QUARANTINE WITHOUT CONFLICT: Navigating Relationships in Close Quarters

Longterm quarantine can cause some people to experience a little sense of stir-craziness.  When more than one person is occupying the same house without being able to leave the premises very often, the extended closeness may cause people to get on one another's nerves.  And yes, the Bible has a lot to say about this, too.  Complete with the visual aid of slides in video format, learn in this short teaching how to successfully manage your family relationships when times are tense.  And if you live alone, this will still help with relationships in general.  

DIVINE ENABLEMENT: Encouragements from Philippians 4

The little chapter of Philippians 4 is packed with powerful truth that is especially meaningful for the times we are in.  From this chapter we learn how to respond in times of difficulty, how to pray effectively, how to tap into divine provision, how to enter a place of peace and contentment even in the midst of trial, and how to trust Christ as our giver of strength.  This 20-minute teaching will shed new light on a little chapter that illuminates a big God.  

FAITH OVER FEAR

Second Timothy 1:7 tells us that God has not given us a spirit of fear.  How does this translate to a proper and Biblical response to the coronavirus then?  This personal message by Pastor Andy is a half-hour overview of Andrew Wommack's 2-hour "Faith Over Fear" teleconference from this past Sunday evening, plus some additional commentary that will help to bolster our faith and give us a wise and Biblical way to respond to the current situation our society is facing.  

Encouragements from Psalm 91

In perilous times it's good to refresh our memories on the promises of God.  This mini-teaching reminds us that God has made wonderful promises of protection for those who draw near to Him -- promises that we can stand on when everything around us seems to be in upheaval.  Be encouraged as we celebrate the wonderful promises of God and remind ourselves that we need not fear plagues or disaster.  

God's Love is Enough: Establishing our Identity in Christ, by Guest speaker, Ebenezer Olatuyi

As Christians we can often fall into the same trap of the world around us in seeking our individual identities in temporal and shallow things.  In this teaching, BLF member Ebenezer Olatuyi shares in his very first full length teaching at BLF how our identities as individuals need to be established, and what the foundation is on which those identities rest.  We are reminded by Ebenezer that God's love is enough!  

PREPARING FOR RAIN: Walking by Faith pt. 7

One important characteristic of faith is demonstrated in an event in the life of Elijah when he prepared for a great rain to break a longtime drought.  The timing of his preparation is instructive in our lives of faith in showing us that faith prepares for the answer to our prayers even when there is little or no evidence of that answer having manifest, but also in the fact that faith is very practical at times and impractical in others, depending on the situation.  Prepare to learn in this teaching how God might be requiring you to act and get ready for the answers to your prayers to manifest.  

BEHOLD, THE POWER OF THE TONGUE: Walking by Faith pt. 6

Medical science has discovered that a person's words and attitudes have a lot to do with their health and treatment outcomes.  Small segments of the medical world have simply stumbled upon a concept that Jesus taught and demonstrated over 2,000 years ago.  Our words have the power to shape our world, and God's standard is that we speak HIS words.  In fact, we learn in this teaching that God considers any words that oppose what He has said an "evil report."  The Bible also tells us that we will give an account some day for every unproductive or damaging word we have spoken.  Learn in this teaching why what we say matters so much.  

FAITH SPEAKS: Walking by Faith pt. 5

Did you know that both the Bible and science agree that words have creative power to change one's present reality eventually?  It seems as though much of today's Church either doesn't believe this very Biblical concept, or else they have never even heard it taught.  So before you make a judgment one way or the other about the "name-it-and-claim-it" gospel, or whatever other name it's being called, give this teaching a listen and come to your own conclusions.  

IN IT FOR THE SPOILS: Guest speaker, Dana Sarver

Our special guest Dana Sarver delivered a timely and powerful word about how to sail through trials with a winning attitude that results in reward. She opened up with a prophetic word specific to BLF, but the rest of the message is timely and strengthening for any and every believer who has ever wondered why they are experiencing what they are going through.  Prepare to be strengthened and encouraged!   

THE SERENITY OF FAITH: Walking by Faith pt. 4

Did you know that up to 95% of visits to primary care physicians are for stress-related disorders?  Yet the Bible commands the people of God countless to times to "not fear" and to "not worry."  Why then are so many of God's people locked in the same cycles of stress and worry as the rest of the world?  It's because we have not yet learned to cast our cares upon Him.  A heart that is truly trusting God is a heart at peace, but we will have to learn to "labor to enter the rest," which is what this teaching is all about.
