The power of patience is a working power. When faith has a tendency to waver, it is patience that comes to faith's aid to make it stand. The power of patience is necessary to undergird faith. Almost everywhere you find faith mentioned in the Bible, you also find patience. Faith and patience are the power twins. Together they will produce every time. Patience without faith has no power to call into reality the thing desired. Faith is the substance of things we hope for. Patience without faith has no substance. On the other hand, faith without patience many times will fail to stand firm on the evidence of the Word that gives deed to things not seen. Jesus told Peter that he had prayed for him that his faith fail not. Without the power of patience at work, we will allow sensory knowledge - the things we see - to overwhelm our faith. Patience undergirds faith and gives it endurance to persevere until the answer comes. Faith is a powerful force. It always works. It is not that our faith is weak and needs streng

The internet defines brain washing as mind control, thought control, and thought reform. Usually this is in the context of someone doing this to you, but the Bible teaches that this is something we must do to ourselves through the Word of God in order to experience real life change. Our minds must be renewed (washed) from old patterns of thinking that are contrary to God's Word, if we are ever going to enter into God's highest and best for our lives. In this series of sermons, we will learn how to do that.

Jesus said in Matthew 6:33 (AMPC) that when we seek after God's way of doing things and His way of being right, then all of the things of this earth that we could need would be added to our lives. It is important that we not only learn faith and how to believe God, but we should also learn His ways, His character, and His thoughts so that we can live like Him in every area of our lives. When we know His ways and His character, living by faith becomes very easy. The series of lessons is from our ZOOM Bible Study on Wednesday Evenings.

Matthew 11:28-30 | AMPC (28) Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened, and I will cause you to rest. [I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls.] (29)  Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am gentle (meek) and humble (lowly) in heart, and you will find rest (relief and ease and refreshment and recreation and blessed quiet) for your souls. [Jer 6:16] (30) For My yoke is wholesome (useful, good--not harsh, hard, sharp, or pressing, but comfortable, gracious, and pleasant), and My burden is light and easy to be borne.  If you could really see into the souls of people, you would see that type of baggage being carried around even by people that don’t realize they are carrying any baggage. Based on what Jesus said in the above verses, it clearly is not His will that we carry a bunch of baggage around in life. He wants to set us free from the baggage and give us rest and refreshing for our souls. In this series, we are talking about the process of getting rid of this baggage so

The Apostle John wrote in John 21:25, "And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen." If this verse is true, and it is, then we should study the miracles that we do have record of in the four Gospels because the same Jesus Who performed those miracles then is very much alive and the same today and is willing to work miracles today!

God is always endeavoring to move in our lives to help us to make the right decisions that will allow His blessing and His life to be our life experience. Contrary to that, the enemy of our souls is also trying to move in our lives to shape our decision-making process in order to thwart the plan of God from coming to pass in our lives. No one in their right mind is going to make a conscious decision for death in any of its forms and desire to experience that in their lives. Deception is not just ONE of the ways that the enemy can bring the effects of the curse into your life. it is the ONLY way. If Satan cannot deceive you, he cannot defeat you.
