These notes are best when used in conjunction with the audio or video.   God often will deposit a passion or intense compassion for a situation before He uses a person in that area. People who are indifferent about something usually don’t move toward it.

I believe that each one of us individually should pray and receive from God the passion He wants to deposit into our hearts. When He fills us with that passion we should plan a way to release the kingdom of God to others and then ultimately, simply, get to work.


Faith
Faith is a huge factor in deciding to move forward. I’ve come to understand that there’s nothing God can’t do through a man or woman who’s in faith. I believe this because of what I read in the Bible.

I don’t think faith that Jesus CAN heal is such a problem for most of us. I think where we may disconnect from the manifestation of the healing is believing that he WILL heal for you because you’re standing in faith.

We have to decide, do we really, deep inside, believe what the Bible teaches the Christian about healing. I know some of the things there will stretch your natural thinking but, never the less, those scriptural realities exist.

1 Cor. 2:14
The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit.

When I was praying this week I saw a young man, around 10 years old battling Cancer. I again, began to feel what it must feel like to be the boys parents and compassion mixed with anger came over me. This should not be happening.

If we’re to make a change in situations like this one, we will have to believe for a miracle when others may not have the revelation that God heals.

Mark 5:22-34
22 Then one of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus, came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feet. 23 He pleaded earnestly with him, “My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.” 24 So Jesus went with him. A large crowd followed and pressed around him. 25 And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years. 26 She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse. 27 When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, 28 because she thought, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.” 29 Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering. 30 At once Jesus realized that power had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?” 31 “You see the people crowding against you,” his disciples answered, “and yet you can ask, ‘Who touched me?’ ” 32 But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it. 33 Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at his feet and, trembling with fear, told him the whole truth. 34 He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.”

The woman with the issue of blood, by natural, understood the situation was hopeless  She was broke and suffering.  The doctors couldn’t help her. Her thoughts conceived faith which led to action.

Lev. 15:25 25 “‘When a woman has a discharge of blood for many days at a time other than her monthly period or has a discharge that continues beyond her period, she will be unclean as long as she has the discharge, just as in the days of her period.

Immediately she felt a change in her body and concluded that the bleeding had stopped and she was healed.

In v. 30 Jesus also felt power going out from him and asked, “Who touched my clothes” In v. 31 The large crowd pressing against Jesus causes the disciples to question Jesus when he says, “Who touched me?”

The woman had been discovered and here we see her desire to be hidden due to the uncleanness she’s had for 12 years. Now she’s “Trembling with fear”. And she spills it, telling the whole truth. In v. 34 Jesus tells her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.”

When we’ve come to the end of our rope, when we’ve exhausted all options we tend to turn to God. Unfortunately for the woman with the issue of Blood, she perhaps could’ve done this sooner and preserved her estate. Even though she’s received a great miracle, her stubborn refusal or inability to turn to God early on in the situation has cost her everything.

Ideas or thoughts that conceive faith which lead to action cause God to move. This pattern is played out over and over again in the ministry of Jesus and the ministry of the disciples.

James 2:26b
faith without deeds is dead.

When there has been a move of God in our midst, often times, people can feel it. Now I realize this can be intangible, however, in this story the feeling occurred simultaneously with the healing. Sometimes we can be a little “hyper” spiritual feeling things here and there but in this story a feeling is consistent with a natural fact. The bleeding stopped! Jesus also feels something and mentions it to His disciples who are amazed at His question.

Here we catch a glimpse into the inner thought life of the woman in v. 33 She had to press through her own fears before she could begin to press through the crowd.

I’m sure she had bumped into people in the past by mistake and made them unclean. I’m sure they gave it to her verbally and maybe even physically for putting them through the process to become ceremonially clean again.

She trembles with fear signifying she does not want to be discovered. She openly and honestly tells the whole truth about the situation and Jesus declares over her, after the healing had already taken place, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.”

What are we afraid of? What will people think? What if God doesn’t heal me? I don’t want to be embarrassed?

Fear must be dealt with if you and I are to operate in healing. Would the woman have been healed if she would’ve concluded that “I don’t want to touch anyone.”?

No! Action must accompany thoughts that conceive faith. Action can be as small as talking about what God is saying or it could be as assertive as reaching out and grabbing someone.

Conclusion: There are many people around us suffering with sickness and disease. We need to receive compassion and passion from God. God wants to use us to help bring them healing.

The Fight of Faith

By Tony V. Hammack

These notes are best when used in conjunction with the audio or video.
1 Timothy 6:12

I. Grace not law
II. 1 Timothy 6:12
III. Faith to manifest God’s kingdom

John 6:29
Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the one He has sent.”

We mustn’t trust in our own abilities to create spiritual realities but our trust must be in Jesus Christ, operating through us.

