VIDEO RESTORING DOUBTING MAN
God has a heart for restoration whether it’s in relationships, finances, sickness, or diseases. He always restores better than before. He takes what is meant for evil and turns out for good. Restoration equals reconciliation. Reconciliation is defined as the restoration of friendly relations. Restoration makes all things new.
Joel 2:25 And I will restore or replace for you the years that the locust has eaten — the hopping locust, the stripping locust, and the crawling locust, My great army which I sent among you.

MERCY THROUGH THE BLOOD OF JESUS 8-3-25 VIDEO
What does the blood of Jesus speak? It speaks mercy and forgiveness. The greatest example of mercy is Jesus paying our debt on the cross. Mercy in Hebrew is translated as love. Through the blood of Jesus we have received the mercy of God. His undeserved kindness and compassion. There is such an agreement in heaven, which is made manifest on the Earth between the water, the blood and the spirit. That when the Holy Spirit sees one soaked in the word and in the blood, he cannot resist and he comes. It takes eternal life to counteract death eternally. When the sinless blood is shed, eternity is opened up because there is no death in it.
Lev 17:11 for the life of an animal is in the blood. I have provided the blood for you to make atonement for your lives on the Altar; it is the blood, the life, that makes atonement. MSG

1 Peter 1:18 It cost God plenty to get you out of that dead-end, empty-headed life you grew up in.
19 He paid with Christ’s sacred blood, you know. He died like an unblemished, sacrificial lamb.
20 And this was no afterthought. Even though it has only lately — at the end of the ages — become public knowledge, God always knew he was going to do this for you. MSG

HEB 12:24 And we have come to Jesus who established a new covenant with his blood sprinkled upon the mercy seat; blood that continues to speak from heaven, “forgiveness,” a better message than Abel’s blood that cries from the earth, “justice.”
25 Make very sure that you never refuse to listen to God when he speaks! For the God who spoke on earth from Sinai is the same God who now speaks from heaven. Those who heard him speak his living Word on earth found nowhere to hide, so what chance is there for us to escape if we turn our backs on God and refuse to hear his warnings as he speaks from heaven? TPT
↓
HEB 12: 26 The earth was rocked at the sound of his voice from the mountain, but now he has promised, “Once and for all I will not only shake the systems of the world,
but also the unseen powers in the heavenly realm!”
27 Now this phrase “once and for all” clearly indicates the final removal of things that are shaking, that is, the old order, so only what is unshakable will remain.
28 Since we are receiving our rights to an unshakable kingdom we should be extremely thankful and offer God the purest worship that delights his heart as we lay down our lives in absolute surrender, filled with awe.
29 For our God is a holy, devouring fire!

Heb 9:11 But when the Messiah arrived, high priest of the superior things of this new covenant, he bypassed the old tent and its trappings in this created world and went straight into heaven’s “tent” — the true Holy Place — once and for all.
12 He also bypassed the sacrifices consisting of goat and calf blood, instead using his own blood as the price to set us free once and for all.
13 If that animal blood and the other rituals of purification were effective in cleaning up certain matters of our religion and behavior,
14 think how much more the blood of Christ cleans up our whole lives, inside and out.
15 Through the Spirit, Christ offered himself as an unblemished sacrifice, freeing us from all those dead-end efforts to make ourselves respectable, so that we can live all out for God. MSG

Eph 1:7 Because of the sacrifice of the Messiah, his blood poured out on the altar of the Cross, we’re a free people — free of penalties and punishments chalked up by all our misdeeds. And not just barely free, either. Abundantly free! MSG

Rom 3:25 Whom God put forward [before the eyes of all] as a mercy seat and propitiation by His blood [the cleansing and life-giving sacrifice of atonement and reconciliation, to be received] through faith. This was to show God’s righteousness, because in His divine forbearance He had passed over and ignored former sins without punishment.
26 It was to demonstrate and prove at the present time (in the now season) that He Himself is righteous and that He justifies and accepts as righteous him who has [true] faith in Jesus. AMP

