We do not have what it takes and sometimes do not know what we need or what we should be praying for. However, because we have the Spirit of God within us, He connects us to the very nature of who God is. Where we lack, He does not. Where we are weak, He is strong. When we have questions, He has the answer…and we have hope!…

David J. Jones explains that this portion of scripture is often prooftexted and that instead we should apply it to the context it is set in.

Moses had all the facts he could ever need and yet he still asked the Lord to “teach me your ways.” We need to come into the presence of the Lord because we need to be changed from the inside. However, in order to be in that place, we need to have an encounter with Him. Exodus 33.12-16 12 Moses said to the Lord, “You have been telling me, ‘Lead the…

Walking by the Spirit is not a given. Allowing God to work within us is a position that is chosen; It happens when we die to the old nature and surrender our will to the will of God in every aspect of our lives. If this surrender is not generally taking place then it puts a restriction on the life and power of the body of Christ. Note: This is a re…

We tend to celebrate after something happens but the concept of celebrating is very different when it comes to the things of God.

Comments like, “if only we had more faith”, or, “if only we did xyz then we could escape things like pandemics”, ignore the truth that the people of God suffer with the people of the world and there is no distinction in that. However, suffering may mean something different for us as Christians… (This is a repeat of a teaching that took place in 202…

It is one thing to hold a set of beliefs. It is an entirely different thing to recognize why you believe those things.

Some of us have had a taste of the wonderful goodness of God. The trouble is that sometimes the taste fades into the background and we become accustomed to a lesser everyday life. However, we must always continue to seek God with all of our heart and not put boundaries on our expectations. (This episode is a repeat presentation.)…

Freedom is a very difficult concept; it’s all or nothing. You cannot be “a little bit” free. You can not be “mostly” free. You are either free or you are not. David J.

Here we see Paul speaking extreme words because the honour of Christ’s name is at stake. He sees that the people of Galatia are going down the route of ruin so he speaks strongly to them and to the false teachers who have come to cut the people off from the true gospel. Paul must speak strongly in this situation – and so must we.…

David J. Jones teaches on how the container in which we hold our beliefs (ie: the belief system or “bathtub”) is the most important thing in determining how we interpret the beliefs themselves. It acts as a critical reference point. We are asked to be sure that the things we believe are built on true foundations because when you change the foundati…

Self Determination (doing things our own way) is where we all started. It is about making choices from the place of our fallen nature rather than from a place of connection to God. In this episode David J. Jones helps us see how we can address this foundational problem.저자 True Foundations
