  • ALTERING THE OUTCOME | House of Faith Ministries (HoFM)

    ALTERING THE OUTCOME Written Teaching Minister Lisa Kane December 8, 2024 Objective The purpose of this teaching is to reveal the authority believers in Christ have through the spoken Word of God to alter the outcome of their circumstances. By understanding the power of faith-filled confession and the indwelling Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead, Christians can overcome fear, sickness, and adversity, walking in victory and freedom as children of God. Synopsis In “Altering the Outcome,” Lisa Kane teaches on the transformative power of God’s Word and the believer’s authority to change the course of life’s challenges. Drawing from John 1, Genesis 1, Romans 8, and key passages on Jesus’ miracles and resurrection, the message shows how the spoken Word of God carries creative and life-giving power. Lisa shares a personal testimony of standing in faith for her mother’s healing from cancer, demonstrating how prayer and declaring the name of Jesus bring peace and hope in the midst of trial. She explains that believers are not bound by the law of sin and death but live under the law of the Spirit of life, empowered by the same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead. Through examples such as Jesus walking on water, raising Lazarus, and altering natural laws, listeners are encouraged to recognize that faith and spoken declarations in Jesus’ name can shift circumstances—whether in health, finances, or any area of life. The teaching emphasizes that salvation is not only forgiveness of sins but also deliverance, healing, and preservation, all accessed through confession of Jesus as Lord. Ultimately, the message calls believers to live by the Spirit, speak God’s promises over their lives, and trust Him to alter outcomes according to His power and will. Written and/or Transcribed Teaching from Video Hello and welcome to the House of Faith Ministries. I'm Lisa Kaine and I'm recording this teaching on Sunday, December 8th, 2024. Welcome. Let's open up in a word of prayer. Father God, we thank you for your word and we bless your word. And Lord, we pray that your word does not return boy. But I pray that we understand what you're teaching us through your word. That we have authority and the power to alter the outcome of any of our situations. That is to the blessings that you have given us because we know how to come to you and cry out to you. Thank you Lord for making it uh a thing that we remember that we do in every circumstance that we face. In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. I'm so glad you can join us today. Thank you. I am calling this teaching altering the outcome. H this is going to be a very good teaching. So stick with me. We're going to start here in John 1:14. And the word was made flesh and dwelt or occupied among us. And we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the father, full of grace and truth. And the word became flesh. Let's talk about the word, the spoken word, the authority that we have to alter the circumstances of what we're in. You know, right now, I'm literally experiencing this. As you know, my mom has been dealing with cancer. She's still in the hospital and I was pretty down earlier today. But praying with others and praying in the spirit, setting time aside just to talk with the Lord. Wow. you know, the peace that surpasses understanding is fulfilling my heart right now, and I'm grateful for that. So, I would like for you to understand that concept and then to trust in the Lord and watch him change things. I'm believing that my mom is going to be sharing a powerful testimony here about cancer and overcoming it. We're going to see if that is true. And I'm trusting in the Lord that that will happen because it is not her time to go home. Not her time to go home with the Lord. She if that was the case, she would have died the last time because she had so many blood clots and sizable ones that it should have hit a brain or her heart. She should have died. She did not. So here we are. We are the house of faith ministry. So I'm hoping to teach a message on faith that uh you realize that you have the authority to change the outcome. Now you do need to be a believer in Christ first. So make sure that you confess Jesus as your Lord and Savior. If you have not done so, do that first. Uh we can do it very quickly here. You can pause the video, but basically you pray this and you repeat after me. Dear Jesus, I ask you to forgive me of my sins. Come into my heart and be my Lord and Savior. Help me to understand your word and the authority that you have given us in the name of Jesus. Amen. is that if that's the first time you've say made that statement, make certain that you get a Bible. You can use the one on the internet, www.biblegateway.com. Excellent resource. You can go buy one on Amazon or go to any bookstore. You can find Bibles there. Um, and then start reading the Gospel of John and then find a home church somewhere that is preferably non-denominational and get in there, start connecting with other believers. Amen. Okay. Okay. So, we're going to be talking about altering the outcome of whatever situation you're facing. This could be health, this could be finances, this could be any situation you're facing. I've taught a lot on this throughout the years, but it's very interesting when you put these particular scriptures together, what it does to the mind and the spoken word, what happens here. And this is why you have a lot of teachers who teach on claim it kind of things. We're not claiming it, but we're declaring the name of Jesus over it or Jesus is Lord over it. And you're going to see the scriptures tell us to do that. So don't think that you're, you know, oh, this is one of those claim it type of teachings. No, I want you to see how the scriptures are applied in this situation. Amen. So, uh, we're going to start here in John chapter 1:es 1 and two. In the beginning was the word. That word, by the way, means something said because we're talking about the spoken word. Says, "In the beginning was the word and the word that something said was with God and the word was God. The same was in the beginning with God." Well, how interesting that the gospel of John starts that way because he's saying, "Go back to the beginning and see the spoken word." That's what that says. Let's go to the beginning and see the spoken word. So let's go to Genesis 1 1-4. In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said here he spoke it, "Let there be light or illumination, and there was light." And God saw the light that it was good. And God divided the light from the darkness. So John is telling us go back to the spoken word because that spoken word was there in the beginning and remember my opening scripture was and that word became flesh. So the spoken power word of God became flesh which we know as Jesus the the Christ the Messiah. He came as the son of God. He was with God. He was God. He was there in the beginning. He's the spoken word. He spoke the word and he came into his own universe if you will. Okay. So in let's continue on in John chapter 1 now verses 3 and 4. All things were made or caused to be by him and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life and the life was the light luminescence of men. Oh. So we are here for a particular reason. Jesus created this universe and he has given us the authority to use his name because when he died, he rose from the grave. He redeemed us and he gave us the authority to speak in his name and to become adopted into his kingdom where we call father God our father, aba father. This is who we believe and trust in. So Jesus is the son of God. God is the father and God the father is the one who is allowing all this to happen. Jesus created the universe and he made it so we can come in. Now watch what Paul says here in Romans 8 11-15. But if the spirit of him that raised Jesus from the dead dwell in you pause. Jesus rose from the dead. And when he came out of that grave, he came out of that grave. We're going to see scripture here in just a moment of what happened when he came out of that grave because he's life. He is a light. It can't keep him down. You see, he created this universe that we're in and he altered the rules of this universe. And he did it multiple times, but I'm going to talk about the power of the cross and what he did on the cross. And then we're going to talk about the power of the little things he did while he walked here on the earth until it was his time to go. So Paul is saying, listen, you know, he he died and this power, the spirit of him that raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you. He that raised Christ from the dead, woke Christ from the dead, shall also quicken your mortal bodies. The mortal is liable to die bodies by his spirit that inhabits in you, dwells in you. Hold on a moment. Wait a minute. This mortal body can have life because what Christ did, the same power that's in Christ is in me and can do Whoa, hold on. Let's read that scripture one more time because I think it's worth it. Amen. But if the spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his spirit that dwelleth in you. Look at this verse 12. Therefore, brethren, we are not we are debtors, not to the flesh to live after the flesh. Let's continue on. Says, for if you live after the flesh, you you shall die. But if ye through the spirit do mortify or kill the deeds of the body, ye shall live. For as many as are led by the spirit of God, they are sons of God. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear. But ye have received the spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, "Aba, Father." Understand there's a lot in the scripture, by the way. A lot. Understand this. This is very, very important. We have the same spirit in us that's in Jesus. Well, one, he breathed into our nostrils to bring us life, did he not? He made us in his image. Man was made in his image and then he made female from the ri which then she protects the man. The whole another teaching. I've done that. You can go check it out. Here's the thing is if we have that same spirit in us, this mortal body, if we kill it, and we're not talking physical killing, we are talking spiritual killing. When you do that, you live. What happens is the moment you confess Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, guess what? You kill this body because you're telling this body, you're dead because I believe in Jesus who has already been raised from the dead. He is raised from the dead. And that's the same spirit that's in us. Now, I want you to understand something here. Jesus altered the rules as he went along. I hope you get this. This is so neat. This revelation, you see, he altered the rules. If you died a sinner, you were supposed to stay dead. That's just the way it is. And hell was made for sinners. It's made for places like the devil. But you see, God sent his only begotten son and says, "I need you to go save the people." And Jesus says, "I will go do it." So when he died because he had to and his blood went on the mercy seat and he so powerful he made this universe. He popped right out of that grave as a man with a new body because in the beginning was the word. He was spirit but that spirit came into the universe. He created. So when he said, "Let there be light," there was light. Imagine when you were a child and you made forts and you had all the sheets and blankets all around like all over the living room and your mom comes and go or you do it all over your bedroom. You have your friends over, you guys are just crawling around. I mean, and it's just so much fun to spend time playing in forts. Uh I can see the joy of Jesus wanting to enter the creation he created because it is so much fun. You get into that fort and you get to live whatever way you want. So if you have you put the sheet over here and you blocked off this path, guess what? You're in control of your universe. You pick up the sheet and move it and change it around. Now you have a path to crawl through. Jesus did that. Wait, how did he do that? Well, he did it raising from the dead because he came out alive. And well, we're going to see more scripture on that. But I want to show you another incident of when he did it. This is so neat. Matthew 14:24-33 But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed or tortured with waves, for the wind was contrary. And in the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went unto them walking on the sea. And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit. And they cried out for fear. But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, "Be of good cheer, or have courage. It is I. Be not afraid." And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. And he said, "Come." And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw or he became, he perceived the wind boisterous around him. You know, he was afraid and beginning to sink, he cried out. He cried saying, "Lord, save me." That word save there means deliver, protect, heal, preserve. And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand and caught or seized him and said unto him, "Oh, thou little faith incredulous or lacking confidence, wherefore dust thou doubt?" You know, why did you doubt? Why did you waver is what he's saying? And when they were come unto the ship, the wind ceased. Then they that were in the ship came and worshiped or prostrate oneself adored him, saying, "Of a truth, thou art the son of God." And they became believers very, very quickly. But Jesus altered the rules. You see, he just finished preaching to a multitude. He sent the multitude away. He sent his disciples to go to the other side. And he decided to go up to the mountain to pray. I love that. He didn't care where he needed to go, what direction. He didn't care if he had somebody there or food. He stopped knowing that there's a storm and his men are in that boat that he told them to get into. And there he is on the top of the mountain praying. Now, let's get a visual of this for a moment because this is an image of what Jesus does today. He's in the high place sitting sitting at the right hand of God on the throne there and he's praying for us. He's interceding on our behalf always. That's what Jesus is doing. Well, Jesus was doing that and then he came down off that mountain and decided to go join his disciples by walking on the water to the ship. I'm pretty confident not one person in this world can walk on water. And so, the only person who could walk on water that day was who? Jesus. And then Peter said, "Well, if you're Jesus, call me to you." And Jesus said, "Come." Peter gets out of the boat and starts walking over like, "Hey, you are Jesus." And then all of a sudden he becomes aware that he's on water and he starts to sink and he says, "Jesus, save me." Spoken out loud word and immediately Jesus grabbed a hold of him and brought him up. So this is a type of what we can see Jesus and how he handles us today. We can see that Jesus altered his universe to do something he needed to do, which was to show us what it would be like when he's in heaven and we're still on earth. This was for us. I mean, I'm sure Peter was thrilled to be like the only other man that could ever walk on water. And then, you know, I'm sure he kind of didn't want to share the part where he almost sank. He's just sharing the part, woohoo, I walked with Jesus on the water. So, here you have a just one sample of the illustration of all the things that Jesus has altered on this universe. And by the way, that altering occurred afterwards. Philillip, great guy. Go look at him. Go read about him in Acts. you will find that he's suddenly there to minister to a unic who's reading Isaiah and he's curious who is this Isaiah talking about. So, Philip ministers to him, witnesses to him, ends up accepting Jesus as his Lord. He baptizes him. When he comes out of the water, Philip's gone. He's gone on to another town instantly. It's uh he's not there. And again, you're seeing the alteration of the universe. You see, sin came into the world. So, we're supposed to die, but Jesus said, "Nope, I'm going to change the rules." And he changed the rules, which means we don't have to live as fear or in fear that we're going to die any minute after now or any time because we have the authority in the name of Jesus. Every time we say Jesus save me or Jesus you are Lord and you speak that out. Jesus is in the midst of your situation and he's seizing you out of it, taking care of you or altering the things going on around you. So let's take a look at the death of him on the cross and what he did because again he altered the rules. He changed the rules. When you die you're supposed to stay dead. Remember he raised Lazarus from the dead. So he demonstrates when he is risen from the dead. And look what it says in Matthew 27:50-53. Jesus when he cried again with a loud voice. He's up on the cross yielded up or sent forth his ghost or the ghost and behold the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom and the earth did quake and the rocks rent and the graves were opened and many bodies of the saints which slept dead arose. That word slept means dead arose and it came out of the and came out of the graves after his resurrection and went into the holy se city and appeared unto many. I I laugh at that because imagine having Aunt Martha's funeral. you just had Aunt Martha's funeral and you know a few days later you're sitting there having um you know lunch or snack or you're working with your animals whatever here comes that Martha walking up to your home and just like the men were on the ship they saw Jesus and they were troubled or they were is that a ghost and you see Aunt Martha and you you're stunned Because see, that's not normal. That's not what this world or how this world operates. However, Jesus changed the rules. And by the way, the same spirit that's in Jesus that can change rules means that same spirit that is in us can change those rules, too. Now, let's go to Romans 8:1 and2. There is therefore now no condemnation, no verdict against us to them which are in Christ Jesus who walk not after the flesh but after the spirit. You see what happens the moment you confess Jesus as your Lord and Savior. You are spirit. You are no longer in this flesh. This flesh is dead. You crucified it and it's been crucified on the cross with Jesus. It's a goner. The flesh is dead. And because Ro uh Hebrews 9:27 or 9:23 says, you can go look it up which one it is. I think it's 9:27 says uh every man's appointed to die once. Well, guess what? If the rapture is going to happen in this generation, does that mean Paul's a liar with what he wrote in his Bible? Because we don't die, we go in the rapture. On the contrary, he speaks the truth. Because every believer out there has already died to this flesh, to the rules of this world, to the laws of this land. We're not obligated to that. I want you to catch this in your mind. I need you to understand that you have the right and the authority to alter the universe around you. You don't have to be sick. Seriously, you don't have to be in a financial s situation. Seriously, this is for reals. The Bible tells us that the same spirit that's in Jesus is going to raise us up out of that grave. So, I love it with Paul when he quoted, I think it's Joel, he quoted, he says, and I could be wrong about that. You go look it up. Oh, death, oh death, where is your sting? Yeah, where is your sting? I'm alive for eternity already here in this flesh. This is just my beginning footsteps because as a believer in Christ, I have the beginning of the power and the authority of the name of Jesus. I can alter my universe, which means I get to speak a spoken word over whatever the situation circumstance is. So, and we live by the spirit. We're choosing by the spirit. Verse two, for