#S4-039: How to Use the Name of Jesus to Live A Miracle Life [Podcast]

by

You Can Use the Name of Jesus to Live A Miracle Life

Did you know that until the year 1100, most people in Europe had only one name? With the population increasing it became difficult to distinguish among people, so surnames (last names) were added. These names came primarily from four different sources: A man’s occupation such as John Cook or John Miller; location such as John Overhill or John Brook; a man’s relationship with his father like John’s son would be Johnson; and lastly personal characteristics like John Small, John Short, John Longfellow, or Peter Widehips. How did Jesus acquire His Name? In these week’s podcast, we are going to look at how Jesus acquired His Name as a man and how you, as a man, can use this divine weapon in your everyday life.

#S4-038: Why Rebuking Darkness Directly is Greater Faith in God [Podcast]

by

Rebuking Darkness Directly is Greater Faith in God

Some people think that there is no Satan. That he is just some red-suited Halloween costumed figure who only comes out in October. The Word of God teaches otherwise. Perhaps the following story will be instructive to them. Once there was a boxer who was being badly beaten. Battered and bruised, he leaned over the ropes and said to his trainer, “Throw in the towel! This guy is killing me!” The trainer said, “Oh, no, he’s not. He’s not even hitting you. He hasn’t laid a glove on you!”At that point, the boxer wiped the blood away from his eye and said, “Well, then, I wish you’d watch that referee. Somebody is sure hitting me!” 1 There is an enemy loose on planet earth who’s trying his best to lay his gloves on you. Rebuking darkness is the path to overcoming satanic hinderances and you can do it in Jesus Name.

#S4-037: Why God Ordained Authority and High Places Matter [Podcast]

by

Understanding High Places Helps You Understand Authority

Believers are at different levels in their spirit walk with God. Spiritual growth is a lot like physical growth. We are all in the process of becoming and growing. On many Bible subjects, believers differ on how they should live and act according to those scriptures.  There are believers who don’t believe you need to rebuke the devil. They think all I need to do is pray unto God about what the devils is doing  and that takes care of it. Is this true? Is this what the scriptures teach? In today’s podcast, we are going to look at the concept of ‘high places’ and endeavor to show you from the Word of God that you can and should rebuke demons in Jesus Name.

#S4-035: How Jesus Destroyed Demons One on One [Encore Podcast]

by

Jesus Destroyed Demons with the Power of His Words

A form of exorcism is a daily occurrence at a Miami hospital treating several hundred patients a month who ask to have evil spirits driven from their bodies. “Usually, we treat 600 to 700 a month,” says Dr. Hardat Sukhdeo, director of Jackson Memorial Hospital’s Crisis Intervention Center. “But last month we had 900 people come for help … we worked our tails off—maybe there was a strong pull from the moon or something.” The belief that demons can infiltrate a person’s body is old hat to the Jamaicans, Haitians, Bahamians, Cubans and Puerto Ricans who live in the Miami area, he said. The patients are given strong tranquilizers to calm them; then staff members try to soothe away their fears. 1. Tranquilizers and TLC are not how you deal with demons. It’s the Name of Jesus that get’s it done. What can we learn about the power of the Name by looking at how Jesus dealt with demons?

#S4-034: Why You Can Absolutely Expect Powerful Healing Moves of God [Podcast]

by

You Can Expect Powerful Healing Moves of God

God is in the moving business. In the very first pages of Genesis where the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters, you can see evidence that God is the God of the plan. He has one. He’s always had one. Not only does He have one but, He’s always working to bring His plan to fruition. Throughout the course of human history, God has been seen moving and stirring the hearts of His people. At times when His people have shut down and allowed themselves to be distracted from His first priority of establishing the Kingdom, in the midst of the distraction, God is still moving to work the plan. So don’t be afraid of the complacency you may see around you. It won’t stay that way for long. God is on the Throne and on the move. Do you think that everything that God has already executed in bringing Jesus into planet earth will fall flat because of few cold saints? The stirring, the reviving, the outpouring of God’s Presence, is on the horizon. Not only will God stir His people to a greater awareness of His purpose, but often times these moves are accompanied by spectacular signs, wonders, and dramatic miracles. Healing is a physical sign pointing to our Eternal on the move God. In today’s podcast, we are going to take a look at the healing connection to some of these revival type moves.

