BE Transformed with Gornie Williams

Episode 30 - Romans 4:21 says “now Abraham, being fully convinced that what God had promised, He was able also to perform.” Who fully convinced Abraham? Was it God? Well if God is the one, why isn't everybody fully convinced of God's promise? A lot of people are not fully convinced, and yet God's the same with all of us. He is no respecter of persons. You see, we are the ones who fully persuade ou...

Episode 29 - 2 Timothy 3:16 "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof (evidence), for correction, for instruction in righteousness." God has not called us to believe things into existence. Our faith is built on the word of God. It is a rock and it is true whether we believe in it or not. So faith does not make a thing true. The action steps of faith...

Episode 28 -  James 1:22 & 25 22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does. To have determined faith is to have faith with an unwavering resolve: the kind of faith that allows nothing to stand in...

Episode 27 -  Matthew 26:73. says “After a little while those standing there went up to Peter and said surely you are one of them for your accent gives you away.” Even in the midst of Peter denying that he knows Jesus, he can't help but to sound like somebody who does. The next verse talks about how he has to curse ... He had to sound more like them to disassociate himself from Him. Ask yours...

Episode 26 -  1 Peter 1:8 “…believing, you rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory.” Believe what the Word says Jesus has done for you. Think about it, sing about it, shout about it, Praise Him continually. Every day. Make it a part of your lifestyle and watch as God goes to work on your behalf.

Episode 25 -  Hebrews 13:15 says “by him, therefore, let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually. That is the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name.” It is evidence of strong faith when you lift your voice. Start giving glory and praise to God over His promise, over His Word. You KNOW what the Word says. You AGREE with what the Word says, now SAY what the Word says. Your vo...

Episode 24 -  Hebrews 4:14 “Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed into the Heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession.” Confession means to “say the same thing”. It is an ongoing affirmation, an ongoing testimony of what we believe, what we hold, to be true. Confession is a vital part of our spiritual growth as believers, and critical to our pursui...

Episode 23 - There is no such thing as unchallenged faith. Satan, other people, and this fallen world will challenge your faith. 1 Timothy 6:12 “Fight the good fight of faith. Lay hold on eternal life, to which you are called and have professed a good profession before many witnesses.” One of the keys to fighting a good fight of faith is your profession or confession of faith. 1 John 5:4 “for ever...

Episode 22 -  Faith and God's spoken word go together. When you have the God kind of faith, you are going to speak the Word of God. Mark 11:23 “for assuredly I say to you, whosoever SAYS to this mountain be removed and be cast into the sea and does not doubt in his heart but believes those things he SAYS will come to pass (or be done) he will have whatever he SAYS”.

Episode 21 -  2 Corinthians 4:13 -   since we have  the same spirit of faith, according to what is written,  “I believed and therefore I spoke,”  we also believe and therefore speak, God believed and God spoke. Faith and speaking go hand in hand. It's how he brought the world into existence. And it’s how we come to Christ. You cannot be saved without speaking. There is no...

Episode 20 -  A lot of people think that the will of God is like shooting at a target. Sometimes you hit it and sometimes you don't, and that's not the case. The will of God can and should be known. 1 John 5:14-15 "This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we...

Episode 19 - Wisdom is the application of God’s Word. Proverbs 4:7-8 says "For skillful and Godly Wisdom is the principal thing ..." Principal means first in importance. That means the Word of God needs to occupy the place of highest importance in all of your activities. Whatever you are facing, the very first thing you should ask God for is wisdom (James 1:5).

Episode 18 - Unbelief creates Strongholds in our lives. We pray and fast to deal with unbelief. Prayer and fasting does not cause us to perform better. Prayer and fasting causes us to believe better. Because under the covenant of grace, it's about believing Jesus.

Episode 17 - What is it that you want? Can I tell you something that may shock you? The things that we think we want are not what we really want. We actually want what we think is on the other side of having the thing we want. And as Christians, those things are already on the inside of us. Psalm 37:4 says ‘Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.’

Episode 16 - Let’s examine what we already believe, what we already, subconsciously, in our hearts, hold to be true. We hold beliefs based on evidence, but what we mean by "evidence" – well … that certainly varies. Much of what we believe is subjectively based on intuition, experience, and trust in what other people have said. And this can lead to false beliefs.

Episode 15 - If we want to walk by faith, the Word must dominate in every area of our life. And as we trust God with all of our heart, a quietness and a peace come into our lives. “For we which have believed do enter into rest …” (Hebrews 4:3). “And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:7).

Episode 14 - “Now set your mind and heart to seek (inquire of and require as your vital necessity) the Lord your God. Arise and build the sanctuary of the Lord God, so that you may bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord and the holy vessels of God into the house built for the Name and Presence of the Lord.”- 1 Chronicles 22:19.

Episode 13 - As Christians we have to realize that, yes, we must work on our conscious mind; the thinking part of our soul. We must, according to Romans 12:2 “let God transform us into a new person by changing the way we think.” But, that is not the end game. Our ultimate goal is to renew our mind, to manage our conscious thinking, so we can control what gets into our hearts. Proverbs 23:7 sa...

Episode 12 - Any area of our life where we are not being pulled by a promise, we are being driven by fear. The devil is predictable. He uses thoughts, ideas, and imaginations – through the media, through mediators - to distract us. And sadly, even though it is predictable, it works. Jesus said in Matthew 26:41 “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation …”

Episode 11 - Jesus said in Mark 4:24 … Take heed what ye hear: ... “Take” means be selective, regulate your hearing. Choose what you listen to. The word "media" is derived from the word "medium," meaning "middle" or "mediator.". The media is the thing between the source and the object. The Mass Media of this World is after your soul. BUT … 1 Timothy 2:5 says “For there is one God, and one mediator...

Episode 10 - There is nothing on earth as powerful as the human will. The reason it is so powerful, is that God himself has chosen not to control it. The will controls the destiny of man. God’s plan is to use the will of man to fulfill His Will on the earth. The problem is, a will gives you the power to choose, even against the Will of God. But there are limits …

Episode 09 - A critical part of the pursuit of faith is to create space between the things of the flesh that trigger you and your ability to become conscious in that moment and thus make a conscious decision. If you can make a conscious decision to be present, you've got a shot at choosing something that will help you. But it is not easy, in fact the Apostle Paul noted his struggles with this, say...

Episode 08 - Emotions are feelings we have tied to past events. Our feelings inform our thoughts and thus guides our lives. Feelings in and of themselves are neither good nor evil. They can be enjoyable and wonderful, but they can also make us miserable and drive us to make choices we eventually regret. Feelings are unstable and unpredictable at times, so they need to be managed. This is part of w...

Episode 07 - Colossians 3:2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. Romans 8:5 Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. So, although we do not have control over every thought that comes into our mind, we do have control on what we set our min...

Episode 06 -  To live in God’s perfect Will you must continually renew your mind with the Word of God.  There is no other way to live a victorious life. Romans 8:29 says “For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.” When we are born of the Spirit, we are to conform to the image of God’...