the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. So you can see these two laws. Law of sin and death is what the law of this world came to be when Adam and Eve fell. So you had to die. Every generation dies. Everyone's dying. And eventually you do whether you do it at the age of two days old or at the age of 150 years old, everybody dies. But when you become a believer in Christ, Jesus says, "I altered the rules." Guess what? You're now living by the law of the spirit and you're already dead because you no longer have this flesh holding you back because you're walking in your spirit. Your spirit is manifesting. You see, when he says you have the keys to the kingdom of heaven, and he says, "Whatever you bound on earth is bound in heaven. Whatever you loose on earth is loose in heaven." He's showing us that heaven and earth, spirit and physical are related to each other. And what manifests in the spirit is going to manifest in the flesh. So if you're a bitter, hateful person who isn't walking with Christ because you're walking in the flesh because you're in anger, you're you're going to manifest the sicknesses and diseases related to hate and bitterness and anger. That's the concept of this. But if you being um in the spirit of Christ are calling out blessings and forgiveness and saying, "I'm going to forgive that. I choose to forgive that. I'm going to forgive myself because I'm already dead because the Lord has saved me. And because he saved me, none of that ever matters. Whether I was right or wrong, it doesn't matter. I'm forgiven. And because I'm forgiven, I get to alter the universe my body lives in. I get to walk in liberty, in freedom from sicknesses and diseases. I have that right because I'm in the spirit. That's what I hope you guys are catching here. Now, let's go to look at verse uh 11, going back to our opening scripture. But if the spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his spirit that dwells in you. You see, we have this ability to have the manifestation of the spoken word in us. We have a powerful tongue. And if we're confessing Jesus as our Lord, let's go read Romans 10:9. Says that if thou confess, acknowledge with my mouth, the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe or have faith in thine heart that God has raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved, delivered, protected, healed, preserved. So the moment you say, Jesus, save me, like Peter did in the water, Jesus is obligated to save you. He wants to save you. He loves you that much. He's going to save you. So, he's going to get you out of your circumstance and situation. And by the way, there are many, many, many testimonies that tell you how many people spoke the name of Jesus and their situation changed. And I just I love hearing some of these testimonies. There's a a former homosexual man who, you know, he he thought it was funny. He I love his testimony. When he was uh gay, he he kept saying, "It's not a sin. It's not a sin." And he went and looked it up in the Bible to find out. And when he found out what the Bible actually said, he confess Jesus as his Lord and Savior. He's a man now that ministers to the homosexual homosexual uh comm uh community. He's ministering to them. Why? because he's telling them, listen, I believe the way you believe that it's not a sin, but guess what? It is, and I didn't want to go to hell, and I know you don't want to go to hell. So, he's ministering to them. He altered the universe around him. He called on the name of Jesus, got saved, his life changed because it's a mental thing. You're dealing mentally with this kind of stuff. He altered the way he thought. He went from the flesh to the spirit and he's letting people know there is a God. He's real and he's coming back. Now, does that mean he's this perfect creation? No. But I know that after he got saved, he lost his job. Woke is all in its finest hour there. And he had to lose his apartment. But he called on Jesus. And all of a sudden, he got a podcast going. He got an apartment. People were donating to him. You see how the Lord moves just in that testimony. His name is Richard. You can go find him on Tik Tok and I'm sure you can find him. But I remember because I I've been praying for that community, the LGBTQ plus community. I pray for wokeism, Black Lives Matters. I pray for these. that I know that my prayers are altering the universe because it's allowing the spirit to move forward because see prayer works because what did he say? I confess with my mouth the Lord Jesus and believe that God raised him from the dead. How do you believe that God raised someone from the dead? Well, you start talking about Jesus and you can't see him. That's faith. Look at this. Says uh with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe or have faith. And what is faith? Things hoped for that we can't see yet. That's how God operates. He operates with faith. So for me, I'm altering the universe. I pray over my mom and I declare the name of Jesus. This is why I believe there's a testimony coming out of here. Lord's not done with her. And you know, I'm not praying, by the way, asking that she live forever. I I want y'all to understand. I don't want her to die this way because cancer is from the devil. That is a sickness and a disease. That's an attack on the physical body. And it it's our faith that has to rise up so we can be healed. And remember, Jesus not only healed by healing people, by laying hands on them or or anything like that. He would say many times, "Your faith has made you whole." meaning we have the authority to be made whole through our faith. So we I'm trying to teach this is why we're called the house of faith ministries trying to show you that when you speak the Lord Jesus that's what he says the Lord Jesus and believe that God raised him from the dead what does it say there it says you will be saved that word saved has multiple um uh definitions delivered protect healed preserved that is our blessing by saying Jesus is Lord Lord. Jesus, you are Lord over my mind. Jesus, you are Lord over my body. Jesus, you are Lord over every ache and pain. Jesus, you are Lord over sickness and diseases because he rose from the dead and he came out. That same power of life and authority is in you. All you have to do to alter your universe is to say, "Jesus, you're Lord. I have to trust in you. I have to give this to you. I'm not going to worry about it. I'm not going to stand another minute in this. This is yours. I'm going to let you deal with it because it is not by might nor by power, but is by your spirit." Amen. Let's close in a word of prayer. Father God, we thank you for your word. I pray that this word is uplifting and encouraging to those who hear it, that they apply it, that they start calling the name of Jesus over all of their circumstances, and that they live by faith, knowing that they can alter their universe just like you altered the universe as you walked on this earth. Lord, we love you and honor you and praise you and bless you for you truly are mighty and faithful in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. God bless you and I will see you in the next message. Byebye.

  • LOVE IN DOCTRINE | House of Faith Ministries (HoFM)

    LOVE IN DOCTRINE Written Teaching Minister Lisa Kane April 2, 2023 Objective The objective of this message is to teach the foundational truth of salvation as revealed in scripture, emphasizing that it is entirely the work of God through Jesus Christ and not dependent on man-made doctrines, rituals, or works. The message seeks to encourage believers to demonstrate the love of Christ in doctrine by confessing Him, defending Him, and sharing the gift of salvation through love rather than fear or rigid traditions. Synopsis In Love in Doctrine, Lisa Kane opens with Psalm 38, declaring that salvation belongs to the Lord. She contrasts God’s simple plan of salvation with human tendencies to complicate it through rules, rituals, and doctrines. Drawing on Luke 23:39–43, she highlights the thief on the cross, who confessed his sin, defended Jesus, and received salvation without water baptism, works, or rituals—demonstrating the pure essence of grace. She then explores John 9, where a man born blind was healed by Jesus. Though initially ignorant of who Jesus was, he defended Him before the Pharisees, confessed his faith when confronted by Christ, and was saved. This account illustrates that salvation comes through confession and belief, not adherence to rigid traditions or fear-based teaching. Lisa warns against strange doctrines and emphasizes the necessity of love, referencing 1 John 4:18—perfect love casts out fear. She encourages believers to demonstrate God’s love through action, prayer, and compassion rather than rules or condemnation. The message also looks ahead prophetically, reminding listeners that the current age of grace is coming to an end, urging all to confess and defend Jesus Christ as Lord before it is too late. Ultimately, Love in Doctrine calls the church to move in the Spirit, edify one another, and present the gospel in the fullness of God’s love—drawing people to Christ not by terror, but by the demonstration of His perfect love and grace. Written and/or Transcribed Teaching from Video Hello and welcome to the House of Faith Ministries. I'm Lisa Kane. I'm recording this on Sunday, April 2nd, 2023. Welcome. This message is called Love in Doctrine. Let's open up in a word of prayer. Father God, we bless this word and we thank you for your blessings on it. We pray for your anointing on it. We pray that we have the hearts open to receive and to believe and to demonstrate your love in doctrine to show what true salvation is. and that basics of the salvation that we now know belongs to you and is of you and only you, Father God. So, let us have the heart to demonstrate that love so that we can bless others with the gift of salvation that you've given us, Lord. In the glorious, wonderful name of Jesus. Thank you, Father God. Amen. Before I begin here, I we're in the process of getting ready to move and move to Missouri. So, we will be moving probably the end of June. So, we're gonna have open house here soon. So, there's changes going on all around here. So, anyways, I'm hoping that you guys uh the sound quality and the lighting is okay. It's going to be a little echoey. And then, of course, I've got the door open because it's a beautiful spring day. The temperature, I believe, is um like it was 69 or 70 degrees earlier, so very, very pleasant. So, anyways, let's get into it. Let's go to our opening scripture here. Psalm 38. Salvation belongs to the Lord. Your blessing is upon your people. Hallelujah. Your salvation belong salvation belongs to the Lord. You know, it is so amazing how we want to take salvation to the next level. Take a look at the Philippines and they're going to be doing this right about this time of the year because we're coming into uh resurrection day next Sunday. This is Palm Sunday. And what they do is they actually put themselves up on a cross and they they crucify themselves. although they live through it, they take them down before they there's serious harm. But the point is is they feel the need to be able to demonstrate what Jesus did. Every one of us has something where we want to do something for God or we we feel that we need to do something for our salvation. Well, you know what? I'm going to tell you biblically speaking, there's nothing we can do. It's all God's salvation. Now, if we want to choose to live for Christ, that's that's what we can do. And I hope I can encourage that and bring that across to you in this message. Now, what I'm going to do is I'm going to show you two men that were saved by Jesus and show you how the salvation works and how you can receive. Amen. So, we're going to start here at the cross actually for Palm Sunday. Isn't that amazing? We're in Luke 23:39-43. Then one of the criminals who were hanged blasphemed him, saying, "If you are the Christ, save yourself and us." But the other answering rebuked him, saying, "Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation? And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds. But this man has done nothing wrong." Then he said to Jesus, "Lord, remember me when you come into your kingdom." And Jesus said to him, "Assuredly I say to you today, you will be with me in paradise." Oh, how beautiful this demonstration of salvation is. So, what I want to show you is is compare this to some doctrines that exist out there. Now, I am not going to name doctrines. I am not going to bring any of that here. You're already familiar with it. either you've taught it or you've heard it taught to you or you tr you live by it right now. Well, we're going to show you some of the basics and compare the scripture to doctrine. So, if you notice here, there was something very very neat here that this man did. So, you've got this one criminal. Okay? So, here's Jesus. He's on the cross and he's got two other people on the side of them. Now, they're being this is a curse. So these two criminals got caught uh as thieves. They were stealing and they got caught and they were being crucified with Jesus. So the three of them are being killed at the same time. This is how they do that back in those days. And this one criminal starts mocking God while he's up on the cross. And the the the criminal that defends Jesus says, "Don't you even fear God, seeing you're under the same condemnation? We're all in the same boat here. What do you think is gonna happen next? Yeah. In other words, you better get your mind right with God now because you're about to die. But this guy's mocking Jesus like it's no big deal. But you know, he he you know what this criminal does is he defends Jesus because what does he do next? He says, "Hey, we're the ones, look at this, he confesses his sins. He says, "We indeed justly for we receive the due rewards of our deeds." In other words, we deserve to die. We were criminals. So, he confesses this right here. And then he goes even further to say, "But this man has done nothing wrong. He defended Jesus." And he recognized something here because look what he says next. Lord, remember me when you come into your kingdom." And then Jesus said to him, "Assuredly I say to you today you will be with me in paradise." This man, this thief, this criminal, a confessed criminal gets saved by the salvation, the grace and the mercy that Jesus has for us. He is saved. That is absolutely incredible. So what? Let's compare it to doctrine. Now, did he get water baptized? No. Did he get baptized by the Holy Spirit? No. Did he get off the cross, go door to door knocking on people's doors to be saved? There's no scripture to support that at all. He did not get back off that cross. He died. He died on that cross with Jesus. He was saved and he wasn't There's a lot of doctrine that tells you you have to be baptized by the Holy Spirit or or waterbaptized to be saved. That's not true. That is not scriptural. That is the enemy sneaking things in there because man, human want to put rules and regulations in place where Jesus says, "All I'm asking you to do is confess and defend." Hallelujah. So, this is where the basic of salvation is. It's at this level where all you've got to do is defend Jesus and confess that you're a sinner and you need him. You see, this is what this man on the cross did. And he got saved. And he never went and lived for Christ. He never had the opportunity to do any of that. And in essence, he was saved by the hair on his chinny chin chin. Hallelujah. So now there's another man that went through the same thing. And this is found in John nine. So I'm going to go through John nine, the bulk of the chapter, but just in pieces as we talk about it. But I encourage you again, do some homework and read about this whole man's life here in John chapter nine. Amen. So let's go. We're going to start here in John chapter nine. We're looking at verses 1-5 in the beginning here. So now as Jesus passed by, he saw a man who was blind from birth. Look at what his disciples did. And his disciples asked him, saying, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents that he was born blind?" So pause here for a moment. It is a known fact. And it is scriptural that the consequence of sin are diseases and sicknesses inside our bodies. In fact, that's what kills us. We're dying. So even though we're aging, we're going to eventually die due to age. But that corrupts the flesh. Aging corrupts the flesh. So here, this man was born blind. So everyone thinks what is natural somebody sinned and cause causes to happen. Jesus says, "Not look at this." He says, "Jesus answered, neither this man nor his parents did, but that the works of God should be revealed in him. I must work the works of him who sent me while it is day. The night is coming when no one can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world." So Jesus says, "This was done on purpose. Oh, imagine this man. Oh, you thinking about the beginning of your lives and the woe woe is me. Wo was that because I have no in fact I don't think he wasn't just blind. I think he was born without eye sockets altogether. But either way here this man spin and I he's a young man. Uh I'm guessing somewhere's around the age of 20 and he is just he he's been born this way. And so Jesus decides to heal him. He he mixes clay. Go read the scripture. I'm not going to bring these scriptures out, otherwise it'll be too long of a message. But he takes the clay, spits in it, puts it on his eyes, and tells him to go wash. The man washes, and voila, he's got eyes. He can see. Now, let's look what happened next because wow, you would think this is an absolute wonderful miracle. Who cares who did it? No, no, no. This is like uh let's get into scripture. Uh, let's not get uh go down a rap trail here. Verse 13, they brought him who formerly was blind to the Pharisees. This is now this is what I was going to say. When you go into, let's say, the government grills like recently the CEO of Tik Tok. So, they go after you don't think this, don't you? This is Satan. That's what the Pharisees and the Sadducees are doing. And you know what? It's nothing new under the sun. They're still doing it today. But anyways, let's come back and look at this. It says, "Now it was a Sabbath when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes." Rule. There's a rule in place. I'm gonna pause here for just a quick moment because I need you to hear this. Take a look at all the denominations that exist in the world today. Take a look at all the denominations that have existed in the past but don't exist today or how dead they are today. Why? because they put rules in place that they could not allow themselves to accept the new wine from God because God just explained the basics of salvation. And here the church is trying to tell you we have to do this, you have to do that, you and no, salvation is confession and defending Jesus. The basics is there. You get saved just by doing that. Yes, we want people to live for God. Yes, you have a calling on your life. Yes, you have blessings and promises that you can grab on to and hold to because that's what God tells his people that are saved. Then you make that choice to do that. But that's not a requirement to get into heaven. Understand that. Understand that big difference here. And I want you to see that. Now, let's continue on here. He says it was the Sabbath. So verse 15, then the Pharisees also asked him again how he had received his sight. He said to them, he put clay on my eyes and I washed and I see. Therefore, some of the Pharisees says, "This man is not from God because he does not keep the Sabbath." There's that rule again. Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such things?" And there was a division among them. So one, they think Jesus is a sinner because we're all sinners. So they didn't see him as a son of God. They missed that. Two, they had these rules and regulations in place that, oh, don't you dare hear. This man's been blind for 20 years. What the rule is? You got to wait one more day because you can't do it on the Sabbath. Well, you know what? This man needs relief now. He needs healing now. He might not make it to the next day. So, you can see how hard the Pharisees and the Sadducees are. And you can compare that to some churches and some doctrines. So you have to be very careful. Now that doesn't mean you go and accuse them and hate them or do a bad review on them. No. What you do is you go to God. Say, "God, these people need a change. Help them. Open their eyes to see." You see, now you start doing p prayer. And prayer is so powerful. It changes things like that. This is why we have revivals from time to time because the Lord is pouring out a new wine in that person who finally lets go of all the restrictions. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Let's continue on and see what what else happens here. So now the Pharisees go. So now they're going to go ask the parents about this blind man. Look at this. His parents answered them, said, "We know that our that this is our son and that he was born blind. But by what means he now sees, we do not know. Or who opened his eyes, we do not know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself." His parents said these things because they feared the Jews. For the Jews had agreed already that if anyone confessed that he was Christ the Messiah, he would be put out of the synagogue. Now, you see what's going on here? Christ the Messiah. They're now saying, "This guy's not the Messiah. He's not the son of God. And if you dare say he is, we're kicking you out of the synagogue." So these parents are like, "Well, let's put it back. Go back and talk to our son. We don't know what happened. We weren't there." So here the Pharisees are grilling, grilling, grilling. They went after the parents. Guess what? They go back to the the the blind man. Look at this. This is verse 24. So they again called a man who was blind and said to him, "Give God the glory. We know that this man is a sinner." And he answered and said, "Whether he's a sinner or not, I do not know. One thing I know that though I was blind, I now see." Then they said to him again, "What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?" He answered them, "I told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become his disciples?" Okay, this kid, young man, has defended Christ. Notice he's not a believer. He doesn't know who Jesus is. He has not confessed his sins. He has not done anything that he is defending Jesus because he was healed. And these Pharisees are making a mockery of it. And he says, "No, no, no, no." And then he goes, "What is it? What's wrong with you? Do you want to be his disciple?" Oh, I promise you that ticked them off. They're livid. Now, let's continue and see what else happens here. Verse 34. Now, they answered and said to him, "You are completely born in sins and are you teaching us because he went back and he was sharing what Jesus did and he's telling them what's going on." And now they're mad. You're trying to teach us. We're the ones who know what's going on. Yeah, right. They don't. They're missing the whole point. Look at this. And they cast him out. So now they cast him out completely. He's out of the synagogue. You must be a believer in Christ because you're not part of us because you broke the rules and you shouldn't have been healed. I mean, that's the reality of what these guys are saying. What a joke these Pharisees and Sadducees are. This is why Jesus called them a brood of vipers. Oh man. Oh, I would have been standing there next to him applauding. But I live today and I didn't live then. So, and this is hindsight of course as I see this. Let's continue on and see what happens. Now, Jesus heard, this is verse 35. Jesus heard that they had cast him out. And when he found him, so he went and found the blind man. Says, when he found him, he said to him, "Do you believe in the son of God?" Now, look at watch this dialogue. Watch what this blind man who's now seeing says. He says, he answered and said, "Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?" And Jesus said to him, "You have both seen him, and it is he who is talking with you." Then the blind man said, "Lord, I believe." And he worshiped him. He was saved. He believed. He believed that Jesus Christ is the son of God. He had been talking to him. He asked Jesus directly. Jesus answered him directly, "You're talking to the son of God." "Well, then I believe." So, he confessed. Well, he defended Jesus first as a non-confessor, then he confessed Jesus and he believed. Look at what Paul says about in Romans, Romans 10:9, that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved. I've taught so much on that message, that verse alone. It is incredible. But there's the basics of salvation. That is what I'm talking about. He confessed, he believed, and he was saved. So now you see these two men, one on the cross, and one here in everyday life that was blind, got healed. And by the way, he was healed and he wasn't a believer. Please understand, you don't need to be healed and be a believer, too. You You don't. God wants to heal everybody. and he will because that's what he wants to do. He wants to bless you. He wants to bring you into the fold that sometimes some people need a healing in order to believe. Now look at what John says in the epistle 1 John 4:18. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, but because fear involves torment, but he who fears has not been made perfect in love. When you're trying to teach by a doctrine that goes against the very basics of the scriptures, you're pouring terror and fear into the people. And let me give you a word of advice. People nowadays are so desensitized by everything that's going on and they're playing all these video games. Fear does not affect them anymore. But look at the epistle here. He says, "There is no fear in love." Imagine. I get it. There are some people that will never live for Christ. That's okay. As long as they believe that Jesus is the son of God and confess that they're a sinner, they're saved. Wouldn't it be better to get them saved that way? Even if they choose not to live for Christ, to get them saved that way, we can have less people go to hell. I do not wish anyone to go to hell. This is why I'm trying to teach this message because I'm hoping that eyes will open and ears will hear. I rather they get saved even if they choose not to live for Christ. By the way, choosing to live for Christ is a choice. You choose whether you want to do that or not. And that's up to you and God. Now, I encourage you to choose to live for God because there are promises and blessings where one, when you're spending time with God, you're not in sin. Sin runs because you're in the presence of God. Two, there are no sicknesses in the presence of God, which means you're healed. These are the blessings and the promises you get to live and you have the blessing of a long life. You can go years living for Christ and be so content with God, be at peace and have that joy, all that that that stuff that surpasses every everybody's understanding. And they're going to look at you and they're going to see you as a walking testimony. That is how you minister and show them the love of God so they can believe. Cuz right now the world is hard and selfish and they're living in darkness. When they see you different, they come back and say, "Wow, what is it that you have?" When they ask, you get to tell them who you have. The precious gem of Jesus. Let me share you, share him with you. Oh, hallelujah. Hallelujah. Let's continue on in Hebrews 13:es 8 and 9. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines. For it is good that the heart be established by grace, not with foods which have not profited those who have been occupied with them. You see, we eat spiritual food when you're in the word of God. But when you're eating the world's food, you're not in the presence of God. And so what happens is you're and here's another promise and a blessing that you have. You get to see false doctrine when you're spending time with God. So when you're not though, you can get easily confused and dissuade. And I I encourage you to spend time with Christ. But it takes just confession and just defending him as the son of God, declaring Jesus Christ as the son of God. And let me just also tell you another blessing here. Salvation is coming to an end. This age, this era that we're in, which is called the dispensation of grace, is ending. We have what's called a seven-year tribulation period coming in for the Israelites because God is not done dealing with the Israelites. Well, on day one, known as the day of the Lord or the day of wrath, that day, salvation ends. I don't know what time. I don't know where it's going to be on that day, but what I do know is that when you enter into the seven-year tribulation, if you do not call Jesus as the son of God, you will most likely die in that seven-year tribulation. Why? Because men that survive it will be finer than gold over gold. I'm guessing it's going to be less than 10 people that survive the seven-year tribulation, just like the days of Noah. Noah, there was eight of them. That's all they survived. And that's all God needed to repopulate the earth. And he will repopulate the earth for the thousand-y year millennium. So, this is very, very key, very important. You're most likely going to die during that seven-year tribulation, but you can't avoid it. So, before that day or on that day, as long as you declare that Jesus Christ is the son of God and you believe, you're saved. that and confess and let God know you're a sinner. Let him know you messed up. It's okay because guess what? We were all born into sin and we've all messed up. And some of us have done worse things than others. That's still okay because God Jesus has love for you that is so abounding, so bountiful that he just he loves you so much. He wants to save you no matter what. Amen. He wants to save you no matter what. This is how God moves. And this is how you can avoid hell. Amen. Amen. Amen. Oh, I I encourage you. Confess and defend Jesus right now. Hebrews 4 1-6. I therefore the prisoner of the Lord beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called. Now, I want you to see the difference about walking with Christ and choosing Christ as your Lord and Savior for the rest of your life. That the man on the cross did not get to have that opportunity. But I'm telling you, his death might have been a little more peaceful than the other one. He had a mental stability that held him together as he went through that, whereas the other man didn't. This is how it is when you choose to live for Christ first. You put him first in your life. Look at what happens. Look at the what is our worthy of calling here with which you were called. Look at verse two. With all loneliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love. You see how God changes the inside of us? We become like him. Longsufferers. We see the frustration of the world. But love them. You do it in love with in bearing with one another in love. Look at verse three. Endeavoring to keep the unity of the spirit in bond of peace. There is one body and one spirit just as you were called in one hope of your calling. One Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God, one Father of all, who is above all and through all and in you all. Hallelujah. The moment you do this, God, you allow him to change you. You allow the spirit of God, the breath, the numa to move you in ways. He moves your conscience. He changes it. You're no longer selfish. You're no longer living to the world because you put God first and you get his promises and benefits as a result of that. That is the God we serve. Hallelujah. Let's continue in verse seven. But to each one of us, grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gift. Therefore, he says when he ascended on high, he led captivity captive and he gave gifts to men. Now, verse nine. Now, this he ascended, what does it mean that he also first descended into the lower parts of the earth? God came down for you, knowing full well you're dirty, stinky, and you're in sin. But he came down anyways. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. He who descended is also the one who ascended far above the heavens that he might fill all things. He ascended. He rose from the dead. He is alive and well. This is why we celebrate Palm Sunday and resurrection day because he came out of that grave. He is not dead and no other religion can say that about anyone. This is the relig. This is Christianity is not a religion. It it is a um something that offends so many people and causes strife and division which Jesus said that's why I came that the world might be saved. Hallelujah. And he himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers. You see, you have a calling on your life. Now, you can choose to walk away. It is your choice. Isn't that even more better? You have the choice. And know that God is there for you. He will keep you. Now, he will send you curses. He will even send you the devil to get your attention if you far you stray far off the path. He will go after you. He ain't giving up on you. Amen. And look at verse 12. For the equipping of the saints, for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ. And that's exactly what we need to be doing, edifying one another, encouraging one another, lifting up one another. And imagine you getting edified by somebody else. And you're working under unity, under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Do you know that when you go into the beginning of Acts and you read how the first church started? They started under the direction of the Holy Spirit, not a pastor. So today's church isn't even set up right yet because God is getting ready to pour out his new wine skin. And the anointing of the Holy Spirit is getting everybody ready. He's getting the bride of Christ ready. So we're going to have this new wine skin on us. And our master is the Holy Spirit. We're going to be move. And what's the spirit? That's the breath that moves us. That's what changes our conscience, our soul. And because it moves us and changes us, we get ready to edify and go into ministry to save more because there's a lot of people in this world. Amen. Let's continue on there because that is very powerful. Uh till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the son of God to a perfect man to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ. That is verse 13. By the way, I left off the one. My humble apologies. Verse 14. That we should no longer be children tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine by the trickery of men in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting. but speaking the truth in love may grow up in all things into him who is the head Christ from whom the whole body joined and knit together by what every joint supplies according to the effective working by which every part does its share causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love. Do you see that the love there? How that is such a critical ingredient to moving under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. So here church and I do speak to the bride of Christ. Stop trying to terrorize people to get saved. Show them the love because the love will cast out fear. Perfect love will draw them in. You know honey draws in more than you will ever know. They want people are craving love. Look at people who walk around with help animals or um anyways the animals that do help them. Uh they need that because they feel insecure and they need an animal to be there. Well, in Christ you don't need an animal. You need Christ. And with Christ, you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you. There is no fear. It is perfect love. And when people see you acting, operating, moving, and speaking those words, they humble themselves and they they're like, "How do I get that? That's how you minister. That's how you get them saved." And as we're evangelizing, this is how we do it. Through his perfect love. Oh, hallelujah. Look at in Titus 3:4. But when the kindness and the love of God our savior toward men appear, toward man appeared, not by works of righteousness. And by the way, it says, "But when the kindness and the love of God, our savior toward man appeared." That is Jesus. That is Jesus going to the cross. That is when he appeared. Like it says here, not by works of righteousness, which we have done because that's what we do. We try to do things in righteousness by mankind. I got the right way, Lord. No, you don't. Let the Holy Spirit do it because I can't save anybody. it. I can't do that. Why? Because it is the spirit. It's not by might. It's not by power. But it is by my spirit, says the Lord. Hallelujah. Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit. This is what he did on the cross. And he did it with perfect love. That is the love example that we should do. We should sacrifice our time for people. We should sacrifice our food to help people. This is how you live in love for Christ. You demonstrate the love of God and you move in that because the anointing of the Holy Spirit is the numa, the power, and he moves through you, causing you. If you see somebody who is walking around outside of a gas station, they look lost and confused, missing a shoe, they look homeless, and they probably stink. Go to them. They need your help. If they don't want to take it, you pray for them and you keep praying for them until they're saved. That is how this works. And you've got the power prayer. You're more powerful than our government. Your prayer is more powerful than our government. You're the more powerful person as the as a person saved by Christ. So take up your promises and your blessings and pray them forth not just for yourself but for others who need it so that they can confess and defend Jesus as their Lord and Savior and become believers and choose to walk for Christ. Hallelujah. What a beautiful blessing of a message this is. We are blessed by having the word of God, the holy living word of God, the Bible, as our doctrine. And we're not getting mixed up and confused. As long as you put that helmet of salvation on, snap it under your chin, it ain't going anywhere. And the devil's doctrine won't enter your brain. Hallelujah. Oh, how I encourage you to stand up for love and stand up for the Messiah, the son of God. confess Jesus as the son of God because he is. And then tell him, "Yeah, I know you're the son of God and I'm told that you can save. I'm asking you to save me because I'm a sinner." Oh, hallelujah. That is saving people. And I hope that you begin to do it and be bold and do it with confidence. Look at the boldness of the thief on the cross. Lord, remember me when you enter your kingdom. And Jesus says, "I promise you, I will see you at paradise tonight." Oh, how precious and beautiful salvation is. And I truly hope that each and every one of us can put aside what we think is doctrine and righteousness and the proper way to get people saved and just simply say, "Jesus is the son of God and I was a sinner. He saved me." That's what confession is all about. Hallelujah. Let's close in a word of prayer. Father God, we thank you for your word. We thank you for opening our eyes and ears to see and hear. We thank you. We pray and ask for your perfect love to reside in us. That we may demonstrate that love and that we may be able to get people saved even if it's just by the skin of their teeth or the hair on their chinny chin chin. Lord, we thank you for your living word. We thank you for the confession that you've given us, the the free gift that you've given us by going and redeeming us and saving us by the blood of Jesus. By your blood on that cross, thank you. Thank you for the remission of sins. Lord, we are saved. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for showing us how to walk with you, how to sa be saved, and how to put our words to good youth use. In the glorious name of Jesus we pray. Amen. God bless you and I will see you in the next message. Bye-bye. Home Watch the Video Teaching

