Jeremy Johnson - Born for Greatness: Wisdom
In this week's sermon, Pastor Jeremy Johnson shares on the meaning and purpose of wisdom. What is it? How do we get it? How do we live it out? How does it impact our decisions? Humbling yourself before the Lord is the beginning of growing wiser. God takes untrained, unschooled, ordinary men and women, fills them with wisdom and brings them before kings. Wisdom is given within, each person gaining more of it as they walk with God, it's knowledge lived out, one decision at a time. God wants to increase our wisdom to be so influential that we impact nations reminding them of the love of God. Go obediently into your daily life, putting God first, exchange your distrust for trust and walk out the wisdom given unto you. It is not about gaining more knowledge for the sake of having knowledge. We need to live out the knowledge that we have. New wisdom is walking in old knowledge. We were placed by God, strategically in this moment of time, for such a time as this. He wants us to use our faith to live an impactful, supernatural life. Jer 29:11 ESV 2 Chronicles 9:5 NIV 2 Chronicles 9:22 NIV Ps 51:6 NIV Proverbs 9:10 NIV

Jeremy Johnson - Adulting: 7th Hour
This week of Pastor Jeremy’s “Adulting” series focuses on an important part of our walk with God, the in between. The journey, the road still being traveled on as we move through the seasons of life. But just as the Roman official came to a moment in his life where he humbled himself before God to ask for healing for his son and went on his way taking God at his word that his son was healed. So must we, remain vigilant in trusting the word God gave us about our own lives. What happens when we’re in the midnight section of the in between? When that word is hard to hold strong too? Or when the voices in your head make you question what you once heard so clearly? It is here that God searches your heart for rocks, things that may be blocking the seeds He wants to plant in the good soil of your heart. Listen in on how to find God’s strength in the in between and know that God will bring what HE said to pass, especially in the seventh hour.

Christy Johnson - Adulting - Say So
On this week's podcast, Pastor Christy Johnson, Mother of the House, dives deeper on this sermon series “Adulting”. 1 Corinthians 13:11 ESV says “When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways.” This week, we got to dissect the truth on childlike speech. Through this podcast, we find out that childlike speech not only effects others but can effect yourself and how you speak to yourself. Have you ever had childlike speech with yourself? Or even others? “Crucify your complaints and guard your gratitude.” Sometimes, our complaints overshadow the blessings that we have been praying for. To combat it, guard your gratitude and allow yourself to have a perspective shift. In this life-giving message, we hope this matures your speaking and aids you along the path of adult speaking and maturity in the kingdom.

Jeremy Johnson - Adulting - When God’s Asleep
Have you ever felt like God seemed distant? Have you ever felt like He doesn’t hear you? Or maybe you felt like He was asleep when you were in a crisis? In this message, Ps. Jeremy Johnson, Lead Pastor of Fearless LA, unpacks the idea that even in the midst of the greatest storm, God is with you and has never left. The disciples learned this lesson when they went out to sea in the midst of a storm while Jesus rested on the boat. We sometimes forget that Jesus is still with us because the storms of life are crashing into our boat, causing it to flood. But Jesus is still there. He may be silent, but He is never absent. You may be going through a storm and think you are going to sink. But, fear not! Jesus is there with you, and if He is so calm that He can sleep through a storm, why should you fear? Scripture References: 1 Corinthians 13:11 (ASV) Mark 4:35-41 (NLT) Matthew 8:23-27 (NLT)

Jeremy Johnson - Adulting: In My Feels
Ever made a decision based on how you felt? In this week's latest addition to the Adulting series, “In my Feelings”, Pastor Jeremy Johnson preaches on the connection between our emotions, the flesh and the spirit within. God doesn’t just bring the dead to life, when you receive Jesus, his spirit then lives within you in exchange for your sin. But no life grows without challenges and in those pits it’s easy to let our emotions take over. Emotions are inherently fickle, changing from one moment to the next. If we wait till we “feel” like following Jesus, how might we be delaying the God call on our lives? Why make life changing decisions based on fickle feelings? God is with you always! Inside the body lies the spirit, a direct connection to God at all times. Getting into relationship with Jesus allows this spirit to mature and become in control of our emotions. Our decision to trust in Gods truth through the living word give us guidance through our spirit to live out our purpose. Develop a relationship with God and watch your spirit take hold of unruly emotions bringing forth a bounty of blessings! Scripture References: 1 Corinthians 13:11 (ASV) Romans 8:5-9 ESV Hebrews 4:12 (NIV)

