Sunday Conversation 4/14

How can you build lifelong immunity against depression? God doesn’t want you to consistently worry about the same problems. The Word says to be anxious for nothing. Jesus died to give us an abundant life. Come to Him in prayer with thanksgiving and His peace will saturate your life.

The promises found in God’s Word are for every Believer, but we often become weak in our faith because we’re spiritually malnourished. Sometimes when God doesn’t do something on our schedule, we start to doubt. We can easily mix the natural reasoning of man with the supernatural knowledge of God. His ways are higher than our ways. Give up on your timetable and allow the Lord to prove his faithfulness. His Word does not return void; it will accomplish God’s purpose.

If the secret to an abundant life came through a prescription, would you want one? Paul told Timothy that all Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction and instruction. The Word is from God, and it is all good. It does not return void. There isn’t one problem you can bring to God that He can’t solve.

The best news the world has ever heard came out of a cemetery. “He is risen!” The resurrection story began last Thursday night, 2,000 years ago, while Jesus was praying in the Garden of Gethsemane. The disciples slept. In America today, we are also sleeping during an hour of great spiritual crisis. Jesus’ destiny was the cross, but the cross could not conquer Him. He was, is and always will be the King of kings who gave Himself up that we might have eternal life.

As Believers, we should constantly be learning more about God, diving into his Word and becoming more mature in our spiritual walk. The Church of Jesus Christ should be active, sharing messages filled with God’s love and hope…while offering others the gift of salvation. When we fulfill the Great Commission, Jesus is with us. He gives us the authority to do great works in His name. We are baptized so that we can demonstrate that our new life in Christ has begun and our old, sinful life is dead and buried.

What is a Bible-believing Christian? This is someone who considers the Word of God to be the authoritative voice of the Lord, provided to us by the Holy Spirit. This person reads the Word. They believe it and obey it. Baptism means to live a life that is immersed. There are many kinds of baptism mentioned in the Bible. What are they? The most well-known is water baptism. What is the purpose of water baptism? These Bible basics will absolutely change your life.

Knowledge is power; all matter has energy. Energy released has world-changing power. When you pray in Jesus’ name, powerful things happen. There are two kinds of power in the Bible and in the world today: power over people (to crush and control them) and power to serve people (found in the Bible). He who is the greatest among you is the servant of all.

Salvation has some incredible benefits. Are you taking advantage of them? They are yours because you have faith in Christ, the gift of God unto Salvation. Imagine having these benefits and never accessing them. Many of God’s kids live this way because they don’t develop a relationship with Him. Good relationships are made because both parties work to become involved, to learn more about one another. God placed a desire within us to build healthy relationships with each other and with Him. Trust where He is leading. Rebellion against God always ends with God prevailing.

Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God. He told his disciples, “Upon this rock I will build MY church.” In our modern world, we have moved away from our solid foundation. We cannot allow the world to define the Church or to steal our true identity in Christ. We must share God’s light and live within the freedom He affords us.

As Christians, we must be determined to grow in our faith to overcome the temptations of this world that want to draw us back to our old ways. Spiritual maturity gives us the strength to stand when things get difficult and the unexpected has occurred. Press into your faith and believe that God is Who He says He is and will make all things work together for your good.

If anyone is in Christ, they are a new creation. Satan is trying to steal your identity in Christ. Read and apply the Word. All have sinned and come short of the glory of God. We often give sin a fake ID, saying “they are a good person with a challenge.” God’s Word calls sin a death sentence.

Back To The Basics Part 5

What does the Word of God mean to you? Do you read it daily, believing that the Bible is God’s voice for your life? Do you believe that it’s the spoken Word of God recorded by men through the interpretation of the Holy Spirit? Until you carry that concept in your heart and mind, you might not be ready to have the Word guide you. Scripture is alive! Every time you read the life-giving pages it gives you something new! The Bible can bring you peace and rest. It is the compass of the soul guiding you down paths of righteousness.

