navigate

• 2 Corinthians 13:5,NLT- “Examine yourselves to see if your faith is genuine. Test yourselves. Surely you know that Jesus Christ is among you; if not, you have failed the test of genuine faith.”

• Are we willing to evaluate ourselves honestly, to test our faith? We’ve all gotta ask ourselves, how teachable are we, really?

• Make no mistake, a faith life is a completely different life.

• The NT tells us, we are to walk by faith, not by sight. You see, living by faith, not senses, not emotions, not intelligence or experiences, will require genuine faith.

• This is why God tells us that we're to examine ourselves, to test our faith walk. 

• Unfortunately there's a lot of Christians that won't even acknowledge they need help with their faith. Even though with our new creation lives it’s really the only way we navigate the Kingdom we’ve been born into.

• MSG, The fundamental fact of our existence is that this TRUST in God, this FAITH, is the firm foundation under everything that makes life worth living. It’s our handle on what we can’t see. 

• Faith actually starts as a conviction in the human soul, established by the unveiling of the truth in God’s word with, to the degree that you have this fixed expectation from what God has told you, you have this divinely inspired trust.

• 2 Corinthians 5:7,AMP- We walk by faith, not by sight, living our lives in a manner consistent with our CONFIDENT BELIEF IN GOD’S PROMISES.

• Living this way starts with our thinking. There’s no way our believing can be right until our thinking is right. Then James takes things a step further by driving the point home that our tongue is the rudder of our lives. RIGHT THINKING = RIGHT BELIEVING = RIGHT TALKING 

• When Jesus told the disciples to have faith in God, He instructed them to speak faith to their situations, to their mountains. 
• But he started the lesson with this statement, “If you’ll not doubt in your heart but believe what you say” In other words, we’ve got to line our words up with our faith.

• Jesus is very clear in the fact that speaking faith from our hearts, effects change in our world, from His.

• This is why, according to Jesus Himself, speaking divinely inspired words over our situation is exactly the kind of corresponding action James is talking about.

• Why do you think Jesus told us to put the Kingdom of God first? Because just like our natural lives here demand focus, intentionality, development, make no mistake, so does our new lives.

• We’ve gotta get this, living this kind of life requires focus, and a key to living a more focused life is avoiding distractions.

• And when we talk the problem more than the promise, we're distracted.

• Because God has designed us to live by faith, we’ve got to get to the place where we allow what He says to shape and strengthen what we actually believe. How we actually live.

• Just like with the father of our faith Abraham. Remember last week I brought up the fact that God changed Abram's name to Abraham, changing what he was saying about himself. And this is exactly what we’ve got to do with what God says about us today. What’s God calling you?

• Romans 4, Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all. 
• This is what the Scriptures mean when God told him, “I have made you the father of many nations.” This happened because Abraham believed in the God who brings the dead back to life and who creates new things out of nothing. The God who calls things which do not exist as though they did.

• I love Mary’s statement when the angel spoke her, “According to your word, let be unto me.”

• Seriously, everyone of us operate within the boundaries of our current beliefs. You see, I believe Jesus is looking for some faith people today like Mary. According to your word Lord.

• Lets turn it around for a second, how many times did Jesus tell people, “according to you faith, let it be so?”

• The more I look at the life of faith, at believing, and I know I talk this all the time but our thinking is key. Faith truly is a mind set. Maybe we should say it like this, faith is an attitude.

• Think about it, our attitude pretty much determines our approach to our life.

• Consider this, which one describes you, you see the difficulty in every opportunity, or the opportunity in every difficulty?

• Ephesians 4:23-24,NIV- “Be made new in the ATTITUDE of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.”

• Take president Lincoln for example, very few people had a clue who he was until the weight of the civil war revealed his way of thinking, his mind set, his attitude.

• Truth is, most of us, like our father of faith Abraham, are just one attitude adjustment away from stepping into the name change God has for us. Discovering that next level of success. Overcoming that challenge. Being the change in that situation.

• And this is why it's absolutely vital we continue growing in our faith because at the end of the day, everyone of us live within our own self-imposed boundaries of what choose to believe or not.

• This is why there’s a lot of wonderful Christians that find themselves in unbelief concerning something Jesus says simply because it makes no sense.

• Jesus faced the same unbelief with His disciples. Repeatedly He asked them, "How is it that you have no faith?" Faith isn't intelligence or emotion, it's 100% spiritual.

