Jesus taught us that the greatest commandment is to love God with all of our heart, mind, soul, and strength. The second is like it: love our neighbor as ourselves. Jesus teaches that to love Him, is to keep His commandments no matter what. Jesus also teaches that loving others practically means to treat them the way we would like to be treated. This is foundational in our two fold ministry as we equip saints and minister to the lost. The kingdom of God has arrived, and it first manifests itself to us through love. We are supernaturally anchored by the Father’s pure love for us and our Holy Spirit empowered love for Him. It is our mission to both teach and model this principle.

Loving God and loving other people is the foundation by which we serve one another. Jesus says, “I am among you as one who serves.” King Jesus set that example for us, His disciples. We were made for more than faithful Sunday service and midweek community groups. We were set aside for more than working out our personal holiness. As disciples and ambassadors of Christ, through the guidance and anointing of the Holy Spirit, we have a duty to serve God and serve one another. It is with great joy that we seek to model and teach this principle.

Consider these words from Jesus to us: Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

Luke 10:19

This is sadly a discarded and forgotten concept among our brethren today. It is the reason sickness,demonic bondage, poverty, and even death reign unchallenged in our communities. Jesus teaches us that the real reason for rejoicing is because we have been made citizens of the kingdom and children of the Most High God. However,that teaching is not to minimize the authority, promises, grace, gifts, and spiritual blessings freely given to us so that we may reign in this life as children of God!

“For if by the one man's offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.”

Romans 5:17

While Jesus walked the earth, He modeled for us disciples what it looks like to reign in subjection to the will of the Father. We hunger to reignite saints with this passion as we teach and model this principle.
