Dear Friends,
Tell me are your prayers being answered? Do you have all that you need? Do you know someone that needs healing or needs financial
help? I think we all know someone that needs that in their life. These are the last of the last days and Satan is coming against
the church more then ever before because the time is so short. I want to remind you that you have a covenant with God and
that may not mean much to you but it means much to God. God signed his name in blood at Calvary and said Yes to you. All the
promises of God are yes and amen and you can have assurance that God is pleased with you and that you can pray and know that
God will answer your prayers. God said yes to you. Speak to the mountain of
your need and command it to go. Use your covenant. Use your authority. I read this example recently if a police officer
holds up his hand and tells a motorist to stop, the motorist can run that police officer over but if he does the power that
backs up that authority will come in full force to defend the authority of the police officer. You have authority with God
and he will defend the authority that He gave you with all His power and Satan knows that.That is why the name of Jesus is
so powerful because it is backed by the infinite power of God. So whatever you ask in the name God will give it to you, because
you were given the authority to use that name. Some times we have problems
that in our mind are problems of our own making. We did this we made this mistake. I can solve it so I do not need to bother
God about it. I will handle it. God does not want to be just a failsafe we go to when we need something but our source. There
is no prayer that is too small to pray for. There is no need too great or small. We are not bothering God when we pray for
small things. He wants to hear what you need for you are His Child and He loves you. Grace
enables us to feel that we can go to him and that we are not a nuisance. Grace enables us to understand that we have access
to God anytime we want. Grace opens Heavens door and makes us realise that Heaven is our home. Grace enables us to be free
from the mindset that we have to earn it and that our goodness is based on our ability. Your provision is not based on you
it is based on God working through you. As you read these messages then let God minister His power and love to your heart
and let God in. Do not let your problems become so big that they overwhelm you so that when you go to God you think that it
is so big that not even God can solve this. Do not limit yourself to natural solutions but allow your mind to accept that
God can do more then you can ask or even think and wants to because you are His child.Let God arise and your enemies be scattered.May
God give you the desires of your heart today!

Dear Friends,
I think that it is important that we need to remind ourselves of what God has done for us in our lives. It is important to
focus on things that we already know. We too often think that okay I learned that now what is next? Once we learn something
that does not mean that we cannot forget to go back and look at what we learned. It is important to go back and look at faith
and love and some of the things that what we consider basic Christianity. Well, I have been saved x number years so I know
all of that I need to hear meat and that is milk. I do not need milk anymore. We never get to the point
when we no longer need the basics. We never get to a point we do not need milk. It is so easy to only want to listen to those
that you agree with. So many times we only want to listen to those that teach in line with what we agree with. So if we no
longer go to Faith churches then that does not mean that we cannot learn from those that go to Faith churches or from faith
Faith teachers. We need each other. We are called to love one another. We are called to love one another
with agapeo. The sacrificial love that God loved you with that sent him to the cross. God loved you so much that God
was willing to give all he had so that HE could have you. You were worth His son. Love God for God is love. IF you want
to know God you must love his children. I remember one time that someone told me that you are parking yourself
at the foot of the cross. I said so? He was offended that I wanted to be there for he thought that meant I needed to grow
more in Him. Grow in Grace and let God's grace grow in you!

Dear Friends,
This is an excerpt from one of Pastor John Hogans sermons. He was the founder of this church and was our mentor. The title
of this sermon was We have learned that.... and it was originally preached by Him on 6/27/04. The anointing
that was on this sermon when it was preached is still on it today. When a wo/man of God speaks then the anointing that is
on their words stays with it forever. The anointing that was on Paul's writings or Moses or David's is still on them
today. As you read this may the anointing that breaks yokes and frees men free your mind from the bondage of the law.
The Good News is ..... pt 2 Heb 9:13-14- There is not an issue here for he said it a 1
Million times so we need to hear it 1 Million times. Saying you have to keep the commands is witchcraft, but people love it.
It is disgusting what religion does to people. People talk to me and I tell them that they talk that way because they do not
know the truth. Your conscience needs to be purged from dead works, the handwriting has been blotted out
for the law is no more. It is satisfied! Jesus did it for that is what it is all about. Jesus took away the law so that you
could be free. Christians should know that they have eternal life. The good news is HE did it for you it is not that you have
to break your butt to fulfill the commands. Keeping the commands to be saved is not good news. Telling
me that I have to do this or that to do works to be saved is not good news. Telling me I have to do this or that to be saved
is not good news! that is what Religion does- it tells me what I have to do to be saved -putting the onus on me. It is not
good news to tell people to stop sinning. They won't get in the care before they start sinning again. The good news is
that you have eternal life for He did it for you but He gets no credit for it, that is simply amazing! that is why you have
to put religion away from you. 1 John 5:13-20 says we know we are of God. Religion is witchcraft for it keeps
people in darkness. Heb 13:15 says it is by Him. It takes Him so we can offer this sacrifice, for we cannot do it by our strength.
Give God all the credit for he did the work. God gave you all the credit for the work Jesus did. You get the reward Jesus
earned. I'm happy when God says to me you are a good and faithful servant for He is saying that He sees us in Jesus and
that He loves us for God sees us as His own personal righteousness. It may sound so simple but it really is a hard job, but
thank God for he did it for us! Pastor John Hogan
Dear Friends,
You belong to God. You are His offspring. You are a child of God and we use those terms but we do not really understand what
they mean so we do not ascribe great value to them. Just because I am a child of God does that mean something to you. Do you
really believe that God is your Dad or do you think that is just some religious jargon that does not mean much. IF you really
understand what it means to be God's child then you will rejoice knowing that. God is your Daddy and HE is your source.
Your job and what you have is not your source. God is your protector and will help you keep your
positions and possessions. God is on your side and God has no problem with you. God is not mad at you for God is for you.
God loves you for you are his child. Jesus spoke to people who had a birthright that said they were children
of God but they did not know what that meant. They went about trying to establish their own righteousness instead of receiving
the things that God wanted to give them as a gift. God gives you gifts daily. HE gives you breath and protection and a
cool breeze, a thoughtful word, a sky that seems to be an artist drawing a picture and birds singing just so that you will
know HE loves you. God constantly shows his love to you and his grace. As you go through these pages and
read what God gave to us, then know that God is trying to tell you that HE is for you and is on your side. Hear the love
in His words and read what God put on our hearts to tell your heart. IT is a love message from God. Whatever you read it is
God telling you that HE is pleased with you and wants to make sure that HE told you He loves you today! Share this sight with
others so that you may tell them also of the love of God that he put within you heart- www.wordofgracefellowship.com for when you share the site with others you are sharing God's love with them. Do you need to hear that God loves
you today! Then share it with someone else and God will tell you in other ways of His great love for you!
