Happy Sunday! ❤️ This Sunday morning I'm sat in church in total freedom... a full worship team on stage, the room full of people and the Word is being preached with no restriction. As I'm sat here, I can't help but think of our brothers and sisters around the world today who are totally unable to experience that same freedom. I pray I never become so distracted by my own comfort that my heart forgets to keep them in constant prayer.

This past week, more than a dozen Christians were arrested in China's latest house church raid. Keep the church and its members in your prayers 🙏🏼

Our theology of the New Covenant will never be correct till we have a good understanding of the Gospel of the Kingdom.

#Jesus

Be happy [in your faith] and rejoice and be glad-hearted continually (always); Be unceasing in prayer [praying perseveringly]; Thank [God] in everything [no matter what the circumstances may be, be thankful and give thanks], for this is the will of God for you [who are] in Christ Jesus [the Revealer and Mediator of that will].
1 Thessalonians 5:16‭-‬18 AMPC

Slaves of Sin (Addictions)
Continuing to do something you know is destructive to yourself and loved ones your life affects... You are a slave to it... modern speak addicted...

We know that our old (unrenewed) self was nailed to the cross with Him in order that [our] body [which is the instrument] of sin might be made ineffective and inactive for evil, that we might no longer be the slaves of sin.

Saturday morning and there is still Hope in Jesus Christ! There is victory and Hope for everyone that seeks the Lord! Come just as you are, give your burdens to Jesus! There is forgiveness through His blood, there is Hope in His Word! Jesus is alive!

For we are God's [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].
Ephesians 2:10 AMPC

Our God is amazing. Jesus wept for his friend Lazarus and the situation. Then he said a few words and raised him from the dead. Compassion, tenderness, authority, victory.
