Hey there,

I hope you are walking in the love of Jesus for you this week. His love is the most powerful and impacting reality available to us. It is His love that frees us and empowers us. It is His love that makes the way for truth to have its intended impact of setting people free.

Most of us have received our election ballots in the mail, so this coming Sunday I am going to speak about Kingdom values and our roles as Kingdom people.

Unfortunately we live in a time of moral revolution as Biblical foundations are being dug up and pulverized. And while politicians and activists try to lay new foundations, for the believer there is "no foundation that can be laid other than Jesus Christ." 1 Cor 3:11

Please be in prayer, ready to love and make every effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace." Eph 4:3

The joy of the Lord is strength for us!

Good Wednesday afternoon,

I love when I discover a characteristic about God that is also said to be true about us. Our Ephesians study is replete with the concept of "us in Him and Him in us."

Here's today's discovery: agathosune

Meaning: kindness in actual manifestation, virtue equipped for action, combines being good and doing good.

Here are the verses:

"Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness and the work of faith with power..." 2 Thess 1:11

"Now I myself am confident concerning you, brothers, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another." Romans 15:14

Of course, we know this about the Father, that's just who He is; He is good and does good. Ps 119:68

But the Romans verse says the same thing about us. We are FULL of agathosune. Full of goodness that translates into action; so much goodness in our hearts that it spills out into life. Like our Father, that's just who we are!

You don't have to try to be good today. You ARE good!

Bless ya,

Good morning Reign family,

"In Christ" is Paul's favorite designation for Jesus. He uses "in Christ" or "in Him" at least 10 times in the first 14 verses.
We have learned a lot about Identity and our position in Christ of late. Here is another thought on the topic.

Much of our emotional stability is based on what we do or what we have accomplished; we are literally under the influence of how we are perceived. How many times have you been asked, "so what do you do?" Most of us would like to respond in a way that makes us look like we have at least something going on.

I had a buddy in San Diego named Charlie who ran a very successful company that refinished floors for large sports complexes like UCLA. Being a funny guy, when asked what he did, Charlie would answer, "I sweep floors." He liked to gauge people's reactions when they found out what he really did.

What is this need we have, to be something more than His son or daughter?

"In Christ" is the answer to this need of the soul. "In Christ" frees us to be nothing and it frees us to be everything He says we are. "In Christ is where the blessings are. v3 "In Christ is where everything finds its meaning. v10 "In Christ" is where we find our inheritance. v11 "In Christ" is simply better than anything else, anything!

Let's not be fooled any longer. "In Christ" is the place to be!

Bless you,

Good morning Reign family,

I hope you had a great day celebrating our amazing country with family and friends. We are so blessed, and we are wise to give thanks to our Father for His goodness.

Here is a quick follow-up from Sunday with a few words from Oswald Chambers:

"Get into the habit of dealing with God about everything. Unless in the first waking moment of the day you learn to fling the door wide back and let God in, you will work on a wrong level all day; but swing the door wide open and pray to your Father in secret, and every public thing will be stamped with the presence of God."

Remember:
Acknowledge Him and all He is.
Believe what He has said.
Come, just come.

Have a great day!

Good beautiful morning!

Habakkuk was a prophet during one of Judah's most critical periods. Things were not good: collapse of the legal system, violence against its citizens, and oppression of the poor, just to name a few. The world around Judah was at war, with Judah being threatened from the North.

He wrote this vital and timely prayer: "Lord, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, O Lord. Renew them in our day, in our time make them known..."

Sometimes it's good just to remind ourselves of how awesome the Lord is and remember the things He has done. And then cry out like Habakkuk, "DO IT AGAIN, LORD!"

You and I are supernatural people, living in a supernatural Kingdom, with a supernatural God in us. Let's live like it. Amen?

Jen and I love you,
