Are you aware of the call of God on your life? Every Christian has a full-time ministry in the Kingdom of God. Some know they have a calling and step into it too soon, and others are in the middle of their training, unaware they have been called. But God has a training process He wants us to go through before we can walk in the anointing.

Guilt is a weapon that comes against Christians. It is the subconscious need to be punished. When we have repented and put our sins under the blood of Jesus, God has forgotten our sins, but many times we have not. Guilt is not the conviction of the Holy Spirit. It is not a burden God wants us to bear.
So many people go through life thinking they don't have a choice, "whatever will happen, and there is nothing you can do about it." But with God, this is not true. We have been given a choice. In Deuteronomy 30:19, God says, "I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live." Life and God's abundant life are not out of reach. God is giving us life, but we don't receive it by default; we must make a decision to choose life for ourselves.
In this message, Pastor Dobbs ministers from Daniel 3:17- 18 on how they trusted the Lord despite what it looked like in their life. They were facing a fiery furnace but the Lord stepped into the fiery furnace with them. Do we trust the Lord even if He allows us to be challenged with a difficult task? As you listen to the podcast, learn how to trust the Lord even the more in your everyday life. Scripture: Daniel 3:17-18 17 If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand, O king. 18 But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up.”

Believe and Trust The LORD
It is easy to forget what is most important. Truly, everything in our Christian life flows from our relationship with God. We don't want to take for granted the gift of having a personal relationship with God. Knowing God and praying is a two-way street, and there is no substitute for time alone with God. The closeness of drawing near to God is the source for everything good in life.
In this episode of Arise + Abide, Curtis and Sally explore Isaiah 8:11–22, a powerful passage calling God's people to resist fear and trust wholly in the Lord. In a time of national panic and looming invasion, Isaiah is instructed not to think like the fearful crowd but to honor the Lord as holy and sovereign. Curtis and Sally reflect on the relevance of this message today, urging listeners to reject fear-driven mindsets and instead embrace faith, reverence, and obedience. The conversation highlights the danger of seeking guidance from the dead, the spiritually dead, worldly sources and the importance of clinging to God's word in times of darkness. Even as Isaiah foretells stumbling and judgment, there is a promise shining through: the hope of the coming Messiah. Jesus, the light of the world, calls us out of darkness and into life. Join us as we discuss the challenge of keeping God holy in our lives, trusting Him above all else, and living with confident hope in His promises.

God will judge unrighteousness in due time. At present, we are walking with him in faith and trusting him to accomplish all things for his glory and grace.

There is a creative power in your words. Our words partner with God's Word or the enemy's chatter. Our words not only impact our own lives but also the lives of our family and friends around us. We must learn the authority our words carry so God can use them to change people's lives for the better.
"Trust the Lord!" - Proverbs 3:5-6, James 1:5Ron Bower, Senior PastorOriginal Date: June 1, 2025
Don't get into fear when you hear the word predestination in the Bible. Everything God has planned for our lives is good, but we do reap what we sow. There is good news: God has not "sovereignly" willed bad or evil for our lives. He is always working to bring good, but our own choices dictate whether we partner with God's plan for our lives.
At the end of the day, we trust in the Lord our strength.
What falls under God's sovereignty? And what falls under man's free will? This is a question worth answering. There is so much confusion in the body of Christ around this subject, but the Word clearly has the answer.
Wisdom shows us the snare of fearing people and the safety of trusting the Lord. Fearing people is one of our great struggles in life and it causes many problems. The solution to the fear of people is not found in ourselves, but in turning ourselves over to the Lord and to his care. By trusting in the Lord, the fear of man loses its grip on our hearts and becomes less directive of our steps. Today, may we grow in faith and become less fearful of others. Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world. One of the ways that we pursue this mission is by gathering each Sunday for corporate worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. The corporate nature of this gathering is both edifying to the believer and a witness of God's grace to the world. Sermon speaker is Scott Patty unless otherwise noted.
Many churches only teach about salvation and going to heaven, but that leaves us ill-prepared for the battle we face here on earth. God is training us in the same way parents train their children to prepare them for life. If we listen, we will realize God is preparing us for what we will face next. He is giving us the power to overcome the battles against the enemy. God is preparing us to overcome in the end days.
The biggest step in walking out of manipulation is recognizing when we do it. And the best way to not be manipulated is to recognize when we are being manipulated. Both come from places we don't see God as our source, and places we do not fully have our identity worked out. Manipulation never happens when there a trust in God.
Everyone has been through the pain of being used and manipulated. The places we manipulate are the places we don't see God as our source, places where fear and unbelief are still being allowed to operate. We must not be the ones operating in manipulation, nor can we allow others to manipulate us.

