Romans 4:4-8 — Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones asks, “Who is the man who can be justified?” He answers that it is anyone that produces no works and is ungodly. In accordance with Paul's preaching throughout Romans that would be everyone. Paul says this because the act of justification is entirely a work of Christ and no work that we do could ever be part of that process. In this sermon titled “Justifying the Ungodly” from Romans 4:4–8, Dr. Lloyd-Jones also explains that because all are ungodly, justification does not make them righteous: it means that Christ has imputed His righteousness to their account. In this passage, Paul discusses both Abraham and David, both of whom were people of the Old Testament that received salvation by faith. Paul quotes David in this passage and Dr. Lloyd-Jones explains that forgiveness is noted as the first step in the process of reconciliation. Christ covers sins, forgives iniquities, and does not impute the sins against the sinner. Instead, God imputed those sins on His Son Jesus, which were then taken to the cross. A Christian realizes that they play no part in this process and salvation is purely God's work on the cross.

Ungodly leaders can get so intoxicated by their positional power that they cause those around them to suffer the drunken consequences as well.  This is part 86 in my series on godly leadership.

(This podcast was previously recorded and published on August 25, 2020)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...    They call themselves Christians, but they do that which is right in their own eyes, in their own way of thinking.  They do not call on God for HIS wisdom in the specific issues at hand.   They are like a leaf blowing in the wind.  They go one way then the opposite way without any thought at all.   They do not seem to have faith that God will communicate HIS will to themselves, therefore they don't think to ask God.   The ones who hear from God are like a rock which will never fall.   But the way of the ungodly, those who fail to consider that which God wants them to do, their way of doing things, will perish.    Psalm 1   1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.   2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord (the Word of God); and in HIS law doth he meditate day and night.   3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.   4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.   5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.   6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.      Proverbs 16:25 There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.    

Today we continue our study through the book of Judges. Gideon has passed away and the land has enjoyed 40 years of rest. Unfortunately, his son, Abimilech, has made a play to become king. Abimilech has played the family card to gain a following while also hiring mercenaries to eliminate his competition for leadership. That competition just happened to be his seventy brothers. Ungodly leadership is never beneficial. Scripture text is Judges 9:1-57.

Welcome to Apostolic Ministry, Apostle Jacqueline.Below is a powerful, scripturally grounded deliverance session outline you can use for your morning session on ungodly soul ties, including witchcraft, sexual sin, repentance, renunciation, and breaking of ungodly covenants for both men and women.Introduction: Ungodly soul ties and sexual sin are spiritual bonds and behaviours that entangle the soul, distort identity, and hinder intimacy with God. These strongholds often open doors to oppression, confusion, and delayed destiny if not addressed through repentance and deliverance.I. What Is a Soul Tie? Definition:A soul tie is an emotional, spiritual, or physical bond between two people. It can be godly (e.g., David and Jonathan in 1 Samuel 18:1) or ungodly, especially when formed through sexual immorality, manipulation, abuse, or toxic attachments. Key Verse: “Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For ‘the two,' He says, ‘shall become one flesh.'”— 1 Corinthians 6:16 (NKJV) This Scripture reveals that sexual intercourse is not just physical—it creates a spiritual union, which, if outside of God's covenant of marriage, becomes an ungodly tie.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/apostolic-deliverance-teaching--1288300/support.

In this episode, our host Kyia Mochitani talks about being the only Christian in the room and it isn't always easy. Kyia opens up about the real tension of standing firm in your faith when everyone else is going in a different direction. We talk about saying no to parties, resisting gossip, and choosing purity—even when it costs you popularity, friendships, or inclusion. From dealing with FOMO, to finding your identity in Christ—not culture—we'll walk through practical, biblical encouragement for staying grounded when you feel alone in your faith. You'll hear how to respond when people give you a hard time, how to stay strong in your convictions, and why it's so worth it in the long run. Whether you're in high school, college, or just navigating hard spaces—you're not alone. You were never meant to blend in. You were meant to shine.

How often do you find yourself or someone you know entangled in unhealthy relationships? During this podcast episode, Dr. Watkins and Apostle Hatton discuss the importance of breaking ungodly soul ties, what they are, and how to be freed from them.

Let’s spend time in the Psalms with International Gospel Hour’s “PsalmCast.” No better way to begin a study of the Psalms than with Psalm 1.

We can't always choose who we deal with... However, we can allow people to display their truth and operate accordingly. Whether a gossip, energy vampire, narcissist, or otherwise- once you observe someone's habitual behavior, you can alter yours in a way that preserves your integrity without making them an adversary. Thanks for tuning in and stay blessed, not stressed.
