DAWN Extra

Before you face the pressures of the day, sharpen your spirit. Before you make decisions, sharpen your identity. Before you swing at life — sharpen your awareness of who you are in Christ.

In this message, Dr. Tim Grage teaches why confession is the believer’s sharpening stone. You’ll learn how your words align you with your divine union, how to keep your spiritual edge, and how daily declarations prevent you from slipping into the weakness of mere humanity.

Success is never a solo journey. God moves through people—and He even became a man to save men. That means managing relationships isn’t optional, it’s essential. In this message,

Pastor Tim unpacks why your ability to nurture, manage, and sustain relationships is often the difference between breakthrough and breakdown.

From Joseph before Pharaoh, Abigail calming David, Paul reconciling Philemon and Onesimus, to Jesus teaching us how to face conflict—Scripture is clear: relationships matter. Prayer is powerful, but it cannot replace wisdom in dealing with people.

Learn how to:

✅ Maintain your networks even before you need them

✅ Control yourself in the presence of influence

✅ Choose negotiation over unnecessary battles

✅ Resolve conflicts in love rather than avoidance

✅ Read the room and discern the moment

✅ Lead well at home, not just at work Your harvest is tied to your relational nets. Keep them clean. Invest in them daily. God will use them to bring you into your destiny.

📖 Key Scriptures: Luke 5:2, Proverbs 23:1–2, Luke 14:31–32, Matthew 18:15, 1 Samuel 25, Philemon 1

Faith is more than what you see and say—it must be lived out through what you do.

Today, we dive into the third strand of the threefold chord of faith: action. Jesus delayed going to Lazarus because He acted in faith, not fear.

He told lepers to go show themselves to the priests before they were healed.

Elijah asked the widow to feed him first before her miracle came.

Every miracle had an act of faith attached to it. James reminds us: “Faith without works is dead.” (James 2:26) Faith doesn’t wait for evidence—it moves because God’s Word is already settled.

Join me as we learn to ask the Holy Spirit, “What is the act of faith here?” and step boldly into the doing side of faith.

📖 Scriptures: John 11:4–6, Luke 17:14, 2 Kings 17:13–16, James 2:26

The most important prayer after knowing our equality with God is the prayer for light.

Light opens our eyes to see what others cannot, to recognize hidden provision, and to discern God’s presence in every season. From the disciples at Emmaus to Hagar in the wilderness, scripture shows us that everything we need is already around us—if only our eyes are opened.

Join Dr. Tim Grage as he teaches on why praying for light is the key to living in revelation, innovation, and victory.

📖 Scriptures: Isaiah 29:10, Isaiah 56:10, Luke 24:31-32, Genesis 28:16, Jeremiah 17:6, Proverbs 20:13, Ephesians 1:18, 2 Corinthians 4:4

Fire in My Bones | Tongues of Fire

“Then I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay.” — Jeremiah 20:9

Speaking in tongues is not a religious ritual. It is the clear distinction of the believer — our heavenly language that unlocks divine possibilities, releases angelic activity, and bypasses the limitations of human reasoning.

In this teaching, Pastor Tim Grage unpacks the mystery of tongues of fire:

• Why tongues mark the believer’s unique identity.

• How praying in the Spirit bypasses natural knowledge and activates divine intelligence.

• The role of angels in responding to your tongues.

• How tongues sharpen your spiritual sensitivity, release life, overwhelm darkness, and activate the gifts of the Spirit.

• Why Paul admonishes us to pray in tongues always, and how it builds your faith currency in the Spirit.

The believer in Christ is not powerless. You have been given a language from heaven — tongues of fire — to rearrange circumstances, break limitations, and enforce God’s will on the earth.

🔥 Lay hands on that contract, that application, that child, that proposal, and release tongues of fire.

🔥 Build your faith, sharpen your spirit, and walk in the supernatural.

In this final part of our Pool of Bethesda series, we dive into Jesus’ powerful question: “Do you want to be made whole?” (John 5:6). Healing fixes a part of us, but wholeness restores our entire being—spirit, soul, body, relationships, and purpose. God’s desire is not just to remove pain but to transform identity.

Wholeness means living from who Christ says we are, not from what life has broken in us. It requires surrender, trust, and the courage to obey even when inconvenient.

Join me as we uncover how to stop settling for partial fixes and start walking in God’s full restoration.

You don’t have to limp across life’s finish line—God wants every part of you to cross together, complete and whole.
