Combating the Spirit of Offense: "Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into Him who is the head, into Christ," Ephesians 4:15 ESV "Good sense makes one slow to anger, and it is his glory to overlook an offense." Proverbs 19:11 ESV Expose the Unfruitful Works of Darkness: "11 Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them. 12 For it is shameful even to speak of the things that they do in secret. 13 But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible, 14 for anything that becomes visible is light. Therefore it says, 'Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.” 15 Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the best use of the time, because the days are evil."

My dear friends, Jess Luttrell of Cosplay 4 Christ and Laura Farrar, author and artist, join us as guests to delve into the supernatural. "Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm." Ephesians 6:11-16 NASB Paul starts with the belt of truth, which holds our armor together. Our shield of faith extinguishes the flaming arrows of the evil one. The Word of God is our sword that defends against the lies of the enemy. Ephesians 6:18 tells us, "...pray at all times in the Spirit and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints," NASB "You believe that God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and shudder." James 2:19, NASB "Now the seventy-two returned with joy, saying, 'Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name!' And He [Jesus] said to them, 'I was watching Satan fall from heaven like lightning. Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will injure you. Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are recorded in heaven.'"

The Gospel is the Good News that Christ has come to set us free from the law of sin and death. "And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him (Jesus). He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written, 'The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed.'" Luke 4:17-18 ESV "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake, he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” Matthew 28:17-21 NASB ABCs of Salvation A Admit you're a sinner and that sinful nature separates us from God. (Romans 3:23) B Believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross as a sacrifice for our sins. The blood that was sacrificed is a cleansing for our sins and reconciles us to God. We believe that he overcame sin and death and was resurrected after three days. (John 3:16) C Confess that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and He is Lord of your life.

As Christians, we are ambassadors of the Gospel; have we gone forth boldly to share the good news, or are we ashamed of it? "For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Greek [Gentile]." Romans 1:16 NASB "Then Jesus came to them and said, 'All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:18-20 NASB Sharing the Gospel is not a suggestion, but a command. 1. Go and make disciples, teach them to obey everything I have commanded. 2. Make disciples of all nations (The Gospel is for everyone, everywhere) 3. We won't be doing this alone; through the Holy Spirit, Christ is always with us. If we don't understand what the Gospel is, how can we share it?

Although we can overcomplicate it, prayer is simply conversing with the one true God, Yahweh, our Father in Heaven, the Creator of the Universe. The Bible tells us to revere His position and remember to speak to Him in humility. However, God can also handle the real, raw, cries of our heart as we see in the pages of the Book of Job, "The Lord giveth, the Lord taketh away, blessed be the name of the Lord." Job 1:21 NASB In the Psalms, King David cries out to the Lord, but he always concludes with praising God and stating the truth about His love for His people despite the current circumstances. When you pray: 1. Let Your Words Be Few. Approach God with humility and reverence. "Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. To draw near to listen is better than to offer the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they are doing evil. Be not rash with your mouth, nor let your heart be hasty to utter a word before God, for God is in heaven and you are on earth. Therefore, let your words be few." Ecclesiastes 5:1-2 2. Check your heart motives: You may feel insecure or inadequate when you pray in public, focus on God, not on how you are coming across to the people around you. "Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me." Psalm 51:10 KJV 3. Pray without ceasing: You can pray while you're driving, doing laundry, when you rise, or lie down, before a meeting, or during a meeting. You can pray anywhere, anytime.

"Yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, 'If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.'” James 4:14-15 ESV You may not know the direction the Lord has for you, but as you surrender your will to His, He will show you the steps to take and light the path ahead. You can trust Him to provide, and provide bountifully. Join us as we discuss Psalms 8 and take a look at God's plan for us to cultivate the earth.

You may feel like you want to give up when you are faced with unending, relentless trials. Or your heart may be filled with hopelessness and despair wondering how we will make it through one more day. Through our faith in God, the lifter of our heads, our Mighty Counselor, Everlasting God, Prince of Peace, the one who binds up the wounds of our broken hearts, we find our hope restored. We can overcome anything the enemy throws our way as we trust and believe in who we are in Christ. Today on the podcast we look at the men and women of faith in Hebrews 11 who were faithful to the Lord and overcame trials of infertility, homelessness, poverty, and immense suffering. Still, because of their faith, they gained approval from the Lord. "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen. For by it, the men of old gained approval." Hebrews 11:1-2 (KJV) "Without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him." Hebrews 11:6 (NASB) "Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing." James 1:2-4 (NASB) "Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you, which comes upon you for your testing, as though some strange thing were happening to you; but to the degree that you share the sufferings of Christ, keep on rejoicing, so that also at the revelation of His glory you may rejoice with exultation." 1 Peter 4:12-13 (NASB) "For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith." 1 John 5:4 (NASB) Finish your race well. Keep fighting the good fight. Do NOT grow weary in well doing.

