord is telling you it is time for YOU to take authority over this situation and learn to fend for yourself a little bit…you will fall, bump into things…get bruised a little bit here and there…but when you come out on top…and you will with Jesus on your side…there will quickly come a “learning” that NOW – the devil cannot operate in your life in that area anymore!!!  Then it is off to the races as far as you learning how to operate in your faith is concerned!  Amen!  You will become a Spiritual Track Star!  Amen!  SO – having done all to stand (in God's armor and His Power, His Might and His Authority) – STAND! “How long do I have to stand, brother Bob?”  FOREVER!  “Whaaaat?  Forever?”  YES – the Word of God is forever, isn't it?  When you finally make the decision that no matter what – you are not giving up and you are not giving in…you are going to stand until you get your breakthrough or not get it…but you will not back down…when your faith reaches that point of maturity…you will find you do not have to stand very long…amen! But if you are just going to “try” to stand…or you are going to “try” tithing…or you are going to “try” seed time and harvest, sowing and reaping…or you  are going to “try” fasting….it will never work… So, make the decision and just DO IT!  I sound like a Nike commercial…but that is where they got it from…make the decision – and DO IT!  And you will WIN every time.

Scripture For Today:Acts 28:8“His father was sick in bed, suffering from fever and dysentery. Paul went in to see him and, after prayer, placed his hands on him and healed him.”Prayer That Changes Things pt 1All year long, we have been studying about various kinds of prayers. But one thing that should be apparent to you by now, is that “Prayer that Changes THINGS!” Amen! And prayer in the name of Jesus what WILL change things! Through this study – we want to learn to access ALL the things Jesus gained for us at the cross and through His sacrifice…Amen! Let's look at Ephesians 6:10-18: “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.  Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;  Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.  And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:  Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.” In the Power of HIS might…YOU put on the FULL armor of God…it's His armor and He has given to Jesus – who wore it successfully while He was here on the earth….and then Jesus is giving it to YOU to wear!  Amen…!  He gives us His armor and His Power and His Might and His Authority – Amen!  The FULL  armor of God ENABLES us and gives to us HIS Power and Might that comes with His armor… This is what you are learning here…How to pray IN the Power of God and not as so many people do as they rehearse the problem and circumstances… “I'm so broke – I can't pay attention….I'm so sick…I'm so desperate…OH GOD, why don't you help me?”  Actually, that is NOT a prayer at all – it IS rehearsing and giving authority to the problem!   Verse 12…We are NOT wrestling against flesh and blood…man is not your problem…the devil will use man…but the problem is the devil…that is one you need to be praying against…amen!  Ephesians 2:2 talks about the Prince of the Power of the Air…that is the atmosphere…not in Heaven…Heaven is secure…the devil has no access there…but from Heaven down…he has principalities and rulers of the darkness in place…these are the ones we are in battle against and the ones we need to pray against…amen!   When we stand and wear God's armor…we need to wear ALL of it!  He spells out everything we need to do prior to Ephesians six in this life…he talks about what to do if you are an employer…an employee…what to do in your family…so after you do these things he instructs…STAND!   Different kinds of prayer require different things we need to do when praying in order to accomplish specific things and desires we want to come to pass…But in EVERY type of prayer…there are certain laws which must be implemented…We always use the name of Jesus; we always pray in the Power of His Name; we always use His Authority; we always stand in our Faith. Faith makes prayer work!  Prayer DOES NOT make Faith work!  Let me say that again so you can understand it….Faith makes prayer work – prayer does not make Faith work.  You can use your faith with out being in  a state of prayer…but you cannot pray without using your faith..  Prayer that changes THINGS – these kinds of prayers bring...

David and TJ describe the “Sides” terminology/heuristic device used among many Christians engaged in the conversation around sexuality and Christianity in the US. They describe the most common fourfold system - A, B, Y, X – including the key principles that animate the particular school of thought, key organizations and/or figures, and values or postures that seem to be embedded among people in each broad school. This conversation will be of use to listening to many future episodes as we are likely to use this system as a basic reference system when talking about the various schools of thought. _____________ Show Notes: Here is David's shorthand tool for remembering the 4 sides: Side Affirming homosexual practice #affirm Side contextualizing traditional Biblical sexuality #renew Side whY talk about sexual orientation #renounce Side eX-Gay therapy #rebuild _____________ A Summary Chart of ABYX [PNG Link] A thorough breakdown and history of the 4 sides [4 Sides - Life on Side B] _____________ The origination of the Side A and B distinction from the Gay Christian Network (note: the contemporary Side B perspective is more expansive than this) [Bridges-Across: The Sides of the Divide -archive] Mudblood Catholic's Definition and Origination of the Side Y Descriptor [Mudblood Catholic: Gay and Catholic, Part I: Gaystation Two] Bible Gender, and Sexuality by James V Brownson [Book link] Michael Hannon Article “Against Heterosexuality” [Against Heterosexuality by Michael W.

