August 1, Dear Child of God,

1 August 1, 2016 Dear Child of God, It s been quite some time since I last wrote you. The Holy Spirit has instructed me to restart the Inside the Kingdom Newsletter in order to share divine insights into God s word and to report to you the many signs, wonders, and supernatural happenings at Kingdom Living Church. Before we move into the August 2016 Edition, it s vital that I update you on the things Jesus has done for Kingdom Living Church since the December 2015 edition of the newsletter. It s important that you reflect where God has brought us from so you can move forward in expectation. In January 2016 God revealed to us that 2016 would be the Year of Victory for Kingdom Living Church. God gave me Joel 2:26-27 to ignite our faith for complete victory! Please carefully read the scripture below. Joel 2: And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed.

2 27 And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed. Your absolute confidence in God will never result in shame! You can be confident that God will truly perform what He has spoken to you. Don t be moved by how things appear today. Let your expectation in God speak for you. As I often say, the future will reveal what you believe today. The word instructs us that NOT ONE word of His good promises has ever failed. 1 Kings 8:56 56 Blessed be the LORD, that hath given rest unto his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of Moses his servant. You can be confident in God that this is the year in which you experience undeniable proofs of His power working in your life. It s time for proofs you re no longer wishing your hopes are no longer deferred this is the Year of Victory for you. Your victory demands a prevailing power to secure its manifestation! Many believers fail to comprehend the need for power to prevail so I preached a powerful series throughout the month of January entitled The Power to Prevail. I strongly recommend you go to the KLC Church app or website and order this life-altering series. The following is a small sample of what you ll learn God has a plan, a place and a period of time in-which to bring you into your wealth place. His power and your faith in what He said has you on a collision course with destiny. Don t be moved by how things look today your future is secure in Christ!

3 Psalm 66:12 12 Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place. There is no wasted motion in God. No ambiguity. God has not changed His mind regarding you! Release your faith and add some tenacity on the following scriptures. 2 Samuel 7: Moreover I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as beforetime, 11 And as since the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel, and have caused thee to rest from all thine enemies. Also the LORD telleth thee that he will make thee an house. God has a place for you. The battle has been won. Uncertainty is swallowed up in faith. Your eyes are fixed on Jesus and nothing moves you but the word of God. Now enter into His rest today and see 2016 as the Year of Victory for your life. In February 2016 The overriding message in the month of February centered on the subject of Prevailing in Life, not enduring life, but prevailing! There s a huge difference and I believe far too many believers are simply enduring life instead of taking authority over any circumstance that challenges your faith. You have a covenant of blessing that can empower you to prevail and make your life enviable to the world. Genesis 26:14

4 14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him. A great preacher stated, Challenges make Champions. So you can t become a champion unless you are willing to get in the ring and fight. It s time for you to fight the good fight of faith at a higher level of performance. Remember the problems you face today require a greater anointing than you possessed yesterday. God hasn t changed. His will is for you, your children, and your family to prevail in life. Believe God. Have the God kind of faith that speaks things that be not as though they were. Let your words be supported by audacious acts of faith that demonstrate your absolute confidence in Jesus. God calls refusal to believe the sin of unbelief! Unbelief assures you will be the tail and not the head, beneath only and not above. Unbelief is faith in Satan s kingdom. Unbelief demands works just like faith in God demands works. Don t be deceived inaction won t make the devil leave you alone. The only thing the devil respects is power. You need God s supernatural power to prevail in life! Read the next two scriptures Isaiah 7:9 9 And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established. Isaiah 4:5 5 And the LORD will create upon every dwelling place of mount Zion, and upon her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night: for upon all the glory shall be a defence. God desires for His glory to be your defense. Again I strongly recommend you go to the KLC Church app or website

5 and order February s powerful teachings. In March 2016 March is Marriage Month at KLC. Every service is dedicated to an aspect of marriage and family life. The series I want to reference for March was entitled Tell Your Marriage Help is On the Way. This series will resurrect any marriage no matter how far gone it may appear. If your marriage is being challenged or you know someone whose marriage is struggling, I recommend purchasing this series. Read the following and believe God Psalm 121: I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. 2 My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. All the help your marriage will ever need comes from God If He can create the heavens, He can create harmony and happiness in your marriage and in your family The Covenant of Marriage has an enemy Satan. But it also has an all-power, all-knowing, everywhere at the same time advocate The Holy Spirit! His mission is to lead you to the solution for the problem your marriage or family faces. Whether it s repentance, forgiveness, understanding, self-control, or patience, whatever is needed, He will supply. He is your sole-source for everything. Don t look to people first and then after they fail call upon God. Go to God first. Make Him first. The problem many believers make is violating biblical priority.

6 Matthew 6: (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Only God knows what your marriage really needs. Even before you ask Him, He s ready to intervene. Be ready to hear. This teaching series will both inspire and educate. God s people are not destroyed because of what the devil is attempting to do. They are destroyed for a lack of knowledge. Ignorance of God s word is deadly. Engage the Holy Spirit right now. Learn how to cast your cares upon Him because He cares for you more than you can imagine. He knows about the pain and disappointment, the regrets, the missteps and so on. The Holy Spirit is inside you you don t have to go looking for Him. Invest in your marriage and family today, go to the KLC Church app or website today and order March s powerful teachings. In April 2016 God gave me a word in April that is so apropos for the times in which we live. I felt the compelling move of the Spirit to preach a series entitled The Glory of the Latter House. We are the end-time church. The latter days began in the upper room and now some 2,000 years later, we are at the end of the latter days. I believe this is the greatest time to be alive in the church age. Now we must understand the awesome transformation that is underway in the body of Christ. The church is the bride of Christ. As the day draws closer to the

