We continue our “Kingdom Come” series this weekend as we look to answer the question: “WHY AM I HERE?” So often, we ask ourselves questions about life and its meaning. Given the circumstances and situations we face today, we can develop legitimate feelings of confusion, doubt, and anxiety. Could this be due to viewing our lives and existence from the wrong perspective? Do we feel like there has to be more to this life because there is actually more to this life? We were made for more! This week, we will continue to explore a Heavenly Perspective, so that as Citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven, we can live lives of Power and Authority through Jesus Christ. Join us as we seek to see “His Kingdom Come and Will Be Done, On Earth As It Is In Heaven”
Sometimes, life challenges our faith and understanding. In this video, we explore the concept of "God's Will Be Done." Discover what it means to surrender to a higher plan, find strength within uncertainty, and trust in God's guidance even when the path seems unclear. #thewillofgod Connect with us Here; Subscribe to Youtube Here: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheGospelofJesusChristOnline Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheGospelOn/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/JesusChristGos1 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jesuschristgospelonline/ Pinterest: https://pinterest.com/jesuschristgospelonline0377/ Blogger: http://jesuschristgospelon.blogspot.com/ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-gospel-of-jesus-christ/support

Hi friend! So before I bring you all the truth bombs on this Monday, I want you to know just how much I am thankful for you! It's days like today, where I am reminded how blessed I truly am. It's days like today, where I get to show up here for you & remind you how blessed you truly are too! Yesterday at my oldest son's baseball tournament, I got the opportunity to talk about Her Best Self Co. & all that we are doing in the business to love on women all across the globe. I felt empowered, honored & proud to share love on another woman as I cheered my son on from the sidelines. It was a remarkable day! But I was reminded that not so long ago, I myself was trapped. I had to hit rock bottom & rebuild my life...I had to make an AGREEMENT with me. Fast forward to the present, I'm in awe of how amazing it is to love on you sweet friend & provide inspiration to you. Inspiration that I longed for when I was struggling with my eating disorder. ~ Oh, & yes, I forgot to mention my son's team won the big trophy & you would have thought it was one million dollars in cash! Those 10 year old faces dripped with sweat & bliss. They were champions! Winners! They grew a little bit wiser & with a little more confidence, as they cheered, huddled & cried on the field after the game. But before they became champions, they had to stand in agreement of exactly what they wanted. & the same goes for you sis! Today on the podcast, I share with you the MOST powerful commitment you will EVER make with you! This one is oh so good! (& yes, I'm sorta bias) ~ You see, if you struggle with thoughts about food controlling your life, then you have most likely spent so much brain energy arguing for your limitations & standing in agreement with the enemy. It's time to take your power back! ~ I want you to breathe in & breathe out...& listen in to Episode 149 if you want a TRUE transformation in your heart & in your life today! Matthew 18:19 say's it best: " I tell you, that if two of you agree here on earth about ANYTHING, whatever you ask for, it WILL BE DONE." I'm believing IN AGREEMENT with you for your recovery freedom. xo, lindsey Find All the Things -＞ wwww.herbestself.co ______ Coach with Me -＞Client Application ______ Email me directly -> info@lindseynichol.com ______ Join the free FB community -> www.herbestselfsociety.com ______ Need a helping hand guiding you girl!?

RELEASING IS TRUSTING, saying, “Krishna, even though it didn't work out my way, even though I can't be the king, all things work for my good.” I believe you STILL have something good in my future. There's POWER in letting go. We're not saying to let go of your dreams, your promises. We're saying instead, […] The post God's Will Be Done appeared first on Radha Krishna Temple in Utah.
With this Episode there is more transparency as we discuss being overlooked...(exhales) its gettin' real out here in these streets! This was a tough episode to do but NEVERTHELESS GOD's WILL BE DONE. I feel like being overlooked has happened to me over and over again but as I continue to grow in God I also aim to embrace and understand that if no one sees me, God sees me and at the end of the day that is what matters most. I share experiences from childhood until I became a teenager so this episode is a bit more lengthier than the other episode's that have already been created. This is the topic that God wanted to be discussed so I pray it encourages you because the Lord wanted someone to here this! here we go! Episode 4 Everyone! Feel free to write me, comment, share I'd like to know your thoughts.

