Our Father's Heart

What we see has the potential to deceive us and make us question what God has said. We go all the way back to the garden to see this truth demonstrated with Eve and Adam, Noah, Abraham and Sarah, Hagar, Isaac, Joseph and it continues to this present day with all of us. We walk by faith, not by sight. Please visit Our Father's Heart for more information and if you would like to support our eff...

Every tree is known by its fruit. The fruit we manifest comes from the reservoir within us. The words of our mouth, our actions, our behavior, our tone, our affections, our attention, our focus, our thoughts, our pre-occupations are our hidden treasures and when they are revealed show the present state of our heart. Please visit Our Father's Heart for more information and if you would like to...

Looking at the testimony of Elijah and how he confronted Ahab, the 450 prophets of Baal, and did a work with the Lord to turn the hearts of the people to God again. Yet, everyone fears something... even Elijah, who ran from the words of a woman named Jezebel.  God uses that to confront Elijah on things Elijah must deal with, within himself.  So while God is using us to do His will, in the midst of...

The following is the 2nd part of the mini-series entitled, The Life of Jesus Christ , in which we will focus on His true identity. The true identity is only a mystery to those that are not his disciples, that are walking in their own understanding and their own carnality, holding to traditions of men rather than the Word of God as the scriptures have said.  The mystery may only be in understanding...

The following mini-series (2 parts) entitled, The Life of Jesus Christ , will focus on two important aspects: His teachings and His true identity. In this first part, we take a short bit of time to review what we have gone over in previous teachings to set the stage for a focused view on the teachings of Jesus Christ, all the while analyzing the life of Jesus Christ. So get your bible out and stud...

It was said of Enoch that he walked with God for 300 years. God took him because he pleased God. The one who walks with God is afforded uncommon favor. We see this in the lives of Noah, Abraham, Sarah, Moses, and any and all who trust in the Lord and walk by faith, always looking unto Jesus because all the unfulfilled promises are fulfilled in Him. Please visit Our Father's Heart for more inf...

In this lesson, we review and analyze how despicable acts of the saints of old caused relationship issues.  When someone has committed offenses (both unwilling and purposeful), many times the difficulty is not in forgiving a person in the Lord, rather it’s trusting that person again.  Trust issues are a consequence of previous poor behavior.  When trust is broken, it's very difficult to regai...

We continue teaching on Divine Familial Responsibility in our marriages with this second part that focuses on the divine responsibility for women. Wives are extremely important in the marriage and immensely valuable in the relationship when she fulfills her God-ordained role in the marriage and the family. The importance of the wife is clearly and fantastically described in Proverbs 31 as the virt...

Pulling from the archives in 2020, I found this teaching that I thought would be beneficial for singles who want to be married, for those engaged about to be married, and for those that are recently married. In fact, it should be a blessing to anyone whose heart wants to hear what the Lord has to say. Be blessed in hearing, but more so in the doing of what is man's divine familial responsibil...

Man, both male and female, fell in sin. They were unable to walk with Him and were separated from Him due to their disobedience. All mankind through the sin of Adam, being both male and female, all died because they all sinned. The light that we once walked in is gone from us… and without Him who is light, we walk in darkness and love the darkness.  Hence, the image of God has been marred in man....

We begin this podcast by looking at the revelation found in 1 Samuel 16:6-7 and the difference between how man sees and judges and how God sees and judges. Beware of the base and fallen inclination of man. We should not be so quick to judge, especially before the time, because what may not be apparent presently, may actually be found on the day of the Lord.  For good and for evil, the deception is...

Contrary to carnal public opinion, the love of God is demanding of us... and yet it is pure.  He truly is a jealous God and an all-consuming fire. To think otherwise is to be ignorant of the ferocious love that He has for you.  The love of God will either melt your pride, so that He can mold you into the image He has called you to, or consume you. You will either surrender yourself into His love o...

