Prophecy Creates Momentum
Words of edification and exhortation are meant to create a momentum within us. These words speak directly to our identity and they tell us exactly how we’re known in heaven. They can provide keys that propel us into our next chapter so that we don’t have to keep repeating the current one.
Key Scriptures:
+ 1 Corinthians 14:1-5. Pursue love, yet earnestly desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy. For the one who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people, but to God; for no one understands, but in his spirit he speaks mysteries. But the one who prophesies speaks to people for edification, exhortation, and comfort…
+ John 15:11. These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full.

The Prophecy of Scripture
This podcast explores how Scripture reveals God's true nature, our identity in Christ, and provides guidance. It discusses the significance of relationships and highlights biblical references on God's predetermined purpose. It also delves into the comforting idea that God had plans for us before we were born, and the importance of personalized prophecies. Additionally, it emphasizes the need to personalize scripture as an inheritance and the significance of scripture in shaping our identity and calling.

The Power of the New Covenant
Jesus didn't come to simply patch up the old covenant. He came to replace it entirely. While the old covenant relied on sacrifices, rules, and striving for righteousness, the new covenant is all about Jesus — who perfectly fulfilled the law on our behalf. Now, our salvation is a gift, and sanctification isn't about earning it through our performance. It's about embracing our identity in Christ and growing in His likeness.
Key Scriptures:
+ Hebrews 8:6. But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, to the extent that He is also the mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises.
+ Hebrew 8:13. When He said, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. But whatever is becoming obsolete and growing old is about to disappear.
+ Romans 6:10. For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all time; but the life that He lives, He lives to God.
+ Ephesians 4:20-24. But you did not learn Christ in this way, if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught in Him, just as truth is in Jesus, that, in reference to your former way of life, you are to rid yourselves of the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit, and that you are to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth.

The End of Powerless Christianity
Legalism depicts God as distant, harsh, joyless, and uninvolved in our lives in any meaningful way. It tells us that He doesn’t talk to us about our future. He doesn’t heal anymore. The most we can hope for is going to church and paying our tithes. But the good news is that Jesus has become our guarantee of a better covenant.

Freedom From Performance
God is determined to free us from legalism and to empower us to understand the fullness of freedom that belongs to us in Christ. The heart of God is to see us unbound, completely free, and able to walk with Him without being subject to any rules and regulations created by man.
Key Scriptures:
+ Romans 13:8-10. Owe nothing to anyone except to love one another; for the one who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the Law. For this, “You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and if there is any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the Law.
+ Hebrews 6:13. This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and reliable and one which enters within the veil, where Jesus has entered as a forerunner for us, having become a high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.
+ 1 Peter 2:9. But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light

Dealing With Overwhelming Emotions
How does God walk with us when negative emotions threaten to overwhelm and take charge? How are our emotions being made in His image and what does that process look like? The antidote to negative feelings is not to banish emotion from our spiritual development, but to discover the emotion of God that He wants us to experience instead.
Key Scriptures:
+ John 15:11. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
+ Proverbs 18:10. The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.
