Do you want to hear God's voice more clearly?Collin Hoke shares how walking in step with the Holy Spirit brings clarity, focus, and transformation. Using Paul's words in Galatians 5, we'll discover that hearing God isn't just about spiritual techniques—it's about aligning our daily rhythm to His beat. When we sync our lives with the Spirit's tempo, God's voice becomes clearer and His fruit flows naturally. But competing “off-beat” rhythms—like selfishness, division, envy, and idolatry—can muddy that clarity.In this sermon, you'll learn:- Why hearing God starts with loving God and others- How to recognize when you're “off-beat” spiritually- The slow drift that pulls you away from God's rhythm- Simple daily practices to keep in step with the Spirit- Why repentance is the “first beat” to hearing God clearlyKey Scriptures:- Galatians 5:13-25 — Walk in step with the Spirit- Ephesians 1:13 — Sealed with the Holy Spirit- Matthew 22:37–39 — Love God, love othersSearch Keywords:walking in the Spirit, Galatians 5 sermon, hearing God's voice, fruit of the Spirit, keeping in step with the Spirit, Christian spiritual growth, how to hear God clearly, obeying God, daily spiritual habits, love God love othersDon't just try to “hear” God—start walking in His rhythm, and you'll begin to recognize His voice every day.Like, Subscribe, and share this message with someone who wants to grow in step with the Spirit.

Ever wonder why you sometimes feel that heavy weight on your heart? Is it God speaking truth through conviction, or something else trying to pull you down with condemnation? In this powerful message, we dive deep into John 16:5–11 to understand the difference between God's loving correction and the enemy's lies.Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit would come to convict the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment — but what does that really mean for us today? Whether you're wrestling with feelings of guilt, shame, or spiritual confusion, this message will help you recognize the voice of God calling you to repentance, healing, and freedom. In this sermon, you'll discover:- What conviction really is and why it's a gift, not a punishment- The difference between conviction and condemnation, and why it matters- How Jesus makes righteousness available to you right now- Why judgment is real — and how knowing this should shape your life- How to respond to God's discipline with hope, not despairKey Scriptures:John 16:5–11 — The Spirit's work of convictionHebrews 12:5–11 — God's loving discipline of His childrenRomans 8:1–2 — No condemnation for those in ChristRomans 7:21–25 — The battle with sin and the victory in Jesus  Search Keywords:conviction vs condemnation, hearing God's voice correction, John 16 sermon, Holy Spirit conviction, Christian discipline, spiritual conviction, no condemnation in Christ, understanding God's judgment, repentance and righteousness, freedom from shame, how to hear God's correctionDon't let condemnation hold you back—learn how to embrace God's conviction and walk in freedom today.Like, Subscribe, and share this message with someone who's searching for hope and clarity.

In this final episode of our Prophecy series, Pastor Alvin bridges the gap between our current reality and God's call for our lives. We're getting honest about carnality, the state of being ruled by our flesh, and how it clouds our ability to hear from God. We'll also discover why conviction is a gift—it's the first step in starting a war against the flesh so we can prophesy clearly. Ask yourself, "Am I carnal?" and let God show you the way forward.

Are you waiting for God to speak… or is there a chance you're missing what He's already said?In this message, Pastor Clayton Bell shows us that one of the clearest ways to hear God is by moving toward the mission He's already given: “Go and make disciples of all nations.” (Matthew 28:19)If you've ever felt spiritually stuck or like God is silent, you might be surprised—His voice often gets clearer when we start saying YES to His mission.In this sermon, you'll learn:- Why God often speaks when we step into action- How living on mission opens your ears to His voice- Practical ways to be a disciple before making disciples- How to focus on your “field” and listen for God dailyWhy you don't have to wait for a mission trip to hear HimKey Scriptures:- Matthew 28:16–20 — “Go and make disciples…”- Matthew 9:37–38 — “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few…”- John 10:27 — “My sheep listen to my voice…”Search Keywords:where to hear God, hearing God's voice, Matthew 28 sermon, great commission explained, how to hear God better, spiritual growth, living on mission, making disciples, God speaking to me, hearing the Holy Spirit, Christian obedienceDon't just wait for God to speak—move toward His mission and hear Him more clearly than ever.Like, Subscribe, and share this message with someone who's ready to say YES to God.

