Would you rather be right or righteous?
It’s a new episode of our Faith series, and today, Joseph Z and Jeremy Pearsons enlighten us on how to receive from God. Jeremy references the Book of Proverbs 4:20 to explain how wisdom stands at the intercession of life, requiring us to decide the right path to take. He clarifies that God placed his wisdom amidst the noisiness associated with the intercession of life, thus, we find it within us if we pay attention to what matters. He charges us to make an effort to tune out all the noise, to hear what the word of God is saying.

In like manner, Jeremy reminds us that God’s words are life while urging us to guard our hearts with all diligence, because out of it comes all the issues of life. He cautions us to be wary of the pressures of life because they can drive us away from Jesus; hence, we must guard our hearts to keep them from being overwhelmed by the pressures of life. On the other hand, Joseph makes us realize that most people who are very critical are led by a demonic spirit, that seeks to destroy all those who give in to their subtle acts of deception. 
Further, Joseph warns about being carnal with the word of God, that is, reading the word, not for the sake of its transforming power, but as a tool to show one’s knowledge in arguments. In like manner, Jeremy instructs that we question the motive behind our critical behaviors, deliberating on whether we want to be right or righteous in the sight of God. He then urges us to identify the authorities God has placed in our lives and acknowledge them for our protection.

“Set a watch over my mouth. May the meditations of my heart and the words of my mouth be pleasing to you”.
On today’s episode of our Faith series, Joseph Z and Jeremy Pearsons teach about how to walk in faith. Jeremy begins by referencing the holy Book of Isaiah 43, where God asserts that He is doing a new thing, to remind us that there are things that God’s word requires that we forget and things we’re charged to remember. He brings to our knowledge that it takes faith to forget the old and put the goodness of God into remembrance.

Also, he leads us to understand that there are two groups of people in the walk of life, those who receive Christ’s salvation and those who resist it; hence we must choose where we belong, the resisters or the receivers. He makes us realize that the biggest problem in the body of Christ is the dogged determination to correct one another, always looking for faults and something to use to accuse our fellow brethren; while observing that love is absent in the hearts of those who cling to criticisms. 
Again, Jeremy instructs that persecution is the pressure that drives us away from God’s word, and when we pay heed to them, we become like the seeds that fell on the shallow ground in Christ’s parable of the Sower. On the other hand, Joseph makes us realize that judgment is for God and those who judge others are sowing seeds of judgment in their future. Interestingly, Jeremy explains that faith works by love and our faith works when we know how much God loves us.

In our Faith series today, Joseph Z and Jeremy Pearson guide us further into how to step into faith. Jeremy acknowledges that so much has been said about faith and grace, however, faith goes beyond the belief in God’s existence. Not only is it a belief in the existence of God, but also that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Also, he explains that our walk of faith is continuous, and should be seen in every decision we make throughout our lifetime on earth.

Again, he leads us to the Book of Hebrews 11:1, which defines faith as the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. Moreover, he interprets hope to mean expectation; revealing also that faith is the foundation for hope, which is an expectation. Interestingly, he brings to our understanding that Abel’s offering to God was accepted because he offered his gifts by faith but Cain did not. 
Jeremy insists further that faith is a continuous walk with God, for without faith it’s impossible to please God, and those who come to God must know that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.  He then prays for everyone at crossroads, that the wisdom of God will fill their hearts, to guide them towards the right direction.

Take heart, and stand strong!
In this live broadcast, Joseph Z alerts us about a prophetic cry hitting the land at the moment, a call to listen to the voice of God, and a wake-up call to pay attention to what the spirit is saying. He insists it’s time to pay attention to what the Lord is saying because there's great pressure in the atmosphere, what with AI running rampant, and climatic issues witnessed recently.

He reveals an anointing of restoration is upon us, and there are pieces of us lost in difficulties that God has gone ahead to restore to us. He warns that there will be more cyber issues and some unparallel things breaking loose; regardless, he urges us not to forget that the Lord is with us and will indemnify everything lost in the storm. 
Joseph further asserts that a provisional anointing will aid us in navigating through these difficult times; hence, it’s time to pay attention to what the spirit is saying to us. He assures us that we will be alright because God’s favor and anointing are upon us while insisting there’s a turnaround coming for every one of us.

Learn how to live and walk by faith in today’s live broadcast, as Joseph Z and Jeremy Pearsons share insights into faith. Jeremy instructs that faith is a constant expectation of the good yet to come. While grace is God speaking to us, it reveals the great love of Christ for us but requires a faith response to be activated in our lives because faith is the only appropriate response to grace.

He further explains that faith begins by hearing and how we respond is where faith comes into question, for where there’s no response indicates no honor. He leads us to the Book of Mark 3:1-5 to remind us about how the man with the withered hand was healed, how he responded to the command of Jesus to stretch out his hands which led to his healing after he stretched out his hands. In other words, his response of stretching out his hands was an act of faith on his part, which made him whole. Recall that Christ always attributes his healings to the faith of the ones He healed and not His own; such was also the case in the woman with the issue of blood. 
Additionally, Jeremy leads us to understand that if there’s no power in our words, we are far from being born again because when we speak, there should be a power response. He then prays that the eyes of our understanding be enlightened, that we may know the hope of our calling.