Michelle continues her quest to discover keys to Revival in Psalm 119 reading verses 169-176 in the Passion Translation. Today, we'll look at the question: “Who or What am I following after?” As our hearts search our soul for the answer, we will look at the Key of Worship as our life’s pursuit Show Transcript: You are listening to the Blooming Inspired Podcast on the Blooming Inspired Podcast Network. We exist to empower the voices of women who live their lives #BloomingAlive through Podcast Community. Now, here is your host. Blooming Inspired Podcast equipping and empowering the voices of women who live their lives Blooming Alive. Introduction Good Morning! This is Michelle Bentham, host of Blooming Inspired Podcast. I want to take a moment to encourage you. I don’t know if you’ve been in the thick of spiritual warfare lately, but around the lake here in Granbury it has been amped up. Last week my prayer group and I took the time to stand and pray with other prayer groups around our nation and in other countries. We have been praying together a few years and asking God to move in our personal lives, our families, our city, county, region, state and nation as well as throughout the entire world. As we did, things began to happen and even though we experienced resistance in the spiritual realms there was breakthrough. My friend, Deb DeArmand just released a new quick-read devotional packed with humor and practical wisdom called Bumper Sticker Be-Attitudes over at Amazon.com. And even though this sounds like some kind of shameless promotion, I wanted to share something she posted on Facebook: “It’s never too late to finish, and it’s always too early to quit.” This happens to be a chapter title in her book. As I think about this encouragement I’m drawn to a particular Scripture. Galatians 6:9 in The Passion Translation reads this way: “And don’t allow yourselves to be weary or disheartened in planting good seeds, for the season of reaping the wonderful harvest you’ve planted is coming!” Don’t give up! Yes, the battle in this season may be hard, but victory and breakthrough are on the other side. Just like the tiny seed that is birthed beneath the hard earth. It take a lot of stick to it and determination to breakthrough - but once you do there is light and life -- especially opportunities to grow in abundance and bear much fruit. So stay at it, friends. The other side of the story - the harvest is worth the price you pay. And be sure to pick up Deb’s book over at Amazon.com and leave a review once you’ve read it. You can click the link in this post for more information about her book! Now--- For our final reading in Psalm 119 in “The Revival Series.” I have to say I am grateful to be at the end of this journey with you today. WHY? You may be asking. Well, remember at the beginning way back in May - 28 Episodes ago, I began reading in Psalm 119:1… I told you that I felt God has encouraged me to read Psalm 119 back in 2014 but each time I tried I couldn’t get past the first 20 verses? Yes. Well, that struggle WAS VERY REAL. Amen? I didn’t see myself as the person who was happy to keep God’s commands, and His Word. Not that I ddin’t try to be obedient, and remain in His word daily. Not that at all… But, because I didn’t see myself as a person of integrity. I know. This may be news to you… But, friends. I”ve lived most of my life with an impoverished spirit hanging on me like an old coat. Anytime success or a move in God’s direction got me excited, there the enemy would be trying to discourage me by reminding me of not only the horrible past I had lived, but also the struggle with strongholds and temptation to sin I face daily. I believed deep in my heart I’d never change completely until I got to Heaven and saw Jesus. In truth, I was trying to change myself not trusting God to do it… So in 2016 when in prayer I felt the Holy Spirit nudge me and ask me why I had not read Psalm 119 as the Lord had put on my heart to do… I responded, “Because I cannot find myself in it.” Then is when I felt like Jesus pulled my face up in His hands and said, “Beloved, you aren’t supposed to read Scripture to find yourself… Your supposed to read Scripture to find Me.” That’s a life-changing truth right there, my friends. A life changing truth. Maybe you need to hear that for yourself today. God’s Word - the fullest expression of Himself to us - is Jesus. The primary way He reveals Himself to us in this season is through the Scriptures, but Holy Spirit is the great Revelator. He guides us into all truth. And He will teach us to hear and respond to the Shepherd’s voice if we will only give ourselves to the process. Surrender is a position of obedience and victory in God’s Kingdom. Let’s surrender one more time to read our