7 great marriage supper the glory upon the bride of Christ is increasing exponentially, supernaturally and profoundly. Revelation 19:9 9 And he saith unto me, write, blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, these are the true sayings of God. The Prophet Joel prophesied that in the last days God would pour out His spirit upon all flesh. That outpouring began at Pentecost but didn t end there. Release your faith now to understand the following; God is still pouring out! The greatest outpouring of His Glory upon the Church is coming The latter days (NOW) will be greater than the former His Glory will rest upon His people The aforementioned statements are necessary for the end-time harvest of souls. God s eternal purpose for an earth filled with His glory as the oceans cover the seas speaks to the great harvest of souls. God is after the lost and the transformation of the Church is at the center of this, the greatest outpouring of His glory the earth has ever witnessed. Haggai 2:4-9 4 Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the LORD; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the LORD, and work: for I am with you, saith the LORD of hosts: 5 According to the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so my spirit remaineth among you: fear ye not.

8 6 For thus saith the LORD of hosts; yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; 7 And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts. 8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts. 9 The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts. Go to our website today and purchase your copy of The Glory of the Latter House series. In May 2016 The month of May was the introduction of a series entitled Holy Living. As the title suggests, this powerful teaching will help align you with God. Your God is a holy god and without holiness no man shall see Him! So the call to holiness and sanctification cannot be ignored. Righteous living is mandated to walk with a righteous God. Amos 3:3 3 Can two walk together, except they be agreed? In this teaching, you will learn that you ve been chosen for continuous sanctification. Sanctification does not denote perfection! It does however demand a continuous inertia and drive for spiritual perfection. God requires us to be holy as He is holy Leviticus 11:45 45 For I am the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.

9 Remember godliness is profitable in all things. Its benefits manifest in this life through your health, wellbeing, marriage, family, finances and so on, but also in the eternal life to come. This is one teaching series that will bless every aspect of your life. 1 Timothy 4:8 8 For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come. Please go to the KLC Church app or website today and order the Holy Living series In June 2016 In June we discovered the mystery of God s plan and purpose for our lives. God has a plan and a purpose for your life. You re not a mistake nor you didn t just happen. His plan for your life involves the advancement of the Kingdom of God. The Kingdom has an agenda. That agenda is to spread the glory of the Lord throughout the earth. Your sense of purpose and fulfillment can only be satisfied when you discover your place in His eternal purpose. We learned that God s purposes cannot be disannulled. Isaiah 14:27

10 27 For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back? But we also understand we have an adversary Satan and he opposes God s plan for your life. Psalm 140:4 4 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings. However I have great news. You have a covenant right to a bright future. A latter end that makes your former days seem like a distant dream. I don t know about you, but I m anticipating God to perform mighty wonders in my life, wonders that will exceed my ability and resources but not my faith. Believe God the circumstances you face today are preparing you for your tomorrow. Just examine the life of a man named Joseph. Joseph was sold into slavery, a convicted felon, and imprisoned with a life-sentence. And then supernaturally, God s plan demands Joseph s release from prison and promotion to second in command of the empire of Egypt. Without any formal training in the language, or an MBA in political science Joseph went from convicted felon to leader of the most powerful nation on the planet in 1 day! Can somebody say BUT GOD! The principal point of this anointed teaching is that God s plan was underway through the pit experience, during the time in Potiphar s house and even in prison. If you don t understand that God is with you, you will become discouraged, oppressed and depressed. But I know that s not your testimony. You are on your way to your wealthy place. Go to the KLC website today to buy these teaching! In July 2016 God spoke the word outpour to me on my way to church in early

11 July. This singular word from God transformed every sermon I preached, consumed my thinking and demonstrated that one word from God can change everything. God s revelation in the word outpour birthed a series entitled Financial Dominion. In this series you ll discover that there must be a financial awakening in the end-time Church. For the work that must be done, financial liberty is absolutely vital. This teaching series is designed to awaken you to the realities of financial vitality. Your redemption positions you to be the head and not the tail in all things including money. It is possible to live without financial stress. The end-times demand that you have the financial means to impact the world for the Kingdom of God. We must see the Gospel as God s global initiative to spread His glory over all the earth. Because of the word outpour I suspended our weekly lesson on giving. It became clear that God s intention behind the word outpour was to create addicted givers at KLC. I can t overemphasize how impactful His outpouring has been at KLC. I preached on the subject Giving is the Cure for Poverty at a homeless shelter and The Power of the Tithe at a local prison. Addicted giving was preached at all five of our monthly outreach services. We ve experienced a tremendous outpouring in financial giving and it isn t decreasing. Supernatural harvests accompany addicted giving. Below are just a few of the powerful principles contained in this life altering series You cannot pray your way out of poverty. You can only sow your way out. You cannot pray your way out of living from paycheck to paycheck. You can only sow your way out. You cannot fast your way out of financial hardship. You can only sow your way out.

12 God doesn t need your giving. You need your giving. Giving to the poor helps you. God will not bless you beyond your commitment to promote the Kingdom of God. Whatever God has planned for your life, it will take giving to get there and giving to stay there. It will take financial means to repair and restore desolate places, Cheerful additive giving will empower God to demand men give to you more than you could ever imagine! Luke 6:38 38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. Remember IT WAS GIVING that ensured the widow s oil never ran dry, IT WAS GIVING that empowered the Shunammite woman to receive a son when her husband could no longer perform, IT WAS GIVING that qualified Solomon to receive an audience with God to state what he wanted Giving is the cure for poverty, lack, not enough, just enough, barely making it and every other form of lack If you want your financial situation to change once and for all, invest in your future and go to the KLC Church app or website

13 today and order the Financial Dominion series. Your finances will never be the same. In August 2016 God spoke one word for August VICTORY!
