Liberty Life Center Podcast Pastor Dawn Rene' McCann

At Liberty, our passion is to provide an atmosphere where Holy Spirit is welcomed and free to do whatever! We want Liberty to be a place where people encounter God and He empowers us to engage in reaching the world for His Kingdom. We want the Presence of God and the Power of the Holy Spirit demonstrated in our lives with freedom. Liberty’s Mission is to love God passionately and serve others significantly by embracing, displaying and sharing God‘s love. Liberty‘s Vision is partnering with Jesus to continue His mission to disciple, empower and transform individuals, cities and nations. God is reestablishing Liberty in our core values of Freedom, Connection, Generosity, Development, Spirit-empowerment, and Love, to help us accomplish our mission and move forward together, equipped and build together by God Himself.

The Bible has many accounts of people having experiences with Jesus where He came into their situation and settled it forever for them that He is real, that He does miracles, and that Jesus is God. God wants to come into your life, too, and give you an “It’s too late” moment, where from that moment forward no one could ever talk you out of your faith in God. It’s too late, because you’ve already experienced Him, already received His help in a tangible, life-changing eventful moment! Jeff encourages everyone that if you want an “It’s too late” moment with God, where God personally, supernaturally intervenes in your situation He will give you one. He wants to reveal Himself, and He wants you to hold onto your “It’s too late” moment and have faith that no one can talk you out of! It’s just TOO LATE, because you are already totally convinced because you have personally experienced God in your life!

Christ’s resurrection and victory over death and the grave is the evidence of our victory and ability to live an overcoming life. We have been united in Christ, and it is His resurrection power that gives us the power to always live in victory. His DNA is our DNA! In God‘s Kingdom, you are the apple of His eye, and He gave you the keys to the Kingdom, as well as the keys for you to have all authority. A lack of hunger for God and a lack of hunger for the greater works of God keeps us from doing the miracles that God wants to do through us. We are waiting on God for revival, but God is waiting on us to be revealed in our authority and power to partner with Him in signs, wonders and miracles! Pastor Dawn showed a powerful clip of Comedian Michael Jr. to illustrate how God wants us to pay attention and partner with Him.

Pastor Dawn shared that her beloved niece, Danielle, had a stroke this week, and went to be with Jesus. But even in her young life, Danielle modeled a rewarding relationship of depending on God through every challenge, and knowing Jesus as her greatest treasure. When you understand who Jesus is, and what He has made available to you, you will find Him in your darkest moments, leading you through to see that He was holding you through all you faced. The key is accepting and receiving Him. God loves you so much that He has allowed Jesus to be found easily when you search for Him. In God’s love is the security everyone is looking for. He is the way to know true peace in your soul.

We may not understand the timing of God, but we do know obedience to God‘s unusual requests brings unusual supernatural results. The disciples obeyed Jesus in the unusual request to seemingly steal someone’s donkey and bring it to Jesus. Jesus was fulfilling prophecy and involving His disciples because He was preparing them for the future. God wants us to be willing to obey Him in unusual ways and trust Him for the results for building His Kingdom. There are those that will listen and those that reject, but love is still calling. God is engaging all of His disciples to disciple others by the gifts He has given us, and it’s time for us to know how big is our God, and how big He is on the inside of us!. When we do the unusual things He asks of us He can bring the miraculous! There is a celebration coming in heaven, and all who respond to Him will get to be part of it! In Revelation 7:9-10 we read of “a great multitude of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, WITH PALM BRANCHES in their hands, praising God!

Over the last few years, so much has happened and God's people have all been under attack by the evil one, but God is ready to roar back and restore what was lost, stolen, or destroyed. When we are under attack, part of the plan of the enemy is to wear away at our purpose. In Judges 6 and 7 Gideon experienced this too! After being oppressed by invaders, he felt defeated and forsaken, but God had a plan and could see Gideon's purpose even when Gideon could not. Gideon had to realize he was chosen by God for a specific purpose unique to him. Then Gideon had to tear down lies he had believed that kept him from trusting God. After he took a prophetic action and tore down the altar of Baal and the personal lies he had believed simultaneously, Gideon had to lift his eyes up from his circumstances to trust in God. When we realize we are chosen by God, tear down lies, and lift our eyes up from our situations, we are ready to do the last action Gideon took to realize his purpose: command in the wisdom of God. Gideon went from being timid and defeated to commanding fearlessly and having his purpose re-established. God can and will do the same for us when we say "yes" to Him. Healing, restoration, and purpose go hand in hand when we're following Jesus!
