The Power of Living Under Authority
by Pastor Mark Gilmore of Falls Baptist Church (Jul 28 2010)
Pastor Gilmore delivers a challenge to fight back against the cultural conditioning that God is not doing much today in our world. The truth of the matter is, there are great moves of God taking place all over our world right now. We should not have a defeated attitude, remember - Satan is the defeated foe. On the heels of this challenge he taught the principle of authority. We are empowered by God, the source of all authority, when we choose to operate under that authority. This is not something we should seek to shed or live independent of, but rather embrace and experience the power and protection God meant for our lives and ministries to prosper.
God is Love

Series: Knowing and Doing the Will of God
Many believers have failed to comprehend and carry out the will of God because they have fallen prey to one of Satan's oldest lies concerning the love of God. We have come to believe that God's love is conditional, and we are well aware of our personal failures, so we conclude that God is upset with us and no longer loves us. Rather than seeking to serve Him out of a heart of love, we avoid Him, or spend our lives trying to win back His approval by wearying ourselves in the fruitless activities of our own works. Oh, that we would grasp the truth that God is love and will always do what's best for me.
Knowing God By Name

Series: Knowing and Doing the Will of God
How well do you know God? This is a very pertinent question to consider. Many of us know many things about God, but when it comes to experiencing God at work in our lives, we have little to speak of. God initiates situations and circumstances in our lives as opportunities to get to know Him experientially. These experiences reveal to us His character and His nature. We can walk away from these circumstances praising God, not only for the deliverance He gave, but also for the personal experience of knowing God by name.