Welcome to the 2nd-anniversary episode of the podcast!! “For it is written: ‘Eye has not seen, nor ear has heard, nor has entered into the heart of man the things God has prepared for those who love Him.’” 1 Corinthians 2:9 NKJV This scripture was my "life verse" in my twenties. Revisiting it almost twenty years later I think I was misinterpreting its meaning. Today on the podcast we will look at what this scripture really means and how to interpret scripture properly. How do we properly interpret scripture? 1) We always ask the Holy Spirit to help us as we read the Word. The Holy Spirit is the giver of wisdom and helps us to understand. Jesus says in John 16:13-14, “13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. 14 He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you.” ESV 2) Read the Bible in context: chapter, book as well as historical and cultural context. “The Bible is for us, but it wasn’t written to us.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17 “16 All Scripture is inspired by God and beneficial for teaching, for rebuke, for correction, for training in righteousness; 17 so that the man or woman of God may be fully capable, equipped for every good work.:” 3) Put the scripture through the whole counsel of God. Scripture will not contradict scripture. 4) Look at commentaries to see if the Biblical scholars of the last two thousand years agree with your interpretation of the Word. “The things God has for those who love Him…” isn’t something believers have to wait for, it is already ours every time we reach out to the One who loves us and calls us by name. In closing, I will pray Ephesians 3:20-21, NASB “Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.” Discover life in Christ at bountifulliving.net Sharpen your faith on Instagram at @Bountiful_Living

"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving." Colossians 3:23-24 NIV Join the conversation with my friend Lori, a 15-year Homeschool Mama, who encourages women in the value of the sovereign and noble assignment from the Lord; the ministry of our home. Tips for successful ministry in our homes: Find time to be alone with the Lord. "Draw near to Him and He will draw near to you." James 4:8 Find ministry partners. Remember this is Kingdom Work! "God will never call us to a ministry outside of our home at the expense of our home." Lori Pray for your family. Release control to God. "We often can go into a place of fear and anxiety with parenting when we don't feel like we have control, but God is always reminding me that I am a parent, but He is THE parent." LoriPrayer for our children from 2 Timothy 2:22-26: God, we ask that our children flee youthful lusts and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace. May they like King David, call on You from a pure heart and refuse foolish and ignorant speculations, knowing that they produce quarrels. Your Word says, "the Lord's bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient, when wronged, with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition." God lead us to repentance and help us to show our children the importance of repentance because it leads to the knowledge of the Truth. Bring our children to their senses! God, I ask that they escape the snare of the devil so that they are no longer captive by him to do his will. Lord let it be Your will that they follow all the days of their life. God, as is modeled in the Lord's Prayer, may Your Kingdom Come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. In Jesus name, Amen.

"There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every matter under heaven—" Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NASB) There are many seasons in our lives, but through it all, we can trust the God of the universe to equip us, strengthen us, and provide for us in every moment. "For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for prosperity and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11 (NASB) Be patient and faithful to your season, trust God with the process. Truth from God's Word: We need to operate in God's strength. "We can do all things through Christ who gives us strength." Philippians 4:13 (NASB) Jesus will equip me for every good work according to His will, working in me that which is pleasing in His sight. To Him be the glory forever and ever. " equip you in every good thing to do His will, working in us that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen." Hebrews 13:21 (NASB) God will set me on the right path. "The heart of a man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps." Proverbs 16:9 (NASB) Today was not the best day. I feel wronged, I am hurt, but I know that God is working all things together for my good. "God is working all things together for those who love God and are called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28 (NASB) I chose rest today instead of burnout, because Jesus says, "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28 (NASB) "The thief comes to steal kill and destroy, but Christ is come for us to have life." John 10:10 "'I am the way', Jesus said. 'To enter through me is to experience life, freedom, and satisfaction. A thief has only one thing in mind – he wants to steal, slaughter, and destroy. But I have come to give you everything in abundance, more than you expect – life in its fullness until you overflow!" John 10:9-10 (The Passion Translation) Your homework is to REST!

"For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, and love and sound mind." 2 Timothy 1:7 ESV Fear is not from God. Whether you are tormented by nightmares, fearful of scary movies or fear failure, fear steals our peace and leads to anxiety and terror. For all who love the Lord and put their trust in Him we do not have to fear or be afraid. As it says in Josuha 1:6 "Have I not commanded you, 'Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go." Today we study Psalm 91, Ephesians 6, and Isaiah 54. They are full of God's promises for His people. Peace, not fear, is our heritage from the Lord! He is with us, He is our stronghold, our Maker, and His lovingkindness endures forever.