Today we have our regional Pastor, Pete Akins, join us to speak about our story. The end of our story is more important than the beginning. King Hezekiah was known throughout most of His reign as the most obedient King in Judah since David… But he succumbed to pride in the end and will be forever known as the King who paved the way for the Babylonian Exile.  How can we live out our Christianity in such a way that we ensure that the ending of our story brings glory to Jesus. Key Scriptures:2 Chronicles 29:3-8, Isaiah 38:2-3, 2 Kings 20:16-19 

Audio taken from video: https://youtu.be/pAXpOIvrynwAs we begin, I am well aware that many of our viewers came to know the Lord later in life, and may have not had the full opportunity to raise your children in the faith. However, many of you are at an age where you have a second opportunity as grandparents to play a role in influencing both your children and grandchildren by the example you provide by your faith now.Please understand that I am aware that there are a multitude of family dynamics represented in the thousands of households that are represented in our viewers.It is my sincere desire to offer biblical principals to guide you going forward, and in no way do I desire to offer judgment where you have fallen short, or add to the guilt you may feel for shortcomings in your parenting efforts. In today's study, here are the 5 most important things you can do to nurture faith in your children, and grandchildren:1 - Model Genuine Christian Faith2 - Build An Altar In Your Home3 - Create Biblical Habits And Faith Rhythms4 - Encourage Questions And Dialogue5 - Connect Your Family To A Biblical Church With A Godly PastorKey Scriptures for today's teaching: 2 Timothy 1:5-7Other Scriptures in this teaching: Titus 2:7; Genesis 13; Deuteronomy 6:5-9; 2 Timothy 3:14-15; Proverbs 22:6; 1 Peter 3:15-16; Deuteronomy 31:12-13; Hebrews 10:25If you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know! Be sure to watch the curated playlist “New Beginnings” - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsX8E19Azl58_FjxELPxjnsL8CAtmama4&si=Pj84Hm2dGX57OH4Z Thank you for watching, and subscribe for new content each week.Connect with Tiff Shuttlesworth Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LostLambAssociation/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/TIFFSHUTTLESWORTH/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/tiffshuttlesworLearn more about my ministry: https://lostlamb.org/ Learn more about my ministry in Canada: https://www.lostlamb.ca

In this powerful message, Pastor Aaron McRae explores how God's Word is not only God-breathed but incredibly useful—for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.From Billy Graham's life-changing moment of surrender to the authority of Scripture to the Apostle Paul's charge to Timothy, this message reminds us: the Bible is not just ancient text—it's living truth that transforms lives.

Key Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 3:11 Matthew 7:24–27 Ephesians 2:19–22 Psalm 127:1

If God is speaking… am I actually listening?Hearing from God isn't always about volume—it's about posture. In this message, Pastor Clayton Bell walks through 1 Samuel 3 and the story of young Samuel, who had to learn to recognize the voice of God. The same is true for us.With all the noise in our world, how do we dial into the voice that matters most?In this sermon, you'll learn:- How to position yourself to hear from God- Why listening requires consistency, not just crisis- How Scripture, community, and maturity help us discern God's voice- What to do when you're not sure if it's a yes, no, or freedom to chooseHow to pray: “Speak, Lord—your servant is listening.”Key Scriptures:- 1 Samuel 3:1–14 — “Speak, Lord, your servant is listening.”- 1 Samuel 3:19–20 — Samuel's words proved reliable- John 10:27 — “My sheep listen to my voice…”Search Keywords:how to listen to God, 1 Samuel 3 sermon, hearing God's voice, discerning God's voice, does God still speak, spiritual listening, speak Lord your servant is listening, how to hear God clearly, biblical guidance, tuning in to God, Christian discernmentDon't wait for a crisis to ask God to speak—learn to listen well today.Like, Subscribe, and share this message with someone learning to hear from God.

What do we mean when we mention "the age of accountability"? That concept infers that children are not held accountable by God for their sins until they reach a certain age. Is the concept of an age of accountability biblical? Does the Bible define an “age of innocence”?In our Bible study today I would like to answer these three questions.1 - Where is the "age of accountability" mentioned in the Scripture?2 - Why do many Christians claim the age of accountability as 12-13 years old?3 - What happens to children who die before they are old enough to understand the Gospel?-------------------Key Scriptures for today's teaching: Matthew 18:1-6Other Scriptures in this teaching: Isaiah 7:14-15; Deuteronomy 1:37-39; 2 Samuel 12:19-23; Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be from the NLT, the New Living TranslationIf you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know! Be sure to watch the curated playlist “New Beginnings” - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsX8E19Azl58_FjxELPxjnsL8CAtmama4&si=Pj84Hm2dGX57OH4Z Thank you for watching, and subscribe for new content each week.Connect with Tiff Shuttlesworth Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LostLambAssociation/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/TIFFSHUTTLESWORTH/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/tiffshuttlesworLearn more about my ministry: https://lostlamb.org/ Learn more about my ministry in Canada: https://www.lostlamb.ca

