Pastor Greg, I am blessed by all your sermons! This is the type of preaching I grew up with and I have missed it so much! Thank you and God bless you. The second this is a question. I wonder if you could tell me where you got the green NLT Bible that you use. I like the flexible covers that stay open when you hold it in one hand. I have looked in Christian Bookstores, regular bookstores and on-line wwith no success. I would appreciate your help. Blessings, KC

Luz Aguirre learn Gods Word, go to a scholar Shepherds Chapel bible Studies, GEn, to Rev, ever word taught, ✝️I have Studies 20 years

I had 2 total strangers in 2 seperate places say the same thing to me. A message straight from Jesus. The first lady was uncomfortable & had never done this before (give a message) & said she almost didn't. She said that Jesus wants me to turn back to Him. A couple of weeks later, a different woman out the blue in our conversation said the same. Neither of them could possibly know that I was in a crossroads in my life. I chose the wrong direction unfortunately but I still think about it every day. If I had listened to Jesus then I know my life would have turned out very different. It took bringing me to minutes of death to finally turn back to Jesus. The only reason I'm alive is because God allowed me to live. Even the drs were positive I was going to die during surgery. I'm still very much a work in progress, but I know I'm His.

@@michaelreynolds9332 Thank you. God has been telling me the same thing lately. I have severe pain & sometimes it really affects how articulate I am so it can be difficult to put it as simple & straightforward. Please pray that God will help me in that way. Jesus is so amazing. I would have given up on me a long time ago, but He never did. All praise honor & glory to our great God.

Many years ago (I speak the truth) God spoke to me audibly, he said 'I love you' I could decern it was from the supernatural realm, coming through to my right ear. I was watching oral Roberts and he was giving a testimony of how he was sitting in a meeting in a church, every other voice was blanked out, and God started to talk to him audibly. After I had finished watching this I was on my way to bed contemplating if God would ever do that for me. I was like no he wouldn't do that for me then I would say in my mind but would he? This went back and forth until I started to get sleepy. Then I just layed there thinking about it and I started to fall asleep then....God blessed me and alowed me to hear his voice. He spoke to me with an audible voice. I still remember the tone he used, it was a voice of a man And it was loving. He said 'I love you' I lay there for a couple of minutes thinking woooo he just spoke to me. I was in shock because i didn't expect it. So then I got excited. My mum was living with us at that time and I ran to her room and told her what had happened. She told me that God doesn't do that very often so this is very special. I have never forgotten this, and the day, date and time this happened are written in my favourite bible. Another time 4 years ago I was reading the word and spending time with Jesus and I had a song on that was about how much God wants us and loves us (I forget the song) and I said while i was crying just feeling touched by his presence, and I said to Jesus'you want me? Me? and he spoke very loud in my spirit and said 'Yes you' his exact words. But the thing is out of those 2 words he spoke to me I got soooo much. That he wasn't going to change his mind, he has chosen me and no one could separate me from him nore his love, it's set in steal, never ever will he change his mind etc. I was very blessed by this also. He spoke with authority but in a loving way. I will never forget that time I had with him. When I spend time with him I am blessed to feel his tangible presence not every time but sometimes (the just shall live by faith and not by sight) and we are not to go by feelings. But Jesus blesses me from time to time with his tangible presence. So he does still talk audabily today. He is the same yesterday today and forever The bible backs up my experience in 1 Samuel 3 Verses 1-10. You can read further down and see what the Lord said to Samuel, but in my experience God told me audibly that he loved me. God bless all of you!!!

God did something a bit different in my life. When I was a toddler, I was outside with my mom as she was pruning plants. She told me that I picked up a live branch and a dead one, and said, “One will be taken and the other left.” Later on when I was 4 years old, I was playing in my little swimming pool in our yard when a bird flew to me. In my mind, I thought it would be a good idea to give the bird a bath. I picked up the bird and held him under the water. Of course, the bird died, and I was very upset. My mom took the bird and put it in a shoebox so we could bury it, but I decided to pray. I bowed my head and said, “God, please heal my bird.” At that very moment, the bird revived and flew out the window. My mom and my older brother were there to witness it. What’s remarkable about this is that my parents were members of a church that didn’t ever pray for healings. It had to be God who put the idea to pray in my head. Because of these early encounters, I have never doubted God’s existence or His love for me.

