BORN FOR THE STORM
 
Are you looking for a boat to go fishing? I suggest you get one that can withstand a storm. Do your research to see if it was made to resist High Winds and rough Waters. It needs to be constructed strong enough to withstand the pressures and dangers of the storm.
In this life that God has placed us in, he promised us that there would be storms in our lives. However, he spoke piece to us when he said to be unafraid, for I will never leave you, nor for the sake of you.
I love the story of Peter walking on the water with Jesus in Matthew 14. The disciples were caught in a sudden storm and had rowed the boat four miles in the middle of the night, trying to rescue themselves from danger. Suddenly, they saw what they thought was a ghost walking by and cried out in fear. 
It was then they heard the familiar voice of Jesus when he said fear not. It is I been on afraid.
One thing you can guarantee about a storm. It always brings fear at some level.
Because you and I were made in God's image, we have built-in storm-resistant capabilities. We were born for the storm.
One thing to remember about the storm is that it offers great opportunities for miracles and unusual supernatural events.
In the storm, Jesus showed the disciples a level of supernatural power they had never seen when he said to the storm hush be still.
They were fearful and deeply amazed at the same time.
It was in the storm that Jesus appeared. He challenged Peter to enter into a supernatural realm, which he had never experienced before when he walked on the water.
Because we are supernatural beings created in God's image, we have been born for the storm, and some of us are storm chasers.
We have discovered that it's in the storm where our most incredible faith and revelation come from.

DO YOU KNOW JESUS IN THE PRESENT?
 
It's a simple question that I am asking today, and by doing so, I am bringing our attention to what it means to walk in the light as he is in the light. When we learn the practice of being in his presence as a daily habit, we know what it means to know Jesus in this present time.
Too many Christians know the Jesus who walked the shores of Galilee, healing the sick and feeding the 5,000. They have gone to Sunday school and learned where he was born and how he died. They are well-versed in the Jesus of the past.
On the other hand, a disproportionate number of people study the Jesus of the future—the one who is coming someday to rescue them and take them to heaven. There are lengthy and repetitive teachings on the end times and what will happen someday, somewhere, somehow.
It's not unusual for Christians to tell me. Oh yes, Pastor, someday when we get to heaven, we'll have joy, be at peace, and be healed.
The challenge that the Holy Spirit gives us is to know Jesus of the present. The Scriptures tell us plainly today is the day of salvation.
That word salvation includes everything that Christ has done for us to be saved, healed, delivered, and walk in the power of the Spirit.
This is what it means to know Jesus in the present, To have fellowship with him, and to see him face-to-face often.
There was a historical Jesus who lived and died in Jerusalem and produced redemption for us. Thank God for that.
There is a Jesus who will return someday, as the Scriptures promise. Thank God for that.
However, God chose to give you and me the responsibility and privilege of bringing the gospel to this generation, and because of that, we must know him now.

HEAVENLY GOLD, DISCOVERED BY THOSE WHO SEEK HIS FACE
 
The revelation of Jesus Christ and what he has done for us and through us is the greatest discovery you will ever dig out of the Scriptures. That revelation does not come from the wisdom or the intelligence of human thinking; it comes from the revelation of the Holy Spirit to our spirit.
Heavenly gold has to be mined out of the Scriptures just like earthly gold is dug out of the dirt and rocks. And as it is in the natural, so it is in the spiritual that heat must be put to the rocks and the dirt to refine the gold so that it may be useful.
Heavenly gold is no different. To receive revelation from the scriptures you read, you must apply the heat of the glory of God's presence to understand the hidden secrets of God's kingdom.
Isaiah 45:3 tells us that God will give us the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of the secret places.
Psalms 91 says that we must dwell in the secret place of the most high to receive the revelation of those hidden places.
Where is the secret place of the most time? It is in the presence of the Lord as you seek his face in prayer, worship, scripture, meditation, and the Fellowship of the Saints. All those practices will produce a place of glory, where those hidden riches in the Scriptures can produce gold treasures of revelation that will impact your life for eternity.