last 8 verses of Psalm 119. This week we are going to be reading from Psalm 119:169-176 in the Passion Translation - so grab your favorite Bible translation to read from and let’s get ready to read by reviewing what we covered last time. Review In our last episode, we read verses 161-168 as we continued to discover keys to revival. As we read, we considered the question: “What Do I Have My Heart Set On?" And as we walked through each verse we picked up another Revival Key that comes from remaining devoted to God’s Word. That key is a longing and a hunger for more of Him through His Word. That desire to go deep into God’s Word leads us to discover both His love and His power in a way that compels us to change and live only for Him. As we read through verses 169-176 today, I want you to ask yourself, “Who or What am I following after?” As our hearts search our soul for the answer, we will look at the Key of Worship as our life’s pursuit This Week’s Reading So Now Let’s Pray, Father God, I ask that you would give each person within the sound of my voice an encounter with You, Your Son and the Holy Spirit this morning as we read Your words of life together. Impart the truth of who You are to our hearts, minds, souls and bodies today - we ask for Holy Spirit revelation to open our eyes to the way You see, open our ears to hear Your majestic voice, and open our hearts to know Your heart in intimacy and truth. I thank you that when we believe in Christ, we are hidden in Him and His blessings. Let our heart’s rend themselves before you today in a sacrifice of praise as we give our lives to worship you - the only one who is worthy of all praise! Remind us of these truths as we read today and make them real for us! I ask these things in Jesus’ Holy Name, AMEN. The heading for today’s reading is, “I Want To Follow You” Verse 169: Lord, listen to my prayer. It’s like a sacrifice I bring to you; I must have more revelation of your word! Do you hear that? Our prayers and longing for God are a sacrifice that praises and glorifies Him as God. It keeps us dependent upon the Holy Spirit’s revelation as we seek to know Him through His Word. My heart is tender to the glory of God in this hour. My morning has been full of distractions - people requesting time with me for coaching, sharing and declaring His truth in our lives. I’ve also been praying with my prayer sisters and receiving revelation for a loved one as I’ve reviewed what God has taught us through the last six months of our lives together. And then, the posts about the horrible massacre of the families from LeBaron, Mexico. I’ve seen the reports, and I personally know family members here in the states who broke away from their lifestyle. But, if in our religious piety as Christians we can have no compassion for people who were murdered for the simple fact that they existed. If we cannot pray for the people of Mexico in this hour who are tormented, tortured and terrorized by the drug-lords and cartels. Then who is the God we are serving? I don’t have to agree with their lifestyle to grieve for their loss. I don’t have to know them to love them from His perspective. Jesus died on the cross for both those murdered in Mexico yesterday and for the drug-lords and cartel members, and the corrupt government who has allowed this to go on unabated for decades. God’s arm is not too short to save, but His people seem to have hardened hearts when it comes to their desire for justice. May His mercy endure and His goodness be made known to those who grieve today. May He put His protective hand on the citizens of Mexico in this hour and all who make their home there. May His loving-kindness and tender mercy bring repentance and deliverance for both the people and the oppressors and may those who pray for peace and safety find it in Him today. In Jesus’ name, amen. Verse 170: Take my words to heart when I ask you, Lord; rescue me, just like you promised! Micah 6:8 commends us that God has shown us how to live our lives in surrender to Him. My memory reflects it this way, “Do justice (in our own hearts), love mercy (toward other people) and walk in humility with oug God.” So often, our heart cry to God is for mercy for ourselves, we do love mercy for ourselves. And we also cry out for justice toward those we deem wrong, hurtful or criminal. And in so doing, I believe we grieve the heart of God as He was so willing to lay His life down for us to be free, but we cannot cross that line of sacrifice and give up our own rights and prideful judgments to minister His love and mercy to those who offend us the most. It’s no wonder we find Him absent in the midst of tragedy when our hearts will not bend to sacrifice for Him in our praise. Verse 171: I offer you my joyous praise for