Col 1:19 For it has pleased [the Father] that all the divine fullness (the sum total of the divine perfection, powers, and attributes) should dwell in Him permanently.
20 And God purposed that through (by the service, the intervention of) Him [the Son] all things should be completely reconciled back to Himself, whether on earth or in heaven, as through Him, [the Father] made peace by means of the blood of His cross.
21 And although you at one time were estranged and alienated from Him and were of hostile attitude of mind in your wicked activities,
22 Yet now has [Christ, the Messiah] reconciled [you to God] in the body of His flesh through death, in order to present you holy and faultless and irreproachable in His [the Father’s] presence. AMP

ROM 5:8 Herein is the extremity of God’s love gift: mankind was rotten to the core when Christ died their death.
9 If God could love us that much when we were ungodly and guilty, how much more are we free to realize his love now that we are declared innocent by his blood?
10 Our hostility and indifference towards God did not reduce his love for us; he saw equal value in us when he exchanged the life of his Son for ours. Now that the act of reconciliation is complete, his life in us saves us from the gutter-most to the uttermost. MIRROR

1 JN 1:7 We are invited to explore the dimensions of the same light that engulfs God; when we see the light in his light, fellowship ignites! In this light, we understand how the blood of Jesus Christ is the removal of every distortion and stain of sin! MIRROR

1 John 1:7 But if we [really] are living and walking in the Light, as He [Himself] is in the Light, we have [true, unbroken] fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses (removes) us from all sin and guilt [keeps us cleansed from sin in all its forms and manifestations]. AMP

Heb 10:19 So, friends, we can now — without hesitation — walk right up to God, into “the Holy Place.” Jesus has cleared the way by the blood of his sacrifice, acting as our priest before God. The “curtain” into God’s presence is his body.
22 So let’s do it — full of belief, confident that we’re presentable inside and out.
23 Let’s keep a firm grip on the promises that keep us going. He always keeps his word. MSG

HEB 10:22 We are free to approach God with absolute confidence, fully persuaded in our hearts that nothing can any longer separate us. We are invited to draw near now! We are thoroughly cleansed, inside and out, with no trace of sin’s stains on our conscience or conduct. The sprinkled blood purges our inner thought-patterns; our bodies also are bathed in clean water. MIRROR

REV 12:11 Mikael and his celestial messengers conquered the Dragon because of the blood of the little Lamb and the word of their testimony! They did not believe that the agape of life discovered in Christ can be threatened or terminated in death! MIRROR

1 Peter 2:23 They called him every name in the book and he said nothing back. He suffered in silence, content to let God set things right.
24 He used his servant body to carry our sins to the Cross so we could be rid of sin, free to live the right way. His wounds became your healing. MSG

1 John 5:7 So there are three witnesses in heaven: the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit, and these three are One;
8 and there are three witnesses on the earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree [are in unison; their testimony coincides]. AMP

HEB 9:20 While performing this cleansing ritual, Moses would solemnly declare, “This is the blood of the covenant which God has made binding upon you.”
21 The same blood was then also sprinkled on the tabernacle, and on all the furniture and ministry utensils.
22 Thus, according to the law, all purging was by means of blood; forgiveness was specifically associated with the shedding of blood.
23 If the methods of the law were only a shadow prefiguring the heavenly reality, the fulfillment of examples surely requires a stronger and more efficacious sacrifice.
24 In Christ we have so much more than a type, reflected in the tabernacle of holy places which was these set up by human hands. He entered into the heavenly sphere itself, where he personally mirror-exhibits us face to face with God. MIRROR
↓↓↓
Heb 9:22 Moses said to the people, “This is the blood of the covenant God has established with you.” Practically everything in a will hinges on a death. That’s why blood, the evidence of death, is used so much in our tradition, especially regarding forgiveness of sins.
23 That accounts for the prominence of blood and death in all these secondary practices that point to the realities of heaven. It also accounts for why, when the real thing takes place, these animal sacrifices aren’t needed anymore, having served their purpose. MSG

