🔥 THE POWER OF PRAISE AND WORSHIP: HOW IT OPENS DIVINE DOORS

A Message from Lifeboat Rescuing Church of Christ

Yesterday, I shared a message on “The Power of Praise and Worship and How It Opens Divine Doors.”

Praise is more than singing when everything is going well. Worship is more than an emotional response to answered prayers. As believers, we are called to praise God because of who He is and because we trust His promises—even when our circumstances have not changed.

🙏 PRAISE THAT GOES BEYOND CIRCUMSTANCES

In the Old Testament, we find many occasions where God's people responded to His mighty acts with praise.

WHEN LIFE HAS LEFT YOU BROKEN, GOD IS STILL REBUILDING YOU

 

WHEN LIFE HAS LEFT YOU BROKEN, GOD IS STILL REBUILDING YOU

A Word of Comfort from Isaiah 54:11–12

To the soul that feels lost, broken, forgotten, and alone, this word is for you.

Perhaps you see yourself in the words of Isaiah:

“O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted.”
— Isaiah 54:11

Maybe the storms of life have battered you from every direction. Perhaps you have experienced disappointment, rejection, loss, betrayal, failure, or seasons of unanswered prayers. You may even be wondering, “Can anything good still come out of my life?”

To a soul feeling lost, broken, and alone

 

To a soul feeling lost, broken, and alone, here is a comforting word inspired by Isaiah 54:11-12.

---

My friend, perhaps you feel like the person described in these verses: "afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted." Maybe the storms of life have left you feeling battered and exhausted. Perhaps your world has been shaken, leaving you to wonder if anything good could ever be built from the broken pieces.

Jesus Christ Is Missing... How?

 

To the pastor, with deep respect and fervent prayer,

The story in Luke 2 is a profound moment in the life of Jesus, containing a powerful lesson for us today. When Jesus’s parents, Mary and Joseph, left Jerusalem, they assumed he was with them among the caravan of relatives and acquaintances. It was only after a full day's journey that they realized the unthinkable: Jesus was missing. They returned to Jerusalem and, after three days of frantic searching, they finally found him in the temple, "sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking questions" (Luke 2:46). 

10 PROOFS THAT YOU NEED JESUS CHRIST

 

“I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” — John 14:6 

 

Friend, you may have money, education, family, and religion. But without Jesus, you are empty. Here are 10 undeniable proofs that YOU NEED JESUS CHRIST today: 

 

1. BECAUSE YOU ARE A SINNER BY BIRTH AND BY CHOICE 

“Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.” — Psalm 51:5 

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” — Romans 3:23 

You didn’t learn to lie — it came naturally. Sin is in your blood. Only the blood of Jesus can wash you clean. 1 John 1:7 

 

5 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD NOT GO TO HELL

 

“For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” — Mark 8:36

 

 Friend, Hell is real. Jesus spoke about it more than He spoke about Heaven. It was not prepared for you. “Then shall he say… Depart from me… into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels” — Matthew 25:41. But if you reject Christ, you choose it. Here are 5 reasons why you must not go there: 

1. BECAUSE HELL IS A PLACE OF ETERNAL SEPARATION FROM GOD 

“Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord” — 2 Thessalonians 1:9

Prayer for Divine Protection & Destruction of Evil Altars

 

Prayer Time!

Prayer for Divine Protection & Destruction of Evil Altars

 1.     Spiritual Protection and Defense: Prayer Focus WITH Scripture Reference

 

Ø PRAYING FOR Protection from All EVIL AND OCULTIC Weapons:                                     Isaiah 54:17 (NIV): "No weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and this is their vindication from me, declares the LORD."

Stand on this scripture: render all cultic and witchcraft weapons against you useless. Pray and silence every tongue opened to hurt you.

Ask the Lord to deliver you from the striving of the tongues. 

LORD GOD ALMIGHTY, HAVE MERCY ON ME!

 LORD GOD ALMIGHTY,

HAVE MERCY ON ME!

 

 

“God be merciful to me a sinner.” — Luke 18:13 

“Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness” — Psalm 51:1 

 

Friend, 

Maybe you picked this tract because those words are already your cry. In the midnight hour. In the hospital ward. After the shameful act. When the debt payment notice came. When the doctor’s report broke you. 

Are you experiencing satanic attacks? Bad Dreams

 

Don’t be Afraid of them…God is protecting you!

“We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not” (1Jo 5:18)

“Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish”. (Isa 41:11)

“Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Lu 10:19

“He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.” (Job 5:19) ____________________________________________________

Under Grace, You Don’t Reap What You Sowed — But What God Sowed

 Gospel Expository🔥🔥

Topic: Under Grace, You Don’t Reap What You Sowed — But What God Sowed

Anchor Scriptures:  

Galatians 6:7-9, Romans 8:1, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Ephesians 2:8-10

 1. The Law of Sowing and Reaping Under the Law

Under the law, the principle was clear: “You reap what you sow.”  

Galatians 6:7 “God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.”

