Elevate Life Sacramento

Pastor Sergio continues this powerful series and tells us about the weapon of our meditation. We'll never be able to speak the Word until we meditate on it first. We have to remove ourselves from the seat of the world, we must meditate and find joy in His Word in order for us to prosper. What we meditate upon soon comes upon us and pulls us towards it. We need to focus on our future, not our past. Meditate, read, then confess His Word!

Pastor Troy Marshall joins us and brings a powerful Word from God about trust and faith! God gave us an understanding of the separation between good and evil. God never wanted us to experience evil, but gave us the choice because that's what relationships are built on. The devil came and lied to Eve with 'God didn't give you everything', what the devil offered was independence from God, this was about control. Adam & Eve's reality changed when they relied on their own souls instead of trusting God. Everything you need, God has placed into your life in abundance. God will not do what you won't do. You have to first pray, then trust God and go above and beyond. Do what you can do, then let God do the rest! You experience the life you chose to focus on.

It's Pentecost Sunday and Pastor Willard brings us a powerful word about why we it's so important to use the gift of the Holy Spirit that Jesus gave us! We cannot just receive the gift of the Holy Spirit and never use it. Praying in tongues is the gateway to the supernatural! The gift of the Holy Spirit was given to us so we can give it to others. The Holy Spirit wants to live inside of us, we have to believe in it! The only way God can't help us is when we don't believe. When we get stuck in the moment, the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. There has to be faith and effort on our part, keep your 'faith switch' turned on!

Pastor Sergio continues this series talking to us about the weapons of our words. We have to align our words with the Word of God. We have to put reading the Bible into our routine everyday. The devil's #1 weapon he uses against us is accusations and words, our thoughts and what we tell ourselves. Our confession is how we deal with satan in every way. We have to use our words to defeat our traumas, anxieties, stresses and everything else weighing on us. Declare God's Word into your life, God will perform His Word! The Lord always keeps His promises to those who believe and have faith in Him! We can't change the fruit until we change the root!

Our good friend Apostle Kirk Newallo from Chaguanas, Trinidad talks to us about how we cannot forget the things we did when we first accepted Christ. In order for us to get back to our first love, we must first do our first deeds for Him. We can't settle for just one breakthrough. Every promise from God is an inheritance for us! Do you remember what God first promised you? Every one of us can fully preach His power and He wants to commission us to do so. We get more people healed by more people praying for healings, we can't be afraid. The presence of God is where His power is and the anointing of God is the manifestation of His power. More presence, more power!

Pastor Sergio continues this series talking to us about how we need to realize the importance of our actions and how those decisions keep us under the law of sin & death or the law of the Spirit of life and Christ Jesus. When you operate outside of God's Word you release the spirit of sin and death into your life, but when you operate under the Spirit of God's Word you release the spirit of life! The Bible is the sword of the Spirit, we have to use it and not just keep it on our wall like a display. The more of God's Word you get in you, the more the power of sin and death loses it's grip on you. We have to quit checking with our feelings and flesh about why we need to read the Bible everyday. We have to have the understanding the Bible is powerful. We can't seek for answers outside of the Word of God!

Pastor Sergio tells us how we have to quit being afraid of the real enemy, which is ourselves, and start using and understanding the weapons we have to fight our battles. We can't allow ourselves to fight our anxiety and stress the way the world does. Our weapons are not worldly! The devil is jealous because we get to praise God and not him. We have to get up and do what God's Word tells us to do in order to demolish the strongholds in our lives. We have to fight the way God tells us to fight, not how the world says we should! If we don't fight, we can never possess the promises God has for us. The battles we don't fight, our kids have to fight.

Pastor Sergio gives us tools for how to defeat the spirit of discouragement. The enemy wants to disrupt us when we're trying to 'carry our cargo' that the Lord has blessed us with, so we have to understand what we need to fight this spirit. We have to speak God's Word, meditate on His Word and obey His word! God saved us to prosper for His purpose and has promised us an abundant life, but we have to be obedient to His Word. We have to get the visions for our life from Him. God's love language is obedience!

Dr. Skye Davis talks to us about why praising God is so important even in barren and uncertain times. So many times we wander in search of our identity and purpose, like Hannah in the Bible, but we have to get into God's presence so we can praise Him and experience breakthrough! When God opens doors for us we have to make sure we honor him with our praise. We owe God our praise! Our praise can shift our situation. It's because of our response in praise that we experience breakthrough, praise changes circumstances! We have to remain in a posture of praise and allow our praise for Him to be what we hold on to. Your praise is a weapon and it's also what is required.

Pastor Sergio brings us an incredible word about why we can't just acknowledge how we're saved by the blood of Jesus and ignore His flesh. Most Christians just want the blood, but not the 2nd part of the Passover which is to 'eat His flesh'. The way we eat His flesh is to read His word, to devour His word! We have to eat the 'whole lamb', the good parts and the bad parts. In our walk with Christ it's not always going to feel good. We cannot choose the world and Christ. In casual Christianity, we can't defeat the world, the world defeats us. God measures us by our obedience, He tells us to love Him with all our spirit and body and to love our neighbor in the same way. That's what loving God and lifting others is all about!

Pastor Sergio talks about Palm Sunday and how we need to make sure we're serving God's agenda and not our own. Palm Sunday was the day Israel gathered around Jesus because they were excited for Him to do what they wanted and now what God's will was, which was selfish. Jesus was on earth to fulfill God's agenda and Israel got mad and turned on Him and called for His crucifixion. God always has a greater perspective than us, we can't have a limited or selfish vision when we pray. When God says no to a prayer it's only because He's got something bigger and better for you. The one thing that fuels our prayers is obedience. We cannot be prideful, God works against pride. He gives us grace to the humble, which is empowering to us so we don't fall. God exists for us to do His will, not Him trying to do ours.

Pastor Sergio talks to us about how we have to have a strong spirit in order to get through all the adversities in our lives so we can serve God boldly how he tells us to. We have to feed our spirit everyday with prayer and with His Word in order for it to grow. We can't be concerned with how we feel we look to the world, we have to praise God every day, no matter if it looks foolish. God has chosen foolish things to overcome the world to change our lives. We can't praise God if we're prideful. Praise is: allowing our flesh to die and give God glory! It's our responsibility to build up our spirits. A strong spirit gives us the ability to hear from God!
