There is much more to come! Jesus is our First Fruits and you will follow in His footsteps in your own resurrection, and in the mean time between now and your resurrection, you are required to be diligent. What is it, who has it, how can I get it? All this and more coming your way in this message, that will encourage, empower and enlighten you to rejoice in Jesus.

Get your bibles to the book of Proverbs, something to take notes on, and make sure to share this message.

He is RISEN! Praise The Lord! But... What difference has this truth and historical fact made in your life and mine? Oh what a shame when we know a truth, but fail to see and experience the power of The Risen Christ. This Sunday I want to get past the women who ran to the tomb, the disciples who were hiding in fear, and I want to bring The Risen Saviour to you, and let His nail scared hands be a witness to our blind eyes that will free us to run this race with endurance, throwing away every sin that so easy entangles as we fix our eyes on The Risen Jesus.

Freedom is a privilege and to stay free we have to constantly evaluate and be aware of the schemes of the devil. Causal Christianity has churches filled with casualties that we are unable to recover from, because we have not taken seriously the fight and the freedom that is ours in Jesus.

Today we uncover the tactics of the enemy so that you can come out of his trap and stop being a number in the count of those who have fallen and can't get up. Ready to walk out of your prison cell? The chain breaker is on His way, get your bibles to Proverbs 28 and get ready.

A sure sign of a believer in Jesus is BOLDNESS! Boldness is not brashness, or recklessness neither is it passive aggressiveness. Boldness is meekness and confidence even when having to stand alone when everyone has deserted you.

Proverbs 28 challenges us with a very timely challenge, this message feel prophetic in many ways, it is a passage that prepares believers to be BOLD in the face of loneliness, persecution and political unrest. Are you ready to be bold? Stay tuned, I am excited to encourage you and to stand along side you for Jesus!

What motivates you to be a Christian? Does this motivation translate into other areas of your life? In this day and age, motivation is ready to greet you everywhere you go, yet the world is depressed. This is because external motivation cannot accomplish what only The Christ on the cross can. My brother my sister, I long for you to live this life in the power of The Holy Spirit like you have already received your eternal inheritance, and if your heart is racing and your spirit is saying "amen" to this, this message is for you. Proverbs 27 is where we are going to be in our verse by verse exploration of the Bible.

The gospel changes everything. Everything! Including your personality, emotional and spiritual identity. Proverbs is a book of wisdom that speaks in metaphors pointing to the new life that only Jesus can bring. What continually breaks my heart and I am sure the heart of God, is when believers continue to live in shame, while they believe in Jesus, but fail to walk in the newness of life that He has bought with His precious blood, a life free of guilt and shame.

This is in part because we have reduced the gospel to something that is elementary and not eternal, working in us even in this very moment.

Oh come with me past the altars, songs and religion and lets get to Jesus! He is promising you new life!

Cultures and societies use a common emotion to control and to keep order, this emotion has hung around in every society and culture no matter how much we try and shake it off, we're talking about Shame!

What is it, why do we feel it, and how does the gospel change it? We're camping on one verse in Proverbs 27 to unpack this painful, and awkward topic, but it is worth it if that means you can be free from shame. Get ready to break the stronghold that shame has had over you in Jesus name!

Culture is contagious! America is more than a nation, it is a movement that began generations ago of people who disrupted the norm and created a culture that fostered freedom and individual rights. And whenever there is something good you can expect the enemy to be there to corrupt it. Relationships are a beautiful thing to enjoy, but culture can corrode what real relationships are supposed to be. In this message, you are going to see in plain sight how the enemy has distorted what is good and holy and used a culture to pull us away from The Kingdom. Proverbs 27 is where we are going to be. Get ready for your mind an heart to be blessed, and for you to become more like Jesus and less like the present culture.