Why It’s Important to Flow in Faith’s Domain

Podcast: Light on Life Season Four Episode Thirty-Three

by

Faith, Believe and Receive are All Part of Faith's Domain

Believe and receive are part of faith’s language. They are part of faith’s domain. It’s important to understand the domain of faith. People believe in miracles and that’s a good thing.  That’s what a recent poll by Newsweek revealed. Here are the percentages:

• Americans who believe in divine miracles: 84 percent
• the ones who believe in the reality of miracles described in the Bible: 79 percent
• those who have personal experiences with miracles: 48 percent
• the ones who know of people who have experienced miracles: 63 percent
• those who have prayed for a miracle: 67 percent
• the ones who believe God or the saints heal sick people who have been given no chance of survival by medical doctors: 77 percent1 Believing in miracles is good. Knowing how to receive them is even better.

This is Part Two of a Series entitled ‘Healing and Miracles.’ You can find part one of this series, ‘How to Minister Healing Like Jesus Did‘ here.

#S4-031: How You Can Know that Jesus Will Do Miracles for You [Podcast]

by

Jesus Will Do Miracles for You

The scriptures speak to us loudly about miracles. The evidence of them splashes across four-thousand years of recorded Biblical history. From Genesis to Revelation, miracles jump out from the pages filling the heart with hope and expectation. Miracles should be the norm for those who have a lifestyle in God. They are the expected thing. Yet, there are some who say we shouldn’t get our hopes up. That God’s mighty power has vanished like smoke in the wind. The question though is this, where is the evidence of that claim? Where is the evidence of a God who no longer heals or who no longer divides the seas? Recorded history tells a different tale. Not Bible history mind you, secular human history itself testifies that miracles are very much alive. And that’s good news for you because that means you can have a real live miracle by the hand of Almighty God. God loves you. God cares for you and He wants you well. And, He doesn’t play favorites. If He ever healed anybody, He will certainly heal you.

#S4-030: How to Locate Your God Ordained Place [Encore Podcast]

by

You Can Know God's Place For Your Life

Josh McDowell told this great story. An executive hirer, a “headhunter” who goes out and hires corporation executives for other firms, once told me, “When I get an executive that I’m trying to hire for someone else, I like to disarm him. I offer him a drink, take my coat off, then my vest, undo my tie, throw up my feet and talk about baseball, football, family, whatever until he’s all relaxed. Then, when I think I’ve got him relaxed, I lean over, look him square in the eye and say, “What’s your purpose in life?” It’s amazing how top executives fall apart at that question. “Well, I was interviewing this fellow the other day, had him all disarmed, with my feet up on his desk, talking about football. Then I leaned up and said, ‘What’s your purpose in life, Bob?’ And he said, without blinking an eye, ‘To go to heaven and take as many people with me as I can.’ For the first time in my career, I was speechless.” What about you? Do you know what your place is in God? Do you know how to find it?

God Can Communicate with You by Dreams and Visions

While on vacation, Bethany was speeding down a California freeway with three teenage friends. One of them, Jody, said she had dreamed the night before that they were in a serious wreck and that she, the only one with a fastened seatbelt on, had survived. Hearing that, everyone fastened their seat belts. Later, their car swerved into the grass median and rolled. The investigating officer looked at the car and said, “If you hadn’t had your seat belts on, the outcome would have been a lot different.” Where did Jody’s dream come from? 1. In this week’s podcast, we will take a look at some of the other ways God communicates through His use of dreams and visions.

This is Part Three of the Series Secrets to Hearing God. You can find Part One by clicking “Are You Listening? and Part Two by clicking “Are You Waiting?” Part Three ‘Are You Sensitive‘, and Part Four ‘What’s the Number One Way God Leads You?‘