Jeremy Johnson - Adulting: childISH vs. childLIKE
Growing up in our physical body is tough; we out grow our clothes, we out grow our beds and at the same time we might assume that our spirit grows with that. But just as a child has to eat the food off their parent’s plates before they can prepare their own, we also need to feed our spirit in growing in relationship with God. Feeding that hunger in the spirit as you go through the growth spurts along the way. In this second sermon of the series, Pastor Jeremy walks us through the "growing pains" of maturing in our spirit and shares how adulthood isn't a result of time but is rather a decision to mature in our spirit. When we were children, we thought like children and it was right for that season. But, as you grow you must shed childish things and let God show you what it means to ADULT in your speech, feelings and thoughts. What could be possible for you and I if we found ourselves more and more in the presence of God? What could we learn and change in our life if we sought first the kingdom and acted with LOVE? Adulting in our spirit leads to more decisions made in love, bettering our thoughts, our actions and exchanging childish ways for gifts found in the presence of God. Hear how God can transform your life and take you from glory to glory while we grow into spiritual giants. 1 Corinthians 13:11 1 Corinthians 13:4

Jeremy Johnson - Adulting: Think Like an Adult
What comes to mind when you think of the word “adult?” Taxes? Children? Doctor’s appointments? Buying a house or a car? These are all things that we pair with becoming an adult in society. But, as we all know, God sees things differently. He has a different idea for how to “adult” in life, and Pastor Jeremy Johnson, Lead Pastor of Fearless LA, begins to break down this thought in a brand new series, named “Adulting.” In the first sermon of this new series, Pastor Jeremy breaks down what it means to “adult” in the Kingdom of God. Paul talks about how we must put away childish things as we grow and mature in Christ, beginning with our thoughts. Our minds are childish and immature by nature, and some people unfortunately never grow out of this way of thinking. But when we renew our mind daily, intaking what God has in store for us through His Word, our perspectives change and our thoughts become mature. This gives us the first steps we need to live an adult, Christian life. Scripture References: 1 Corinthians 13:11 Philippians 4:8 Romans 12:2 Ephesians 6:10

Jeremy Johnson - Royal - Surrounded
This Sunday, we had our very own Pastor Jeremy Johnson preach another fantastic message as part of our Royal series at Fearless LA! Everyone of us has missed the mark at some point or another. Thankfully, Christ's crucifixion gives us the redemption we long for. We no longer live for us, but it is Christ who resides within each one of us. There's a reason why the early followers of Jesus were called Christians (Little Christs). We are no longer just living for God under the law, but AS christ. As a result, our thinking has to be transformed. We are SURROUNDED by God's presence. A presence that cannot be compared to the earthly things around us - which provide a false identity. Earthly happiness is fleeting, but JOY through Christ is immeasurable. We often can become scared of showing people the real us. The fear, shame, and guilt that we tend to suppress. Jesus took these things to the cross but WE have to mentally train ourselves to remember this: We are no more sinners; we are saints. Indeed it can hurt when people don't like us or reject us as we mature in our faith. This only confirms the Christ in us! Wherever we go, we carry God's presence with us. Psalm 32 Galatians 2:20 NIV Cor 1:27 NIV 2 Cor 5:17 NIV Heb 12:1-2 NIV Zacharia 2:5 NIV Colossians 3:1-4

Jermey Johnson - Royal: Im Coming out of this but I’m Coming Out Head First
In this week's powerful message, Pastor Jeremy Johnson continues our series ROYAL. We must have our minds right before anything! Your mind determines the direction of your life, what you think about yourself matters. We have to believe before we can have the confidence to walk into our destiny. If you think you can, you’re right. If you think you can’t, you’re right. God does open doors. God also closes doors. Sometimes we can mix those up. We walk through open doors thinking it was God. We stop knocking at closed doors because we feel defeated, thinking it's an attack of the enemy. Be encouraged today knowing that He renews our minds and His mercies! This key will help us to unlock the doors that have been waiting for us to unlock them through His royal authority. Scripture References: Acts 12:1-24 (NIV) Proverbs 23:7 (NIV) Ephesians 3:20-21 (NKJV)

