We think our ministry is about us, but our ministry according to God's standard is what you are supposed to do to serve and help and bless others. You and I all have an assignment to serve other people, and God is saying, "Fulfill your ministry!" He's given all of us gifts and talents for one reason - to bless other people!

We're going to have to make an account for what we do with all that He's given us.

Jesus is coming to settle accounts!

There's a fighting style for us to learn.

Float like a butterfly - SURRENDER.

Sting like a bee - FIGHT.

We always want the Joshua 6 moment, but not so much the Joshua 5 moment.

In order for Joshua to get instruction, he had to get on his face, take off his shoes in surrender.

We have to surrender every day, picking up our cross, even when the plan is weird.

The Son of God, the Son of Man will appear in the Eastern sky, right before our eyes.

And BAM! In a moment, we will be changed from mortal to immortal, from dying to never dying.

There is a day coming that Jesus will appear, and He will sit on His throne, and like a shepherd, He will separate the sheep from the goats. We will give an account to Jesus for our life lived unto Him.

We've all been given an assignment from God to PREACH, to DECLARE the WORD! We must be more concerned about someone's eternity than we are about our feelings. We must teach the truth publicly, whether it's convenient and favorable, or it's inconvenient and unfavorable, whether culture says it's good or not.

Jesus is coming back!

Is Jesus the King of your life?

When He separates you, will He separate you as a sheep or a goat?

Be READY! PREACH THE WORD! STICK TO THE TRUTH!

GO FIND SOMEONE & TELL THEM TO COME & SEE JESUS!

Roads Church - we must not neglect our assignment that God has given to plant churches. Time is running short, and people need to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ, and the power of Holy Spirit. The world needs the truth! God is reminding us - Don't forget what you were called to do!

FIND someone who hasn't seen what you've seen, and SHOW them what you've seen! That they may never un-see! We have to find people, and give them the hope of Jesus Christ. This is why God has called us to go out and plant churches and to reach people in other communities. It's not about us! We're building His Kingdom - not ours.

Who is the last Nathaniel that you've said, "Come and see what I have seen about Jesus. He has changed my life"?

Who is the last Philip, the last Simon, the last Nathaniel that you've brought to see Jesus?

Church we have taken scripture that was meant for a specific people, with a specific issue, during a specific time, and used it in 2024 as God's law, rather than recognizing it is the law and tradition of man.

There are no laws according to God that says that women cannot speak in church. Paul did not contradict himself in 1 Corinthians chapter 14 and chapter 11.

Women - you have the same access & right to the promises of Abraham as heirs of Christ, as the men do. We must stop comparing ourselves with one another, pushing one another down. We must be secure in who we are in Christ.

Be secure Woman! Be Secure Man! You must be who God called you to be.

Perseverance in PRAYER!

The WORD becoming who we are!

DISCIPLINE to put God first!

Jesus well equipped us to be victorious and overcome! But like the disciples in the Garden of Gethsemane with Jesus, our spirit is willing, but our flesh is weak. They could not pray even one hour, but instead fell asleep. We can be on our devices or watch a ball game for hours, but it's uncomfortable to pray for an hour. Our discipline to build up our spirit to be strong is in PRAYER & the WORD. The Lord wants to prepare us for what is coming, so we are ready for it, and not just reacting to it when it comes that we would be victorious, and a refuge of people that holds the TRUTH. Are you willing to makes prayer & intercession and the will of God number 1 in your life?

Newsflash - Moses didn’t build the Tabernacle.

Bazalel and Aholiab did!

God put wisdom, skill/talent inside of them to build it.

And God has put talent inside of each of us for His purpose to reveal or make known through the gospel the life that does not end.

Talent is your God-given ability.

We all have the same God-given purpose - it’s His purpose, but we all have different appointments based on our talents.

When we have an understanding of our TALENT - what we can and cannot be the best at, and develop it to give God our best in pursuit of our purpose - OUR GREEN, then everywhere people go, they will see the light shining on the God kind of life that never ends - at the lumber yard, in the grocery store, sitting in the dentist chair . . .

God wants to purify our mouths - what we say, how we say it, in our relationships, in our workplaces, in our homes. What comes out of our mouth should bring edification.

We live in the most critical culture and time - today. The devil is the accuser, and being critical and accusatory is operating in darkness. The enemy will use accusation to tear up the Church. Judgement will come to the Church first. Search our hearts Lord for any place that we operate in criticism and accusation that needs to be purified, so that what comes out of my mouth would bring edification.

Malachi 3:2, John 8:6-11, Proverbs 4:23, Luke 6:45, Psalm 139:23-24

God has saved us AND CALLED us.

God is calling everyone, but not everyone will fulfill the calling.

Too many people are ignoring God’s call.

God’s invitation to us is according to His purposes. It’s greater than what we do for our job to make a living. It’s vital that we know where our purpose comes from; it comes from God, and it’s about what He wants to do in the Earth to bring all of creation into His Kingdom.

He is blowing up your phone inviting you to live a life that is dedicated to Him, devoted to Him, and set apart to Him - HOLY UNTO HIM.

When we submit to His purpose, everything that He created you to do on the inside, will be fulfilled. No one will fulfill their true purpose in life without Jesus. Your true purpose is In Him.

Paul wrote to the church at Corinth for the purpose of speaking about the expectation of being in harmonious relationships and unity in the house of God, and then instructed them with how that is accomplished in light of using the gifts to bring Edification, Unity & Peace.

The Church should be:

Speaking in tongues ✓

Interpreting in certain situations ✓

Prophesying ✓

Desiring spiritual gifts ✓

Not forbidding speaking in tongues ✓

All things done decently and in order ✓

We must trust God to let Him say what is "decent" and "in order" and not our tradition.

If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things which I write to you are the commandments of the Lord.But if anyone is ignorant, let him be ignorant.Therefore, brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak with tongues. Let all things be done decently and in order. I Corinthians 14:37-40 NKJV
