Romans 3:23 (NASB1995) says,
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”

This verse describes a past condition, not a permanent identity.

Scripture never said you are forever a sinner. It says you sinned.

When repentance and forgiveness happens, your identity changes.

Romans 5:1 (NASB1995):
“Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Justified doesn’t mean sinners trying harder.
It means that we are declared righteous.

2 Corinthians 5:17 (NASB1995):
“Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.”

Calling a forgiven, regenerated believer a sinner undermines the finished work of the cross and contradicts scriptures. It keeps people sin conscious instead of Christ conscious.

Yes, believers can still sin.
But sin is no longer who we are.

Romans 6:18 (NASB1995):
“And having been freed from sin, you became slaves of righteousness.”

The Bible doesn’t call believers saved sinners.

It calls us
Saints (Romans 1:7)
The righteousness of God in Christ
(2 Corinthians 5:21)
Holy and blameless (Ephesians 1:4)

Repentance changes your position and your identity.

So don’t say I am a sinner saved by grace. Instead, I WAS (past tense) a sinner that has been saved by grace and made the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

Agree with scripture, don’t contradict it.

Jesus, the Son of God, became a man to allow men to become Sons of God

A religious spirit is not passionate about intimacy with God. It is passionate about control. It would rather have a platform instead of prayer. Recognition and self justification instead of repentance. A religious spirit holds ought against it’s brethren. Where the Holy Spirit convicts, a religious spirit condemns. Where the Gospel frees, religion binds. When given the choice, it will protect its clique instead of shepherding souls. It would rather groom your children and new believers than encourage a kingdom mindset. It hides its self behind fancy songs and demonic tongues. A religious spirit is exposed by its fruit. It values money more than mercy. It speaks the language of faith but denies its power (2 Timothy 3:5).

“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cu**in, and have neglected the weightier provisions of the law: justice and mercy and faithfulness.”
— Matthew 23:23 (NASB1995)

Jesus didn’t come to call out sinners.
He called out the religious.

“It is not those who are healthy who need a physician, but those who are sick; I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
—Luke 5:31–32 (NASB1995)

Trying to change someone’s God-given personality is saying, “God, You made a mistake.”

And He didn’t.

God designed every person intentional with specific wiring, tendencies, and perspectives that makes-up their personality.
We are called to grow in character. Don’t try to erase the personality He handcrafted.

Give people the grace to be who God made them. And give yourself that same grace.
You are not a malfunction. You are God’s masterpiece.
(Psalm 139:14 • Ephesians 2:10)

We are living in a time when the Church is asleep while the world is burning to the ground. We cry out for revival but won’t even pray. We beg God for miracles but refuse to move. We want the blessing without the burden of obedience.

The early Church didn’t grow on comfort, but by conviction. The Bible states they fasted, they prayed, they gave, they served, they sacrificed. They didn’t have microphones or social media, but they had fire. And now, too many have become lazy bums, lukewarm and lifeless. They’ve traded passion for convenience.

We wanna shout, “God, send revival!” but Heaven shouts back, “Get up and go!” Souls are goin to hell while the Church is too busy sleeping. The harvest is still plentiful, but the laborers are fewer than ever because too many have stopped caring.

Romans 13:11 (NASB1995) says, “It is already the hour for you to awaken from sleep; for now salvation is nearer to us than when we believed.”

It’s time to wake up, Church! Shake off the spiritual laziness. Get back to prayer. Get back to fasting. Get back to serving. Get back to loving. Get back to JESUS. The Kingdom don’t need spectators sitting in padded pews, it needs soldiers.

Too many believers act like state workers leaning on shovels while one or two people do all the work. They stand around watching and talking about what “needs to be done,” while the few who actually labor are worn out from carrying the load. Everyone wants to be part of the move of God, but nobody wants to move!

Jesus said He came not to be served, but to serve. Yet when it’s time to serve, too many disappear. You’ll show up when it benefits you. You’ll sing when you have the mic. You’ll post when we can be seen and draw attention. But when it’s time to pick up a towel and wash feet, suddenly you’re too busy. The King of Glory knelt down to serve, yet you act like serving is beneath you. When we refuse to serve, we’re putting ourselves above Jesus Himself.

When we serve, we carry the heart of Christ. If the Son of God could humble Himself to lift others, what’s our excuse? The Church has been leaning on shovels for too long and it’s time to start digging again. It’s time to stop talking about revival and start living it.

Wake up, Church. The world doesn’t need another performance. It needs the power of a people who will actually live out what they preach. Stop leaning and start laboring. Jesus is coming soon and He’s not coming back for a sleeping bride.

The Lord honors faith filled prayers even when our timing isn’t perfect, or when we pray without fully understanding the bigger picture, God still sees the faith and love behind the prayer. Scripture shows us that He looks at the heart (1 Samuel 16:7). Sometimes we may ask for things before their appointed time, but because God is merciful, He takes even our imperfect prayers and works them into His perfect plan (Romans 8:26–28).

Think of Hezekiah in Isaiah 38, when God told him to set his house in order because he was going to die, Hezekiah turned his face toward the wall and prayed. That prayer wasn’t “timed” according to what God had already declared, but because of Hezekiah’s heart, his tears, and his faith in God, the Lord added fifteen more years to his life.

Faith moves God’s heart, even when our timing doesn’t match His. Love makes our prayers fragrant before Him (Revelation 5:8). And sometimes, God answers in mercy because His love for us is greater than our limitations.

People want to say that speaking in tongues isn’t for today or it’s of the devil. There is not a single verse in Scripture that says the gifts of the Spirit have ceased, or that speaking in tongues is of the devil. In fact, the Bible shows the opposite.