  • THE THREE FROGS | House of Faith Ministries (HoFM)

    THE THREE FROGS To expose the deceptive nature of the “three unclean spirits like frogs” described in Revelation 16:13–14, tracing their influence through false doctrines that undermine God’s truth, corrupt the conscience, and lead humanity toward rebellion against God. This teaching aims to equip believers to discern these demonic influences, remain watchful, and keep clothed with the promises of God through Christ, standing firm in righteousness against end-time deception. THE THREE FROGS Pastor Marcos Marrero May 30, 2023 Objective: To expose the deceptive nature of the “three unclean spirits like frogs” described in Revelation 16:13–14, tracing their influence through false doctrines that undermine God’s truth, corrupt the conscience, and lead humanity toward rebellion against God. This teaching aims to equip believers to discern these demonic influences, remain watchful, and keep clothed with the promises of God through Christ, standing firm in righteousness against end-time deception. Synopsis: The Three Frogs centers on Revelation’s vision of demonic spirits emerging from the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet. These spirits—symbolizing lying doctrines—leap across the world, deceiving nations with signs and false wisdom. Their ultimate goal is to gather humanity in rebellion against God on the “great day of God Almighty.” The teaching identifies three historic channels of deception: Darwin’s theory of evolution (reducing man to an animal), Freud’s psychology (severing the human soul from moral accountability), and Marx’s socialism (exalting pride and control over God’s order). Each corresponds with the lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and pride of life warned of in 1 John 2:15–16. Together, they form a counterfeit trinity that erodes the divine truth embedded in every human conscience. The message contrasts humans—created uniquely in God’s image and infused with His breath—with animals, which are animated by mere life-force. While fallen angels once attempted to corrupt humanity by blending human and animal natures, God judged and destroyed their work. Modern parallels appear in artificial intelligence and genetic tampering, echoing Daniel 2:43’s prophecy of mingling with the seed of men, yet doomed to fail. Ultimately, believers are warned not to fall prey to these doctrines of demons but to remain clothed with Christ’s righteousness, putting on the armor of light and resisting deception. The call is to vigilance, holiness, and steadfast faith in Jesus—the only One who preserves both body and soul for the promised resurrection and eternal life. Inspired Teaching: Revelation 16:13-14 “And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.” These three demonic spirits jump out like frogs out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet and leap upon the entire world, performing signs and wonders with the goal of deceiving all the humans who inhabit this earth. Unclean spirits always peddle lies against the Word of God, their aim is to keep those who will be saved from sure destruction—once they know the truth—from knowing the truth that Jesus can keep them safe from the judgment of that great day of God Almighty. That great day of God Almighty—as of this writing—is still in the future, but the demonic doctrines represented by these three frogs are alive and present and have been around for centuries now leading many a strayed. That is why Jesus, knowing that many would be exposed to these demonic doctrines, warns us to be watchful and to keep His covering—His promises—on like a garment. Many will say that no one knows the time of the end. That is exactly why we need to keep watch and be ready for today many signs tells us that we may already be in them. Revelation 16:15 “Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.” Charles Darwin, Sigmund Freud and Karl Marx are great examples of how this demonic trinity has been working its way into our everyday lives. Through Darwin comes the teaching that the human body evolved from an animal which is a lie. Through Freud comes the teaching that the human mind or soul can be void of morality, that is, if we are nothing more than animals then there should be no guilt or shame nor Day of Judgment. Through the teachings of Marx comes the teachings of socialism or social justice as it is called today, which embodies the aspiration that every aspect of human life can be control by these frog-like demons behind these doctrines. 1 John 2:15-16 “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh (Darwin), the lust of the eyes (Freud) and the pride of life (Marx)—is not of the Father but is of the world.” Job 41:34 “He (Leviathan the dragon) beholds every high thing (God’s moral law with contempt); He is king over all the children of pride.” We come to the place in time, where the morality of God’s Law in viewed with contempt by many, and pride for a life style that is against God’s morality is publicly celebrated. What is the difference between humans and animals? Animals are called animals because they are animated by the spirit of life that God infused into the creation when God said let there be and there was and commanded them to be fruitful and to multiply. The human body was made alive when God infused it with the breath of God Almighty Himself directly into Adam’s nostrils and man became a living soul, created in God’s image with a fully functioning conscience. Romans 2:15-16 “Who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them in the day when God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.” Long before Moses walked down the mountain with the Ten Commandments in his hands, God had already placed the morality of His righteous law in the hearts of every living soul! Before the great flood, the fallen angels tried desperately to remove the human conscience from the physical body through all kinds of human experiments combining animal and human DNA. For the purpose of controlling the human body without it feeling guilt or regret for their actions in order to avoid God’s law of human resistance against demonic intrusion in the human soul. James 4:7 “Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.” Those demonic entities failed miserably in their attempt to recreate man into a soulless creature and are now awaiting God’s judgment; all that were left with was the dead bodies of soulless animals without immortality and deprived of the breath of life from their lungs for God drowned them all in the flood. The fruit of their labor was destroyed and prevented from rising again. Isaiah 26:12-14 “Lord, You will establish peace for us, for You have also done all our work in us. O Lord our God, masters beside You have had dominion over us; But by You only we make mention of Your name. They are dead, they will not live (no soul no resurrection); they are deceased they will not rise. Therefore You have punished and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish (no memory no soul).” God owns the souls of all men, for the soul is all the work of God in us. And even though our genetic code has been infused with the frailty and death of the body because of sin, there is immortality promised to men, not only for the soul of man but also for the physical body as well. The blessed hope is the promised resurrection of the physical body. But for the result of those who tampered with this sacred work of God into the soul of man, there will be no resurrection for their demonic product, for the trans-bodies (human-animal) that they engineered bypassing the conscience, cannot rise from the dead and will not rise from the dead for they have no soul; even all the memory of them will be destroyed forever. Daniel 2:43 “As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, THEY WILL MINGLE WITH THE SEED OF MEN; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay.” That is the kind of work that is going on today in modern science with artificial intelligence, but Daniel tells us that it will fail again. But many are the victims of these evil works, do not fall prey to them. Keep watch and clothe yourselves with the promises of God. 1 Timothy 4:1-2 “Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron.” Jesus wants us to put Him on as a garment and then He blesses those who obey Him: Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame. Paul tells us how to put on the armor of light and how to keep our garment of light on and not be deceived. Romans 13:12-14 “The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. Let us walk properly, as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.” Previous Next Home

  • BABYLON IS FALLEN | House of Faith Ministries (HoFM)

    BABYLON IS FALLEN The objective of this chapter is to explain the prophetic fall of Babylon, the great harlot of Revelation 18, as the collapse of the global system of false religion, self-worship, and materialism. It seeks to show how God’s judgment exposes the demonic infrastructure behind human corruption, idolatry, and bloodshed. The goal is to warn believers to separate themselves from Babylon’s sins, reveal the eternal destiny of demonic powers, and highlight the heavenly rejoicing over God’s righteous vengeance and justice. BABYLON IS FALLEN Pastor Marcos Marrero Objective: The objective of this chapter is to explain the prophetic fall of Babylon, the great harlot of Revelation 18, as the collapse of the global system of false religion, self-worship, and materialism. It seeks to show how God’s judgment exposes the demonic infrastructure behind human corruption, idolatry, and bloodshed. The goal is to warn believers to separate themselves from Babylon’s sins, reveal the eternal destiny of demonic powers, and highlight the heavenly rejoicing over God’s righteous vengeance and justice. Synopsis: The chapter begins with the angelic declaration in Revelation 18: “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen,” unveiling that the world’s demonic system—rooted in self-worship, false religion, secular humanism, and commercial exploitation—has been exposed and destroyed in one swift act of God’s judgment. Babylon, once a center of wealth, indulgence, and sorcery, is revealed as the dwelling place of demons and the engine of persecution against the saints. Believers are warned to “come out of her,” avoiding the sins and plagues that fall upon her, for her self-exaltation and luxury have brought God’s wrath in a single day of fire, famine, and mourning. With the demonic deception removed, many who once followed secular humanism and selfish ambition will finally recognize their spiritual misery, refuse the mark of the beast, and repent. The destruction of Babylon also collapses the global economic system, leaving the nations in despair without hope or mercy from the beast. The text ties this event to a larger biblical pattern, beginning with Cain’s jealousy and murder of Abel, showing how sin, pride, and demonic influence always demand blood. All human bloodshed, from Abel to the martyrs, cries out to God, and in Babylon’s fall, this blood is avenged. While humans are judged according to their choices within their dispensations, the demons who instigated sin are now bound to their eternal prison within Babylon. Heaven rejoices over this judgment, as seen in Revelation 19, where the multitude praises God for avenging His servants. The chapter emphasizes that participation in spiritual adultery—idolatry, self-righteousness, and false worship—always leads to destruction, while true repentance and the application of Christ’s blood deliver from demonic power. The fall of Babylon marks the triumph of God’s justice and the eternal imprisonment of the forces that have corrupted humanity throughout history. Inspired Teaching: Here is the chapter from my book Man’s Final Destiny , where I deal with the fall of the great harlot. Revelation 18:1-3 “After these things I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illuminated with his glory. And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying, ‘Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird! For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the abundance of her luxury.’” The word “illuminated” indicates that something that had been hidden is now revealed; what’s been revealed here is that the demonic infrastructure that gravitated around the worship of self has been exposed. The demons of commercialism and exploitation that pandered to the corrupt vices of the masses have now been exposed and deposed. The system of false religion and secular humanism that entangled humanity is not needed any more; is abolished in one hour and with them go all the demons that influenced all that selfishness and debauchery. Like a communist dictator, the beast will demand the total and complete sacrifice of his followers, their one and only goal from now on is to be prepared to fight against the Lamb; victory at all cost will be their hopeless cry. Revelation 18:4-8 “And I heard another voice from heaven saying, ‘Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities. Render to her just as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she has mixed, mix double for her. In the measure that she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, in the same measure give her torment and sorrow; for she says in her heart, “I sit as queen, and am no widow, and will not see sorrow.” Therefore her plagues will come in one day — death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges her.’” We need to remember that these die-hards who come out of her now were eyewitnesses to Jesus the Lamb of God coming down on the clouds of heaven and rapturing away the saints, they also lived through the five months of hell on earth and the ministry of the two witnesses. They saw the feet of Jesus split the Mount of Olives and provide a way of escape for the elect, and the raising from the dead of those who chose martyrdom. Why are these die-hards having a change of mind now? The demons that deceived them have been driven out and locked down! For the first time ever or maybe in a long time they now get to see the misery of their condition and repent by refusing to take the mark of the beast. Many of the environmentalists and secular humanists will see for the first time the demons of self-righteousness that were behind all their labors. With these demons out of the way, Satan will demand that they worship and forfeit themselves to him, for it will be known to all, that if they take the mark of the beast they will be with the devil forever. Revelation 18:14 “The fruit that your soul longed for has gone from you, and all the things which are rich and splendid have gone from you, and you shall find them no more at all.” The world’s entire economic system is destroyed in one hour and now they find themselves at the mercy of the beast and will find none. Revelation 18:23-24 “The light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore, and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For your merchants were the great men of the earth, for by your sorcery all the nations were deceived. And in her was found the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who were slain on the earth” Selfish ambition and its partnership with demonic entities is the root of all bloodshed and the engine for the persecution of the saints who refused to get in bed with the god of this world. 2 Timothy 3:1-5 “But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!” Here is the chapter from my book that follows after the judgment of the great harlot. Revelation 19:1-5 “After these things I heard a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, ‘Alleluia! Salvation and glory and honor and power belong to the Lord our God! For true and righteous are His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication; and He has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her.’ Again they said, ‘Alleluia! Her smoke rises up forever and ever!’ And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sat on the throne, saying, ‘Amen! Alleluia!’ Then a voice came from the throne, saying, ‘Praise our God, all you His servants and those who fear Him, both small and great!’” When Cain’s non-blood sacrifice was rejected by God, Cain got very angry because of jealousy over his brother, because Abel’s blood sacrifice was accepted. In order to understand all the great rejoicing in heaven over the judgment of the great harlot is imperative for us to see the tremendous influence that the demons behind the door of sin have exerted over all mankind through all the ages. Genesis 4:6-7 “So the LORD said to Cain, ‘Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.’” Sin always has an accomplice which opens a door; a person who does wrong (sins), must go through that opened door, if he or she repents and does the right thing: that is, applies the blood sacrifice (asks God for forgiveness) on the lintel and the two door posts (take our sins to the cross of Jesus for those of us today) of that opened door, then that person will disarm the demon behind the door of his power to harm them, and will gain mastery over that demon. But if pride which is rooted in self righteousness prevents them from repenting and doing the right thing, then those demonic entities will demand blood from them. That is why Cain ended up murdering his brother Abel. All shed human blood, beginning with the righteous blood of Abel and ending with the judgment of the great harlot, is crying out to God for vengeance. God’s judgment is two-fold, he judges the humans first according to the laws that applied to them in the dispensations from which they came. If they repented and made atonement for their sins, God forgives them and raises them up from the dead which was part of their judgment. If they did not repent, then they will remain dead until the final judgment which will take place at the end of one thousand years. But the demonic accomplices of humanity have never been judged yet, because once the person they enticed to sin died, they were free to torment someone else, usually a family member and continued to follow their descendants. Luke 16:27-28 “Then he said, ‘I beg you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house, for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, lest they also come to this place of torment.’” Perhaps the most frustrating thing for the saints in heaven is seeing these demonic creatures wreak havoc upon the whole of humanity with such impunity. These demons would say to Jesus: Have You come to torment us before our time. They knew that as long as man does not apply the blood of Jesus to the open door of sin, they had free range. But finally the hour of their judgment has come: this entity called Babylon the great—false religion, which was their vehicle with which they could operate freely in our earthly dwellings, has now become their eternal prison of torment. At this great sight every heavenly dweller rejoices mightily for the Lord’s vengeance is fulfilled. “He has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her. Again they said, ‘Alleluia! Her smoke rises up forever and ever!’” I hope that you are able to read the entire book, and that you are able to gain spiritual inside as to the importance of staying away from participating in spiritual adultery. Isaiah 44:20 “He feeds on ashes (those who participate in the worshipping of worthless idols); a deceived heart has turned him aside; and he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, ‘Is there not a lie in my right hand?’” Jonah 2:8 “Those who regard worthless idols forsake their own Mercy.” Previous Next Home