That was justice. If you sowed sin, you reaped death. If you sowed disobedience, you reaped judgment.  

I AM STRUGGLING WITH MANY SINS. HOW AM I SURE I AM A CHRISTIAN?

 SHORT GOSPEL EXPOSITORY

"I AM STRUGGLING WITH MANY SINS. HOW AM I SURE I AM A CHRISTIAN?" 

My Beloved, if this is your question, hear this: You are asking the right question. The devil wants you silent. God wants you honest.

1. BEING A CHRISTIAN DOESN'T MEAN YOU DON'T STRUGGLE.                                            The Bible never promises sinless Christians. It promises forgiven Christians. "If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves.” — 1 John 1:8

CAN A CHRISTIAN DIVORCE?

 

CAN A CHRISTIAN DIVORCE?  

A Short Gospel Message

My Breathren, let God’s word speak to us 🙏

Should they separate? Yes, in some cases.  

Is divorce a sin? God hates it.

I AM A CHRISTIAN BUT I DON'T GO TO CHURCH; AM I COMMITTING A SIN?

 

"I AM A CHRISTIAN BUT I DON'T GO TO CHURCH; AM I COMMITTING A SIN?"  

By Apostle Edward Freedom

SHORT ANSWER: No, being absent from a building is not the same as being absent from Christ.  

BUT... It depends on WHY you are not going.

Work on your mind !!

 Work on your mind !!

It is very important to know that our mind play a vital role in our Walk with the Spirit of God.

👉 Ephesians  4:23  ... "And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;"

Here we are told to keep renewing our mind. And the Word of God is the renewing agent. Feed on God's Word daily.

  👉 Colossians  1:21  .... "And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled"

 Here we see that:

- We became aliens to God and enemies in our minds 

- wicked works is a function of the mind.

But Thanks to God the Father for reconciling us back to Himself through Jesus Christ, hence we are no more aliens nor alienated.

   👉1 Peter  1:13  "Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;"

Here we are instructed to gird up the lions of our minds. It means to protect your mind and keep it strong and firm by the Word of God and guarding the Holy Spirit.

Beloved in the Faith of Christ. Your mind is your responsibility. Work on it.

Three keys:

1. The word of God

2. Pray always

3. Follow the leading of the Holy Spirit.

Have a good rest this night . 

See you in church tomorrow.

Apostle Edward Freedom

Things That We shouldn’t be ashamed of

 

1.   We shouldn’t be ashamed of suffering to defend our faith in Christ. (1Peter 4:13,16, Acts 5:41, 2Timothy 3:12, Matt 5:12, Phillip 1:29)

2.   We should not be ashamed of the Good news of the Gospel of Christ.  (Romance Hebrews 2:11 1:16, Mark 8:38, Acts 24:47; 1Co 1:18; 2Ti 1:8; Acts 13:26)

3.   We Ashamed should not be ashamed to identify with him openly wherever we may found ourselves. (Hebrews  2:11; Mt 28:10; Joh 20:17; Ezra 8:22; Psalms 34:2)

4.   We should not be ashamed of trusting in the Lord; The Code is “Trust in nothing or no one, but trust God for everything and everyone”. (Isaiah 30:1-7; Ps 62:10; Luke 12:15-21. James 4:13-15; Ps 10:4;= See Apostle Paul Practice it (Ac 18:21; 1Co 4:19; 16:7; Heb 6:3)  Prove  27:1)

SAY IT LOUD

·                

So that we may boldly say, the Lord is my helper and I will not fear what man shall do unto me (Hebrew 13:6).

            Now you have to boldly declare “The Lord is my helper”.

God is waiting for you to proclaim His word before He will perform it. What you have not declared God cannot confirm. After prayers, believe and then confess it. Confess the expected result at the face of obvious challenges. David confessed his expectation; that he would kill Goliath through the help of God, and it happened for him.

Concerning Jesus, He could not escape the law of positive confession.

He is not here; for he is risen, its HE SAID. Come see the place where the Lord lay; (Mathew 28:6).

            Notice, “AS HE SAID”. Jesus said it and now it has happened.

Go  on and tell the world that the Lord is your helper. Confess it until you begin to see it.

 

It is not by feeling you may not feel it. Your feeling can’t move God.  God pays attention to His Word Which you believed and declared with your mouth.

You shall long enjoy the help of God . Amen.

Prayer: I RAISE MY BATTLE AXE!

 Bible Root FOR MY PRAYER IS Job 11:20 – *“But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and they shall not escape, and their hope shall be as the giving up of the ghost.”*

 

Now I declare in the name of Jesus Christ!

- Let the eyes of the wicked that is against me fail them in the name of Jesus.

 

- Let the strength of the wicked that is against me and my marriage fail them in the name of Jesus.

 

- Let their feet slid and let sudden fear strike them down that hate me and my family without cause in the name of Jesus.

 

- Let the hope and expectation of them that do wickedly against me and my marriage and family; be frustrated and cut off in the name of Jesus.