Matthew 11:30
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Fighting the good fight of faith in the context of 1 Timothy 6 is avoiding:
1.) an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions and
2.)the love of money pursuing righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness.

Thesis: 
I’ve noticed many in the body of Christ don’t have any fight in them. They are bobbing in the water but aren’t fighting for anything. It’s time we picked up the fight of faith.

Fighting for what we cannot see.

Hebrews 11: 1 says, “Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. “

Faith begins where the will of God is revealed. What has God told you? What are you fighting for?

Why is there a “fight” of faith? Well, we have to fight against the inclination to just allow circumstances to determine our reality. When God speaks through His word or into our hearts and we believe it, now we have to fight for it because nothing in the kingdoms of this world or the demonic world wants to see the kingdom of God expressed!

We also have to fight ourselves!

Often the Word of God can be contrary to paradigms of thinking that we’ve grown accustomed to.

Isaiah 55:9
“As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.

When God spoke to Moses and told him what to do, go into Egypt and liberate the Israelites he began to “sputter” a bit in Exodus 3. He tried to hide behind his inability to put his thoughts together quickly.

Acts 7:22
Moses was educated in all the wisdom of the Egyptians and was powerful in speech and action.

If anything is created in the world, it starts with a thought that is believed in. I would call this faith. If you don’t believe you can do something, chances are you will never try it while this remains your mindset. However, if you believe you can do something you will persist until you see it accomplished.

Much of the church has divorced itself from faith because of the fight. It’s much easier to say, “God works in mysterious ways”. Than it is to say, “I’m very sorry, I didn’t have enough faith for this situation.”

Matthew 17:14-20
14 When they came to the crowd, a man approached Jesus and knelt before him. 15 “Lord, have mercy on my son,” he said. “He has seizures and is suffering greatly. He often falls into the fire or into the water. 16 I brought him to your disciples, but they could not heal him.” 17 “You unbelieving and perverse generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.” 18 Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of the boy, and he was healed at that moment. 19 Then the disciples came to Jesus in private and asked, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?” 20 He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

Why were the disciples unable to expel the demon that was causing the manifestation of epilepsy? Was it because God was trying to teach the parents and the boy something important? Was it because God had a greater plan for the boy that included this disease? Was it because he would reach people with the disease he had that otherwise he couldn’t reach?

All these reasons come out of the mouths of Christian leaders on a fairly regular basis but let’s take a look at where Jesus squarely places the responsibility for the solution to this difficult situation.

Reason #1 or Rebuke #1
v. 17 Unbelief

Reason #2 or Rebuke #2
perverse generation

Perverse - turned away from what is right or good : corrupt Generation - a group of individuals born and living at the same time

Reason #3
little faith v. 20

Now in Mark 9:14-29 we see another similar story where Jesus mentions prayer and fasting as the reason the disciples could not drive out a spirit. I believe the prayer and fasting increases the faith of the believer. I don’t believe there is a prayer or fasting threshold that is reached and then spirits come out. It’s not like saving up enough money to buy a car or some other object.

So, you’ve heard the message, and you’re thinking, “I want to fight!”. The fight of faith begins with the work of Jesus on the Cross and is followed up with prayer, fasting and victory over sin. When this starts the fight will begin to be won.

Be Baptized in the Holy Spirit

By Tony V. Hammack

These notes are best when used in conjunction with the audio or video. With things being the way they are and fewer and fewer American citizens believing biblically sound doctrinal truth, I’m convinced that sweeping revival/awakening/renewal is coming to our shores. I believe this revival will be recognized because signs wonders and miracles will return to the Church in the USA.

John Adams said, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” The U.S. Citizenry needs to have internal controls or external controls will be applied causing our nation to spiral out of control into despotism. We need a spiritual awakening again in the U.S.A. and it starts right here, right now.

We need heart knowledge and we need to be ready with our spiritual surf boards when this wave hits. We can miss it…

Luke 19:41,42,44
41 As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it 42 and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes.They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognize the time of God’s coming to you.”

Thesis:
We need to power of the Holy Spirit like never before and we should be baptized in the Holy Spirit with the initial physical evidence of speaking in other tongues. With the baptism comes power, boldness to witness, and holiness.

Power

Jesus is the Fire Baptizer

Matthew 3:11
“I baptize you with water for repentance. But after me comes one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

The Baptism = Power

Luke 24:49
49 I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”

Baptism is a Gift

Acts 1:4
4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about.

Boldness to Witness

Power to Witness in Concentric Circles of Influence

Acts 1:8
8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

The baptism in the Holy Spirit is distinct from and subsequent to the experience of the new birth.

