In Exodus 33, God says to Moses that He is up on the mountain alone. God tells him, "Hey, leave this place, you and the people you brought out of Egypt, and go to the land of promise that I promised to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and to [...]

The gift of God in your life is not your ability; it's His ability, and He is giving you stewardship. Now, if I were to give you my chainsaw—my chainsaw—and say, "I'm going away for six months; you can use this however you want," [...]

This is why James the Apostle writes, "Or do you think the Scripture says in vain, 'The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously?'" Now, what does the word "yearn" mean? It means He longs intensely and consistently for [...]

Who wants to become great? Now, let's just stop right there. Remember, these words are right out of Jesus's mouth. Now, I want you to look at this: whoever wants to become great. Now, I see so many Christians who are so down on being [...]

Moses took Israel out of Egypt; his destination wasn't the Promised Land. He didn't say, "Pharaoh, let my people go so they can go to their Promised Land." No, he said, "Thus saith the Lord, let my people go that they may [...]

And God says, "I don't want that kind of relationship. I don't want you to want Me because of what I can give you, and I'm not trying to look hip, My little bride running around with Me. I want people to really be impassioned [...]

Why was Abraham called the friend of God? Because when Abraham was old, God came to him one night and said, "Abe?" "Yes, sir?" "Yes, yes, Lord. I want you to take your son, whom you love so much, whom you waited for for 25 [...]

The Bible doesn't say Satan can transform himself as an angel, like it says he does; rather, the Bible says his messengers transform themselves as messengers of righteousness. Let me give you an example. Now, I don't want to pigeonhole [...]

Some of you may be called to build a great business for the kingdom, but you're currently working for someone else and trying to birth it yourself. Stay faithful in serving the person you're working for; work for them as if it were your [...]

The Bible doesn't say Satan can transform himself into an angel of light; it says he does. The Bible states his messengers transform themselves into messengers of righteousness. Let me tell you where the damage lies. I want to give you an [...]

My idea of serving God was that I would go to Harvard and get an MBA. I would marry a pretty girl, work for a large corporation, move up into management, make a lot of money, pay tithes to my local church, and take three vacations a year with my [...]

I'm telling you, every one of you has a gift, and what God wants you to do is multiply that gift. The way you multiply it is by using it, not being afraid, not thinking God is holding back on you, and not thinking you didn't get a fair [...]

Are you getting this? In other words, there's a behavioral change—that's what we pursue. How can Lisa pursue being my wife more effectively today? She can't. That's not written to unbelievers; "chase after with the intent to [...]

I'm talking to you about lessons I've learned the hard way. Why am I discussing this? Because I don't want you to learn these lessons as I did. I went through a lot of pain and suffering, and I want you to avoid that while gaining the [...]

On that appointed day when Jesus Christ judges mankind and the world, He is going to make decisions. He will conduct an investigation into every single one of our lives, whether you are saved or not. There are two different judgments, and we'll [...]

What I learned in my 30 years of ministry is that many Christians believe that because Jesus is our Savior, they will never stand before Him as judge. However, the Apostle Paul says quite differently. I want to read to you from 2 Corinthians chapter [...]

This is why James comes up in the New Testament. Now watch this: James says, «Do not be deceived.» See, if God says, «Don’t be deceived,» I have good news for you: you can live deceived-free. Would you please look at it like that? This is how you [...]

Where the change begins in the church, it does not start with electing good government officials. The change in our nation comes when the church changes. As the church goes, so goes the nation. If the church is weak and compromising, and if the Word [...]

In Exodus 33, God says to Moses that he is up on the mountain and that they are alone. God tells him, «Hey, leave this place, you and the people you brought out of Egypt, and go to the land of promise that I promised to give to Abraham, Isaac, and [...]

My grace is all you need, for my power works best in your weakness, or your human inability. In other words, He’s saying my grace is my power, and it gives you the ability to do what you can’t do in your own human strength. I’m preaching, and I feel [...]

Now do you understand why the Bible says… Look at Hebrews 2:1, we must listen very carefully to the truth we have heard, or we may drift away from it. When I was in prayer, you know, I’m going to tell you this right now: you guys know I’ve written [...]

So the question I’m asking you tonight is: what is your internal GPS set on? Do you even know? I mean, the Apostle Paul knew. Paul made this statement; he said, «I press.» Now look at the scripture: «I press toward the goal for the prize of the [...]

So this is what I want to ask you: What is your internal GPS set on? Your ultimate goal is what your internal GPS will be set on. If you look at Paul, he made the statement, «I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God.» His GPS [...]

What is revelation? Not its, it’s when God reveals something to you. When does it happen? It can happen in your morning time with God. It can happen while you’re reading the Scripture. It can happen while you’re listening to your pastor preaching. [...]

I’ve just listed some of the obvious; however, there are more subtle forms of legalism that are actually more dangerous. These are imposed and often self-imposed criteria that people strictly adhere to in order to earn salvation, grow spiritually, [...]

Proverbs says, I’m going to put the scripture up. Proverbs says there is a way; now look at these words: there is a way, there is a way that seems right. It seems good, it seems beneficial, it seems desirable, it seems pleasant, it seems fruitful. [...]

