Dying for Others Sins | God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble. Grace is the power of God to do and to be all that He has asked of us. It is His loving kindness to pour into us His power. There is nothing like having a humble heart that allows us to rest in all of our life challenges instead of fighting the providence of God. One of the most needed lessons of the Church is to re-learn that heaven reigns in all of the affairs of men. Even that trial that you are going through right now has been allowed by God for some very positive purposes. But you must learn how to die to self well. It's one thing to have to die for your sins. But are you willing to take the hit for the assault of someone else's sins against you? Are you willing to take the blame so that others can go free? That's being like Jesus too. I know that all of your "that's not fair" statements and all of your "I don't want to be a doormat" thoughts will try to stop you. But no one has ever willing died to themselves by faith but that God has not given them a supernatural power and rest in the fiery furnace. When you're in the Refiner's Fire, or when someone else is, then the impurities will surface. That is where you can either choose to judge the fire out of others (and yourself), or you can realize that God has allowed this conflict of life to bring the impurities to the surface so they can be removed. That's dying to self too. If the Church can ever learn that, then they will walk in true unity, and God will be able to bless them with resurrection power. But too many people are looking for the power of His resurrection without being willing to die to self, and it isn't working. Dying is very painful. We go through the grief process. Very few will let us go through it without criticizing us and accusing us. But don't worry. God will deal with them. You just let God bring you through, and you will truly be a different person. | 10/30/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Freedom | Freedom from emotional tension, financial fears, relationship problems, certain people, pain, or one's own self is more of a heart cry than we realize in America. For a nation that prides itself on freedom there are a lot of people who are not truly free. Sometimes God doesn't free us from situations by taking them away. He frees us by teaching us how to "dance on the devil's doorstep." When our Adversary expects to look out and see us crying in despair, he sees us laughing and dancing instead, that is freedom. | 9/30/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Expect | There are many things that people expect that they don't even realize they are expecting. For example, whenever the hint of bad news or sickness comes along we expect trouble, misery and difficulty. If we have a financial threat we expect hard times. But the key to living in true freedom and living a new life in the Spirit includes right expectations of faith. Expectations that are based on faith will always release the life of the Holy Spirit to work in the moment. We need more than a far off hope of comfort and help. By the expectations of faith we can experience the present power of the Holy Spirit to supply all that we need for freedom and happiness both for ourselves and for others. | 9/20/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Overcoming | There is nothing like experiencing hope that can't be robbed. Faith in God is like that. However, the influence of the world is what keeps so many from experiencing such hope. If there is one thing that wars against our hope and faith it is the world. Overcoming the world is the key to victory, and it is done by faith alone. "This is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith." All of the hidden thoughts and unspoken expectations to have to measure up to some worldly standard is so debilitating. But God gives us a victory that is not based upon performance - a joy that is not situational. He gives us power no matter what the world may bring to us. | 9/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Your Blessing in Abraham | Abraham's faith demonstrated and established your own blessing from God based solely upon faith. To learn the depths of what God has promised you in the blessing of Abraham will unfold a treasure chest of hope and power to stand no matter what is coming against you. A few nights before this message God put a scripture verse in my heart as I slept. I kept waking up and quoting this verse all night long. It is part of your intended blessing. "The wicked flee when no one is pursuing, but the righteous are as bold as a lion." You can have that boldness by faith alone in what God has promised you because of His faithfulness to Abraham. | 8/18/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Pt 2 Rivers Within | Faith is exactly the opposite of every human reason why we should believe. This is the kind of faith that causes supernatural rivers of life to flow from our inmost being. God creates a faith in the deepest part of who we really are. It is a place where we are known in the inmost areas of our desires, secrets, and memories. That's where faith is nurtured and that's where life really comes from. This message includes an understanding of what it really means to fast, and why. It is part of the vision for a full life of purpose and power. | 8/12/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Rivers Within | Jesus spoke about a river of life coming from our inmost being. He won't just give us a refreshing drink when our soul is beaten down and empty. He will create a source of strength right from within us if we are willing to grow in faith in who He is. This fountain will come from our inner most being, right there where we have our deepest longings, hurts, and secret temptations. This is not a surface thing, but it is something that God works out in the very depths of who we really are. It is there that an inner source of strength comes from. | 7/29/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Pt2 Meant for Good | The conclusion to this message shows how the plan of God works in relationships when all seems lost. He has a higher and better intention for our lives than we could ever imagine. What seems to be a tragedy in life relationships is turned into the very bedrock for triumph over darkness and despair. If people would only recognize the hand of God working in their darkest hours and embrace the