Tribe Church

Our Father wants to see us in breakthrough and victory. It doesn’t mean that everything will be easy and trials won’t happen. When those moments come it’s so vital to respond by speaking these words to yourself: “This is the day that the Lord has made.…” Seeing this day, whatever day that is, as the day the Lord made, will raise us up to be exactly where and who we need to be in that moment. And u...

The Lord most often speaks in a still, small voice. If we continually give Him our ear and lean in to hear the whisper of His voice, even in the noise and chaos around us, we can enter into the faith-rest life He has promised.

Breakthrough: What does that mean and what does it look like? It’s important to perceive breakthrough not as an event, but as a process. It is first internal, then external. The right perception will cause a shift within and create the stability and root that needs to go deep in order for us to experience all we are designed to experience.

An “eve” of something is the day or moment of time before a significant event takes place. The word of the Lord to us is that we are on the eve of breakthrough. As Tribe, as a family, we are leaning into this word. We receive it as an intentional promise from Him and have an extreme anticipation of His goodness to come. 

“A thrill of hope” is not just a phrase from a Christmas song. It’s about a supernatural hope that comes from the face to face presence of God, an announcement that Christ lives within us and our life can be filled with nothing but a joy-filled expectation for good.

If we’re honest, sometimes it’s not easy to be thankful in everything. It seems so simple, but even when life is tough, there is great significance in going back to rehearse and give thanks for the breakthroughs and blessings in our lives. If we can perceive it, gratitude is the key that unlocks the gateway to manifesting the goodness of the Lord.

The knowledge of the Lord is embedded in every human heart, and He has made His wonderful attributes easily perceived. (See Romans 1). It is vital to remember that what we perceive is what we think about and what we think about is what we believe, and what we believe, we speak. We are creators, and what we perceive and speak, creates and shapes the world around us.

If we can perceive it, today is a new day. In order for us to move into this new day, we have to be willing to leave tradition, lose sight of the shore and follow Abba into something that is brand new, life-giving and power-filled. Something that will testify to generations to come that we went after the One Thing with our whole hearts and didn’t sell out to tradition, but sold out to The Lord.

There is something within us that hungers for more than what has been defined by church tradition. Holy Spirit is beckoning us to step out of the typical norm and allow ourselves to be reborn again…a reimagining and rebirthing of what we are meant to look like. This is more than a shift, it is saying yes to the call of the Lord to start a movement.

In the Sabbatismos lifestyle, there is a promise of rest that is for us today, every day. This promise is an invitation to keep and celebrate Abba’s rest and show us what is attainable because of the living Christ within. This rest brings a re-wilding, re-changing, re-introduction into the reality of who we were designed to be.

There is a Sabbath rest that is so much deeper than just a day. It’s the rest that Yahweh took on the 7th day of creation, a Sabbatismos - celebrating the completed work of perfection. So it should be for us, to keep a Sabbatismos lifestyle as the foundation of who we are as His sons and daughters. Not settling for just a day, but a full and complete rest, in every day and in everything. 

The will and intent of our Father is for His Kingdom plan to be released into the earth. When the mind is renewed (Romans 12:2), the person is renewed, and the atmosphere around us is changed. This brings heaven to earth.

A people of chara (joy) bring heaven to earth because they carry the presence of the Lord. This deep, inner abiding and rejoicing joy comes directly from His presence, found through communion with Him.

“A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways.” James 1:8 (KJV). The earth needs sons and daughters to be true believers who will take every thought - the bad and the good, negative and positive - and hold them captive to the authority of the mind of Christ. It will create a consistency within that enables us to always live in deep and inner abiding rejoicing.

The emotional pursuit or expectation of happiness can cause us to miss the supernatural joy we were designed to have in every circumstance we face. The original Greek Biblical word for joy is “chara” (pronounced har-ah), which means: “A deep and inner abiding rejoicing.” This joy lives, moves, and has its being within us. It is a joy that is unspeakable and full of His goodness. This joy knows tha...

We are spirit beings living in a natural body. When we face the circumstances of life, we have to go to this checkpoint within ourselves and ask, “Is my mindset focused on hope and victory?” This reminds our natural man that we have the mind of Christ and no matter what we are dealing with, we face that circumstance with hope (a joy-filled expectation for good), knowing that at the end there will...

Abba does not want us to be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of our mind. When our mind is renewed, we are coming into agreement with the mind of Christ, so that we are able to prove the reality of the heavenly realm here on this earth, not one day, but today.

I Corinthians 2:16 tells us that we have the mind of Christ. It is not reserved just for the preacher or theologian, or the person who seems to have it all together, but for those who feel lost, broken, sick, depressed or less than; for those who are not living in abundance or have debt that they fear can’t be recovered…it is for those who suffer lack in any form. Do not believe anything other tha...

For too long, we have allowed ourselves to believe that it’s acceptable for our cup to be half-full and that “almost” is good enough. Our cup was meant to be full and running over! Yahweh is awakening us to actually believe that blessing in all things was reserved for His sons and daughters, and we were created to live a life of abundance. This is the promise of the Scriptures, and it brings glory...

We were designed for something far greater than what we have ever comprehended. It may seem too simple to believe, but your purpose for being on this earth is to bring Abba’s heavenly reality into your earthly reality. Your mission is to manifest His glory so that the knowledge of His goodness floods this earth like the waters cover the sea. This does not happen through the religious system or pol...

When Jesus walked this earth, He would often turn aside, alone, to pray and align Himself with His Father. His example shows us a much deeper revelation of what prayer actually should be. It is meant to be communication between Creator and creation, the silencing of any voice and opinion other than our Father’s, allowing Him and Him alone to remind us who we are so that we can align ourselves with...

Holy Spirit within us is a transformer of the way we see and think, the way we operate and make decisions, and the way we find peace and joy. In this transforming power, He reveals Abba’s will to us, calling us to something higher than ourselves. He enables us to come into agreement with what Abba has spoken and we can be confident that He will see it through.

Our Father loved the cosmos so much that He sent His only Son to save it. A love like that cannot be boxed up or restrained or bound by the rules and regulations of religion, for it is only the kindness and goodness of God expressed through us that will show others the authentic presence of our loving Father.

There is a supernatural exchange that takes place when we worship. As we honor the environment of worship and minister to the Lord, we become aligned with who He is, and what He is speaking over us. Everything He wants to accomplish through and for us is done by way of worship.

In every situation, every battle and every storm, in the good times and the bad - He is “I AM" and it shall come to pass. There will be trials, but the One who is above it all is with you. It will not end in trial but in glory. It will come to pass.