  • DO YOU KNOW HIS LOVE | House of Faith Ministries (HoFM)

    DO YOU KNOW HIS LOVE Written Teaching Minister Lisa Kane September 12, 2024 Objective The purpose of this teaching is to help believers grasp the depth of God’s love revealed through Christ’s sacrifice, understanding redemption as both a legal and spiritual restoration. By exploring Scripture, the message aims to show how Jesus’ blood fulfilled the law, paid the ransom for sin, and restored believers as children of God, leading to transformation of the heart, mind, and spirit. Synopsis In Do You Know His Love, Lisa Kane opens with Luke 23:46, reflecting on Jesus commending His spirit into the Father’s hands as the ultimate act of trust and love. The teaching examines redemption through passages in Psalms, Galatians, Titus, 1 Peter, and Romans, showing that Christ’s sacrifice was foretold, fulfilled, and remains the central act of God’s covenant love. The message highlights redemption as a ransom paid to release humanity from the dominion of sin, death, and the curse of the law. Through the imagery of Jubilee, Lisa explains how Jesus restored believers to their rightful inheritance as children and heirs of God. The teaching emphasizes that salvation is a gift—not earned by works—but received through confession and faith in Christ. Listeners are urged to let God’s love penetrate deeply, transforming their emotions, thoughts, and actions, producing zeal for good works and a testimony of His power. Lisa stresses the importance of speaking faith, confessing Christ openly, and remembering the cross as the supreme demonstration of divine love. The message closes with an invitation to salvation through the sinner’s prayer, calling all to embrace Christ’s redeeming love and to live watchfully in expectation of His return. Written and/or Transcribed Teaching from Video Hello and welcome to the House of Faith Ministries. I'm Lisa Kain and I'm recording this message on Thursday, September 12th, 2024. Welcome. Let's open up in a word of prayer. Father God, we lift you up and we bless your word. We bless you and we thank you for your word. Move me aside. Let your Holy Spirit do the talking here, Father God, and show us the love that you have demonstrated for us. Thank you, Father God. and let that love penetrate and let it transform us. So much so that as we walk in your word, everyone who sees us will know that it is your love that is the power behind everything that is happening in the name of Jesus we pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. God bless you. Welcome. I'm grateful that you are here. I hope that you are blessed by this content. Share it with anyone you like. Uh this is uh good teaching. Good teaching. So I hope you en enjoy it. Let's go to our opening scripture here. This message is called Do You Know His Love. And our opening scripture here is in Luke 23:46. And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, "Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit." And having said thus, he gave up the ghost. So, just to kind of reiterate a little bit of how I teach, what you're seeing here is the bolded words are the uh the original words that were used in the translation from the original to the King James in the English. And so that word could have other meanings. They could have used other words in that place. So what I do is when I bold the word in the screen that means that's the word in the Bible King James version but the ones after in the parentheses are other meanings of the word. So example here for father into thy hands I command I place alongside I present I deposit my spirit. In other words he's depositing his spirit into the hands of God. And having said thus he gave up the ghost or expired. So that's how I teach. That's how I present the scriptures to you and everything is done through the King James version. Now that's our opening scripture. So what I want to do is I want to share with you um an interesting teaching uh talking about the love of God. I'm asking you do you know his love? purpose I have for this teaching is I hope that by understanding through knowledge and what Christ did for us that it would change you by his love that the change the transformation would be emotional spiritual maybe even cause you on the inside to just break um I've been through that and I know that when you get this it penetrates deep into the heart where your thoughts and your feelings are and It transforms you. I am hoping beyond all hope that you grasp this and get it. Now remember, it's not by might nor by power. It is by his spirit. So I've been praying and asking the spirit to work through you, the listener, for this teaching. Okay? So be ready, be prepared, and listen to what the word of God is telling us today. Amen. So let's go to Psalm 49:15. But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave. For he shall receive me. Saha. Now let's add those extra words in because I really want you to get this. But God will redeem or sever ransom, release, preserve my soul from the power or the hand and dominion of the grave which is Hades or the world of the dead. For he shall receive or take me. Sila sa not sure exactly how to pronounce sa and they don't really know what the word sa means but a lot of theologians take that as to pause and think on this but what I want you to see what the psalmist is saying here is redemption means to pay the ransom for whatever is being held captive in this case the world is what's been held by been held captive by the grave and death but by Jesus giving up his blood and life on the cross. He paid that ransom. And the psalmist in the Old Testament, thousand so years before Jesus went to the cross, he's talking about the redeemer because the redeemer has been prophesied to do this and Jesus did it. Let's go to Psalm 103:4. Who redeemth thy life from destruction? Who crowneth thee with loving kindness and tender mercies? Now let's read it with the extra words. Who redeemth? Look at this word next to kin by back thy life from destruction or the pit corruption grave. Who crowneth which means encircle compass thee with loving kindness. Favor and tender mercies compassion. Oh this is so good. So here I want you to notice something. Redeemer. Redeemth here means it has another flavor to it. Next of kin. You see what Jesus is doing when he redeems us. He's following the process Israel follows through the process of Jubilee. If you go look at Leviticus 20 and it's about verses 8 through13, you're going to find that the Jubilee is a year of rest and it happens every 50th year. And it's a not only a year of rest. So they do not eat their crops because it's already been provided. Everything was doubly provided in the 49th year. So that double portion comes out in the 49th year so that you can rest in the 50th year. But what happens is every slave, every person who had sold themselves in that 50th year is given back to the original owners. The land that was sold any time in that time frame was given back to the original owner. Jesus is paying this price as if a 50th year of Jubilee, giving us back the authority that we had with Adam and Eve before Adam and Eve disobeyed God and fell. So when this word here says next of kin, remember we are a child of God. We are joint hes with Christ. So this puts us back into eternity with Christ, not the grave, not death. The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is life. And if you go follow that, you will see that through repentance, because of the redemption of what Jesus did, we have eternity with Christ and not death, not a dying at hell. And I love how he used the word crown there, that that word crown is placed on our heads, but it encompasses us with his favor and compassion. That's absolutely amazing. You have got to see what Christ did in this moment on the cross. He died that we might be saved. Let's go read Galatians 3:13-14. Christ hath redeemed by a ransom rescue us from the curse of the law being made a curse for us. For it is written, cursed is everyone that hangeth on a tree. That the blessing which is a fine speaking elegance of language of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ. that we might receive the promise, which is an announcement, a pledge of the spirit through faith or persuasion, moral conviction. So, what's happening here is you're seeing that Paul is reiterating what the psalmist said in in both Psalm 49:15 and Psalm 103:4. He's stating that Christ took the curse and paid it in full, buying us back from the law and placing us back into the promises or these announcements given to Abraham that we are joint hes in. So remember when he said next of kin, he is restoring us back to the state that Adam and Eve had before they fell, which is giving us the authority now to overcome. Because see, he didn't remove the law and he didn't um take away the law. You have to understand what the Lord did here. See, God is a God of rightness, justice. He established the law. So Jesus had to fulfill the law because none of us could do it. The law told us that we were sinners and we couldn't fulfill it. So, you had to have Christ do what he did because that was what God called for and he did it. But he has to leave it until he completes his entire plan that he has for us in this world. You can go look at that in Daniel 9:24. He's going to abolish sin. He's going to take care of all of this. But because we are in a justice system, we have to wait out the court system of what he's doing. Now, I want you to also notice something that Paul is uh saying here might be saved. It's a choice. You can receive this spirit, which is the spirit of Christ through faith by believing. And it is by this faith that we can know that our salvation is secure in Christ. But you can also walk away. That's incredible. So Christ not only did this to save the world, but he also did it knowing that some would not believe, some would not accept. And he still did it so that the rest of us who want to believe can get it. Oh, how precious, precious this is. This is so powerful. Let's go to Galatians now 4:es 4-6. But when the fullness or completion of the time was come, God sent forth or he sent him on a mission. He dispatched his son made of a woman made under the law to redeem, buy up, ransom us them that were under that law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the spirit of his son into your hearts, which is where the thoughts or feelings are crying, "Aba, father." Oh, I hope you are getting this. What he has done, God purposely sent his son as a man born of a woman to pay the ransom and fulfilled that law that we couldn't do. You know, Satan deceived Adam and Eve and then ever since they fell, we've been born under this curse generation after generation. But it is by this law that we were held captive because we were accused of our sins by the devil in the court system. He accused us. But Jesus, part of his plan was to set the captives free. So he freed us those that choose to believe in Christ and and when you choose because you're choosing based off of knowledge. Yes, the Holy Spirit is moving through you, but he's planting this knowledge in your mind, in your heart, your thoughts, and your feelings. And he's telling you, "This is right." And you're sitting there listening to it going, "Yeah, that is right. I could tell it's right." And then you choose to believe. Now with that knowledge when we choose to believe our hearts are at a point where now we start expressing the thoughts and the feelings of what Christ did. And at that moment that's when we realize the impact of his love for us. He went to that cross. He wore a crown of thorns. He bled from the top of his head all the way to the bottom of his feet. The blood went on that cross on that piece of wood. That was a curse. Blood went on that. It traveled down because he had so much blood. When they pierced him inside that water and blood flowed. When that water went down that cross, it hit the ground. It shook the ground. And if you believe what Ron Wyatt said, he found the ark of the covenant right under that spot. The blood landed on the mercy seat, fulfilling the law that God established. That's love. Oh, I hope you're getting it. Because see, this is where we can know that we are free. We're no longer obligated to live under that law. We are free to live Christlike. We are free to live in the gift of God's life and what he did to us. Let's go look at Titus 2:14. Who gave himself for us that he might, here's that word might, redeem, ransom us from all iniquity. Look at what this word iniquity means. Illegality and purify unto himself a peculiar which were being beyond usual people zealous of good works. Oh, so what is that saying? The word iniquity means illegality. And that's what we're charged with is the iniquities of our sin. And that is where it's now we're realizing we are illegally here until we have a redemption or a redeemer or a pardon for our sins. It's like we're illegally here on this earth until we receive Christ. So this is the justice system that God has established and he works with. It means his son paid that ransom for anything we've done illegally against God. That redemption is what sets us free. That freedom causes our hearts and thoughts and feelings to change, transform. We become zealous for the goodness of things because we want to do good works. And it starts with Christ understanding what he did at the cross. That's the power of the cross. and what he did to our hearts and those good works follow. That's what we manifest once we get it. We manifest the good works because we're understanding. We have that knowledge of the love that he did for us. And we don't want to belittle it. We don't want to take it for granted. We don't want to treat it vain. This is precious that we can't be blas about it. We got to be zealous for the goodness of him. And when we do those good things, we show the world because we're sharing a testimony that God is the one who changed us on the inside. And that's where the power is. This is where the true power of God resides. It's within us because we got it. And so eventually people will get it and they'll be like, "Wow, Jesus did that for me. He did it for the whole world." Yes, but he did it for me. When you get it, oh, it's incredible. Let's go to First Peter. We're going to be in chapter 1 18- 21. For as much as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, and corruptable things are things that decay. They're perishable like or as silver and gold from your vain empty conversation received by tradition from your fathers. See, when your fathers teach you how to do things, they they tell you do it this way, do it that way. But if you don't have the love from Christ in there to do it is vain. It's empty. You can go read 1 Corinthians 13 on that verse uh 19. but with the precious which is valuable blood of Christ as of a lamb without blemish and without spot. who verily has fore ordained to know before him before the foundation or the conception of the world, but was manifest rendered apparent in these last times for you who by him do believe have faith in God that raised him up from the dead and gave him glory that your faith which is your persuasion, credence and hope, your expectation might be in God. Let's talk about that for a moment. Let's see what Peter's saying. Peter is establishing the value of God's love here. He's telling us that it isn't corruptible things that saves us. It's the blood of Jesus that paid the ransom. So many people want to do good things. They want to show God how worthy they are by their works. The thing is is it's a gift from God himself. He dispatched. He sent his son forth and said, "Go save them." And Jesus said, "I got you. I'm going to do this." And he went, "It's a gift. You don't have to do anything but believe." And yet, we want to go do works. I want to see how many people I can serve food to. I want to see how many services I can go to in a week. I want to see how much I can pray and be that better prayer and so on and so forth. And yet, it has nothing to do with that. Your salvation is of the Lord and it is a free gift. So we need to remember what the blood and the power of the cross of what Jesus did. This is why we take holy communion. This is one way to show that we remember Jesus on the cross because remember he commanded us this do in remembrance of me. Another way to acknowledge his love for us which is more important than anything else is that we shouldn't do things that are vain or empty that mean nothing. Don't take it for granted, but do those good things. And it it's something you want to do because you're portraying Christ through your actions. Your actions are being your testimony, fulfillment of the love of Christ in our hearts, but you're doing it without attitude, without complaint. You're doing it because you want to and you desire it. And you know, you're doing it for God. And this is the manifestation and the testifimmony that you're testifying through the knowledge that God designed this redemption long before the conception of the world. You are acting it out with a beautiful love and heart because that's what God does. He transforms us. And he made it, by the way, he made this apparent by prophesying it long ago through the psalmist and the prophets for us to know, to know his redemption and have this knowledge manifested in us to be the example that others can look to and be saved today. Because that's exactly what happened here. That the psalmist knew there was a redeemer, but he didn't know his name. He just knew God the father. Which remember what Jesus says, if you know me, you know the father. So that means if you knew the father, you knew Jesus. So the Old Testament had it just like the New Testament. And they can walk in that belief. They can walk in that faith. And they knew. And so God had separated those that died back then. You went to a place called paradise if you were a believer in God. And when Jesus was crucified on the cross, he descended and kicked out the gates of hell. And he grabbed those out of paradise. And by the way, on his way up, he stopped to talk to Mary Magdalene. You can go read this, and I just taught on this a few times now. But he stops with all those souls behind him, billions, and he he says to Mary Magdalene, "My God, your God, my father, your father, because Jesus restored us as the next of kin in the right standing with Christ, joint hes. We are brothers and sisters with Christ." Now, that's the power of what Jesus did on the cross. That's the love. Understand the word love in in the English language doesn't do it justice. It doesn't uh demonstrate the type of love that God is doing here. closest thing we have in our language is probably the the love of a mother to a child because um that mother she knows the child is so fragile she's holding the child in her hands who is fragile that child cannot do anything of its own she is morally obligated to take care of that child Jesus was morally obligated to come to our salvation to save us. And he did it. He did it. And he saved us. Now, I want you to see something here that's so powerful. Look at Romans 10:13. For whosoever, that is all whole. Everyone shall call upon, they're entitled. They can invoke the name, the authority of the Lord shall be saved, delivered, healed, preserved. That is what we have. We anyone who confesses who has who calls invokes on God, save me Jesus. I'm telling you, and if they're not doing it in vain, they're doing it in with the intention of God, I need you to save me. Whether they're calling on God the Father or Jesus the Son of God, either way, anyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. You saw that happen here. In fact, it goes a little deeper. Let's see it in Romans 10. uh verses 9 and 10. We're