He has the FINAL say on your life and it’s outcome! Not your circumstances, not your past or what others believe about you.
Hearts are turning back to Him across this nation. The media is not our source of truth. Why do we give the devil more of a platform than God? The power of life and death is in the tongue!
Learn to speak His word and His truth! Knowing and experiencing Him and His Kingdom now is truth.
You can live set free from the bondage of sin! God isn’t looking for someone whose done it all right. He uses those that are submitted to His will and whose hearts are set on Him.
Are you willing to give up everything for Him?
Your plans, reputation, relationships, career, hobbies, finances, pride, unforgiveness, gossip, slander, bitterness, jealousy, lust, glutton, religious mindsets…etc?
Are you ready to seek Him with ALL you have?
Here is what His word says…
Matthew 16:24-28
Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul? For the Son of Man is going to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay each person according to what he has done. Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”
Matthew 22:34-40
But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.
***There are more commandments than these!
Yes, it requires obedience to HIS commandments.
To inherit the promises of God we must first submit and obey Him!
You can’t KNOW Him only by listening to what others say about Him. It comes through the power of the Holy Spirit to interpret the Word and act accordingly through talking to Him and listening to His response. It’s walking with Him daily allowing Him to renew your mind and transform your heart.

His disciples bear fruit. That’s the evidence.
Matthew 7:12-23
“So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.
“Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easya that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.
A Tree and Its Fruit
“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.
I Never Knew You
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’
***We can do EVERYTHING right and still not know HIM.
Good deeds do not erase the consequences and penalty of sin.
Going to church and serving every Sunday does not save us.
Living a reputable life does not give you the keys to heaven.
A RELATIONSHIP with Jesus is the only way. There is no other way. There are not multiple paths to know and understand Him.
John 14:6
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
He LOVES you and desires a relationship with you.
Jeremiah 31:2-4
Thus says the LORD:
“The people who survived the sword
found grace in the wilderness;
when Israel sought for rest,
the LORD appeared to him from far away.
I have loved you with an everlasting love;
therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you.
Again I will build you, and you shall be built,
HIS promises and faithfulness to His people are ongoing!
His love is unconditional and everlasting to all generations!
We aren’t waiting on Him to send revival!
He’s waiting on us to BE revival!
I pray that we truly become a church without walls that demonstrates the love and power of God EVERYDAY!