Heb 9:28 Christ’s death was also a one-time event, but it was a sacrifice that took care of sins forever. ` so, when he next appears, the outcome for those eager to greet him is, precisely, salvation. MSG

MATT 26:26 As they ate, Jesus took the bread and blessed it and broke it and gave it to his disciples. He said to them, “This is my body. Eat it.”
27 Then taking the cup of wine, he gave thanks to the Father, he entered into covenant with them, saying, “This is my blood. Each of you must drink it in fulfillment of the covenant.
28 For this is the blood that seals the new covenant. It will be poured out for many for the complete forgiveness of sins. TPT

JOHN 6:56 The eating of my flesh and drinking of my blood is the celebration of our seamless union – you in me and I in you – because you won’t find you until you find me! MIRROR

1 Cor 10:16 When we drink the cup of blessing, aren’t we taking into ourselves the blood, the very life, of Christ? And isn’t it the same with the loaf of bread we break and eat? Don’t we take into ourselves the body, the very life, of Christ?
17 Because there is one loaf, our many-ness becomes one-ness — Christ doesn’t become fragmented in us. Rather, we become unified in him. We don’t reduce Christ to what we are; he raises us to what he is. MSG

THE REALITY OF THE KINGDOM LIFE 8-1-25 VIDEO

Jesus came to the Earth with a message of the kingdom life. His message was the kingdom would be available now. Our job is to seek first the kingdom. It’s a priority to do so.

Acts 14:22 There, they continued to firmly reinforce the disciples in the inner person – reminding them about the close proximity of their companionship in Holy Spirit, endorsing their identity in Christ; and urged them to consciously continue in seamless oneness in the faith; engaging the kingdom of God from the throne-room perspective and thus enduring all forms of claustrophobic contradictions.

LUKE 13:18 Then he said to them, “How can I best explain to you what the kingdom of God is like? What illustration can I use?

19 It is like a mustard seed that a man randomly throws in his garden and it grows into a tree; then the birds build their nests in it’s branches.

DIVINE HEALTH IS YOUR INHERITANCE 7-27-25 VIDEO
Healing belongs to you. It’s part of your salvation. God desires our wholeness. Jesus paid for our completeness with His blood. We believe we are to live in healing and give it away to others. When the bible speaks of Jesus, it talks about Him going about doing , good, especially healing those oppressed of the devil. Healing and health are part of the life He has given us. The abundant life is a result of God now living inside us. No sin or sickness has any place in us. There were many ways Jesus brought about healing to the sick. He was totally dependent on doing what He saw the Father do. Sometimes He laid hands on people sometimes He commanded for them to get up and walk. Jesus spoke a word over different ones. He cast out demons. He used his saliva. We have the same Holy Spirit in us so we can walk in perfect health and heal those who are in need of healing by our faith in Jesus.

Isa 53:4 But the fact is, it was our pains he carried — our disfigurements, all the things wrong with us. We thought he brought it on himself, that God was punishing him for his own failures.

ISA 53:4 Yet he was the one who carried our sicknesses and endured the torment of our sufferings. We viewed him as one who was being punished for something he himself had done, as one who was struck down by God and brought low.

42 He commissioned us to announce this in public, to bear solemn witness that he is in fact the One whom God destined as Judge of the living and dead.

11 He answered them, “The man who healed me told me to pick up my bed and walk!”

Matt 8:5 As Jesus entered the village of Capernaum, a Roman captain came up in a panic and said,
6 “Master, my servant is sick. He can’t walk. He’s in terrible pain.”
7 Jesus said, “I’ll come and heal him.”
8 “Oh, no,” said the captain. “I don’t want to put you to all that trouble. Just give the order and my servant will be fine.
9 I’m a man who takes orders and gives orders. I tell one soldier, ‘Go,’ and he goes; to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; to my slave, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
10 Taken aback, Jesus said, “I’ve yet to come across this kind of simple trust in Israel, the very people who are supposed to know all about God and how he works. MSG

