Pastor Robert Madu talked about the many ways you can be spiritually sleepy: little to no desire to pray, desire to be served rather than serve others, and isolating yourself from the community of believers. What steps are you taking to stay in God's word?
My sermon notes for " I didn't know I feel asleep" : 1.) Don't despise small beginnings. When God starts something small, it can get big 2.) Sometimes you may be thinking "God could you pour out more" and he will respond telling you he's not lacking for depth of content to pour out but so you have the capacity to receive what it is he wants to pour out in your life. Do you prepare yourself before you come into the house of God? Prepare yourself before getting into service, have enough oil to burn all night. Do you have some expectations (oil) for your lamp? Do you have proof of your expectations? You need to start setting the atmosphere with your expectations 3.) Community is important, when you are in a dark place, you need somebody to praise with you 4.) It has nothing to do with the seed, and everything to with the soil that it is sown in. 5.) You have to be careful when you have open windows, you can't fight sleep with a window seat. Your intention will get you in the room but it's your attention and will keep you in the room 6.) You have to keep on fighting, don't let the things around you put you to sleep 7.) Signs that you are falling asleep spiritually: 1.) You have little or no desire to pray, 2.) You have a lost of appetite for reading the word of God, 3.) you are no longer convinced of willful sin, 4.) You desire to be served rather than serve others, 5.) You are easily offended,6.) You are avoiding accountability,7.) You are comparing yourself to others, 8.) You are spreading or entertaining gossip, 9.) You are isolating yourself from community of other believers 8.) No matter what has held you down, you can get up too. You are not defined by your mistakes. God is still in the business of raising things that are dead back to life

This song is SO TIMELY for my family and I! My 13 year old sister has cancer, and Sunday I had gotten a call from my parents asking to gather all of my siblings to come and say our goodbyes… We prayed, we asked for a miracle, and here we are 5 days later and my sister has made a MIRACULOUS recovery and doctors are in AWE!
*I was paralyzed in bed last year and I heard Jesus say out loud to me - If you believe in me get up and walk💜🕊💜 I got up and not only walked but went for a walk outside. Praise God!!!!! GOD IS ALWAYS WORKING!!!! ✌💜🕊🙏*
was homeless, did drugs, went into prison, where I got to know God. He changed my life. Now I have a home, a wife and a lovely year old daughter (Zoe), and a stream of income that gets me $32,000 Weekly. Plus a new identity - a child of God. Hallelujah!!!
Father please give our children people who will sit with them and will hearken to not fall asleep while you guide them. You chose us and reconciled us to make one with you and made us a royal priesthood. Your truth is our light and our life. I love you. Amen
My first visit to Elevation, Right on time which means I ended up in overflow. As I was feeling self pity the man sitting beside me told me he had traveled 10 miles from a homeless shelter. It really put me in my place 😊 Thank you ❤️
I’ve been struggling. I needed this word. I’m so thankful for this church the Pastors the worship team and all who make this possiblel. I needed this so much. As ppl we need this.💛
Been traveling around the United States and the Lord completely has guided our journey. His discernment and guidance has saved us through so many situations that could have been catastrophic. Still on that journey and we are relying on our Lord's direction. This serman was almost erie with our situation we just over came we fell asleep and we're very shortly smacked with realization that we should have paid more attention. But he has gotten us back on the road once again. If you could pray for my wife and I for safe travels.
Sometimes I don’t have words because I don’t know how to preach and I have Tried everything that I believe God has for me . I’m gonna grow in my little faith . But i kept silent and I don’t talk my pain . But it’s hard to be the center of everyone’s expectations but I hope that I endure everyone’s center of judgment and criticism. But I will and know I will fight my Sobriety and health . Im glad and happy for everyone salvation and support.
I was homeless, got into drugs, went into prisons, then i got to know Jesus, He changed my life.. Now i have a home, a wife, a lovely daughter and a new identity... A child of God.. Hallelujah
Lord have mercy on me. Please remove the devil from me forever and never let him come back. Banish him from my life and mind forever. Please God I am begging you to remove the devil from me permanently

I went online with the expectation that God was going to talk to me through one of his soldiers. I needed direction. I was despretly looking for his word. I needed him to speak to me. I found multiple messages back to back and my last one brought me to this one. And this one scaffolded into what God was telling me. Amen, Amen, Amen, and this is how God spoke to me. Amen, Amen, Amen.
Yes heavenly Father does give 7, 20, 30 provisions. I have been given it. He gives reminders to be ready. Between time is the one next steps to it & reminder to the next step of your season. This my testimony

Prayers for daughter sister& niece college studies, sick family & friends, niece as new mom , work decisions and guidance and marriage to apply what we learn @wtr
This service is great and just want to say let all Christians be able to know such great words because it is not just the words of importance to know and, or learn with these kinds of teachings as Christians... It is just as important to know the differences between having a woken mind for self, and all other Christians who might not know the importance of such powerful words that provide a woke love to all Christian people... to be human with humanity in Christian form better love to one another as human beings and not just Christians that should know...being human matters more than most might ever learn to know because to be human is to be for all people with the love of humanity and Christianity It should mean to be as human as possible to each other and one another as human beings and not just Christianity... This is what was learned at service and for it...just trying to say, as always to all human beings of Christianity...it is better to try to 😊 🤗 as human beings while trying to be better at learning Christianity as a human Thank you all for today's great service! Praise 👏 with Hallelujah for saying this humanity of words! 😊
This message was for me because I am looking at death because of the miserable trials I’m under. I need prayers to Stand up and hold onto my faith in Jesus power to give life snd Joy abundant. Praise a Jesus.
Father give me a new perspective of you and your word give me understanding and guidance lord help me to wake up spiritually give me a new heart and help me to have new positive thoughts help me to love myself and others help me to want to serve and do more father and thank you so much for loving me choosing me guiding teaching and being a father to me
🎉🎉❤🦋I’m so thankful for every pastor! This church has blessed blessed blessed me so thankful for Gods word through people. I love this church and my church in Alamogordo nm. Christ community church
I believe it was the book of acts. And natural sleep is when you are tired/sleepy but spiritual sleep isn’t very different, it’s when you are being tempted and are tired of fighting the devil so like Eutychus you fall to those temptations. I’ve been battling addiction for so many years and didn’t know I was spiritually asleep, but recently I have found Christ and the same way Paul revived eutychus god has revived me. I’ve been sober for a while now and I try to thank god everyday. But that doesn’t mean I don’t get spiritually sleepy sometimes I am tempted less now but the devil lurks and he waits and he tries , but with god you can overcome all things 🙌🏾🙌🏾 . I thank god for waking me up , and I thank god for your comment so I can speak my testimony. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I'll tell you what we just connected with my beautiful niece she has a family that almost looks just like yours and just like I've always wanted you got any single brothers😊😊😊😊
