2023 - Teachings

Jennifer shared how our Lord Jesus preached the gospel of the kingdom of God, and healed every sickness and every disease among the people. Jesus was not proving who He is; He was demonstrating what His kingdom is! For the Kingdom of God is not just a lot of talk; it is living by God’s power. (1 Corinthians 4:20 NLT) For this purpose Jesus was sent! (Luke 4:43)

Today we are commissioned to carry on Jesus’ mission! To SEEK the kingdom of God, to SEE the kingdom displayed with power, and to SPEAK the gospel of the kingdom!

A testimony is the written or spoken record of anything that God has done. Testimonies reveal the nature of God; His will; His very heart. An awareness of the nature of God creates an expectation in our hearts for God’s ways to be manifested in our lives. And a prophetic anointing is released through the testimony. The Hebrew word for “testimony” does not only mean to tell about or give witness of something. It also means to repeat, to do it again! God has hidden the miracle realm FOR us, not FROM us, in the form of the testimony! In this message, Cindy shares many current day testimonies of Jesus that give evidence of this truth!

Surrender is a battle term. It implies giving up all rights to the conqueror. When we surrender to God, we give up control – our plans, our will – and allow Him to lead, to guide, to direct our paths. The amazing news about our victor, is that He conquers us to bless us! Commit everything to the Lord. Trust him, and he will help you! (Psalm 37:5)

In life, we reap what we sow. There are natural and spiritual consequences to all that we think, say, and do. We determine which seeds impact our future, and which do not. In this teaching, Cindy teaches biblical ways to cooperate with the law of sowing and reaping in order to abide in the abundant life that Jesus came to give us!

Faith looks at a promise from God the same way a farmer looks at a seed. The farmer sees a future harvest. Faith sees God’s will fully accomplished. Vision isn’t seeing with your eyes; it’s seeing with your heart! In this teaching, Cindy shares practical ways to sow powerful vision seeds into your future.

Every seed is created to reproduce according to its kind. In each seed exists the potential for super abundance. Every seed carries its potential future within it. However, the future of the seeds can only be unlocked if the seeds are planted. Everything that we are right now is a harvest of seeds that have been sown into our past. And the seeds that we are sowing today will be harvested in our future. Our thoughts are seeds. Our words are seeds. And our actions are seeds. The all-important question is: are you sowing seeds of God, His promises, and truth into your life—or seeds of the world’s ever-changing facts and opinions? You will reap what you sow!

Over the past two weeks, we have gone to the Bible to see how healing was administered through Jesus and His disciples. Since Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever, it follows that healing can be administered in the same way today as it was during Jesus’ ministry on this earth! Jesus spoke these words, 7 And as you go, preach, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’ 8 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give. (Matthew 10:7-8)

Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Healing can be received today in the same way that it was received during Jesus’ ministry on this earth! And, we see the disciples of Christ carrying on Jesus’ mission after He ascended into heaven. We too, are called to advance God’s Kingdom … not just with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power!

The rest of God is a heart-level assurance that what Jesus accomplished is more than enough! Today we took a look at our “promised land”, should we choose to believe, enter in, and take possession of it: God’s tender mercy, His extravagant grace, and His favor—His demonstrated delight in us as His children.

Hebrews 3:19 says, 19 So we see that they were not able to enter [into His rest—the promised land] because of unbelief and an unwillingness to trust in God. In this teaching, we talked about “natural unbelief”, which comes from natural information in your life that is contrary to God’s Word. (i.e. pain, negative reports, problems)

Unbelief is fed when we focus our attention on the negative circumstances in our life. The danger is that faith can be cancelled out by unbelief. Unbelief must be fed and nourished in order for it to thrive. Cindy shares ways to separate yourself from the negative, and stop feeding unbelief—and conversely, how to feed your faith instead.

11 Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest … (Hebrews 9:11a) What this apparent paradox means is that we are to trust God completely—dependent and in complete submission to Him—THAT is where we are to put forth our efforts! The rest of God is a heart-level assurance that what Jesus accomplished is more than enough! In this message, Cindy shares the importance of transforming our thinking to agree with God through meditating on the living Word of God. 7 For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. (Proverbs 23:7a)

9 So we conclude that there is still a full and complete “rest” waiting for believers to experience. (Hebrews 4:9) This rest of God is not a rest from work—it’s a rest in His finished work. In this teaching, Cindy shares that an important key in entering that faith-rest-life is to enter into a passionate and fervent relationship with God, our Father, and to receive His unconditional love.
