In this episode we look at the importance of understanding our spiritual warfare against the enemy. We need to remember that he’s always attempting to both gain a foothold in our lives and then establish a stronghold. We look at what these strongholds actually are, how he operates through them and what we need to do as soldiers in the army of the Lord to pull them down once and for all! We don’t have to live with strongholds we can cast them down and walk in victory and obedience to God!

In this episode, we look at the danger of unbelief. We look at some important warnings that we find in Hebrews about the danger of consciously and deliberately sinning after knowing the truth and why that warning is given to us. We see how it relates to our salvation and we ask whether we can lose our salvation or not. We look at the difference between the physical and invisible Church. We look at the difference between nominal and true Christians and see how all of these different things are covered in these warnings. We also see how we can take heed to them and learn from them, while also understanding who we are in Christ and understanding the confidence and assurance we have in Him and in His free gift of eternal life!

In this episode we look at Eleazar, one of David’s mighty men. We look at the heroic account of what he did when Israel was fleeing, under attack from the Philistines. We see how he stood his ground and fought them alone, saving Israel in the process and we see the significance of his sword that he refused to let go of even when he grew weary. We can learn a lot from him for our calling, our spiritual warfare, and our use and love for the sword of the Spirit! Let’s rise up and be the Eleazar of our generation!

In this episode we look at the importance of the miracle of salvation and how there’s two aspects of it, God working in us and us working out of our salvation. We look at what it truly means to work out our salvation and how it should affect our outward behavior. We look at the necessity of surrendering every part of our lives to Jesus and the need to avoid murmurings and disputing in order to follow God’s command to be blameless and harmless as we seek and strive to shine as the stars for God!

In this episode we look at God’s command to His people to ask, seek and knock. We look at why He tells us to do so in this order and how we can apply this command in our prayer life. We look at each individual part to see what they each truly mean in our daily lives and how this formula for praying successful prayers is necessary for us to understand to take our prayer life to the next level, so we can both have a greater understanding of God’s Word and greater effectiveness in advancing God’s Kingdom!

In this episode we look at the prophecy of plowshares and pruning hooks and see how the enemy took these tools that God gave man to make them into things that divide and pit us against each other, even turning us into swords and spears but then we see how God, in His goodness and graciousness, reverses that prophesy and turns us into productive, creative people with great tools that can change the world and greatly advance the Kingdom of God.

In this episode we go in depth looking at the account of Jacob’s deception of his father Isaac and we look at a parallel passage hiding in an unsuspecting place. Although reading in English we can easily miss it, in Hebrew we look at the many connections that exist between Jacob’s deception and the Ten Commandments and see what this connection and his deception can teach us today!

In this episode we look at what the Bible tells us about blessings and being blessed. We look at how we’re not just called to have and enjoy these blessings but go further and become a source of blessings for the people around us. People around us should be blessed simply because they’re around us!

In this episode we look at how there’s an abundance of teachers in the Church today but also a severe lack of spiritual fathers. This isn’t unique to our own time, Paul warned the early Church of the same issue. We look at what separates teachers from fathers and see why it’s so important and necessary that we ask God to raise up spiritual fathers in our lives and in the Church and thank Him for the ones we already have in our lives!

In this episode, we look at the vision that Obadiah had concerning Edom. It's easy to pass right by Obahdiah because it's such a short book but it's packed with amazing verses that both shed light on the history of God's people and on our lives today. We trace the history of Edom back to see what led up to them appearing in Obadiah's vision, we see what set the course that they'd later walk and then we find how they were acting in the vision, how they willingly and brazenly came against God's people and went out of their way to oppose them. Then we trace them forward to see how their history progressed. We look at how the enemy influenced them and how that same pride that they indulged in, plagues many people today. We need to avoid the pitfalls that Edom fell into and instead humble ourselves before the Lord, trusting God to go before us and give us the victory!

In this episode we look at the account of Paul getting bit by the poisonous serpent while shipwrecked on the island of Melita. We look at how it happened and what the initial reaction of the natives were. We see how we see the same reaction from people in the world today. We then see how Paul's survival and his power over the serpent shows us the power that we have over the enemy and his attacks. It shows us the power of the Gospel to overcome all opposition in this world. We then look more closely at just what our power over the serpent means for us today and how God preserved Paul that day for a reason. He was going to go on and accomplish important and amazing things for the Kingdom and God is preserving us today for the great things He has ahead for us!

In this episode we look at the very first mention of love in the Bible and we see how that foundation set the tone for how love would be understood throughout scripture. We see the love of God on full display on Calvary and we see how God’s love influences our lives. We also look at His command for us to live in love and the even more difficult command to love our enemies. As we live in love we point the world around us to the God we serve, the God who is love!

In this episode we look at the prayer of Jabez buried deep within a long genaeology and see why it matters for us today. We look at the context in which he prayed and in which people would be reading his prayer. We also look at how it points us to God’s success principle. We then look at the prayer itself and go through the four elements of it. We see how he desired to be blessed, how he desired God to enlarge his coast, how he wanted God’s hand to be upon him and how he desired God to keep him from evil. If God did that for Jabez, He can and will do the same for us today! We’re called to be the Jabez of our generation!

In this episode we look at how the Lord often chooses to operate in a sudden fashion. We look at why He chooses to do this and what exactly it looks like throughout scripture. We also look at what exactly leads up to these incredible moments and what sets the stage and lays the ground work for these sudden works of the Lord to spring forth and manifest in the natural. We then look at how we can experience these same sudden, miraculous, incredible moves of God, where He demonstrates His power, His love and His strength in new and amazing ways, in our lives today. We look at what exactly we need to do to be able to receive from Him and be in the right state of mind and right posture of heart to enjoy what God has prepared for us as His people. He's still the God of suddenly and He can suddenly move in your life today!

In this episode we look at how we're told that the government shall be upon the Lord's shoulders. We look at what exactly His government looks like. We see how it's constructed, what and who constitutes it and how it operates. We also look at why it's upon His shoulders specifically and what significance that has in the overall plan of God all throughout scripture. We look at how He places us upon His shoulder and carries us and how we have an important, central role to play inside His government. We're called and chosen to govern under the authority of God as He governs us!