All authority has been given to Christ in heaven and on earth. Jesus commanded his disciples to “Go and make disciples.” No Christian comes fully trained. You have to make a disciple. How do you do that? Disciples are made when you teach from God’s Word. Invest time in new converts so they can become disciples. Jesus commanded his disciples to not only make disciples but to baptize them and teach them all that He had poured into them.

On October 7, 2023, war broke out in Israel; now world leaders are calling for the New World Order to take control before HAMAS is defeated. Israel didn’t start this war; they should be allowed to win it. America’s Administration and military are weaker than ever. This is the perfect environment for the New World Order to take control. The Church will be raptured, and the New World Order will introduce the Anti-Christ. Then the tribulation begins…ending at Armageddon.

How do we study Scripture to rebuild the basics of our faith? What do we do with the Word of God once we understand the basics? What power does His Word have in our life? We should always be growing in our faith but must understand the foundational principles of the Word first. Continually develop spiritual muscles in order to become effective witnesses to the goodness of God.

God has given Israel to the Jewish people forever. In Genesis, God promises, “I will curse him who curses you.” The counsel of God stands forever. The Word and the will of God are always the same. You cannot appreciate the Bible and not appreciate the Jewish people.

How do we study Scripture to rebuild the basics of our faith? What do we do with the Word of God once we understand the basics? What power does His Word have in our life? We should always be growing in our faith but must understand the foundational principles of the Word first. Continually develop spiritual muscles in order to become effective witnesses to the goodness of God.

We are on the brink of WWIII after Hamas’ violent attack on Israel, October 7, 2023. The sin of antisemitism is more rampant than ever. It brings God’s judgment on the men and nations who permit it. It’s not a Jewish problem; it’s an American problem. In 1978, I went to Israel a tourist and came back a Zionist. Prime Minister Netanyahu, the Christians of America stand with you until the victory comes.

When did you last set aside time to learn from the Bible? It’s the information you apply that changes your life, not the information you receive. In our modern world, it can be difficult to discern good from evil. People often justify what God forbids. Remember the two builders? The wise man built his house upon the rock, and the foolish man built upon the sand. The storm came and the houses were tested; this was the telling moment when everyone could see the difference in their foundation. Building on the Solid Rock is the only way to survive a season of crisis.

The challenge is not knowing the right thing to do, but in having the strength to do it. If you have something that needs to be shared with someone around you, share it. No one will benefit from the gifts God has given you, from your testimony, until you do. For God’s promises to be fulfilled in your life, seek first the Kingdom of God.

The Promise Of His Power

A witness validates what is being said, what has happened. The world needs someone with enough conviction to be a witness to the power, purpose and promise of Jesus Christ. Jesus has not changed his position on what his children should do until the time of his return. We have been called to be a witness to all He has done in our lives. Do you have the courage to be a witness?

When we pray and fast, we’re asking for God’s plan to be accomplished in our lives. We’re praying fervently that God’s will take place so that He might be glorified. God gave us the keys to the Kingdom; what we bind on earth is bound in heaven. He shares his joy, his peace, his creations…but He will not share his glory. We must never take God’s goodness for granted. Fasting and prayer are effective ways to show our appreciation to God for his presence in our lives, for the power that He shares with us.

Fasting and prayer are effective ways for us to ask Heaven to intervene on our behalf. These life-changing tools help us accomplish the impossible when they are used correctly. The Word tells us that the effective, fervent prayer of the righteous avails much. Would you like to infuse your life with God’s supernatural power? God is ready to reward you openly for the secret things you do for his glory.

Did you succeed last year? Forget it! Did you fail last year? Forget it! Did someone hurt your feelings ten years ago? Forget it! Forgetting your past should be a priority. Use your life experiences to become better, not bitter. Don’t allow your past to be so remembered, so completely burned into your memory, that it paralyzes you today and imperils your tomorrow. Remembering a bitter past only produces pain for you and for those around you.