Ephesians 2:18-22  18 For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.19 Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, 20 having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, 21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, 22 in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.   Each personal Saint is a Temple that GOD Inhabits personally..HOWEVER the greater Glory Is that in This Time & Season God is Beginning to Build a QUICKENING (Living…LIFE GIVING) Temple through the ‘Builders'; (Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, & Teachers + Individual Saints)  made up Corporately of Millions of Saints together in UNITY,worshiping Corporately which will then Revolutionize the World..(Habakkuk 2:14 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.) IV.) BUILDING The QUICKENING (Life-Giving) Temple of God Or…The Living, Breathing , Life –Giving(I Cr.15:45-49) Temple of God (ABBA)      Ephesians 2:12-22 12 that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.14 For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, 15 having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace, 16 and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity. 17 And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near. 18 For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.19 Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, 20 having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, 21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, 22 in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit. KINGDOM Life-Fellow Citizens w/ the Saints(vs. 19) FAMILY- members of the Household of God(vs.19) 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles & prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.(KJV) Paul Addresses THE APEX of What Men & Women were CREATED FOR!..The Most Intimate Relationship of ALL….Being Made Into a  Living Breathing TABERNACLE FOR ABBA!! Here we see a word-picture presented to us of a Building (which may seem cold, inanimate & austere) & yet this BUILDING Blossoms into the FIGURE of a  Physical BODY! …What I call the Living, Breathing Temple of ABBA(Or The “QUICKENING Temple of ABBA")  What could present a More intimate , personal Picture & example than that of our human body!? ….This word picture is a reminder of How close we can choose to be to ABBA…experiencing His Power, His Might, His LOVE!!...THROUGH being Constructed by God together with the Household of God into a Holy Habitation in which he would be Pleased to Dwell in!!     IV.) BUILDING The Quickening TEMPLE… 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles & prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.(KJV) Built(vs. 20)Building(Vs. 21)….Builded(Vs.22) epoikodomeō…to build, build upon…BUILD UP…*(REMEMBER EPIKODOMEOJ)*………..FOUNDATION(vs. 20) ACTS 20:32 And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified. 2:7 Rooted & Built up in Him I Cor. 3:9-10  For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, you are God's building. 10 According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it. JUDE 1:20  But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, I PETER 2:5 you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. ZECH 4:6-10a 6 So he answered and said to me: “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,' Says the Lord of hosts. 7 ‘Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain! And he shall bring forth the capstone With shouts of “Grace, grace to it!” ' ” 8 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying: 9 “The hands of Zerubbabel Have laid the foundation of this [a]temple; His hands shall also finish Then you will know That the Lord of hosts has sent Me to you. 10 For who has despised the day of small things? I Cor. 3:11 For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.     IV.) BUILDING The QUICKENING Temple…….  20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles & prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.(KJV) apostles & prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone(vs.20) 21:14 Now the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. 2:7-9 7 But on the contrary, when they saw that the gospel for the uncircumcised had been committed to me, as the gospel for the circumcised was to Peter 8 (for He who worked effectively in Peter for the apostleship to the circumcised also worked effectively in me toward the Gentiles), 9 and when James, [b]Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that had been given to me, they gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised. HEBREWS 3:1-4 Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus, 2 who was faithful to Him who appointed Him, as Moses also was faithful in all His house. 3 For this One has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as He who built the house has more honor than the house. 4 For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is Acts 4:10-11 10 let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands here before you whole. 11 This is the ‘stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.' 12 Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” I PETER 2:4-8 4 Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious, 5 you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture,“Behold, I lay in Zion A chief cornerstone, elect, precious, And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame.”7 Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who [b]are disobedient,“The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone,”8 and“A stone of stumbling And a rock of offense.”They stumble, being disobedient to the word, to which they also were appointed. More on CHIEF CORNERSTONE: Matt. 21:42,Mk. 12:10,Ps.118:22,Isaiah 28:16   IV.)Building The QUICKENING TEMPLE………….. 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles & prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.(KJV) Groweth 6:12-13 12 And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The Branch; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the Lord13 Even he shall build the temple of the Lord; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.

