Foundational Podcast F Dean Hackett

Being a disciple of Jesus Christ means we need to swim upstream. We don't swim with the world, but against the world.

While we live in a 21st century world, we are citizens of a greater kingdom and higher authority. it is that kingdom that is the answer for mankind and mankind's ills.

God has given us kingdom authority, but this power is not motivated by domination, intimidation, or control. It is not self-centered and tyrannical.

This kingdom authority is benevolent and it's greatest expression is love, mercy, and grace.

How do we, in a practical way, bring that kind of power and authority into the world?

That is what today's podcast is all about.

Noah built an ark to save his family at a time when wickedness of human beings was extreme.

The Bible says every imagination of their thought was only evil continually. They had become so corrupted and filled with wickedness that every waking moment was filled with thoughts of wickedness.

Jesus spoke of that time and said that in the last days it would be as in the day of Noah.

We are rapidly approaching that time, and we must build an ark for our family, not to isolate our family, but to insulate our family.

"I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one." John 17:15
Isolation will not help your family stand in the fear of the Lord against a corrupt culture.

We want to build an ark with the right materials to insulate not only this generation, but also future generations.

"Therefore know that the LORD your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments" Deuteronomy 7:9
In today's podcast, I am sharing with you how to raise up a generation that fears the Lord in this corrupt culture, and how we can build a strong foundation of the fear of the Lord for many generations.

Your present and present circumstances do not have to determine your future and your identity.

Joseph was in prison under false charges. That could have easily become his future and his identity, but he refused to let that happen. Instead, he became 2nd only to Pharaoh in Egypt.

It's a choice you make to stand up and stand alone in living a whole new life in Jesus Christ by a new identity that empowers you to stand against the cultural norms and stand for righteousness and holiness.

We can do this because all things are become new!

Learning to live in the power of "others may I cannot" will require you to keep a humble, gracious, loving spirit so that you're not being critical and judgmental.

It's also important that in this generation there is remnant that will rise up and say, I will not let culture and peer pressure to determine what I do."

This is what I talk about in today's podcast.

God promised the Israelites that if they would meditate on His law day and night, they would prosper and have good success. God was going to lead them into a land inhabited by their enemies; but He would prove that He was the one and only God by driving their enemies out before their eyes.

God has promised you a land, too.

But we live in a culture saturated by philosophies that are at war with God's Word. Choosing to live obedient to every word of God sets us at odds not only with our unbelieving friends, but with progressive Christianity.

The question is: will we hesitate to step out in faith to possess the land, like the Israelites did, or will we be willing to step out in obedience to God?

That is what I'm sharing in today's podcast.

There are a lot of people who have very strong beliefs, but it's not convenient to live by that belief, they will adjust it according to the situation or the people that they are around.

They are called preferences: strongly held beliefs that may adjust when the situation requires it.

This is okay when it comes to what you eat for dinner: You may prefer a steak dinner, but fast-food is more convenient right now. But when it comes to building a family we cannot afford to raise our children according to preferences.

If we raise our children with strongly held beliefs that adjust when circumstances dictate it, we are building our family with the wrong kind of framework and it will not stand when faced with heavy pressure and storms.

Instead we must build our family on convictions: core values that a person is willing to give their life before violating.

And that is what I'm sharing about in today's podcast.

Daniel was able to advance and see God's blessing in his life, even in a pagan culture because he had an upper room and went to that room three times a day. His upper room relationship with God made it possible for God to work on his behalf.

Even in the fact of persecution and rejection, he refused to pull back from his upper room; and because of that he continued to see great blessing.

We may be wondering why God isn't moving or intervening on our behalf, and sometimes it's because we have the door to our upper room closed. But like Daniel we're in a spiritual war.

There are way too many Christians today wore out with the stuff of life, busy with their work and play and with their schedule, running their kids from one sport to another, thinking that sports will keep their children out of drugs and crime, not realizing that it's not sports that will keep them out of world, it is a strong spiritual walk with Almighty God that will keep them out of the world.

So many have closed their eyes to what's really happening.

We are in a war of spiritual strongholds, ideology, reasoning and philosophies and values. It's a war of world view.

How do we fight that war?

That is what I am talking about in today's podcast.
