Revive Church with Pastor Todd Mozingo

With each message brought to us through Pastor Todd and our other pastors, only the Holy Spirit really knows who the message is for. So is the message today as Pastor Todd preaches through Psalm 91, often called the Psalm of protection. Everyone has had experiences in their lives where they felt exposed or at risk leading to feelings of weakness, fear and powerlessness. Clearly the Psalmist writin...

What is the abundant or prosperous life? What does scripture mean by riches? Is there a difference between what this world defines as prosperity and how prosperity is defined in the Spirit world? How is success related to prosperity in the Kingdom of God? Does God have an opinion about being rich or poor? Is there instruction in the scriptures to people who are rich in this world? Can people becom...

Today Pastor Todd helps us to focus on the next things that came about from Pentecost. We often celebrate Pentecost as a single event but Pastor Todd reveals that it was just the beginning, a kick off, for a continuing move of God. The people were continuing in awe at the things they were witnessing day after day, week after week. The signs and wonders from the Holy Spirit were continuing to manif...

Pastor Massey teaches us today on the importance of giving up. In Romans 12:1 it says that we should present ourselves as a living sacrifice. This seems like an oxymoron or a contradiction. How can we be living and dead at the same time? It doesn't say 'present your bodies to a sacrifice.' It says to present ourselves to a living death. So much of our efforts lead to stress and anxiety. Yet if we...

Our Pastor Kimo, elder and leader of our inner healing ministry, is on deck today. Pastor Kimo reminds us today of 1 Corinthians 13. If we do all things in ministry, in family, in work, in the world but without love we are nothing because God is love. He proceeds to help us understand what love really means and it may not be what we think. When God created Adam and Eve He created them in His image...

Knowing someone and knowing about someone are two different things. Having things known about you and being known are two different things. There are many things that we know about Jesus but do we really know him? How can we know that Jesus is the "bread of life" if we don't know what it means to depend on Him every day? Can we know that Jesus is the light of the world if we don't know the darknes...

As of this post, Pentecost is coming up this Sunday. To prepare us all for this we are sharing Pastor Todd's message from this time last year. We know that many people have different ideas about the importance of Pentecost for the Christian. For some it is just the birthday of the Church. For others it is the Day that the Holy Spirit came in power. For others it is the beginning of the Apostolic a...

In these times there are many things clamoring to make us afraid of what could possibly come our way. There are certain things in our life that we are believing that are a lie that will cause us to fear. Many times this fear is based on a spiritual influence in our lives. Pastor Todd reminds us from 2 Timothy 1:7 that God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love and discipline. There i...

Today we have the honor of hearing from Peter Camacho, Revive's Online Pastor. Many people from around the world view Revive's services online. Peter actively connects with viewers online helping them feel a part of the Revive church community. He prays with people, encourages them, speaks words from the Lord to this online community. Perhaps this is you. Pastor Pete speaks today about directed fa...

The Greek word for self-control means "The virtue of one who masters desires and passions". Pastor Todd teaches today on the fruit of the Spirit called "self-control". There is always a trigger that ignites in us the need for self-control. The joy of the fruit of self-control is that it is not me fighting to be in control of my passions. It is the Holy Spirit demonstrating that circumstances of li...

We have Pastor Massey on deck today as he asks the question, "Who can abide?" Who can abide in the tent of the Lord? From the life of David in Psalm 15, he tells us the answer to that question. Pastor Massey shares many of difficulties and distractions David went through in his life. David's experience with Bathsheba happened when he was distracted from his role as a King who was supposed to lead...

Have you ever used the "fleece" method to confirm if a word was from the Lord or not? This is not an uncommon practice because they read the scripture and it sounds like God approved it. But it doesn't actually say that. What if Gideon's fleecing requests mean something else? What if the laying out of the fleece is actually a demonstration of a lack of faith? Is the fleece actually a way of testin...