You can speak the truth, but if you speak it out of a desire to prove that you are right, that’s not love. I had a young man walk up to my resource table, and he said, «I’m called to what you’re called to. I’ve got a prophetic calling on my life and [...]

So let me tell you something: now more than ever, you better know what the word of God says. Now more than ever, we better love people the way Jesus loves people because, let me tell you, you can run people off so fast if you’re not patient with [...]

And this particular fast, I said, «Lord, what book do You want me to read?» I heard so clearly in my spirit, «Read the Gospel of Mark.» So I went over to Mark chapter 1, I read it, and the Holy Spirit stopped me, arrested me, and said, «You didn’t [...]

So the first phase of his strategy was to get her focus away from God’s generous provision, so she gives the response. Here’s her response: she says, «Hey, we can eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden, but the fruit of the tree which is in the [...]

Paul makes this statement to the Corinthian Church: he says, «But I fear that somehow your pure and undivided devotion to Christ will be corrupted.» Now look at the word «corrupted.» Just as Eve was deceived by the cunning ways of the serpent, I [...]

Is there anything better than the presence of God? There’s nothing, you know. When you think about those angels that have been crying out «Holy,» right, the seraphim? Has anybody ever thought—let’s just be honest—couldn’t they look at God and say, [...]

And all of a sudden, I realized how much Jesus talked about deception in the last days, and I’m thinking in that room, how can we ignore this? I mean, just four times in one chapter alone, they said what it is going to be like right before He [...]

I think we need to pray for our nation like never before. I think we need to proclaim the truth to our nation like never before because we have a confused people in this nation. We think we can have God and salvation while twisting and perverting [...]

I was in Sweden, getting ready to speak to 6,000 people. I had already written several books, and I was in my hotel room in prayer. I judged the situation to be good, but the Holy Spirit, in prayer, said, «No, son, you are seeing this wrongly; this [...]

Tonight, I want to talk to you, Believers. If you’ve taken the word of God with a casual attitude, do you know what I mean by casual attitude? I’ll read it if I get a chance. I’m not trying to create a law for you to read the Bible, but what I am [...]

Okay, now the scenario: you have a big field, like we're talking 10 miles, and in this field, there are landmines that will blow you up. Not only are there hidden landmines, but there's quicksand, poisonous plants, and sinkholes scattered [...]

This is why James comes along in the New Testament and makes this statement: he said, "Do not be deceived." I'm going to say it again; there's only one problem with deception: it's deceiving. The person who's deceived [...]

Step two is he negates the Word of God. So step one, he gets her eyes off of all that God's given her. Step two, he negates the Word. Step three, this is the clincher. Look what happens. Serpent says, "For God knows". Everybody say, [...]

And I heard the Lord say this so clearly; He said it wasn't the evil side of the tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil that Eve was drawn to. He said it was the good side. When I heard that, I opened my Bible to Genesis 3, and sure enough, [...]

If I look at our Western ministry, I'm talking about the church in America. I have been traveling for 25 years and have attended many meetings, conferences, and churches, so I believe I can speak to this because I've seen a lot. However, I [...]

People spend more time on social media today than they do on Scripture. They spend more time reading blogs than they do on Scripture. So, can we talk about Scripture for a few minutes? Sixty-six books of the Bible, written over a 1,500-year time [...]

Pursue holiness. What does «pursue» mean? It means to chase after with the intent to apprehend. He cannot be speaking about positional holiness here; he must be talking about behavioral holiness. Because look at what he goes on to say: «Without [...]

I went to work for this church, and you have to understand, I was raised in Michigan, so I’m not a Dallas Cowboys fan, and I know none of you are either. But, you know, I’m in Dallas now. Okay, so why don’t you just substitute Dallas for Pittsburgh? [...]

Alright, guys, we’re in lesson number five, and guess what? We’re now getting into the meat and potatoes of this whole thing. The next six lessons are the meat and potatoes. Now we can finally turn to the question: How do I discover what my calling [...]

Now, a final secret that I’ve learned when it comes to intimacy with the Holy Spirit is this: if you don’t engage with Him, He will be silent. You know, something I’ve noticed in my 24 years of traveling to churches is that when the person driving [...]

So anyway, you know I was raised in church, and my parents would bring me every week, but I absolutely had no relationship with God—none. It was quite obvious during my high school and college years; people were witnessing to me like crazy, and I [...]

Hey, I’m Jon Bevere, and I’m so honored to be a part of this online event. What an amazing occasion that’s happening right now! You know, the leaders I’m working with have asked me to share on the aspect of the fear of the Lord. You say, «Whoa, [...]

Acts 1:4-6: And being assembled together with them, He commanded—does not say He suggested, and it doesn’t say He recommended; He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem but to wait for the promise of the Father, which He had said, «You have [...]

Now that I’ve talked to leadership staff and team members from all over the country, I’m going to share something. After speaking to many leadership teams, I asked them to provide definitions of «faithful.» I’m going to give you a list of the [...]
