How can two walk together unless they agree? How can we walk with Jesus unless we agree with and obey His word? We must learn to obey God's word to be in harmony with God. What we do expresses more about our beliefs than what we say.

It is crucial that we guard our heart. The Bible is clear that the issues of life flow from our heart. What we feed our hearts will eventually flow out of our mouths and our actions.

1 Corinthians 11 talks about there is no spiritual difference between male and female in the Kingdom of God. It clarifies that both male and female can pray and prophesy but must be under authority.

Pastor Terry Hancock's prophetic message for The Lighthouse. 2017 will be an exciting time at The Lighthouse!

In the Gospel of John, Jesus explains that He and The Father are one. All authority has been given to Jesus. He then explains that the same power that resides in Jesus resides in the one who believes in Jesus. Whatever we ask in the name of Jesus shall be done. What are we asking for?

When we truly believe God's Word, we can praise Him in all situations. We have faith in His promises and power. It is in that assurance we can praise Him with our every breath. It is when we do not praise that we are defeated. In and through all things, let us praise Him.

Jesus said in Mark 2, "the Sabbath was made to benefit people, and not people to benefit the Sabbath". We spend precious time debating whether or not the Sabbath is a particular day of the week. Rather, we should observe a Sabbath day of rest and reflection of what God has done.

The Hebrews witnessed the cloud by day and pillar of fire by night. They ate the same manna and saw God part the Red Sea. Yet, some murmured and complained. Because of their unbelief, most did not enter the promised land. God makes a way for us in the same way. We hear and read His Word. We see His goodness and yet we do not believe He will provide. God is faithful and we must believe.

It would serve us well to always be mindful of God's blessings and protection. We tend to forget and take things for granted until we hit hard times. We should thank God daily for our blessings.

The spirit of anti-Christ targets the body of Christ and the ones it can deceive. Those who make themselves prime targets are those who are not committed to a local church body, who do obey God's Word and who harden their hearts to His Word.