Baptism Illustration

Acts 10:44-46
44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came on all who heard the message. 45 The circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astonished that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on Gentiles. 46 For they heard them speaking in tongues and praising God.

Acts 11:15-16
15 “As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came on them as he had come on us at the beginning. 16 Then I remembered what the Lord had said: ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’

Sometimes people like to make Acts Chapter 2 a unique experience only for the 120 in the upper room, but here we see “the Holy Spirit came on them as He had come on us at the beginning. ”

How are we filled and baptized with the Holy Spirit today? We ask, believing we have received, and we can also have people lay hands on us.

Luke 11:9-13
9 “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. 11 “Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? 12 Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? 13 If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”

Acts 19:6
When Paul placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied.

Refill People

Ephesians 5:18b
be filled with the Spirit.

“be being filled” or “keep on being filled.” (present tense)
“be continually filled by the Spirit.” (passive voice)

God's Plan, Our Obedience

By Tony V. Hammack

	Podcast: Play in New Window | Download To watch the video, click here.

These notes are best when used in conjunction with the audio or video.

Thesis:
Jesus desires for us to hit critical mass in the spirit so we can correctly duplicate Him in the world.

John 17:6-12
6 “I have revealed you to those whom you gave me out of the world. They were yours; you gave them to me and they have obeyed your word. 7 Now they know that everything you have given me comes from you. 8 For I gave them the words you gave me and they accepted them. They knew with certainty that I came from you, and they believed that you sent me. 9 I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours. 10 All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them. 11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one. 12 While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by that name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled.

Jesus is the perfect representation of God.
Obedience to God’s word demonstrates love and opens up revelation to the follower of Christ. Without revelation knowledge the Church has lost connection with the voice and direction of God. Building will be hindered or things built won’t stand.

v. 6 Jesus revealed God to his disciples. Jesus is able to reveal God to people because He is the prefect representation of God.

Colossians 1:15
15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. Jesus in the Father and the Father in the Son

John 14:9-11
9 Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. 11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves.

John 10:30
I and the Father are one.

We, like the disciples and Jesus, are called to be in the world but not of the world. (John 17:14-16) v. 6 The disciples belonged to God, God gave them to Jesus and they obeyed God’s Word. These three steps caused everything to happen. Leave out any one of the three steps and the disciples are just ordinary people.

God can only be revealed to us if God chooses to reveal Himself to us.

John 6:44a
44 “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them,

God’s sovereignty / Our Choice

Jeremiah 29:13
You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

If we obey

John 8:31,32
31 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. 32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

John 14:15
If you love me, keep my commands.

John 14:23,24
23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. 24 Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.

The word “now” in v. 7 indicates that because of this, now that. With prolonged obedience comes revelation knowledge.

Ephesians 1:17
I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.

Because God gave the disciples to Jesus and Jesus taught them the Word of God and they obeyed it, Jesus prayed that the disciples would know “that everything God had given Him comes from God.” This is important because of the foundational importance of having revelation knowledge regarding the identity of Jesus Christ.

Everything Hinges on Revelation

Matthew 16:17-19
17 Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven. 18 And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”

Many in the Church today have traded a pursuit of revelation for a pursuit of theology. Instead of wanting to know God many have decided to learn about God. Theological study has value however it shouldn’t be elevated above knowing God personally.

v. 8 in some ways mirrors v. 6 Jesus got the Word from the Father and delivered it perfectly to the disciples and they accepted it. The disciples knew with certainty that Jesus came from God the Father and they knew that Jesus was sent into the world by God.

v. 9 Jesus specifically mentions that he’s not praying for the World. Why not? He goes on to say that He’s praying for those God had given Him. Evidently God hadn’t given Jesus the world. However, I believe Jesus was believing that the disciples had hit critical mass in the spirit and would also continue to obey and thus perpetuate the ministry into the world.

What’s critical mass?
A size, number, or amount large enough to produce a particular result. What’s critical mass in the spirit? The disciples had enough revelation coupled with obedience to produce a good expression of God’s kingdom through their lives. They were ready to represent Jesus to the world.

I believe Jesus' deliberate strategy was to take over the entire planet with the Gospel. His plan was to have disciples mentoring others in the same way Jesus mentored His disciples. Jesus had His eyes on His disciples and them carrying on His ministry. (John 17:20) Jesus loved the world but realized that His disciples and their disciples etc. would have to be the ones to reach to the uttermost parts of the Earth.

v. 10 Jesus starts talking covenant talk here also between Himself and the Father. In the context of this covenant talk He brings up His disciples. He further mentions that the obedience of the disciples will bring glory to Him. I think of this in a similar way a well behaved or successful child brings honor/glory to the parent of that child.

v. 11 Jesus knows that He’s going to be leaving the world by His sacrificial death, burial and resurrection. He also knows that the disciples have more work to do so He asks God to protect them by the power of his name.

v. 11 (cont.) Jesus prays for the Church to be one. The unity is already given, it’s not achieved. The literal meaning is “that they continually be one”. The unity in the disciples is to resemble the unity between God the Father and Jesus the Son. It’s much more than unity of organization. I believe it’s God’s plan for Church individuals to be in covenant with other church individuals. Committed and deeply loving one another. Not back biting and flippant about their commitments.

