The Space of Grace #apostlesmeditation

There’s a moment in Exodus 33 that I keep coming back to, not for the history of it, but for what it reveals about how God’s presence actually works in life.

Starting at verse 12, Moses prays for God’s presence. And what unfolds is a picture of exactly how — and why — God chooses to show up. I want you to notice one word that shows up again and again in this passage: grace.

Moses says to the Lord, “See, thou sayest unto me, Bring this people up: and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight” (Exodus 33:12). Whether we recognize it or not, if we belong to God, we are meant to live as grace seekers at all times.

Then in verse 13, Moses gets specific: “Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, show me now thy way, that I may know thee.” Read that again. Moses isn’t asking for provision first. He’s asking to know God. He’s saying, in effect, I don’t want the car, I don’t want the house — I want the kind of grace that lets me know You. Because when you know Him, everything else follows.

God answers in verse 14: “My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.” Whatever is going on around you, when God says rest, that settles it.

Moses pushes further in verse 15: “If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence.” That’s the posture we need — a refusal to move forward without His presence, no matter how good the plan looks on paper. Verse 16 makes the connection plain: it’s God going with His people that separates them from every other people on the face of the earth. Not talent. Not strategy. Presence.

And then verse 17: “I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken: for thou hast found grace in my sight, and I know thee by name.” Twice now, grace and being known by name are tied together.

That’s the space of grace — the space of God’s favor. It’s not just a phrase for a sermon; it’s a place you’re meant to live in permanently. At the table, in the bedroom, behind the wheel of your car — grace is meant to be your address, not just a visit.

There is not a person in this world who can outdo the God that is in you. I'm taking you into the prophetic realm of glory — a dimension that most of the body of Christ has never walked in before. Through John chapter 11 and the resurrection of Lazarus, I show you that Jesus wasn't just performing a miracle — He was teaching the highest move of the anointing available to you right now.

When you learn to submit to the glory, you stop praying the same prayer over and over and start prophesying. You stop asking and start commanding. Your healing is done. Your debt cancellation is done. Every grave in your life is coming open.

Saved, But Not Transformed #apostlesmeditation

For a long time, I watched good people — people who love God, people who got born again and meant it — stay stuck. And the more I sat with it, the more I realized the blockage wasn’t a lack of faith. It was this: we have depended on salvation without transformation.

Here’s what I mean. You are saved in your spirit. That part of you is settled. But your soul — your mind, your conscience, your imagination, your thinking — is not saved. And your body, the very thing you’re sitting in right now, is not saved either. Salvation happens once, in an instant, when you confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord. But your soul and your body have to be brought into that salvation every single day.

In our generation, we see people receive salvation, but we rarely see them surrender to the Holy Spirit in a way that produces real transformation. And that’s exactly how the enemy wants it. He doesn’t mind you having salvation, because he knows salvation alone only covers one part of you. He has two parts to work with — your soul and what I’d call your senses, your body — and you only think you’re using one.

So here’s the honest breakdown: spirit, soul, and senses. Your spirit is saved. Your soul and your senses are not saved — but they can be put in a saved position. There is constant traffic running through your soul and constant traffic running through your senses, and you have to take charge of what’s allowed to pass through. You can pray all you want. You can memorize every scripture you own. You can go to church nineteen times a week. None of that will show you who you really are until you start taking control over your soul and your body.

This is where Romans 12:1-3 becomes more than a verse you underline — it becomes a daily discipline. Paul writes that we should present our bodies as a living sacrifice, and that we should not be conformed to this world but transformed by the renewing of our minds. Not renewed once. Renewed — an ongoing action. Alongside that, Romans 8:14 reminds us that those led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God. But there is interruption in being led by the Spirit when your soul and your senses are running unchecked, because neither one of them is saved.

So this isn’t a scare tactic — it’s a wake-up call. You are powerful enough and strong enough to protect your soul and your senses, but only if you know your God well enough to do it. You cannot pray your way around a soul you refuse to govern. You have to save your soul, in the sense of daily surrendering it, and you have to bring your body into agreement with what your spirit already knows.

Salvation is the doorway. Transformation is the walk. Don’t stop at the door.

The enemy and the world does not want you to know that you are a glory carrier. They want you praying as if you don't already have the victory on the inside of you. In this message, I break down what it truly means to carry the glory of God — not as a concept, but as a lifestyle. The glory is not something you wait on, it is something you activate. When you walk in the revelation that all that God is, all that God has, and all that God can do has already risen upon you, your health changes, your finances change, your family changes, and every malfunction in your life has to move.

Stop depending on salvation alone—it’s time for total transformation.

Do you feel like you're saved, but your life isn’t reflecting the freedom, favor, or breakthrough you know God promised? You aren't alone. Many Christians have received salvation in their spirit, but their soul—their mind, imagination, and senses—remains in old patterns.

In this message, I’m sharing a revelation that the Lord gave me: Grace is supernatural favor flowing in and through your heart by faith.

When you learn how to take control of your soul and senses, you position yourself for supernatural promotions that no one can stop. I am decreeing that from this moment on, you are walking in a new level of divine favor, grace, and glory.

The Cross Paid, Grace Delivers #apostlesmeditation

One of the most significant shifts that can happen in a believer’s life is the shift from praying to receive what they need to living in the awareness of what they already own. The cross did not create the possibility of blessing — it completed the transfer. Everything that belongs to God was placed into the hands of His children through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Grace is the delivery system through which all of that inheritance reaches your daily life.

Understanding grace requires submitting to the full scope of what Christ accomplished. It is not enough to acknowledge the cross alone. Grace flows from the cross, through the resurrection, through the ascension, through the seated position of Christ at the right hand of the Father, through the sending of the Holy Spirit, and all the way into this present moment of your life.

Each of those events represents a dimension of grace that is available to you right now. The cross paid for it. The resurrection proved the payment was accepted. The ascension established the authority behind it. The seated position of Christ declares that the work is finished — nothing is left undone. And the Holy Spirit is the One who makes all of it personally real and operative in your experience.

Second Peter 1:3-4 describes the scope of what has been made available: “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.” All things. Exceeding great and precious promises. Partakers of the divine nature. This is the inheritance that grace delivers. And the same passage goes on to instruct believers to add to their faith virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness, and charity — because these qualities keep the channel of grace open and the flow of blessing unobstructed.

Isaiah 53:5 remains the bedrock: “He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.” Present tense. We are healed. The same spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives on the inside of every born-again believer — Romans 8:11. The same grace that brought Him out of the grave is the grace that is carrying you right now. Just as the grave could not hold Jesus, nothing can permanently hold you down when you are operating in the awareness of your grace covering. You are not a person struggling to receive. You are a grace wearer — and grace is a revelation of divine ownership.

Are you tired of feeling like your prayers are being blocked and your spiritual progress is constantly being sabotaged? I reveal a life-changing truth that most believers miss: your spirit is born again, but your soul is out of control.

In this message, I break down why Satan doesn't even need to attack your spirit—he targets your mind, imagination, and conscience instead. You will discover how an uncontrolled soul allows the enemy to rob you of your health, wealth, and peace, and how you can take back your authority. It is time to step out of the Christian rat race, anchor your soul in God's presence, and walk in the supernatural power and promotion that Jesus paid for you to have.
