Pastor Mark Stroud

Are you ready to P.U.S.H. your way into victory?

Behold the Army of God - Part 3: Jealous Love ​Why is God jealous for your heart? The secret to spiritual victory. ​In this third installment of our series, Behold the Army of God, we uncover the most critical requirement for every soldier in His ranks: Exclusive, undivided love. ​God delivered the children of Israel out of Egypt—they were wealthy, healthy, and "harnessed for war"—yet they carried their idols with them into their freedom. This act of spiritual adultery posed a massive problem then, and it remains the primary obstacle for the modern-day church today. ​In this message, Pastor Mark A. Stroud explores the dangerous intersection of idolatry and spiritual fruitfulness. From the first commandment given to the Old Testament church to the stern warning sent to the church at Ephesus in the book of Revelation, one truth remains: We have abandoned our first love. ​God is not distant; He is pursuing us with a Jealous Love. He desires the fullness of our devotion, not because He is insecure, but because He knows that as long as we hold onto our idols, we cannot be effective against the enemy or fully glorify Him. ​In this video, we discuss: ​The First Commandment Mandate: Why exclusive worship is the foundation of the "Army of God." ​The Ephesus Warning: What happens when the Church loses its "first love." ​The Anatomy of Jealous Love: Understanding the Father’s pursuit of your heart. ​Practical Consecration: How to identify and cast away the idols hindering your effectiveness. ​Scripture Reference: ​Ezekiel 20:7: "...do not defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt; I am the Lord your God." ​Revelation 2:4: "But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first." ​Ready to align your heart? Getting rid of our idols isn't just about giving things up—it’s about preparing ourselves to be productive, victorious, and fully devoted to the one who loves us most. ​#BeholdTheArmyOfGod #jealouslove #PastorMarkAStroud #firstlove #spiritualwarfare #ephesus #consecration #christianvictory #spiritualgrowth #idol #idolatry

Behold the Army of God When the children of Israel stepped out of Egypt, they didn't leave as a band of weary refugees—they marched out as the "Army of God". In this powerful message, Pastor Mark Stroud explores the profound transformation of a people who had been defined by 400 years of slavery. We dive deep into the moment they exited the land of oppression, not in chaos, but "harnessed for war," organized and prepared for the destiny ahead of them. What We Cover in This Video: The Divine Provision: Discover how God didn't just deliver them; He equipped them with both wealth and health, ensuring that "there was not one feeble person among their tribes." Delivered from Oppressors and Oppression: Understanding the difference between being physically free and being mentally/spiritually free from the weight of the past. The Trial by Fire: We examine the necessity of the Red Sea. Why did God lead them into a "dead end"? Learn how the trial at the Red Sea was a refining fire designed to prove their faith before they could inherit the promise. * **Enduring the Hardness:** Faith doesn't mean the absence of trials; it means having the strength to endure the hardness as a good soldier of Christ. **Stay Connected:** * **Subscribe** for more biblical teaching and community updates.

Can you be physically delivered but still spiritually trapped? In Part 2 of the powerful series, Behold the Army of God, Pastor Mark Stroud exposes "The Lust Trap"—the hidden baggage that has the power to sabotage your destiny, steal your blessings, and change the entire trajectory of your life. ​When the children of Israel miraculously marched out of the land of Egypt, they left with absolute health, wealth, and the supernatural backing of the Almighty. God had completely broken their physical chains. Yet, as they journeyed toward the Promised Land, many carried a deadly secret in their bags: the literal and spiritual idols of Egypt. ​They left the land of slavery, but they brought the culture of slavery with them. ​In this message, we unpack exactly how these hidden idols hindered Israel's relationship with God, led them directly into sin, and brought avoidable misery and pain into their lives. More importantly, Pastor Mark shares critical, biblical keys on how we can identify and avoid these modern-day "lust traps" in our own lives today so we don't block the blessings God has engineered for us. ​

We’re living in the last days. The Church of Jesus Christ must begin to stand strong in the mist of darkness. But we must stand with the combination of Word and Power. The Glory of God must once again be seen and experienced within the halls of the Church House. To accomplish this, God’s people must repent and Bring Back the Glory. Kingdomrock.org

