From the Pastor's Desk

“Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they are the rejoicing of my heart." ◄ Psalm 119:111

Congratulations and welcome to another brand-new week!
Last week, we began a teaching series titled: Unlocking the Supernatural, and in Part 1, we established that the supernatural is our heritage in Christ, unlocked through the power of the Word. Continuing with the series, I'd begin by saying that our supernatural experience begins with how we see ourselves (Prov. 23:7). Just as Jesus came as a sign, every child of God is born a sign and wonder (Isa. 7:14; 8:18). We are spirit beings born of the Spirit (John 3:6), heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ (Rom. 8:17), delivered from darkness into His Kingdom, with Satan's power subdued under our feet (Col. 1:13/Rom. 16:20). Our identity must change before our experience can change!

Another powerful key to unlocking the supernatural is the power of testimonies. Testimonies are not merely accounts of what God did yesterday; they are spiritual arrows of triumph and seeds with the capacity to reproduce after their kind (Rev. 12:11/ Matt. 7:16-20). They are prophetic pointers to our inheritance in Christ (Rev. 19:10). In 1 Sam. 17:37-50, David confronted Goliath with the testimony of past victories and brought down the giant. In Matt. 9:20-22/14:35-36, the woman with the issue of blood became a testimony of healing that inspired others to reach out in faith. Truly, testimonies strengthen our faith and empower us to overcome life's challenges.

As you embrace the testimonies of God's mighty acts and dare to take the same steps of faith, I pray that every testimony you have heard become your own experience. May the God who did it before repeat His mighty acts in your life, and may every mountain before you become a stepping stone to your next testimony. This week, receive fresh grace to prevail, overcome and manifest your supernatural heritage in Christ. What defeated others shall become your stepping stone to victory, in Jesus' name!

Your triumph is guaranteed in Christ!
