By Pastor Warren Richardson All firsts belong to God! When you do this, everything comes in divine alignment! It starts today with 1st fruits. God lays claims to all 1sts. When you lay claim to keep for yourself something that belongs to God you are desecrating what is to be consecrated. Romans 11:16 “If the root is Holy, so are the branches.” 1st represents the total whatever you do with the 1st governs what happens to the rest! Proverbs 3:9-10 1st fruits - 1st in place,

Pastor Warren Richardson 1 CORINTHIANS 2:4-5 ACTS 1:8 MATTHEW 11:20-22 The anointing, a key to personal growth. Anointed ministry brings us into contact with the power needed for personal transformation. Passion for Him! THE HUNGER FOR THE DEMONSTRATION OF POWER MUST NOT BE SEPARATED FROM OUR PASSION FOR HIM. I will not lower the standard of the bible to my level of experience. As for power, whatever i receive from God I must give away. The miracle realm of God is always with

By Pastor Warren Richardson “Holy Communion” - Receive and be made whole. When we partake of the Holy Communion, we “Proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.” 1 Corinthians 11:26 “By His stripes we are healed.” Isaiah 53:5 The blood of Jesus brings forgiveness of sins. Colossians 1:14 The Holy Communion is Gods ordained channel of healing and wholeness! “Jesus did not walk on water all the time He did not calm storms all the time but He healed all the time.” We reverse the c

By Pastor Warren Richardson “Come Know the Holy Spirit” John 14:16-17 Many people don’t know the Holy Spirit and don’t know how to get to know Him. The key here is to become acutely sensitive to the movement of the Holy Spirit. “Step Aside” to let His movement and plan come forth. Zechariah 2:13 NIV Be still before the Lord, all mankind, because he has roused himself from his holy dwelling. The Holy Spirit is always moving and He longs to share what heaven wants to do in the

By Pastor Warren Richardson She lost her parents at an early age, but refused to build her future around past tragedies. She was the most beautiful woman in 127 provinces, yet depended on the weaponry of fastingto achieve her goals. Her people were targeted for a massacre but she aborted it through skillful decision making. Her name was Esther. The warrior is not known for their weapons, but their wisdom! Wisdom Keys of Esther Wisdom Key # 1 She respected the counsel of those

By Pastor Warren Richardson Joshua 6:1, 2 Dream big, pray hard, and think differently. Matthew 20:29-34 - Jesus said, “what do you want me to do for you?” More than 1,000 years after the Jericho miracle another miracle happened in the exact same place. Jesus forced the (2) blind men to define exactly what they wanted from Him. He made them verbalize their desire. They circled it. Knowing what to circle is where it begins. Many have no idea what they want God to do for them. G

Deuteronomy 6:6-9 To change your life you have to change your story! Keep your eyes focused on what God has done. The Testimony The testimony must be declared. Nothing happens in the Kingdom until there is a declaration! Words actually cause things to happen the moment they leave our mouths. “The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” Rev. 19:10 Testimony means “to do again” How has God encountered you and changed your life? Declare His victory and healing in yo

Pastor Warren Richardson “Unquestionably Free” (John 8:36 AMP) What does it mean to be unquestionable? Absolutely free indeed. In what ways are you free? In what ways are you not? Read Exodus 3:7,8 What does that tell you about whatever is hindering you, binding you, keeping you stuck! What is God about to do in your life? In Romans 8:1-16 & Isaiah 9:4. What is the only way to become unquestionably free? Where does this need to start for you and how can you get in agreement w

By Pastor Warren Richardson Jesus showed Himself alive after His Passion. Acts 1:3 Look behind the crisis of the cross and see the passion and purpose of the cross! Revelation 2:5 Sometimes we do not have much sense but we have passion! You can push through a lot when you have passion. Learn to challenge your passion. Passion - you can have the right passion but the wrong place. Live Passionately! Misplaced passion is very dangerous ○ If you're passionate you take notes in c

By Pastor Warren Richardson What is it? God made everything out of the gross wealth of what He thought! Things in your life will be the residual of how you think. When I start drilling down into the next; I see people just getting by/existing. How do you gather a team around you if you don’t have measurable goals? Growth is intentional! GOD, GOALS, GUIDANCE If you don’t aim at it you won’t hit it! Joshua 5:13-14 (NIV) Whatever you give yourself to it will give to you. Study

By Pastor Warren Richardson “For this I was born” Ephesians 1:18 Ephesians 4:1,2 What cause, if any, will define your life? What legacy will you leave? “I wholeheartedly agree & believe there is one cause that is greater than any other!” It gives meaning, direction & purpose to everyday. It is the cause of Jesus Christ! Jesus was asked are you a king then? “You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born & for this cause I have come into the world.” John

By Pastor Warren Richardson LEADING Live To Lead Leadership is not for the faint of heart. We are summoned to lead. Leading is mentoring, coaching, and training. Anointing by Association, Succession, and Impartation. The great divide is that sometimes leaders are not even aware of the next! With growth comes stretching and changing. Psalms 78:7,8 Mentoring is an act of obedience. True mentors win the hearts of those they lead. Mentors teach us how to grow up! We all need peo

By Pastor Warren Richardson “The Law of Synergy and God's Purpose” The real change is chosen change! Philippians 2:2 The law of change says: Things are going to change’ Sometimes things need to change Things are going to change with or without me. Things in my world will change for the better when I change for the better. One of the main reasons people resist change is because of the conflict that change causes! The opposite of conflict is comfort. Most of the time it’s not t

Pastor Warren Richardson Genesis 2:24 Ephesians 4:3 Many are married but they are not joined. A Godly marriage is like a triangle God’s plan for oneness is ONE PICTURE. First comes marriage then comes real agape love. God is the 3rd partner in the marriage. Real men pour into their wives! Ephesians 5:22-25 Wonder what would happen if you were committed to the marriage. Bruised love Love pours, lust takes. “Love like you have never been hurt.” Love requires an openness that i

By Pastor Warren Richardson If you're not willing to change, don't expect your life to either! 1. Reveal your pain, especially when shame keeps you hiding. Shame based living is really toxic! Shame - humiliation so painful so overwhelmingly embarrassing & so deeply degrading that the person feels he or she is sinking into the ground. It is the SELF that condemns self. This is what condemnation is, but God gives us the gift of no condemnation. Romans 8:1 Reading Suggestions:

Who God is to us, He will be through us. When Jesus taught during His earthly ministry the crowds of people responded in three ways: ● Some disbelieved ● Some believed ● Some went away confused and not knowing what to believe When it comes to joining God, it seems human nature is quite the same. Looking up the definition of join, it gives the example of a pipe joined together so closely that you cannot see the seam where one pipe ends and the other begins. Some people state t
