Being in a room alone does not mean we are in solitude. Being in a room full of people does not mean that we are in fellowship. We are unfortunately in an age that does not value an unhurried life or a soul that is at peace and unweary. As Jesus followers, we get to move at His pace. The world says we must be hurried and rushed in order to fulfill the “American Dream”, but as Jesus followers that’s […]

When we try to describe Jesus, there are many different ways to describe Him, but isn’t He beautiful? What makes things look beautiful to us is contrast, yet we tend to try to pretend the “ugly” doesn’t exist. Jesus is the One who weeps outside the tomb of Lazarus but wipes away every tear. Contrast. We desire beautiful things, that’s why we spend money or time trying to attain beautiful things. Cost is determined by desire. Jesus has a desire […]

We tend to want the power of God but forget to develop God’s character. Pastor Jacob spoke about fasting in the previous message, but this time he is talking about what we put into our minds.

Fasting. We are so used to satisfying every hunger pang that we have. The implications of doing that without an actual break tells us that we are a slave to our desires. Our culture is centered around self-gratification. Fasting is a counter culture activity. This is not restricted to food, by the way. A fruit of the Holy Spirit is self-control, not self-gratification. You are not your desire, that’s not where your identity lies. You are not your feelings, that’s […]

There are many things that happen in life that we have no answers for. When the unexplainable happens, it can be absolutely devastating to the human heart. Then, when brokenness goes unresolved, it leads to a negative harvest in our lives. It is essential to guard our hearts with all diligence and to turn to Jesus when faced with brokenness. He is always faithful to walk us through hard times and to lead us into wholeness of heart.

The word stronghold has a negative air around it, but it doesn’t have to be heard as a negative word all the time. We need to build good strongholds, specifically of the Holy Spirit. We think that if we try harder to do better, but we don’t work on the strongholds in our hearts, it will become striving instead of an action from grace. Prayer is so important in drawing close to Jesus, learning His heart, and dwelling in His […]

What kind of warfare are we to engage in? What are “Strongholds”? How do we destroy the wrong strongholds? Pastor Jacob brings the answers to these questions from the Word of God. Strongholds are misunderstood, so destroying something you don’t understand might be pretty hard when you don’t know what the Word says about them. There are strongholds that we NEED. We need a fortress of Holy Spirit–of Truth. We need a stronghold of Truth to defend our minds against […]
