Speak The Word with Pastor Jo

Friends, we allow the devil to take us captive every day, because we don’t know who we are in Christ. Or, I should say Who we belong to. I believe this is a big problem in the world today. In this message, I will share with you who you are in Christ Jesus, and the power and authority that He has bestowed upon us. I want to counter some of those lies that the devil has been feeding you about what you can, and cannot do. And put your foot on the devil for good.

Friends, there was a movie in 1985 called The Equalizer… it was about a man who at one time was a highly trained operative with the government, and he was now retired and set himself up to help those that couldn’t help themselves... the ones that the odds were against. Well, that’s exactly what The Word of God does for us. It becomes our Equalizer. God also puts us in a safe place too. He said only a spectator shall you be as you witness the reward of the wicked. Hallelujah!

The Lord showed me that we have to “Consider the Cost” of the foundation that we are building every day with every word that comes from our mouths. We are in a war Saints, whether we choose to believe it or not will not change the fact that we are. And, it’s a Spiritual Battle. The only weapon that can be used to “Fight this War" is the Word of God...not armor tanks, not bombs, not guns, but the word of God only.

Track 1From owning a couple of businesses to serving as chaplain at a men's prison, Pastor Jo recounts how she accepted Christ, started preaching, and got off medication that made her "like a zombie". Track 2Pastor Jo explains how when people speak poverty and sickness, it draws poverty and sickness to them like a magnet. But when they speak what God says about their prosperity, their ship turns around.

Friends, so many want to know what God‘s desire is for them. Jesus said His desire is for you and me. It is not about doing so many things to try and please Him, as so many of His children have been taught to do. God wants you to know that you have already pleased Him, saints. You abundantly pleased Him when you accepted his Son Jesus as your Lord and Savior…

Saints, in this message you will learn that our God is the God of new beginnings and according to His word His eyes are always upon us from the beginning of the year to the very end of the year. Actually He has His eyes upon us from the day we are born until the day we go home to be with Him, also His thoughts of us are so numerous we cannot count them.

Friends, according to Ecclesiastes 3:1, to everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven.  A time to search and a time to quit searching, a time to keep and a time to throw away. Tonight I want to talk about your season, a season to grow and expand… I also believe it’s a season to make a decision to put God first in our life and have a full understanding that there is ONLY ONE GOD.

Your words are the Most Powerful Weapon that God has given to you. Your mouth is your hearts tool for implementing, in other words your voice is the most influential voice in your life. Your neighbor‘s voice or your friend‘s voice is not the most influential but it’s YOUR VOICE. I believe this message will reveal the importance of your spoken words.

Saints, have you ever given any thought to the fact that you think into places? In this message you will learn that we think in our minds and we think in our hearts also… your heart is your “Control Center” of the soul, your mind, will and affections… your heart is a HIGH RISK vulnerable place because of sin. This is why the Lord continues to warn us about guarding our hearts.

Friends, In this message you will learn that your imagination is your spiritual womb. It is where you conceive your miracles from God. Your imagination is how you meditate in the word of God, and when you do, you begin to get a picture in your spirit and in your heart about what you're meditating on. I believe you all have Dreams and Visions. And God through your imagination has given you what you need to  receive them. Remember if you can IMAGINE it you can have it. Gen. 11:6.

The Power of Your Imagination/ Giving Birth to What You See...Friends, you use imagination everyday whether you realize it or not...In this message you will learn how to imagine the right things. This is what God is saying in Genesis 11:6 and the Lord said, behold, they are one people and they all have one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do and now Nothing they have imagined will be impossible for them. Think about that.

Friends, it is so easy to allow the enemy into our lives. In this message I believe you will learn how to keep the devil out of your life and keep him from bringing chaos in your life and your families lives. Learn how to keep that door shut... According to Romans 6:14... Sin is no longer your Master... for you no longer live under the requirements of the law... Indeed, you live under the Freedom of God's grace... Think about that!!!! Keep Satan away from your door…

Friends, Most of us have heard that old cliché’ “Sticks and Bones may Break my Bones” But Words Will Never Hurt me...Well, a bigger lie has never been told for Satan is just looking for an opportunity for you to speak what he has been putting in your mind...But know this “Thoughts May Come and Persist.in staying...But Thoughts that are not put into words or into action will “Die Unborn” Don’t let him trick you...Watch your Words!!!

