In the movie “Unbroken,” when Louis Zamperini is at a low point, ready to give up running, his brother Pete turns to him and says, ““If you can take it, you can make it. You train, you fight, way harder than those other guys. And you win. You get out from under them. Or… you keep going the way you’re going and you end up as a bum in the streets.” God wants to bless you and give you new levels of victory and freedom, but you’re not gonna get there if you don’t get up and fight for it. In 2023, set your heart to grab ahold of all God has for you and not let go.

Follow along in this series as Jake shares some of the things that impacted him the most about his recent trip to Israel.
Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.” (Matthew 16:24) One of the most challenging and humbling aspects of Christianity is this demand to, on the one hand, be ready to face persecution with a smile and, on the other hand, to obey Jesus in all things. The early church understood this profoundly. What about us?

Jesus promised, “Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, „Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” (John 7:38) So why do we so often feel dry, discouraged, defeated, and disoriented? We too often depend on our own wisdom or strength, which leaves us coming up short. We need to get out of the way and let the Holy Spirit come and fill us.

If you’re tired of seeing your prayers get answered, if you’re sick of having an exciting and fulfilling prayer life, if you’d like your prayers to be more a dead, dry ritual than a dynamic walk of faith… Listen to this sermon! 😉 Seriously, though the “secrets” are tongue-in-cheek, the advice will (hopefully) inspire you to seek God with a whole heart and not be content with a frustrating, ineffective prayer life.

JAKE STIMSON | PRAYER | INTERCESSION | POWER | JOSHUA | VICTORY | SPIRITUAL WARFARE
When Joshua was pursuing a ruthless enemy in battle, he prayed a ridiculous, brazen prayer – “God, freeze the sun and moon where they are so we can keep this battle going!” And the crazy thing is, God responded. The sun and moon stood still. What gave Joshua the boldness to pray such a ridiculous prayer? 1) God had already promised him complete victory, and in Joshua’s mind, this is what it would take to see God’s promise fulfilled. 2) Joshua spent a lot of time in the presence of God, so He know God’s heart.