Dalisha Munton - Royalty - Confidence of a King
On this week’s podcast, we continue our series on Royalty. Our wonderful Children's Pastor, Dalisha Munton, shares a powerful message on the incredible authority and power we now have access; because we are royal. Through the sacrifice of the cross, Jesus gave us a new bloodline and royal identity. The old habits, mindsets, and behaviors passed down by ancestors can be replaced through Jesus perfect, healthy lineage. We no longer have to live in sin, bound by comparison, complacency or compromise. Instead we have the opportunity to live a truly royal life which displays confidence, humility and honor. This new royal life is anchored by confidence in Jesus; not by circumstances, possessions or our abilities. It cannot be shaken. It allows us to walk in humility instead of insecurity. We get to celebrate our gifts while recognizing whom our strength comes from, God. Royals create a life of honor by choosing humility in action. We choose to honor people even when they do no deserve it. This royal culture creates an atmosphere ready for miracles. Pastor Dalisha teaches us about the empowerment through Jesus to walk out this royal paradigm. We are encouraged to take back our worship and step into a life of full surrender to Jesus. Scripture References: 1 Peter 2:9 Matthew 29:18-20 1 Peter 1:5-6 Exodus 12:22 James 4:6 Mark 9:35 Proverbs 18:16

David Turner - Royal - Giving God The Pen Back
Every story has one thing in common: an author was involved in the writing process. Each book ever written was created by an author who simply had a story to tell. This is precisely how God treats us with our individual lives. God has amazing storylines and characters in mind for your life today, but how often is it that we try to take the pen away from Him? In our anxiety and fear, we hijack the writing process, thinking that we can write a better story then He can. In this special sermon, David Turner, Youth Pastor of Fearless LA, tackles this subject along with the idea that God is the ultimate authority in our lives. Because of this, God puts people in our lives as authorities to teach us how to serve under them. This allows us to humble ourselves and, in turn, be raised to a position of authority in our own right. Scripture References: Matthew 28:18-20 Matthew 5:14-16 Proverbs 23:7 2 Corinthians 10:5 Psalms 115:16

Christy Johnson - Royal - The Power in the Pressure
Did you know that when you’re going through trials, and feeling the weight of the world, the pressure you face has nothing to do with you? In this weeks amazing message from our very own Pastor Christy Johnson, we dive into how to let God do the “how” and the “when”; and instead get ourselves to focus on the “trust” and “surrender." God isn’t trying to prevent the pressure in our lives. He allows it for a reason, to reveal His all-surpassing power! If there’s no pressure, there’s no power. If it’s perfect, then we don’t require anything; hence we don’t need the power! The pressure points back to him. Take heart in knowing that God will not waste your pain!

Jeremy Johnson - Royal - Lizard or Lion
This Sunday we had another great message from Pastor Jeremy Johnson as part of our ongoing ‘Royal’ series. We are worthy and valuable. Romans 3:23 tells us “We have all sinned, and fall short of the glory of God.” Most of us tend to focus on the "sinned" part of this scripture, but we can also take a look at the “glory” part. God has given us a righteous standing through Christ Jesus. Jesus died AS our sins, not for them, and for the marks we sometimes miss in our Christian walk. God is trying to restore us to the status we had in the garden of Eden. This is to be the person each of us are called to be before the fall happened in the garden. God can restore our feelings and thoughts about ourselves that the enemy works hard to instill within us. It is impossible to hate ourselves yet, love God. Are you buying into an augmented reality that the enemy has lied to you about? John 8:32 tells us “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” If a prince for example, is put into a slum environment; does that change his royal status? Has the devil given you a name that makes you feel powerless? Or has something been spoken over your life that causes you to not see yourself the way God does? Scripture References: Romans 3:23-24 John 8:32 John 17:22 2 Corinthians 4:4-12 2 Corinthians 5:16 2 Corinthians 5:20

The enemy will try everything he can to attack your friendship with God by throwing lies at you in the form of names.

Christy Johnson - Royal - Called
This past Sunday we celebrated Mothers day at Fearless! Our very own Pastor Christy Johnson, joins us and shares a wonderful message on the power of knowing our royal identity. 1 Peter 2:9 tells us "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession." We are made in God's image. As such, we wield the powers, abilities, and unique callings God has granted to each one of us. In the book of Genesis, we see Laban whom tricks Jacob into servitude for 14 years. After Jacob serves the time, Laban seeks to bargain with Jacob, who cunningly chooses the weaker speckled and spotted livestock of the herd. Laban, fails to realize that Jacob has carved and placed a spotted stick in the watering hole that can influence the solid livestock into reproducing spotted and speckled offspring. Proberbs 23: 7 tell us "For as he thinks in his heart, so is he." What is your personal watering hole? Is there any pollution in the watering hole of your imagination thats fooling you into believing a false identity? It may be to irrigate and clean out the well; by replacing your thoughts with God's.