Mark 9:20 They brought him. When the demon saw Jesus, it threw the boy into a seizure, causing him to writhe on the ground and foam at the mouth.
21 He asked the boy’s father, “How long has this been going on?” “Ever since he was a little boy.
22 Many times it pitches him into fire or the river to do away with him. If you can do anything, do it. Have a heart and help us!”
23 Jesus said, “If? There are no ‘ifs’ among believers. Anything can happen.”
24 No sooner were the words out of his mouth than the father cried, “Then I believe. Help me with my doubts!”
25 Seeing that the crowd was forming fast, Jesus gave the vile spirit its marching orders: “Dumb and deaf spirit, I command you — Out of him, and stay out!”
26 Screaming, and with much thrashing about, it left. The boy was pale as a corpse, so people started saying, “He’s dead.”
27 But Jesus, taking his hand, raised him. The boy stood up. MSG

Matt 9:35 Then Jesus made a circuit of all the towns and villages. He taught in their meeting places, reported kingdom news, and healed their diseased bodies, healed their bruised and hurt lives. MSG

Matt 12:22 Next a poor demon-afflicted wretch, both blind and deaf, was set down before him. Jesus healed him, gave him his sight and hearing. MSG

Luke 7:21 In the next two or three hours Jesus healed many from diseases, distress, and evil spirits. To many of the blind he gave the gift of sight.

Matt 4:23 From there he went all over Galilee. He used synagogues for meeting places and taught people the truth of God. God’s kingdom was his theme — that beginning right now they were under God’s government, a good government! He also healed people of their diseases and of the bad effects of their bad lives.
24 Word got around the entire Roman province of Syria. People brought anybody with an ailment, whether mental, emotional, or physical. Jesus healed them, one and all. MSG

Luke 6:19 Everyone in the crowd was pressing in to touch him, because power was surging from him and he healed them all, one by one.
20 Finally, having concluded his healing of the multitudes, Jesus lifted up his eyes and spoke to his followers, “To be reduced to the most extreme state of poverty, does not define you. Disaster is not the fruit of fate or karma! The blessing of knowing, that the Kingdom of God belongs to you personally, and that it is oozing from you, is the essence of your wellbeing and identity!” MIRROR

THE FATHER 7-25-25 VIDEO THE FATHERS BLESSING 22
Of all the manifestations of Yahweh in the Bible, the most honored one is God, our heavenly Father. God loves families. He’s the Father to the fatherless. Although we may have an earthly father, we have a heavenly Father. His name is Abba. He’s our ABBA and in Hebrew the word means, dear father or daddy. We are wrapped in the shelter of His wings. Jesus and the Father know each other so well, with such intimacy that Jesus came to show us the Father.
1 JN 3:1 Consider the amazing love the Father lavished upon us; this is our defining moment: we began in the agape of God – the engineer of the universe is our Father! So it’s no wonder that the performance-based systems of this world just cannot see this! Because they do not recognize their origin in God, they feel indifferent towards anyone who does!
2 Beloved, we know that we are children of God to begin with, which means that there can be no future surprises; his manifest likeness is already mirrored in us! Our sameness cannot be compromised or contradicted; our gaze will confirm exactly who he is – and who we are. MIRROR

2 Cor 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of sympathy (pity and mercy) and the God [Who is the Source] of every comfort (consolation and encouragement),
4 Who comforts (consoles and encourages) us in every trouble (calamity and affliction), so that we may also be able to comfort (console and encourage) those who are in any kind of trouble or distress, with the comfort (consolation and encouragement) with which we ourselves are comforted (consoled and encouraged) by God.

JAMES 1:17 Without exception God’s gifts are only good; it’s perfection cannot be flawed. They come from above proceeding like light rays from its source, the Father of lights, with whom there is no distortion, or even a shadow of shifting to obstruct, or intercept the light; nor any hint of a hidden agenda.
18 We were bought by the Word of truth. Our true origin is preserved in God’s resolve. It was according to the Father’s delight that he birthed us: giving authentic, incarnate expression to the Word. Just like the first fruits mirror the harvest, so we mirror the conclusion of his workmanship in the core of our being. MIRROR

REDEEMED 7-20-25 VIDEO RWANDA REDEEMED 2

You are on a journey! Since the moment you receive Jesus, your redeemer, the Holy Spirit has been teaching you what it means to be redeemed. So you can live your life on the Earth as it is in heaven. Redeemed means to be brought back, freed from the consequences of sin through the sacrifice Jesus paid. He paid with his blood.