all that you’ve taught me. When the worship music plays at church, when the circumstances are overwhelming your heart, when people are hurting you and fear consumes you - Where Do You Find Your Heart Focused? The only way to live in joyous praise for all He has taught you is to make every moment of your life an act of worship. If the music at church, the actions of others, the circumstances or pain of your life and fear are consuming your focus - if you aren’t focused on who God is, what He has promised you and the way He has delivered you over and over again - then you will not be able to offer Him your joyous praise. Joy is a gift from God - happiness, is fleeting and temporary, but the state of being the blessed of God defies all circumstances determined only by the condition of our heart before Him. Will we bow and bend to His will or be driven by the wanton fear that compels us to forsake His perfect love? Verse 172:Your wonderful words will become my song of worship, for everything you’ve commanded is perfect and true. My favorite worship song right now might surprise you… It’s Kanye West’s title song from the album “Jesus is King.” This song is the exclamation point on a beautiful, resounding chorus of words that tells the story of one who was lost and became found by God. Of The Son who is worthy of celebrating, and the way a surrendered life to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords brings life to even those that society calls crazy, vain and unworthy. I know Scripture, and the words of worship I hear on the lips of Kanye West are the highest praise for a worthy King. Verse 173: Place your hands of strength and favor upon me, for I’ve made my choice to follow your ways. When God’s strength comes to you, His favor rests upon you - the key is to choose. God has given us the ability to choose who and what we worship and pursue in life. When we make Him our life’s pursuit, His strength empowers us and His favor carries us into places that would never be open to us without Him. The most obvious gates that open to us, the gates of Heaven and living in His eternal presence beyond our life on earth. And that favor alone is worth everything - He is worthy of surrender, worship and the highest praise. Verse 174: I wait for your deliverance, O Lord, for your words thrill me like nothing else! A heart focused on the promises of God, having experienced His life-giving presence and the fulfillment of His promises will wait patiently for His deliverance and timing as we remain steadfast in our worship of Him. Verse 175: Invigorate my life so that I can praise you even more, and may your truth be my strength! A heart bent on worshipping God seeks revival for one purpose - To praise God even more. To seek truth at all costs. To be strengthened and enraptured by the joy of the Lord which is our strength. Verse 176: I’ll never forget what you’ve taught me, Lord, but when I wander off and lose my way, come after me, for I am your beloved! Knowing God shouldn’t just change the way we think or act, it should change the way we worship. We will rest in His unfailing love when we remember that the final Key to Revival is a life surrendered in daily worship to the most high and majestic God of the Universe who is our only source of life, hope and redemption. Amen? I’m about to read you the keys we’ve discovered through Psalm 119 these last six months.

The subtitle for this passage was “I Long To Obey You” and we discovered the KEY TO REVIVAL: Sin’s Grief As we come into this place of living from His presence, in obedience to all that Scripture reveals Him to be, we begin to look around and see the state of our fellow man and the decaying world culture that surrounds us giving us a grief from God’s heart over sin and its consequences. We understand His justice comes through loving-kindness and tender mercy - offering salvation to those who most grievously offend. Our grief compels us to follow God’s heart to intercede for God’s breakthrough, salvation and mercy in the world and lives around us. We desire for His Kingdom to Come and Will Be Done on Earth as it is in Heaven. Key Verse: When I witness the rebellious breaking your laws, it makes me weep uncontrollably! - Psalm 119:136 TPT In Episode 144, we read Psalm 119:137-143! The subtitle for this passage was “God’s Word is Truth” and we discovered the KEY TO REVIVAL: Freedom As we discover the freedom that comes from God’s word that burns like fire in our bones, a furious passion for His truth and His freedom rises in us. Just like the disciples who encountered the resurrected Christ on the Damascus road, we recognize His presence and His power when our hearts burn within us as His words are spoken over us, through us and from the Scriptures.