Don't Become Weary in Well Doing

These notes are best when used in conjunction with the audio or video.   Kingdom Dynamics

The Enemy attacks the hardest when God is Loving the greatest.

Thesis:
Difficulties and attacks can be the strongest right before God moves in the miraculous. Don’t become weary in well doing…(Gal 6:9; 2 Thes. 3:13)

Our Text
John 13:1-5
It was just before the Passover Feast. Jesus knew that the time had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he now showed them the full extent of his love. 2 The evening meal was being served, and the devil had already prompted Judas Iscariot, son of Simon, to betray Jesus. 3 Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; 4 so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. 5 After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.

John 13:1b
Having loved his own who were in the world, he now showed them the full extent of his love.

When I read this I was like, “Wow, what could be getting ready to happen?” The FULL EXTENT of his love.  Awesome.

In verse 2 of John Chapter 13 we see immediately following the full extent of the release of Jesus' love, the devil is prompting Judas Iscariot to betray Jesus.

Right with the greatest release of God’s love is satan himself! The enemy will fight against the people of God receiving God’s love. When we receive God’s love, satan knows we’ll never be the same.

Our love for God will increase (We Love Him because he first loved us 1 Jn. 4:19) as well as our obedience to the Father. This love motivated obedience will be powerfully used against the satanic agenda.

The Secure Christian
V. 3 Because Jesus knows who he is, he serves his disciples. Christians who don’t know who they are, where they came from, or where they are going, won’t have a servant’s heart for the people God has entrusted to their care. They can be dominated and controlled by insecurities. They can also overcompensate by being domineering.

The 5 Love Languages

• Words of Affirmation
• Quality Time
• Receiving Gifts
• Acts of Service
• Physical Touch

It seems from the above passage in John 13 that Jesus speaks the love language; “Acts of Service”. Or more specifically acts of obedient service prompted by love.

V. 4 starts off with the word "so". This means because of verse 3 now verse 4 happens. Jesus begins to humble himself and wash his disciples feet.

Jesus, by washing the disciples feet is establishing a culture for the early Church. The culture is to include humble, selfless service for one another.

Jesus washed his disciples feet and then said, John 13:14,15 “Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.

Foot washing to me is representative of being willing to do the lowest menial task for someone. Only secure people can do this.

In order to be a humble servant to others we need to know where we come from, who we are, and where we are going. We also need to know and be secure in knowing that doing acts of humble service doesn’t diminish us in any way. If anything, it does the opposite.

After telling the disciples to wash one another's feet in John 13:16 Jesus says “I tell you the truth, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.” So when the person in charge serves the people who have a lower title, they are still in charge. But still serve!

There is a blessing associated with humble service. v. 17 says, “You will be blessed if you do them.” Notice the conditional promise. Knowing this is not what brings the blessing, it’s doing this.

In John 13:26,27 we see again a contrast between the Love of Jesus and the influence of satan. Jesus takes the bread and dips it into a dish. As soon as Judas takes the bread satan himself literally possesses Judas.

The gesture by Jesus with Judas sitting close to Jesus indicating false fellowship.

Evidently the critical moment when Judas received the bread may have been a final appeal by Jesus which Judas did not accept.

It’s also an interesting side note that Jesus' words to Judas/satan indicate that He is still in control of the situation. “What you are about to do, do quickly.”

Parable of the Wheat and the Tares

MT. 13:24-30
In the middle of a crop of born again people there will be seeds of God that will be spread causing Christian growth to happen. Growth in depth of heart as well as numeric growth. However, when the enemy sees this growth he will sow weeds into the mix. The wheat and the weeds will grow side by side until the harvest.

Where Sin Abound does God’s grace that much more abound.

Romans 5:20b
But where sin increased, grace increased all the more,

So, be encouraged if you are going through a difficult time in your life. Difficulties and attacks can be the strongest right before God moves in the miraculous.

Galatians 6:9
9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

2 Thessalonians 3:13
13 And as for you, brothers and sisters, never tire of doing what is good.

Come to the altar today to receive strength for living an overcoming life. We know that when the enemy comes in like a flood God is able to raise up a standard against it. Isaiah 59:19

It may not be the enemy outside but the enemy of self that has gotten us into the spot we're in. Even so, God’s grace is available to turn your situation around for God’s glory.
