The First SELF
Eph.2:5 “That even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!)” [with emphasis]
The first “self” that you and I need to take to The Cross so that the power of resurrection can flow through us, is Self-righteousness. One reason we do not experience the fullness of Christ is that we think we are not so bad. Read the rest of this entry
Solid Rock
Num.22:17 “I will pay you very well and do whatever you tell me. Just come and curse these people for me!” 18 But Balaam responded to Balak’s messengers, “Even if Balak were to give me his palace filled with silver and gold, I would be powerless to do anything…” [with emphasis]
I declare over you today that in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, even if your enemy were to give their life’s worth to priests, or ritualists, or to wizards to curse you, they will be powerless to do anything against you. Read the rest of this entry
Backed Up
Jer.1:18-19 (MSG) “Stand at attention… I’m making you as impregnable as a castle, Immovable as a steel post, solid as a concrete block wall. You’re a one-man defense system… They’ll fight you, but they won’t even scratch you. I’ll back you up every inch of the way.” God’s Decree.”
God is going to crush every resistance of and every affliction from the enemy in your life, in Jesus Name. When you begin to become, expect resistance – just expect it. Jesus says, “I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail.” Read the rest of this entry
Living Witness
Acts1:8 “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth” [with emphasis]
Jesus is all about proving that He is alive and well. We have heard several testimonies of people that plug in to services in God’s Favourite House online and God delivers amazing results right there in their living rooms. Someone joined one of our communion services online. Read the rest of this entry
Body of Proof
1 Kings 18: 36 “…O Lord …prove today that you are God in Israel… Prove that I have done all this at your command. 38 Immediately the fire of the Lord flashed down from heaven and burned up the young bull, the wood, the stones, and the dust. It even licked up all the water…”
In God’s Favourite House, we are totally grateful for the Presence of the Holy Spirit and we are grateful that at every meeting, it pleases the Holy Spirit to deliver the burden of proof that He is alive. The burden of proof is His way of saying, “I am alive, I am here and I am in charge.” Read the rest of this entry
Ability
Acts1:8 “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth” [with emphasis]
When Jesus says, “…you will be my witnesses”, a lot of people think that all He is referring to is evangelism. Yes, it is evangelism but there are deeper implications. Jesus is saying to us, “You will receive power to become all that God has destined you to become. Read the rest of this entry
You First
Acts1:6 “So when the apostles were with Jesus, they kept asking him, “Lord, has the time come for you to free Israel and restore our kingdom?” …8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you will be my witnesses…” [with emphasis]
Everyone that followed Jesus while He walked the earth, even the people that followed Him closely, had an agenda for Him. And it was because they saw Jesus as a political deliverer, so there were very many attempts to make Jesus king. Read the rest of this entry
It Is Time!
Joshua 1:1 “After the death of Moses the Lord’s servant, the Lord spoke to Joshua son of Nun, Moses’ assistant. He said, 2 “Moses my servant is dead. Therefore, the time has come for you to lead these people, the Israelites, across the Jordan River into the land I am giving them”
Holy Spirit of the Living God, I declare my love for You today. I ask that You saturate my life with Your Presence. Let Your love, Your Presence and Your power flood my life forever. I am totally dependent on You. Guide me, teach me, lead me, instruct me, and grow me. Read the rest of this entry
Joy vs. Happiness
James 1:2 “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.
Nobody enjoys trials, not even Jesus. Jesus did not like the cross and He is the Son of God. Jesus told everyone that the cross was the purpose for which He had come but when He was faced with the cross, He ran to the Father. “Lord, if it is Your will make this cup pass over me”.

The Holy Spirit
Rom. 14:17 (KJV) “For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost”.
This Scripture gives us a clue into the source of joy. There are people that cannot get excited unless they take a substance. But after the substance wears out, they are back to being sober and sorrowful. But you and I have the Holy Ghost constantly with us so we are on a constant high. Read the rest of this entry