going to go back a little bit in this this chapter says that if you if thou shalt confess or acknowledge with thy mouth your language the Lord who is supreme in authority Jesus and shalt believe you have faith in your heart the thoughts and the feelings because see it starts with knowledge thoughts and feelings that's where it starts so you're you're hearing you're feeling the thoughts and feelings that God raised awakened him from the dead, thou shalt be saved, delivered, protected, healed, preserved. Look what it says. For with the heart, that's your hearts and feelings. That's your thoughts and feelings. Man believeth unto righteousness, which is justification. You are just with your thoughts and feelings. You can have, you have the right to be just because you know that you called on the name of Jesus. And you know that when you did it, you had to have faith because you can't see that you're calling on him. I mean, you can't see him. He's not there. So, you're calling on him in faith, which is what activates God. This is so that manifests it. That pulls the thoughts and feelings. But look what else it says. And with the mouth, confession is made into salvation. So when you speak it, because everything is spoken by our mouths, this is what affects us. This is what takes us to that next level is when you speak scripture into your situation. When you speak the name of Jesus and you're calling on him whether you say anything or not, your thoughts, your hearts, your feeling is right there, it is manifesting inside of you through the anointing of the Holy Spirit. That is the Holy Spirit moving through you through his love of what he did on the cross. Even if you don't grasp it at that moment, that's what he did. So, we are saved by confession of our mouths, speaking out loud what Christ did to us because we're speaking to all the witnesses around us. Who's around us? God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit, angels, demons, and the like. They're watching us. There are witnesses. So whether you have anybody else around you, whether you're in the bathroom, in the toilet, and you call on God, and no one else is around you, God is your witness. Oh, I hope you're getting that. And with that confession, that means you're using your language of faith, and you're manifesting salvation, healing, deliverance, and preservation within yourselves. And others can do this, too. Anyone can do this. Anyone could call upon the name of the Lord. And see, you don't have to just do it for salvation of eternal life. That's for even an immediate situation. If you walk into the bank and a bank robbery takes place, the name of Jesus has the authority there. He will save you, preserve you, heal you, deliver you of anything. Like I said, bank robbery, you're dealing with, you're you're worried about your soul or spirit on the inside, the just call on the name of Jesus. He saves you. That's what he did. Let's go look at the basics of what he did here in John 3 15-17. That whosoever believeth in him should not perish. Look at the word perish. It means destroy fully, lose, die, but have eternal or perpetual life. For God so loved, there's that word love. See, it's social, moral, sense, obligation. He was obligated. He loved the world. He obligated. He He kept his obligation to the world cuz you know what? God could have stopped everything long ago when Adam and Eve messed up. He could have said, "We're done. He almost did it with the flood, but he saw Noah. He saw something there." Maybe he was looking at the future from that moment. He saw Lisa, me, praising him, thanking him for saving me. Maybe he did the same for you. What a thought to think of. and to have in your heart to know that this is what he did because of his love. For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes or has faith in him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God sent not his son into the world to condemn, decide, or punish the world, but that the world through him might be saved. There's that word saved. Save, deliver, protect, heal, preserve, and might because it is a choice. It is a choice. This is what we have based on what God did. This is what love is. The laying down of one's life to save another. Christ demonstrated that love. And we should not take it for rain or granted or empty. We should let that love fill our hearts, our thoughts, and our feelings. let it manifest us emotionally in him so that we're getting it. Because that is where the Holy Spirit does the most work because once the hardenness of your heart, your stiff neckness if you will, is broken, the Holy Spirit's in there and he's got you and he's going to continue to work in you and change you, transform you. And this helps us remember the power of the cross of what Jesus did. That Holy Spirit moving in us, transforming us. we remember and we know it. So even though we have down times or slow times or we're not in the word for a moment or two, Jesus is always there. The Holy Spirit is always there. This is how much God loves us. And I hope you get it because when you get it, you should be an emotional wreck. But you know that you're saved by his actions. Catch his love and his salvation now. Don't wait. We don't know when he will return. And he is returning. We need to be ready and watchful for his return. And there is no better time now than to get saved. Amen. Let's say the sinner's prayer together. I'm going to say it. I'll pause and allow you to speak it and let's close in this sinner's prayer. Amen. Dear Jesus, we ask you to come into our hearts where our thoughts and feelings are. And we ask you to forgive us of our sin, of our iniquity, of our illegal status. And we ask you to be our Lord and Savior and to help us be saved, delivered, healed, and preserved in anything we face. Thank you. In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. God bless you. I hope you are blessed. Share this message with others who need to hear and need to know what God love God's love is. And I will see you in the next message. Bye-bye. Home Watch the Video Teaching

  • BEHOLD, THE LAMB OF GOD | House of Faith Ministries (HoFM)

    BEHOLD, THE LAMB OF GOD Written Teaching Minister Lisa Kane January 19, 2025 Objective The objective of this message is to help believers gain a deeper understanding of Jesus as the Lamb of God, whose sacrificial death fulfills the Old Testament foreshadowing of the Passover lamb. It seeks to strengthen faith in the power of His blood to redeem, protect, and deliver from destruction, while encouraging believers to walk daily in the assurance of His covenant and covering. Synopsis This teaching explores the meaning and significance of John’s proclamation, “Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world” (John 1:29). It explains how Jesus’ role as the sacrificial Lamb was foreshadowed in the Passover account of Exodus, where the blood of the lamb marked the homes of Israel for protection from the destroyer. The message draws connections between the Old Testament shadow and the New Testament fulfillment, showing how Jesus’ crucifixion, His shed blood, and the Last Supper instituted the new covenant. Just as the Israelites were preserved by the lamb’s blood on their doorposts, believers today are covered by the blood of Christ, which speaks a better word than Abel’s blood and causes destruction, curses, and judgment to pass over. Through the cross, Jesus fulfilled the law, redeemed humanity, and provided believers with protection, pardon, and victory. Communion is presented as a continual reminder of His sacrifice and covenant, sealing believers under His covering. The message closes with a call to humility, repentance, and faith, urging listeners to stand firm in Christ’s redeeming blood and look forward to His return—not only as the Lamb but also as the coming King. Written and/or Transcribed Teaching from Video Hello and welcome to the House of Faith Ministries. I'm Lisa Kane and I'm recording this message on Sunday, January 19th, 2025. Welcome. Glad you can join us. Let's open up in a word of prayer. Father God, we thank you for your word and we bless your word. Let your word not return void. And Father God, I pray that we have a better understanding of the blood of the lamb. That we have a better understanding of your hedge of protection around us. that we can walk and believe in the anointing of your word and know that you've got our back and that we can speak your word and that we can walk away from destruction. Thank you, Lord, for opening our minds to this and bringing up our level of faith. Thank you, Lord, in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. I'm very excited about this message. This is called Behold the Lamb of God. Let's go to our opening scripture here. John 1:29. The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him and say, "Behold the lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world." Ah, he takes away the sin of the world. I love that. So, let's stop for a minute though and think about this for a moment because John knew something that the Israelites should have known and they didn't know. You see, John saw him as the lamb of God and said, "He's coming to take away the sin of the world." But all the Israelites, I think all of them if not most of them were expecting a king. And Jesus said, "No, no, no. He he came as the lamb of God, but he took he came as a king as well, but he took the kingdom off for a moment. Went to the cross and died as the lamb of God, shedding his blood and redeeming us, taking away the sin of the world, which is what John prophesied because it had to be done. So what is the lamb of God? What why did that happen first? Because you know Jesus is coming back a second time and he's coming as king and he didn't the first time which perplexed the Israelites. They don't understand it but God he explains it and Jesus explained it and he's showing us what he is as the lamb of God. So, let's look at who the lamb of God is and what he did did for us because when you get it, oh my goodness gracious, you you're just you're going to understand that the destroyer can never ever touch you. Oh, this is good. So, let's go to Exodus. Let's look at the Passover because the lamb of God is Passover. So, we're going to start here in Exodus 12 3 and 6. Speak ye unto the congregation. Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel. God is talking to Moses. So, he's telling Moses saying, "In the 10th day of this month, they shall take to them every man a lamb according to the house of their fathers a lamb for a house." Now, uh he explains more. You can go read the whole chapter. I don't have the whole time to to read the chapter here, but I would like to encourage you to do it. He's going to tell you how much of a lamb you may need. You may have to share with your neighbor. Let's say you're only two people in one house, so you know, you can't eat an entire lamb, but you're going to have to eat it all. So the whole point of having this lamb is to eat it all. So go down to verse six. And ye shall keep it until the 14th day of the same month. And the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening. Wait, wait, wait, wait. So you tell Moses, I want you all to take a lamb into your house. They bring a lamb into their house and that lamb is there for four days and then you have to kill it. which is Jesus came down to the earth and he was here for a while. We kept him on the earth. He was here. He kept himself here and then he had to be crucified. Killed. Well, the lamb is killed in each household. Now, the Now, remember, let's let's do a little overall hierarchy stuff here for just a moment. The Old Testament is a shadow of where Jesus was coming. man going and going to do what he was going to do. It shadowed it. It foretold us but a mystery. Whereas the New Testament reveals all the mystery. But the other part of this is that on the earth, everything on the earth is a shadow of everything in heaven. So like uh Moses had to create or uh yeah make create uh the ark of the covenant which has a mercy seat on it. Well, in the heavens there is an ark of the covenant. There's an arc and on there is the mercy seat. And by the way, the blood of Jesus is on that mercy seat. It's also on the one on earth. So this is they they're interacted with one another. So going back to look at the lamb of God, the lamb that the Israelites had to use to come out of Egypt. This is very important. So let's read a little bit more about uh what's going on and why God is setting up this Passover. Uh verse 7. And they shall take of the blood and strike it on the two sideposts and on the upper doorpost of the house houses wherein they shall eat it. And they shall eat the flesh in that night. Roast with fire and unleaven bread and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. So he's saying need you to kill the lamb. Then I want you to take its blood, put it on each of the sidepost. And then I want you to put it on the lentil. And then I want you to eat it all. So we have Jesus who went to the cross. you know, he he went to the cross and he he died. Um, and his body was broken and he was he bled and we take holy communion where we take the unleaven bread or a cracker and we break it. It's bruising. It's got discoloration on it when you bake it. So, it looks like it's bruised. And then you partake of that. You eat it symbolically. you drink of the wine which is the symbol of his blood. This is what he did with the um the last supper. So, and he did it before he went to the cross. So, he was showing him what needed to be done. Well, keep in mind they were shown this at the Passover. So, let's continue on here in verse 12. For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night. What's going on here? Because let's look at this. Now, if you read everything, the the Egyptians had 10 plagues against them. So, we're talking about the 10th plague, the nine plagues, the lice, the frogs, and so forth. You can go read about the plagues. The 10th plague, God is coming in to take the firstborn son of all the people and of all the land. So firstborn cow, male cow, he was taken. Um if he but God who says he's going to do all this, he said, "I need to protect you, Israel." So he's giving Israel some protection because God says, "My spirit is coming to destroy." He's going to take the firstborn. Why? Why does the firstborn need to be taken? Do you remember what Pharaoh did? He told the midwives to kill all the maleborn children of Israel because they thought they were getting too great because they were slaves and they couldn't control them any longer. And so now God decides to demonstrate his power by hardening Pharaoh's heart. And so he sent these 10 plagues and the 10th one was the killer. This was the one. But see, God has to send his destroyer to everyone. The law is for everyone. Not just for Jesus to fulfill it and for us to let it go. Okay, let's read these scriptures. Let's keep that in the back of our mind as we read these scriptures. I really want you to get this. For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast. and against all the gods of Egypt, I will execute judgment. I am the Lord, and the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you when I smite the land of Egypt." Okay? Want you to get this. So he's telling them, "Put the blood on your doorpost and on the lentil and you go inside your home. You stay there." So during the night, the spirit of the Lord, spirit of destruction, the destroyer comes and he takes all the firstborn sons that were in a home or out in the field that were not covered or in the doorway of the blood. Okay, let's look a little further about this because I want you to get it. In um Luke says, "Now the feast of unleven bread drew nigh which is called the Passover." So when God passed over these houses, his spirit passed over the houses, it became a feast, a celebration that they needed to celebrate. So the Israelites, they have the blood covering over them every year by putting the blood on their post and on their lentil. And the spirit of God passes over them. So Jesus is the lamb of God. He's the lamb that had to be killed. It was in their feast. But you know, remember the Old Testament is a mystery. So they didn't understand what was going on. So as Jesus came and he had the last supper with his disciples, he's the Passover. So he's becoming the Passover. Let's take a look at that last supper a little bit more. 22 Luke 22:es 1 and 2 and then verse 7. Now the feast of unleven bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover, and the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him, for they feared the people. Then came the day of unleven bread when the Passover must be killed. So Jesus is going to be killed on Passover because he is the Passover lamb. And keep in mind uh Caiaphas, he's the one who kind of prophesied we need to kill the one before it ruins the many. So this is if you go read all of that that's in John, you'll be able to see all the manipulation, everything that's going on, but not just like by the Pharisees and the priests, but by Jesus, too. He's manipulating the whole thing to make certain he gets to that cross. That was his agenda. You see, he came, yes, as a king, but he had to lay down his kingdom and stand up as the lamb of God and take away the sin of the world first, which is what he did. Luke 22:14. And when the hour was come, he sat down and the twel apostles with him. And he said unto them, with desire, I have desired to eat the Passover with you before I suffer. For I say unto you, I will not anymore eat thereof until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. And he took the cup and gave thanks and said, Take this and divide it among yourselves. For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God shall come. And he took bread and gave thanks and broke it and gave unto them saying this is my body which is given for you this do in remembrance of me. This or likewise also the cup after supper saying this cup is the new testament in my blood which is shed for you. Now we know that he just had holy communion with his disciples the last supper. So he says, "Break this is my body." And then he says, "Drink this is my blood." Now we know he got to the cross. We know he was crucified. He um had a crown of thorns placed on his head. He was scorged or whi whipped in his back, 39 lashes I believe it is, and he was torn up in his back. Uh they had nailed his hands and his feet to the cross, and he bled from those areas. But and and the whole point of the cross, by the way, is suffocation at its crulest, if you ask me. But basically, when they pin your feet down, there's a little um shelf for you to be able to push yourself up because when you are on the cross and you let you loosen your muscles, it compresses the lungs. You can't breathe. So, in order to breathe, you had to push yourself up, take a breath, and then collapse. And it got harder and harder because every time you push yourself up on a broken heel, bruised heel. If you go look at the curses against the Satan in Genesis, you will see that Jesus heel was bruised. Well, when he pushes himself up on that bruised heel that's hurting, it's in he's in pain. He's in a lot of pain. He has to take his breath in that pain and then come down. Now, what's going on in his body is a whole lot of things. He's suffocating, which his heart is working twice as fast, if not quadruple fast. You know, it's moving to try to get enough oxygen to the brain to keep the brain alive. So, the rest of the body starts shutting down. And it got to the point where the the um heart is pumping so fast, so hard that the water and the blood separate. So when the centurion came because they could not have people uh on the cross for Passover, he broke the legs of the two thieves and then he stabbed Jesus because he it looked like Jesus was already dead. So he is just going