    First in All Things: A Testament of Faith and Priority

    Welcome back to "God Will Protect and Love You," where we embark on Season 2 with an episode that promises to deepen your faith and enhance your spiritual journey. In "Rediscovering Faith: The Foundation of Prayer," your host, Jermaine Whiteside, shares a powerful narrative from the heart of Anointed Connect Church's mission to foster global faith and empowerment. This episode unveils a transformative moment during a pivotal church meeting, where the suggestion of committing to daily group prayer before any undertaking led to a profound personal revelation. Jermaine delves into the unexpected divine lesson learned from dismissing this spiritual practice and how it reshaped his understanding of God's priorities for us. Drawing on scripture from Matthew 6:33, Proverbs 3:6, and James 4:8, Jermaine explores the importance of seeking God's kingdom first, submitting to His will in all our ways, and the promise of drawing nearer to God as He draws near to us. This episode is not just a story but a testament to the power of prioritizing prayer in our lives, setting a solid foundation for the season ahead. Join us as we discuss the critical role of prayer, the humility of learning from divine correction, and the eternal truth that without God's blessing, the pursuits and accolades of this world are but fleeting shadows. This episode is for you whether you're seeking inspiration, a reminder of faith's essentials, or practical advice on incorporating prayer into your daily routine. Rediscover the foundation of prayer with us. Let's journey together into a season of deeper faith and closer communion with God.

    I WILL ANSWER YOU

    “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened” -( Matthew 7:7-8 ). If God is a loving Father with the ability to give His children incredible things, why doesn’t He place all things at our fingertips at once? In this promise, Jesus promises that we will find what we’re looking for if we submit to the process of asking, seeking, and knocking. Through asking and receiving, seeking and finding, knocking and opening, God helps us comprehend the depths of His Fatherly love and giving nature. We can’t be entitled to or ignorant of His blessings. We are now fully aware of our needs as children and His provision as a good Father.

    Introduction

    What does the Bible say regarding God's Amazing love? God's love takes many structures all through the narratives of sacred writing. Portions of the Bible even allude to God as love itself. Love can be defined as wanting what is best for someone, which is exactly what God expects of us. God essentially loves you because He treasures you. You don't need to work for His kindness. You don't need to sort yourself out before God can pour His love over you. God loves you. It's difficult to get our minds around, but it's true. This is where the faith journey begins: understanding that God loves you. If you don't have an affirmation of God's love, your faith journey won't go very far. Fortunately, reading the Bible can assist with fortifying your faith in God's love. No power is more impressive than our heavenly Father's love for us, His children. His love can move mountains, stop the thundering oceans, recuperate broken bones and injured hearts, change lives, and set free those held hostages by transgression and disgrace. So extraordinary is His love for you and me that He sent His main child to bite the dust so we could survive Him. God is not a furious disciplinarian who shows love just when you succeed. He is a caring Father who will continuously cherish and safeguard you regardless. Make time today to gain an understanding of His love for you. Permit His love to protect you, recuperate you, change you, free you, and lead you to the generous life He has consistently yearned to give. Read, think about, and implore over these Bible sections about God's amazing love and security as you stroll in confidence today.

    “I must start by thanking my awesome wife, Simone. From support me over the years and reading early drafts to giving me advice on the cover to keeping the Kayla out of my hair so I could edit, she was as important to this book getting done as I was. Thank you so much, dear.” “He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord” (Proverbs 18:22). “Writing a book is more complex than I thought and more rewarding than I could have imagined. None of this would have been possible without my good friend, Elder John Bryant. He has been a good friend and business partner, encouraging my ideas and providing wisdom to my thoughts. He stood by me during every struggle in building this foundation of view for the next generation. That is true friendship.” “I thank my grandmother Flossie Whiteside for raising with the teachings of Jesus Christ.” “I must thank my aunts Dyanne and Gayle, who taught me compassion for others and their continued love and affection. Thank you for always being the person I could turn to during those dark and desperate years. They have sustained me in ways that I never knew that I needed

    INNER PEACE OF GOD ALL AROUND

    Individuals discuss having “inward harmony,” and we can feel that internal harmony is a character quality that specific quiet individuals naturally have more of than others. At different times, inner harmony is portrayed as something individuals can foster by following an example of loosening up contemplation strategies. However, the sort of harmony Paul depicts is altogether different. The fact that everyone can get it means it’s not something a couple of individuals can understand; it is a present. Also, when Paul says this harmony “rises above all getting it,” he shows that it isn’t something we can deliver independently. “I have directed these sentiments toward you, that you might find harmony in me. On this planet, you will face adversity. However, cheer up; I have defeated the world.” “Harmony I leave with you; my tranquility I provide for you. Not as the world gives do I provide for you. Allow not your hearts to be upset, neither let them be apprehensive." John 16:33, Song 72:7, John 14:27

    YOU ARE THE LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS

    (Ephesians 5, Psalm 11)35. Remember the song “This Little Light of Mine”? Although simple, the song’s lyrics are packed with truth. When we find life in Christ, we are raised out of the darkness of our sinful state and become a light in an otherwise dark world. Jesus’ love illuminates a radically different way to live, transforming us and making us light for others in the darkness. This transformation into children of light happens as we follow Jesus’ example and walk in step with the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 5:7-10)36. Think of it like leaving a dimly lit office on a bright, sunny day. When you step outside, your eyes take a minute to adjust to the brightness. That’s how radically Jesus’ love changes our view. As we grow in our relationship with God, our eyes adjust, and it’s hard to remember what life in the dark was like. Evidence of our old selves—sexual impurity, greed, and coarse talk—disappear as Jesus’ love overflows from us. And the more we experience His love, the more we are compelled to sacrifice and submit to one another. We were made in God’s image, and it’s Him that our hearts long for. When Psalm 11:7 says, “the upright shall behold His face,” it’s talking about you. Don’t hide your light or let Satan blow it out. As you go about your day today, remember that you have received Christ’s love. Ever notice how someone in love glows at them? The glow that comes with remembering you’re Jesus’ beloved will be a light to everyone you meet.

    TURN TO GOD WHEN YOUR HEART GROWS WEARY

    (Galatians 6, Psalm 6)32. Desperation can lead us to do things we’d never imagine. When the pain is overwhelming, the pill doesn’t look so bad—when our debt is crippling, taking the deal or cutting a corner doesn’t seem like as big of a deal. “Dear brothers and sisters, if another believer is overcome by some sin, you who are godly should gently and humbly help that person back onto the right path... Share each other’s burdens, and in this way, obey the law of Christ. If you think you are too important to help someone, you are only fooling yourself” (Galatians 6:1-3)33. When it all gets too much, we need the gentle encouragement of a good friend. We need people who will help us keep going, who won’t look down on us for feeling tempted but will remind us who we are and the power we carry inside. In Christ, we are eternal beings. So whatever happens on Earth is not the be-all and end-all. It’s a snapshot of a much longer story. The Holy Spirit reminds us of that all the time. He’s the gentle voice that says, “Keep going, kid. This isn’t all there is.” If we draw near God in the hardest times, we’ll see His Spirit strengthen and shape us in ways we can’t imagine. Paul promises that if we do not grow weary in doing good, we will reap a harvest of blessing (Galatians 6:9)34. Sometimes that blessing comes in the form of a new job, an unexpected relationship, or a long-awaited answer to prayer. But other times, blessing is harder to point to. It’s the intimacy that comes after weeping to God, and the confidence that comes from Him show up in friends and church family.
