Welcome to the Best is Yet to Come with Pastor Brad Morgan. This week Rick Morgan fills in for Pastor Brad and shares the message: "God Has a Knack."

The word “Knack” is defined as:  “an acquired or natural skill at performing a task.”  --“An acquired or natural skill at performing a task.”  Isn’t that interesting. What this says to me is that God has the natural skill, and we have the acquired skill through the Holy Spirit that lives within us.

But even before Jesus’ crucifiction on the cross and the subsequent release of the Holy Spirit to His believers, God was giving people skills to perform a task. He did this with David defeating Goliath in 1 Samuel 17:34-37, and again with the Isrealites bringing down the walls of Jerico in Joshua 6:1-27.

God showed his "Knack" throughout the Old and New Testament.

Are you ready to have enough faith by simply hearing to believe? God says in Romans 10:17: “So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”

This is not an optional way to live as a Christian. It is the truth. And truth, I believe, is expressed to us by God freely … deeply engrained faith comes through practice and life experience.

Prayer is practice: Listening to God is practice: Be still in your prayer and listen to Him.

Reading the Word is practice: there is not a situation in your life or the world that is not revealed in the Word of God. Open up your bible, ask Him to show you.

And through this “practice” you will gain life experience. Experience in your life where you can definitively say: “God got me through this before, I have no worries.” Remember the things God has done in your life and cling to them in times good and bad.

Rember, God Has a Knack.

Welcome to the Best is Yet to Come with Pastor Brad Morgan. Today Pastor Brad speaks on the subject of turn around - God is a God that can turn things around.

Daniel 2:20-22 says, "Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, For wisdom and might are His.

And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise And knowledge to those who have understanding. He reveals deep and secret things; He knows what is in the darkness, And light dwells with Him." God changes times and seasons. He also reveals deep and hidden things. Jeremiah 33:3 says, "Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know." Jeremiah 29:11-14 further shows how God is working in the believers life (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Jeremiah+29%3A11-14&version=NKJV). God has plans - even more than one plan.

Pastor Brad continues teaching from the scriptures:

Isaiah 40:4-5 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Isaiah+40%3A4-5&version=NKJV).

Your turn around could be slow, you may need time to adjust, but yet God is working. Exodus 23:30 says, "Little by little I will drive them out from before you, until you have increased, and you inherit the land."

God wants to grant a turn around in your life.

Welcome to the Best is Yet to Come with Pastor Brad Morgan. This week Pastor Brad continues his teaching on The Holy Spirit.

In the Old Testament the Holy Spirit came upon the Prophet, the Priest and the King. The Holy Spirit came upon people to do special things. In the New Testamant, the Holy Spirit is available to endwell us and also to come upon us in power for service.

Pastor Brad begins teaching from John 7:37-39 s(https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=john+7%3A37-39&version=NKJV) Luke 24:49-52 shows the disciples actually doing this. (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=luke+24%3A49-52&version=NKJV)

In Mark 16:15-20, Jesus explains how the Holy Spirit will work in the believers life (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark+16%3A15-20&version=NKJV). These verses describe the power of the Holy Spirit that is given to believers. Matthew 28:18-20 tells how believers should use the Holy Spirit to "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations ...,."(https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+28%3A18-20&version=NKJV).

Pastor Brad continues teaching from John 20 and 21 about the release of the Holy Spirit. 

Remember the scripture says, "for all that are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God."

Welcome to the Best is Yet to Come with Pastor Brad Morgan. This week Pastor Brad message is on The Holy Spirit.

Pastor Brad begins his teaching in Isaiah 40:27-31 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=isaiah+40%3A27-31&version=NKJV). When you go through things that seem unjust or unfair do not doubt the goodness of God. God is real and faithful. We can trust Him. He is an everlasting God that has always been around. God does not get tired or weary. God gives power to the weak. He increases strength. No matter how weary you are, if you put your hope in the Lord your strength will be renewed. Remind yourselves of all the times God has been faithful in your life. There is a grace of God that is available for you to tap into through faith.

Pastor Brad continues teaching from Psalm 92:8-15 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=psalms+92%3A8-15&version=NKJV).

God has an annointing for your life - fresh annointing. There is a freshness in the Spirit of God. Declare that you have been annointed with fresh oil. We need the Spirit of God. We need the refreshing of God. We need the strength of God. We need a fresh annointing on our life.

Welcome to the Best is Yet to Come with Pastor Brad Morgan. This week Pastor Brad continues his message: What Are You Doing Here?

Pastor Brad reviewed how Elijah had birthed God's promise that there would be an abundance of rain through prayer and belief. Subsequently Elijah had to go through a suffering in this. With the birthing there had to be a preparation for it. 

Many times when there is going to be a transition in our life, there has to be a crisis. A crisis is a hidden opportunity and an opportunity to discover who Christ is. One of the biggest enemies that are a part of a crisis is time -- but God is outside of time, He is eternal. Just because there is a delay, there is not a denial. God is ahead of the devil. God is all-knowing.

God told Elijah to take care of his physical needs (1 Kings 19:5 "Then as he lay and slept under a broom tree, suddenly an angel touched him, and said to him, “Arise and eat.”). God does things suddenly. When we are in a season of transition, we have to learn how to feed ourselves spiritually.

God taught Elijah that he was not the only one serving the Lord (1 Kings 19:15-17 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+kings+19%3A15-17&version=NKJV). There were many. God told Elijah that He was going to use him to release a generational blessing to be passed upon others.