The subtitle for this passage was “Save Me, O God” and we discovered the KEY TO REVIVAL: Surrender As God’s words burn like fire in our bones, stirring a passionate fire within our hearts for His presence and His word, we realize our utter dependence on God as our source - our source of life, our source of existence, our source of salvation and our source of victorious eternal life. Only He can save us and redeem us which leads us to surrender to His lordship and His love, asking Him to weave Himself into the very fiber of our being as we find ourselves in Him. Key Verse: Before the day dawns, I’ll be crying out for help and wrapping your words into my life.- Psalm 119:147 TPT In Episode 146, we read Psalm 119:152-160! The subtitle for this passage was “Breathe Life Into Me Again” and we discovered the KEY TO REVIVAL: Heart Cry As God’s words blaze themselves into the very fiber of our being, revival comes to our hearts. We cry out to Him in trial and affliction, and perseverance, strength and power reinforce us as Holy Spirit breathes life into our soul and spirit once again. This is a key to personal and corporate revival. Key Verse: Lord, see how much I truly love your instructions. So in your tender kindness, breathe life into me again. 119:159 TPT In Episode 147, we read Psalm 119:161-168!

This causes us to hunger and thirst for His righteousness. A hunger and thirst that is most fulfilled when we give ourselves wholeheartedly to His Word.

Michelle continues her quest to discover keys to Revival in Psalm 119 reading verses 169-176 in the Passion Translation. Today, we'll look at the question: “Who or What am I following after?” As our hearts search our soul for the answer, we will look at the Key of Worship as our life’s pursuit Show Transcript: You are listening to the Blooming Inspired Podcast on the Blooming Inspired Podcast Network. We exist to empower the voices of women who live their lives #BloomingAlive through Podcast Community. Now, here is your host. Blooming Inspired Podcast equipping and empowering the voices of women who live their lives Blooming Alive. Introduction Good Morning! This is Michelle Bentham, host of Blooming Inspired Podcast. I want to take a moment to encourage you. I don’t know if you’ve been in the thick of spiritual warfare lately, but around the lake here in Granbury it has been amped up. Last week my prayer group and I took the time to stand and pray with other prayer groups around our nation and in other countries. We have been praying together a few years and asking God to move in our personal lives, our families, our city, county, region, state and nation as well as throughout the entire world. As we did, things began to happen and even though we experienced resistance in the spiritual realms there was breakthrough. My friend, Deb DeArmand just released a new quick-read devotional packed with humor and practical wisdom called Bumper Sticker Be-Attitudes over at Amazon.com. And even though this sounds like some kind of shameless promotion, I wanted to share something she posted on Facebook: “It’s never too late to finish, and it’s always too early to quit.” This happens to be a chapter title in her book. As I think about this encouragement I’m drawn to a particular Scripture. Galatians 6:9 in The Passion Translation reads this way: “And don’t allow yourselves to be weary or disheartened in planting good seeds, for the season of reaping the wonderful harvest you’ve planted is coming!” Don’t give up! Yes, the battle in this season may be hard, but victory and breakthrough are on the other side. Just like the tiny seed that is birthed beneath the hard earth. It take a lot of stick to it and determination to breakthrough - but once you do there is light and life -- especially opportunities to grow in abundance and bear much fruit. So stay at it, friends. The other side of the story - the harvest is worth the price you pay. And be sure to pick up Deb’s book over at Amazon.com and leave a review once you’ve read it. You can click the link in this post for more information about her book! Now--- For our final reading in Psalm 119 in “The Revival Series.” I have to say I am grateful to be at the end of this journey with you today. WHY? You may be asking. Well, remember at the beginning way back in May - 28 Episodes ago, I began reading in Psalm 119:1… I told you that I felt God has encouraged me to read Psalm 119 back in 2014 but each time I tried I couldn’t get past the first 20 verses? Yes. Well, that struggle WAS VERY REAL. Amen? I didn’t see myself as the person who was happy to keep God’s commands, and His Word. Not that I ddin’t try to be obedient, and remain in His word daily. Not that at all… But, because I didn’t see myself as a person of integrity. I