Jesus learned obedience by the things He suffered and when He completed His ministry he became the author of Salvation to all who obey Him. There is a deposit of authority that is given to us and that authority comes from Jesus Christ. Jesus is the author of all authority because of who He is and what He has done for us.

Spiritual defeat is contrary to the word of God. It is the seed of Satan that works its way into the mind before it becomes a physical reality, but for the heart that can embrace this: God says, “I have turned to you in mercy; I have brought you home to me, and my dwelling place in you shall be built”. God has a predetermined design of what He intends to do in and through our lives. This work is started and completed by our Mater Carpenter Jesus Christ and His intentions are to design His church to become carpenters after His own heart. No devil can destroy this divine work.

This message is not just about marriage, it also considers the sprit that is prevalent in the earth today. This spirit separates and divides nations and people. This is a violent spirit that brings a violent pain as we as humans begin to close our spirits and shut out one another. God will expose this spirit for the purpose of destroying it. The destruction will come as we chose to walk in unity. It is through a unified body that God will command His blessing.

Considering talents are the promises and provisions of God, have you hid the talents that He deposited in you because of unbelief? God will deposit in us what we need to empower us to bring glory and honor to His name. The more we step forward in faith the more you will notice that God wants you to go back to the first gifts He deposited into you and ask Him to resurrect the very first deposit that He placed in you.

When God sends us through hard times it is because He is investing His life in us. The very essence of our faith is to trust that everything God does is good  — the hard times, the times we don’t understand, and the uncomfortable times. Trusting in the goodness of God will allow us to go through any situation with a supernatural peace and we will come out understanding His purpose for our lives.

In our times of testing we have a tendency to look inward becoming numb and we begin to drift away from the Lord. God promises to bring us out in total victory but we have to stay in the fight and allow faith to move us away from our own problems. We are to look away from self and consider the need and suffering of those around us reaching out to them with the love of Jesus. Jesus said “if you love me feed my sheep”!