The 5th letter is to a church that was in one of the most affluent and powerful cities in Asia...Sardis. For all they had, Christ looked at them and says, “You are dead.” They didn’t die because they lacked material things. They died because they spiritually produced nothing.

Praying For A Change Part 4

The Christmas story is the story of spiritual warfare. The Light of Truth was born in Bethlehem’s manger. The Prince of Darkness saw it as an invasion of his territory. Christmas is the story of redemption. Jesus came to save us from our sin. Have you received Christ as your Savior? If not, you have rejected the greatest gift of all time.

Praying For A Change Part 3

Prayer and praise make a difference in your life. The God who listened to the church in Acts, is the same God listening to your prayers today. How do you encounter the changes you are seeking? Through prayer. Don’t disqualify the power of prayer. What is the difference between God’s perfect and permissive will? When you pray, are you aligning yourself with His will? The effective, fervent prayer of the righteous avails much.

The greatest gift that mankind ever received was born in a cave to a virgin, Mary. God sent him to redeem us from our sin. Jesus offers healing for the sick, prosperity to all and hope for tomorrow. He offers all who believe the gift of eternal life. Is Jesus your Lord and Savior?

When God says something…it is done. God promises that his Word will not return void. Our greatest Hope, Jesus Christ, is coming again. Where are you placing your hope today? Is it in the promises found in God’s Word? Every promise He makes comes true in his perfect timing.

Nothing truly happens in the life of a Believer until you pray. Prayer is one of the most exciting and powerful tools that God gives us permission to use. It’s a gift that we often don’t unwrap. God is not a respecter of persons. If Jesus’ prayer could move heaven and earth…so can yours! In the Bible, God tells us how we should pray in the Lord’s Prayer. You can’t expect a change until you pray for one.

If you live without hope you are existing, not living the abundant life mentioned in God’s Word. “And now abide faith, hope and love…but the greatest of these is love.” Faith is what we give to God. Without faith it is impossible to please him. Love comes down to us from heaven, but hope is the expectation that connects us to God’s love. Without hope, it is impossible to keep the faith. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. What is the hope for inheritance and how do we obtain it?

Churches are part of a Supernatural Kingdom. Any church that does not hold up the light of Jesus Christ is not a lampstand; they are just a stick. This letter in Revelation is for the Church of Philadelphia. Jesus called them the church that demonstrated brotherly love. We are commanded to love one another so that others will know we are disciples of Christ. Love is not what you say. Love is what you do.

In the life of a Believer, every day is Thanksgiving Day. Are you thankful? Thanksgiving is caught, not taught. It is not an emotion. It is a decision. It is an act of your will despite the trial you are facing. The spirit of thanksgiving rejoices in the day of adversity. It releases your faith to conquer the giants! Life is God’s gift to you. What you do with it is your gift to God. Thanks-living is gratitude in action. Thank God for your talents and use them to achieve the impossible. Every day has the possibility of a miracle. Live each day like it was your last!

In our modern world, people are rapidly losing hope. But if you opened your eyes to see the sunrise, you have a reason to be filled with hope. God’s mercies are renewed every morning. The breath of life He gave you can fill your heart with hope. Those who put their hope in God will never be put to shame. There will always be hope for a better tomorrow. You may be struggling through a dark midnight in your life, but joy comes in the morning. Hope is not something we have because of what we possess, but because of Who we know.

There are seven letters in Revelation chapters two and three addressed to the seven churches in Asia. The third letter addressed to Pergamus, is for every child of God that lives in a hostile environment. This church is described as the church where Satan’s throne is. To the church at Pergamus, He understood that they lived in a tough neighborhood that believed in many false gods…but you follow the one true God. This is very much like our modern world. We worship many false idols; anything goes in our society. We must choose to follow Almighty God.

Those who are successful have courage, the courage to continue when others have given up. It doesn’t matter how old you are or where you came from, how many worldly possessions you own… If you’re going to enjoy the promises that God gave you, it will take a dose of divine courage. We live in a troublesome time, but we are filled with great hope! If God is for us, who can be against us? You were created for great things! Have the courage to move forward and accomplish all that God has ordained for you.

