Podcasts about pastor allen jackson

How do you know when God is moving amongst His people? You'll see repentance, humility, and transformed hearts. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses God's movement and involvement in our lives. He teaches from the book of Acts to demonstrate the power, glory, and righteousness of God and how the world's values fail to align with the Lord's. It isn't just a battle over law and order—there's a spiritual conflict unfolding. We're watching as morality continues to degrade, but there is hope! When we stand firm in our faith and trust the Holy Spirit to guide us in His perfect plans, God will bring us out of the darkness and into His light.

The culture is shifting, and the season has changed. It can be agitating and frightening, but it means something else, too: Jesus' return is drawing closer. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can be prepared for our Lord's return. The Bible tells us that deception and conflict, both physical and spiritual, will increase as the End of the Age approaches. Pastor Allen shows how we see this in our world today, then he shares God's instructions for standing firm. Living in the truth of God's Word and relying on His wisdom and peace will be essential. We've been asked to overcome a number of daunting things—our own carnal desires, evil, Satan's kingdom—but God hasn't left us alone. We can trust in the Lion of Judah.

It can be easy to say, “God, I believe You will deliver me from hardship.” However, what we should learn to say is, “Whether I see Your deliverance come the way I want it to or not, I will not stop worshiping You.” In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses depending on God and trusting in His timing. He teaches from the Old Testament book of 2 Kings to demonstrate our need for a deeper understanding of God's character. We can trust that He is sovereign, holy, and righteous, so when we face discouragement, we know that our God gives us the power to overcome. God has given each of us enough faith to begin His work—and He will help us finish.

Spiritual beings exist, and they impact our world far more than politicians, governments, and other authorities. They also directly influence our thoughts, emotions, and actions.  Allen Jackson is no stranger to the impact that unseen spiritual influences can have in our lives. As the pastor of a Nashville area church with more than 15,000 members, Jackson has made it his mission to help people become more fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ. Paramount to that cause is his desire to provide keen theological insight on unexplainable spiritual forces in our lives. In his latest book, “Angels, Demons, and You”, Jackson explores what the Bible has to say about angels, demons, and their roles on the earth and in our lives. In doing so, he provides valuable insight, practical tools, and Biblical truths to help us recognize the spiritual battle around us and how to stand firm in our faith. Jackson joins me to chat about why spiritual warfare is so relevant in today's world. Listen as he shares key signs that someone may be experiencing angelic or demonic activity and what we can do about it.

Through Jesus, the Lion of Judah, we have been given authority over Satan and the kingdom of darkness. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson helps us understand our identity in God's Kingdom. We've been appointed as ambassadors; we're representatives with assignments to complete for the Lord. Pastor Allen shares what it means to be a “stranger in the world,” and he teaches the importance of standing firm against our sinful desires. God has invited us into His family as His children, and through His love, mercy, and power, we can overcome the enemy.

There are two lions stalking the earth with opposite objectives, but they don't have equal power. Jesus has won total, complete, eternal, irreversible victory over Satan and the kingdom of darkness. The Lion of Judah has triumphed! In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the spiritual conflict raging in the earth and how we can stand firm against the enemy by staying close to the Lion of Judah. We are not powerless or called to be spectators in this fight. We are invited to join the triumphal procession God has planned. Pastor Allen explains that the key to resisting the enemy and spending time in the presence of the Lion of Judah is praise, worship, and yielding our whole person to Jesus Christ—our strength, our intellect, our resources, our calendar, and our priorities. When we worship, it reframes our perception of ourselves and God, strengthening us to stand immovable and triumphant in our faith—even when we're confronted with the roar of the lion. 

The Bible says we are God's people and the sheep of His pasture, and the enemy is like a lion prowling the earth seeking whom he may devour. But there is another Lion who holds all power: Jesus Christ. Without Him, we are inadequate to face the threat of the enemy. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson invites us toward a new position in our faith—to believe that obedience and service to God will empower us to stand firm, not only for the transformation of our hearts but the transformation of nations. Politicians and earthly powers cannot resolve our problems. If the Church stays silent amid evil, we abandon our world to destructive influences and chaos. We need to stand with the Lion of the tribe of Judah.

Many false versions of the gospel are flourishing in the Church right now—what are they, and how can we recognize them? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the symptoms of widespread deception, distortion, and manipulation happening under the umbrella of “faith” today. He warns us to live with an awareness of messages that pervert the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ to fit a popular worldview, agenda, or cultural fad. We learn from Peter and Paul that this is not a new problem; it's an age-old issue. To remain grounded in the Truth, we need to stay close to our Shepherd, the Lion of the tribe of Judah.

