A @Christadelphians Video: Description: The wisdom from above is pure. It is the word of God which abides forever and God, through His word, will mould and develop His character in those who seek Him.# SummaryThe presentation on the Book of James focuses on how faith purifies character and instils confidence in God. It highlights key themes from each chapter, such as the importance of faith under trial, the impact of good works, the discipline of the tongue, and the necessity of humility and patience. The speaker emphasises the practical wisdom found in James, urging listeners to embody God's character and extend mercy and kindness to others, while also reminding them of the power of prayer and the significance of helping those who stray from the truth.# Highlights-
POWER FOR TODAY is intended to equip the believers with the supernatural dimension of God, through the teaching of the unadulterated word of God

rwh22march -Ep.356 – Run With Horses Podcast – How well do you know yourself? Podcast: rwh.podbean.com Website: www.runwithhorses.net Youtube: https://youtube.com/@rwhpodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RWHpodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rwh_podcast Twitter: https://twitter.com/RWH_podcast Author pages with links to all books on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B0BCSDDVLB – James Norman Smith https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B0BMGW51FW – Susan Jane Smith What is self-awareness? According to the Oxford Dictionary: conscious knowledge of one's own character, feelings, motives, and desires. Character: Feelings: Motives: Desires: Have you ever stopped to truly reflect on how you see yourself and how that compares to how God sees you? Self-awareness is vital for spiritual growth and understanding God's will for our lives. It's actually pretty important as a human traveling through life with other humans! There is often a tension between how we see ourselves, how others see us and how God sees us. II. What is Self-Awareness from a Biblical Worldview? Definition of Self-Awareness: The ability to see and acknowledge one's thoughts, feelings, actions, and motivations in the light of God's truth. Understanding our identity in Christ, our strengths, weaknesses, and the call God has on our lives. Scriptural Foundation: Psalm 139:23-24: Romans 12:3: Self-awareness requires humility, recognizing both our value in Christ and the need for personal growth. We often focus on how we compare to those around us rather than to Jesus and who He calls us to be. Pride is easy when we look at others, humility is easy when we focus on Jesus. III. How Can We Become More Self-Aware? Daily Reflection and Prayer: James 1:5: Engage with Scripture: Hebrews 4:12: Seek Accountability and Fellowship: Proverbs 27:17: Practicing Confession and Repentance: 1 John 1:9: IV. Why Is Self-Awareness Important According to Scripture? For Personal Growth in Christlikeness: 2 Corinthians 13:5: Philippians 3:12-14: For Serving Others with Humility: Philippians 2:3-4: For Glorifying God: 1 Corinthians 10:31 Doctrine of the Month Understanding Theology, is crucial for discipleship because it shapes how we relate to God and others, guiding our lives and actions towards imitating Christ. May we all be found faithful, ready, and living for eternity. Until next time, keep your eyes on Jesus and never stop running."

Perhaps you felt like God wasn't answering, or you questioned why He allowed something to happen. Maybe you've wished for some foresight to prevent a disaster, but it didn't come. These are tough questions, and today, we're looking at a passage in Acts that can give us some insight.Scripture Reading: Acts 13: 1-13Summary of the Passage:The story in Acts 12 is dramatic and powerful, showing how God works in unexpected ways. Here's a brief summary:Persecution and Arrest (Acts 12:1-4): King Herod arrests some believers, kills James (the brother of John), and imprisons Peter during the Festival of Unleavened Bread.Prayer and Miraculous Escape (Acts 12:5-17): The church prays earnestly for Peter. An angel rescues him from prison, leading him past the guards and through the gates. Peter goes to the house of Mary, where believers are astonished by his escape.Herod's Downfall (Acts 12:18-23): Herod, failing to find Peter, executes the guards. Later, Herod gives a public address, accepts praise as a god, and is struck down by an angel, dying a gruesome death.Continued Growth (Acts 12:24-25): Despite the persecution, the word of God spreads and flourishes. Barnabas and Saul complete their mission and return with John Mark.Key Themes:Persecution and Prayer:James' Death and Peter's Imprisonment: Herod's actions show the reality of persecution faced by early Christians. The church's response to Peter's imprisonment was earnest prayer. In times of crisis, turning to God in prayer is crucial.Divine Intervention:Angel's Rescue of Peter: God's intervention through the angel demonstrates His power and willingness to deliver His people. The chains falling off, the gates opening by themselves, and the guards remaining unaware highlight the miraculous nature of Peter's escape.God's Sovereignty:Herod's Downfall: Herod's pride and acceptance of divine praise lead to his downfall, showing that God is in control and will not share His glory. Despite persecution, God's plan continues to unfold, and the church grows.Application to Our Lives:Trust in God's Plan: Even when circumstances seem dire, trust that God is at work. James' death and Peter's escape both serve a purpose in God's overarching plan.The Power of Prayer: The early church's earnest prayer played a role in Peter's miraculous escape. In our own lives, we should never underestimate the power of prayer.God's Timing and Methods: God's ways are not always our ways. While we may not understand His timing or methods, we can trust that He is always working for our good and His glory.Conclusion:The story in Acts 12 teaches us that God is always present, even in the darkest times. His ways may be mysterious, and His timing may not align with ours, but He is always in control. Trust in His plan, rely on the power of prayer, aSupport the showJeremy McCandless is creating podcasts and devotional resources | PatreonHelp us continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

08-"The Things That Hinder Our Prayer" (James 4;2-3) by BerkeleyUBF
In the Season Two finale, Jane gives an emotional depiction of not only the posture of Elijah's 1 Kings 18 praying, but the jaw-dropping correlation between the servants going-back and James' talk of prayer in the final verses of James 5. She answers the raw and honest question: "If God's going to do His will anyway, what's the point of praying?" And we dig into the unrelenting power of James' final power-punch of faith and works: the working of faith through prayer (and why fighting through every opposition to persevering prayer is worth every ounce of the war).

Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise. Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. 16 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops. (James 5.13-18, NIV.)
We conclude our study on prayer in James 5. Join us as Pastor Justin Carlton teaches about three marks of effective prayer.
God, in His grace, grants us His wisdom, often through three sources: Prayer (James 1:5), Bible Reading (Psalms 19:7), and Wise Counsel Pro 12:15. These must all agree, or the counsel is suspect. , Hsys Bible in a year: Exodus 23-24, Matthew 20:1-16.
