We Are Not A Secular Nation - Mike Crane by Forward Church Sermons

You don't need to re-order the spiritual world to receive the things that are yours in Christ. You do not need to go into the "courts of heaven" and plead cases and come out with victories that Jesus has already won. Everything God has to give you is in Christ, and Christ is in you. Today we'll discuss the dynamics of the heart in walking in the things Jesus paid for. We pray this message equips you to rest in Christ's finished work and experience what God has given you in Christ.

We are in a battle, but the battle is for the hearts and minds of people. Our spiritual enemy has already been vanquished. He only has the power of deception. The way we win a nation or a single individual is not by fighting the devil, it’s by announcing the victory that’s already ours in Christ. Join us today as we discuss how to war from victory, not for victory.

We are more than mere humans, we have the same authority over the earthly realm that Christ has now that He lives in us. The real-world application of such a radical idea can only be understood spiritually, which simply means to be life minded. Join us today as we sort through the big idea of our authority in Christ.

There’s a lot of fear and uncertainty about the future in the world today. Most people are expecting the world to get worse due to the power of the enemy. But the church is powerful, we have the capacity to spread the kingdom of God and see his glory overtake the strategies of the enemy. It’s time for the church to step into its authority and show the world who God really is.

I pray that the sharing of your faith may become effective by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus. - Philemon 6

The Apostle Paul prays that you become more effective in sharing the Gospel. He says that acknowledging every good thing that’s in you in Christ Jesus is what makes you more effective. Today we discuss those good things that are in you and how that makes you more effective.

I pray that the sharing of your faith may become effective by the acknowledgment of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus. - Philemon 6

Christians whose theology is rooted in the finished work of Christ still have a tendency to get into the flesh when it comes to spiritual matters. We lead people to break curses, repent for hidden sins, break soul ties, rebuke spirits, etc. to obtain things that are already ours in Christ. Join us today and learn how to leave the realm of dead works concerning deliverance, inner healing, forgiveness, and healing from trauma.

Acts of the flesh are easy to spot. Dead works are not so easy because they might look like good works outwardly but have improper motives inwardly. Checking your motives makes it easier to repent from dead works. Spiritual dead works are harder to recognize because they look and sound spiritual but are actually based in the flesh or self-effort. Join us today and learn how to always be rooted in the finished work of Christ in all matters of salvation, deliverance and healing.

We are created to do good works, but we are to repent from dead works. Thanks for joining us today.
