Death, Burial, Resurrection – You go down and God raises you up, daily. That’s the Gospel re-enacted in your daily life. There’s no other way to walk with, to follow Jesus (Luke 9:23-24).

We are to be “crucified with Christ” and so the continual bearing about in our bodies of the dying of Jesus guarantees a perpetual resurrection power and grace raising us upward. Death and burial must of necessity precede resurrection.

Will you declare today with Christ’s apostle Paul that you are crucified with Christ?

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20

Jesus is calling His people to the cross He mandates that we take up (Luke 9:23-24; John 14:15, 21-23).

You don’t have to ask the Holy Spirit to come, to increase. Jesus told us where He comes, where He increases, is where we are choosing to decrease.

“He must increase, but I must decrease. … For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him.” John 3:30, 34

Notice that while Jesus was on the earth the Holy Spirit was given to Him without measure, immeasurably. Why?

“I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.” John 5:30

Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He did the work and will of His Father and was immeasurably filled with the Holy Spirit.

“How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.” Acts 10:38

Is there a connection between God’s power and presence in our lives and our obedience to Him? Yes. Definitely. Absolutely.

The Holy Spirit of God is given in measure to us in proportion to our abiding in Christ, in the cross life He calls us to. God is working mightily in those who are truly abiding in Christ! Read this passage below carefully saints:

“He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. … 23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.” John 14:21, 23

Many gather to conjure up more of the Holy Spirit’s presence. Futility. Repent. Love God supremely. Obey God. That’s when and in whom the Holy Spirit will dwell powerfully.

Many have over spiritualized our walk with God. It’s very practical actually (Colossians 2:6-10, etc.).

“I remember when I got saved, giving my life to Jesus. I started reading the Bible, and following the words of the Lord Jesus. One day I noticed, so many of my old ways were gone by keeping my heart and mind on Him, I was changed. The more we apply His word to our lives we keep changing. We become what we spend our time on. Hebrews 4:12- for the Word of God is living and active, and shaper than an two edged sword, able to change our hearts and minds to live for God. It was God’s word, by God’s Holy Spirit that changed me. It’s alive, it’s supernatural, it has the power to change us from the inside out. So I encourage all to read, and keep reading, and allow God to work in your life. He get’s all the glory for changing us, we need to keep our eyes on Jesus, not on ourselves, or the world. That’s our job! To Set our hearts and minds on things above, and seek first the Kingdom of God and His Will. Matthew 6:33. God’s Will is full of peace, joy, righteousness. Our Salvation is in Jesus Christ, the Lord. There is salvation in No other Name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12″ Sharon Matthews

IF God is your Father, if you are His, “ALL things are yours” (1 Corinthians 3:21). With this truth in mind, please tell Him what you have need of! – simply “ASK and ye shall receive” (Matthew 7:7). Ask Him beloved and Jesus Christ, the Great Intercessor at the Father’s right hand, will see that it’s answered! “ALL power in heaven and in earth” is invested in the name, the authority, the divine Person of the LORD Jesus Christ – who was crucified for our sins, defeated death, hell, the grave, and Satan (Matthew 28:18-20)!

“And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. 24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.” John 16:23-24

2 FACTS: JESUS IS STILL THE KING OF ALL KINGS, THE LORD OF ALL LORD’S AND IN FULL CONTROL OF ALL OF HIS CREATION (Colossians 1-2). The devil is STILL a liar, the father of it, and doing his evil business today – till he shall be soon vanquished into the bottomless pit (John 8:44; 1 Peter 5:8; Revelation 12:10; 20:3).

Memorize: “And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.” (Mark 10:27)

“We love him, because he first loved us.” 1 John 4:19

God Himself saves us. Truth. Perhaps we speak too much about our part, our faith, and not the One by whose blood saves us (Romans 5:9). God alone can save, our faith is merely the appropriation, the divinely given condition (Romans 5:1; Ephesians 2:8-9; Hebrews 11:6). Both are necessary, one is primary and that’s Jesus Christ who is our salvation, who is eternal life (1 John 5:20-21). We are redeemed by Him, our connection to Him is repentance and faith (Acts 20:21). It’s true that our LORD saves us, we don’t save ourselves, we simply believe upon Him who justifies us, the ungodly (Romans 3:21-26; 4:4-5). We are redeemed by His “precious blood,” by “the blood of his cross” (1 Peter 1:18-19; Colossians 1:20). “The Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins” and He does that upon our turning to Him in repentance and faith (Matthew 9:6; John 1:12). God saves us, we don’t save ourselves. Our faith does not save us, GOD saves us and He requires our faith as a condition to receive that gift of salvation.

Overcoming all Hindrances

“But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Corinthians 15:57

Jesus Christ is God and He never has nor ever will diminish one iota in His power to save, make whole, and deliver. We know He desires to do these thing but why doesn’t He do it? Sin. …. who’s ready to be made free, to be forgiven of all your sin? Listen to your Maker clearly…

“Behold, the LORD’S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: 2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.” Isaiah 59:1-2

WITH the power of the Holy Ghost, you are a one-man wrecking ball for JESUS (Acts 1:8). What saith Joshua 1:3 and 1 John 3:8 and Revelation 12:11? Boom.