Date: July 20, 2025 In this episode of the Overcomer series, we're talking about one of the most essential parts of your spiritual armor—the Breastplate of Righteousness. Straight from Ephesians 6, this message will challenge and encourage you to guard your heart with the righteousness that comes from God. What does righteousness really mean? It's not about being perfect. It's about being positionally made right with God through faith in Jesus (justification), and then choosing to practically live right through obedience and devotion (sanctification). When you wear the breastplate, you protect yourself from shame, temptation, and the lies of the enemy—and you're reminded that your heart belongs to Christ.

Is it God's voice you're hearing—or just background noise? In a world full of voices, how do you make sure you're tuned in to the right one?In this message, Pastor Clayton walks through John 8 to show us how to listen for the voice of Jesus—and why so many miss it even while calling themselves believers. Jesus said, “Anyone who belongs to God listens gladly to the words of God.” (John 8:47)But what if you're not listening? Or never truly belonged to Him in the first place?In this message, you'll learn:- Why belief alone doesn't equal discipleship- How cultural Christianity can dull your spiritual hearing- Why obedience opens your ears to God's voice- What it means to “listen gladly”- How to know if you truly belong to God—or just assumed you did Key Scriptures:John 8:31 — “You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teachings…”John 8:44–47 — “You can't hear me…”John 8:36 — “So if the Son sets you free…”Search Keywords:Hearing God's voice, how to know if you're saved, spiritual deafness, John 8 explained, Jesus' true disciples, listen to God gladly, does God still speak, discipleship vs belief, following Jesus, cultural Christianity, why can't I hear Gods Don't just assume you're close to God—listen for His voice, and respond in obedience.  Like, Subscribe, and share this message with someone who's searching for spiritual clarity.

We focused on spiritual protection, the power of prayer, and Christ's conquest over the world system. Together, we explored our role in spiritual warfare, emphasizing prayer, unity, and walking in faith. Key Scriptures like Ephesians 6 and 2 Corinthians 10 reminded us of the armor we have in Christ and His authority over Satan's system. We also shared personal reflections, discussed family, and lifted up a hospital-related prayer request.

And when you combine it with stillness and mindfulness, it becomes a superpower for clarity, healing, and divine direction.

On the subject of our age in heaven, proper scholarship does not allow us to be authoritative with a precise age. However, the scriptures provide some clues that are worth a closer look. For example, when we read the account of the creation of Adam, and then Eve, it appears from the scriptures that they were created with a discernible age and in the prime of life. In today's study, ‘How Old Will We Be In Heaven', we will answer these 5 questions:1 - Will We Be 33 Years Old Like Jesus In Heaven?2 - Will There Be Children In Heaven?3 - Do The Old Become Young In Heaven?4 - What Will We Be Like In Heaven?5 - How Can You Be Sure You Will Enter Heaven?—————------------------Key Scriptures for today's teaching: 1 John 3:1-3Other Scriptures in this study: 2 Samuel 12:22-23; Isaiah 11:6-9; 1 Corinthians 15:42-44; 1 Corinthians 2:9; Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be from the NLT, the New Living TranslationIf you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know! Be sure to watch the curated playlist “New Beginnings” - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsX8E19Azl58_FjxELPxjnsL8CAtmama4&si=Pj84Hm2dGX57OH4Z Thank you for watching, and subscribe for new content each week.Connect with Tiff Shuttlesworth Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LostLambAssociation/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/TIFFSHUTTLESWORTH/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/tiffshuttlesworLearn more about my ministry: https://lostlamb.org/ Learn more about my ministry in Canada: https://www.lostlamb.ca