• And this is why the created was never intended to prove God. This is why Jesus told us to go and tell, not go and prove. The proving is God's responsibility.

• Romans 1:17,NLT- This Good News tells us how God makes us right in His sight. This is accomplished from start to finish by FAITH. As the Scriptures say, “It is THROUGH FAITH that a righteous person has life.”

• “Through Faith,” Through a divine conviction in the soul, established on the truth in God’s word, to the degree that you have this fixed expectation from what God has told you. 

• Something God is continually reminding of, especially when I'm examining my faith walk, is my love walk. After all, He's the One who told us that our faith only works through love.

• Galatians 5:6,NIV- For in Christ Jesus, The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.

• Let’s go back to Paul's instructions in Corinthians;

• 2 Corinthians 13:5,MSG- Test yourselves to make sure you are solid in the faith. Don’t drift along taking everything for granted. Give yourselves regular checkups. You need firsthand evidence, not mere hearsay, that Jesus Christ is in you. Test it out. 

• Bottom line, if we're going to test our faith walk, it starts by testing our love walk.

• Self evaluation isn't something we're always open to. Think about it, human nature leans toward blaming something or someone. (Adam and Eve)

• Truth is, if we're not willing to self evaluate, the odds are pretty high that there's no way we'll be open to it from another person.

• Romans 15:5-6,NIV- “May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had, so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

• And this is why He told us to walk by faith not by sight, because we would never be successful walking in love, only walking by sight.

• Here's another reason the right attitude is so important, without it we could look right past the person God's wanting us to influence.

• Or connect us with the one He's been leading our direction to influence us.

• Remember, faith is always expecting Jesus to be right in the middle of what our situation might be. 

• 2 Corinthians 5:7,AMP- We walk by faith, not by sight, living our lives in a manner consistent with our CONFIDENT BELIEF IN GOD’S PROMISES.

• Because God has designed us to live by faith, we’ve got to get to the place where we allow what He says to shape and strengthen what we actually believe. How we actually live.

• Over the years, something I've recognized is that many wonderfully born again Christians are simply not comfortable praying. Especially publicly.

• And until we take some steps of faith and try, not only prayer, but anything pertaining to the world of the Spirit is something we'll always be uncomfortable with.

• In its simplest form, prayer is fellowship with the Almighty, our Father. But at a closer look, it’s how a human, born of the spirit, navigates that world.

• So, wherever you're at currently in your faith journey, wouldn't you agree we should all stay open to what God has for us?

• And because God designed us to believe, faith has to be at the center of everything we do, especially in the area of prayer. Hebrews make it clear, it’s really the only way we can even come to God. According to Jesus, Moses, and Paul, it’s how we’re built to live our new lives in Him.

• I’m talking about functioning in a world beyond our natural one. The just shall live by faith.

• 1 John 5:14-15,NKJV-  “Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.”

• John 15:7,MSG- If you make yourselves at home with Me and My words are at home in you, you can be sure that whatever you ask will be listened to and acted upon.

• And a big part of our prayer life is learning how to navigate the world of the spirit. A world you and I have been born into. This is why Paul tells us in Romans that those who live according to the spirit set their mind on things of the spirit.

• Hebrews 3:12,MSG- Watch your step, friends. Make sure there’s no evil unbelief lying around that will trip you up and throw you off course, diverting you from the living God.

• Remember these words from Jesus, “All things are possible to him that believes.”

• I know I probably come back to this point in almost every sermon, but if faith isn't a functioning part of our Christianity, chances are, our Christianity is pretty shallow.

• I can promise you this, you will continue being uncomfortable with a world you constantly question the realities of.

• Not to mention the fact that human nature can't help but fight against the things of God. The NT reminds us that they actually war against each other.

• This is why Hebrews tells us that our faith in God is the foundation under everything that makes life worth living.
•  
• Proverbs 3:5-6,MSG- Trust GOD from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for GOD ’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; He’s the one who will keep you on track. Don’t assume that you know it all. Run to GOD! 

• A big part of a life of faith is accepting the fact that God's never going to ask us to do something we can't, or that He hasn’t already grace us to do.

• This is Paul's point to us from Galatians, "I live my new life, still in my humanity, by the faith in Christ."

• And the more we keep our eyes on Jesus, the more we are transformed into His image.

• Here's a revelation, what if we asked God to help us with our prayer life?

