What kind of prayer would cause the Son of God to be stopped in His tracks? You will find many types of prayer in the gospel of Luke and the eighteenth chapter, but there is only one prayer that caused Jesus to stand still. This type of prayer begins in the heart of a beggar. It's a heart that understands its utter and dyer need. This is the heart that cries out in faith "Jesus Son of David have Mercy on me!" God's responds to this cry because His heart is filled with mercy and grace. We don't have to wrestle a blessing from God.

Whenever the people of God move away from living in a manner that brings glory to His Name, they will find themselves positioned on the wrong side of the battle. What do you do when you find yourself charting your own course because you refused to trust in God's promises? God says if you belong to Him, He will get you out! Suddenly all your new plans, new friends, new truths, new opinions that you formed in the flesh will leave you standing all ALONE on the wrong side of the battle and something will rise up in your heart that says get me out of here! God is calling His church to rise up and go after everything that the enemy has taken from us until we recover all.

People who are acquainted with their weakness know they need something greater than themselves to come out of their condition. If we see beyond our own self perception and discover our weaknesses we'll be led into God's strength. It is God's strength that is made complete in our weakness. We will be taken on a journey into the supernatural through a process of discovering our weaknesses. When we allow God to finger our weaknesses there is a supernatural work being done in our life. God wants our life to be a testimony of His grace and power. All the strength we need is found in Jesus Christ.

When God chose us he wasn’t looking for perfection. He is looking for a people who would respond in faith when He begins to visit our areas of death. Faith is not about thinking optimistically, is it about being quickened by God through His promises and believing that He can bring things that are not into being. DNA tests can reveal who the Father is. Abraham is our Father of Faith. Is there evidence in your walk that Abraham is your father? Can you hope against hope and believe God to fulfill all His promises in your life. What is your spiritual DNA?

This message is for all those who never had the opportunity to go out on the mission field but stayed behind and prayed for the mission. This is a true portrayal of how the body of Christ operates. There are combatants- those who go on the mission and fight in the front lines and there are the congregants - those who stay behind and stand in the gap with militant prayers that bring about the victory. God is calling His church to rest in their calling and to have clean hands and pure hearts so that the love of Jesus will flow through us in the power of the Holy Spirit. If our ministry for Jesus is not fueled by the love of God then what we do counts for nothing. Love is and always will be the more EXCELLENT way!
 

Jesus is looking for an honest heart that desires to know Him and love Him. Jesus knocks at the door of every heart and if you choose to open up to Him, He will come in and begin to cause you to hope in a brand new life. God desires to take you deeper than just feeling good about the bad situations in life. He desires to bring you into His church and connect you to His body so that you will experience the complete revelation of Jesus Christ. You will find Him to be a very special friend who desires to fellowship with us. This is the good news that will lead you into a continual praise!

How well do we know the Holy Spirit? Do we commune with this person of our glorious and loving God? In this sermon, David Wilkerson preaches on the Holy Ghost as a precious gift given to us by Christ's sacrifice. The Spirit leads us to all truth about who Christ is, and he also produces the fruits of righteousness in the lives of believers. He transforms God's children into the image of their Savior; there is no other way to grow into spiritual maturity.

 Have you ever found yourself in such a dark place that you don't see anything of God and it seems like there is no purpose for it? These awful places are where we meet God . It's where He works something very deep in us; something we can't learn from a text book. All of God's future deliverers are prepared in these awful places. These are a people who will emerge out of these vallies of suffering with a testimony of the glory of God. The word of God declares that those who suffer with Christ will also reign with Him. Do you trust God to work all things for the good and bring about a glorious victory?
 

We are living in a generation where the church at large has lost sight of the true purposes and power of God. Many are seeking God for personal gain as opposed to the feeding the hungry. God is calling His church to reach out and touch His heart so that we might be an extension of His heart and hands to a lost generation. He's calling us to be hope for the hopeless and freedom to the captives and food for every hungry heart. This power of God is extended to us through His crucified hands.