The meaning of faith, from Old Covenant to New Covenant, is unchanged. Jesus said, "Whoever comes to Me, and hears My sayings and does them , I will show you whom he is like: He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock . " Dig deep by building your life on the foundation of God's word.  Commit yourself to the principle of obedience. When you h...

We begin this episode by talking about the meaning of foreshadowing and how we have experienced that in notable books or movies. However, from the beginning of creation, the originator of foreshadowing was our Creator, Jesus. We hone in on biblical elements of the Spirit, the water, and the blood that have progressively and repeatedly been used to bear witness in the earth (1 Jn 5:8) from Old Cove...

This episode is brought to you courtesy of my experiences in 2020 when I heard from the Lord in regards to the pandemic of fear that was running rampant in America and throughout the world. Two years later, it is as applicable today as it was back then. I hope and pray that you hear His voice now as loudly and clearly as I heard Him then and that you determine within your heart to trust in Him and...

Originally, today's episode was not going to be. I thought initially to have a break in the podcast this week, but then I reconsidered and thought it might be a good time to formally introduce myself and give a verbal summary and description of what our podcast is about, what we have shared thus far, and what we're looking forward to in the future. I also wanted to take the opportunity t...

Now we come to the conclusion of this series with my holiday take. Up to this point, I simply wanted to share testimony from others who have decided to walk differently, against the tide of the mainstream. I also wanted to share historical information that I simply believe needs to be taken into consideration when you are going before the Lord in regards to participating in these holidays, specifi...

This podcast focuses on Easter, the other sacred golden cow of holidays. Nearly all of Christianity worldwide celebrates Easter. If you ever wondered how do bunny rabbits come to lay eggs and why does Easter always seems to be around the time of a Jewish feast known as Passover or were curious to know the roots and origins of Easter this is the podcast to listen to. We will also find the Catholic...

This podcast touches the sacred golden cow of all holidays, Christmas. Nearly all of Christianity worldwide celebrates this holiday in some fashion. We will look into the roots and origins that go back further than 2000 years ago when Christ was born in the 1st century. Yes, it goes back, even before Christ was born, to a god named Mithra worshiped in the Persian empire. We will also see the Catho...

Did you ever consider or wonder why are there some Christians that refuse to have anything to do with Halloween, even if it is called "trunk or treat"? If you are interested at all in the origins and roots of Halloween, then this is probably the podcast for you to get your feet wet and maybe just get into the 3 feet deep part of the pool. We'll look into the connection between Scott...

Now that the holidays are over, and a New Year has begun, we're going to begin a 5 part series covering the holidays. We begin this episode sharing our journey in regards to participating or not participating in certain holidays and what experiences and what scriptures in the Word brought us to those decisions. You also get to hear from my wife and my eldest daughter regarding their journey i...

Are you ready to take the risk, as so many of our forefathers in the faith have done from Old to New Covenant? All of them were just because they learned to live by faith in the midst of their imperfect circumstances and their fallen state of living (Hab 2:4, Rom 1:17, Gal 3:11, Heb 10:38). The just shall live by faith. Please visit Our Father's Heart for more information and if you would lik...

From Genesis chapter 3 onward, we have all lived in a less than ideal situation, not because we do not live in a state of existence where everything God made was “good” and “very good”, or because we are not living in that glorious paradise that only two people had come to know, or because we lost the responsibility God had given us for each other and the earth… but simply because we lost fellowsh...

In this episode, we look at the difference between responsibility and purpose. We sometimes interchange those terms, but in the perspective of this teaching, we see how in this life being responsible in the little things leads us to attain the eternal purpose for which we have been apprehended by Christ Jesus our Lord and Creator. Purpose is an object to be reached, a goal, an aim, the ideal, or a...

In this episode, we look into the importance of the name. In His name, we come to understand immediately His purpose when we understand the meaning of His name. We also see how the name is tied to water baptism unto death. We also see how His name is tied to the gift of God, the blessing of Abraham, the promise of the Father unto life. And lastly, the purpose for the revealing of that name in the...
