What in your life is affecting your identity in christ?

Has past experiences been holding you back from recognizing your royalty status?

This past Sunday we had a special message focusing on royalty. As we go through life, we inevitably come across people and situations that seek to undermine our image of ourselves as God made us. 

At times we can become frustrated with how people treat us and what goes on in our daily lives. This makes it all the more important to remind ourselves of our royalty, and the special relationship each one of us has to God. 

The word tells us that Jesus was "despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering and familiar with pain." this lets us know that through our walk, we can be rest assured that he understands us as he's gone through the same struggles.The price Jesus paid for us on the cross, solidifies our royalty status in him.

What are you still holding onto that Jesus has set you free from? What shackles are you remaining in that you no longer serve? God is not calling you into bondage, He’s calling you into freedom!

This Easter Sunday we are reminded that because of the ultimate sacrifice on the cross, we are made free and do not have to walk in bondage any longer. Jesus died a slaves death on the cross for us, and through that we have been redeemed. On the cross, Jesus didn’t make just the minimum payment, He paid it all. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

The cross sets us free but the empty tomb invites us into life and out of death. Whatever it is that you are walking through today, Jesus says, “it is finished.” Paid in full. You have been set free from everything that once held you captive.

What if this year, you took charge? What are the possibilities if you take ownership of your life in this next season? A career you’re striving toward, family to be saved, a relationship you’re cultivating. We all have a goal in life, to be successful. The only true way to success is obedience in what God has revealed to you. Let’s start walking in obedience on today’s revelations before we ask God for more!

Pastor Jeremy Johnson also shares with us “The Heart for the House” -  the vision he has been given for the future of our church. We as a church are believing and proclaiming these three things over our church and our personal lives: Empowerment, Multiplication, and Paradigm Shift! Let this message empower you to have faith through vision, and not sight!

On this week’s podcast, we continue on with the incredible new series, I Love My Church. Pastor Jeremy Johnson of Fearless LA demonstrates the importance of sowing seeds on good soil to produce fruit that remains.

Through scripture we see that God does everything in our lives through the sowing of seeds. The soil unlocks the seed in our lives, however, if there are weeds in the soil, those will grow too.

We see that good soil unlocks true potential in the seeds that we sow. What we reap depends on our hearts position.

When we want fruit to remain in our lives, the only way to keep it is to create deep roots. The word says, “When we have a ready heart, the insights and understandings flow freely. But if there is no readiness, any trace of receptivity soon disappears.” -  Matthew 13:12 MSG

Pastor Jeremy teaches us that magnified and multiplied blessing is in the seed of the fruits in our lives. Fruit is for the present, seed is for sowing. We are encouraged through this podcast to bring our soil out of a temporary pot and get planted where we can grow and create deep roots in faith, family, and community.

On this week’s podcast, Pastor Jeremy Johnson discusses the importance of the heart in our series, I Love My Church. He uses scripture to simply remind us to fix our eyes on God in all circumstances and not on our hearts or on our worries. God’s is always for us, in us and with us in all situations.