Hebrews says we are “surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses.” Paul is saying that he is just a part of the whole. It’s as if there has been, throughout the generations, a relay race to accomplish the cause of God and to establish His Kingdom here on earth. Young Believers on earth today are the anchor leg in this relay race. They are not here on accident. It is so important to understand what God expects from each of us. What is an apocalypse and how does it affect our daily lives and our faith?

Sunday Conversation 10/29

The storm that we presently see in Israel is fierce, but Israel will prevail. Demon powers are on parade around the world, but we walk in faith, holding onto God’s Hope. Hope produces joy that the world doesn’t give, and the world can’t take away. The Bible tells us that there is a door of hope for those who are willing to walk through it.

We see immense struggle across the globe at every level. People are fighting for control. Nations are working to unseat the Super Power that is the United States. Communism is trying to overwhelm capitalism. Inflation is out of control! We are working harder for less and asked to pay more. Where do we turn? Our hope lies in the fact that God is in control. No government can overthrow him; no regimen can control him. The Bible tells us that, before Jesus’ return, there will be signs We are seeing these all around us, yet we do not live in fear. It is time to look up! Our redemption draws near!

What are the supernatural and natural boundaries of the Cross? Everyone that lives without Christ is on one side of the Cross. The Bible tells us that the wages of sin is death. When we cross this boundary and accept Christ as our Savior, the other side of the Cross offers us salvation. You cross the boundary from the old to the new, becoming a brand-new creation in Christ, not simply an updated version of your former self. Crossing this boundary changes your life forever!

God is not the author of confusion. When you remove a border, you will experience confusion and chaos. Just look at our southern borders. Right now, our society is trying to erase the border of gender. Gender is not a feeling; it is a fact. Genesis tells us that “God created them male and female.” Why would we push as a society to erase gender borders? It simply creates chaos. Our modern world continues to try to erase borders between the truth and a lie, but we must refer to God’s Word and hold tight to the truth.

Borders are blessings, not burdens. The borders of salvation were created at Calvary when Christ died to redeem every sinner. This border is open to all; it never runs out of resources. There is still room at the Cross for you!

Smyrna is the second of the 7 churches of Asia. It is the only church Christ did not correct or rebuke. All the other churches He chastened, but not this one.

What is going on at our nation’s borders? Some want strict border enforcement, and some prefer open borders. Each has its own result, but let’s look in God’s Word to see what He says about borders. God’s borders can cause us to question how we conduct ourselves and how we choose to fulfill God’s plan and purpose in our lives. Are you following God’s plan, or allowing the Enemy to dictate your personal borders?

Border control is a righteousness versus unrighteousness problem. God’s promises are given to us in Scripture, but we too often concern ourselves with what others think. “Experts” tell us how we should live in order to be successful. Choose to focus on where God is leading and restore the boundaries of truth in your life, in this nation and in the nations of the world.

Do you need a miracle in any aspect of your life? If you don’t believe in miracles right now…you will when you need one. God can bring you to a place where there is joy unspeakable in the midst of a soul-crushing storm. He is still in the miracle-working business!

In our Christian walk, we need the Word of God to continually grow. We must learn how to absorb the Word in new ways, applying it to every aspect of our being. Long-term church attendance doesn’t mean you know everything the Bible has to offer. We walk through different phases in life and throughout each one, the Bible gives us invaluable wisdom…but we must be willing to open the pages and apply these precious promises to our daily lives.

You cannot be a peacemaker until you discover Jesus Christ. Peace is a condition of the heart towards God, found in reconciling your life with God. We are first justified by God and then we find his peace. A righteous life is a peaceful life.

You can find great faith in the value of God’s Word, in fellowship with Believers and in the supernatural power that Christ has given you. Be confident in how you share your faith with others, while increasing the intensity for which you crave God’s presence, purpose and power in your life. Regardless of how long you have been a Christian, there is always more to learn.

