"Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." (James 4:7)

Spiritual warfare is the enemy's attempt to rob you of the abundant life Jesus came to give. In part two of Winning Spiritual Battles, Pastor Ron Termale shows that our authority doesn't come from our own goodness but from Jesus and the Holy Spirit living in us. We submit to God by deepening our worship and asking the Holy Spirit to empower us, and we resist the devil by knowing his schemes and speaking God's Word against him. Some of our greatest victories are won on our knees.

Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 2:11, Ephesians 6:11, Mark 16:17, Matthew 16:18–19, James 4:7, 1 John 4:8, 1 Corinthians 13:4–7, Acts 1:8, Acts 19:1–6, John 8:44, 2 Corinthians 11:14, Revelation 12:10, John 10:10

"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." (Ephesians 6:12)

Not everything is the devil, but some battles are spiritual. In part one of Winning Spiritual Battles, Pastor Ron Termale helps us awaken our spiritual senses to recognize when the enemy is making a play against our faith, family, and future. From David's giants to Moses facing Og, we see that attacks often come right before a breakthrough, and we learn four signs of a spiritual attack: heavy temptation, heightened negative emotions, healthy relationships under attack, and prayer and church becoming a bother. God gives His people victory over the giants in the land.

Scriptures: Ephesians 6:12, 1 Peter 5:8–9, 2 Samuel 21:17, Deuteronomy 3:2, 1 Corinthians 10:13, Hebrews 13:17, Romans 12:11

In this message from our Freedom Series, discover what Jesus meant when He promised that believers would do “greater things” (John 14:12).

God didn’t save you just to survive, He filled you with His Holy Spirit so you can live with purpose, freedom, and lasting impact. If you’ve been feeling stuck, discouraged, or like there’s more to life, this message is for you.

Be sure to listen, and share it with someone who needs to hear it.

"Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom." (2 Corinthians 3:17)

At midnight in a Philippian jail, Paul and Silas prayed and sang hymns to God, and everything changed. In this message from the Freedom Series, Pastor Ron Termale shows that encounters with the Holy Spirit are what set us free from prisons of sin, hurt, addiction, fear, and dead religion, and move us from knowing about God to living wholeheartedly for Him. We don't encounter God through empty ceremony but by crying out to Him, boldly worshipping, and asking the Holy Spirit to fill us. It's a call to leave lukewarm faith behind and believe God for a fresh move in Rhode Island.

Scriptures: Acts 16:22–34, 2 Corinthians 3:17, Luke 11:13, 1 Timothy 4:1, James 4:2

"Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me." (Psalm 51:10–11)

The Holy Spirit is moving, and He brings freedom. In this message launching the Freedom Series, Pastor Ron Termale shares his own first encounter with the Holy Spirit and stories of healing and revival, and shows what happens when God's presence fills us: faith, joy, hope, love for others, and the power to turn from sin. Like David, we cry out for God's presence, because without the Holy Spirit there is no life. Whatever you need today, the Spirit and the bride say, "Come!"
