Speak the Word“So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”‭‭Romans‬ ‭10:17‬ ‭NKJV‬‬Today, I just wanted to take a moment and share a powerful gift we have at our disposal, our words. :) Words hold immense power! They have the power to build up and tear down, to bring life and bring death!“Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it and indulge it will eat its fruit and bear the consequences of their words.”‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭18:21‬ ‭AMP‬‬*Remember these can be positive or negative consequences ;) See how James describes the tongue:“Now if we put bits into the horses' mouths to make them obey us, we guide their whole body as well. And look at the ships. Even though they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are still directed by a very small rudder wherever the impulse of the helmsman determines. In the same sense, the tongue is a small part of the body, and yet it boasts of great things. See [by comparison] how great a forest is set on fire by a small spark!”‭‭James‬ ‭3:3-5‬ ‭AMP‬‬Listen, the words that we speak are extremely important and the more I mature in the Lord, the more I have come to realize that. :) As a believer, we have been made like Jesus! That's awesome news! Be encouraged today, you have the authority to speak life into those around you!You have the opportunity to share the Good News, to speak light into the darkness! Once again, let's look back on the Genesis account of creation and see how God handles the darkness, He didn't think the darkness away, nor did He bother describing the darkness, He simply said, “Let there be light!” Did you know that you and I have the same opportunity? We can look out at the crazy world we live in and follow the crowd and use our words to tear down others, make gifs meant to highlight the darkness, use our words to simply describe the things we see, OR we can be like God and say, “Let there be light!”“Use your words to design your life, not to describe your life.” - Pastor Jim FreaseIt takes very little effort to describe the darkness around us, but it takes immense courage to swim upstream, to go against the grain and use our words to speak life, to build others up, to speak and believe the Word of God when it appears that no one else does! The easiest way to start this awesome habit is at home: the Bible says faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word...One of the best ways to begin exercising our faith is by speaking the Word at home! Instead of simply reading your Bible, begin to speak your Bible! :)In this manner, you will be speaking the Word out of your mouth, it goes forth and comes into your ears, works its way into your heart and mind, and thus nestles its way into every core of your being! If we will practice this one simple thing over and over, we will fill ourselves with the Word, readying ourselves!You will be surprised how over time, you will begin quoting scriptures during your everyday activities. When we are full of the Word, and life bumps us, the Word spills out! Make up your mind today to be a speaker of the Word and not a bearer of bad news :) It will take some time, but over time, you will be a force to be reckoned with and the gates of Hell will not be able to prevail against you because of the Word that is in you! In Christ,Joshua Scott Zeitz 

So, what’s on your “bucket list”? You know, what do you want to do before you die – before you “kick the bucket,” as they say? A Google search turned up lots of ideas of what to put on a personal bucket list – everything from learning a new language to skydiving. But, instead of a Google search, what if we did a “God” search for what he would put on our bucket list? How about this entry from God’s Word? “So even to old age and gray hairs, O God, do not forsake me, until I proclaim your might to another generation” (Psalm 71:18)?

Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation. 1 Peter 2:2 Questions to answer: 1. Have I been unloving lately towards someone in my life and need God’s help to put it away? 2. Do I need God’s help for more hunger and discipline to meet with him in his Word? So that I crave it. 3. Do I need to make it more of a point to be built up in spiritual community? Gathering regularly with other believers. 4. Do I need to bask in the mercy God has shown me, so that I more joyfully and naturally proclaim him in my everyday life? 5. What can I do to be a part of our church living good lives in the way we serve this community?

2 Corinthians 10:5 – Casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. The Apostle Paul in writing this letter to the church at Corinth, was speaking about spiritual warfare that we all deal with… He encourages us to live in obedience to Christ… Reminding us that we don’t walk according to the flesh, we do not war with the flesh… The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, they are not earthly weapons, but they are might in God for pulling down of strongholds… to cast down arguments, thoughts, and high things that would make themselves appear more powerful than what we know to be truth of the Word of God! We must bring every thought, every idea captive when they tell us things that don’t line up with God’s Word… So that we might stand in His Truth and become an Unexpected Warrior! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/SoulDivision67/support

Those who know Jesus have their values, vision & views changed by Jesus. The Apostle Paul is a great example of a person who had become transformed by coming to know Jesus & yet he wanted to know Jesus more. He counted everything in this life worthless compared to knowing Jesus.He wrote" Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord." Philippians 3:8 Knowing Jesus is worth more than anything this world has to offer. Knowing Jesus was the passion & pursuit of the Apostle Paul. He counted all of his accomplishments as rubbish compared to knowing Jesus. Once his eyes were opened to the glorious worth of Jesus his value system changed. His pursuit was no longer directed at becoming the most religious guy around. He no longer put confidence in this flesh , trusting in his own righteousness or seeking the glory of what he could accomplish in his own strength (Phil. 3:3) . Jesus became the one he sought to glorify, rejoice in, trust in and aim to know. Living a life to know & glorify Jesus was worth it for the Apostle Paul. He became a true worshipper of the One True God and his former way of trying to worship God in his flesh was exchanged for worshipping in & by the Holy Spirit (Phil. 3:3). Our Vision Our vision at City Church Garland is to Know Jesus, Love People and Impact Your World. We too have been changed by the powerful gospel of Jesus Christ and our value of knowing Jesus surpasses all other things this world has to offer. Knowing & loving Jesus is priority for us and we will commit our time and energy to this pursuit. He is worth it & it’s our joy know Jesus. Knowing Jesus is good for us, it’s good for our families, it’s good for our neighborhood, it’s good for our city. When we know Jesus and continue to grow in our knowledge of him the beautiful and pleasant fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control is displayed and experienced by those around us (Galatians 5:22-23). Who doesn't want that? In the Word So how can we get to know Jesus better? Get in His word. It is essential that we come before God daily spending time reading and reflecting on what God has spoken to us about who He is. The Scripture contains the revelation of God. So if we desire and pray for God to reveal himself to us we must behold God in the Scriptures. Specifically we should look at who is Jesus in the gospels. In Christ we see a perfect display of God manifested in human flesh. Jesus said if you’ve seen him then you’ve seen the Father (John 14:9). Also, I would recommend mediating on the names, titles & attributes of God throughout the bible. Titles like the God of all grace, the God of patience & the God of justice each reveal an aspect of who God is. Phrases like the Lord is gracious, compassionate, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love help us know who God is. Prayer & Worship In response to the revelation that we behold in Scripture we are to approach God in worship and prayer. Beholding & knowing the character of God is foundational & fuel for our worship. The more one beholds God and the beauty of who he is the more that person is able to respond properly worshipping in truth. It’s also foundational in prayer that one know that God is good & God is great. God is a good father and he delights to give good gifts to His children (Matt. 7:11). God is great and strong enough to answer our prayers. He is willing and He is able to answer our requests for deliverance, guidance, provision, wisdom, peace, etc... If we are to know Jesus better we must daily spend time in the word reflecting on who He is, what says & what he does. Saints, let’s make knowing Jesus the priority & passion of our lives. Then we will be able to make Him known and lead others into a genuine relationship with Him effectively. We must abide in Jesus & His word if we are to be fruitful and effective in the mission before us (John 15:4-8). Let’s invest our time in the Word. Let’s give ourselves to prayer. Let’s worship our Lord for who He is. What’s hindering you from knowing Jesus more? Does the use of your time, money and energy display that you value knowing Jesus more than other things?