Your world is framed by the words you speak and the words you have internalized. If your life is not what it should be, what did you say? Guard against fear-filled words, and speak faith-filled words continually over your life. Kingdomrock.org

The Golden Seed Men you hold kings and queens in your loins. Because of that you should be protective of your seed. Women you should be protective of your soil and guard who you allow to plant seed in it. Remember that a man who is not committed to you will not be committed to the child he makes with you. An absent father scars his child and leaves a hole in their heart that only Jesus can fill. Kingdomrock.org

What Did You Say? God has given us the ability of creative speech. The words that we say are powerful, and they will determine the direction of our lives. Guard your heart! Watch your words! Don't let the enemy trick you into speaking death over your life. Kingdomrock.org

Jesus wants to give us a continuous flow of strength. He wants us to live a carefree life. How do we do this? We exchange the yoke of our worries for the yoke of His word. His yoke is easy, and His burden is light. Don't let the enemy wear you out with the cares of this life. Cast them upon Jesus and find rest for your soul. www.kingdomrock.org

Beyond Death Losing a loved one is hard. As Christians we don't have to grieve as those who have no hope. The Bible tells us that Jesus went to prepare a place for us. Heaven is that place. For the believer, death is not an end but a beginning. It is a transition from this realm with its challenges and limitations to the glories of Heaven. There is life beyond death. Kingdomrock.org

God gives us the power to get wealth so that His covenant may be established in the earth. He then observes how we handle that wealth. If we are faithful, He imparts to us the true riches of Heaven. This is the outpouring of the presence and power of the Holy Spirit in our lives. www.kingdomrock.org

Stop the Bleeding God has given us the power to get wealth. Instead of continually asking Him for money we need to ask Him for the wisdom to activate that power. He has declared that we are His wealthy place. We must believe it and agree with Him. We need to study money and let it work for us. Jesus is our Lord. Money is a tool that we use to bring about God's covenant in the earth. kingdomrock.org

Are you living under a dark cloud of dread? Is your mind always preoccupied with bad thoughts of what "might happen"? Our lives should be full of peace not dread. I have good news for you! Jesus has given us the power of Overcome the Spirit of Dread. So, we'll talk about that today and much more. This message is part 9 of the series "Breaking Free". Please direct your prayer requests, comments, and donations to www.kingdomrock.org. Thanks so much everyone. Remember you are loved and appreciated. www.kingdomrock.org

We were created to both originate and imitate behaviors. The behaviors of those we spend time with will eventually manifest in our lives. How can we be among sinners like Jesus was and not become like them? We must be insulated through the truth of the Word of God. Continually pursue the presence of Jesus and study the word. You will then release your potential like never before. But you must always beware of bad company. www.kingdomrock.org

The first covenant, the law, was performance based. If you did good, you received good. If you did bad, you received bad. The sacrifices of animals had to be made continually and still only the outward person was cleansed. It did nothing for the inward person. Jesus came to fulfill the first covenant and establish the second covenant of grace. Because of His one and only sacrifice we have been forever redeemed. His blood cleanses us from the inside out. The penalty of sin is no longer attached to us. We are free! kingdomrock.org

The Lord has ordained the Body of Christ to rule and reign in the earth. To that end, we have been given great power and authority to manifest the will of God. Having power and displaying it are two different things. To find the answers, we must learn to walk the Path of Power. This message is part 9 in the series Fake Church.

We are spirit beings created by God to take dominion and subdue. He never intended for us to dominate each other but rather to rule over our own flesh, our own homes, and over the darkness around us. When we submit ourselves to God we have the authority and power to do this. You are anointed to rule. www.kingdomrock.org

The Bible says life and death are in the power of the tongue. With the tongue we can pronounce a blessing or a curse upon ourselves and others. Relationships and long term careers have ended because of words that were better left unspoken. How often has your mouth gotten you into trouble? If you’re tired of tasting “shoe leather” then this series is for you. We’re going to learn about the power of the tongue and how to use it for good. Join Pastor Mark A. Stroud in the series entitled, “Watch Your Mouth”.

You shall have just what you say.

Pay close attention as Pastor Mark Stroud reveals what our true enemy really is in this situation - it is not what you may think it is!

What is God expecting from us? We are masters at covering up darkness in our lives and portraying an IMAGE of light. There has to be a difference between the two.
