As believers we are activated by The Holy Spirit to be set into action for The Kingdom of God. Just like the early church we too have a responsibility as believers to serve in God's Kingdom, but in order to be functional, God prepares us, transforms us and liberates us and sets us up for action. In today's message, James challenges us in areas where we need the quickening of The Holy Spirit in order to walk out this new life we've been activated to live.

How many times have you found yourself in a place where you thought you knew for certain that it was God leading you, only to find out that you were deceived from the path of destiny to destruction? Please pause and ponder the path you are on right now, is it The Truth guiding you or the comfort of desires that are misaligned and has some superficial spirituality sprayed on it? Do we realize that the enemy can also use scriptures to get you off the path of victory? In a war that is filled with deceit how does a believer stay from straying? This is the assignment I have received from The Holy Spirit for us through The Word of God from James 1. I am coming in hot and heavy with a Word that will shine the light on the Deception's that are warring on your Destiny.

Over the years we have all asked the question, "WHY?" Hard times make us question everything, and the worst part of hard times is the disorienting, insecure doubt that we wrestle with. The enemy love to play havoc in these times and tempts you to question your faith and your belonging. Are you in a season that has gone on for far too long? The answer you need is in this message. The Upside of Being Down is a bold sermon from James 1:1-12, bold because it challenges the enemy's lies and puts you in the place of renewed faith. Get your bible, your notebook and a pen, you are going to need it. I'll see you on the upside.
