Pastor Bob preached on making adjustments to get our “receivers” (our hearts) in good working condition to receive God’s love. In order to receive from God, we must understand His nature, which is love. Don’t question God’s love! (Hosea 4:6; Romans 8:35…, Ephesians 3:15)
Love’s Compassion Part 2
Smooth Sailing Part 3
Pastors must feed their people with knowledge and understanding. The church should help fulfill people’s callings. Authority is designed to be given away. A pastor is not to control. A church should be difficult to join and easy to leave. Edification of the body comes through authority. Get out of the nest, do the things of God, and take risks.
Love’s Compassion Part 1
Our receiving from God is a love problem. Pastor Bob shares many scriptures showing that God and Jesus are full of compassion. Moving in compassion will cause the supernatural to move. Understand how much God loves you!
Smooth Sailing Part 2
Pastor Dale preaches on using the Word and your spirit to help you navigate in the spiritual realm. We don’t have to be afraid to move in the spiritual realm or of being deceived, if we are submitted to the Word of God.
Smooth Sailing Part 1
Jesus is our shepherd, and pastors are His under-shepherds. Many people have been manipulated and abused by their religious leaders. It is necessary to know how to receive from your pastor and to handle spiritual authority. Pastor Dale tells three ways in which a believer must submit to God. (Ps. 23; Matt. 28:18; Heb. 13:17)
The Reality of The New Creation
Armada guest speaker, Lavere Soper, clarifies who we are as born-again believers. We have the genetics and DNA of God and are a new species. Our old self dies, and we are baptized into death. We don’t try to change the “old man”, because he is dead. When our identity is mistaken, our mission is aborted. Focus on Jesus Christ.
The Word and the Spirit Agree
Our bodies are a temple to house God’s Spirit in us. Since we walk by faith, it’s as if we’re with the Lord. We can walk and reap in a glorified body here, now. The Spirit and the Word agree. Pastor Dale cautions us to not be deceived by people who may start out with the Holy Spirit, but who get away from the Word and end in deception. (Col. 2:8, 15; Gal. 1:6-9; Eph. 4:14)

Apostolic Ministry Part 9
Churches aren’t necessarily started by pastors. Jesus was the only pastor in the Bible who started a church. God uses prophets, evangelists, teachers, and apostles. All believers need to stay in their anointing and their calling. We’re responsible for the apostolic anointing to other nations, which we carry in us.
Apostolic Ministry Part 8
We are accepted and loved by God, and we should accept one another. We need to let the anointing and love flow and use the gift that is in each person. We are apostolic people in an apostolic church.
Religious Spirits and Religious Moves
Pastor Dale shares his strong focus of tearing down religious spirits in Lancaster and the church body and getting the focus back on worshiping the living Christ. Even a move of God can be worshiped, instead of the Lord Jesus Christ. Dale uses Moses and the brass serpent scriptures to illustrate how something “good” can be worshiped.
Based On The Word
“Based on the Word” Our thoughts and ways are not always God’s thoughts and ways. Using Isaiah 55:8-11 and Luke 16:22-31 (the rich man and Lazarus), Pastor Dale encourages the listener to build on the Word of God and not on manifestations, experiences, and emotions. The Word is eternal. He addresses condemnation versus conviction.
The Faith That Makes Jesus Marvel
Listen to international Spanish healing evangelist, Epi, minister on the faith that liberates. God is always wanting to do miracles.
Deception Unveiled Part 3
How do we open the door to the devil? Should we talk to demonic spirits? Is it okay to add to what God has said? It didn’t work for Adam and Eve, and we shouldn’t be doing it, either. Don’t be deceived from the simplicity of the Gospel. Be single-minded. II Cor. 11:3.
Deception Unveiled Part 2
Pastor Bob defines deception and asks us to examine the deception in our lives. Listening to what Jesus said and says will help keep us out of deception.
Apostolic Ministry Part 7
We are to be witnesses (not to be confused with witnessing). That means we must have seen and experienced the power of God. In Acts 8:1-8 churches were planted because the believers scattered because of persecution. The believers were witnesses wherever they went. Mark 16 notes that signs would follow the believers, not the apostolic. You have to go out to the harvest field. “You don’t kill the enemy at the headquarters.” The second way churches are planted is by believers being sent out. The Church will grow if each believer reproduces himself or herself. We need to walk in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit.
Apostolic Ministry Part 6
The Church is the greatest tool of evangelism. Just like the man who leaves the ninety-nine sheep to find the lost one, the Church needs to be strong, so that the believers don’t fall away when the pastor goes after the lost one. The Church should keep strengthening the strong areas and give honor to the weak areas. The Church needs to build a good scriptural foundation, not a cultural one. What is the purpose of the ministry gifts? It is to equip the saints for the work of the ministry. (Ephesians 4:12)
Apostolic Ministry Part 5
Church’s foundation is the apostolic and prophetic ministries linked to Jesus Christ Himself (not His principles) as the Chief Cornerstone. Apostle Paul wouldn’t build on someone else’s ministry. We’re not called to do everything, and Satan can devalue a ministry by overloading it with needs. We’re not to tear up previous foundations, but we are to build on them. Elisha dropped the baton of anointing and took it to the grave. YOUR ANOINTING CAN TAKE YOU PLACES YOUR CHARACTER CAN’T K
Apostolic Ministry Part 4
Church’s foundation is the apostolic and prophetic ministries linked to Jesus Christ Himself (not His principles) as the Chief Cornerstone. Apostle Paul wouldn’t build on someone else’s ministry. We’re not called to do everything, and Satan can devalue a ministry by overloading it with needs. We’re not to tear up previous foundations, but we are to build on them. Elisha dropped the baton of anointing and took it to the grave. YOUR ANOINTING CAN TAKE YOU PLACES YOUR CHARACTER CAN’T KEEP YOU. Eph. 4:11-13 There are apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers today because we have not all come to the unity of the faith. Jesus is active in the Church now and so the apostolic and prophetic ministries need to be active, too. Jesus is the author, the continuous Church builder, Messiah, high priest, intercessor.
Deception Unveiled Part 1
Are you passionate for our Lord? Ephesians 6:10 tells us to be strong in His might and to stand against the wiles of the devil. God’s people can be deceived as shown in many scriptures in which we are told not to be deceived. Our purpose is to understand God’s way and to not be ambushed, deluded, snared, or seduced by Satan and his plans and schemes. Deuteronomy 11:16 exhorts us to take heed to ourselves, lest our hearts be deceived, turning to serve other gods. How can we not be deceived? Look unto Jesus, and remember you have the mind of Christ.