Jeremy Johnson - Royal - Success By Design
On this week’s podcast, we continue on with the life changing new series, Royal. Pastor Jeremy Johnson of Fearless LA shares the 5 questions that drive the actions and motives of all humanity. Who Am I? Where am I from? Why am I here? What can I do? Where am I going? Through scripture we see how God designed a unique purpose into the heart of each person. To reach our full potential, we have to return to our maker and His instruction manual, the bible. Delving into scripture we learn, "Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord ’s purpose that prevails." - Proverbs 19:21. The path to success is locked into how God designed us individually. The key to unlocking our destiny and achieving true success is found only when we are obedient to God's word. God is more committed to our success than we are. His word is full of promises He is waiting for us to hold Him to. He wants us to be filled with faith to move on them. Pastor Jeremy shares how God placed His logo on us by creating us in His image. This is a seal is a sign of His love and a guarantee of our success. He makes us successful for His name's sake. The fact that we bear His image and name means we have divine back-up when we step out in faith; or get into any trouble. God is waiting for us to be Fearless and step out into purpose. Scripture References: Jeremiah 29:11 NIV Proverbs 16:9 NIV Proverbs 19:21 NIV Hebrews 1:10-14 NIV Ephesians 2:3-10 NIV Genesis 1:27 NIV 1 Samuel 10:15-24 NIV

Jeremy Johnson - Realeza - Traje Terrestrial
Que es lo que en tu vida te esta afectando tu identidad en Dios? Hay experiencias en tu pasado que tal vez estén deteniéndote de reconocer que eres Realeza? Este Domingo pasado tuvimos un mensaje especial que se enfoco sobre la Realeza en nosotros. Cuando caminamos por esta vida, es inevitable que llegemos a situaciones, o con personas que debilitan nuestro imagen de si mismo como Dios nos a hecho. Hay veces que nos podemos frustrar, sintiendo como ciertas personas nos tratan, y lo que sucede en nuestra vida diaria. Estas son las razones por la que es importante que nos recordemos a si mismo de la realeza que hay en nosotros, y la relación especial que cada uno de nosotros tenemos con Dios. La palabra de Dios nos dice que Jesús fue, “ Despreciado y desechado entre los hombres, varón de dolores, experimentado en quebranto…”. Esto nos hace saber que en nuestro caminar, podemos estar seguros de que Jesús nos entiende, y él a caminado por las mismas luchas. El precio que Jesús pago por nosotros en la cruz solidifica nuestra posición de realeza en él. Escrituras de referencia: Salmos 139: 13-19 (NVI) Isaías 53: 2-3 (NVI) Génesis 1: 26-28 (NVI) Génesis 2: 6-7 (NVI)

What in your life is affecting your identity in christ? Has past experiences been holding you back from recognizing your royalty status? This past Sunday we had a special message focusing on royalty. As we go through life, we inevitably come across people and situations that seek to undermine our image of ourselves as God made us. At times we can become frustrated with how people treat us and what goes on in our daily lives. This makes it all the more important to remind ourselves of our royalty, and the special relationship each one of us has to God. The word tells us that Jesus was "despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering and familiar with pain." this lets us know that through our walk, we can be rest assured that he understands us as he's gone through the same struggles.The price Jesus paid for us on the cross, solidifies our royalty status in him. Scripture References: Psalm 139:13-19 (NIV) Isaiah 53:2-3 (NIV) Genesis 1:26-28 (NIV) Genesis 2:6-7 (NIV)

This Easter Sunday we are reminded that because of the ultimate sacrifice on the cross, we are made free and do not have to walk in bondage any longer. Jesus died a slaves death on the cross for us, and through that we have been redeemed. On the cross, Jesus didn’t make just the minimum payment, He paid it all. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. The cross sets us free but the empty tomb invites us into life and out of death. Whatever it is that you are walking through today, Jesus says, “it is finished.” Paid in full. You have been set free from everything that once held you captive.