know. This may be news to you… But, friends. I”ve lived most of my life with an impoverished spirit hanging on me like an old coat. Anytime success or a move in God’s direction got me excited, there the enemy would be trying to discourage me by reminding me of not only the horrible past I had lived, but also the struggle with strongholds and temptation to sin I face daily. I believed deep in my heart I’d never change completely until I got to Heaven and saw Jesus. In truth, I was trying to change myself not trusting God to do it… So in 2016 when in prayer I felt the Holy Spirit nudge me and ask me why I had not read Psalm 119 as the Lord had put on my heart to do… I responded, “Because I cannot find myself in it.” Then is when I felt like Jesus pulled my face up in His hands and said, “Beloved, you aren’t supposed to read Scripture to find yourself… Your supposed to read Scripture to find Me.” That’s a life-changing truth right there, my friends. A life changing truth. Maybe you need to hear that for yourself today. God’s Word - the fullest expression of Himself to us - is Jesus. The primary way He reveals Himself to us in this season is through the Scriptures, but Holy Spirit is the great Revelator. He guides us into all truth. And He will teach us to hear and respond to the Shepherd’s voice if we will only give ourselves to the process. Surrender is a position of obedience and victory in God’s Kingdom. Let’s surrender one more time to read our last 8 verses of Psalm 119. This week we are going to be reading from Psalm 119:169-176 in the Passion Translation - so grab your favorite Bible translation to read from and let’s get ready to read by reviewing what we covered last time. Review In our last episode, we read verses 161-168 as we continued to discover keys to revival. As we read, we considered the question: “What Do I Have My Heart Set On?" And as we walked through each verse we picked up another Revival Key that comes from remaining devoted to God’s Word. That key is a longing and a hunger for more of Him through His Word. That desire to go deep into God’s Word leads us to discover both His love and His power in a way that compels us to change and live only for Him. As we read through verses 169-176 today, I want you to ask yourself, “Who or What am I following after?” As our hearts search our soul for the answer, we will look at the Key of Worship as our life’s pursuit This Week’s Reading So Now Let’s Pray, Father God, I ask that you would give each person within the sound of my voice an encounter with You, Your Son and the Holy Spirit this morning as we read Your words of life together. Impart the truth of who You are to our hearts, minds, souls and bodies today - we ask for Holy Spirit revelation to open our eyes to the way You see, open our ears to hear Your majestic voice, and open our hearts to know Your heart in intimacy and truth. I thank you that when we believe in Christ, we are hidden in Him and His blessings. Let our heart’s rend themselves before you today in a sacrifice of praise as we give our lives to worship you - the only one who is worthy of all praise! Remind us of these truths as we read today and make them real for us! I ask these things in Jesus’ Holy Name, AMEN. The heading for today’s reading is, “I Want To Follow You” Verse 169: Lord, listen to my prayer. It’s like a sacrifice I bring to you; I must have more revelation of your word! Do you hear that? Our prayers and longing for God are a sacrifice that praises and glorifies Him as God. It keeps us dependent upon the Holy Spirit’s revelation as we seek to know Him through His Word. My heart is tender to the glory of God in this hour. My morning has been full of distractions - people requesting time with me for coaching, sharing and declaring His truth in our lives. I’ve also been praying with my prayer sisters and receiving revelation for a loved one as I’ve reviewed what God has taught us through the last six months of our lives together. And then, the posts about the horrible massacre of the families from LeBaron, Mexico. I’ve seen the reports, and I personally know family members here in the states who broke away from their lifestyle. But, if in our religious piety as Christians we can have no compassion for people who were murdered for the simple fact that they existed. If we cannot pray for the people of Mexico in this hour who are tormented, tortured and terrorized by the drug-lords and cartels. Then who is the God we are serving? I don’t have to agree with their lifestyle to grieve for their loss. I don’t have to know them to love them from His perspective. Jesus died on the cross for both those murdered in Mexico yesterday and for the drug-lords and cartel members, and the corrupt government who has allowed