Today Pastor Todd takes a page from the story of Jesus' youth. He looks at the event where Jesus' parents didn’t know where he was for 3 days. If you are a parent you can understand how terrifying this experience could be. For these days they were out of communication with Him, out of fellowship with Him. This is a time to ask ourselves if we have been out of communication with Him, out of fellows...

Are you tired of dealing with what you are dealing with? Are you at a place where "enough is enough"? Are you tired of fighting what seems like a never-ending battle? Pastor Todd takes us through the Word of God to show how often God's people can find themselves pushed to their limit. He explains the power of perseverance, when you keep fighting even though you are tired and really want to give up...

In a series on the fundamentals of the Christian faith, Pastor Todd shares with us today on sharing our faith, evangelism. He believes that the reason why most Christians don't share their faith with others is that they don't know how. He looks at the common phrases used among Christians when sharing their faith that don’t really have a strong Biblical foundation. Then he proceeds to explain the g...

Today we have the honor of hearing one of our Elders and the leader of our Inner Healing ministry, Kimo Bethea. He will be sharing with us about the reasons we may not have experienced healing yet. Blockages can prevent our healing. From the Word of God, he shows that significant blockages may be hiding in our belief systems. Be sure to listen to the end for some important information about Pastor...

Are you hungry? How is your appetite? Pastor Todd looks at the experience of the people of Israel in the wilderness. God provides manna for them according to each person's appetite. Those with a greater appetite were satisfied with sufficient portions and those with lesser appetites were likewise satisfied according to their appetite. God provides according to our appetites. As we grow in our appe...

Pastor Todd says, "I believe that scripture evidences that we are supposed to be living very exciting lives." What does he mean by that? "We should be living dynamic encounters with divine things. We are having such experiences with God that are a joy and a blast." He shares with us many stories of how the Holy Spirit came on people "in power" for specific tasks that He has called them to. This sa...

Pastor Todd talks to us today about maturing in our faith and our calling with God. In Romans 8:28-30, Paul writes that "these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called He called He also justified, and these whom he justified He also glorified." Is it possible, though, that our circumstances don't look very much like we are predestined and called and justified and glorified? Ar...

Isaiah 53 tells us that the Messiah will be a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. Tears are not mentioned here but based on our own experience we have to know that this means tears. Jesus comes to this earth and we know he is fully divine. And we know that he is fully human and he walks this earth with both of those things, sorrow and grief. That's one of the most perplexing things to consid...

As Christians we celebrate Resurrection Sunday. Some call it Easter. We are celebrating Jesus' resurrection from the dead after He was crucified and paid the price for our sins. If we believe this then He promises that we will have eternal life. Even more so, we get to experience our own resurrection now in this life. How is that possible since we have not died yet. Pastor Todd teaches here about...

Today we have Part 3 in a 3 part series on the Gift of Tongues. The gift of tongues has been very controversial for over a century among Christians. Some of that has been due to tradition and "the way that we have always done thiings". For others it is a matter of fear or discomfort or lack of experience. Continuing today, Pastor Todd is going to walk us through the Word of God only, not tradition...

This message today concerns churches across the United States who have misunderstood the government attempts to limit church involvement in the politics of our nation. He discusses the Johnson Amendment to the IRS tax code and its impact on church's tax exempt status as 501c3 organizations. It may not mean what you think that it does. There is so much misunderstanding about this that many churches...

Pastor Todd teaches us today from his series, "The Old is the New". In this series he shows us a new reality about the relationship of the Old Testament to the New. Just as Jesus would tell parables, stories to explain spiritual realities, the Old Testament can be seen as stories to reveal New Testament spiritual truths and realities. For example, in Luke 24:27, the scripture says "Then beginning...

Today we have Part 2 in a 3 part series on the Gift of Tongues. The gift of tongues has been very controversial for over century among Christians. Some of that has been due to tradition and "the way that we have always done this". For others it is a matter of fear or discomfort or lack of experience. Continuing today, Pastor Todd is going to walk us through the Word of God only, not tradition or e...