TEMPLE   PSALM 27:4 4 One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in his temple. V.) The Temple Building Supervisors & Workers: Ephesians 4:7-16  7 But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gift. 8 Therefore He says:“When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, And gave gifts to men.”9 (Now this, “He ascended”—what does it mean but that He also [a]first descended into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He who descended is also the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.)11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the [b]edifying of the body of Christ, 13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; 14 that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, 15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— 16 from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love A.)The Building Supervisors are the “Apostles ,prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, & Teachers”…vs. 11..Saints are the workers…vs 12 B.)Bldg. supervisors  Perfect & Complete & EQUIP..the Saints by instructing them C.)Eph. 2 Comparison with Eph. 4:16 ..Building up/Edifying Ep. 2:21,22       (NKJV ) Ep. 2:21 Fitly framed together…..Ep.4:16  Joined & knit together                        Ep. 2:21 Doth increase….Ep. 4:16 Causes Growth                        Ep. 2:22 Ye are *Builded together….Ep. 4:16 For the **EDIFYING of Itself                              *synoikodomeo       **oikodomeo ………………………………………………………………………………………….   (ESV)     Ep. 2:21 fitly framed……Ep. 4:16 joined & held together                  Ep. 2:21 doth increase…..Ep. 4:16 causes growth                  Ep. 2:22 builded together…Ep. 4:16 builds itself up in love  ……………………………………………………………………………………………  (NASB)  Ep.2:21 Bldg being fitted together….Ep. 4:16 Being fitly joined together & united                       Ep. 2:21 Is growing Into……………Ep. 4:16 causes the growth                  Ep. 2:22 are being built together……Ep. 4:16 For the bldg up of itself in love ……………………………………………………………………………………………..

VI.)  The Gifts are TOOLS Needed To Build The TEMPLE         A.) Romans 12 I beseech[a] you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your [b]reasonable service. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. 3 For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. 4 For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, 5 so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another. 6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith; 7 or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; he who teaches, in teaching; 8 he who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.             B.) I Corinthians 12  12 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant: 2 You know that[a] you were Gentiles, carried away to these dumb[b] idols, however you were led. 3 Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus [c]accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit. 4 There are [d]diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works [e]all in all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: 8 for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by [f]the same Spirit, 10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. 11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills. 12 For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is 13 For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and have all been made to drink [g]into one Spirit. 14 For in fact the body is not one member but man.15 If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body,” is it therefore not of the body? 16 And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body,” is it therefore not of the body?body,” is it therefore not of the body?) 17 If the whole body were an eye,     VI.) The Gifts are TOOLS Needed To Build The TEMPLE      I COR. 12: 17 If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were     hearing, where would be the smelling? 18 But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased. 19 And if they were all one member, where would the body be? 20 But now indeed there are many members, yet one body. 21 And the eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you”; nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.” 22 No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary. 23 And those members of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow greater honor; and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty, 24 but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it, 25 that there should be no [h]schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another. 26 And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with 27 Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually. 28 And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues. 29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles? 30 Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? 31 But earnestly desire the [i]best gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.        C.) EPHESIANS 2..Built(vs. 20)Building(Vs. 21)….Builded(Vs.22)    epoikodomeō…to build, build upon…BUILD UP ROMANS 15:1-2 We then who are strong ought to bear with the [a]scruples of the weak, and not to please ourselves. 2 Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, leading to [b] I Cor. 14:3-4 3 But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men. 4 He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church. I Cor. 14:12 12 Even so you, since you are [a]zealous for spiritual gifts, let it be for the [b]edification of the church that you seek to excel. I Cor. 14:26 26 How is it then, brethren? Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for [a] VII.) FRUIT PLANTS IN THE TEMPLE: A.)Psalm 92:12-14   The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. 13 Those who are planted in the house of the Lord Shall flourish in the courts of our God. 14 They shall still bear fruit in old age; They shall be [a]fresh and [b]flourishing, B.) PSALM 1:1-3  Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the [a]ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he [b]meditates day and night. 3 He shall be like a tree Planted by the [c]rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper. C.)JOHN 15:1-17 15 “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He [a]takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. 5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you[b] will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. 8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples. 9 “As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. 10 If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love. 11 “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. 12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends. 14 You are My friends if you do whatever I command you. 15 No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. 16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you. 17 These things I command you, that you love one another.  GAL.5:22-23 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. VII.) CONCLUSION:     A.) Hebrews 9:11-15 11 But Christ came as High Priest of the good things [c]to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation. 12 Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. 13 For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the unclean, [d]sanctifies for the [e]purifying of the flesh, 14 how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without [f]spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? 15 And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. B.)REV. 21:3 Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. 2 Then I, [a]John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. 4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”          Re.21: 9-27)  9 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls filled with the seven last plagues came [f]to me and talked with me, saying, “Come, I will show you the [g]bride, the Lamb's wife.” 10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the [h]great city, the [i]holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, 11 having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal. 12 Also she had a great and high wall with twelve gates, and twelve angels at the gates, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: 13 three gates on the east, three gates on the north, three gates on the south, and three gates on the west. 14 Now the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the [j]names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. 15 And he who talked with me had a gold reed to measure the city, its gates, and its wall. 16 The city is laid out as a square; its length is as great as its breadth. And he measured the city with the reed: twelve thousand [k]furlongs. Its length, breadth, and height are equal. 17 Then he measured its wall: one hundred and forty-four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of an angel. 18 The construction of its wall was of jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear glass. 19 The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all kinds of precious stones: the first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, 20 the fifth sardonyx, the sixth sardius, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst. 21 The twelve gates were twelve pearls: each individual gate was of one pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.

