"The Delivering Power of God" -Can you think of anything that is more powerful than the God of the Bible? God created the heavens, the earth, and filled them with everything that He desired. God plundered Egypt and set His holy people free from slavery. God drove out the nations that were mightier and more powerful than Israel as they possessed their land of promise. God worked through Jesus to strip Satan, demons, principalities, and powers of their rule over the souls of man. God has made sinners to become new creatures in Christ. He has given His children in Christ authority over the powers of Satan and demons. Yet, there's one thing that God can't overcome.

(Re-air) "How to Respond to Hard Seasons" -This word may help every Christian alive today. It is during the hard seasons of life that Christians will be required to live by their faith in God. However, when we are made to endure lengthy seasons of hard trials, this can also cause us to grow weary in our faith. Satan wars against believers with the hope of wearing us down. It is in those times of weakness that if we will turn to the Lord with our whole heart, God will empower us to live in victory over the Devil. But there's more to the story!

"The God of Israel" -After the fall of Adam, man began to forget their God and no longer considered Him as their Lord. In Genesis 6, God saw the heart of the people of the earth had grow evil and every thought was evil only. Even though God was also the Lord of all, people didn't know Him as Lord. The inhabitants of the earth had given themselves over to paganism and idolatry. Therefore, God introduced His plan to restore all nations to Himself when He called Abram out of his father's land to follow Him. Through God's relationship with His people, the other nations of the world came to know God as the God of Israel. There's more to this story!

"Access Granted" -When God delivered His people from the land of bondage, it was His intention to give them spiritual rest. However, the Jews refused to honor God or His Word. So, He refused to give them His rest. When believers come to Jesus, we have to do more than simply believe. Otherwise, we won't be allowed to enter the kingdom of God or inherit His promises. Christians must realize that it's not enough to stand at the door and knock. At some point, we have to be willing to enter in through it. Access has been granted but how many will take God at His Word and enter?

"The Power of One" -The Word declares that with God all things are possible. All Christians need to obey God is to utilize our faith and God will do the work so that His purpose is done through us. However, Christians can struggle with so many issues in our lives that erode at our confidence that can cause us to be afraid to step out in faith. It's been stated that "You and God make a majority." Has God placed things in your heart that makes you shutter to even think about doing them? God won't allow us to allow fear to stop us from obeying Him. This is why God has given to every person the measure of faith and requires us to use our faith to obey Him.

"Access Denied" -Jesus warns us in Luke 11 : 35, "Be careful, then, that the light within you is not darkness." It's very possible to believe something to be true when it is a lie. All that needs to happen to believe a lie as the truth is to be convinced that it is the truth. Notice that Jesus teaches that the light that is in some believers is not light at all but they will believe it to be light, but they will still be in darkness. To know the truth of God, we have do more than simply believe it. God requires us to obey the truth even when we don't understand what He instructing us to do. Therefore, when we obey God, even though we don't understand Him or His instructions, we are placing our faith in God and not in ourselves. Once truth is revealed to us, God's light will shine in our hearts and we will have spiritual understanding and know the truth.

"Where is the Church?" -Just as spiritual things have come into existence through the faith and obedience of God fearing believers, they can also cease existing. America is a nation. What America has been since its inception came about because God-fearing people loved and appreciated what God had allowed them to have. In recent decades, we have watched the America that once was, is no more. What needs to be asked and answered is, "Where is the Church?" And where has it been in recent decades?

"Who has the Power to Defeat God?" -Why does God allow evil people to become rulers over nations and people? Why does God allow horrific storms to destroy lives and property? Has there ever been an evil leader or destructive storm that has been able to withstand God or defeat Him? If God is so great and powerful, why don't humans and Christians fear Him as we should?

"The Church is the Voice of Hope" -Imagine how wicked and violent the world would be if God's Word and the Church weren't in existence. Now, imagine how wicked and violent the world would become if the Church did not stand for the truth and fight for justice. Christians are called to be Salt and Light in a spiritually dark and corrupt world. However, if we refuse to allow the Lord's truth and love to shine through us, we will create a spiritual vacuum in the earth that would be filled with lawlessness and corruption. The Church is the voice of hope for the world. Every Christian that desires to be Salt and Light needs to hear this word from God.

"Transformed and Empowered by Love" -What would motivate God, who needs no one or anything, to create humans? Did God create humans because He needed us? The Bible declares that God is love. Therefore, He created humans so that He could demonstrate His love for us. There is a vast difference between giving someone your love and showing them that you love them. After God created man, male and female, He placed them in the Garden of Eden and they benefited from His love, However, when man sinned, God chose to show His love for us as sinners by sending His Son to suffer and die for sinners. God doesn't love us because we're good or bad. God loves us because that is who He is. LOVE!

"Develop Unwavering Faith" -As the Church, we can't continue to address the issues that we have had to face with the same responses. It's time for true change to take place in the body of Christ. There's nothing new under the sun. Therefore, what needs to change has needed to be dealt with and overcome for generations. However, God is looking for an overcoming generation to rise up like the generation that Joshua led into the Promised Land. If you're tired of making repetitious laps in the wilderness, you are invited to hear this word from God.

"Living Under an Open Heaven" -In this word from God, you will learn how to live under an open heaven. Our faith attracts the favor of God. God's favor empowers us to receive increase in our lives. If we continue to walk obediently by faith and to live sacrificially, God will also raise us up for His glory.

"The Word of God" -To determine the level of threat someone or something is to their enemies look at the level of warfare against them. There is nothing in God's creation that is more hated and warred against than God's Word which is the Truth. From the beginning, when God created man in His image and likeness, Satan has warred against God's Word to keep it out of the hearts of people. When Satan used the serpent to tempt Eve, he attacked God's commands (Truth). When you hear a word in season, you will be spiritually attacked because Satan is after the Word that you have received by faith. Do Christians take the Word of God, which is the Truth of God as seriously as Satan and those who oppose it do?

(Re-air) "Launching Out into the Deep" -There is so much more to being a Christian than going to church. Church has its place because we all must become disciples of Christ and be taught the truth. Church is also the place where Christians are taught how to be witnesses of Jesus to the lost. The main purpose of the Church is fulfilling the Great Commission. As the Church, you and I have been sent into the world to share our testimony with those who do not know Jesus as the Son of God, so that they can have an opportunity to be born again. There is nothing as fulfilling as leading someone to salvation in Christ. Let's go out into the deep for a great catch!