Did you discover your spiritual gifts? If not, listen to the previous podcast "What is My Purpose?" Today we expand on knowing the gifts, talents, and skillset the Lord has entrusted us and discuss how Jesus tells us to use them in Matthew 25 "The Parable of the Talents". When we ask Jesus to be Lord of our lives, that is not the end, that is the first step in becoming His disciple. We begin living a changed, new, transformed life surrendered to his Lordship. Jesus taught this parable of talents to His disciples about a week before He went to the cross to help them to understand the Kingdom of Heaven and their job until the Master, Jesus returns. Two of the servants were faithful, diligent, and good stewards of what the Lord had given them. They took what God gave them and multiplied it. The third servant buried his talent in the ground. This servant was unfaithful to the Lord and wasted opportunity and the resources he was given. If you have buried your talent, dig it up! God is a God of second chances, mercy, and love. Repent and return to your God. 2 Peter 3:9-18 "The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not willing for any to perish, but for all to come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be discovered. Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be destroyed by burning, and the elements will melt with intense heat! But according to His promise, we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells. Therefore, beloved, since you look for these things, be diligent to be found spotless and blameless by Him, at peace, 15 and regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; just as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given him, wrote to you, 16 as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things, in which there are some things that are hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction. You therefore, beloved, knowing this beforehand, be on your guard so that you are not carried away by the error of unscrupulous people and lose your own firm commitment, but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen." Discover life in Christ at bountifulliving.net Sharpen your faith on Instagram at @Bountiful_Living

Life doesn't always turn out like we expect or plan. How do we navigate these roadblocks? Today we continue our study of the Book of Ezra we will identify some of the tactics the enemy can use against us to frustrate us and attempt to halt the work God is doing in our lives. We find our victory in Christ: "We are hard pressed on all sides, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body...Therefore we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, yet our inner self is being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory that is far beyond comparison. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:8-10, 16-18 In this episode, we study Ezra 4-6: EZRA SERIES: What is Revival?

Where are you in your walk with the Lord? 1. at the epic newness of salvation 2. captivity/going my own way/drifting 3. needing to rebuild 4. mature believer 5. on fire If your connection with God is severed, you can rebuild. We cover a lot of ground in this episode. Here are some of the scriptures we discussed for your reference: Old Covenant? New Covenant? What is the difference? Romans 12:1-2 "I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect." Hebrews 8:1-7 "Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest [Jesus], one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, a minister in the holy places, in the true tent that the Lord set up, not man. For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; thus it is necessary for this priest also to have something to offer. Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, since there are priests who offer gifts according to the law. They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things. For when Moses was about to erect the tent, he was instructed by God, saying, 'See that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown you on the mountain.' But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry that is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant He mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises. For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion to look for a second. 2 Chronicles 6 & 7 Solomon's dedication for the Temple 2 Chronicles 7:14-16 "If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land. Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayer that is made in this place. For now I have chosen and consecrated this house that my name may be there forever. My eyes and my heart will be there for all time." - God EZRA SERIES: What is Revival?

What does the Bible say about revival? The only verse that states the word revival verbatim is found in Ezra 9:8 and this specific verbiage is found only in the New King James translation, where it says, “And now for a little while grace has been shown from the LORD our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a peg in His holy place, that our God may enlighten our eyes and give us a measure of revival in our bondage.” This week's podcast, we will explore what the Bible has to say about revival through the eyes of Ezra, a scribe in the days of Israel's return to the promised land to rebuild. In Ezra 1-3 we learn that: REVIVAL BEGINS WITH REPENTANCE AND HUMILITY REVIVAL IS A STIRRING IN THE HEART REVIVAL RESULTS IN UNITY REVIVAL IS A FRAGRANT OFFERING TO GOD REVIVAL KEEPS THE FIRE BURNING EZRA SERIES: What is Revival?

How do we hear from God? We must first posture ourselves to hear what the Lord speaks. We must come to a place of willingness to seek God and hear what He speaks through prayer and reading His Word. 1 Peter 3:12 (ESV) “For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their prayer.” Jeremiah 33:3 (ESV) “Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.” Here is the good news, God hears us when we pray and when we cry out to Him in desperation. He is faithful, but are we faithful? Are we faithful to spend time in His word? Are we faithful to wait when it feels like we will never see an end to our suffering? Posturing is not enough, we must also spend time in His presence. Through prayer and the reading of His Word, we discover His will, His character, His plan, and His call for our lives. Another way God speaks to us is through His Son, Jesus who shows us how to live. Time and time again, He tells us, He has come to do the will of His father. John 5:30 (CSB) Jesus says, “I can do nothing on my own. I judge only as I hear, and my judgment is just, because I do not seek to do my own will, but the will of Him who sent me.” In conclusion, I share my personal testimony and advice on how to hear from the Lord.
