Christ In You Christian Podcast from Christ In You Church with Jason and Lisa Stoops

In Acts 16, we see how Paul and Silas praise God even in the midst of their trials and persecutions. They were delivered because they praised God in spite of!!

Paul went around pointing people to Jesus. He did not come to the people with the wisdom and knowledge of man. He came with manifestation of the Spirit of God with power so that people looked to Jesus NOT to Paul. This should be our same mindset. Let the Spirit of God lead and guide you. Let people see the Christ in You and glorify God in heaven and NOT you. ======== Subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts and leave a review!

Peter and John manifested the miraculous power of God and the result - a man who was crippled that begged for money for many years of his life, was healed  and delivered from the spirit of infirmity. If you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, you too have miraculous power living in you for others to see and partake of. God did not fill us with His power so we could hoard it. God filled us with His power so that we could manifest Him to others.         ======== Subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts and leave a review!

Never settle when God sees what you don't. Go to Jesus and be healed - in your mind and body. When you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, He will move on your behalf. Faith moves God. It's impossible to please God without faith. ========   Subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts and leave a review!   If the Lord has put it on your heart to support the ministry, you can do so here.

In this episode, we are looking at 2 Peter 2. In context, Peter is talking about false leaders and how they do not have the Spirit of God - they are wells without water. They take you AWAY from Christ. Not only do we need to be careful about the leadership we allow in our lives, but we must also be careful about who we allow to be our friends. We want to avoid spending a lot of time around dry wells because they have nothing of substance to offer us. The ultimate goal of the enemy is for you to become a dry well (they are in the flesh, not having the Spirit). Ask God for wisdom so that you don't become deceived (stray away from safety, truth or virtue). ======== Subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts and leave a review!

We are looking at Psalms 139:23-24. The word search means to penetrate, to examine intimately. Let God reveal to you those hidden things within you so you can repent and move forward in the Lord. Stay humble before the Lord. ===   Join the new online community! Get in touch here. Support the ministry here.

Hannah was falsely accused by Eli the priest of being drunk, but really she was just pouring out her heart before God.     We can so easily become an Eli – making assumptions  about people when we have no idea what we’re talking about. But, at least Hannah stood up for herself and wasn’t intimidated by Eli.    Don’t be an Eli and have the courage to stand up for the truth like Hannah did.    It's our heritage to condemn (refute) the tongues that rise up against up in judgement. Don't be afraid to speak up when someone lies on you.        Isaiah 54:17 and you shall refute every tongue that rises against you in judgment.This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord  and their vindication from me, declares the Lord.   Proverbs 6:16-19 There are six things that the LORD hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.   We cannot be a false witness. We cannot make assumptions or judge based on appearance or even what someone else says. Judge righteously through the Spirit of God.   Note: the episode refers to Redeemed Life Ministry and that was the name of this ministry before we changed the name.

In Psalms 42:5, David was feeling disquieted - inner tumult, depressed, and downtrodden. We feel like this too throughout our walk with Jesus. But when we feel like this - what do we do?  Do we stay in that place?  When feeling like this, King David said to himself wait a minute...I'm going to HOPE in God. That word hope means to be patient. David was like, I'm not going to stay in this place of feeling depressed or defeated. I will hope in God....He is my hope...He is my salvation...He's got my back. I will still praise HIM. We to have the same mindset. We have to remember we are in covenant with the Lord God almighty.

There is still hope for the prodigal son.

In today's episode, we have an excerpt from last Saturday night's service. You can always join us on Facebook live on Saturday's at 6pm (time can vary please check the Facebook page).  The message was all about denying yourself which is to die to your flesh. We must humble ourselves before God. Jesus wants us to surrender everything. When we do that the life of Christ will live through us. Christ in us will give us the power to do all of the things we through our flesh cannot do.  === Join the online community – https://podcast.christinyouchurch.com Get in touch – info@christinyouchurch.com Give – https://christinyouchurch.com/give

Today, we're taking a look out of Daniel and how he was able to be victorious even in the face of persecution.  Jesus told us that we would have tribulation in this world. But He also said to be of good cheer because He overcame the world. John 16:33 When we keep praying, keep praising and keep our focus on God we will be able to endure to the end.  === Join the online community – https://podcast.christinyouchurch.com Get in touch – info@christinyouchurch.com Give – https://christinyouchurch.com/give

You HAVE the victory through Jesus Christ! Stir up the gift of God that is in you. Get on fire for Jesus.  2Co 4:7-11  But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;  Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. You have A DEPOSIT - CHRIST IN YOU - the Holy Ghost - the gift of God - stir yourself up! === Join the online community – https://podcast.christinyouchurch.com Get in touch – info@christinyouchurch.com Give – https://christinyouchurch.com/give

As believers of the Lord Jesus Christ, we all fall short of the glory of God, but it’s no excuse to sin. If and when we sin we have an Advocate with the father to ask for forgiveness.   We must repent and turn from the sin. God is so faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Never condemn yourself because you messed up or allow a Pharisee/religious spirit to condemn you.  We have a Father that loves us and is ready to forgive.  However, when we sin it just means that our flesh is alive. So we must humble ourselves and get crucified with Christ.   When we are alive in the flesh we are easily taken captive by the devil to do what the devil wants us to do. BUT when we die to the flesh we are alive in Christ and we do HIS will. So like Paul we must die daily to our flesh so the life of Christ can manifest from us. 2 Timothy 2:26  ========= Join the online community – https://podcast.christinyouchurch.com Get in touch – info@christinyouchurch.com Give – https://christinyouchurch.com/give

Hey believers! There will be times when people and cirumstances will try to stop you from doing the will of the Lord. But when you know what the Lord is calling for you must obey the Lord - no matter what. And the best part is that Jesus will give you the strength you need to do what you need to do.