this to go on unabated for decades. God’s arm is not too short to save, but His people seem to have hardened hearts when it comes to their desire for justice. May His mercy endure and His goodness be made known to those who grieve today. May He put His protective hand on the citizens of Mexico in this hour and all who make their home there. May His loving-kindness and tender mercy bring repentance and deliverance for both the people and the oppressors and may those who pray for peace and safety find it in Him today. In Jesus’ name, amen. Verse 170: Take my words to heart when I ask you, Lord; rescue me, just like you promised! Micah 6:8 commends us that God has shown us how to live our lives in surrender to Him. My memory reflects it this way, “Do justice (in our own hearts), love mercy (toward other people) and walk in humility with oug God.” So often, our heart cry to God is for mercy for ourselves, we do love mercy for ourselves. And we also cry out for justice toward those we deem wrong, hurtful or criminal. And in so doing, I believe we grieve the heart of God as He was so willing to lay His life down for us to be free, but we cannot cross that line of sacrifice and give up our own rights and prideful judgments to minister His love and mercy to those who offend us the most. It’s no wonder we find Him absent in the midst of tragedy when our hearts will not bend to sacrifice for Him in our praise. Verse 171: I offer you my joyous praise for all that you’ve taught me. When the worship music plays at church, when the circumstances are overwhelming your heart, when people are hurting you and fear consumes you - Where Do You Find Your Heart Focused? The only way to live in joyous praise for all He has taught you is to make every moment of your life an act of worship. If the music at church, the actions of others, the circumstances or pain of your life and fear are consuming your focus - if you aren’t focused on who God is, what He has promised you and the way He has delivered you over and over again - then you will not be able to offer Him your joyous praise. Joy is a gift from God - happiness, is fleeting and temporary, but the state of being the blessed of God defies all circumstances determined only by the condition of our heart before Him. Will we bow and bend to His will or be driven by the wanton fear that compels us to forsake His perfect love? Verse 172:Your wonderful words will become my song of worship, for everything you’ve commanded is perfect and true. My favorite worship song right now might surprise you… It’s Kanye West’s title song from the album “Jesus is King.” This song is the exclamation point on a beautiful, resounding chorus of words that tells the story of one who was lost and became found by God. Of The Son who is worthy of celebrating, and the way a surrendered life to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords brings life to even those that society calls crazy, vain and unworthy. I know Scripture, and the words of worship I hear on the lips of Kanye West are the highest praise for a worthy King. Verse 173: Place your hands of strength and favor upon me, for I’ve made my choice to follow your ways. When God’s strength comes to you, His favor rests upon you - the key is to choose. God has given us the ability to choose who and what we worship and pursue in life. When we make Him our life’s pursuit, His strength empowers us and His favor carries us into places that would never be open to us without Him. The most obvious gates that open to us, the gates of Heaven and living in His eternal presence beyond our life on earth. And that favor alone is worth everything - He is worthy of surrender, worship and the highest praise. Verse 174: I wait for your deliverance, O Lord, for your words thrill me like nothing else! A heart focused on the promises of God, having experienced His life-giving presence and the fulfillment of His promises will wait patiently for His deliverance and timing as we remain steadfast in our worship of Him. Verse 175: Invigorate my life so that I can praise you even more, and may your truth be my strength! A heart bent on worshipping God seeks revival for one purpose - To praise God even more. To seek truth at all costs. To be strengthened and enraptured by the joy of the Lord which is our strength. Verse 176: I’ll never forget what you’ve taught me, Lord, but when I wander off and lose my way, come after me, for I am your beloved! Knowing God shouldn’t just change the way we think or act, it should change the way we worship. We will rest in His unfailing love when we remember that the final Key to Revival is a life surrendered in daily worship to the most high and majestic God of the Universe who is our only source of life, hope and redemption.