This is the will of god. That you believe in the one he sent.

Tip TVT The Devil will never be able to tell you that God isn’t real and you believe it. He can though and is very good at saying “wait, you don’t have to do that right now”. He has gotten me with that one for years at a time. My recommendation is that when you feel/hear his whisper say “in the name of Jesus Devil be gone” and begin to pray asking God to strengthen you. Remember where the light shines the darkness runs, get running Darkness!!!

Check out Andrew Farley and Ralph Yankee Arnold. You need to listen to Grace teachers who are absolutely grace through faith with no twisting anything around. Greg twist some things . I know it may sound innocent but when he says repent of sins and recommit your life to Jesus and ask him to come back into your life but that stuff isn't biblical. Hearing That stuff can make you feel like you can slip away from God or fo something that will make him turn his back. Jesus says If any man comes to me I will never cast him out and that no man or created thing can snatch you from my hand and Jesus saves to the utter most and Jesus shed his blood and died for you and rose 3 days later. Jesus says if you believe he did it for you then you are saved and he will never lose you. God is holding onto us we are not holding on to him. Even when we are faithless he remains absolutley faithful. When you feel the devil throwing those fiery darts don't even acknowledge him. You just focus on these truths that are promises from God. These promises bring peace and comfort for those that believe God.

Michael Warrell You do realize the difference between the Pastor saying “recommit” and if he were to say “ask Jesus to be your Savior again”, right? You’re actually the one twisting the Pastors words. While your not wrong your not correct in what your implying. Recommit requires work on my part, as I stumble and get back up. Recommit my focus, recommit is a me thing. Asking the Jesus to be my Savior is, as you pointed out a One and Done thing. That’s a big difference my brother. I know your trying to be helpful but it only makes people question what doesn’t need to be questioned. There is a enough doubt out there already.

@@Captain-Awesome doubt ? I'm stating what it is that causes doubt. The key word here is when pastors tell people to "ASK". Ask Jesus to be your savior or ask Jesus into your heart isn't biblically correct. It can leave people doubting snf wandering did it work . Did Jesus come into my heart ? In the Bible it says believe Jesus is Lord and died and rose from the dead and that he did it for you. It doesn't say to ask Jesus into your heart. Its Same as asking Jesus back into your life when you recommit. You recommit with faith by believing the promises God made cuz his will is for us to believe on the son. Asking could leave a person wandering if Jesus responded. Truth is he never left. What these pastors tell people puts a lot of stress and anxiety on people. These kind of teachings lead to lord ship salvation and believing you have to be perfect or Endure in the faith or you'll lose salvation. Jesus says my yoke is easy and I will never leave you nor cast you out. All I'm simply saying is to believe the promises God has made. Stand on them. Not ask him for something he has already delivered . Believe. Jesus would agree with what I'm saying because it's called putting on the armor of Christ . And besides I was replying to the other guy saying he feels like the devil is coming for him . And if he ever had doubts to stand on the promises of God not to ask God but to believe God because you see........ When you think God is mad at you or has disowned you it's impossible to be committed to him. First you believe that he is still holding onto you and always will and when you know God still calls you his child it's way easier to commit to him with boldness and confidence. We love him because he first loved us. In order to be committed to God you've got to understand God is always committed to you even when your comittment wavers and it will waver.

The will of God is written in His word. Anything outside of that is man's will.

My Lord Jesus Christ is my BEST FRIEND. I don't think there is such thing as a true friend in the world. Thank you God for Jesus Christ that you know everything about me and I can talk to you about everything.

I turn phone on and listen while sewing masks to give away. Life changing messages.

When I was young I worked at a fast food joint, we used kale to decorate the salad bar, I’d never heard of anyone eating it until a few years ago

I've been a Born again Holy Spirit Filled Christian 4, 33 yrs.and learned That I might sin in some way everyday.I need 2 ask 4 forgiveness If I have sinned in anyway against God Or Man.

