Life Journeys
God's purpose for life's trials can bring us into our finest hour. Pastor Hartikka has spent over 40 years seeking to make sense out of the hard times. The trial is never about the trial. The Christian life is a journey that leads us to be the best that God has in store for us. Hard times are the canvas upon which He paints a life purpose of victory.

Overcoming The Coming U.S. Captivity 24.08.2024 15:26
Liberty’s greatest quality is loving our enemies without which we’ve already lost our freedom. We will be successfully overcome by the false liberty that socialism promises, for freedom is determined by who rules and supplies us. Until we learn that heaven rules in the affairs of men, we will be captives. Listen to the short podcast, “Overcoming The Coming U.S. Captivity” & find your favorite...
Your Destiny, Not Your Defeat 21.08.2024 14:05
The measure of a man’s life is not what he has gained but what he’s given up for Christ. Don’t worry about being worthy of this world's values only to be its slave. In Christ, the world is not worthy of you. Nothing’s wrong with your faith when the world is closing you in. Your losses are a path to God’s power. Listen to the short podcast, “Your Destiny, Not Your Defeat” & find your favorite s...
Can My Faith Really Overcome Fear 17.08.2024 15:02
Faith doesn’t just believe in God; it stops believing in darkness more than in God. It ceases to believe in anything else as our source of well-being. If I am living in fear, I am living with another as my master. I may seek to calm the storm. But total victory calms my soul through faith as the storm rages. Listen to the short podcast, “Can My Faith Really Overcome Fear ” & find your favori...
Don’t Let Your Heart Be Troubled 14.08.2024 13:57
We’re not created to struggle with our egos, feeling like a failure all our lives! If we live afraid, we’ve given up the call to let God be our Lord and master. May we say, “I will not change my heart of love, no matter how dark the world, nor succumb to fear no matter what powers try to manipulate my soul.” Listen to the short podcast, “Don’t Let Your Heart Be Troubled” & find your favorite s...
Governed by God or Controlled by Men 10.08.2024 15:48
You’re not here to be manipulated and controlled by men and nations. You’re on this earth to manifest the reign of God. Christ's resurrection life is at work towards you! Just as the fruit we bear is the fruit of Jesus's life coming forth, so is every answer to prayer Jesus's life coming forth through you. Listen to the short podcast, “Governed by God or Controlled by Men” & find your favorite...
Answered Prayer Is Jesus Living In Us 07.08.2024 13:17
Genuine fruit bearing is a sign of impending answered prayer! You have been chosen by God for this. It's about Him changing us, not us changing ourselves. Keep your eyes on who Christ is, not on yourself and who you are not. Answered prayer is an extension of what Christ has done in you. Listen to the short podcast, “Answered Prayer Is Jesus Living In Us” & find your favorite streaming app for...
Finding Faith That Always Works 03.08.2024 13:11
It's easier to believe for something when we are not more desperate for it then we are for God. Believing for finances is easier when we know that Jesus is all we need, and we trust in him more than in money. Surrender to Him releases the touch of God back into our lives so his voice can be heard again. Listen to the short podcast, “Finding Faith That Always Works” & find your favorite streami...
Urgent - Get Ready To Love Like Jesus 31.07.2024 15:19
No president will restore what sin has brought to the ground of America's moral overthrow. It's going to take God to establish families: fathers, mothers and children nurtured to know who they are in holy love. It’s time to learn how to draw near and let the presence of God lift us to a higher plain. Listen to the short podcast, “Urgent - Get Ready To Love Like Jesus” & find your favorite stre...
Live Your Eternal Identity & Overwhelm Your Fear 27.07.2024 15:27
One of the reasons we struggle with the threats of this life is too much focus on our existence in this world instead of on the world to come; and we’re too aware of our enemies and not nearly aware enough of God’s presence. But divinely inspired identity carries great weight in overcoming our pain. Listen to the short podcast, “Live Your Eternal Identity & Overwhelm Fear” & find your favo...
The Life Changing Journey 24.07.2024 14:00
I sought peace but didn’t find it until love taught me what to be. Faith roamed relentlessly in the night until love pointed the way. No greater, purer motive can a man have to find faith and peace than to love his wife and family. There’s no greater restitution than love. It’s God’s journey of being set apart. Listen to the short podcast, “The Life Changing Journey” & find your favorite str...
When Your Heart Struggles To Believe 20.07.2024 12:55
On the day I wrestled with fear, He said, "Is not God’s word greater than the word of men and devils? Is there anyone greater than He from which you could find truth? He is your Creator. He is existence. He is yours, and you are His. Nothing shall prevent God from accomplishing His word towards you." Listen to the short podcast, “When Your Heart Struggles To Believe” & find your favorite stre...
We’ve Lost Our Primary Life Focus In America 17.07.2024 15:08
There's nothing like the intimacy of soul that lives in true unity as an expression of love no matter what. It nurtures kids and brings wholeness like no other force on earth. Learning to live in marriage as one person helps grasp how to live as one with Christ, for it is an example of our unity with Him. Listen to the short podcast, “We’ve Lost Our Primary Life Focus In America” at https://bit.ly...
Power Over Guilt & Stress 13.07.2024 14:17
Condemnation lets emotions define your reality. Your emotions are not God. Your faith is your mirror now. That's how you see who you are. Your memories and shame don't define you to God. What matters is not the past but that you’re finally overcoming. Faith is about Jesus's history being yours now. Listen to the short podcast, “Power Over Guilt & Stress” at https://bit.ly/m/Life-Journeys
Your Purpose When Life’s Not Fair 10.07.2024 14:00
My highest good for you is to live Christ no matter what injustice arises. When we demand our rights, we cease demanding of ourselves to be true to why we exist. We must live by our responsibilities, not our rights. Doing good is built on the foundation of the highest good of another. That's morality and love.
Learning To Live Your Real Life 06.07.2024 15:01
Fears that attempt to cause pain are utterly vanquished by the timeless reality of faith in God. How our body feels, where our finances lay, and what our fleeting emotions trigger have no bearing on our eternally reality. How dare we defy what is eternal truth by what is about to vanish like the morning mist. Listen to the short podcast, “Learning To Live Your Real Life” at https://bit.ly/m/Life-J...
Our Infinite Reality 03.07.2024 15:13
To limit reality to our ability to perceive intellectually and scientifically greatly limits life. Eternal reality says that who I am, and my future are about who Jesus is in me. Life’s ups and downs won’t define me or my moral reality. God is near the brokenhearted and eases the crushed soul. Listen to the 15 minute podcast, “Our Infinite Reality” at https://bit.ly/m/Life-Journeys
Live Your Supernatural Identity 29.06.2024 13:09
The more you’re aware of the power of your identity in Christ, the more you’re going to find God's power to live for Him. Your reward will be about what you’ve done with Christ in you, not what you've done with you in you. What good things you've done is not your hope. Christ in you is. Listen to the 12 minute podcast, “Live Your Supernatural Identity” at https://bit.ly/m/Life-Journeys
The Beauty of Christ In Me 26.06.2024 12:53
If you can be judged as guilty of the blood and body of Jesus, then you can be judged as worthy by the blood and body of Jesus by faith. Stop trusting more in your failures as a sign of defeat than you trust in Jesus's success as a sign of your sure victory. It’s time to live worthy of Him through faith alone.