This causes us to hunger and thirst for His righteousness. A hunger and thirst that is most fulfilled when we give ourselves wholeheartedly to His Word.

Psalm 119:169-176 The Passion Translation (TPT) I Want to Follow You 169 Lord, listen to my prayer. It’s like a sacrifice I bring to you; I must have more revelation of your word! 170 Take my words to heart when I ask you, Lord; rescue me, just like you promised! 171 I offer you my joyous praise for all that you’ve taught me. 172 Your wonderful words will become my song of worship, for everything you’ve commanded is perfect and true. 173 Place your hands of strength and favor upon me, for I’ve made my choice to follow your ways. 174 I wait for your deliverance, O Lord, for your words thrill me like nothing else! 175 Invigorate my life so that I can praise you even more, and may your truth be my strength! 176 I’ll never forget what you’ve taught me, Lord, but when I wander off and lose my way, come after me, for I am your beloved!

The Lord’s Will Be Done (Acts 21:1-40) The post The Lord's Will Be Done first appeared on The Oasis.
Thank you for joining us for part two of our show about Will Be Done – the tool that helps people create wills. It might seem like a tricky subject, or a space that financial institutions don’t see a reason to get into with members, but really, it is a perfect fit. If you protect a member’s financial assets their whole lives, why wouldn’t you also help them protect what happens once they’re gone? Don’t just take it from me though…in this episode we hear from two people who have been involved at various stages of the creation of this tool, two people for different but equally personal reasons see the life-changing impact something like this can have on those left behind when loved ones are lost. First we have Michael Spink of Local Government Federal Credit union who was originally part of the team that came up with the idea, so this is his brainchild in a way, but he’s sharing how such a tool could have made a difference in his life had he had it sooner. And then we chat with Steve Fukumoto from Schools First Federal credit union who is currently part of the team getting this tool to market and motivated very personally to see it become broadly available across the nation through credit unions.
Enjoy Pastor Stephen and Pam Marshall as they teach on setting your mind on God to lead you toward your breakthrough!Breakthrough Word Keys For 2018 1. Let This Mind Be In You, And Enjoy Kingdom BreakthroughI am transformed by the renewing of my mind, proving what is that good, acceptable, and perfect will of God. (According to Romans 12:2)I have, and possess, the mind of Christ. (According to 1 Corinthians 2:16)I set my mind on things above, not on things on the earth. (According to Colossians 3:2)I let this mind, which is in Christ Jesus, abide in me. (According to Philippians 2:5)2. The King's Context Come, The King's Will Be DoneI seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things are added to me. (According to Matthew 6:33)Father God, You have rescued me and drawn me to Yourself from the dominion of darkness, and have transferred me to the kingdom of Your beloved Son—King Jesus! (According to Colossians 1:13)I am in Christ and in His anointing. Therefore, I am a new creation; old things have passed away; and all things have become new. (According to 2 Corinthians 5:17)I choose everyday to walk in the light and to have fellowship with God's children. (According to 1 John 1:7) I imitate God as His child by being kind, tender hearted and forgiving. Yes, I choose to walk in love! (According to Ephesians 4:32 – 5:1,2)#3. Worship Rewards Push Open Big DoorsGod has never called me to seek Him for nothing, but He has called me to a just reward. (According to Isaiah 45:19)I choose to be a true worshipper of Father God, worshipping Him in spirit and in truth… with my heart and mind… believing and receiving. (According to John 4:23)Without faith it's impossible to please God. Therefore, I believe that He is, AND that He rewards me when I seek Him—when I worship Him. (According to Hebrews 11:6)
"The good news of the Kingdom isn't just what HAS BEEN DONE for you but what WILL BE DONE through you...This is good news!