• And just like we develop natural communication skills, Christians can develop spiritual communication skills. To the point of spiritual language.

• But because of false teaching, unbelief, religious opinion, not to mention the stereotypes that exists, there is so much confusion on this subject. So talking about spiritual language is something we’ve got to get into.      

• Here’s something to keep in mind, God is not a God of confusion.
• So when it comes to any biblical truth that we're unsure of, here’s God’s basic rule;
• 1 Corinthians 13:1,NKJV- Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.

• And when it comes to spiritual language, unfortunately there is so much confusing on the subject, that a big part of the body of Christ simply neglects its realities.

• Here’s the thing, as the born again, we are a new creation, a speaking spirit, currently confined to our humanity.

• At the end of the day, it's just like any other truth from God; it can only be appropriated by faith.

• Think about it, God is the designer and creator of His church. And I find it interesting that on its birth, He introduced spiritual language at the same time.

• And from that point there's not one scripture indicating that He changed His purpose for spiritual language, or that it's no longer necessary.

• The same Holy Spirit that came to empower The Church at its birth is still here and hasn't changed.

• Spiritual language is simply another dimension of communion with God and His creation.

• The Holy Spirit doesn't speak through you. You speak, inspired.

• Understand this, spiritual language is voluntary participation with the Holy Spirit. Every biblical account of tongues was done through the cooperation of believers.

• But for the sceptic, even if you refuse to put away the religious unbelief; listens to Paul's words in 1 Corinthians 14:39, So, my dear brothers and sisters, be eager to prophesy, and don’t forbid speaking in tongues.
•  
• If you think about it, spiritual language is just as scriptural as John 3:16, or Romans 10:13, "whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."

• So as we dig into this subject of spiritual language, the overwhelming majority of everything around it comes out of the Apostle Paul's writings.

• He graduated from one of the most recognized universities of his day. 
• An elite Pharisee. One of history's most respected and quoted thinkers. And second only to Jesus in establishing Christianity globally.

• 1 Corinthians 14:18,NIV-  I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you. 

• What's really sad is that most of the people that so strongly appose speaking a spiritual language, quote Paul's writings in all their other Christian beliefs and teachings.

• Every biblical account of tongues was done through the cooperation of believers.

• Mark 9:23,NIV- “ ‘If you can’?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for one who believes.”

• The same Holy Spirit that came to empower The Church at its birth is still here and hasn't changed.

• Acts 2:4,NKJV- And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

• Peters first sermon was to a group of confused people who just witnessed spiritual language. And the first thing he does is take them back to the Word.

• Always remember, any spiritual reality will always be proven through God's Word.
• Here's the thing, after God introduces this spiritual reality, there's not one scripture suggestion it was only for a season, or that it wasn't to continue until He returns for His church.

• If you think about it, spiritual language is just as scriptural as everything else we've discussed concerning prayer.

• Now 10 years after Acts 2

• Acts 9:17-18,NKJV- And Ananias went his way and entered the house; and laying his hands on him he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you came, has sent me that you may receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.” Immediately there fell from his eyes something like scales, and he received his sight at once; and he arose and was baptized. 

• Acts 10:44-46,NKJV- While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word. And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also. For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God.

• 20 years later

• Acts 19:1-6,NKJV- And it happened, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, having passed through the upper regions, came to Ephesus. And finding some disciples he said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” So they said to him, “We have not so much as heard whether there is a Holy Spirit.” And he said to them, “Into what then were you baptized?” So they said, “Into John’s baptism.” Then Paul said, “John indeed baptized with a baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe on Him who would come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.” When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. And when Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

• It's interesting that after God introduced spiritual language it   continued throughout the entire book at Acts. So regardless of your view on this matter, something we should all keep in mind; spiritual language is God's idea. 

• 1 Corinthians 14:1-2,NIV- Follow the way of love and eagerly desire (NKJV, pursue) gifts of the Spirit, especially prophecy. For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries by the Spirit. 

• A few purposes of a spiritual language:
• 1. Personal praise and worship.
• 2. Self-edification. (Jude 20, Building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit.)
• 3. Praying out divine secrets.
• 4. Public exhortation.

• 1 Corinthians 14:4-5,NIV- Anyone who speaks in a tongue edifies themselves, but the one who prophesies edifies the church. I would like every one of you to speak in tongues, but I would rather have you prophesy. The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues, unless someone interprets, so that the church may be edified.

