Any encounter with God is an invitation into a lifestyle with Him. It is the gateway to living in the fullness of His inheritance.He initiates; we respond. He entices us into encounters by sending His Word to us...by talking to us.His Words are Spirit & they are life. His words add life to anything He has ordained...and confront anything He didn't. Therefore, obedience to His voice either brings peace to our lives or the sword of confrontation.Bible Reading:2 Corinthians 1:18-22; 1 Peter 2:6-10

Holy Spirit was sent to make us like Jesus. In our Bible reading, you will find the attitude Jesus demonstrated while He was here on the earth. He came to serve His Father's purposes. He came to be the ransom payment so that you & I could be reconciled back to God.All the benefits of grace flow through relationship with Daddy God. And the only way to remain in proper relationship with Him is to be a "worshipper"!We are becoming jealous for Him to get the attention that He deserves!There is no room for "humanism" or "selfishness" in the hearts of those who know & love their God.There is a shift taking place where we have decided that, "if it matters to God, it matters to me"!Bible Reading:Philippians 2:1-11

George Orwell once said, “In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”Jesus said, in John 8:31-31, “If you continue in My Word, then you are truly My disciples; and you will know the truth & the truth will make you free.”Deception is not simply the speaking of lies…it is the partnership between a stronghold in our heart & a lie that is spoken. It causes things that are untrue to “feel” or “seem” true.The measuring line of truth does not move or evolve. Holy Spirit, aka “THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH”, is the cure for deception.Bible Reading:Galatians 3; 2 Corinthians 4:4; James 1:13-18; 2 Timothy 4:1-5; John 16:13

Mandy takes us inside the heart of an intercessor & leads us in pursuit of "complete freedom". Anything less that what Jesus provided with His death & resurrection is not "complete freedom".

In John, Jesus reveals that the Father gives us His Spirit "without measure". What that infers is that you and I determine how much of Him we get. Therefore, our willingness or unwillingness to respond to Him communicates the measure that we desire from Him. After all, He did say that those who hunger and thirst for righteousness would be filled.The magic of His Kingdom is attracted to response to His voice.Bible Reading:Psalm 46:4; Ezekiel 47:1-12; John 3:1-8

When God stooped down and created man, He didn't just create man, He "fashioned" man. Taking the dust from the ground, He made a completely new being from all other created things. He created something magical, beautiful beyond others and uniquely in His own image...BUT man wasn't activated or animated until God breathed His very own breathe of life into him.It is exactly the same with Holy Spirit. We become a new creation when we say, "YES" to God and are "saved", but we are not "ACTIVATED" until Holy Spirit breathes upon us and lives in us. Holy Spirit does not momentarily turn us into another person, like in the days of the Old Testament; He transforms us into another person!Bible Reading:Acts 1:1-8

God's Kingdom is the most magical kingdom of all...after all, He is the most magical King of all.So, what is "magic"? 1. Miracles Happen 2. Nothing is Impossible 3. Dreams Come TrueMagic is here, because the King & His Kingdom is here!Bible Reading:John 14:7-15; Ephesians 4:30; 1 Thessalonians 5:19

What happens when we have thoughts or moods that aren't authored by God? We can either surrender to their influence OR we can shift the atmosphere by responding in the Spirit of Heaven.If we will consistently release the Spirit of Heaven, regardless of the atmosphere or spirit we are confronted with, God will give us the influence in the room because He knows we will release Heaven on earth.Bible Reading:Isaiah 11:1-3; 1 Peter 3:8-12

Our thoughts can either be a fortress or a temple. A fortress is built to keep something out...a Temple is built to invite something in.We have been given the mind of Christ! Thinking the way He thinks is the key to living as the new creation He died to make us.Bible Reading:Ephesians 5:1-2, 8-10; 2 Corinthians 10:3-5