The Cross Life

Resurrection Grace [podcast]

NOTHING – NO MAN, NO DEVIL CAN STOP THIS! Just as no man, no devil could possibly stop the resurrection of Christ, no entity or army can stop the resurrection life of Christ in His saints, as they submit to their own death and burial. Resurrection follows! “Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. 12 […]

Your Life Will Never be the Same [podcast]

The “More Blessed” Life “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Acts 20:35 The “more blessed” life is the cross life our LORD calls us to. “And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. 24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.” Luke 9:23-24 These are the words of the Messiah – who gave His life to purchase His church. And dare we say […]

The Killing Power of the Holy Ghost with Judge Travis Bryan III [podcast]

“For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.” Romans 8:13

“The cross of Christ is the sweetest burden that I ever bore; it is such a burden as wings are to a bird, or sails to a ship, to carry me forward to my harbor.” Samuel Rutherford

Momentum in the power of the Holy Spirit comes from a continual perpetual downward dying motion, being then raised up reciprocally in the resurrection grace of Jesus Christ.

“The flesh loses its power over you when it is crucified. Christ’s power begins to reign. The worries and stress of this life leave. And you begin to have the peace that passes all understanding. Philippines 4:7 Amen! A crucified life! Hallelujah all praise to Jesus.” Karen Cochran

God’s plan for your life….here it is:

The ministry has put together 3 volumes sure to deepen your life in Christ, in the crucified life. 3 volumes to boost your life in Christ, in the cross He commanded us to take up – and by which He raises us upward in His glorious power and grace (Luke 9:23-24).

The Cross is a Surrender Not a Struggle [podcast]

The Cross is a Surrender not a Struggle Seems apparent that the struggle comes with living in the flesh, from resisting the surrender. In contrast, “the peace of God which passeth all understanding” comes from walking in the Spirit with Christ (Psalms 119:165; Galatians 5:22-23; Philippians 4:7). On the cross…. “And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.” Luke 27:46 Then what happened? “He is not here: for HE IS RISEN, as he said. Come, see the place where the […]

“Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. 12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.” 2 Corinthians 4:10-12 The cross is the divine prescription for a holy life which means a life set apart to the LORD (Psalms 4:3). The posture of the true disciple is never to hide behind the […]

The Cross vs Eternal Security [podcast]

Romans 6 Dead to Sin, Alive to God 1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have […]

The Spirit of Holiness [podcast]

The Divine Hope and Prescription for Holiness “And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:” Romans 1:4 HAVE YOU ever struggled with sin? If so, you are not alone. It is through the “communion of the Holy Ghost” in relationship with our LORD, that the sinful nature is put under so that the life of Jesus is manifested in our lives (2 Cor. 4:10-11; 13:14, etc.). Please beware of the diabolical, cheap substitutes such as various forms of perfection by way of self – the flesh. These are deadly […]

The LORD Lift Up His Countenance Upon Thee, and Give Thee Peace [podcast]

“For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. 4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, 5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; 6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; 7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.” Titus 3:3-7

“The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: 25 The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: 26 The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. ” Numbers 6:24-26

The Riches of His Grace

“In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;” Ephesians 1:7 It’s been said that “God bankrupted Heaven to buy us back to Himself!” “Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.” 2 Corinthians 9:15 Jesus judged sin on the cross so we don’t have to be judged for our sin and so we can experience “the exceeding riches of his gracE” both now and forever (John 12:31-32; Ephesians 1:7; 2:7). The claims of the Father’s justification to redeem mankind could only and exclusively have been satisfied in the perfect […]

Keys to Approaching God [podcast]

“For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. … O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?” Romans 7:18, 24 The cross reveals your sin, and God’s love, not how wonderful you are! Repent! David, the only man in the Bible called by the LORD “a man after mine own heart”, knew God and knew how to approach Him! Let’s take a tip from beloved king David: […]

LESS than the Least! Filthy Rags Fellowship! [podcast]

The cross reveals your sin, and God’s love, not how wonderful you are! Repent! FACT: NO ONE, not one person on this earth needs Jesus more than this fool, this pauper who is nothing without Christ! (Romans 7:18; Ephesians 3:8; 1 Timothy 1:15) Jesus died, was buried, and raised again from the dead to forgive, regenerate, redeem, and grant complete victory in this life to every one of His people. Yet, we must do things God’s way and no other way. JESUS JUDGED SIN ON THE CROSS SO WE DON’T HAVE TO BE JUDGED FOR OUR SIN AND SO WE […]

GOD ISN'T ANSWERING EVERYONE'S PRAYERS-GET OVER IT! [podcast]

In its most basic definition, prayer is communion with the LORD and not just a place for us to selfishly ask Him, out of our uncircumcised heart to do things for us or to give us more stuff. Does God answer all prayer? While His people were in rebellion, the LORD made promises to bless them but only if they complied with His just requirements. We see this throughout Holy Writ. Here’s but one of a myriad of examples. “Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil; […]
