In this midweek message, Pastor Dale teaches on the importance of making use of what has been deposited into our spirit through such means as corporate discipleship, personal study of the Word, the laying on of hands, impartation, and sound words of wisdom and prophecy. Hearing the Word alone is not enough. We must also give action to - "stir up" - the things that we have received by putting them into practice in our daily lives. A seed that lies dormant and unplanted will never produce a harvest. Make FULL use of what you have received.

In this lesson, Pastor Dale teaches on how our declarations of faith are to originate from the realm of faith rather than from the realm of the mind. Simply speaking scripture or making statements of faith mechanically will not produce results. Such declarations have no root in faith and are easily shaken - or even shut down entirely - by reasoning and emotion. Faith is not a feeling in your head based on how you feel at the moment. Faith is a knowing in your spirit based on the eternal Word of God. One real test of faith is what we say when no positive emotions are present. Always declare the Word from the realm of faith regardless of whether you "feel" it or not.

In this lesson, Pastor Dale discusses how declarations of faith not only release our faith into the circumstances we face, but also keep us continually mindful of God’s promises by reminding us of what He has already done and strengthening our expectation of what He will do on our behalf.

In this lesson, Pastor Dale discusses how declarations of faith are to be a consistent part of the believer's daily life, not just one-time events like when we confess salvation. Walking in victory requires talking in faith. If we are to receive anything by faith, our mouths MUST be involved and aligned with the Word of God. Declarations of faith are not limited to quoting scripture. Praise, prayer, and even making melody in our hearts to the Lord can be a way to maintain a continual dialog of faith and fellowship with the Father throughout the day. What we say - both outwardly and inwardly - matters. Keep the declaration of victory proceeding from your mouth!

In this message, Pastor Dale teaches on the importance of confessing with our mouths what we are believing for by faith. A declaration of faith is more than the physical act of just saying something out loud for the sake of saying it or simply because we know doing so is "the right thing to do" as a believer. A true declaration of faith is taking God's Word boldly into your mouth so that you become His voice in the earth, speaking His truth and authority against the enemy. By doing so, we give voice to what God has already spoken. Because His Word cannot return void, we can expect victory when we stand in faith and declare His will over our circumstances.

In this lesson, Pastor Dale teaches on how the name of Jesus is a tool to be used by believers, NOT a trophy to be put on a shelf. Many people speak the name of Jesus but do so without an understanding of the authority and covenant rights invested in that name. They do not exercise the authority it represents. Simply saying the name is not enough. It is faith in who Jesus is and an understanding of the authority He has delegated that releases the power of His name into a believer’s life.

In this lesson, Pastor Dale teaches on the importance of not only honoring the Bible as God's Word, but also reading and recognizing it as His covenant. When we move beyond seeing the Bible only as divinely-inspired teachings, principles, and historical accounts, and begin to view it as a book filled with God's legally binding, covenant with us, everything changes. As believers, our confidence rests on God’s faithfulness and His unchanging promises. Because we are in covenant with Him, we can boldly declare His Word and rest assured that we have His help.

In this lesson, Pastor Dale discusses the help provided to the believer through the blood of Jesus. The power of the blood of Christ did not stop at Calvary. The same blood that saved us continues to work on our behalf throughout our earthly lives. When we maintain a constant awareness of the blood, we keep ourselves in position to receive of the help it provides. The blood has never - and will never - lose its power. However, it is up to us to believe in and apply it each and every day.

In this midweek message, Pastor Mikaela teaches on the importance of being prepared to receive the provision of God. God instructed the widow in 2 Kings to make ready for His miraculous provision by borrowing empty jars from her neighbors. Then He multiplied what was already in her house - a single jar of oil - so much so that it filled every vessel she had gathered. However, God's provision could go no further than the number of jars that were prepared and waiting. As believers, we must also prepare for the provision of God by having our spiritual jars ready by faith. God's nature is one of overflow - but to experience overflow requires a waiting vessel.

In this lesson, Pastor Dale teaches on the importance of exercising spiritual discernment to determine the source of the words we receive into our lives and the spirits and motives behind them. The motive of the enemy is always to move believers away from the plan and purposes of God. Not only will Satan weaponize the words spoken over us by others, he will also attempt to use against us the words we say to ourselves. Regular fellowship with God and reliance on the unction of the Holy Spirit within us is key to discerning whose voice is speaking to us. Recognizing a counterfeit voice is much easier when we are familiar with the voice - and the Words - of our Heavenly Father.