Friends, In this message you will learn how Satan is working overtime to take you out...you will also discover that God is not the one holding out on you. That Satan and his demonic forces are the ones doing his dirty work for him...However, you are the one with the power to take him out...Learn to exercise your God given authority...

Friends, | believe God wants you to know that He does have plans for you, and that He has a vision for all of you. He is wanting you to seek Him for Direction. God is aware that you have Goals and Visions... and according to Jeremiah 33:2-3 The Lord who made the earth, who formed and established it, whose Name is the Lord says, “Ask Me and | will tell you remarkable secrets you do not know about things to come. Ask Him, He's waiting on you!

For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever. 2 Corinthians 4:17-18

Elisha told him, “Get a bow and some arrows.” And the king did as he was told. Elisha told him, “Put your hand on the bow,” and Elisha laid his own hands on the king’s hands. Then he commanded, “Open that eastern window,” and he opened it. Then he said, “Shoot!” So he shot an arrow. Elisha proclaimed, “This is the Lord’s arrow, an arrow of victory over Aram, for you will completely conquer the Arameans at Aphek.” 2 Kings 13:15-17

Friends, we all know that we are living in a different world today than what we are accustomed to. There is evil all around every corner. In this message you will be reassured that our God is mightier than any devil or demon and their days are numbered... to God be the Glory.

I Believe God...friends,  sometimes we all get caught up in a storm like Paul did in Acts 27:25...and most of the time it's because we didn't listen to the Holy Spirit. However, thanks be to God our Father, He will always come to our rescue when we repent and call upon Him. In Paul's case it was the others that didn't listen to Paul, but God sent an angel to his rescue to let him know that he would not be hurt. And Paul BELIEVED GOD. In this message you will be encouraged to Believe God too.

Friends, I believe as Soldiers for our Lord we want to know all that we can so we can be better Soldiers...to be more prepared to do battle with our enemy Satan. This message will help you to be better prepared to "STAND" no matter what he brings against you.

Friends, I realize we live in a world that is filled with much fear. In this message, I believe the Lord has given me a word that will encourage you and help you to step out in faith and know that no matter what comes your way, God Himself has you covered. See yourself as the Warriors that you are.

Friends, I believe there are many parents like myself that still have children and grandchildren that have not accepted Jesus. I know this weighs heavily on our hearts. In this message that the Lord has given me, I believe you will find hope through the prayers He gave me for you to pray over your loved ones. "Your Seed Will Be Delivered", amen.

Saints, we live what we believe and we do not always believe what we think we do. To get to the point of believing, first of all we have to become single-eyed, single-minded and get rid of all distractions. In this message you will learn that to be single-eyed means to realize that God is ALL there is...and what you believe about God and His Word will determine what you get.

Saints, STAND is such a simple word...an easy action. Not much thought is required to accomplish it. However, in this message you will learn that when sickness, disease, pain or suffering come against us, our first response usually is not to simply STAND against it. For the most part, we will either prepare to fight or quickly go into flight mode. The Word of God says we are to "STAND" recognizing that the battle is not ours, but God's.

Friends, in this message you will learn that Satan is like a big termite that slowly eats away at your life, robbing you blind of your health, your finances, your family...coming into your life disguised as an angel of light. In other words, like the termite, he comes in and does the damage and unfortunately many are unaware that he is the thief. In this message you will learn his tactics and prevent much of the damage.

Friends, in this message you will learn that as a born again Christian your name has now been listed in the Lamb's Book of Life. You will realize that there are still thousands sitting in the valley of decision, and as a great love for the lost Jesus is asking you to become one of the laborers. Learn through this message how you can please the Lord by reaching out to the lost and become a warrior for the Lord.

Friends, you may not have given much thought to the words you speak, however, the first thing that God did was not to create the heavens and earth, but "To Say". He said "Let There Be" and it was. There are so many unseen things that are yours that you still have not received from God. I believe this message will help you in getting those unseen things...hopes, dreams, etc.

