You have to be in the house to experience it!
Living Faith Inside of Us!
Living faith is the equivalent of our living Saviour, Jesus Christ. He ever lives, and He lives inside of us, the believers. With “living faith” living inside of us, we can experience deliverance, empowerment, and anything that might otherwise be seen as the “impossible.”
Weekly Thought: Instruments of Kingdom Service
We will be in prayer, fasting & consecration from Monday, November 12th through Friday, November 16th declaring our members as “Instruments of Kingdom Service.” As children of God we present our bodies as living sacrifices (instruments), holy and acceptable unto God, which is our reasonable service (Romans 12:1). An instrument is merely a means by which something is done, such as a specific or a precision work. God gets His work done when we yield ourselves to Him as “instruments” for His service.
Weekly Thought: Key to Change
The “key to change” is having eyes to “see” the goodness of God. The enemy finds a way to affect our view through spiritual forces that hinder our “spiritual sight.” Pray for a clean heart and for the eyes of our understanding to be enlightened to get insight to see the way God sees. A clean heart is necessary for a clear view. A clear view is necessary for change.

Bloom Where You’re Planted
Recently I’ve developed a desire to learn how to care for house plants. I’ve never had a green thumb, so I didn’t want to start out being too ambitious with a plant that required extensive maintenance. I just wanted something I could easily take care of, watch grow, and enjoy. Having done my research before going plant shopping, I found out that peace lilies were a good option because of their ability to clean the air of toxins and their minimal maintenance requirement. Sounded like a winner.
Expansion
Expansion is a good thing. It’s spreading out, getting bigger, but more than that—it’s a sign. A sign that says you’ve overtaken, conquered or even dominated your current location to such a degree that there’s nowhere to go but out. It’s the goal of gas station, grocery store and it’s God’s plan for His church. Before returning to His place in Heaven, the Lord Jesus left this command with the remaining disciples:
