All Authority Means All Authority

All Authority Means All Authority.
Jesus' Authority: In Matthew 28:18, Jesus declares that all power in heaven and earth has been given to him. This authority is rooted in his divine nature, as highlighted in John 1:3, which states that all things were made through him, affirming Jesus as the Creator.
Connection to Genesis: The narrative ties Jesus to Genesis 1, where God creates the heavens and the earth. Jesus is presented as the visible manifestation of the invisible God, fulfilling the divine plan. Genesis 1:28 shows humanity's original mandate to oversee creation, which Jesus reaffirms in his Great Commission.
The Great Commission: Jesus delegates responsibility to his disciples in Matthew 28:19-20, instructing them to make disciples of all nations, baptize them, and teach them to obey his commands. This mirrors the original charge to Adam and Eve to be fruitful and have dominion over the earth.
Redemption and New Creation: Jesus, as the "last Adam," redeems humanity from the failure of the first Adam (Genesis 3). Through his sacrifice, he enables humanity to be "born again" and participate in the new creation, extending God's kingdom on earth and in heaven.
Generational Mission: The disciples' faithfulness to this mission has led to a generational transfer of godliness, spreading the gospel globally for over 2,000 years. This mission unites all people, as Acts 17:26 reminds us that all nations are made of one blood.
The overarching message is that Jesus' authority, creation, and redemption empower believers to fulfill their divine assignment, living for God and advancing his kingdom.

The Excuseless Dimension

The Excuseless Dimension.
This is an excuseless season when Christians move beyond "doing" and focus on "producing"—not just in material terms, but in eternal, Kingdom-centered ways. Become a disciple who not only follows Christ but also disciples others. We have Bibles, phones, social media, and Zoom, so we have no excuse not to use our gifts, voices, and influence to make an eternal impact. We can pray, share the Gospel, and disciple new believers.
Don't you want to leave something here other than natural things when you're not around? I'm not talking about your biological family members and children and that kind of thing. I'm talking about people whose lives you impacted who not only got saved but were discipled into ministry.
Amazing evangelism and crowd baptisms have started occurring among college students, and these people will need committed Christians to love them and teach them how to be a disciple. Jesus' disciples were disciplined, obedient, and ready when Jesus called them. After His resurrection, they were in the right place, both physically and spiritually, to fulfill divine assignments. People worship God to the degree that they see God. "Then the eleven disciples left for Galilee, going to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him—but some of them doubted!" (Matthew 28:16-17 NLT).
Christians need the same disciplines today as they did in Jesus’ day so don’t become irrelevant and lose the world.
• Where are you in the Word?
• How often are you in the Word?
• How much Word do you put into you daily?
• Where are you in prayer?
• Where are you in your giving?
• Do you honor leadership? Submission brings you under the destiny of God.
Be intentional —not for what you can get but for what you can give away. Acts 20:35 NLT says, "You should remember the words of the Lord Jesus: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.'"
The spiritual health of the world depends on you. Can you be trusted to carry out assignments? Will you seek fellowship with other strong disciples to sharpen your faith?
We don’t need excuses. We are the disciples, the disciplined ones. We can step into our God-given destiny and ignite change. We are a catalyst for revival and transformation.
Isaiah 58; 61. Matthew 28:16-20. Acts 20:35. Galatians 5:22-24.

John Jasper, Slave Preacher

John Jasper, Slave Preacher. Whites in Richmond, Virginia, loved this slave preacher even when he preached funerals where he refused to eulogize sinners and send them to heaven. The Rev. John Jasper was a famous Black preacher who had such power over the fear of death that his reputation for great preaching began when he was converted at age 25, while still a slave. When Emancipation came, he was 50 years old, and from then until his death at 89 he was the most popular preacher in Richmond. He was best known for a message called “De Sun Do Move.” --Bishop Wellington Boone

Consecrated to Be One Together

Consecrated to Be One Together. Unity, faith, and spiritual dedication allow believers to rise above divisions, fear, and the distractions of the flesh in the power of consecration to God. You are made to exist forever. True freedom and value come not from worldly riches or recognition but from aligning with God's eternal purpose and expressing the character of Christlikeness.Prayer, fasting, and seeking God's presence empower us to prioritize the eternal over the temporal, to embody the fruits of the Spirit, and to reject the divisive forces of the world. The unity of believers, as demonstrated at Pentecost, is the ultimate manifestation of the Holy Spirit's presence—a call to end racial and cultural divisions within the church and to walk as one family in Christ.This consecration is not only about personal transformation but also about becoming vessels of God's love and unity, representing His kingdom on earth. Consecration challenges us to act with the character of Christ, even in the face of suffering, and to declare boldly that the church is one—united in purpose, love, and mission for time and eternity. Together, we are consecrated to reflect heaven's reality and bring hope to the world.Matthew 5:43-48. Galatians 5:16-24. Revelation 3:14-18.

Consecrate Your Whole Life to God

Consecrate Your Whole Life to God.
You are the gold standard now. That means there’s nothing you can’t achieve when you set your heart and mind to it—especially when God is your priority. With Him at the center, greatness is inevitable. Yes, there are challenges—forces of darkness that try to stand in the way. But remember, the real battle isn’t just in the natural world; it’s a spiritual fight. And in that fight, you’re never alone. Even Peter sought clarity, asking, “What’s the bottom line?”
The answer is powerful: when you commit your life to God, you’re not signing up for failure. Quite the opposite—you’re stepping into a life of abundance, purpose, and joy. The rewards of dedication to God aren’t just reserved for heaven. There’s so much goodness waiting for you here and now.
Trust in Him, and watch as your life transforms in ways you never imagined.
Matthew 19:27. 1 Corinthians 3:12-13. 2 Corinthians 10:3-4.

Consecration, Purpose, and the Power of God

Consecration, Purpose, and the Power of God. You are not created for mediocrity—God doesn’t make average. You are designed with divine purpose, equipped with unique gifts to impact the world in extraordinary ways. You may not be one of the fivefold ministry in Ephesians 4:11, but even through leadership, administration, or giving to the cause of Christ your calling is sacred and your potential is unlimited when you consecrate yourself to God.
King David’s unparalleled giving in 1 Chronicles 29 demonstrates greatness that comes from a life dedicated to eternal purposes. The treasures of this world are fleeting, but what is offered to God is everlasting. When you give your all to God, He is not neutral—He moves powerfully in your life, elevating you to levels you may not understand and appreciate until the next world.
Stand firm on the Word, seek wisdom from those who are living it, and embrace the truth that you are "top shelf" in God’s eyes. The fire of life will test your works, but those works you build on the foundation of faith and consecration will endure. Yield to the greatness God has placed within you and allow His power to work in you and through you to transform your life and the lives of others. Help the nations and glorify Jesus’ name. You are too amazing to settle for anything less than the extraordinary purpose God has for you.
1 Chronicles 29:5. Matthew 19:12; 24:35. Romans 12:5-8. 1 Corinthians 3:10-15. 1 Peter 1:25. 2 Peter 3:10.
Consecrate means to declare something as sacred, dedicated to divine purpose, and solemnly set aside for sacred service or goals.

Giving as an Act of Consecration

Giving to God as an Act of Consecration. God did not allow David to build a temple for him, but He did allow him to raise money for his son Solomon to build it. David considered the responsibility of giving billions of his wealth and challenging others to give as an act of obedience to God that was a result of his consecration. 1 Chronicles 29:5 (NKJV) concludes his appeal: “the gold for things of gold and the silver for things of silver, and for all kinds of work to be done by the hands of craftsmen. Who then is willing to consecrate himself this day to the Lord?”
One of my spiritual sons was a leader in a church in Washington, DC, founded by businessmen who decided to shut it down after pressure from their business contacts. I believe that they could have quietly funded someone else to continue the church as an act of consecration so that a spiritual son of the ministry could continue to fill the vital need of reaching leaders in our nation’s capital. This would have been their sacrificial act of consecration.
Do you demonstrate the level of your consecration by giving sacrificially out of obedience to God? David is our example. He knew he would not be alive to see the temple that Solomon was to build, but he gave billions in today’s terms so that his son could fulfill the vision and called others alongside to give, as well. “Who then is willing to consecrate himself this day to the Lord?
1 Chronicles 29:5. Isaiah 10:27. Acts 13:22. 2 Corinthians 3:18. 1 Timothy 6:10.

God Wants to Birth Something in You

God Wants to Birth Something in You. God did not create you for barrenness. He created you to birth something extraordinary that no one else could receive. Defy barrenness. Do not allow the prophecies of strangers to define you. Don’t let your circumstances determine your future Find your purpose through your faith and praise. Draw closer to God, fast to break every yoke, and feed your spirit with divine revelation from the Word. Let go of the past, embrace the new name and destiny God has for you, and trust in His plan for your life. Whether in marriage, ministry, or personal growth, God is forming you into a conqueror, a champion of faith, and a blessing to the world. Praise God in advance, for your breakthrough is coming.