Overcoming Your Greatest Threats 22.06.2024 14:54
After a time of suffering, God will perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. In the times of Satan’s sifting, God is perfecting you! You think you’re being brought low, but heaven is bringing you near! The liberty of living by the Spirit through faith is vital in the fire that refines the gold in your soul.

Faith That Never Fails 19.06.2024 14:30
Never let feelings be a source of faith or identity. Faith and self-defense are not compatible. A crash and burn doesn’t always mean you missed God! Use your faith for ease and comfort, and you'll get frustrated and quit. Use it to find the power of God's presence, and nothing will ever defeat you again!

An Identity That Overcomes Fear 15.06.2024 17:07
At our core, who we are determines how we govern our own lives and fears. It establishes our power to be and to thrive. Once we trade the world’s definition of identity for God’s, we learn the secret of overcoming the world and winning the battle of self-esteem. If we forget God, we’ll forget who we are. Listen to “An Identity That Overcomes Fear” at https://bit.ly/m/Life-Journeys where you will f...
A Life Beyond the Vanishing Point 08.06.2024 15:44
He said, “Don’t be afraid. You’re Mine!” Your identity is far beyond your pain, wins, and losses. You’re re-created in Christ into someone you can’t remake by yourself. Stop trusting in yourself alone to make the right choices. You are the choice of God. Who’s in you is greater than the whole world. Listen to “A Life Beyond the Vanishing Point” at https://bit.ly/m/Life-Journeys where you will find...
Gun-Control or Self-Control 05.06.2024 16:01
America is not in a political, gender, or border crisis. It’s in a godless crisis - a consequence crisis. If you want to change America, start by changing your life. If you call this your country, and you are broken hearted because you love it, learn to love God and live in His presence as your greatest treasure. Listen to “Gun-Control or Self-Control” at https://bit.ly/m/Life-Journeys where you w...
Living The Real You 01.06.2024 13:57
Get used to the fact that your standing is based on Jesus now, not you. Your peace is not about believing in yourself. It’s about believing in Jesus. Let the light shine on all your sins and then on Jesus and see which one is greater. Where sin abounded, grace did much more abound. That’s your real life.

Faith's Timeless Victory In Persistent Battle 29.05.2024 14:33
Faith pulls the timeless realities of heaven into our earthly battles and builds an immutable spirit in us that can stand its ground. After the long battle you're in has been settled, your testimony won't be what this world did to you, but what God did for you. Faith sees the eternal while you live in the temporal.
