We all face the kinds of circumstances that require that we go past what we think we can endure in order to serve God. Sometimes it's a person in our lives that exhausts all of our natural abilities to be loving and patient. Sometimes it's a temptation to give in to lust or pride that will push us to our limits and make our flesh desperately desire to defy God's Word.
In this very encouraging message, Minister Chris Facey gives us ways that we can fight against the temptation to give up on God when the going gets tough. We all need courage if we're going to be Christians--this walk is not always easy. Will you stand when everything inside is telling you you'll never make it? This is a very timely message.
The Great Expectation: God Expects you to Win - June 22, 2008

I have to say: I've been soooo hype to get this podcast out to you all! This is definitely a message that the Body of Christ needs to hear.
When God wrote Christianity HE WROTE VICTORY, NOT DEFEAT! However, most Christians have been taught that they are defeated before they even try to live for God. Have you ever heard this: "aww, we all fall short" or "we won't be holy 'til we enter glory" or "God know's you're going to sin?" MAN! Where's the hope?!? When you look in the Bible you don't see this type of talk, you see examples of victory. Look at King David, when he trusted in the Lord, he was always victorious in battle. The woman that had been bleeding, EXPECTED that when she touched just the hem of Christ's garment she would have victory over her disease.
How can we have victory over sin if we don't expect victory? We know more about what to do when we sin, than what to do to keep us from sinning. It's so sad, before people even trying to live for the Lord they are already content with coming in 2nd or 3rd place. They don't know that God expects us to come in 1st place - to have the victory.
The amazing thing about God is that HE GIVES US HIS POWER, HIS SPIRIT, WHICH ENABLES US TO GET THE VICTORY! Pastor Cox shows you how the very Word of God breaks the chains of defeatism in the Christian's life and gives us His Spirit to overcome our flesh, the world, and the evil one. Amen!