Why is it important for you to stay committed to seeing the harvest come to fruition in your life? The Word promises us, “As long as the earth remains, there will be seed time and harvest...” This is both a natural and a supernatural principle. That which a man sows, he will reap. Are you sowing your seed in the flesh or the spirit? A relationship with the Lord brings his goodness, mercy, and grace into your life. Do not grow weary in doing good. In due season, you shall reap if you do not lose heart.

Success comes from the Lord who is your rock, your sword and your shield. Nothing is impossible when God is on your side! Conflict doesn’t always come from a natural source. You are mighty to pull down those things that come against you; our weapons are not carnal. The battle belongs to the Lord.

How can you recognize the difference between multiplied seed and harvest? Seed time and harvest is a major biblical theme. Do you want God to supply seed for you to multiply? He can increase the fruits of your righteousness by following these Biblical principles. To prosper in every aspect of your life, you need to identify the difference between the seed you plant and the harvest.

In the last days, perilous times will come. What is the root cause? The Word tells us that the world will have a form of godliness but deny the power thereof. This is the world we live in today. To combat evil, we must understand what God requires of us. Do not become discouraged. Hard times do not define us as Believers. God’s Word does. What is Biblical prosperity? God wants you to prosper in all things. There are three things you can do for yourself to prosper physically, spiritually, emotionally, and financially.

We live in a world that is filled with hard places. Who do you call upon when you get there? In every hard place, in every battle, David reminds us that God will forever make a way. Cry out to him when you face the impossible and He will deliver you. Trouble is not the problem; how you face it is. Call upon God and He will deliver you!

In this world, you will have hard times! The Bible promises us this, so why are we surprised when trouble arrives at our door? You will go through spiritually hard places, dark days. They never arrive at a good time. But be of good cheer, He has overcome the world! If God is for you, who can be against you? The Lord is your rock, and He is worthy to be praised!

When someone has done you wrong, how do you react? Do you show them mercy? We often ask God for mercy, but do we extend it to others? Surely goodness and mercy shall follow you all the days of your life…if Jesus Christ is the Lord of your life.

One of the most powerful things you can do is pray! The disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray. They knew there was something different about his prayer life. When Jesus prayed, heaven moved…and that same power is in us today. Jesus gave the disciples an example of how to pray that we can still use today. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.

Your emotions can be utilized as a resource for good in your life. Scripture tells us that “anxiety in the heart causes depression, but a good word makes the heart glad.” The Bible is a great source of joy and truth. Where are you getting your information from? Are you walking by faith? If you are using God’s Word to guide your life, you can expect great things to happen…even when life is challenging. Live in the joy of his presence.

Jesus brought messages of hope and healing. Today, many are searching for hope, love, and peace. You can only find this when Christ becomes your answer for everything. The Word says, “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven.” This is having the opposite of the defiant attitude saturating our society today. A life with Jesus makes you far richer than anything this world has to offer.

Life is so much sweeter because of our emotions. But what purpose do emotions serve? Think of living your life without joy, love or passion. How sad would that be? Your faith can either allow your emotions to understand what God is calling you to do, or your emotions can run over your faith and cause problems in your life. There is no reason to struggle with your emotions or to live in fear. God has not given us a spirit of fear. How can you balance your emotions and your faith? Dive into the Word and lean into God’s goodness.

Our God is a healer! He healed the Israelites when they left Egypt, and He continues to heal us today. He distinguished himself from every other false god in ancient Israel, gods who promised curses and disease. Almighty God conquers sickness and disease with the power of his healing word! By his stripes we are healed! He wants to heal and restore you physically, spiritually, emotionally, financially…in every aspect of your life. Everything in your life that is broken, He longs to mend.

You cannot be conformed to the things of this world. The principles to prosper are found in the Word and come with a Kingdom mindset. God delights in the prosperity of his servants, and He wants you to be blessed in every aspect of your life. God doesn’t withhold blessings from us, but sometimes we are not in a position to receive.

