Abounding Love Podcast with Former ”Tex” Watson

In this Abounding Love episode, I share that Jesus didn't come to judge mankind, but ". . . to seek and to save that which was lost" (Luke 19:10, NKJV). "For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved" (John 3:17, NKJV). Most people don't believe solely in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ for salvation. Without that belief; that faith; that Jesus died for our sins and rose again, there's only judgment left. But know, ". . . that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation" (Romans 10:9-10, NKJV). However, there's judgment coming for everyone who does not believe. Jesus said, "He who rejects Me, and does not receive my words, has that which judges him -- the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day" (John 12:48, NKJV). The Word will be the Judge. Jesus is "The Word." The apostle John ". . . saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And the one who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war. His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself. He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood and His name is called The Word of God" (Revelation 19:11-13, NKJV). John goes on to say "the armies in heaven" are accompanying Jesus to execute judgment in the earth. These "armies" are described as believers. Join me as we look into these Scriptures and many more, concerning the final judgment of mankind. Selah!

In this "Steps to Your Ministry #5," I share on looking unto God's Word day and night. We look at the story in Luke 10:38-42 of Mary and Martha, who is concerned with everyone serving the Lord, while Mary is sitting at the feet of Jesus. Are you setting at His feet listening to His Word; or is your mind preoccupied with service related things? Many things are needed, especially service, but Jesus says, "Mary has chosen that good part." Have you chosen that "one good part?" Are you hearing the Word of God, and acting on the Word? Are you becoming one with the Word of God in your life? Is your foundation built upon the Rock, which is the Word of God? A foundation built on the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ is what choosing the "good part" is all about. Join me as I discuss choosing that "good part," exploring these Scriptures [Proverbs 4:7; 20-27; Joshua 1:8; 24:15 and Psalm 1:1-3], and discovering the truth. Selah!

In this Abounding Love episode, I continue a six (6) part series on "Steps to Your Ministry." Step #1 was on "Dedication, " and Step #2 on "Your Purpose," along with five goals to get results. In this "Steps to Your Ministry #3," I share on "The Leadership of the Holy Spirit." He empowers us to reach the lost, defeat the devil and equip people for ministry [Mark 16:15-18]. In the book of Judges, we find the story of Gideon, ". . . the Angel of the LORD appeared to him, and said to him, 'The LORD is with you, you mighty man of valor'" (Judges 6:12, NKJV). The Angel tells Gideon that the LORD is with him. But Gideon question this; if the LORD is with him, then why are there no miracles and no deliverance, like in the past when God saved Israel from Egypt. Gideon states that the LORD has "forsaken Israel." "Then the LORD turned to him and said, 'Go in this might of yours, and you shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites. Have I not sent you" (Judges 6:13-14, NKJV). God empowered Gideon to defeat the enemies of Israel. Likewise, Jesus has sent us, saying, "Go preach the gospel" and defeat the enemy! Unlike Gideon, we have the Holy Spirit living in us as born-again believers (1 Peter 1:23). Jesus, our example, being led by the Spirit, overcame the temptation of the devil [Luke 4:1-15]; the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life [Genesis 3:1-7; 1 John 2:15-17]. Join me as we cover these subjects and explore the leadership role of the Holy Spirit in your ministry. Selah!

In this Abounding Love episode, I cover eight (8) tools we need to cast out evil spirits. For example,  we need to not be ignorant of their devices, schemes or plots so they don't take advantage of us [2 Corinthians 2:11]. So first, we need to know our enemy in order to cast them out. Know that our enemy has been defeated; therefore, we have the authority to cast out a defeated foe. We need to know he's also a liar and the father of lies, who seeks to steal, kill and destroy the testimony of Christians through his falsehoods [John  8:44; 10:10]. His goal is to hinder our effectiveness for Christ. In 1 Corinthians 12:10, Paul outlines the gifts we are given to further the Kingdom of God. One listed is the "discerning of spirits," which is the ability to know what Satan and his demons are up to. This is the first tool presented for dealing with evil spirits. Remember, demons plot for your thoughts and feelings. After casting down imaginations, they must be replaced by truth [2 Corinthians 10:3-6]. Join the podcast now, plus study your authority in Jesus' name, see: Matthew 10:8; Mark 6:7; 16:17; Luke 9:1; 10:19; Acts 5:16; 8:5-7; 16:16-18; 19:11-20; and 1 Timothy 4:1. Selah!

In this Abounding Love episode, I share certain "keys" found in Scripture that help us understand Spiritual Warfare better and help to unlock our Faith. Keys are a sign of authority. In prison, the ones who have the keys are the authorities. In Matthew 16:19, we read where Jesus gives Peter [and us] the keys to the Kingdom of God, telling him, "And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven" (NKJV). Then in Acts 16:16-35, we see a story where the authority of the key bearer is obvious. In this story, the jailer has the keys he uses to lock up Paul and Silas, acting on the authority of the Magistrates. This podcast explores how such earthly authority in the second sense and Heavenly authority in the first sense, are found in Scripture with Heavenly authority being able to overrule the earthly authority. Join me as we examine these truths, plus for your study on keys mentioned as symbols of authority, see Isaiah 22:22; Revelation 1:18; 3:7; 9:1; and 20:1. Selah!

In this Abounding Love episode, I share what the term "The Word of God" means. In John 1:1, we find: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Then in John 1:14, we find: "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth." And in John 1:16-17, he states: "And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ." This message is divided into three (3) parts: 1) The Word of God, God in the beginning; 2) The Word of God, Jesus Christ, who came to redeem us from our sins; and 3) The Word of God that lives and resides within us through the anointing of the Holy Spirit. The Word was perfect in the beginning; the Word was perfect in Jesus Christ; and now the Word is perfect in us. As you listen to this podcast, you'll gain an understanding of these three aspects of God's Word. Join me as we look into other Scriptures as well, such as Psalms 107:20; 1 Timothy 3:16; Isaiah 9:6; John 17:17; and 1 Peter 1:23. Selah!

In this Abounding Love podcast, I bring out the need to follow the Scriptures as if they were instructions to God's soldiers. "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work" (2 Timothy 3:16,17, NKJV). We'll look at a number of Scriptures, which all begin with the term, "Let us . . ." For example, in Romans, we see this introduction often: "let us prophesy . . ." (12:6), then, "let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. Let us walk properly . . ." (13:12, 13a). These verses appear as instructions to soldiers on how to be effective in the battle against the kingdom of darkness. "Let us" vocalizes a conscious inner-choice to walk in the Spirit, speaking and living in agreement with God's Word, so we can effectively fight the enemy of our soul. Join me as we look into other "Let us . . ." Scriptures, such as Romans 14:13; 2 Corinthians 7:1; Galatians 5:25; 6:9; 1 Thessalonians 5:8; Hebrews 10:23-24; 13:15 and Revelation 19:7. Selah!