Ustadh Michael Wolfender uses surahs Ar-Ra’d (13 The Thunder) and Ibrahim (14 Abraham) and their explanations to help teach the unending value of learning to seek and understand Allah, as this brings true relaxation and peace. All of the messengers Allah sent delivered the same message that Allah is our Provider, place your trust in Him and that He controls all. Our job is to worship and please Allah. Verses 32 - 34 of Surah Ibrahim describe Allah and His Might with some examples including rain, fruits, ships, rivers, the sun and moon, day and night; including there are countless blessings we cannot complete enumerating. Ustadh Michael emphasizes the power of dua, asking of and remembering Allah as when you please Allah, He gives you more. Surah Ibrahim memorializes how prophet Ibrahim (as) made a dua asking Allah to ensure his descendants were consistent in worship: “My Lord! Make me and those ˹believers˺ of my descendants keep up prayer. Our Lord! Accept my prayers.” (14:40)Ayah 7 of Surah Ibrahim includes the guarantee of how remembering Allah ensures He provides more: “And ˹remember˺ when your Lord proclaimed, ‘If you are grateful, I will certainly give you more. But if you are ungrateful, surely My punishment is severe.’”Allah guarantees the best for His believers, including paradise where angels will visit you. And finally, Surah Ibrahim contains the verse for which Good Tree Academy is named: “Do you not see how Allah coSupport the show (http://www.goodtreeacademy.org/donate?id=pd)

