The Battle To Keep Your Focus Where It Belongs (SCORE 2000) | Pastor Keith Hood

Life is full of distractions, but victory comes when you keep your focus on God. Just like Peter walking on water, as long as his eyes were on Jesus, he was unsinkable. But the moment he focused on the storm, he began to sink. No matter how strong the winds of compromise, fear, or temptation blow, stay focused on the One who never changes.

REACH HEAL SERVE

Holiness is more than a lifestyle—it’s a calling. The Bible teaches that even our hair is a symbol of spiritual authority and submission to God’s divine order. When we honor God’s design, we walk in His anointing, protection, and power. Our obedience is a testimony to the world and a declaration in the spirit realm. Choose to align with God’s will and experience His blessings in every area of your life!

REACH HEAL SERVE

When God's order is established, His anointing flows freely! True spiritual authority is not about control—it's about alignment. In a world that resists God's design, we must stand firm. Men, lead your families with prayer and commitment. Women, walk in the power of godly submission and intercession. Surrender to God's way, and watch His power transform your home, your ministry, and your future!

God's Attraction to Emptiness (2006) | Bishop Wade Bass

When God fills, He first finds emptiness. The outpouring of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2 wasn’t just about unity—it was about hunger, about vessels emptied of self and ready to be filled with His power. Just as the widow in 2 Kings 4 gathered empty vessels to receive oil, we must empty ourselves of pride, sin, and distractions so that God can pour into us.

REACH HEAL SERVE

Our outward appearance reflects our inward commitment to God, and hair is a powerful symbol of that distinction. These biblical principles remind us that God's design for men and women is intentional, beautiful, and unchanging. Choosing to honor Him, even in something as symbolic as hair, is a declaration of faith and obedience.

Scripture References:

REACH HEAL SERVE

A heart on fire for God can change lives, but only when that passion is guided by wisdom and submission to His order. David’s fervor for building the temple teaches us that even when we’re not the one to complete the work, our role in preparing the way matters deeply. Misguided zeal, like Saul’s and Jehu’s, can lead to destruction, but zeal aligned with God’s purpose builds the church and draws others to His presence.

God Wants to Talk With Us (SCORE 2009) | Bishop Larry Booker

God knows us completely—our struggles, our thoughts, and even our potential. In Psalm 139, we see that we are "fearfully and wonderfully made," intricately designed with purpose. Despite our imperfections, He calls us not for what we are but for what He can make us. Even in life's chaos, He is the answer, ready to guide and transform us.

Scripture References for Study:

REACH HEAL SERVE

When we pray selflessly for others, God can use us to bring hope, healing, and transformation—not just for them but for ourselves as well. Just as trees provide shade and bear fruit, we are called to stretch out, grow deep in faith, and be a refuge for a thirsty world. Be a "hope dealer," a vessel of love, joy, and peace, and let the fruit of the Spirit flow through you to a dry and broken world.

REACH HEAL SERVE

True holiness begins on the inside but shines outward through a life set apart for God. It's a daily walk of surrender—choosing to align your thoughts, actions, and appearance with His will. Just as God’s Spirit empowers us to break free from sin, He calls us to live in a way that reflects His nature, both inwardly and outwardly. Holiness isn’t a checklist; it’s a relationship marked by love, separation from sin, and devotion to God.
