Prayer Practices that Produce, by Tom Passo

BLF elder, Tom Passo, teaches on principles of prayer that produce results.  

CONFIDENCE BEFORE GOD: Faith, the Next Level pt. 7

I KNOW WHAT YOU'VE BEEN THINKING!  Yes, at times you feel like you don't measure up; like a victorious Christian life is for those "other" Christians, but not you.  You've blown it so many times that you don't even feel like trying anymore.  If that describes you, you suffer from the same identity crisis that many other Christians suffer from but rarely ever verbalize.  But if you could get a revelation about how God really sees you, and begin seeing yourself the same way, it would radically change things in your life.  Come discover how His yoke is easy, and His burden light.  It's time to discover how to have confidence before God.  

TYING GOD'S HANDS: Faith, the Next Level, pt. 6

Wanna hear something that may rock your theology?  Psalm 71 says of the ancient Israelites that they provoked God and LIMITED the Holy One of Israel.  Is it possible to limit God where you are concerned?  Even Jesus could not perform many miracles in his hometown because of the lack of faith of the people He wished to minister to.  This is a radical idea for some people who might believe that God will do whatever wants whenever He wants.  But that's not what the Bible says.  Scripture teaches that God responds to faith.  So it behooves us learn what faith is, and how we might be limiting God in our lives...if we want results, that is.  

HONOR IN THE MEETING OF THE CHURCH: Faith, the Next Level, pt. 5

Do you know that God has in mind to honor you?  God said in 1 Samuel 2:30, "He who honors Me, I will honor."  It's imperative, then, that we learn exactly how God expects to be honored if we want Him to honor us in return.  God has a glorious future in mind for you, but there are certain things He requires on your end to qualify for honor.    

THE REWARDS OF LOYALTY: Faith, The Next Level pt. 4

The scriptures tell us that it's the little foxes that spoil the vine.  Sometimes it's the "little" hidden things that go unnoticed that kill people's progress and hinder their prayers.  The issue of loyalty is one of those things.  This teaching examines what loyalty is, and looks at three Biblical examples of loyalty and and disloyalty, and the results of both.  You're about to discover how serious God is about loyalty, and how a person who lives it out is favored and blessed as a result.  

The Power of His Resurrection: Forgetting the Past, Straining Toward What is Ahead

It has been said that the past is always with you.  But the Christ-follower has been given a promise that "old things are passed away; behold, all things have become new."  Jesus' reserrection, therefore, wasn't for Him alone.  The scriptures tell us that the same power that raised Christ Jesus from the dead is at work within us, changing us, refining us, and shaping us into brand new people in the image of the One Who conquered death, hell, and the grave.  So you can truly leave the past in the past and embrace the calling for which God has created you.  With the right perspective, today can be a new beginning for you.  It's day one of the rest of your life!   

REDISCOVERING HONOR: Faith, The Next Level pt. 3

Are you an honorable person?  How do you know?  How do you define honor?  Let's take a look in the mirror of God's Word.  Many people are stuck in ruts they can't get out of because they have not been honorable in many situations and don't realize it because our society doesn't teach honor these days.  But a truly honorable person in God's sight is in line for promotion.  After this teaching and the ones that follow, ignorance about honor will no longer be your problem.  

REVERENCE AND FAITH: Faith, The Next Level, pt. 2

Did you know that your ability to walk in strong faith is related to your level of reverence for the things of God? 

ALL OR NOTHING: Faith, The Next Level pt. 1

WARNING!  THIS MESSAGE MIGHT CHALLENGE YOUR CURRENT VIEW OF CHRISTIANITY.  Did you know that the reason Jesus said that the road to salvation is narrow, and few are those who find it, is because the cost is high?  It's going to require a total abandonment of self and a total selling out to God. This message is one that is not taught enough in American churches, but one that must be proclaimed if we are to really understand the gospel and follow Jesus as a true disciple.  

LOVE IS A CHOICE: A More Excellent Way, pt. 12 with Mark and Juli Suverkrup

Very unlike the cultural and Hollywood concept of love, Mark and Juli Suverkrup detail how love is a choice and not always a feeling.  Their discussion brings out many points that are game-changers.
