Delve into themes of repentance, fasting, and seeking divine mercy, emphasizing the importance of genuine spirituality over superficial actions. Discover how turning to God can bring forgiveness, healing, and restoration to one's life. Joel 2:13-14: "So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the Lord your God.

Psalm 69:10: "I wept and chastened my soul with fasting." (1) Turn from Sin (Isaiah 59:2, John 8:34) (2) Turn from Self (Proverbs 3:5-6) and trust in God (Psalm 118:8-9, 16:11).

Have you ever wondered about the divine design of the angelic? Everything God creates carries purpose and intention—angels are no different. In this message, Bill Johnson shares about instances where God's plans, purposes, and ways involve the angelic realm. While our worship and devotion belong to Jesus alone, Scripture reveals that angels play a vital role in the unfolding of His kingdom on earth. What purposes do angels serve in God's design? How do we, as followers of Jesus, partner with Heaven's strategies while keeping our hearts anchored in Him? Join us as we uncover mysteries of the spirit realm and learn how to align with God's divine order, partnering with His presence to see Heaven released on earth.

That’s an entirely different concept altogether that isn’t generated by silly squirrel stories, no matter how delightful they may be. How do you choose joy in the midst of turmoil? If you’ve been listening to this series, you probably know the answer by now! Listen on, dear friend!
Complete joy is only found in Jesus. Are you open to God? What does God want to reveal to you today?
Philippians 4:11, Philippians 4:8, John 10:27, Numbers 6:25, Psalm 16:11
As a third-century man was anticipating death, he penned these last words to a friend: "It's a bad world, an incredibly bad world. But I have discovered in the midst of it a quiet and holy people who have learned a great secret. They have found a joy which is a thousand times better than any pleasure of our sinful life. They are despised and persecuted, but they care not. They are masters of their souls. They have overcome the world. These people are the Christians--and I am one of them."