Have you ever read through Ephesians 6:10-18 on the whole armor of God and thought, “That seems like a lot of work to put on” and maybe feels impossible to do every day? Let's break it down a bit because it really is an important part of our life and not one that we’re expected to do on our own. Before we look at the details of the armor, it's important to remember these two things written in verses 10-12: “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the full armor of God that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against rulers, against authorities, against cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.” We are told to be strong in the LORD and in the strength of HIS might. I think sometimes I tend to give myself too much credit in my mind as if because I'm saved, I am somehow in and of myself better able to handle things in this life. However, we can't handle much, if anything, on our own and we aren't just being told to be strong, but to be strong IN THE LORD and in HIS MIGHT. We do that by putting on the full armor OF GOD in order to stand. So really, step one is ridding ourselves of self-reliance and being dependent on what God gives us in order to be strong and stand against the schemes of the devil. We have to remember that this battle isn't physical at all, it's all in the spiritual realm. This may seem a bit unfair to us because it's not like we're angels that can see into the spiritual realm like it's the physical. However, the odds are completely loaded in our favor because greater is He who is in us than he who is the world (1 John 4:4), so we're able to fight successfully with the equipment and equipping God gives us. If we lose focus of this fact though, we can be left spiritually naked in battle and end up fighting the very people whom we're supposed to be showing God's love to. It's a spiritual battle that needs spiritual armor and spiritual weapons. The Whole Armor of God “Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication (v.13-18a). God gives us this armor freely, but we are required to take it up and use it in order to be effective in standing firm. We have the belt of truth that holds up our pants so to speak. When the soldiers back in the day used to go to battle, they would gird up their loins (which let's just be real, the tunics were like dresses). So they had to belt these tunics in order to fight and it would keep them from tripping. Truth keeps us focused so that we are not deceived and tripping, or falling into deception and sin. When we hear something that's not true, we'll be girded and ready with the truth, who is also the way and the life, Jesus. We have the breastplate of righteousness, that covers our major internal organs, namely our heart. Our heart is deceitful in itself and our emotions can often mess with us, reminding us of our past failures that turns our stomach in knots and makes us want to curl into a ball of shame. As new creations in Christ, we don't wear our own righteousness though, we are robed in Christ's righteousness. We can stand tall in His righteousness in our battle position knowing that the gates of hell will not prevail against the church. We have our feet with shoes of readiness given by the gospel of peace. We are ready to march into any battle knowing our shoes will not wear thin, because the gospel is for us the same yesterday as it is today as it will be tomorrow. We have a hope and are ready to give a reason for that hope to everyone we come in contact with. And as we go throughout battles, it's our God of peace who gives us His peace. We have the shield of faith in which we can extinguish ALL the flaming darts of the evil one, that we are told to take up in ALL circumstances. If you've ever seen movies of old Roman soldiers, they used to carry full body shields that they could stop, plant down, and take cover under as enemy archers would send over a sea of arrows at them. We too have a shield, our faith, which is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things unseen, and with which it is impossible to please God without (Hebrews 11:1,6). Our faith is powerful and even with only as much as of a mustard seed, could we move mountains, then how effective it is against the lies the enemy shoots our way (Matthew 17:20). We have the helmet of salvation. Our minds can often lead us into trouble if we over think and try to rationalize everything to death. The enemy is an excellent liar, mixing the perfect amount of truth with lies that it becomes a concoction of possibly an undetected deceit. We can know that we know that our salvation is 100% secure in Christ. No one can snatch us out of the Father's hand and the Holy Spirit is our guarantee Who has sealed us (John 10:28-29; 2 Corinthians 1:22). We have the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. If you're in a battle, would you ever put down your sword? Me either! I'd be gripping that thing so tightly and taking it with me everywhere. The same should hold true for our spiritual sword, which is both an offensive and defensive weapon. We have to realize too, that the devil tries to use the word of God against us sometimes, but it's done in deceit. Satan will twist and add to and take out things from God's word in an attempt to sword fight with us, and when he's that close it's often very personal, just like it was with Jesus in the wilderness (Luke 4:1-13). Being a Berean, actively seeking the truth and testing every spirit, being prudent in attention to using your armor in conjunction together is essential (1 John 4). This sword is sharper than any two-edged, and can not only fight against the enemy, but God uses it to do surgery on our hearts, cutting away sin from us on the battle field (Hebrews 4:12; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Corinthians 3:18). We have prayer and supplication IN THE SPIRIT. Prayer is often times regarded as a last resort option, but it is a powerful weapon that we should use in conjunction with our swords. Prayer for ourselves, prayer for the saints, prayers for others. The really cool thing about prayer too is that you can help fight spiritual battles all over the world. We can pray anywhere at any time. Prayers are like targeted missiles that the enemy can't do anything about. We can be paralyzed or unable to talk and still offer up prayer and supplication in our hearts to God. This section ends with a final word of instruction. “To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints,” (v.18b) We can't dig a hole and stick out heads in it or just wear our armor and chill at home forever, we have to keep alert with all perseverance. Not to mention, we have a promise that the gates of hell will not prevail against the church, but since when do gates move? That means we, the church, can't be stuck in a building all the time, we have to get out and storm those gates, knowing we will be victorious if we get out there and fight. (Matthew 16:18) My dear friend, the harvest is so plentiful, but the laborers are few and God is calling, “Whom shall I send?” Will you respond like Isaiah with, “Here I am, send me!”? I encourage you to pray for the saints, keep alert, persevere by moving beyond the walls of the church building and fulfill your ministry of reconciliation, and always wear the full armor of God that you may be able to stand strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might.