2 Timothy 3:5 says,” Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof…” Denying what power? The power that dances in fiery furnaces and seals the mouths of hungry lions. The power that birthed a baby from a virgin. The power that heals and brings the dead back to life. The power that controls the winds and the waves. All power belongs to God, but the same power that raised Jesus from the grave is in us. Remember who your Source is. Remembering where your blessings come from builds your faith for tomorrow.

God wants you to prosper spiritually, financially, physically and mentally. It is becoming more difficult to prosper by the world’s definition, but there has never been more opportunity to prosper under God’s law. No good thing will He withhold from those who diligently seek him. Believers can prosper in perilous times by making Christ a priority.

The essential ingredients of leadership include insight (vision, wisdom and discernment), your initiative (action you take based on what you want to do) and your influence. Impact is the evidence that you made a difference. The impact you make on this world is replicated by others and helps them along their own journey. The Word is filled with examples of the impact that Jesus made on others. He said that we could lay hands on the sick and they would recover. That is still true today.

Jesus paid the ultimate price to liberate us from the stress and anxiety of life. Do you have a Ph.D. in worry? There is much to worry about in today’s world, but you can find freedom from worry through Christ.

America is the land of the free and the home of the brave. Sadly, our current moral and political corruption knows no limit. We the People need to start telling Congress what they should do, rather than Congress dictating what we must do. Freedom isn’t free.

How does the Bible’s perspective on leadership apply to our lives? God is not the author of confusion. The Bible gives us all the answers we need to live a successful life. We should be ever-learning, craving knowledge of the gifts that God has given us. What is your leadership style now and what can it become in the future? How can you honor God with your life? Let’s learn about five essential ingredients for leadership. Every one of us is a leader!

Experience the captivating biblical landscape that breathes life into Scripture and enhances your comprehension of Jesus' ministry. Embark on a journey where the Word of God truly comes alive, revealing its timeless wisdom and unparalleled power. Delve into the profound teachings and compelling narratives that illuminate the significance of faith, empowering you to grasp the relevance of the Bible in our lives today. Prepare to unlock the transformative potential of the Word as it unveils its enduring wisdom and transformative strength.

What happens when you hear the Lord’s voice, but do nothing? Christ is coming back to establish his throne and reward the faithful. Since He is coming back… don’t just stand there. Do something!

Believe on the Lord and you shall be saved. If you do not believe in him, He cannot save you. Not everyone who attends church will go to heaven. God loves everyone, but if you reject him, He cannot save you.

What is the purpose of the Holy Spirit in the life of a Believer? The book of Acts tells us about the purpose of the Holy Spirit in our lives. The Holy Spirit comes to unite us. Oftentimes, we attempt to get the Lord to do our will instead of following his lead. But the Word tells us that what God promises, He will provide for us in his time and under his authority, not ours. The Holy Spirit gives us the power to do what God has called us to do until the time of his return.

Fathers are the foundation, guides, and directors of their families, and we want them to know how needed they are. In honor of Father's Day, we are thrilled to present an inspiring conversation with Pastor Hagee. With a remarkable 65 years of unwavering ministry, his journey serves as a testament to the extraordinary power of faith in God. At the age of 83, Pastor Hagee continues to envision and pursue future endeavors, demonstrating the limitless possibilities that arise when we place our trust in God. Through his remarkable story, we witness how faith propels us beyond our wildest dreams and surpasses our own expectations.

Jesus used parables to teach us lessons about who God was and what He expected from his children. The parable of the prodigal son tells us about a son who threw his opportunities away. The prodigal is a state of mind, the far country. Are you living far away from the Father? It’s time to come home.

