Pastor Sergio tells us about why we cannot remain ignorant in our walk, there are promises He paid for us on the Cross. The Lord brought us out of darkness to bring us into our promises! We've been saved because God has a purpose for our life. Jesus saved us on purpose for His purpose. We have to understand and learn about the unconditional and conditional promises God gives us in the Bible. We can't serve God with transactional thinking! Treating a conditional purpose as an unconditional purpose brings disappointment. We must contend and fight for the promises He has for us!

Pastor Jeremy Gonzalez from Bethel Church in Redding joins us and talks to us about how we have to be careful of the stories we tell ourselves! We are overcomers and conquerors, but we have to be careful of what we are telling ourselves we are in our identities. We cannot live in our past and continue to be stuck in our own fear! We can't continue to tell our story about identifying ourselves by our past traumas, failures and excuses. God wants us to live in the present and follow Him! We have to identify ourselves how He sees us, as His sons and daughters. We can't see ourselves as victims in hiding. We have to die to ourselves so we can live for the first time in our true identity in Christ!

Pastor Sergio continues this series talking with us about lessons learned from the church of Thyatira. The spirit of this text from Jesus is the Father trying to warn His children that if we don't repent and change our ways, this will happen. The Word is what we need! We cannot usurp authority in our lives. When there's lawlessness we will to to church without submission to God and live in immorality. God doesn't accept a mixture of a sinful lifestyle & grace! When we're on the throne of ourselves that's a problem. One reason we struggle in life is part of the judgements of the decisions we are making. We bring these things upon ourselves because of disobedience. We can come as we are into church, but Jesus won't let us let us stay as we are. All Jesus asks is that we serve Him with all our heart. We can't be adulterers with the world and serve him! We cannot have the blessing without the obedience.
