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.

America just celebrated it's freedom that was bought with blood, sweat, tears and a pure miracle of God. As believers we cannot deny that God has blessed this country and we should want His hand of blessing to continue to remain on it. Every blessing comes with it's own set of responsibilities, these responsibilities aren't means for us to earn our blessings, but it is a necessity in order to keep the freedom that brings the blessings of God. In this message we go back to the principles given by God to His people that keep them in the state of freedom and ready for the promises of God to unfold. Are you ready to take up the responsibilities of the free? Are you ready for God to show you the principles of freedom? Stay tuned. Your blessing is on it's way!

Principles are needed and are required in every area of our lives. Principles are standards that are placed on us by an authority or by our own personal convictions. There are times when the authority and personal convictions can collide and oppose each other, it is in these times when Christians stand out, we don't bow down and we won't submit to any authority that opposes our convictions. But what do you do when your convictions have kept you from submitting to God? What do you do when your worship, your confidence and your victory has become a method instead of a miracle? Today God's Word strips us off our act and calls us to drop the appearance, are you ready to get lighter, freer and real? Proverbs 21 is where we are going to be, get ready!

Repentance is great! When you change your life around it is like you have entered a new dimension, with time, energy and focus on your hands. While changing for the better is good, it is crucial for us to examine the motives behind the change. Running after change for the wrong reasons can set us back, when the object of our inspiration lets us down. Religion, relationships, culture, and values have all been great reasons for us to make a change in our lives, but the change that Jesus calls us to is backed up with His Righteousness, Power and Purpose, this change is a positive change that points us towards purpose, everything else is a false positive. Stay tuned as we tear down the idols of false positives which are nothing but failures waiting to be birthed.

The greatest threat to Christian living is the constant struggle between the flesh and The Spirit. Temptations are sure to come, but what do we do when those temptations come? How do we overcome them? Last week we were challenged to divorce Satan, and this week we are taking it a step further and making a commitment to not resuscitate sin. Are you ready to breathe in freedom? Get your bibles to Proverbs 21, God's Word is coming your way!

When you hear the words "I DO" you immediately think of a wedding and the vows that are exchanged. This is a promise made for a lifetime, a commitment that is made in joy, faith and in eager expectation of blessings to follow. But what do you do when you have walked down the aisle with a person who has lied to you, fooled you and has enslaved you? This is not a new or unheard scenario in our world, but the marriage relationship I want to focus our attention on is the one many have made with a far worse enemy - Satan! Is it possible that you claim to have a relationship with Jesus but are sleeping with the devil? Holding on to addictions, worldly values, and numbing your insecurities instead of bringing it to Jesus? Today Jesus not only approves your divorce of Satan, but Jesus also empowers you to get out of this abusive relationship and find your rest and peace in Him. Are you ready to sign your divorce papers and get rid of the enemy of your soul? Stay tuned, God's Word is coming your way!
