THE PSALMS - UNLOCKING THE POWER WITH PRAYER & PRAISE!

Bring about permanent and radical change to your life and daily worship through an intimate, personal relationship with God.

Since they were written, the Psalms have been a powerful source of personal inspiration and spiritual strength.

When we lack the words to say, we can often open up to the Psalms and find that the psalmists seem to relate very well to our emotional pleas and deepest thoughts. 

When we apply a psalm to our lives, often it becomes the first step towards our own deliverance. 

A song of deliverance from the Psalms can bring words that are like honey to our souls. The Holy Spirit inspired words bring comfort, strength, healing, and remind us to keep our eyes up toward our Creator. 

Let's unlock together the Holy Spirit's power through prayer and praise, by studying:

• each of the 5 unique collections that make up The Psalms,
• the anointed songwriters who wrote them
• the common themes that we can still apply

Are you allowing your testimony to be heard?

A lot of the time, the enemy tries to put shame on our hearts and make us want to suffer in silence or not be transparent about the things we’ve gone through or places where God has pulled us out of.

But let us be like David - he was honest and transparent about all of his flaws, emotional stresses, and about his sin.

Yet, David always turned to God.

David sought God as the only solution, every single time.

And every single time, God delivered him!

And after every single deliverance, David released a new song.

Those songs are still testimonies that YOU AND I rely on to encourage us to keep pushing forward in the name of Jesus.

THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING of what we are going to be covering in the free virtual class I am hosting on Tuesday, June 14th at 8pm ET: SING A NEW SONG!

Learn how to release and offer to God the authentic worship that only you can bring, and perfume His throne with your unique song of praise.

How do pearls form?

The creation of a pearl is the result of a biological process. It is the oyster’s way of protecting itself from foreign substances. When something foreign slips into the oyster, it is immediately irritated. The oyster’s natural reaction is to cover up the irritant to protect itself. It covers the irritant over and over again until it eventually forms a pearl.


When an “irritant” enters our lives, we can either allow it to harm us, or we can cover it with praise as a form of defense.

We can say to that irritant, “You have come to try to steal my joy, but I know that the joy of the Lord is my strength. So, I will praise God anyway with joyful lips, and by His supernatural strength, you will have no effect on me!”

As we continue to cover that irritant with praise, it becomes a pearl, a precious gemstone of testimony.

In Week 9 of the WORSHIP: Are You Making a Sound? 12 Week Bible Study, we talk about how WORSHIP is a gateway into the presence of God and the correl...

We have all experienced the calming effects of a good song.

Whether it is your favorite song coming on the radio after a tough day at work, or watching a mother sing a soft lullaby to calm her baby to sleep, we have seen and experienced how music has the power to pacify and soothe a troubled spirit.

Do you think this is just a coincidence?
The Maker of all things certainly knew what He was doing when He gave musical sounds the ability to turn the soul from distress to the harmony of peace and love.

In the same way, our worship and praise have the power to soothe our aching souls and to clear our hearts and minds from all of the clutter and noise.

In Week 10 of the WORSHIP: Are You Making a Sound? 12 Week Bible Study, we talk about exactly this topic and how worship prepares our heart to hear clearly from the Father. 

This 12 Week Bible Study on the power of worship and praise is now available as an online course! Watch this clip below from Week 10: Worship Prepares the Heart to Hea...

PART IV: TIME TO ARMOR UP! 

For the first two weeks of this study, we reminded ourselves of our POSITION as believers in Christ.

Last week, we focused on what it means to "walk worthy of the calling" and all of the practical ways in which we can live triumphant lives guided by the Holy Spirit.

Ephesians 6 opens up with additional guidance on how to live Spirit-filled lives in the following relationships:

• Children & Parents
• Bondservants & Masters (Employees & Employers)

Then it will be time to armor up with the whole armor of God!

We are going to analyze each piece of the armor and how to use the whole armor of God most effectively.

The Purpose of Spiritual Warfare

We are to be prepared to engage in spiritual warfare as believers in Christ. Why?

• To release the power and victory of Jesus
• To push back the darkness
• To empower us and embolden us to SPEAK!
• That we may open up our mouths boldly and advance t

PART III: WALK WORTHY OF THE CALLING

For the last two episodes, we've been reminding ourselves of our POSITION as believers in Christ, as part of our Are You Battle Ready? online Bible study series.

We must live fully convinced, by faith, of the power we have through the Holy Spirit alive in us.

Now that we know how to stand, let's walk worthy of our calling as it says in Ephesians 4:1-3:

"I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace."

At the highest level, to "Walk Worthy of the Calling" means to:

• Live ethically and morally by the leading of the Holy Spirit
• Strive for ongoing maturity by the equipping of the Spirit
• Help others move forward in love and unity

If we follow these standards, ...

Know Who You Are - PART II

To recap last week’s episode, before we can wage war, we need to know who we are in Christ.

Ephesians 1 says we are blessed with every spiritual blessing, sealed and authorized by the Holy Spirit, and that we are carriers of His power and glory.

Wow! But it doesn't stop there.

Ephesians 2 & 3 provide even more descriptions of who we are as believers in Jesus Christ.

As we go through and turn these verses into “I AM” statements, I want you to be reminded of your value, of your purpose, and to be fully convinced of the exceedingly great power that is able to work through you, in the Name of Jesus.

Let's go!

The Soul of Worship - Are You Making a Sound? Podcast is BACK for a new season in 2022!

I believe it’s an incredibly prophetic and ground shaking year for the Church and for our communities.

Wells of revival are breaking open and I believe a great outpouring of His presence by way of worship-saturated prayer is on the way!

But we have to be aware that the enemy is going to try to stop us, distract us, and discourage us so that this great awakening doesn’t occur.

So I’ve been led by the Lord to revisit a Bible study we did back in 2020 called “Are you Battle Ready?”

It’s a 4 part study on the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Ephesians.

For the next 4 weeks on the podcast, we are going to be studying Ephesians to learn how to mature in our walks in Christ in order to be able to battle against the evil powers of darkness.

Before we can be CALLED TO WAR, we must first learn how to WALK confidently in Christ.

And befor...
