Jentezen Franklin Podcast

What is your overall outlook on life? Are you an optimist or a pessimist? Do you tend to see silver linings, or do you mostly see gray skies and rain? Think about this: God spoke the world into creation, then He created man in His image... and gave him the power to speak! What does that mean for you and me? God says in Isaiah, He creates the fruit of our lips. The words we say affect our world. In this message with Pastor Jentezen Franklin, you’ll see how the fastest way to change your life is to change your words.   Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. -Hebrews 10:23

The heat of the summer brings house flies, gnats, and mosquitos. Where we live in Georgia, if you don’t take them on early and come up with a strategy to protect your home, they’ll overtake you! They take over your house, your yard and before you know it, they are everywhere. Scripture says sin is like a fly defiling something that is precious. Are we as careful to protect our heart against sin as we are protecting our home against insects? In this message, Pastor Jentezen Franklin unpacks the importance of being intentional about protecting ourselves against that which wants to defile us...protecting ourselves against sin.

How opposed are you in your life right now? Sometimes it seems just when we’re trying to grow in our faith or calling, everything is stacked against us. We ask God over and over to clear the obstacles and make the path ahead smooth. But what if the hardship you’re experiencing now is only preparing you for the growth you’re seeking? In this message Pastor Jentezen Franklin shows us that the amount of opposition we face is directly proportional to the size of our calling. If you’ve faced unimaginable darkness and opposition in your life, take heart—God is moving on your behalf.

Growing up in church I remember hearing the song “I’ll fly away” at least twelve thousand times. The funny thing was, it always sounded so dreary. Who wants to sing about dying? Then one day I just read the lyrics, and I got it! Back in 1929 Albert E. Brumley got a glimpse of what awaited him on the other side of this life and wrote this famous hymn, which has been renewing hope in people since the depression era. If you fear death, the Gospel is even better news than you think. This week Pastor Jentezen Franklin helps us develop a more biblical picture of life after life.

Covenant is an interesting word. The Hebrew word for covenant literally means to cut, or to shed blood. A covenant in the biblical sense means blood has been shed by one or both parties in pledge to the other. In our current culture, promises are often taken lightly. But when we fully understand the power of the covenant we have in Christ, it is nothing short of life-changing. It was not a promise made in haste, but a new and final blood covenant that would cover all of humanity. This week, Pastor Jentezen Franklin unlocks the secrets of the covenant for those who are willing to enter in.

You see them everywhere. It’s usually a small house on the side of the road with a sign that says Psychic Readings. Or maybe you come across an ouija board or tarot cards at a garage sale. Our tendency is to chuckle and roll our eyes, but the occult is no laughing matter. In fact, if you believe scripture then you know there are indeed people who are empowered by evil with dark powers. In this message, Pastor Jentezen Franklin will share the story of one of God’s chosen who turned to witchcraft out of desperation. As you’ll soon learn, it’s a sobering story. But take heart—Jesus entered the darkness (death) and came out alive, so that you and I can enter the light!

The enemy has no allies. He attacks his own just as he attacks those who are striving to live for God. The difference is that you and I, as children of God, have access to help! In these unprecedented times, we are all fighting battles. Some of you are facing fear and uncertainty that you’ve never known, and we cannot stay silent and pretend everything is OK. As you’ll learn in this message, silence is a sin in the “city.” When you’re in the “city of God” all you have to do is raise your voice and the Rescuer will come running. Before you run from God, run to Him!

There are seasons in our life when God can’t easily be seen. But even when you can’t see Him, when you can’t feel Him, when the night is dark and it seems like there’s no way out of the situation, He is working! Jesus said, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28).
