Blessed Life Fellowship

Juli Suverkrup delivers a powerful faith-filled message about the need to contend for the salvation of our children, grown or small, and how to do it.  This biblical roadmap to contending for our children is a weapon of our warfare that Juli and her husband Mark have used with great effectiveness in their own family.  Let's contend for our children!  

There are many false concepts about money in the marketplace and the church.  This teaching unpacks several concepts that must form the foundation of one's financial and spiritual progress.  

What many people even in the Church don't realize is that most people are slaves to money.  And that's true whether they have a little or a lot.  But God wants to set us free from servitude to money, and He has a very effective method in helping us to do that.  Learn in this teaching the method God uses to test our faith, provide for us abundantly, and fund His Kingdom all at the same time.  

Did you know there's a spirit behind selfishness?  It's an idolatrous spirit called "mammon" that tries to take the place of God in people's hearts.  Learn in this teaching how this spirit operates, how to detect it, and how to overcome it.  

Most modern day Christians have a very incorrect view of the biblical concept of money and possessions.  God is not against His people having money; in fact, He's FOR it!  But with money comes responsibility.  This teaching elaborates on two tests of faith: the test of lack, and the test of abundance.  Learn in this teaching how to avoid lack and walk in the abundance of God.  

The Bible teaches that joy and peace are two fruits of the Spirit.  Yet many believers do not walk in perpetual joy.  They may experience it briefly during pleasant circumstances, and then have it quickly drain away when the pressures of life hit.  But there is a joy in the Lord that is not dependent on outward circumstances.  Find out in this teaching how to keep the joy of the Lord stoked in one's heart continually.  

Joy is such an important part of our walks with the Lord because Nehemiah 8:10 says that the joy one the Lord is our strength.  But joy can easily drain away when our spiritual lives are little more than keeping a list of rules.  But when it is lived by the Spirit in the revelation of God's grace, joy can be maintained even when life is hard.  Learn in this teaching how a proper understanding of grace can be your lifeline to God's joy.  

During times of disappointment and duress, is it really possible to find joy in our walks with the Lord?  Not only is it possible, but that's what God wants for His children.  Find out how to experience the peace of God and the joy of the Lord even when times are hard.   

Guest speaker Eric Burton of Groundbreaker International explains from a study of the Hebrew calendar and language what this season we are currently in means from a prophetic perspective: The year when God will connect all the pieces together!  Prepare to be enlighten and encouraged!      

This teaching is in honor of the life of Charlie Kirk, and contains many vital teaching points about what a life of purpose and Kingdom focus looks like.  Toward the end, Pastor Andy's daughter Hannah Miller adds some commentary of her own and closes out in prayer.  The times are shifting.  Are you ready to be a part of it?  This teaching will help get you ready.  

The Scriptures tell us to labor to enter the rest of God.  But what does it look like to enter the rest if you have to labor to get there?  Guess speaker Brandon Hemming of Simple Streets Ministries delivers a clarion call to action in learning to labor to enter the rest, and thus becoming more useful to the Master.  

In this final teaching in the mini-series, Pastor Andy provides five critical biblical methods for being free of the shackles of offense. Practical but powerful, these principles can help you to finally be free of the same cycles of defeat repeating themselves in your life, and thus help you to enter a new realm of blessing and fruitfulness.  This recording includes Pastor Andy's ministry time after the formal teaching is concluded leading people through the process of renouncing unforgiveness and embracing freedom.  

An old folk song declares, "It's me, O Lord, standing in the need of prayer."  And that's the attitude in which we approach this teaching based on the book of James.  This teaching exposes one common source of offense, which is insecurity.  We uncover the damage insecurity can do, the evil it can lead to, and how to overcome it with wisdom from the Word of God.  

Jesus said that offenses are bound to come, and the Bible also provides copious amounts of instruction with how to handle them.  This teaching enlarges upon the destructive nature of nursing the offense, how to prevent always being easily offended in the first place, and biblical guidance on handling interpersonal conflicts with people.  It's a must-hear if you are believing God for answers to prayer, because ongoing strife undermines our faith, hinders our prayers, and opens the door to the demonic.  Prepare to be set free from the trap of offense!  

Elder Mark Suverkrup expounds upon the importance of the pursuit of wisdom in the life of faith.  

In this final teaching of the series, Pastor Andy addresses some common misconceptions about abiding, and more benefits of abiding.  It ends on a weighty yet encouraging note about the impact of going ALL IN!  

This teaching has something for everyone.  While targeted primarily to those who are already bearing much fruit in their Christian lives, there are principles of abiding with Christ in this teaching that apply to all God's children and can not only prevent people from making critical miscalculations and mistakes in their walks of faith, but also richly deepen the walk of faith you already have.  

In continuing with our segment on pruning under the umbrella topic of abounding fruitfulness, we arrive in this teaching at another way the Vinedresser prunes His vines to bring about even greater fruitfulness.  This may be one of the most difficult tests ever, but it is one that has the potential to radically transform the lives of those who submit themselves to this more advanced level of pruning.  

When God's children progress past the early stages of our spiritual development, God will coax the branches to get even more fruit from our lives.  This teaching helps us recognize the next level of pruning and maturity.  Prepare for abundant fruitfulness!