In this episode of Spirit Connection, we have a special excerpt from a recent Monthly Mentoring Session. Doug shares what the Lord is showing him this month. Psalm 33 is rich with promises and plans of the Lord. Doug describes the specific ways the Lord is moving in this season. The post Trust the Lord's Plans Are Being Released [Episode 387] first appeared on Doug Addison.
We are all in a spiritual battle. But it is vital to remember God has set you up to win every single battle. But we must receive and operate in God's resurrection power and walk constantly in God's spiritual armor. In our own strength, we cannot defeat the enemy's principalities and powers. It is when we learn to stop walking in our own strength and start walking in the strength of God's might and His armor that we will have victory.
Reverend Chris Harper - Scripture: Isaiah 19-20
We know we should trust the Lord but how do we actually do that? How do we trust him in pain and uncertainty? Every business owner needs to cultivate this skill.
Pastor John Bingham - A Psalm to Encourage - Psalm 37:1-8
We all need an understanding of the Old Testament, it is the foundation for the New Covenant we have with God. The Old Testament can seem overwhelmingly, complicated, and hard to grasp but truly there is an order to how the different books have been laid out. This teaching will give you a general overview to understand the Old Testament.

The scary thing about deception is when you are deceived, you don't know you are deceived. If we want to know the truth badly enough, God will pull you out of the lies step by step. Deception says, "I'm right!" With no heart to hear or learn anything. Deception is the blind spot, but truth is the spot remover. We all need truth from God's Word and truth spoken by close friends who can see our blind spots.

Joy is the Lord's strength for these chaotic times. Do you see Joy as an emotion? As long as you see Joy as an emotion you will continue to let it slip through your fingertips. Joy is not an emotion; it is a character trait of God. Learn how to stay in the joy God has given you.
What is the antidote for a busy heart? How do we quiet ourselves? In this sermon from Psalm 131, Dr. Greg Gifford helps us see where we may have too high a view of ourselves, thinking only we can accomplish a particular task, and taking on things that are not meant for us to do. Like the psalmist, may we quiet and calm our souls, look to the Lord, and put our hope in him. From our Sunday service at Grace Bible Church of Bend.

There are many different ways to hear God's voice. God does speak audibly at times but there are other ways that are usually more common. Sometimes, we can be so stuck on hearing God's voice audibly that we are missing how He is speaking to us. Don't put God in a box. He has many ways He wants to speak to us.
Have you trained yourself to know what is coming from the voice of God and the enemy? We must learn to adjust our hearing from listening in natural to listening in the Spirit. There are some secrets to learning to focus and position ourselves correctly while we are learning to discern God's voice.
Please listen to this teaching as many times as it takes to start truly overcoming the enemy and getting his schemes underneath your feet. The Authority of the Believer - Peggy Joyce Ruth talks about how it is vital that Believers learn to walk in their God given authority. God put mankind in authority over the earth, but we handed it over to Satan in the garden. Now, through what Jesus did on the cross, we have been given authority over satan, sin, sickness, self, and situations.
Prayer should be fun. It should not be ritualistic. Prayer is a conversation with our heavenly Father, who loves us. Just like we enjoy having long talks with our friends or earthly parents, we can have an even greater enjoyment in our relationship with God.
Jesus is different than every other religion. Every other religion's principles could exist without their founders, but Christianity could not exist without Jesus. Christianity is not simply a doctrine; it is a person. It is more than rules; it is a marriage with Jesus that changes us from the inside out.
Our fight is not won by fighting in our own flesh and blood strength but by fighting the enemy in God's strength. But even though we are fighting in God's strength, it is still OUR struggle; it is OUR warfare, and we must learn how to overcome in God's strength. We must learn how to fight and overcome the enemy. If we don't know, we are fighting with principalities and powers we are already losing. Until the power of Satan is broken, there are different strongholds over individuals, homes, churches, communities, regions, and nations. According to 2 Corinthians 10:5, it is OUR job to pull down strongholds that exalt themselves above the knowledge of God.
Self-pity is a magnet that draws bad things to you. It keeps you immobile, always looking inward and rarely toward God. When God didn't approve of Cain's offering, he got into self-pity instead of asking God where he was wrong. He continued down the road of self-pity and then self-destruction.
When we let offense set in our heart, it can become deadly. How you handle opportunities to be offended will determine whether you grow or not spiritually. Offense can trip us up, cause us to stumble, and ultimately entices us into sin. Offense is something we need to want to get rid of completely. Ask the Lord if there is any area you have been offended, and then repent to the Lord until you feel that area is cleared up.