Let's talk about being faithful to God. When we stand on the word of God we will be inaccessible...nothing with be able to touch us. The tactics of the devil will not succeed.  Jason goes over the account of Daniel and the wicked plot against him. See Daniel 6.

Jesus performs miracles even when we don't ask Him to. He cares for us. He came to bring light to the darkness. He came to heal the broken-hearted and to those in bondage. He is the ONLY one that can make us free!  Let's look at this surprise miracle from Mark 3: 1-5.   ========= Join the online community – https://podcast.christinyouchurch.com Get in touch – info@christinyouchurch.com Give – https://christinyouchurch.com/give

Have you ever felt like God is not responding to your prayer requests? As if your prayer is not being answered? Sometimes our help is delayed just like in Daniel's day. Embrace the delay. God will respond on His time. Keep praying... keep humbling yourself before Him. He is there and He will respond!! Daniel 10:12-14 12 Then he continued, “Do not be afraid, Daniel. Since the first day that you set your mind to gain understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them. 13 But the prince of the Persian kingdom resisted me twenty-one days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was detained there with the king of Persia. 14 Now I have come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the future, for the vision concerns a time yet to come.”   Join the online community – https://podcast.christinyouchurch.com Get in touch – info@christinyouchurch.com Give – https://christinyouchurch.com/give

God is a Miracle Worker! Miracles are still real and relevant today. ALLLLL things are possible with Him. Remember Psalms 103:1-5 and don't forget about all of His benefits. Jason shares his testimony about how God miraculously healed his daughter Makelle.  =========== John 3:18  He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.  All it takes is for you and I to believe that Jesus is the Christ sent by God the Father....and Jesus will seal you will the Holy Spirit of promise. =============== Join the online community – https://podcast.christinyouchurch.com Get in touch – info@christinyouchurch.com Give – https://christinyouchurch.com/give

Nehemiah faced great opposition by those that did not want him to rebuild the wall. They accused Nehemiah of many things that were not true. Nehemiah responded by stating the truth and not backing down to the enemies attacks and we should never back down or be intimidated by our enemies either. While responding to the enemies,  he called out to God for strength to complete the work. Always keep your focus on God and ask him for strength so that  you can run this race of faith having victory in every situation. ======== Come join the conversation inside the online community >> www.podcast.christinyouchurch.comGive ＞＞ christinyouchurch.com/giveGet in touch ＞＞ info@christinyouchurch.com

Jason's testimony on how God led him to a place of bondage and then delivered him. This testimony is all about being delivered from a cult-ish (the definition of cult I’m referring to is defined as having a misplaced or excessive admiration for a particular person), very prideful and controlling church environment. If you heard the Lord tell you to do something – obey. It’s not up to the leader to tell you it’s right or wrong. At the end of the day you have to give an account to God for yourself. No leader should control what you do in the Lord. No leader should be preaching his opinions. No leader should be creating a fearful environment by saying “I am sent”, “do you know who I am?”, or saying things like “this is the Philadelphia church and no one needs to leave” or so much truth flies around here if you leave you’re done… It’s our job as believers to speak out against unrighteousness in hopes that all might come to repentance. Stand up for what’s right today! Stand up for righteousness!   ==== Join the online community - https://podcast.christinyouchurch.com Get in touch - info@christinyouchurch.com Give - https://christinyouchurch.com/give

We can know longer live like the world. We are called out of darkness into His marvelous light. We are in the world, but not of the world.

Here are a few subtle signs of controlling leaders and church environments. Beware. If you’ve never experienced this before, just know that it is happening throughout the body of Christ. Let’s pray that eyes are opened and people are delivered. There is no bondage in Jesus Christ. We have been redeemed and returned to the Good/Chief Shepherd and Bishop of our souls. As believers, we have Christ in us. This means we need to depend on HIM and HIM only. Leaders should be helping – not calling the shots, not abusing their authority, not making people line up by holding scriptures over believers heads. We all have to answer to God individually.   ===== Connect with us inside the online community here! Get in touch >> info@christinyouchurch.com

You might not see the signs of a controlling pastor. They are usually very subtle. Scripture is used to justified behavior. It can all go undetected until the Lord opens your eyes. Control, manipulation, and fear tactics are all elements of bondage. We are not bound. Jesus made us free. xx Lisa   ==== Come join the conversation inside the online communityGive ＞＞ christinyouchurch.com/giveGet in touch ＞＞ info@christinyouchurch.com

This is one of the biggest revelations we've had on this journey of faith!
