  When the people heard the sound of the rams’ horns, they shouted as loud as they could. Suddenly, the walls of Jericho collapsed, and the Israelites charged straight into the town and captured it. Joshua 6:20, NLT A Shout of Faith After the people of Israel had wandered in the wilderness for forty years, all that finally stood between them and the Promised Land was the city of Jericho with its huge fortified walls of stone and mortar. Nothing they had faced was as big a challenge, but they couldn’t go around it or go back. They had to conquer it to get to their destiny. God instructed them to march around the walls in silence once a day for six days, with no complaining. Then on the seventh day, on the seventh time around, they were to let out a great shout of faith. This was a battle cry of victory, declaring God’s greatness, and without that shout that activated God’s power, the walls would not have come down. There may be a Jericho in your life that’s holding you back, somethi...

  Our Unlimited Potential Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:24 “But to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.”  (ESV) If we could only comprehend what the Scripture says about our relationship with Jesus Christ, then our faith potentially would be greatly strengthened. The power and the wisdom of God literally reside on the inside of us. If we believe this and meditate on it, who knows what the Holy Spirit may choose to reveal to us,  “in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.”  (Colossians 2:3, ESV) In fact, from a human standpoint, they are unsearchable except by revelation from the Spirit of God.  “These things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.”  (1 Corinthians 2:10, ESV) “To me, though I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ.”  (Ephesian...

As Paul talked about righteousness, self-control and the judgment to come, Felix was afraid and said, “That’s enough for now! You may leave. When I find it convenient, I will send for you.” Acts 24:25, NIV Now Is the Right Time The apostle Paul was standing before the governor of Judea, a man named Felix, on trial for sharing his faith. Felix was very intrigued by Paul, and as Paul spoke about what it meant to be a believer and how to live a godly life, Felix felt convicted. He knew he was not living with integrity, that he needed to stop compromising, but he didn’t want to deal with it. Even though he was frightened by the coming judgment, he sent Paul away, saying he would call Paul when he found it “convenient.” Two years later, Felix was out of office, and we never read anything more about him. We don’t know if a convenient time ever came or if he ever dealt with what God was bringing to light. Don’t put off what you know God is speaking to you about. On the other side of that obed...

  True Faith in Christ Scripture: Romans 4:20–21, Hebrews 11:6 “Abraham never wavered in believing God’s promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger, and in this he brought glory to God. He was fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises.”  (NLT) “And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.”  (NLT) Abraham was a man who had true faith in God. True faith includes belief, conviction, dependence in the right object or person, and follow through with action consistent with the conviction. James said,  “In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.”  (James 2:17, NIV) Intellectual belief alone is not true faith. Faith in Christ and in what he has done on the cross includes conviction and dependence in him alone, which ultimately produces works through the believer. Jesus said,  “Very truly I tell you,...

  Introduction John 10:1–21: Jesus uses the images of a shepherd, a gate, and sheep to describe his relationship to his followers. The sheep know the shepherd’s voice and follow him. Unlike a thief who comes only to steal or destroy—and unlike a hired worker who fails to protect the sheep—Jesus, as the good shepherd, is willing to die for the sheep. Jesus’s words cause division among the people. Today’s Key Verse: John 10:11 GNT [Jesus said:] “I am the good shepherd, who is willing to die for the sheep.” Read 10 Jesus said, “I am telling you the truth: the man who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in some other way, is a thief and a robber.  2  The man who goes in through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep.  3  The gatekeeper opens the gate for him; the sheep hear his voice as he calls his own sheep by name, and he leads them out.  4  When he has brought them out, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him, because they ...

  Rooted in the Soil of God’s Love Scripture: Ephesians 3:16–17, ESV “… that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love… ” (Ephesians 3:16–17, ESV) This wonderful passage of Scripture should be read in conjunction with several of the surrounding verses to gain their full impact. The Holy Spirit is the great engine of power and capacity, enabling us to successfully fulfill the mission God has given us. We can meet the challenges in life as we allow the Spirit to strengthen us with his power in our inner being. This is accomplished by the process of  SOAK, SOW, and FLOW  with the Word and the Spirit of God. In fact, it is impossible to be a  CONVERTERLATOR  without the Holy Spirit working in our inner person. He cleanses us and strengthens us so Christ himself can live in our heart by fai...