God is calling you into a new season and he has the answer to "What Are You Doing Here."

Welcome to the Best is Yet to Come with Pastor Brad Morgan. This week Pastor Brad continues his message: What Are You Doing Here?

Pastor Brad reviewed how Elijah had birthed God's promise that there would be an abundance of rain through prayer and belief. Subsequently Elijah had to go through a suffering in this. With the birthing there had to be a preparation for it. When God wants to do something in our lives there has to be a preparation on the inside so we will be prepared and the blessing won't be wasted (1 Kings 18:46).

Whenever you have a breakthrough, you can expect to have an attack from the enemy. 1 Kings 19:1-9 illustrates this (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+kings+19%3A1-9&version=NKJV). God saved him in this instance, He sent an angel that said "arise and eat". 

We have to sometimes take the time to rest, eat, feed on God, feed on prayer and listen to ministry. Once you get through this time, there will come an unusual season of refreshing from the presence of the Lord. If you have come through an unusual season of testing, you can expect and unusual season of refreshing.

God is calling you into a new season and he has the answer to "What Are You Doing Here."

Welcome to the Best is Yet to Come with Pastor Brad Morgan. This week Pastor Brad asks the question: What Are You Doing Here?

When God asks you a question, it is a good thing to listen. 1 Kings 19 tells of the struggle Elijah went through for the word the Lord had given him that there would be no rain. Elijah was made to go on the run. Elijah was on the run and while hiding in a cave in 1 Kings 19:9, God asked him "what are you doing here, Elijah?"

The Lord gave a word to Elijah. 1 Kings 18:41 says, "Then Elijah said to Ahab, “Go up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of abundance of rain.” Elijah's promise was being manifested. Whenever we are called to birth a miracle there is a part that we can do, and there is a part that God can do. Third part of a miracle is that we have to make preparation. Pastor Brad continues teaching about 1 Kings 18 and how Elijah believed God's promise.

Faith is now, hope is in the future. God is leading us into a new way of doing things. Prepare yourself for the things God is going to do in your life. 1 Corinthians 16:8-9 says, "But I will tarry in Ephesus until Pentecost. For a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries." It is a massive, huge and effective door. It is a door of activity and supernatural energy.

God has a unique door with your name on it. God has a unique door for each individual and your annointing. There is going to be resistance. Think in a different way and adjust as God brings you into new places you have not walked before.

Why are you here?

Welcome to the Best is Yet to Come with Pastor Brad Morgan. This week Pastor Brad continues his message that encourages you to Aim For More Than Enough.

God says that He will do exceedingly abuntly, beyond all that we can ask or think according to the power of God that works on the inside of us. 3 John 2 says, "Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers."

God is breaking the spirit of delay off of Pastor Brad's life and ministry. Additionally God is sending unusual finances from unlikely sources. The story of Lazurus in John 10 shows this - "if you would believe you would see."

Genesis 13 tells the story of Abram and Lot seperating. Pastor Brad points out that when God wants to bring you into something new, into something you have never walked in before, there will be a seperation from other things.

Do not just walk by sight. Ask the Lord. The Lord wants to bless you in many ways. Don't settle, aim for more than enough. 

In 2 Kings chapter 4 a certain woman asked Elisha for his help. He instructed her to fill jars with oil, sell them to pay off her debt and then keep the rest. She had many jars to fill (and only because she ran out of jars did the oil run out). 

You have something inside. The Lord has given you abilities. God wants to do creative things in your life in the area of provision. God wants to join his "super" with your "natural" and when that happens it will be supernatural and know that God is a God of more than enough.

Welcome to the Best is Yet to Come with Pastor Brad Morgan. This week's message encourages you to Aim For More Than Enough.

God is breaking the spirit of delay off of Pastor Brad's life and ministry. Additionally God is sending unusual finances from unlikely sources. Pastor Brad recounts the story of Elijah and the abundance of rain.  

The supply may not come in the way you think. 1 Corinthians 16:9 says, "For a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries." There is an open door, but you are still going to have adversaries. These advarsaries are going to cause you to go into a walk you have never gone into before. Revelation 4:1 says, "After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, “Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.”" God has been opening heaven to people since the beginning of time.

God has an abundance. God has more than enough. The open door is a door of Spirit and regeration. God doesn't work on just recovering the all, God works on recovering more than enough.

See the open doors and confront the doors that have been closed. We are in a season that the Lord has opened a door to walk through and aim for more than enough.

Welcome to the Best is Yet to Come with Pastor Brad Morgan. This week Pastor Brad continues speaking about promises God has on our lives and assures us that The Promise is Within Reach. You may be in the midst of a difficult season in your life, but you are on the verge of significant change and that change is within reach. These promisses of God are going to manifest because of his great love for us individually.

Isaiah 54:3 says, "For you shall expand to the right and to the left, And your descendants will inherit the nations, And make the desolate cities inhabited. Don't limit what God can do. Do not fear, this is your year!

It is important to forget the shame of your youth. The love of God is deep within your heart. You are a lost closer to the promise of God than you think. 

Review the things God has spoken to your life.

Pastor Brad continues by speaking about the gift of the Spirit to speak in tongues. 1 Corinthians 14:13-15 says, "Therefore let him who speaks in a tongue pray that he may interpret. For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful. What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding."

Love your neigbors and bless those who hate you (Matthew 5:43-45 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=matthew+5%3A43-45&version=NKJV). God has given us a new heart and there is a grace to forgive and love.

Finally, Pray to forgive yourself!

The promise is within reach because of God and His great love.
