In Spirit & Truth

If you were learning to be a carpenter, it would be really meaningful if your boss got in there with you and showed you how to sand the wood, demonstrating how to measure, cut, and give the finishing touches. Today, Pastor JD invites parents to lead their children by being an example in how to live your life.

Have you ever said something that you thought would give you the upper hand in a situation, only to regret it at some point. Perhaps one of the biggest challenges of life is keeping our tongues in check. As Pastor JD will teach you in his message today, we would do well as believers to guard our mouths.

In Spirit & Truth is the teaching ministry of Pastor JD Farag.

What would you bring as a gift for someone who owned the entire world? Or to take it even further, what would you give as a gift to someone who owned all of Creation? Have you ever wondered what you could give God? In today's message, Pastor JD will teach you that the one thing you can give God is your obedience.

In today’s prophecy update, Pastor JD discusses his review of articles and studies which have proven the ineffectiveness of masks. Why then are they mandated and why are we still wearing them, you ask? Pastor JD believes it is the first step into total government conformity. First, we conform to the mask, then what?

Social media has been both a blessing and a curse since its inception. It’s helpful to know what’s going on in the world, but it can also be overwhelming and even downright destructive. In today’s update, Pastor JD is saddened by the reality that Christians are fighting on social media while the world watches.

Proverbs states that an inheritance gained quickly is not blessed. This is to say that those who obtain much with little to no effort are often quick to end up with more problems than blessings. In today's message, Pastor JD reflects on the importance of diligence, wisdom, and discernment when it comes to inheritance.

Due to the ever increasing hustle and bustle nature of our society, it can be easy for us as believers to get caught up in the current. As Pastor JD will teach you in his message today, this is one of the biggest hinderances in our walk. In his study, you'll learn the importance of taking the time to hear The voice of The Lord.

Have you ever noticed how easy it is to start a quarrel, and how once it's started it seems even easier to escalate it? In today's message, Pastor JD discusses the importance of being a peacemaker, rather than someone who creates tension or strife. Are you a peacemaker? Or do you contribute to quarrels?

As Pastor JD discusses today, Jesus’ return is imminent. In these last days, it’s crucial to be in the Word so you can tell truth from lies. Satan knows scripture like the back of His hand and will use it to pull as many believers away from Christ as he can. His time is short, and He’s desperate. Don’t be deceived. Be in the Word!

Pastor JD asks a key question in this prophecy update today. Where is your devotion? If it’s directed toward anything other than Christ, it’s misplaced. Jesus Christ deserves, demands, and desires your whole devotion to Him. He gave His life and paid the debt you owed. Why would you want to be devoted to anything else?

Many of us have a tendency to neglect the severity of sin in our lives, which more often than not leads to things spinning out of control. As Pastor JD will teach you in his message today, we would do well to think of sin as a life or death matter, no matter how small we might perceive each sin to be.

Would you say that others describe you as approachable, friendly, or inviting? Or do people tend to think of you as intimidating, stern, or perhaps even a little bit on the rude side? In today's message, Pastor JD reflects on the attractiveness of kind, gentle, and approachable individuals.

Chances are that you're familiar with the term “little white lie.” This term is to suggest that small lies aren't really that big of a deal. However, the Bible has something very different to say about lies. In today's message, Pastor JD will teach you the importance of telling the truth, no matter the repercussions.

Good friends are hard to find and as we get older, it seems to become even more difficult. Today, Pastor JD discusses the importance of true friendship and communion with one other. It’s not about the quantity, but the quality. Don’t be discouraged if your friends are few, because you have the greatest friend of all in Christ.

When things turn into a mess, it’s easy to blame everyone but yourself. We always think, “I couldn’t possibly have caused this disaster.” But Pastor JD is here to remind us today that often times, our attitude brings about our ruin. If you maintain a mindset of pride, whatever follows after will only be destructive.

If you know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, Pastor JD encourages you today, to move everyone, everyday a little closer to God. Don’t be the weak link in the chain on someone’s road to discovery. If you have even a tiny window of an opening to share Jesus with someone, take it. Their future eternity depends on it.

In today’s update, Pastor JD reminds you that you are fearfully and wonderfully made by God, who loves you. All people were made to worship. If you don’t worship God, you’ll worship other things that will never satisfy your longing. Turn away from the things you’re worshipping and turn toward your maker, God.

Have you ever gotten so caught up in speaking that you said something you didn’t mean? Maybe it wasn’t unkind but still, you couldn’t control your tongue. Pastor JD talks to us today about how powerful our words are; they can bring blessings or ruin. Before you speak, think hard about the words you want to voice.

Do you ever feel like you don’t make enough of an impact to make any difference? Pastor JD is here today to remind us that, we have the power to cause God delighted, as well as despair. Everything you do, God sees. He loves you and wants the best for you and when you follow Him, you bring delight to His heart.

Are you one of those people who needs to make sure everyone knows you’re right? God’s not like that. Pastor JD talks to us today about how God won’t force you to do anything. If it’s your desire to be sinful, it’ll make Him sad but He won’t stop you. But if you want God to work in your life, you must be open to the change.

It can be hard to admit to your faults. Pastor JD reminds us today that, the ‘best you’ is not your goal but rather, ‘being like Jesus’ should be your objective. Be open to criticism when it’s given in love. Take heed of advice – don’t get angry about it – and do your best to continually grow and become more like Him.

Pastor JD’s Bible prophecy updates are getting more specific as the weeks pass and the second coming of Christ draws near. He is more certain than ever that Jesus’s return is imminent. He also believes that the mark of the beast will come in the form of a mandatory COVID vaccination. Turn to Christ and be saved today!

It’s said that Christians lose their lives to gain Christ. What does that mean? Today, Pastor JD explains that when you receive Christ as your Savior, this world is no longer the most important thing to you. You understand that no matter what happens, there is eternity awaiting. Have you made the decision to gain Christ?
