When we approach Jesus with faith, we can trust that He welcomes us with compassion, love, and power. He is not distant from those who are hurting or burdened. He invites us to come near and experience the freedom He brings. Whatever has held you captive, weighed heavily on your heart, or left you feeling wounded, Jesus is able to meet you right where you are. His embrace brings hope to the hurting and freedom to those who have been bound by life’s struggles. Faith reaches out to the One who never changes. Jesus is still setting people free, still restoring broken hearts, and still bringing healing today. “The Miracles of Jesus Christ” is available now!

How do we end up so far from biblical truth? Often it doesn’t happen all at once. It happens slowly and methodically as people begin to drift away from the foundation of God’s Word and become increasingly open to ideas that contradict Scripture. The enemy doesn’t always present deception in an obvious way. He can package false ideas in ways that sound reasonable, appealing, and even spiritual — making them easier to accept and harder to recognize as error. That’s why we must stay grounded in the Bible. We need to know God’s Word well enough to recognize when something sounds good but doesn’t line up with the truth. Don’t allow yourself to be carried away by every new idea or teaching. Stay rooted in Scripture, test what you hear, and hold firmly to the truth of God’s Word! Comment “ROOTED” and you’ll be sent the link to this full teaching! — Rick Renner

We look forward to hearing from you! — Rick Renner

We’re believing for a revival of the Bible in the Church! Scriptural error and false doctrine can lead people astray, but knowing God’s Word gives us a firm foundation and helps us recognize what is true and what is not. Even in the Early Church, the truth was under attack, and believers were instructed to “earnestly contend for the faith.” Today we’re seeing the reemergence of some of the same false ideas that challenged the Church in the First Century. It’s a time to press deeper into the Word of God, strengthen our foundation in truth, and refuse to be moved by teachings that contradict His Word. Let’s become people who know the Bible, love the truth, and stand firmly on God’s Word! Comment “REVIVAL” and you’ll be sent the link to this full teaching! — Rick Renner

When we read that God provides "a way of escape," we often imagine something dramatic, but the Greek word Paul uses simply means "a way out." Sometimes the miracle isn't that temptation disappears. Sometimes the miracle is that God gives us the wisdom and strength to walk away from it. Joseph understood this. When Potiphar's wife repeatedly tempted him, he didn't stay and argue with temptation. He didn't try to reason with it. He ran. He left his cloak behind and fled because he valued purity more than his reputation. There are moments in our lives when the most spiritual thing we can do is simply leave. Walk away from the conversation. Turn off the screen. End the unhealthy relationship. Remove yourself from the environment before temptation has an opportunity to take root. My friend, never mistake retreat from temptation for weakness. Sometimes walking away is one of the greatest demonstrations of spiritual strength. — Rick Renner Want To Go Deeper?

The Real Problem: Lack of Bible Knowledge teapawt.net/i/broadcasts/1jxXgBVQn…

One of my favorite verses about overcoming temptation is 1 Corinthians 10:13. Paul says there is no temptation that has overtaken any of us except what is "common to man." The Greek word simply means “ordinary.” In other words, the temptation you're facing isn't unique, and it certainly isn't greater than God's power. Sometimes we unintentionally make temptation stronger by talking about how impossible it feels, but Scripture encourages us to do the opposite. Instead of magnifying the temptation, magnify the faithfulness of God. Others have faced the same battle, others have overcome, and through the power of the Holy Spirit, you can overcome too. My friend, don't give temptation more attention than you give God's promises. The Lord is faithful, and He has already prepared the grace you'll need to walk in victory. — Rick Renner Want To Go Deeper?

When you open your Bible, don’t read it alone — invite the Holy Spirit to read it with you. The Holy Spirit is the One who inspired Scripture, and He knows the Word better than anyone. Before you begin reading, take a moment to pray: “Holy Spirit, open my eyes and show me wondrous things out of Your Word.” God’s Word is alive, powerful, and full of treasures that we may miss if we simply read through the pages. Ask the Holy Spirit to open your understanding, reveal truth to you, and show you what God wants you to see. Make it a daily prayer: “Holy Spirit, open my eyes.” What a difference it can make when you read the Bible with the One who inspired it. — Rick Renner

Jesus warned that if our eye is "evil," our whole being can become filled with darkness. The Greek word He used describes something harmful, corrupt, or spiritually destructive. That should cause every believer to pause. The enemy rarely begins by attacking our actions. He often begins by seeking access to our minds. What repeatedly enters through our eyes eventually settles into our thoughts, our imagination, and our emotions. Left unchecked, those thoughts can become strongholds that influence how we see ourselves, others, and even God. That's why we must be intentional about what we allow into our lives. If something continually stirs fear, impurity, bitterness, or unbelief, don't give it permission to remain. You are not required to entertain every image or every voice that comes before you. My friend, guard your heart by first guarding your eyes. The light of God's Word will always produce freedom, but darkness only produces bondage. — Rick Renner Want To Go Deeper?

How To Pray for Leaders Who Are in Error teapawt.net/i/broadcasts/1pKkOXwkg…

Jesus compared the eye to a lamp. In the ancient world, a lamp wasn't simply placed anywhere. If you wanted it to fill the house with light, you lifted it onto a lampstand where its light could reach every corner of the room. There's a beautiful lesson in that for us. Jesus wasn't only teaching about our physical eyes. He was teaching us about our focus. Whatever we elevate in our lives eventually becomes the greatest influence on our thinking. If we continually elevate fear, bad news, negativity, or worldly voices, those things will begin shaping our perspective. But when we intentionally elevate God's Word, His promises begin illuminating every area of our lives. My friend, ask yourself today: “What have I been giving the highest place in my attention?” If you want your life to be filled with God's light, make His Word your highest priority. Lift it above every other voice, and allow His truth to become the brightest influence in your life. — Rick Renner Want To Go Deeper?

The Greek word “parakaleo,” often translated “exhort,” is actually a word that was often used in a military setting. Before sending their troops into battle, commanding officers would call them together, speak directly to them, remind them of the dangers of war and the glory of victory, and stir them to stand strong and fight with courage. That is the word Jude uses when he exhorts us to contend for the faith. There is a war being waged against the Church — a war for truth against deception. We are not called to face that battle unprepared or afraid. Stand firm in the truth of God’s Word, hold your head high, and boldly contend for the faith He has entrusted to you. — Rick Renner

Contending for the Faith in the Last Days teapawt.net/i/broadcasts/1wxWjlYew…

Jesus has called us to carry His work beyond the places where He ministered during His earthly life — to take the message of His love, truth, healing, and transforming power to people everywhere. We are called to go beyond our comfort zones, reach those who are hurting, and bring the hope of the Gospel into places where darkness has tried to take hold. Wherever there is a person in need, there is an opportunity for us to demonstrate the love and power of God. We are called to be His hands and feet, carrying His life-changing message to the farthest corners of the world. “The Miracles of Jesus Christ” is available now!