We receive the presence, purpose, and power of the Holy Spirit by receiving Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. The Holy Spirit establishes our intimate relationship with God as our loving Father. He bears witness to our identity as children of God, reminding us of His love, comfort, and presence. In the midst of the world's troubles, uncertainties, and darkness, the Holy Spirit brings peace and comfort. By relying on the Holy Spirit's power and purpose, we can shine God's glory in this world.

We all know what it is like to be wounded. When this happens, will you behave righteously or wickedly? We all want to be counted worthy. Who is Jesus in your life? Do you obey the Word of God, or question it to justify your behavior? Following God’s lead takes us to blessings that we cannot contain.

The fruit of the Spirit, described in Galatians, includes qualities like love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. These qualities are evidence of the Holy Spirit's presence and should be cultivated in one's life. The gifts of the Spirit, mentioned in 1 Corinthians 12, are freely given and include abilities such as wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discernment, speaking in tongues, and interpretation of tongues. Possessing the fruit of the Spirit is vital for using and sharing the gifts effectively. Ultimately, the Holy Spirit empowers believers to be Christ's witnesses and bear spiritual fruit.

America and the countries of the world are falling apart, laden with absolute corruption. Christ is coming for those who “eagerly” look for him, but many doubt his return. This deep dive through Scripture walks us through the signs of Jesus’ return.

Cornerstone is a part of the New Testament church that Jesus started thousands of years ago. In a thriving church, there are inevitable moments of transition. In 2018, Pastor Hagee passed the torch to his son, Matthew, so that Cornerstone could continue to build the legacy and grow. We are each entrusted with different things; God expects us to increase what He gives us. Are you using your talents/resources to serve his Kingdom? When you are faithful with a few things, God entrusts you with more.

There are seven things God cannot do. He cannot be given a problem He cannot solve. He will never leave you nor forsake you. God will not allow his people to be ashamed. He shares his glory with no one; He will not break covenant. God does not change, and He will not remember your sins when you confess them.

Without Pastor Hagee’s mother, his legacy might never have been born. It was her prayers that brought him to Christ. It wasn’t a sermon; it was Vada Hagee going into heavenly places, asking God to reach down and save her son from the enemy. What you bind on earth, Jesus will bind in heaven. You have the authority through the Holy Spirit to go into heavenly places and ask for God to move here on earth. We are promised that we will have trouble in this world, but Jesus has overcome the world. We are his, and therefore more than conquerors.

In the book of Esther, the unseen hand of God prepared her for God’s assignment. Esther did not know that God was preparing her to accomplish a divine assignment. When you are not prepared for something in this life, God can help you rise to meet the challenge.

The difference between history and legacy is that legacy is a past worth repeating. Jesus is the head of the church and we are his disciples. How can we play our part today to create a legacy for tomorrow? What is a great church? The church is essential in every generation around the world. It is the entity that is authorized to unlock the supernatural power of heaven here on earth. Every church that professes Christ belongs to the Lord. A church should be doing the work He has called them to do, under his authority so that the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

There is no limitation to God’s ability. Everything He has promised, He can do. Everything in his Word has been accomplished. With a Word that is true and a God who is able, what is preventing us from doing what God has called us to do? We must place our faith in him. He is the God who cannot fail.

Thy Word is truth. The Word of God is not a topic to be debated, but the answer that the world needs to hear. We must declare it with confidence. Jesus must be a part of your firm foundation in order to succeed in this life.

How should a father, as the spiritual priest of the home, pray over his family? How can each of us pray intentionally? We must abide in God’s Word, making it a part of the conversation in our home. Husbands honor your wives and pray in agreement with her, so that your prayers aren’t hindered. God values men and women equally, but we were created differently in a way that complements each other. We were not designed to compete with one another. The same creative power used to create Adam, also created Eve.

God wants you to receive what you are praying about. Ask in Jesus’ name, in faith believing and you will receive. Seek and you shall find. Abide in God’s Word.

Until you understand the power, purpose and protection of the blood of Christ, you will never understand God’s plan for your personal salvation.

This bloodline surrounds you, heals you, protects you, liberates you from your past and guarantees success in your future.