On this week’s podcast, we continue on with the incredible new series, I Love My Church. Pastor Jeremy Johnson of Fearless LA demonstrates the importance of sowing seeds on good soil to produce fruit that remains. Through scripture we see that God does everything in our lives through the sowing of seeds. The soil unlocks the seed in our lives, however, if there are weeds in the soil, those will grow too. We see that good soil unlocks true potential in the seeds that we sow. What we reap depends on our hearts position. When we want fruit to remain in our lives, the only way to keep it is to create deep roots. The word says, “When we have a ready heart, the insights and understandings flow freely. But if there is no readiness, any trace of receptivity soon disappears.” - Matthew 13:12 MSG Pastor Jeremy teaches us that magnified and multiplied blessing is in the seed of the fruits in our lives. Fruit is for the present, seed is for sowing. We are encouraged through this podcast to bring our soil out of a temporary pot and get planted where we can grow and create deep roots in faith, family, and community.

On this week’s podcast special guest, Pastor Onterio Green, preaches an amazing word during the sermon, Detours to Destiny. Pastor Onterio reminds us in this message that we have been called and anointed for such a time as this. Like Joseph, God has a plan and calling on your life. He uses examples from Genesis 37: 1-11 NKJV to show different detours you may find yourself in. Purpose - One of the hardest things to comprehend once you find it. When we find purpose, we walk and talk differently. There will be people who don’t understand why you are different and they might try to bring you down. Pit - When you say yes to God, the spiritual warfare over your life becomes greater. Spiritual forces try to bring you down and even if you do everything right, you end up in a pit. Sometimes God will isolate you from people, so that you have to rely on him and not on others. He’ll take you from isolation to revelation to elevation. Potiphar’s House - Serving someone else’s dream will give you the ability to birth yours. Either you see yourself as a slave to someone else’s vision or a servant to someone else vision. Prison - We are tested under pressure. The key to unlock the prison door is all about integrity. When we have integrity, especially behind closed door, God allows breakthrough.

Jeremy Johnson - I Love My Church - Head, Shoulders, Knees & Toes
On this week’s podcast, we continue our new series by looking at the differences in the Body of Christ. Pastor Jeremy reminds us that God chose you to be a part of the Body because of your capacity, not because you are the same as everyone else. Jesus simply teaches us that the Body of Christ is just not one part. For the body to function healthily, every part must do its job. For we are all baptized by one Spirit into the body. We are not baptized to God as a different race, culture or social status but rather we are unified in Spirit. The Body is united in its differences. Disunity in the body results in death. We look at scripture and see 8 reasons we are called to function as 1 unit. 1 Corinthians 1:12-37 1. An attack on one part of the body is an attack on all parts of the body. 2. The differences in me do not exclude me, they make me indispensable. They make you valuable. 3. For the body to function healthily, every part must do their job, they must function. 4. A whole body full of one part is not the body (It’s a character on Monsters Inc.) 5. The body always covers itself by covering its parts and while covering, seeks to restore. 6. It’s God who puts the parts in their place and gives them their function. (So don’t ask tone the eye) 7. The heart working on being the eye, not only forfeits the power it has, but always falls short and effects the whole body. 8. Unity is not for organization only, it is for function in life.

Jeremy Johnson - I Love My Church - Breaker Anointing
On this week’s podcast we dive deeper into our new series, I Love My Church, and learn about what it means to have the Breaker Anointing. We also look at the difference between a consumer and covenant church and why it’s important to take ownership rather than just being an attender. To be a breaker you have to go first. You are a pioneer. To be a breaker you will have times of failure, mess-ups and a lot of the time it won’t make sense. There will be times you feel alone, but God will break you into a situation to break others out so that they can break through whatever it is holding them back. God has made what used to be difficult to live in, a place of praise. 13 “The breaker goes up before them (Break In); they break out (Break Out), pass through (Break Through) the gate and go out by it. So their king goes on before them, and the Lord at their head. Micah 2:13 NASB Doing life together as a church isn’t always the easiest thing. It is not like being a consumer at your favorite coffee shop, where you love it until they switch things up. Consumer church and relationships won’t do. To be the body and the bride there has to be covenant in our relationships. Covenant relationships seeks to give, not to get. Like a commitment to marriage, you stick through the good times and bad. A covenant is a choice, not a contractual relationship, it is something you fulfill.