Elijah sees God's power in the face of persecution. In 1 Kings, we learn about King Ahab and how he ruled with more wickedness and evil than any Israelite King before him. Elijah boldly steps out and speaks in faith. This results in God's power being displayed in Mighty ways! Elijah's response to persecution varied greatly. Yet, God still displayed His power and might giving the Israelites another chance to see that He was the God who loves them. You see, God fights for us. He takes the time to prove His Might not because He wants attention and fame. He is a jealous, loving, God who wants relationship with us. He fights for us and shows us His great love so that we may decide to be in relationship with Him. He will never force us. In Elijah's situation, He constantly shows up to prove to His people that He is God. He does the same for us! He is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow! It doesn't matter what we face in life, He will provide everything we need in any situation if we let Him."Thus says the LORD who made the earth, the LORD is His name, 'Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know.'"Jeremiah 33:2-3

I think the process is called human composting. When the soylent green movie came out, people might have thought that the idea of feeding on other humans was such a preposterous one but wait for it. Washington State has now enacted a law enabling farmers to use human corps/remains as soil for planting after putting it through a three months mummifying procedure. God forbid evil. If they can convince people to line up for the shots, I think that people will be shamed into taking anything the elites offer to them. Not Daniel.

God did not give you a spirit of fear, but He has given you a spirit of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control. 2 Timothy ‭1:7‬ For you are not living the life of the flesh, you died in your life is now Hidden with Christ in God (Colossians 3:3). Your Body Is the Temple of the Living God, the Holy Spirit Lives in. Is No Longer You Who Lives but Christ Lives in You. (Galatians 2:20) and Greater Is He Who Is in You, Then He Who Is in the World. (1 John 4:4)Now, you are living the life of the Spirit, as a born-again believer the Holy Spirit of God really dwells within you, He directs and controls you.‭‭(Romans‬ ‭8:9‬). ‭ The Spirit Himself testifies together with our own spirit, assuring us that you are the child of God. (Romans‬ ‭8:16‬)‬Therefore, the best way to build up your faith is to say what God says about you in His Word.This is especially crucial for the times in which we're living. There is so much turmoil, anxiety, and pain. It is good to remember that God still sits on the throne, and God reigns and rules the earth.Furthermore, the Lord is the One who fights for you. So focus on these promises of God which he will make true in your life. Because His Word will not return to Me void, without producing any effect, useless, but it shall accomplish that which I please and purpose, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. Isaiah‬ ‭55:11‬ ‬Therefore, I encourage you to listen to these verses the Holy Spirit has given to encourage you daily. They will become a shield of faith to your heart and mind, the Holy Spirit divinely persuading by testifying with your own spirit making you stronger, bolder, and more courageous in your daily walk sin, knowing that the Lord himself is with which – guiding and directing your steps, Who Never Leaves You nor Forsake You.Forever, O Lord, Your word is settled in heaven stands firm as the heavens. Psalms 89:2; Matthew 24:34, 35; I Peter 1:25 Psalms ‭119:89‬ Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Psalm ‭119:105‬ My help comes from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth. Behold, God is my Helper; The LORD is with those who uphold my life. He will repay my enemies for their evil, in His faithfulness He puts an end to them.Psalms 54:4-5, Hebrews 13:5, Psalm 121:2As a Born-Again Believer you Dwell in the secret place of the Most High and remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty Whose power no foe can withstand. God is for you, who can be against you? Who can be our foe, if God is on your side? Romans 8:31You have the privilege of calling upon the Lord; the Lord will answered you and set you free and in a large place. Psalm ‭118:5‬The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me? [Heb. 13:6.] The Lord is on your side and takes your part, He is among those who help you; therefore you shall see your desire established upon those who hate you. ‭ psalms118:7‬It is better to trust and take refuge in the Lord than to put confidence in man. It is better to trust and take refuge in the Lord than to put confidence in princes. Psalm‬ ‭118:8-9‬ ‬So you take comfort and be encouraged and confidently and boldly say, The Lord is my Helper; I will not be seized with alarm I will not fear or dread or be terrified. What can man do to me? Hebrews ‭13:6‬ The LORD is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and rely, and in Him I confidently trust!‭‭Psalm‬ ‭91:1-2‬ ‬For He Will rescue you from every trap and protect you from deadly disease. He will cover you with his feathers. He will shelter you with His Wings. His faithful promises are your armor and protection. Psalms ‭91:3-4‬ He comes with great power, and rescue me! He depends me with His Might. Psalms ‭54:1‬ HE SAVES ME, O God, by Your name; judge and vindicate me by Your mighty strength and power. Hear my pleading and my prayer, O God; You give ear to the words of my mouth. When strangers and insolent men are rising up against me, and violent men and ruthless ones seek and demand my life; for they do not set God before them. Selah! Psalm ‭54:1-3‬ Behold, God is my Helper; The Lord is with those who uphold my life. He will repay my enemies for their evil.

