WEEK 3: Trust that God Will Provide - LISTEN NOW!

Now that the temple had been restored as a house of prayer and worship, 2 Chronicles 31 continues to describe where King Hezekiah next put his focus:

Hezekiah puts his trust not in material possessions, but in the LORD, and commands the people to do the same.

This leads to HEAPS OF PROVISION.

In other words, once temple worship was restored, once the people were freely bringing their offerings and tithes into the House of God, the LORD released blessings over everyone.

MORE THAN ENOUGH.

Why?

Because HE is Jehovah Jireh: THE-LORD-WILL-PROVIDE.

🎧 Take a listen and don't forget to take note of the 3 promises of God's provision to declare over your life today.

Did you miss Monday night's study?
New in 2021, every Wednesday afternoon at 4pm ET, I will be going LIVE on the Soul of Worship Ministry Facebook Page to do a full recap of that week's online Bible study!

If you missed both, you can watch the Facebook LIVE video here!

PLEASE NOTE: 

I did start off with a prayer over our nation since the timing of yesterday's live was shortly after things began getting chaotic at the US Capitol. 

I believe our role as believers is to proclaim the PEACE of Jesus Christ at all times. The authority of peace that Jesus gives us is the authority over all chaos. 

May we continue to pray for peace and pray for our leaders, every day and no matter who is in office. 

With that aside, dive deep into John Chapter 1 with me and receive a greater understanding of the following main topics:

• Jesus is the Eternal Word
• Jesus is the Light
• Receive & Believe = Supernatural Rebirth as Children of God
• Jesus The Word Becomes Flesh
• Grace upon Grace
• A Voi

WEEK 2: Restore True Worship - LISTEN NOW!

Once the temple was cleaned, worship could be released.

As the temples of the living God, we too, once our inner temples are cleansed and sanctified by the blood of Jesus Christ, can release true worship unto the Father.

It felt so good to be back online last night for our Monday night Online Bible Studies!

God is revealing so much to us about His character and His fullness through this deliberately slow walk through the Gospel of John.

[Want to join the LIVE Bible Study on Monday nights? Register here!]

John provides such a beautiful revelation:

The Word is Jesus Christ and He is the eternal, ultimate expression of God.⁠
⁠
John links Jesus the Word with the Word of God at Creation.⁠

• Jesus was present originally with God!
  ⁠

In the beginning, God spoke the world into existence. ⁠
⁠
In the Gospel, God spoke His final Word, through the LIVING Word, His Son, Jesus Christ.⁠
⁠
Jesus reveals the unseen God to us, just as a word reveals an unseen thought. ⁠
⁠

Jesus conveys to us: ⁠

• the thoughts of God⁠
• the wisdom of God⁠
• WHO GOD IS.⁠

Mind blowing, right?

"In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it."
John 1:4...

WEEK 1: Carry Out the Rubbish - LISTEN NOW! 

What was the very first thing that Hezekiah did when he took reign over Jerusalem at the age of 25?

KING HEZEKIAH REPAIRED AND CLEANSED THE HOUSE OF THE LORD.

Listen now to see how we can and should be cleansing our hearts, the current temple of the Holy Spirit, as a first step in seeing spiritual breakthrough in our lives.

Remember, Jesus wants to fully dwell within us - but we have to make room and give God a clean area to abide in.

Back in 2017, when the Soul of Worship Ministry was just beginning I started a podcast with just 5 episodes. 

The episodes were really the building blocks of what would one day turn into the WORSHIP Bible study book, but since then I have been longing to have the time and resources to get back into podcasting. 

So my commitment to the LORD, and to all of you, is to make podcasting a priority again! 

I just launched the trailer for Season 2: How to Prosper God's Way and In ANY Season. It's going to be a 5 week (5 episode) series based on the life of King Hezekiah. 

Have you felt completely disillusioned by the type of year 2020 actually turned out to be?

What if I told you that even in the midst of the chaos, sickness, and division that God is still moving among His people?

Let me show you how studying the life of King Hezekiah can lead you to live a prosperous life that pleases the LORD, no matter what is going on in the world around you.

In this Season 2 of the Soul of Worshi...

Authentic Worship Requires an Authentic Relationship.

How can we authentically worship a God that we don't know on a personal basis?

Let's start 2021 by deeply studying the Gospel of John and getting to know Jesus through His ministry on earth.

John 1:14 says, "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth."

The more we understand and comprehend the character of Jesus, the more we will understand and comprehend the character of Father God:

• the fullness of His glory,
• the fullness of His grace, and
• the fullness of His truth.

Challenge yourself to have a deeper, more meaningful and intimate relationship with the Savior of the World, Jesus Christ.

Let's fall...

On Monday, I had an epiphany.

As I was preparing for our online Bible study, I re-read the following passage:



"Then, as He was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen, saying: 

“ ‘Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!’ Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!” 

And some of the Pharisees called to Him from the crowd, “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.” 

But He answered and said to them, 
“I tell you that if these should keep silent, 
the stones would immediately cry out.”'



Luke 19:37-40



And then it hit me. 



This thought just popped into my head: 

Could the rise in the number of earthquakes be the rocks crying out?!



😳😳😳



I immediately asked the Holy Spirit to confirm this to me.



When Jesus said that the rocks would cry out, did He mean that they would actually say or sing words of praise to God?

Or would t...

I have good news and bad news.

Which one would you like to hear first?

The bad news? Okay.

After much prayer and deliberation, due to the rapid rise of COVID-19 cases in our area, the conference committee and Pinebrook Conference center have decided to postpone the in-person MAKE A SOUND Worship & Prayer Conference to Saturday, March 27, 2021.

Bummer, I know.

But we have already been praying and fasting for Saturday, 12/12/20 to be separated as a special day of worship and prayer for our local community and for our nation. It doesn't feel right to just do nothing on that day.

So are you ready for the good news?

WE ARE GOING VIRTUAL!

Please follow Soul of Worship Ministry on Facebook and watch an adapted program via Facebook LIVE on Saturday, 12/12/20 beginning at 9:30am ET!

So now we will have no barriers from stopping us to share empowering words, worship, and prayer, to keep us firmly positioned on the Truth of God's Word during these challenging times.

It might look a litt...