Jesus promised that “these signs will accompany those who have believed… they will speak with new tongues” (Mark 16:17, NASB1995).

Paul instructed the church not to forbid speaking in tongues. “Therefore, my brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak in tongues” (1 Corinthians 14:39).

Peter declared on the Day of Pentecost that the promise of the Spirit was for ALL generations. “For the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself” (Acts 2:39).

So biblically, the gifts ARE for today, for the Church, and for every believer who desires to walk in the fullness of the Spirit.

Hebrews 11:1 reminds us that faith is not based on what we’ve already seen or experienced, but on trusting God’s Word even when we don’t yet see the evidence. To dismiss spiritual gifts simply because one hasn’t personally experienced them is to walk by sight, not by faith.

It’s a bit like salvation itself, just because someone hasn’t personally experienced being born again doesn’t mean salvation isn’t real. The reality of God’s promises isn’t determined by human experience; it’s determined by His Word.

Tradition is sending people to hell. “Well, this is how we always done it.” And that’s why you always get what you’ve always got. Many times, people cling to tradition over truth.

Jesus Himself warned about this:

“But in vain do they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.”
Matthew 15:9 (NASB1995)

Tradition can become a chain if it replaces the living Word of God. The Pharisees were experts at “this is how we’ve always done it” but their rituals lacked heart, faith, and obedience. The danger is when tradition numbs people to the Spirit, making them comfortable instead of transformed.

That’s why Paul wrote

“See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world, rather than according to Christ.”
Colossians 2:8

When people elevate tradition over Scripture, they risk being like the church in Revelation that had a name that they were alive, but were dead. Weak-minded Christians keep recycling the same powerless results because they refuse to let God’s Spirit move them into deeper obedience and faith.

Truth is, tradition without transformation leads to a spiritual death. Faith in Christ, alive and active, breaks those chains

“Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.”
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭2‬:‭10‬ ‭KJV

Revelation 2:10 is one of those verses that sees through all excuses and halfway commitments. Jesus isn’t calling for part-time faithfulness or surface level devotion. He’s calling for endurance and loyalty. A steadfastness unto death.

It means faithfulness when it hurts and when it’s inconvenient, when no one else sees, and even when it brings suffering or persecution. This is covenant loyalty!

Not one day a week, because true faith is not a Sunday-only identity; it’s who you are every day.

Not when you feel like it, because feelings waver, but faith is rooted in trust, not emotions.

Not only when people are watching, because God sees in secret, and the crown of life is promised to those who endure for His sake.

It’s the same spirit Paul spoke of when he said, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith” (2 Timothy 4:7)

The promise is written. “I will give you the crown of life.” That’s an eternal reward, eternal victory, eternal joy all for a temporary endurance.

My faith can bring you healing, but only your faith can keep you walking in it.

We see tension in Scripture between someone receiving something by grace (or through another person’s faith) and then keeping it through their own faith and obedience.

In the Gospels, there are times where Jesus’ faith and authority clearly heal people regardless of their level of belief (raising Jairus’ daughter, healing the servant of the centurion, and so on.) Yet there are also many times where Jesus explicitly says, “Your faith has made you well” (Mark 5:34, Luke 8:48, Luke 17:19). The miracle happens through Him, but the continuance of that miracle, the walking it out, standing firm, resisting doubt is often tied to your faith.

It’s like this. Sometimes a person can receive a breakthrough, healing, or deliverance because someone else interceded, prayed, or stood in faith for them.
But to keep it, to walk in it, not let the enemy steal it, not let doubt choke it out, that requires your own faith to be activated and sustained.

This is what Jesus implies in John 5:14 after healing the man at the pool of Bethesda.

“See, you have been made well. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you.”

He healed him freely but warned him to live differently afterward, essentially saying, “Guard what has been given.”

09/25/2025

The Bible is inspiring and full of truth, but not every passage is suitable for every age group at every stage of life. God’s Word covers the full reality of human sin, brokenness, and redemption and some parts deal with subjects like violence, immorality, and adult struggles that younger hearts and minds simply aren’t ready to process.

That’s why Scripture itself emphasizes the importance of wisdom in teaching.

Ecclesiastes 3:1 says, “There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every matter under heaven.”

1 Corinthians 3:2 reminds us that Paul gave the believers “milk, not solid food,” because they weren’t ready for deeper teaching yet.

In the same way, children can be guided into the truths of Scripture gradually, starting with God’s love, creation, Jesus’ kindness, forgiveness, and the hope of salvation before being introduced to more mature themes as they grow.

It’s not about hiding truth but about giving it in the right measure, at the right time, in the right way.

“But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.”
‭‭James‬ ‭1‬:‭22‬-‭24‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Smith Wigglesworth gave us four principles we need to maintain: “First, read the Word of God. Second, consume the Word of God until it consumes you. Third believe the Word of God. Fourth, act on the Word.”

1. Read the Word of God – This is the foundation. Just as we need daily bread for our bodies, we need daily Scripture for our souls (Matthew 4:4). Reading consistently keeps us anchored.

2. Consume the Word of God until it consumes you – Don’t just skim like a comic book, meditate. Let it sink in until it shapes your thoughts, desires, and responses (Psalm 1:2; Jeremiah 15:16).

3. Believe the Word of God – Reading without faith leaves it as mere ink on a page. When we believe, the Word becomes living and active in us (Hebrews 4:2, 12).

4. Act on the Word – Obedience completes the process. James 1:22 warns us not to be hearers only. Faith becomes visible when we walk out what we’ve read, consumed, and believed.