to make certain. So he stabs him in his side and blood and water flowed. And when that blood hit the ground, it shook the ground. And with that cross standing there, it split the ground. That blood went down into the ground and it landed on the mercy seat. The uh ark of the covenant on the earth is hidden underneath that cross and the mercy seat landed there. It was also placed on the mercy seat in heaven. And Jesus took away the sin of the world. Now what does that mean? What where does this go? Because I want you to see something here that I think is powerful. Let's read the next scripture first. Says Hebrews 4:12:24, "And to Jesus the mediator." He's the go-between of the new covenant contract and to the blood of sprinkling that speaketh better things than that of Abel. Abel is the when you are killed, your blood is on the ground and it is calling out to God for revenge. Avenge me. Avenge me. Well, that avenging needs to be met. So, God hears that. We don't, but he does. So here, he had to come and now shed his own blood. So what does this do? You see, God has his law. He can't take the law back. The law is the law, and someone had to meet that law. Well, no, none of us could. You can try as hard as you can to follow the Ten Commandments. I'm going tell you right now, you're going to fail. The Ten Commandments tells us we're failures. But Jesus says, "I'm not a failure. I'll fulfill it." And here's what he did. So when he, the lamb, the lamb of God, got up on the cross and shed his blood, he said, "I want you to put my blood on the post of your door of your heart and on the lentil of your heart. and I'm going to pass over you when it comes to judgment for sin. That's what the lamb of God is. We have the blood of the lamb over us. Now, how does this work? Let's let's look at this. remember uh Rahab and um the walls of Jericho coming down. Remember what the spies told her to do? Put a scarlet red thread out your window. And see when the Israelites, the priest, and they sh they blew the trumpet and they shouted and the walls came tumbling down. The only wall that did not come tumbling down was Rahab. And she had her whole father's household in there with her. They survived and they were able to come out cuz there's a spirit of destruction that went against the walls of Jericho and those walls had to fall. But because that destroying spirit had to go hit all the walls, the destroying spirit knows that if it sees the blood, it sees the red, it has to pass over. It's required by God because that's how the rule is set up. The rule is set up that if I deserve death against me because maybe I killed somebody and that death is supposed to come against me because it's a curse. It comes back at you. A lot of people don't understand the curses. But when that curse comes back at you, if you have the blood of Jesus over your heart, it has to pass over you because that is what the new covenant, the new contract is all about. So when we partake of holy communion and we take that bread and we re we do this in remembrance of what Jesus did on the cross. We're remembering him on the cross. We're seeing him on the cross. We're remembering everything he went to. That tells us he's going to pass over us. That's what holy communion is about. That's what the lamb of God is. This is what he had to do first. And this is a good thing because I'm going to tell you right now, there's so many curses that are coming against us. We are living in a land of sin. We are vexed by what's going on out here. But all those consequences have to pass over us because we have the blood of the lamb on us. Oh, this is awesome. Hebrews 10:12-17. But this man, after he offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God, from henceforth, expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. For by one offering he hath perfected forever them that are sanctified, or to made made holy, made holy. We are made holy because of his one sacrifice. Continuing on in verse 15, whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us. For after that he had said before, this is the covenant contract that I will make with them after those days, sayeth the Lord. I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them, and their sins or offense, and iniquities or illegality will I remember no more. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. He is the lamb of God and he passes over us and he doesn't remember our sins and illegalities anymore. We are legal. You see the blood of the lamb had to fulfill the law. So it had to go on the post had to go on the lentil of that gateway so that when the destruction was coming, woo, that destruction stopped and says there's blood here. I can't go that way. I have to pass over. Meaning, you cannot be destroyed. The gates of hell shall not prevail against the church. You are the church. By the way, your body is the temple of God. So now when you take holy communion, your heart's post has the blood on the left and the right and on the lentil and nothing can come against you. Nothing can break through. It has to pass over because these are God's destructions. God is the He's the spirit of the Lord is the Lord that comes in. The spirit that comes in to destroy. He's gonna destroy. He goes after, but you have protection against that because he says, "I give you my son and I give his blood to redeem you, to pardon you, to free you. You are covered with that blood and you do not have any more destruction against you." What is destruction? What is destroying? Cancer kills. Sickness kills. financial issues kill. But God says, "I will pass over you because behold the lamb of God. Jesus our redeemer came and he shed his blood for us, for you and me. He is the lamb of God. He fulfilled the law. He gave us a way out. He pardoned us. He redeemed us. Does this mean I go on continuing to sin? I do my best to stop. But I'm in the flesh. But here's the thing that I can take from this. When I know that the destroyer can't mess with me, that means I can't die from that. I love it when Paul says, "Oh, death or death were interesting." Which he's quoting the Old Testament. And I don't remember who he's quoting, but you can go look that up. When he says that, that's the most powerful thing because now we come to the realization as a believer in Christ, this stuff can't get me. Remember, what's on the earth is a shadow of what's in heaven. So when Jesus says, "I give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth is bound in heaven. Whatever you loose on earth is loose in heaven." The two work together. And in the heaven, the blood of the redeemer of the lamb of God is already on the mercy seat. And that blood is over you, causing the destroyer to pass over you. You no longer have to deal with the corrupt. In fact, you can wake up every morning. His mercies are new every morning. And you can stand there and says, you know what? I'm going to have a great day. And I'm going to have this great day because the Lord has provided it. He's already blessed today. I'm on his side and he's got his covering protecting me. So, whoever's talking behind your back about you or who's ever trying to bring you down or who's ever trying to attack you mentally, physically, whatever the situation may be, guess what? You get to look up and say, "Behold the lamb of God. Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Jesus is the son of God. Jesus's blood is on the doorpost and the lentil of me. So I am inside the house because I'm a temple of God. I'm on the inside of the house and the doors are covered with the blood of Jesus and no destroyer. Nothing can get me. Nothing can touch me. I hope you get this. And if things happen, they're happening now for a reason. Meaning God is up to something with you. He's talking to you. He's trying to get your attention. And whatever the situation may be that you're dealing with, the first thing always, always, always the first thing, humble yourself before the Lord. Go before him and say, "I'm sorry. I messed up." You see, once you do that, that's where that destroyer has to back off. the attack has to back up. You know what? I had CO I had CO uh at Christmas time at the end of that year. And I remember I put up a Christmas tree and I the Lord clearly told me not to do it and I did it anyways. And uh I I was sick as a dog. I mean I was I was sick and those three days I and I was praying and humbling. Okay, let me just simply say I was praying and I couldn't really cry too hard because I couldn't breathe. That was my issue. I couldn't breathe. I don't know. I I I'm just like, Lord, you know, I I'm having to trust in you on this. I need you, but if you're going to take me, don't let me suffer. Just take me and send me home. And there I am repenting, humbling myself because that's what we're supposed to do. That's what the scriptures tells. I want you to come back. He says, "Come back. come back. So 3 days in and I remember I don't remember was that evening or the next morning but I think it was that evening I all of a sudden I was like breathing fine and it was almost like instantaneous and it was even weirder because it felt like in my lungs like I couldn't um get to because I was shallow breathing those three days. I couldn't breathe any it was like a there was a a barrier there. I couldn't get past this barrier. But three days, all of a sudden, I can get past this barrier. And then, of course, you have to retrain your lungs to get back to breathing. So, I was having to breathe deep, was taking that inhaler, try to get the medicine down into the bottom of my lungs, but I was it it it almost cleared up instantly. I was like, "Wow, thank you, Lord." And my life has changed drastically since then. You know, I am definitely being obedient to the word of God. And I was like, "Okay, Lord, you want me to be this way? I want to be this way too. He wants to bless me. I want his blessings. You see, I know that he is my creator. I know that he has made a way for me to come out of the consequences because I'm going to tell you right now, we were born and conceived in sin. So, I know that Jesus took care of that and it was a free gift. So now I get to come before him and humble myself before him and say thank you. And that's what I do. He's my redeemer. He's the lamb of God first. Now he's coming back as king. And boy, do I look forward to that day. I don't look forward to what's going to happen in between. But the end result is that God has a plan. And that end plan is drastic. So eventually all of us are going to end up on the other side. So the question is where do you want to end up on the other side? You want to end up in the presence of God in heaven or do you want to end up in hell? Do you want to blame all this on him and just you know it's his fault. That's between you and God. You have the right to do that if you want. You're angry with him. You hate him or whatever. You go talk to him. He wants to hear from you. But have an open mind when you find out the truth and you realize the truth and that he is your lord over your heart and so that your gate, your body is covered by the blood of Jesus. Make sure you take your holy communion too. Amen. Let's close in a word of prayer. Father God, we thank you for your word and we bless your word. Thank you. Your word will not return void. You are holy. You are the son of God. You're king of kings. You are lord of lords. And you have fulfilled your duty. Your father asked you to do. And it is such a simple matter. Your will is for us to believe. All we need to do is believe. And I believe. I believe that you are the son of God. I believe that you are my redeemer. and I believe that you're going to raise me from the dead when my turn comes. I believe in you and I look forward to meeting you face to face. In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen. Amen. God bless you. I will see you in the next message. Bye-bye. Home Watch the Video Teaching

  • FELLOW HEIRS | House of Faith Ministries (HoFM)

    FELLOW HEIRS Written Teaching Minister Lisa Kane September 20, 2024 Objective The objective of this message is to teach believers their identity and inheritance as fellow heirs with Christ, showing how the mystery revealed to Paul confirms that Gentiles are now partakers of God’s promises through Jesus. The message aims to equip listeners to walk boldly in the authority, power, and love granted to them as co-heirs, living in the dispensation of grace with full access to the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit. Synopsis In this teaching, Lisa Kane explores the profound truth that Gentiles, through the gospel, have become fellow heirs with Christ (Ephesians 3:6). She explains how Jesus, the Word made flesh, fulfilled God’s plan by temporarily setting Israel aside so that the good news could reach the Gentiles. Through Paul’s revelation, believers now understand the mystery hidden for ages: that we are joint heirs with Christ, empowered by grace to share in His promises and authority. Lisa highlights that this inheritance calls us not only to salvation but also to walk in the same power Jesus demonstrated, empowered by the Holy Spirit to do even greater works. She emphasizes the importance of humility, obedience, and being rooted in love, for love is the foundation of all spiritual fruit and gifts. Drawing from John 14:12 and Paul’s testimony, she illustrates how believers are called to live boldly, ministering in unity as the body of Christ, showing God’s love in action. The message closes with a call to abide in Christ through prayer, Scripture, and obedience, allowing His love to transform hearts and His Spirit to manifest through gifts and fruit. As fellow heirs, believers are encouraged to embrace their divine calling, walking in confidence, boldness, and love to bring salvation and transformation to the world. Written and/or Transcribed Teaching from Video Hello and welcome to the House of Faith Ministries. I'm Lisa Kaine and I am recording this teaching on Friday, September 20th, 2024. Welcome. Let's open up in a word of prayer. Father God, we thank you for your word and we pray that your word does not return void. We pray that your word penetrates deep within our soul in our spirit in our mind as knowledge where it manifests the anointing of your holy spirit. Thank you father god. You are precious and holy and in the name of Jesus we pray. Amen. Amen. Welcome. I don't know if you can hear but we've got like a thunderstorm coming over here. So you're going to hear thunder here and it is windy. So and it just came on out of nowhere. So anyways, moving on. This message is called Fellow Heirs. Very excited about this teaching. I hope that you are blessed by it. Let's go to our opening scripture here. Ephesians 3:6. That the Gentiles should be fellows and of the same body and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel. So, the way I teach, in case you're new to this uh platform here, I'd like for you to notice that in the King James version, that's the scriptures I use. And the bolded words are the words in the King James version that the translators chose to translate from Hebrew or Greek into English. Well, that word that I have bolded could also mean other things. So like fellow heirs is co-air co-air joint heir together partakers is co-articipants promise is the announcement or pledge and the gospel is a good message so those are the words that could have been used and anyways um I like to add that extra words because it brings a more deeper meaning to us in our spirit. Amen. It just started pouring. Okay. So what is this? So this message is called fellow heirs. So here I want to go into the purpose of what I'm talking about. Jesus came to us as a man even though he was a spirit in the beginning. If you go back to John 1 1 through3 let's let's read that. It says in the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God. The same was in the beginning with God and all things were made by him and without him was not anything made that was made. And remember the word became flesh, which is what Jesus represented. So because that word became flesh, that's Jesus. He was there in the beginning. He was born a woman, grew up a man, died as the son of God, taking on all the sin of the world. He rose from the grave three days later, ascended to heaven just before the day of Pentecost. You can go read about that in Acts 1 and two. So what the coming of Jesus did, he did two things and and you're going to see us fellow heirs. You're going to see us as a participant in the acts of what Jesus did. You're going to see that what we can do today. So uh the coming of Jesus did two things. It put Israel on hold until the return as a nation which happened in 1948 and Jerusalem became the capital in 1967. And this is on hold or Israel's on hold until the day of the Lord takes place. That has not happened yet. Right now we are in the time of the Gentiles. So the second thing Jesus did is he brought the gospel gospel good news to the Gentiles causing us to become fellow heirs with him for those who believe. So he had to put Israel on the sidelines to accomplish this task. He did this by having them rejected. So remember this was all to the purpose of God. He did this on purpose. So to fulfill the purpose of this teaching, we're going to show you what it is to have those promises and the power that Jesus had to do the things that he did. Because if we're co-airs, if we're fellow heirs, we get to do the same thing he did. You're going to see that here in just a moment. So let's go to Ephesians. We're going to be focusing here in chapter 3. So we saw verse 6 is our opening scripture. So now we're going to read verses 2-7. If ye have heard of the dispensation or administration, stewardship, appointed order or age of the grace of God which is given to me to you word. I want to pause here and I I think it's important to address this. There's a lot of teaching out there that says dispensational teaching is not biblical. Well, I'm we are in the fullness of the Gentiles, the dispensation of grace. And you can see Paul clearly talking about that here. If you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given to me to you word. What Jesus did is he redeemed us of our sins. When he died, his pure blood landed on the mercy seat. He rose from the grave in power. And because he did that, he wiped away the sin of the world. And you get to accept that. You get to be a part of that freedom that Jesus accomplished. And to be fellows, guess what? When Jesus died, he rose from the grave. When you die, you rise from the grave. Your joint hes, fellow hes. Okay, I want you to get this and I want you to understand this. Verse three, how that by revelation and notice what he said by the way in verse two of the grace of God which is given to me given me to you word if you heard of this disposition in other words if you believe you heard it you accepted it remember there's a choice here been emphasizing the choice factor over the last couple of teachings verse three how that by revelation or disclosure or manifestation he made known unto me the mystery which is a secret as I wrote a or in few words whereby when ye read ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ. There's a secret here that Paul is going to tell us. This is very interesting. I want you to get this. This see the let's continue on. Let's read uh verse five. Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men as it see the purpose of Jesus coming. There was prophecy written but the revelation of what he accomplished was not revealed in the past. So Paul is say see when Paul met Jesus on the road to Damascus. Remember Paul was Saul at that time and he was coming after the church big time. He was going because he believed in the Bible the great God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. He did not believe or accept that Jesus was the son of God. So he came after the Christians, but Jesus interveneed on that road to Damascus. And when he intervened, Saul became Paul. And so for the next three years, he went into the wilderness. You see, Paul was the biggest of the Pharisees. He knew the scriptures. But in that three-year time period, he went to see the revelation of what who Jesus is as a son of God through his teachings he grew up with. And so that mystery became revelation to him. He got it. And now he because he's called to teach to the Gentiles, he wants to reveal that message to you and I. And that's what he's saying here. So which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the spirit that and here's our opening scripture that the Gentiles should be fellow airs and of the same body and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel the good message. Verse seven, whereof I was made a minister which is attendant run errands according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power. This is incredible the revelation that Paul is sharing here. So we are in this in between time of putting Israel on hold and before the day of the Lord comes. What we know about this time is that it is the time of the Gentiles. You and I, the the Israelites don't have sacrifices anymore. That's stopped. They didn't have a temple anymore to go into because the power of God wasn't there anymore. The veil's been ripped in two. And it was thick, too. It ripped. But they can walk into the temp. Anybody can walk into the temple now and be a part with God, have a relationship with God, be a partaker of what God and Jesus promised us. So, we're in this in between time, this pause of Israel, the dispensation of grace. And here we are, by the way, as Gentiles teaching and preaching to the world. That's our responsibility. So this mystery that Paul was given was kept from the pro prophets and anyone who lived before Jesus and it became manifested to Paul and he began to write and teach about it and not only to anyone who wanted to read it but to the Gentiles specifically. You see Paul didn't walk with the apostles or the disciples in Jesus day. He came after and yet the Lord used him to get the Gentiles. Cuz see the apostles, the disciples are all Jewish. Paul Jewish. But God said to Jesus said to Paul, "I want you to go teach to the Gentiles." So he did. So, as Paul is explaining, as we continue to read here in Ephesians chapter 3, we need to understand the knowledge, the mystery that was revealed to him, this teaching of the redemption of the blood of Jesus to the Gentiles for the sin. Because in our opening scripture, Paul clearly tells us that we're fellows of this of the same body. We're partakers of this promise that Christ gave to the Israelites and to us. And there's a power that comes with this teaching and it's a gift of the grace of God. So why do we need to know this? Because that's a very good question. Go to John 14:12. Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth or has faith in me, on me, the works or the toil, the labor that I do, Jesus says, shall he, that's you and me, do also, and greater or larger works than these shall he do because I go unto my father. Oh, so see, Jesus isn't here anymore. He ascended into heaven. So, he left us the Holy Spirit. And when you saw the day of Pentecost in Acts chapter 1 and two, you will see the anointing and that power come forth. We have that power, the Gentiles, to minister to those and do greater things than what Jesus did. That's and it almost seems impossible, but let's remember something here. You know, Jesus, a one-man individual, he did a lot while he while he was here. If you remember the end of the last verse of John chapter of the gospel of John which is John 21:2 it tells us that there are also many other things which Jesus did the which they should be written everyone I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen. So let's understand something here. When Jesus rose from the grave he invited everyone to his grace. Remember, anyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13. Now, Israel rejected him as the son of God. So, they got put on pause. They will be dealt with in the seven-year time period of God's wrath. Go read Revelation and Daniel. But as Gentiles in the time of the Gentiles, we are partakers of this power, and we get to do things even greater than him because we're fellows. So, how is this done? Let's go back to Ephesians 3 and let's start in verse eight here. Unto me who am less than least of all saints. See, Paul is recognizing, listen, I didn't walk with Jesus on the earth. I'm the least of them all. And yet, he walked in power. He walked in authority. And he changed the world with his teaching to the Gentiles. Paul did magnificent things. He continued the ministry of what Jesus was doing, which is what we're called to do as fellow hes. Hope you're getting this. Is this grace given that I should preach among the Gentiles, the unsearchable riches of Christ? You see, everything that Christ has done is worthy, valuable. It's more valuable than money. It's more valuable than our lives because he's saving lives with his ministry. Amen. And to make all men see, this is Paul talking. I'm going to make all men see because this is what he's called to do. What is the fellowship? The mystery. The fellowship of the mystery which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God who created all things by Jesus Christ. Remember, God hid this on purpose. He did this with a purpose and a plan. He kept it hidden. He's revealing it. It's It's as if all of the Old Testament, which is true life events, were written for you and I today in today's generation because we I do believe we're in that last generation just before his return or we won't our generation won't end as he returns. Amen. Let's continue on in verse 10. To the intent that now unto the principalities, you've got these rules. That's what principalities are. And powers as privilege in heavenly places might be known by the church. That's you and I. The calling out the manifold wisdom of God according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord. in whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him. Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you which is your glory or honor. So what is he saying here? Let's let's break this down. We have access to these rules and these powers to be bold, to be confident in sharing of the good news. And Paul is encouraging us. He doesn't want us to be bad, weak, fail, weary. This message, we shouldn't get tired of sharing it. It is the most important thing in the world. So when we see tribulations, things that Jesus did, he died on the cross. Every one of the disciples all were martyed except for John. I think he died of natural causes. But either way, they were all martyed. This is a blessing. And I want you to see this is not something we should look at and go. No, what we should do is look at it and say, "Hallelujah." Because see, life and death is in the palm of the hand of God. And the moment we leave our bodies, we come into his presence, absent from the body, present with the Lord. Oh death, oh death, where is your sting? Hallelujah. You see, this is the honor that we have. We get to walk in this confidence, in this boldness, knowing that we are fellow airs with Christ and what his ministry stood for, what his power does. We are the church calling out. We should be walking in this. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Let's go back to Ephesians 3 and we're now in verse 14. For this cause, I bow my knees unto the father of our Lord Jesus Christ. I want you to see something here. Paul is showing us the access, the privilege that we have of getting this power. You see, there's a condition of the heart that makes this possible. And a lot of us aren't ready. I remember years ago, I'm going to share a testimony at our Wednesday night Bible study next week, but a little piece of it. I remember going to tell after hearing the voice of God tell me to go to church. I remember going to confront my husband and in that moment I felt like I had every power and authority that I could do that I could cause lightning to come down. Hey, my husband's still alive so all is well. But how I felt so anticlimatic and defeated when he said, "Okay, I'll go with you." I thought I was going to have to fight him to go to church. Well, the fight came later. But in that moment, I had every power and authority and I knew it. And the reason I teach this now is because I want you to know and understand that as fellow heirs, we have this power. We have this authority to come in and to make a difference and to show people the true power of God. Not witchcraft, not uh voodoo or any of that junk. No, we are looking at the true power and authority of God that we have access to. And he's showing us how to do it. He bowed his knees. So he humbled himself. And then look at what he says. Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named. We come through the descendant or lineage of Adam. Adam failed. But Jesus came through that same line. We come through that same line. We're brothers and sisters with Jesus. I hope you're getting that. In heaven and earth is named. Verse 16. that he would grant give you according to the riches the wealth of his glory to be strengthened. You're you're empowered increased in vigor with might which is that force or miraculous power by his spirit in the inner man. You should be able to feel this on the inside. You should be hearing the anointing of the Holy Spirit. So he started off with the humbling. Remember he humbled himself and now he's got this might. So what happens next? He this verse 17 that Christ may dwell. Oh, wait a second here. Have I been teaching on abiding in the secret place with the Lord? How many messages now? Here's Paul telling us by humbling him, getting that power, you're to dwell in the in your heart with by faith that ye being rooted and grounded in love. Here's love. I just taught on this last week. We need to have love. Without love, it's clanging symbols. It's nothing. And there's people who called out demons in the name of Jesus and did all this because demons know the name of Jesus is powerful. But when that person goes to face judgment with God and that person says, "Well, I cast out all those demons in your name. I did all this in your name." And Jesus says, "I don't know who you are." See the love is absolutely imperative that we have in our hearts. So let's read that again. Verse 17. That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith that ye you being rooted and grounded in love may be able to comprehend. Look at this word comprehend is to take eagerly seize possess with all things. Meaning we got to do this in unity. We do this as a body of Christ. We do this as the church. And look what he says. What is the breadth and length and depth and height? We're gonna continue on in a minute. That just means every part of Jesus. Every part. How high he is, how low he'll go, how far to the left or right he will go to get us. That is what he's telling us here. We can understand that completely by humbling ourselves, getting our love back in our heart, which is understanding the love of God. Jesus did the ultimate love sacrifice. He went to the cross and died for us. That's love. I don't care what anyone else says. It could be, "Oh, I got this feeling and emotion." No, no, no. It's the benevolence. It's the the obligation. Jesus had an obligation and he went and did his duty. That's the kind of love we're talking about. It It's a self-control emotional aspect, but it's a knowing in the mind. I got to go do this because I need so and so to be saved. I got to go tell him. I got to stay strong in the Lord. I got to get in my secret place because I need that love in me to keep moving me forward so that I have it purposed in my heart. I want so and so saved. I gotta get my brother, my sister, my love, my cousins, my parents, my children. This is what you're fighting for. This is what you're living for. Amen. And this is it. And look at this verse 19. And to know the love of Christ. There it is. The affection and benevolence which passes knowledge. It goes past beyond the knowledge of it that ye may be filled with fullness of God. Because that's how you're going to understand that. That's how you're going to know this. You see, by humbling ourselves and and understanding what Christ did on the cross. That's where love starts. Hey, he died for me. There's you don't even have to have an emotional experience to that. It's a start. It's a knowledge. And what happens is because you have that knowledge, you say, "Okay, well, I want to go find out more about who Jesus is." and you begin to spend time with him. What happens? You're abiding in him. That knowledge the the effective it begins goes beyond knowledge. It's now an emotional integral part of your being that when people see you, they get to know you. They know you by your fruits because you're walking in love. You are walking in that holiness with him. And they see that And it is strengthening your inner man because you're letting the word of God, remember that's Jesus Christ in the flesh, was the word and the word became flesh. That word you're allowing it to manifest, boil right out of you and it is splattering on everyone around you because love is what binds us all together. This is what brings us into that unity. Amen. You can go read 1 Corinthians chapters 12,13 and 14. You will see how love works especially in the gifts of the power of the Holy Spirit. And these are gifts that Christ gives us so that we can bring those we love to his holiness. So we but we have to understand comprehend the rules the powers that God has established for us as the church to use. We have to know how to use them. We don't want to be ignorant of that. This is why when he talks about the height, the width, the depth, the length, he's showing us a complete full understanding of how God sets things up, how he operates in that power through love and obedience. Because Paul was not only did he bow his knees, humble himself, get the love, and dwell in Christ, he was obedient to do that actionable item. That's what he did. Oh, that's incredible. Let's go read the last two verses in chapter 3, Ephesians. Now unto him that is able. Not everyone can do this, but he's talking to you and me. Watch this. Now unto him that is able possible to do exceeding abundantly over above all that we ask or think according to the power the miraculous power that workketh in us. Unto him be glory unto God be glor or actually unto us be the glory honor in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages world without end. Amen. Catch that he's talking about us. He's saying you know if you're able see possible it starts with knowledge you see something happen you see a miracle and you're just like okay I remember I've seen these things I mean my my young adulthood of life I grew up in the church but at that point in my life what God did to transform me was incredible. So, I got the knowledge of it then. But what the Lord has been working on me throughout my life since is building up his love in my heart because I'm coming to realize how much he loves others as much as he loves me. I shared this before. I'll share it again. I did not want to pray for Hamas who attacked Israel. I felt Israel should kick their behinds out of here. But I also felt very conflicted about that. The Holy Spirit was telling me, "You need to pray for them. I love them just as much as you." And when I was obedient to that and I prayed for them and I not only prayed, I prayed that I I forgave them. I had to forgive them. That's the act of obedience here. I forgave them. And then I asked God to forgive them. Remember Jesus says, "Whatever you forgive, I will forgive." So he becomes obligated to forgive and he forgave them. And then I asked for the Holy Spirit to move in their hearts and minds. And God sent them a vision of the same man in their dreams. Over 200 Hamas men had that dream. They went to the missionary which was nearby and they said, "What does this mean?" And the missionary was able to minister to them and they were harvested. They became believers in Christ. And I am very confident that my prayer is what pushed that over the edge. So I continue to pray today in obedience because he loves them just as much as he loves me. So all those people we see in the world that we don't like, he loves them just as much as he loves me. So who is able? Are you able? Are you able to believe? Are you able to dwell in the secret place with him? Are you able to go find out? Because you are fellow heirs. You are. When Jesus was ascending from heaven, he made a pit stop. He stopped at the garden of Gethsemane or excuse me at at where the stone was rolled away where he was buried. His body was buried and Mary Magdalene was there and he stops. So he's got like billions of souls behind him and he stops and he says to her, "My father, I go to my father, your father." uh my God, your God. That is him fulfilling the fact that we are fellow airs, joint hes that before we were made a little lower than the angels, we're now equal with Jesus. And I hope you understand that. And if Jesus can walk in the power and the authority to raise people from the dead, to heal people from the sick that and to let them see and no longer be blind. Guess what? we have the access and privilege to do because we are fellow heirs. We can do that. That is our calling and we should be doing that. And what do you do? Humble yourself before the Lord. Get on your knees. Dwell in the place. Read his scriptures. Ask him. Start talking with him. Let his word come back to you as you read it because that's his communication to you. And then you ask him and he will reveal to you as he did Paul. Paul is a fellow air as well. And we're fellow airs right there with Paul. Jesus. If he can reveal a mystery to Paul, he can reveal it to us. And he can answer every single one of your questions that you have because that's who we believe in and that's who we partner with. That's who we are co-artakers with. He has all the knowledge. He's the creator. Well, that means we get to know everything. Now we don't know everything but when we come together in unity and remember that love that he has for everyone that love that we begin to show and we abide in and we let that love manifest in us then Jesus can move through us and that allows the Holy Spirit to push through and let the gifts move through us. Let us become fruitful. It it shows us the fruit. We we begin to manifest the love, joy, peace, gentleness, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, temperance. That is the fruit. And then the gifts on above and beyond that where we get to talk to someone and and share something with them that they never told you. That's the Holy Spirit revealing something to you to get their attention. How did you know about that? That is the Holy Spirit manifesting. Amen. Let's close in a word of prayer. Father God, we thank you for your word and we bless your word. You are amazing and glorious and faithful and I thank you for your word. Lord, I pray that we hear your word that we take the action of it by humbling ourselves, getting to know the knowledge of what you have done on the cross and the rising of your from the grave, the rising of you from the grave. And we just pray that that penetrates our heart and that we actually abide in your word. We pray and ask that the gifts and the fruits of the Holy Spirit uh the fruits manifest in us and stay within us and we get to show that for the rest of our lives and that the gifts manifest so that we can minister to your body in the name of Jesus and to the souls that are lost out there right now Lord. Thank you father God in the name of Jesus we pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. God bless you. I will see you in the next message. Bye-bye. Home Watch the Video Teaching