Jeremy Johnson - I Love My Church - Guardians Are Back
As we continue this series, “I Love My Church,” we dive deeper into what the First Church looked like and how we are called to be a family through thick and thin. This week, pastor Jeremy also teaches us what it’s like to be a Guardian in God’s Kingdom. What is church? It’s a family with a Father, and it’s alive. In a family you’re going to have to get messy at times and roll up your sleeves and protect one another. At the center of what God loves, he rules the Church. Jesus is the head of the Church, and we are the body. When we start becoming the Church, we fall in love with it and with that, with that we might need to realign from time to time when times get hard. In this family, God’s going to ask you to remove certain things from your life but will always replace it with something better. He may ask you to put off bitterness and put on forgiveness. Leave pride behind and gain humility. We will be called to leave behind selfishness, disrespect and impatience and put on self-denial, honor for authority and patience. To be a Guardian is to be a 1) Defender 2) Protector 3) Keeper of God’s Fire “The fire must be kept burning on the altar continuously: it must not go out.” Leviticus 6:13 As Guardians, we are going to tend, defend, protect and keep the flame going as God brings new power and life though what we bring to the altar. We are called to be worshippers and warriors and we bring the fire with us through sacrifice.

Jeremy Johnson - I Love My Church
On this week’s podcast, we dive into a new series called, “I Love My Church”. After a life changing 3 days at Fear Not Conference, Pastor Jeremy Johnson preaches the importance of unity inside of the Church and how that alone can create a paradigm shift. We are reminded throughout this sermon that when you take ownership in the Church, you have authority. God wants to give us a key, and that authority creates major change. Even when things get messy, we can be comforted in the truth that Christ rules the Church. Though it may not make sense in the physical world, having Jesus at the center of it all creates 3 things: 1) Multiplication 2) Paradigm Shifts 3) Empowerment When we do things together as a Church we can feel God act, speak, heal, and move. Without it, we are only a piece of the body. Ephesians 1:20 20-23 “All this energy issues from Christ: God raised him from death and set him on a throne in deep heaven, in charge of running the universe, everything from galaxies to governments, no name and no power exempt from his rule. And not just for the time being, but forever. He is in charge of it all, has the final word on everything. At the center of all this, Christ rules the church. The church, you see, is not peripheral to the world; the world is peripheral to the church. The church is Christ’s body, in which he speaks and acts, by which he fills everything with his presence.” God is in charge of everything from galaxies to governments. It’s about time we start living in His authority over our lives and believe in the major change that can and will happen when we come together as one.

Jeremy Johnson - Fear Not: It's Not If We Are Going, It's Who We Are Bringing
On this week’s podcast, pastor Jeremy Johnson teaches us the importance of unity inside and outside of the church. During our very first Conference Sunday, we are reminded of the supernatural shifts that happen when we focus on going after the broken. Our own emptiness seems to fade away when we see the emptiness of others. When it comes to our salvation, pastor Jeremy challenges us to think of those in our lives that need to know Jesus. Like the story of Elisha and the Jar of Oil, there might be something in close quarters that just needs a little faith to transform. (2 Kings 4 :1-7) Rather than an empty jar, it could be a friend, family member or coworker that needs a touch from God. When we seek God as an empty vessel, His power and mercy for us overflows. As long as we bring Him our emptiness, Gods power will keep flowing and we will be transformed. With conference around the corner, it is times like these where we are asked not to stay silent but to step out in faith and invite those around us into the life we have already been given. It’s not if we’re going, but it’s who we are bringing that changes things.

Jeremy Johnson - Fear Not: Fan to Fanatic
On this week’s podcast, Pastor Jeremy Johnson preaches a powerful sermon about the specific call God has on each of our lives. This Super Bowl Sunday, we are reminded that when we walk out our calling, we should walk in expectancy and know that with Jesus, the battle is already won. Matthew 22:14 says, “For many are called, but few are chosen.” We are reminded through this message that although saying yes to Gods call isn’t always easy, it is always worth it. Gods plan is specific for you and your call cannot he rubbed off by fear, pain, shame, or insecurity. If God has called you, nothing can withdrawal you from it. Don’t wait another moment to follow what God has spoken over your life. You have been called to conquer and to keep moving forward. You have all the right equipment and the power of God on your side to live out His perfect plan in your life. The hurt you have walked through and may be holding onto might be the thing God uses to do the supernatural in your life. Are you ready to embrace the call that God has on your life this year?
