When we give our lives to Christ, our rightful place in God’s kingdom is restored to us, but this can only happen if we are Born Again. You often hear that we are all God’s children, but the truth is we are His creation until we have chosen to accept His Son, Jesus Christ, into our hearts as our Lord and Savior. Let’s explore what the scriptures teach us about this highly debated statement. In the beginning, God created Man in His image, and according to Genesis 1:26 – Adam had dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth. Dominion in Merriam-Websters dictionary is to have supreme authority over what has been given to you and rights to govern or rule or determine it. God entrusted Adam with His beloved creation, giving him dominion over it. Until, one day, Adam, feeling secure in himself, unaware of his spiritual vulnerability, lost everything by disobeying God. In an instant, his relationship with God was destroyed and his dominion ripped away. Satan used his most cunning method to influence Adam, and he uses the same method against us today to get us off track, deceit, but that’s not what I want to discuss today. I want to talk about taking back our rightful place in God. The Bible says when Adam sinned, he became spiritually dead, and God planned to restore His relationship with His creation. For this reason, Jesus was sent to die on the cross for us. When we accept Christ into our lives we are Born Again of the spirit and the dominion we lost through Adam is restored. It’s a miraculous thing that occurs because now we have life in the Son. Ephesians 2:1-2 tells us: And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience. God never intended us to struggle as His Children. We belong to Him, and because we do, we have dominion and authority in the name of Jesus! Deuteronomy 28:13 tells us: And the Lord will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today , and are careful to observe them. This blog is inspired by Pastor Tamar Olmedo Martinez who preached this sermon at our Sunday night service.

Unity in the church is not just a preference; it’s a command from God. Jesus Himself prayed for our unity in John 17:21, saying, “that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.” Yet, the enemy thrives on division, seeking to infiltrate through weak or unsuspecting believers, bringing discord and disunity. The Enemy’s Strategy. Thriving on division Satan understands that a united church is a powerful force against his kingdom. His goal is to break the body of Christ apart because a divided church is weakened and ineffective. He knows that when believers turn against each other, they lose focus on their true mission, spreading the Gospel and glorifying God. Through lies, deception, and manipulation, he plants seeds of discord, encouraging pride, misunderstandings, and personal agendas over godly unity. The devil often uses subtle tactics to divide the body of Christ. Here are a few warning signs: ·       Miscommunication and Assumptions:  Misunderstandings that lead to unnecessary conflicts. Example: A member assumes they were intentionally excluded from an event, leading to resentment instead of seeking clarification. ·       Pride and Ego: Allowing personal desires to take precedence over collective harmony. Example: A leader refuses to accept correction, creating tension within the ministry team. ·       Isolation and Exclusion:  Keeping certain members at a distance instead of fostering inclusivity. Example: Newcomers feel ignored and struggle to integrate into church activities. ·       Neglect of Spiritual Discernment:  Reacting emotionally instead of seeking God’s guidance. Example: Making decisions based on personal feelings rather than biblical principles, leading to discord. ·       Spiritual Apathy: Lack of commitment to prayer, fellowship, and growth, weakening the church’s unity. Example: Members disengage from serving, leaving the burden on a few, causing frustration and burnout. Would You Allow Division in Your Home?  Imagine if someone came into your house and intentionally turned your family members against one another. Would you sit back and allow it? Absolutely not! The church is God’s house, and we must defend its unity with the same passion we would protect our own homes and relationships. Fighting in the Spirit The battle against division isn’t won by human arguments but through spiritual warfare. Here’s how we can fight back: ·       Pray for Unity: Ask God to bind us together in love and peace (Ephesians 4:3). ·       Speak Life: Use your words to uplift, encourage, and heal (Proverbs 18:21). ·       Walk in Forgiveness: Refuse to hold grudges and always seek reconciliation (Colossians 3:13). ·       Submit to God’s Word: Ensure that personal opinions never outweigh biblical truth (2 Timothy 3:16-17). ·       Expose the Enemy: Call out divisive behavior in love and redirect others toward unity (Titus 3:10). Engage With Us! What are some ways you've seen division try to creep into the church? How can we stand firm together to ensure the enemy finds no foothold?

The Greater Glory After the Shaking Life often brings seasons of shaking, times when everything we thought was stable begins to tremble. Relationships, careers, finances, and even our spiritual walk can go through storms. But in Haggai 2:6-9, God assures us that shaking is not meant to destroy us; it is meant to prepare us for greater glory. You may ask yourself: How is that possible? When God shakes things, He removes what is temporary and weak so that only what is eternal and strong stays. If you feel like your world has been shaken, take heart, God is making room for something greater! 1. The Shaking is Preparation for Glory “I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land; and I will shake all nations” (Haggai 2:6-7). Just as God shook the nations in Haggai’s time, He allows shaking in our lives to reposition us for His purposes. Often, we hold onto things that limit us, comfort zones, old mindsets, and even relationships that prevent us from fully walking in God’s will. The shaking is a divine reset. Yes, read that again—a divine reset, breaking attachments to what cannot carry us into the greater glory He has prepared. Consider Joseph—betrayed, enslaved, and imprisoned. But after the shaking, Joseph was promoted to a position of power in Egypt. His latter days were far greater than his former ones! 2. The Glory of the Latter House in Our Lives “The glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former” (Haggai 2:9). What does this mean for us? It means that no matter how glorious your past may have been, God has something even greater ahead. If you’ve experienced loss, disappointment, or brokenness, don’t dwell on what was, fix your eyes on what will be. God never restores to the same level, He always increases. Job, after losing everything, received double what he had before. The disciples, after losing Jesus to the cross, experienced the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, an even greater manifestation of God’s presence than when Jesus walked beside them. Whatever you’ve lost, whatever has been shaken, believe that God is bringing you into a new season of greater glory. 3. The Lord is Our Source “The silver is Mine, and the gold is Mine,” says the Lord of hosts" (Haggai 2:8). Sometimes, we fear the shaking because we don’t know how we will recover. But God reminds us that He is the owner of all things. He controls every resource, every opportunity, and every breakthrough. When God says He will fill your life with greater glory, He has the means to do it! Your provision is not in the hands of an employer, a government agency, or an economy—it is in the hands of the Lord of hosts, the One who owns all the silver and the gold. 4. Peace After the Shaking “And in this place I will give peace,” says the Lord of hosts" (Haggai 2:9). True peace is not the absence of storms but the presence of God in the midst of them—Pastor Armando Olmedo. After the shaking comes peace, the kind that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). You may be in a storm right now, but peace is coming. God’s peace is not just external; it is an internal assurance that He is in control. The shaking will end, and when it does, you will stand in a place of greater glory with greater faith, greater testimony, and greater peace. Stand in Expectation of Greater Glory! The shaking is not your downfall, it is your divine setup! What may feel like loss is preparation for a greater breakthrough. The glory of your latter days will  surpass your former days. God’s peace, provision, and power are already being released over your life! Reflect & Declare: 🔹  What areas of your life have been shaken?  Trust that God is clearing the way for something greater. 🔹  Where have you experienced loss?  Declare with confidence: The latter glory will be greater than the former! 🔹  Are you worried about provision?  Remember, the silver and gold belong to God—He is your ultimate source! No matter what you have faced, greater glory is ahead!  Hold fast to His promise, stand firm in faith, and step boldly into your new season of peace, power, and purpose. Your best days are not behind you—they are right in front of you!
