In this lesson, Pastor Dale teaches on how living in the fullness of God is made available to every believer. However, the degree to which we experience this is up to us and is directly connected to how we live in two main areas of our lives: the Word and the Spirit. The Word and Spirit work together in the life of the believer - and we must live full of both. Balance in each is crucial, as any attempt to partake of one without the other will result in less than fullness.

In this lesson, Brother Mike Hensley teaches on the importance believers sharing their testimonies of God's goodness with others. As the redeemed of the Lord, we have something to be excited about. We need to speak openly of our experiences with God, confessing with our mouths what He has done, not just amongst the saved, but with the unsaved as well.

In this lesson, Pastors Dale and Patty conclude the series by discussing how factors such as unbelief, unforgiveness, and lack of patience can cause our faith to fall short. We must make the choice to believe what God's Word says is true and refuse to allow things such as tradition, mental reasonings, and offense move us away from the truth that we know. We must stand firm in our faith and keep pressing forward. An active faith produces endurance, and an enduring faith produces results!

In this lesson, Pastors Dale and Patty teach on how faith goes beyond simply hearing and believing. Faith calls for action. Often, the shortcoming of faith lies not in the hearing or confessing, but in the action (or lack thereof) that follows. In every battle of faith there is a required corresponding action. We must discern what that action is in our own situation and respond accordingly.

In this lesson, Pastors Dale and Patty teach on the importance of guarding against distractions to your faith. The enemy often uses the "facts" of certain situations and circumstances to pull our attention away from the truth of the Word. When we allow our focus to shift back and forth from what the Word says to what the issues of life and even our thought lives are saying, doubt, unrest, strife, struggle and, eventually, wavering faith, will soon follow. In order to maintain strong, active, effective faith, we must be single-minded, NOT double-minded. Focused, undistracted faith stands its ground, stays on course, and gets results.

In this lesson, Pastors Dale and Patty talk about the importance of speaking your faith. Many believers go through the process of building and strengthening their faith through hearing and hearing the Word, yet still do not see what they are believing for manifest. Why? Because faith is not activated in the hearing alone. Having one’s reservoir filled with the Word is not enough. We must also release our faith by boldly using our voices to declare, proclaim, decree, and establish the Word.

In this lesson, Pastors Dale and Patty discuss the importance of keeping a steady flow of the Word going into our hearts in order to build up and strengthen our faith in advance of times of need. Without deposits there can be no withdrawals. Just as we cannot pull money from an empty bank account, we cannot pull faith from an empty heart.

In this introductory lesson, Pastor Dale discusses the importance role of faith in the life of the believer. Biblical faith cannot be overemphasized, as it is forms the foundation of our salvation, creates the framework for our identity in Christ, and empowers us to walk victoriously in the plan and provision of God. Faith is not passive, nor is it positive thinking or simply a feeling. Faith is a lifestyle and a spiritual force that always has manifestation as its goal, and we must be cautious to not allow shortcomings to hinder us from receiving the fullness of our victory. As believers, we are not called to be short distance sprinters or to settle with only a measure. We are called to run with endurance and WIN.

In this lesson, Pastor Dale teaches on how the key to experiencing the benefits of any spiritual reset lies in being obedient to the leadings of the Lord during the process. While the Lord is the One who initiate these resets in our lives, the success of those resets is dependent on whether or not we choose to obey and implement the changes that He directs. Obedience is our responsibility - and our choice. To walk the fulness of all God has planned for us, we must be quick to hear His voice and follow His lead. By doing so, we position ourselves to not only receive the benefit of the reset itself, but also the blessing associated with being obedient to the Lord.

In this lesson, Pastor Dale teaches on how the atmosphere around us has a significant influence on our emotional, mental, and spiritual health. That impact can be either positive or negative depending on the atmosphere's pervading tone. As believers, we must accurately discern the atmosphere of the places we frequent and the people with whom we fellowship. We cannot expect to remain unaffected when we choose to stay immersed in environments charged with fear, doubt, strife, anger, or the like or maintain close relationships with those who perpetuate negativity. Where and with whom we spend our time has a direct impact on our ability to walk in victory. Choose wisely and be willing to initiate atmosphere resets when necessary.