It's easy to hold onto bitterness and resentment when we feel rejected, so why does God ask us to forgive? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses five steps we can take to heal from rejection: Recognize when we experience rejection, accept Jesus as the example, let go of our bitterness, receive and believe God's provision, and accept ourselves. Pastor Allen speaks about how emotions and spiritual forces try to influence us, but following God's design for relationships brings spiritual freedom. We don't have to be defined by our pain—God values us, and He has already made provision to accept us into His family.

Rejection and disappointment will wound us all, so how can we overcome the pain they bring? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the remedy for rejection found in Jesus. He shares the story of Joseph and his family, and how hurtful situations can affect people differently. Pastor Allen also shows how, no matter what circumstance we face, Jesus has provided the acceptance we seek. He teaches about the Divine Exchange, where Jesus traded his perfect holiness for our sins and hurts. Because of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross, we have been promised joy, honor, and glory in the midst of shame and rejection—and we can live in the freedom that provides.

We can't eliminate rejection from our lives, but it doesn't have the power to keep us from God's best. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses rejection, its causes, and God's acceptance. Leaders like David, Moses, and our Lord Jesus all faced immense rejection in their lifetimes, and Pastor Allen speaks about how God helped each of them overcome. He also shares a few common causes of rejection: broken families, betrayal, and shame. While each of us will be touched by rejection in our lives, we don't have to live in its bondage. We can find freedom through our acceptance into God's Kingdom and His family.

We often think following God should be easy, but He frequently calls us to places, positions, and expressions of faith that can lead to conflict. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses this fact by offering five lessons we can learn from the life of King David. Many times, following God's direction can lead to division or spiritual conflict, but when we are diligent to keep following God's plans for our lives, He will always provide what we need. Every season comes with struggles, and as we continually learn about God and His Kingdom, we become better equipped to overcome hardships and rejection. Cooperating with God for His purposes is the greatest opportunity we've been given, so let's listen and obey Him—even when it leads to adversity.

It's not often talked about in our culture today, but we can experience both God's intervention in our lives and the consequences of our sin. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the anointing of King Saul over Israel in the book of 1 Samuel. He shares how the Israelites chose complaints over godliness, and how Samuel was obedient to the Lord even through rejection. The history of Israel teaches us many lessons, and in this chapter, we get to reflect on the condition of our hearts—so let's practice repentance and strive to honor God daily.

Jesus said, “My sheep hear My voice.” One of the most essential skills we can cultivate is knowing God's voice and listening to Him. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the choice each generation has to align with God and learn to listen. Pastor Allen teaches from the book of 1 Samuel, where he shares lessons in topics like parenting, thankfulness, listening, and rejection. He gives us five steps we can begin to implement today to grow our listening skills, and we learn from the people of Israel the importance of joy over complaining. We each have a choice to make. Will we choose to know God?

God leads His people into a land of His promises. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can live under the blessings of God. Our Lord made covenants with His people, and under those covenants we have complete, total, and entire provision. Pastor Allen teaches the importance of obedience and forming a true relationship with Christ so we can live in His promises.

Are we aware that we're serving someone every day—God, ourselves, or the kingdom of darkness? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses serving the Lord. Jesus calls us to be servant leaders for Him, and He demonstrates what that looks like in the Gospels. Pastor Allen teaches five characteristics of servants: surrendering our wills, practicing contentment, being entrusted with authority, understanding the limits of authority, and knowing who we are serving. We've been offered the highest invitation of our lives. Are we willing to serve the King?

Pastor Allen Jackson of World Outreach Church briefly mentioned the name "Evelyn Simpson" in one of his sermons recently and host Sue Duffield, and her husband Jeff were quickly thrust into a reminiscent journey. Today's episode features that surprise of remembrance of the early days when introduced to the singing Simpson Family and the Full Gospel Businessmen's International Fellowship Conventions, both in Philadelphia and New York City. It's interesting how when memories surface, the trail of reflection goes on and on. We hadn't thought about Evelyn Simpson in years. Those early musical influences in our lives made a significant impact, and there's no doubt that the Simpsons were truly one of those early inspirations for these two teenagers! www.sueduffield.com  

Everything we have is a blessing from God, and how we handle our resources has a spiritual impact. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how to be a good steward of our resources, gifts, and talents. He shares some of the Bible's promises surrounding money, and he corrects three common misconceptions about wealth and Christianity—that it's unspiritual to be rich, everyone should share equally, and prosperity is an indicator of holiness. God gives each of us gifts and abilities, and we have the opportunity to use them to advance His Kingdom!