The Bible tells us that every person, both believers and unbelievers, has a divine appointment that we must keep. There is coming a day when you will stand before Christ and be judged for your deeds, discussions, and decisions. In today's study on the Great White Throne Judgment, I would like us to focus on these five questions:1 - How many end-time judgments will there be? 2 - Who will be present at the Great White Throne Judgment? 3 - Will there be an opportunity for forgiveness and mercy? 4 - When will the Great White Throne Judgment take place? 5 - What will happen to those present at the Great White Throne Judgment? Key Scriptures for today's teaching: Revelation 20:11-15Other Scriptures in this study: Matthew 25:31-46; I Corinthians 6:3; Jude 6; John 5:22;Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be from the NLT, the New Living TranslationIf you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know! Connect with Tiff Shuttlesworth:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LostLambAssociation/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tiffshuttlesworth/ X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/tiffshuttleswor Learn more about my ministry: https://lostlamb.org/ Learn more about my ministry in Canada: https://www.lostlamb.ca

"God, we're not just asking You to clear the cobwebs—we're asking You to kill the spider.”

In my 50 years of carefully and systematically studying the Bible, I am thoroughly convinced that the doctrine of the rapture is not only securely established in the scripture, I am equally convinced that the rapture will take place before God's outpouring of wrath before the seven years of tribulation.As long as I continue to see the increasing assault against the doctrine of the rapture, I will continue to answer the questions and confusions that are created.In our study today, I would like to point out three significant biblical concepts that provide secure evidence for the doctrine of the rapture, as well as provide three glaring problems for those who disavow the doctrine of the rapture:Problem #1 - The Scripture teaches Christ's return in two distinct and separate events.Problem #2 - Jesus described His return to, the days of Noah and Lot.Problem #3 - Every example in the Scripture provides evidence for the righteous being separated and spared from God's wrath.------------------Key Scriptures for today's teaching: 2 Peter 2:5-9Other Scriptures in this study: Genesis 18:25; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17; Jude 14-15; Zechariah 14:4; Luke 17:26-30; Romans 5:9Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be from the NLT, the New Living TranslationIf you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know! Be sure to watch the curated playlist “New Beginnings” - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsX8E19Azl58_FjxELPxjnsL8CAtmama4&si=Pj84Hm2dGX57OH4Z Thank you for watching, and subscribe for new content each week.Connect with Tiff Shuttlesworth Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LostLambAssociation/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/TIFFSHUTTLESWORTH/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/tiffshuttlesworLearn more about my ministry: https://lostlamb.org/ Learn more about my ministry in Canada: https://www.lostlamb.ca

The Bible says to “desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy” (1 Cor 14:1). Why? Because prophecy builds up, speaks truth in love, and reveals the heart of God to both believers and unbelievers. In week 2 of our SuperNormalNatural series, we explore why prophecy is called “the greatest gift” and how it empowers the Church to move in love, truth, and supernatural clarity. God is still speaking—and He wants to speak through you.

As I often say, I believe the rapture is the next major prophetic event on the calendar of God. Though many attack the doctrine of the rapture, and some even believe that Christians will go through the tribulation period, I believe the weight of the scripture strongly teaches otherwise.In this study I will answer these 3 questions:1 - What will happen to believers after the rapture?2 - What will happen to unbelievers after the rapture?3 - What 4 major prophetic events will happen after the rapture?------------------Key Scriptures for today's teaching: Matthew 24:40-44Other Scriptures in this study: 1 Corinthians 15:48-53; Romans 14:10-12; Revelation 19:7-9; Revelation 22:20Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be from the NLT, the New Living TranslationIf you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know!

With the recent death of Pope Francis and the selection of next pope, social media has lit up with multiple videos and podcasts discussing, the “prophecy of the popes.”Some of you are perhaps hearing about this mysterious prophecy for the first time, while many others have heard about it over the years, but are not certain as to what it is. Should Christians give consideration to this age old prophecy, and should it be taken seriously?In today's study, I would like to answer 3 questions that have been asked about the “prophecy of the popes.”1 - What is the "Prophecy of the Popes"?2 - How Accurate Are the "Prophecy of the Popes"?3 - How Should Christians Respond to Extra-biblical Prophecies?Then we will learn 3 Biblical criteria for judging prophecy:1 - Prophecy Must Align with Scripture2 - Prophecy Should Be Judged by Others3 - Prophecy Must Be Fulfilled------------------Key Scriptures for today's teaching: 1 John 4:1-6Other Scriptures in this study: I Thessalonians 5:19-22; Deuteronomy 13:1-4; 1 Corinthians 14:29; Jeremiah 23:30-32Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be from the NLT, the New Living TranslationIf you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know!