AT EVERY CHALLENGE, GOD CHALLENGES, THE CHALLENGER-WE WIN BY DEFAULT
 
The key ingredient in living a life of faith is exercising the muscle called obedience to the word of God that has been revealed to you. The revelation of the word of God is different than the information in the Bible. The scriptures tell us that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Rom 10:17
When Jesus said to those around him," he that hath ears to hear, let him hear." He was referring to that inner ear, the ear of the spirit, which gives revelation of the word of God. When you hear with that ear and respond to what you hear, faith is born in your heart, and you receive what God has promised in the word that you Heard.
Romans 10: 8-10 illustrates this action of faith: when you hear and believe, you receive salvation and eternal life. From that point, your faith grows stronger each time you will be what you hear with your heart, that inner ear.
When we have that foundation of trust in the Lord, we know that when the enemy comes against us to challenge us, God challenges the challenger, and because of that, we win by default.
Isaiah 59:19 declares that when the enemy comes in, like a flood, the Lord raises up a resistance against that enemy.  King James's version of that verse says he raises a standard against him. The standard is the battle flag of an army showing their colors. When God shows up with his angel army, the battle is over. He challenges the challenger, and because of that, the one who challenged us never shows up to court, and we win our case by default.
That is what the life of faith is based on: trusting in the Lord with all of our heart, and not leaning to our own understanding, but in all of our ways acknowledging him, and he will bring it to pass.

WHAT LABEL DO YOU LIVE UNDER?
 
What's wrong with this picture? The Protestant Reformation happened around 1500 years ago. It was a separation from the Catholic Church based on Martin Luther's revelation that the "just shall live by faith" and not by the rule of a church or under the control of a pope. Today, 30,000+ different labels of groups of people are trying to express what a Protestant is. 
That's a lot of heavy bondage on the body of Christ.
Unfortunately, human nature was still in control, and it wasn't long until the protestants wanted to kill the suspected heretics just like the Catholics had done.
It was the same Spirit that Jesus contented with when the disciples came to him in Mark 9:38 and complained that someone outside their camp was casting out devils. They're anxious question to Jesus was we've got to do something about that.
Jesus had quite a simple rule about unity. He answered them and said well, fellas, if they're not against us, they must be for us, so leave them alone.
In 1906, there was an outbreak of the Holy Spirit in Los Angeles, California, on Azusa Street. A black man named William Seymour received the Holy Spirit while he listened to reports of it in a Bible school in Texas. 
Coming to Los Angeles, the Spirit of God fell on them, and a prayer meeting in their home, eventually moving into an old Mission on Azusa Street.
It was like the shot that was heard around the world.
The outpouring of the baptism of the Holy Spirit, with speaking in tongues and all the gifts of the Spirit that were manifested, literally went around the world from that humble mission house.
Unfortunately, human nature took over again, and the first separation happened in the Pentecostal movement when the black brothers and sisters were shoved aside. They started a fellowship called the church of God in Christ.
From that point in time, it seemed that labels began to be important to the Spirit-filled folks. What started with one outpouring to describe Pentecostalism has splintered into literally hundreds, if not more, of labels that people live under.
At some point, if we're going to see the kingdom of God advance, we must have one label: Jesus Christ and him alone.
True fellowship is with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Everything else is secondary.

POCKETS OF WISDOM AND REVELATION
 
Why do some people in a large or small gathering who are listening to the word of God not hear the same thing? After a life of pastoring multiple churches, it's still beyond frustrating that someone can sit in the same congregation, hear the same message, and miss the point completely.
I conclude that the problem is not in the seed that's sown; according to the Book of Mark, the fourth chapter, it's the ground that makes the difference.
Jesus repeated this phrase many times: "He that has ears to hear, let him hear." That tells me that everyone has the ability to hear, but they also make choices about whether to hear.
In the thousands of church services I have conducted, someone has a breakthrough, a revelation of heaven, a divine encounter, yet the one next to them walks out the back door, angry at God and the church.
Jesus chose 12 disciples to train and leave the kingdom of God in their hands. These 12 disciples sat with him after the mass crusades, and he taught them the secrets and mysteries that no one else heard. The large crowds didn't get it, but he gave the inside revelation to the disciples.
Judas was present at all of these private meetings, where the Son of God opened up the mysteries of heaven, yet he missed them completely. Wisdom and revelation of the kingdom of God and his purpose for us continually come from the heavenly realms. 
It's like digging for gold, these pockets of wisdom and revelation. The most important tool we have to dig out this precious gold of heaven is the instrument of "believing faith."
To receive anything from the treasures of heaven, it takes a believing face in God and his word. The Scriptures tell us that without faith, it is impossible to please God, for he that comes to him must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him.
Wisdom and revelation of the kingdom of God are there. Get your big leaving face out and find it.