COL 1:20 He initiated the reconciliation of all things to himself. Through the blood of the cross God restored the original harmony. His reign of peace now extends to every visible thing upon the earth as well as those invisible things which are in the heavenly realm.    

21 Your indifferent mindset alienated you from God into a lifestyle of annoyances, hardships, and labors. Yet he has now fully reconciled and restored you to your original design.  

22 He accomplished this in dying our death in a human body; he fully represented us in order to fully present us again in blameless innocence, face-to-face with God; with no sense of guilt, suspicion, regret, or accusation; all charges against us are officially cancelled.   MIRROR

↓↓↓

Col 1:20 Not only that, but all the broken and dislocated pieces of the universe — people and things, animals and atoms — get properly fixed and fit together in vibrant harmonies, all because of his death, his blood that poured down from the Cross.

21 You yourselves are a case study of what he does. At one time you all had your backs turned to God, thinking rebellious thoughts of him, giving him trouble every chance you got.

22 But now, by giving himself completely at the Cross, actually dying for you, Christ brought you over to God’s side and put your lives together, whole and holy in his presence. MSG

Gal 3:13 Christ redeemed us from that self-defeating, cursed life by absorbing it completely into himself. Do you remember the Scripture that says, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”? That is what happened when Jesus was nailed to the Cross: He became a curse, and at the same time dissolved the curse.

14 And now, because of that, the air is cleared and we can see that Abraham’s blessing is present and available for non-Jews, too. We are all able to receive God’s life, his Spirit, in and with us by believing — just the way Abraham received it.  MSG

 ↓↓↓

GAL 3:13  Yet, Christ paid the full price to set us free from the curse of the law. He absorbed the curse completely as he became a curse in our place. For it is written:

“Everyone who is hung upon a tree is cursed.”

14 Jesus Christ dissolved the curse from our lives, so that in him all the blessings of Abraham can be poured out upon gentiles. And now through faith we receive the promised Holy Spirit who lives in us.  TPT

JOHN 3:16 The entire cosmos is the object of God’s affection! And he is not about to abandon his creation – the gift of his Son is for mankind to realize their origin in him who mirrors their authentic birth – begotten not of flesh but of the Father!  MIRROR

Rom 5:8 But God put his love on the line for us by offering his Son in sacrificial death while we were of no use whatever to him.

9 Now that we are set right with God by means of this sacrificial death, the consummate blood sacrifice, there is no longer a question of being at odds with God in any way.

10 If, when we were at our worst, we were put on friendly terms with God by the sacrificial death of his Son, now that we’re at our best, just think of how our lives will expand and deepen by means of his resurrection life! MSG

Rom 5:18  Here it is in a nutshell: Just as one person did it wrong and got us in all this trouble with sin and death, another person did it right and got us out of it. But more than just getting us out of trouble, he got us into life!

19 One man said no to God and put many people in the wrong; one man said yes to God and put many in the right. MSG

Titus 2:11 God’s readiness to give and forgive is now public. Salvation’s available for everyone!

12 We’re being shown how to turn our backs on a godless, indulgent life, and how to take on a God-filled, God-honoring life. This new life is starting right now,

13 and is whetting our appetites for the glorious day when our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, appears.

14 He offered himself as a sacrifice to free us from a dark, rebellious life into this good, pure life, making us a people he can be proud of, energetic in goodness. MSG

Rom 8:1 With the arrival of Jesus, the Messiah, that fateful dilemma is resolved. Those who enter into Christ’s being-here-for-us no longer have to live under a continuous, low-lying black cloud.