Awwsome video....sooo tru....the only reason we feel to our selves sin is better it's because our desires of the flesh wants to do wrong....it cannot please god it is the state we merged to when man rebelled against god....it is outside the will of God....but he made a way to gain bk or be redeemed on to him....we will be eternally happy and live to gether with him...we dont see right now we are out of bounds but we have to acknowledge our status and get right with god

Thank you for making scripture understandable.

Great teaching today! As Christians we know a lot of these teachings but we need to practice what we learn. Thanks pastor Greg!!!🙏♥️👍

Thanks Greg Laurie, so thankful for you over the years.

The Lord revealed himself to me on the 19th, and I'm still in prayer to him about it. This might not sound like much, but for me, I'm riding on a HIGH I've never known before. No, not even when I was Born Again back in, 1983. I don't know what, or why, but Jesus has had me in tears over this for the past 3 days now, and there's no end in site. Even now, as I type this out my Savior is dining with me on the fact that I'm his, and he's mine!!! 😍😍😍 I guess he's answered my life long prayer of understanding him --- then again, I'm just guessing. I'm truly MESMORIZED, and I can't stop PRAISING, Jesus Christ, 😅😅😅!!! Never before have I raised my hands reaching for him, but I can't stop!!! The pure JOY I feel inside my chest is almost so great that I'm getting twinges of guilt. I did not deserve this. Why is our Savior bestowing this HAPPINESS upon me? The more I PRAISE him for it, the more I feel it, 🥳!!! It's as though I'm under the influence of a happy drug, and I can't keep quiet about it. I'm 58, and as I said, I'm reduced to tears -- behind my ears is an almost agony from smiling & laughing when I'm not blubbering about it. I LOVE YOU, Jesus Christ, and I beg you, PLEASE don't ever take this from me. Why anyone would not want what the Prince of Peace has given me, I'll never understand it - my Gratitude -- it's PATHETIC compared to what he's Blessed me with. I PRAISE your Holy name, Jesus, FOREVER!!! AMEN Back to my prayers, 😍!!!

This scripture answered the entire "class" smh Isaiah 8:16 King James Version (KJV) 16 Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples. Israel is sealed with the laws. Just wanted to answer his question without taking an hour.

If anyone chooses to do Gods will he will find out whether Jesus teachings come from God or whether he spoke on his own. Ask the Father if his teachings were spoken through Jesus and if anyone hears and believes has eternal life.

I believe in the will of god. I believe he has a plan for me. What it is? Idk, but i do know he has a plan. After my brain surgery in 1994 i hooked up all kinds tubes and ma was bout leave thats when our old pastor said to my ma.

In acts 21:38 Paul was mistaken for an Egyptian and he was from the Tarsus region (only a stone's throw from Israel) so taking this into consideration Jesus was most likely not white and was more likely to be a brass colour as Rev indicates not bronze or anything lighter than brass (unlikely) . But the question is can you still love Jesus if you found out he was black or brown instead of typical cesare borgia depictions & vise versa . The truth is Jesus is not bound to any dialect or colour he is God and he represents all nations . But I will still love Jesus if I found out he was black, white or brown or all three at once .

REV. 13:9-10 y'all read that! oh he has a MASTER PLAN ALRIGHT!!!

Hmm whats his agenda hmm

I'm disabled. I don't have power of attorney over finances. I ask permission of my parents at 47 years old. So no I don't need to discover the will of God on anything besides preaching. It's simple to know who to marry and you don't need to pray to know or read it in the Bible. Listen to the power of the holy spirit in you. When the spirit get quenched or grieved run. If it gets edified and you desire them marry. A narcissistic man or woman will inspire you to quench the spirit this is not a garentee you won't get divorced. Two believers but one doesn't care that God hates divorce and they want to give up will give up.

easy as 123,just follow your heart.

I do know the Will of GOD...no one will suit out and show up i.e. John 3:21!!!! No one will listen to me. I will not date or marry at this time. Need to take care of myself and prepare to WORK! Simple. FG is supposed to work with me BUT! If he can't...I continue on..