Be strong in the Lord and in the Power of His Might

Shout with Joy to the LORD, all the earth! Worship and Serve the LORD with gladness. Come into His Presence singing with Joy.Acknowledge that the LORD is God! He is Who made us, and we are His. We are His people, the sheep of His pasture. Enter His gates with thanksgiving; go into His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him and praise His name. For the LORD is good. His unfailing love continues forever, and His faithfulness continues to each generation. (‭‭Psalms‬ ‭100:1-5)‬‬Behold, God, is my salvation! I will trust and not be afraid, for the LORD God is my strength and song; yes, He has given me victory, He has become my salvation. Therefore with joy I will draw water and drink from the wells of my salvation. (Isaiah ‭12:2-3‬)The LORD your God; hears you, He Enlighten your eyes. Trust in His Mercy; Rejoice in His salvation. Sing to the LORD, Because He is Good to you and has dealt bountifully with you.(Psalms 13:3, 5-6)Do not sorrow, for the joy of the LORD is your strength. (‭‭Nehemiah‬ ‭8:10)‬‬We are carefully joined together in Christ Jesus, becoming a holy temple for the LORD. And IN Him you also have become a dwelling IN which God lives by His Spirit. ‭‭(Ephesians‬ ‭2:21-22)‬‬Honor and majesty are found in His Presence; strength and joy are found in His sanctuary. (1 Chronicles ‭16:27‬)Your body is the temple (the very sanctuary) of the Holy Spirit Who lives within you, Whom you have received as a Gift from God. You are not your own.‭‭(1 Corinthians‬ ‭6:19‬ )‬God is telling you through the pen of Nehemiah, to be strengthened by the Joy of the LORD – to be strong in the LORD, be empowered through your union with Him; draw your strength from Him that strength which His boundless might provides- in the power of His Might. (Ephesians ‭6:10‬)Strength and Joy are in His Place, Who is IN you. For you are the Temple of the Living God. As God said: I will dwell IN and among them, I will live IN them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they will be my people.‭‭(1 Chronicles ‭16:27, 2 Corinthians 6:16)Yes, The Spirit of the LORD on Jesus is IN you and among you, He lives IN you and walks among you, ‭and He grants consolation and joy, consoles those who mourn, He gives us beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of expressive praise instead of a spirit of heaviness, a heavy, burdened, and failing spirit–that you may be called oaks of righteousness lofty, strong, and magnificent, distinguished for uprightness, justice, and right standing with God, the planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified. (Isaiah‬ ‭61:3‬)Therefore, I will greatly rejoice in the LORD my God, my soul will exult in my God; for He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, I am like a bridegroom dreased for His Wedding , and as a bride adorned withher jewels. (Isaiah ‭61:10‬). The LORD God wants you to know what you have, so He has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. The Spirit Who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God. (‭‭I Corinthians‬ ‭2:10, 12‬). ‬O COME, let us sing to the LORD; let us make a joyful noise to the Rock of our salvation! Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to Him with songs of praise! For the LORD is a Great God, and a Great King above all gods. (Psalm ‭95:1-3)‬We praise the LORD by saying praiseworthy things about Him. We find this regularly in the Scriptures. Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, you who are upright and in right standing with Him; shout for joy, all you upright in heart! (Psalm ‭32:11‬)Then I shall be joyful in the Lord; I shall rejoice in His deliverance. (Psalm ‭35:9‬)Rejoice in the Lord, you upright and in right standing with God, and give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness.‭‭(Psalm‬ ‭97:12‬)‬I will rejoice in the LORD! I will be joyful in the God of my salvation! (Habakkuk ‭3:18‬)You show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy, at Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore. (Acts 2:25-28, 31; Psalm ‭16:11‬)LORD YOU are our glory and joy.‭‭(I Thessalonians‬ ‭2:20‬)‬Those who sow in tears Shall reap in joy.(‭‭Psalms‬ ‭126:5‬)‬And these things God writes to you that your joy may be full. (I John ‭1:4‬)He says: These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may and delight may be in you, and remain in you, and that your joy may be full measure and complete and overflowing. (John ‭15:11‬)Jesus said these things while I He was still in the world, so that His joy may be made full and complete and perfect in you, that you may experience My delight fulfilled in them, that My enjoyment may be perfected in their own souls, that you may have My gladness within you, and your heart filled with My Joy. (John ‭17:13‬)Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. (1 Thessalonians ‭5:16-18‬)Philippians is one of the most joyful book in the Bible — the apostle Paul uses the Greek words for joy and rejoicing sixteen 16 times in only 104 verses. Always be full of joy in the LORD. I say it again—rejoice! (‭Philippians‬ ‭4:4)‬