Saints, I am so excited to share this message with you, for I believe that as you listen to it you will be less FEARFUL knowing that our Lord has His angels watching over you. His angels are not little fat babies with bow and arrows, but instead Mighty Warriors sent to protect you. This message will reassure you of His presence in your life.

Friends, It is possible to Believe for big things and to expect our Lord to work mightily in our lives. In this message, you will learn when we raise our level of thinking to His way of thinking and we begin to Think Big, Talk Big and Believe Big. and "Speak His Word", God will do big and then we will get supernatural results.

Saints, in this Word from the Lord, I believe you will see how important it is as warriors of the most High God to be about His work, and how rewarding it will be to know that He has allowed us to be a part of the end time Harvest. What an honor and privilege to serve the King of kings and the Lord of lords...

Saints, in this message I believe you will see that every word you speak is "A Coin in the Kingdom of Faith", and that what you "Confess" is what you will eventually Possess. And how careless words you speak can and will affect your health, your finances, your ministry and your family. You will learn that you can turn those words around to create what you really desire.

The Lord revealed to me that Satan's primary target with this corona virus was people over 50...in their 60's, 70's, 80's and on up. in this message you will learn why Satan has targeted the older people. The Lord is wanting to bring a Great Spiritual Awaking but Satan does not want to see this happen.  Learn why he is attacking the Kingdom of God. This virus is a visible manifestation of Satan's work.

Saints, in this message I believe you will learn that when you "Act in Faith" you can destroy the power of the enemy - his power over you to kill cancer, kill diabetes and to be delivered from any demonic spirit. With the Faith of a Mustard Seed you can and will be able to bring down any mountain. AND KNOW THAT NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH OUR GOD.

Saints, in this message you will learn that it is possible to turn your (ears) thoughts away from the oppressor (Satan) and turn them towards the thoughts that our Father is having of us - Thoughts of VICTORY. And even though we are going through some tough times and in the natural things aren't looking too good, you will know that while we might be locked down, Our GOD is not locked down and He is still working in the Supernatural helping us to fight our battles.

Friends, in this message I think you will realize that we ALL need to Re-Boot and Re-Focus our thoughts sometimes so we can have a Fresh look at things. Also, I think you will see that one of the most important things that our Father is looking for is OBEDIENCE. And because we love Him we will be obedient and do as He ask even if we don't always understand.

Saints, through this message God will confirm to you just how special you are, and that He has an assignment for you that no one can do but you...and Satan, nor anyone else can stop you from fulfilling it. Learn the 3 P's that will help with your prayers. "You Are Special"

Saints, you may not have realized it or even given any thought to the fact that you think both in your Mind and in your Heart. Jesus said “as a man thinks in his heart so is he.”(Prov. 23:7) The mouth speaks out of the abundance...the overflow of the heart. (Luke 6:45) The Tree is the Heart...the Fruit is the Mouth. When Jesus was talking about trees, He was talking about people. My point is "Your Heart can Think"...

Friends, in this message you will realize that our Father answers all our prayers and the ENORMITY of your prayer request is not a problem with Him. For if it concerns you, it concerns our Father. This should cause us as the elect of God to realize that nothing "Limits the Power of God" in making provision for His children. Remember, nothing is ever too Big to ask for. God owns it all (Haggai 2:8).

Friends, there is so much fear going on around us today. In this message, however, you will discover there is no reason to fear, for the Lord has us covered. And He has promised that when our enemy comes in against us, He will raise up a standard against him that will blow him into OBLIVION. It is God's awesome Standard... it is the Power of Jesus Christ. No need to fear. Through Jesus we already have the Victory. Amen.

Saints, sleep does not come easily during a crisis in your life.  Most of the time we toss and turn with anxiety thinking about our problem. I believe in this message you will realize that you can go to bed and sleep like a baby even during a crisis - like David did when he was being pursued by his son Absalom who was trying to kill David. Psalms 3:6: “Even though dark powers prowl around me... I WON'T BE AFRAID.” The Lord is watching over you too.

Saints, in this message you will know that God always hears your every prayer, for His Word says He does. And your prayers are powerful when prayed in faith, just like the prayers of Elijah when he prayed for rain. You will learn that even though things don't always look good in the natural, our God is working behind the scenes.
