The greatest battles are often the wars we fight internally. Wrestling negative thoughts, while seeking truth can be tough. In Satan’s nature as the father of lies, he creates turmoil in our minds, creating spiritual bondage. However, when we seek God, the father of love, we experience freedom from every false word and begin believing the truth. While emotions are neither good nor bad, but created by God, we cannot let them dictate our lives. We must make Christ as our anchor instead because feelings can be fleeting and lead us to believing lies. When the internal war is waging, it can seem as if the deception of the enemy is too great of a burden to overcome. When we climb higher into the presence of God, is when we see bondages dissipate and our sights are set on who God is, rather than who we are not. As believers, it is important for us to remain alert to the lies and truth we are believing. In doing so, we are to take every thought captive and seek the Lord for a renewed mind. In our pursuit of God, we start believing the truth and see strongholds in our lives break. The more we dwell in the presence of God, the most we understand our call as children of God. We are no longer orphans when we change our ways of thinking through the power of Christ.

Jump into this impactful message. Pastor Jeremy Johnson preaches a powerful word on sonship. In the Sons and Daughter series, we learn God longs for us to connect to Him as His children. Today, we learn how in: Saying Goodbye to the Orphan.

Many have not experienced the feeling of family. The fear of not being accepted keeps people from being their true selves. God wants us to walk in freedom to connect to Him and others. He wants us to understand His unconditional love as the Father. This will allow us to flourish and become our true selves.

When we walk in the revelation of our identity as His children we gain access to His blessings in a new way. He desires for us to be able to walk in our full inheritance as His children. How do we begin to see God's true identity to understand our own? This week, we scratch the surface of this deep truth. Let's leave behind orphan hood and step into sonship together.

In this new sermon series titled “Sons of Thunder, Daughters of Zion,” Pastor Jeremy Johnson discusses what it means to live in the adoption of Christ. In this world we are slaves to whatever we allow lordship over our lives. Instead of living under the control of fear, we should walk in the sonship given to us as children of God. A revelation of our inheritance in Christ changes how we live our lives day to day.

Once we begin to see God as our father, and not just our savior, we begin to unlock the promises and blessings bestowed to us. It is this shift in perspective that we go from a lifestyle of slaves to sons and daughters of God. Then, we walk in freedom, understanding the bloodline of Christ brings fullness of life and joy. In God there is no more striving, but rest in the assurance that as His children we have all we need in Him.

When we are rooted and established in God’s love we can truly live in God’s sonship. With the Holy Spirit in our lives, He transforms us. It is then that we receive an understanding of the wonders of His love- how wide, how high, and how deep it is for us. It is in His love that we become more like Him and begin to walk differently because we know we are direct heirs to God Almighty.

This week, Pastor Jeremy Johnson bares it all. He presents us with a touching word about God's ability to help you start again. In Second Wind, he uncovers concepts to help us all achieve peace. Get ready to hit your second wind!

As we go through life, it is easy to get weary. Many times we can convince ourselves out of God's blessings. We may give up too early or believe the lie that God loves others more than us. That we are not worthy of achieving that thing we have been longing for. What if you were guaranteed a victory? Would give up half way or push through to the finish line?

God is waiting for us to press forward. It is easy to allow our minds to agree with negative mindsets for our lives. God wants us to focus in our His voice for us to achieve the impossible. Join Pastor Jeremy as he blesses us with incredible wisdom on crossing over into the promise land and getting a second wind. This is a message for the whole family.