Mental sicknesses can affect any of us and leave us paralyzed and hopeless, even afraid and ashamed, isolated and intimidated. From Depression to Disorders, from Bipolar to Schizophrenia – mental diseases are a reality that affects all of us. Many find it difficult to even acknowledge its reality. Others struggle to accept all available resources. Prayer (the Spiritual) – People (the Social/Emotional) – Pause (the Physical) – Pill (the Medical) – Place (the Intensive Intervention (It may take one, a combination or all!). Since Mental Wellness is not automatic, FIGHT with His Might!

Praise the LORD! Great is the LORD and Great is His Power; For the Kingdom of God is not Based on Mere Talk but Power!-Ps 147:3, 1 Cor 4:20Praise to the Lord – is what you offer to acknowledge God's greatness, power, might, the menu, grace, strength, power, salvation, redemption, as well as all his attributes, fruits and gifts. You praise God for everything, and all things great and small.Praise always exalts the very being of God and his attributes. Just as David said so what is and you:The Lord is my Rock, my Fortress, and my Deliverer; my God, my keen and firm Strength in Whom I will trust and take refuge, my Shield, and the Horn of my salvation, my High Tower.I will call upon the Lord, Who is to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies. (Psalm‬ ‭18:2-3‬)You call to the LORD, Who is worthy of All Praise. Who formed you for Himself, to set forth His Praise and that is what you shall do. (Isaiah‬ ‭43:21‬) But How do you Praise?Through Christ Jesus, literally, "successfully" across to the other side on account of Christ, by virtue of you being in Christ Jesus, Christ carries your praises before the Father as thank offering.Therefore, no matter the situation or circumstance we are to continue and constantly and it all Times offer up to God a sacrifice of praise, which is the fruit of our lips thankfully technology and confessing and Glorifying His Name. (Hebrews‬ ‭13:15)‬ ‭

Praise originates from the love of God being shed abroad in your heart. Because God first loved you, you love him and praise him for his unconditional, unfeeling, never ending sacrificial love for you.As a born again believer you having God living in you are loved by God, so you love God with all your heart and with all your soul and all your strength and all that is within. (Deuteronomy 6:5)Love born from your relationship with God through Jesus Christ, is the origination of your praise.God is your Help! Praise Him for what He has Promised! Praise His Word; Confidently Lean and a Rely on God, He is Faithful.-Ps 56:4,119:68When the World is Getting you Down, Rest in the LORD and the Power of His Might. Tell Him what is on your mind, He will Help you.-Heb 13:6Blessed are you Who Takes Time to Rest in God's Presence and Worship Him; Singing His Praises all the day long. Selah!-Ps 84:4 #PraiseGodGod is Continually with me; He Holds my Right Hand, He Guides me by His Spirit. God is the Rock and Strength off my Heart.-Ps 73:23-26It is Good for me to Draw Near to God; for I have Put my Trust in the Lord God, He is my Refuge, I Telling All the Works He Does.-Ps 73:28MAKE A Joyful Noise to the LORD, All His children! Serve the LORD with Gladness! Come into His Presence with singing! He is God!-Ps 100:1-3PRAISE THE Lord! It is Good to Sing Praises to my God, for He is Gracious and Lovely. Praising God Directs my Attention to Him.-Ps 147:1Honor God, Ascribe Glory and Strength to His Holy Name Visible and Invisible, Give Him the Glory Due to His Name. Worship Holy God.-Ps 29:2

Your Praise to God expresses outwardly what God is doing inwardly and through you in your thoughts, and everyday actions. Praise is an act of holy worship unto God. 

The easiest way to begin is to praise God for who He is to you, personally. He is your Lord and Savior and Father, who never leaves you nor for sexual. He is always with you and helping and God and all the affairs of life.Proclaim that God is Good without measure; abundant in mercy and overflowing with grace for you in every situation and circumstance of life.

Jesus has overcome the world.  (Jn. 16:33).He has overcome Satan. (Col. 2:15: I Jn. 3: 8).“And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his word was with power,” (Lk. 4:32).“We are strong in the power of His Might,” (Eph. 1:23).“Whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord. Without me ye can do nothing,” (Phil. 4: 13).Power of His might are words used in the verse for power or strength the imperative verb be empowered or be enabled is used for the word for force, and finally the word strength in the Force of His strengths.