Throughout James' epistle, he is providing evidences for true faith. One of the evidences to test our faith is our speech. As Christians, the scripture teaches us to not only keep our tongue from speaking profanities, and curse words, it equally forbids abusive speech and intentionally hurtful words.When God transforms your life, He will also transform your tongue. The words that come out of our mouth are evidence of our spiritual health.In today's study I will be answering the following questions.1 - How does the Bible define cursing and foul language?2 - What Is Taking The Name Of The Lord In Vain Mean?3 - The Top 10 Bible Verses On Cursing.4 - What Is The Worst Curse Word?------------------Key Scriptures for today's teaching: James 3: 3-12Other Scriptures in this study: Philippians 2:9-11; Matthew 12:36; 1 Peter 4:11; Exodus 20:7; Proverbs 18:21; Matthew 12:34-37; Luke 6:45; Romans 3:13-18; Ephesians 4:29-31; Ephesians 5:3-5; 1 Timothy 4:12; Colossians 3:7-8; James 1:26; Jeremiah 33:8Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be from the NLT, the New Living Translation

"Prosperity" is a biblical word, it is not a "bad" word. What is biblical prosperity? Biblical prosperity is defined as having an abundance of resources to fully accomplish God's will for one's life, and to serve others.According to the scripture, biblical prosperity is a multifaceted covenant that is rooted in God's provision and purpose that not only includes material wealth, but also includes spiritual, physical, emotional, and relational strength.Prosperity isn't a vending machine — it's the fruit of relationship, obedience, and timing. If you've been giving and not prospering, ask the Holy Spirit to search your heart, align your life, and trust that God is faithful to reward those who seek Him (Hebrews 11:6).Christians who do not manage their money well may struggle to prosper because Scripture teaches that stewardship and diligence are essential to experiencing God's blessing.In today's study we will learn…What is biblical prosperity?Why do the wicked prosper while godly people do not?Does the Bible promise material prosperity to all believers?How can I get from "barely getting by" to "having an abundance"?…and the top 10 reasons why Christians do not prosper!------------------Key Scriptures for today's teaching: Luke 16:1-13Other Scriptures in this study: 2 Chronicles 26:5; Proverbs 21:5; Colossians 3:23-25; Proverbs 19:15; Proverbs 15:22; Proverbs 22:7; Proverbs 6:6-8; Proverbs 13:11; Proverbs 21:20; John 6:12; Psalm 84:11; 2 Corinthians 9:6-8; Psalm 112: 1-4 NLT; Matthew 6:33; 3 John 1:2; Psalm 1:1-3; Galatians 6:9Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be from the NLT, the New Living TranslationFor further teachings on angels and demons, see the playlist:If you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know!

Audio taken from the video "What Does the Bible Mean, We Will Judge Angels" - https://youtu.be/HgdMFvGsSiMWe must always allow the principles of biblical interpretation to lead us into the proper understanding of the scriptures!This is of utmost importance when we are reading the scriptures and encounter complex passages that present difficult questions that we may struggle to understand.When we encounter a passage that presents a difficult question, we must never respond with, “I think it means” or filter it through our “personal revelation.” Sadly, this lazy scholarship is far too common, even among Christian leadership.In today's study, we will go over 3 questions:1. How should we approach complex passages in the Bible?2. Will believers judge angels?3. Will we judge heavenly angels or fallen angels?Key Scriptures for today's teaching: 1 Corinthians 6:1-3 & 11Other Scriptures in this study: Revelation 3:21; Jude 6; Hebrews 1:14; Psalm 91:11; Ephesians 1:19-23If you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know! Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be read from the New Living Translation (NLT) Bible.Thank you for listening, and subscribe for new content each week. Connect with Tiff Shuttlesworth:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LostLambAssociation/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tiffshuttlesworth/ X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/tiffshuttleswor Learn more about my ministry: https://lostlamb.org/ Learn more about my ministry in Canada: https://www.lostlamb.ca

What if transformation wasn't about trying harder, but trusting deeper?Today, we'll unpack the beautiful rhythm of being and doing with God—where presence comes before performance, and trust fuels every next step. What changes when you realize you're already in His presence?Key Scriptures:+ 2 Corinthians 3:18. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit.+ 2 Corinthians 4:16. Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer person is decaying, yet our inner person is being renewed day by day.+ Acts 17:28. For in Him we live and move and exist, as even some of your own poets have said, ‘For we also are His descendants.'+ Philippians 4:13. I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.+ Hebrews 13:5. For He Himself has said, “I will never desert you, nor will I ever abandon you."Want to explore more?