moment, they wouldn't so nearly as often miss the best things in life. To learn to live in dignity under pressure, and to learn to be trusted with authority and power by embracing the hard times with grace and understanding is true freedom. This is what prepares us to treat others with grace when we are in a position of power and blessing. | 7/23/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Meant For Good | There are life defining times in our lives when we don't understand why God allows such difficulties. They usually involve being hurt by those that we depended upon, those close to us. We cry out against what we see as injustice. But God has an incredible plan to use what seems so wrong to create something powerful in your life. | 7/15/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Pt 2 Coming Destruction | The conclusion of the message on the coming destruction of sin has caused many people to have to decide if they want to continue on with the coming move of the Holy Spirit. Some simply have demonstrated that they do not have that vision. There are reasons why a national sweeping revival has not yet happened in our generation. Without a vision of what God wants to do there is not the heart to complete the preparation. Decide if you are one of those that is going to be a part of the answer to the sins that plague our nation. | 7/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Coming Destruction | God is a destroyer in a sense that we may not realize. He has destroyed the power of sin and Satan. He has destroyed our adversaries that work to make our lives so miserable. This 2 part message will challenge you to work with the Holy Spirit against our common enemy - sin. If there were no sin, there would be no crime, no war, no disease, no pain. This does not mean that all of our misery comes because of some secret, or not so secret sin, that we have not repented of. But it does mean that there is a divine plan to give us power over the misery of mankind, and it begins with an honest embrace of a holy life. This message is only for those who are secure enough in the grace of God to hear what God thinks of sin's destructiveness. It is also only for those who are serious about being truly free people. The second part of the message includes an inspiring vision of how Jesus stands near you in the battles of life. | 6/28/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Pt 2 The Key to God’s Presence | When a person learns the joy of delighting in the Presence of God, that one has learned something of the true spirit of fasting. This also reveals to us how to begin the journey toward happiness in the face of all earthly losses. | 6/21/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Key to God’s Presence | The Bible teaches us to delight in the Lord and He will give us the desires of our hearts. The principle of delight is what makes everything in life happen. It determines what we want, why we get happy or sad, what motivates us to live responsibly or not, and just about everything in between. The heart wants what it wants and won't be satisfied until it gets it. The key to revival and to God's presence can't be cut short. Learning how to find unfailing delight is what this 2 part message is all about. | 6/16/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

God’s Gracious Presence | Many people don't understand the seasons of life that we are destined to go through. In those challenges we may respond to our own failures and the sins of others with something far different than God's plan for people. The fact that we know He is a holy God who will not allow sin into heaven, and the fact that He does not want it in our lives, does not mean He is vicious and harsh with us when we do sin. Much of our human failure comes from not knowing how deeply He wants to impress His love and presence upon us. Only as we behold the dignity of God's gracious presence will we understand, not only the conviction of sin, but the real power to overcome it. | 6/7/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Healed Body & Soul | The pursuit of healing for the soul, for the hurts, the attitudes, the inner struggles brings healing to the body as well. Here is the testimony of Steph Simich, healed of Type 2 Diabetes, and medically confirmed. | 5/26/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Pt 2 The Unsatisfied Life | It seems that much of Christianity today has settled for a life without the presence of God. Then they wonder where the power and the promises of God are. To know how God looks at us and what He wants must include a good look at the husband - wife relationship beginning with the beauty of the Song of Solomon. | 5/18/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

An Unsatisfied Life | Sometimes we don't know how to be loved right where we are. It is in the middle of that where God wants to come and recreate the desires in us that fuel our souls. Our inner desires work to define and set the very foundation of our hearts. The intimate and powerful presence of God, like that of a husband and wife, can go a long way in identifying the issues of a satisfied life. | 5/17/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Pt 2 Faith to Receive | For too long people have had lives where they seem to be running from pain. God intends to turn those who follow Him into people of faith and courage. He will do it. Our part is to learn how to work with Him in this. | 5/10/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Faith to Receive | The Christian life is like Israel's journey into the promised land. Here we see the lesson of the twelve spies and how God shows us to describe and define our adversaries and our promises. God wants us to know exactly what it is we are believing for and just what stands in our way. These tests are not intended to discourage us but to release intended blessings. | 5/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Rec. God’s Presence | The pursuit of revival in this weekly message from Cornerstone Family Church in Virginia, Mn is about finding the presence of God by faith alone. For too long Christianity has been known for its doctrines, denominations, and events. Our emphasis is on helping people discover the power of living for Jesus on a journey that is about supernatural strength instead of human will power, intellect and popularity. | 5/2/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