• This passage simply distinguishes the public and private application of a spiritual language.

• 1 Corinthians 14:14-15,NIV- For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful. So what shall I do?  I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my understanding; I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my understanding. 

• Paul makes it very clear that praying in his spiritual language is simply praying from his spirit, not his intellect.

• Something else I would point out here, individually or corporately, we see no signs of hysteria or abnormalities.

• Let me also add this; spiritual language is not an escape from reality, or some self-induced state of mind. As with any other spiritual reality, our God given will is something He will never override.

• Remember, Paul makes it very clear, “If I pray in tongues, my spirit prays.” Then he says, :I will pray with my spirit and my understanding.”

• 1 Corinthians 14:18-19,NIV-  I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you. But in the church I would rather speak five intelligible words to instruct others than ten thousand words in a tongue. 

• 1 Corinthians 14:31-33, NIV- For you can all prophesy in turn so that everyone may be instructed and encouraged. The spirits of prophets are subject to the control of prophets.For God is not a God of disorder but of peace—as in all the congregations of the Lord’s people. 

• MSG- If you choose to speak, you’re also responsible for how and when you speak. When we worship the right way, God doesn’t stir us up into confusion; he brings us into harmony. This goes for all the churches—no exceptions.

Rev. Mike raised a question, "How much of our lives do we keep a hold of past rejections, hurts, and lies that the devil has told us? Have we been able let go of these wounds?  Have you ever run into someone else’s past wounds and accidentally offended them without meaning to do so because you didn’t know their past?"

While hunting for dinner, the big brown bat must hone in on flitting insects and keep track of its surroundings to avoid crashing into them. Now, scientists have taken a peek at what’s going on in these bats’ brains while they swoop and dive. They identified a brain region that helps the animals map where objects are in relation to their own bodies, and saw that individual brain cells changed their behavior while the bats focused their attention on a particular object. The findings could help us understand certain aspects of attention issues in people as well as how bats and animals navigate while on the move. Jeff and Anthony check with their doctors to see if Batterall is right for them.

JJ Virgin is one intimidating, yet amazing, woman. Seriously. I've had a chance to hang with JJ on numerous occasions over the past several years, and, at over 6 feet tall, strikingly beautiful, fit, muscular and with a sharp, keen intelligence and wit, she's one of those women who probably would have been a queen or, perhaps, an Amazonian warrior were she born at some other time in history. But, in fact, JJ is actually a celebrity nutrition and fitness expert and author of 4 New York Times bestselling books: The Virgin Diet, The Virgin Diet Cookbook, JJ Virgin’s Sugar Impact Diet, and JJ Virgin’s Sugar Impact Diet Cookbook. But her recent memoir, Miracle Mindset: A Mother, Her Son, and Life’s Hardest Lessons, in which she explores the powerful lessons in strength and positivity that she learned after her son Grant was the victim of a brutal hit-and-run accident, is perhaps the most meaningful and life-changing of all her titles. One of my biggest takeaways from the book was the enormous number of frustrations that JJ  encountered while attempting to navigate the modern medical system, and to keep her son from dying, not recovering properly, or being seriously harmed by modern medicine, along with her extreme willingness and stubbornness in incorporating every aspect of alternative health and natural medicine into a modern hospital setting...with shocking results. If you want to be fully equipped to deal with any trauma that might land you in a modern hospital industry or having to deal with close-minded physicians and caretakers, this podcast is a must-listen for you.

During our discussion, you'll discover:

-The shocking story of the hit-and-run with Grant...[8:50]

-The biggest frustrations JJ ran into at the hospital, and with Grant's physicians and nurses...[19:05]

-How JJ got 10-20 grams of fish oil each day into Grant...[25:10]

-What JJ did with essential oils...[29:20]

-Why JJ would rub progesterone cream into Grant over and over again during his recovery...[31:20]

-The superpowered smoothies JJ gave to Grant when his feeding tubes came out...[45:00]

-How JJ used stem cell harvesting and stem cell IV's in Grant's therapy...[51:20]

-The advanced biohack therapies JJ has used in combination with physical therapy, from ping pong to earthing, grounding, gardening, neurofeedback and more...[59:20]

-For people who wind up being in the modern medical system having to deal with the trauma, where you can find the biggest pieces of advice from JJ...[64:55]

-And much more!