Biblical peace is not an absence of hardship; it's finding peace in Jesus, no matter what we face. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses God's promised peace: peace with our Lord, ourselves, and each other. He shares five steps to applying biblical peace to our lives, drawing encouragement from the psalmists, prophets, and apostles. God tells us we can overcome fear, anxiety, and worry when we turn our eyes and hearts to Him—because nothing we face is more powerful than His peace.

God's promises enable us to live a God-designed life. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how to inherit the promises of God. It starts with intending to honor Him as Lord of our lives—then choosing to listen to Him and obey His Word. Pastor Allen shares the importance of faith, patience, and cooperation in fostering a strong relationship with Jesus—one that helps us overcome any trials and hardships we face. God calls us to be overcomers, and He will give us the resources we need when we put our trust in Him.

God's provision is through His promises, and those promises are our inheritance. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses what it looks like to be part of God's Kingdom in the earth. God has a plan and a purpose for each of us, and when we determine to live according to His will, He will provide for us every step of the way. Pastor Allen teaches about the biblical leader Joshua and the hardships he endured through faith, as well as New Testament examples of perseverance and trust in the Lord. Fulfilling our purpose in God's Kingdom will require faith, trust, and endurance—but it's the most important thing we will ever do.

Our thoughts impact our words, and our words can define our reality. How can we ensure our reality reflects growing spiritually in the Lord? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson shares two behaviors the Bible tells us are essential for growing: giving thanks to God and guarding our hearts. Gratitude starts in our thoughts, and Pastor Allen teaches about the benefits of thankfulness versus complaining. He shares stories of the Apostle Paul, Silas, Jonah, and Job to demonstrate the power of praise, even in discouraging and frightening situations. Let's be willing to engage in behaviors that allow God to bring new growth into our lives!

God's Spirit can bring us lasting and complete peace, no matter the circumstances. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the need for gratitude in our daily lives. When we practice thankfulness to God for His perfect character and provision, He gives us His peace—a peace that surpasses understanding. Pastor Allen teaches about the biblical foundation for a gratitude that dispels anxiety, as well as how to live out this biblical idea. Additionally, he shares about the consequences of ungratefulness we see throughout the Bible. We can be secure in God's peace when we give expression to thankfulness.

We have a heritage of faith, but we're not just studying history. God has called us to this time and place to complete an assignment. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the United States' Christian beginnings and the obligation we have to uphold godly ideals in our culture today. Pastor Allen shares about Elijah's and Jesus' difficult assignments—and how they overcame opposition with God's strength. We all have a sphere of influence and a mission from the Lord, so let's work at recognizing His movement and saying yes to His invitations!

We're not just watching history—we're living in the middle of God's unfolding purposes. In this message, Pastor Allen Jackson calls us to wake up, speak up, and stand with bold faith. As he refers to Scripture from throughout the Bible, Pastor Allen teaches if you reject the Truth and you follow evil, you will face a God of wrath and anger. That's not a threat; it's awareness (Romans 2:8). As the nations rage and Israel takes center stage, we must understand our role as God's people in this unique moment. It's time to embrace responsibility, reject passivity, and align with God's eternal promises. He's moving—let's not miss it.

We see the battle between good and evil throughout the Bible and in the world around us. But do angels and demons influence our lives today and if they do, how do they interact with us?Joining Frank on the program this week is Pastor Allen Jackson from World Outreach Church in Murfreesboro, TN.

From his humble beginnings as the son of an equine veterinarian, to a ministry that now reaches and encourages 3,000,000+ people per week around the globe, you'll see why Allen says, "The One we serve is great and we serve at His pleasure!"Resources mentioned during the episode:World Outreach Church - https://wochurch.org/Allen Jack Ministries - https://allenjackson.com/Allen's podcast - https://cultureandchristianity.org/podcast/Angels, Demons, and You - https://bit.ly/3TYYC1SGod Bless America Again - https://bit.ly/3IcTlRL

Understanding the conflict between Israel and Iran requires us to look at it from a biblical perspective—not a geopolitical one. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the current struggle between Israel and Iran, and what the Bible has to say about it. He offers insight on the history of the Middle East and the nation of Israel, illuminating the pattern of antisemitism we've watched for millennia. He also shares how we can respond to God shaking the earth. God will keep His covenant with His chosen people, and as Christ-followers, we need a deeper level of understanding of the significance of Israel and the Jewish people.

We all lead our lives under authority, but we must be conscious of which authority we're choosing. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how our lives should look under authority of the King, drawing from biblical examples including Jonah, Moses, and Abraham. We all need the humility to say, “I am under the authority of the King. I have raised my hand, and I'm going to run my race, complete my course, and I will not stop. In the name of Jesus, I will finish triumphantly!” Living a life fully under God's authority will bring freedom, but it also requires obedience to Him and a heart change.    To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world, visit this link: allenjackson.com/podcastdonate
