God is not stingy with His blessings, but He will not bless you unless your life is clear in every aspect. Many people desire God's blessings, but do not understand why they are not getting them. Pastor Hampton, by God's help, gives the solution to this dilemma. Before you will be blessed God, you must prepare for the blessing. You must be willing to reason with God, and be honest and humble enough to acknowledge and deal sufficiently with anything He shows you. Once you clear the way, God will pour out His blessings upon you, as He has been desiring to do.

There is notion in the atmosphere that would have you to believe that God and His way of life is oppressive and tyrannical. Many today have bought into this false narrative and have become turned off to God and his religion without substantive cause. In today's episode Pastor Hampton beautifully advances to us that God’s nature is not negative, destructive, or damning, but rather the polar opposite. He is stimulated by extending mercy. Even when God pronounces his judgement it’s always out of love, and never motivated by revenge. Thank God for his unmerited, undeserved, and under appreciated mercy that He extends to all his human children on a daily basis.

We are living in a time of violent spiritual warfare. Our foe is aggressive, and so are all of his forces. Through his aggression, and the lack of aggression of those who claim to be God's people, this entire world is under the devil's sway. He has taken the world and a great portion of the church through his violence, and it is only through a greater violence and aggression that will we take it back! Only through spiritual aggressiveness can we be prepared for the devil's aggression. Without this violent mentality, we will struggle just to keep what we have instead of invading the enemy's territory. But with this aggressive attitude, be it fully known that we will make the devil back up! He can only hold up under the consistent onslaught of a divine aggression for so long before he breaks!

Any spiritual failure or fall that has taken place occurred because the devil was given a space to work; he was allowed to get started. Somewhere an thought was entertained, a feeling was savored, or conversation, started by the devil, was continued. The devil can cause no destructive end if there is no place to start. Pastor Hampton admonished the saints with this word from heaven, realizing that giving no place to the devil is the only way that will overcome all of his pitfalls and tricks! We must cast down the thoughts and suggestions that the devil brings immediately! Let us all give very earnest heed to the things that were spoken by the servant of God, because if you give the devil an inch, he will take a mile.

We are living an a world full of theories. Thousands of ideas around salvation are hovering around in the spiritual atmosphere, and lodge themselves in the minds of people. The test of whether or not an individual has an authentic salvation experience or a counterfeit salvation experience is not whether or not you can make sense of what you believe theoretically, but rather possessing the honesty to ask yourself “does my current experience produce freedom indeed”, and “have I experienced power over the bondage of sin”. God help us to lay hold on if we haven’t yet, and fight to maintain with intensity if we have, our genuine, productive, and tangibly noticeable, gospel experience with Christ.

Only those who give the time and effort to dig deep will withstand the storms and floods. Any spiritual building that has fallen fell because of a lack of digging deep. Digging deep takes strenuous effort and time; it is not something that can be done in a busy or lazy lifestyle. Its outward manifestations are the result of work done behind closed doors. May God help every one of us to receive the burden and experience of this message from heaven! Without it, when the winds and rains, or the floods (direct attacks from the enemy) come, our spiritual house will fall flat.

The Christian course is way of sacrifice. The world has a course that is diametrically opposed to real Christianity, and has actually presented a comfortable and counterfeit version of Christianity void of real sacrifice. The God of this world has so blinded the minds of humanity, to believe that the Christian experience is passive, weak, easy-going, comfortable on the flesh, and customizable to your own understanding. God through His instrument, Bro. Hampton in today’s episode plainly shows us that this is not the case and details the sacrifice of the real Christian experience.

It is our responsibility to present the kingdom of God to the world. The separation between the kingdom of God and anything else is the power of God. The kingdom of God and power are inseparable! Therefore the kingdom cannot be delivered to the world by just anyone. Anybody is capable of presenting knowledge or a convincing argument, but in order to effectively present the kingdom of God, you must have enough in your soul to overpower the opposing kingdom. The question now presents itself: do you enough power in your soul to impart the power of kingdom to the world? May we all honestly examine ourselves in light of this message!
