Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeown (Crown Business, 2014)

This book was the ‘read of the year’ for me for 2014. The book addresses the over-committed lifestyle. If you have trouble saying ‘no’ to people and obligations, this book is for you. If you are trying to ‘do it all’ instead of concentrating and focusing on the vital few things you are equipped to do, then this book is for you. It will help you pare down your life to pursue what is absolutely essential to fulfill your purpose on planet earth.

Reasons to Study Spiritual Manifestations

by

The Bible is saturated with miracles. It doesn’t matter where you look, in the New Testament or the Old, the Bible is brimming with them. It is a common thought in this day in this age that miracles no longer occur, that they was just for Bible times, but I can assure you that there are miracles, displays of healing and Holy Spirit manifestations happening in countries across the globe today.  For instance in China, half of the salvations that occur are direct results of a healing miracle. The gifts of the Spirit are manifesting, and learning how He moves will help you to flow with Him in these last days.

The Authority of the Believer by Kenneth E. Hagin (Faith Library Publications; 2nd Revised & enlarged edition, 2009)

This book is one of the few books that I reread every single year. The truth of the authority of the believer, once it is embedded in your spirit, will yield rich dividends in your life.

“A few of us have barely gotten to the edge of that authority, but before Jesus comes again, there’s going to be a whole company of believers who will rise up and with the authority that is theirs, …and they will do the work that God intended they should do.

God has never made it a habit to use things that do not belong to Him. He uses those things that are yielded to Him. Things that are consecrated. Things that are sanctified and set apart for His use. Do you want God to use you? Then you must present your body. God makes two requirements for an acceptable sacrifice. It must be HOLY and it must be HIS.” — A.A. Allen

#004: Are You Hungering after God? [Podcast]

by

Do Americans have a comfortable gospel, compared to the rest of the world? Lack of hunger for the things of God is an early warning signal of a Christian life that is not reaching its full potential. You should have an appetite for His things. You should have a craving for His Word. You should have a strong desire for His Presence. You should have an intensity about you to do His will. You should have a zeal to know Him better.

Jesus Is the Open Door [Video]

by

In the Gospel of John, Jesus Made Seven “I Am” Statements

  • I am the Bread of Life
    I am the Good Shepherd
    I am the Resurrection and the Life
    I am the Light of the World
    I am the Way, the Truth and the Life
    I am the True Vine
    And…John 10:9 (ESV)
    9 I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture.”In John 10:9, Jesus said, I am the door.  Doors are ways into things in God. You will find, as you walk with Him, that God’s house has many doors; some open, some closed and some needing keys.

Doors are ways into things in God. You will find, as you walk with Him, that God’s house has many doors; some open, some closed and some needing keys.

#003: Are You Depending on God? [Podcast]

by

The issue of dependence is a difficult piece for a nation of people known for independence. The very foundation of our country was laid in the idea of independence. We fought for it. We gave our lives for it as a nation. And yet somewhere along the way, as with all things that start well, we lost our way. Independence was never meant to be an excuse to not trust God. Are you depending on God in your everyday life?

Reconcilers For God

by

What is the role of a believer on planet earth? Does the Bible tell us? Why didn’t the Lord save us and then just take us to heaven? What is our purpose? There must be a reason. 2Cor. 5:17 speaks of the ministry of reconciliation. According to the Bible, every believer has this ministry. What is that ministry and how can we fulfill it?

Facing Fear Fearlessly

by

Fear is the number one attack of the enemy that you will face on planet earth. The earth is a fear filled place. The number one fear is the fear of death. It is right that believers are being led to write books about it. It is right for preachers to preach on it. It is right for you to have an arsenal of books and tapes on it, to help you combat it. It is right for you to mark out in your Bible or to have lists of scriptures that help you in this fight. At all costs fear must be eliminated from your life. What steps can we take in order to rid our lives of this deadly enemy?

The Lighthouse

Class Description

by

The Lighthouse is a group of dedicated believers pursuing the biblical purpose of God to be a beacon of light in the midst of an ever darkening world.  This pursuit comes through personal fellowships, in-class relationships, and engaged ministry all with a special emphasis on divine healing and Holy Spirit living. Believers should be burning and passionate in their pursuit of God; desiring to know, yearning to grow, and most importantly, learning to flow out to others. Just as a lighthouse illuminates the night to guide ships safely to harbor we know that only as burning lights can we guide people to Jesus.

The ministry of the Word of God is center stage at the Lighthouse. In the natural, meals can be served two ways. You can take a baked potato out of the vegetable drawer. Add a nice rib-eye steak to that plate out of the back part of the refrigerator, where it’s nice and cold. You can then add those two items onto a gold plate. Place a little garnish on the side and serve it up. The result? It’s beautiful and it has all the correct elements for a wonderful meal. The only problem? It’s still a cold meal. Take that same meal, that same baked potato, that same rib-eye steak and put some heat underneath them and what a wonderfully delicious difference. The Word of God works the same way. Take the rightly divided Word, ministered out of heart burning and hungry for God, and you have the essence of The Lighthouse. People should feel the heat of your passion for God when they are around you. Believers should be hot and passionate in their pursuit of God. Desiring to know Him. Yearning to grow in Him. The only way we are going to get ‘hot enough’ is by getting close enough to the flame. When people asked John Wesley for the secret of his success in revival meetings, John replied, ‘I set myself on fire and people come from miles around to watch me burn.’ The light of your flame, the heat of your passion for God should be sensed and known. This is The Lighthouse at its core.

Matthew 3:11 (ESV)
11 I baptize you with water for repentance, but he who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
