“As a man thinketh in his heart so is he (for as he thinks in his heart, so is he).”
“the bible tells us as a man think it that is what you become”
A Sunday message calling the church to be God’s spiritual building—built on Jesus and held together by committed service and God’s mercy—with practical calls to prayer, repentance, unity, faithful stewardship, and participation in church life.
“as a man think it so is he”
A call for the church to awaken, ‘roar’ and drive out spiritual inhabitants (strongholds) by prayer, obedience and evangelistic action; includes teaching on obedience (tithing) bringing supernatural provision, an invitation to repentance/salvation, and an altar call for targeted prayer ministry.
“As a man thinketh in his heart so is he (for as he thinks in his heart, so is he).”
Pastor Branson delivers a direct call-to-arms: heaven has declared war against spiritual and cultural forces attacking families and children. He explains biblical precedent (Judges 5), diagnoses contemporary threats (sexualization, gender ideology, trafficking, erosion of parental rights), and urges the church to enlist through prayer, practical action, generosity (support for rescue efforts like Operation Underground Railroad / the film Sound of Freedom), discipleship, and the upcoming Gen One conference.
“Don't waste your breath on fools, for they will despise the wisest advice.”
Using Israel's journey as a model, the sermon teaches the principle of choosing battles wisely: pass through distractions and foolish provocations, and reserve strength for the fights that advance God's purposes—illustrated by when Israel was told to avoid some peoples and to engage others.
“Who has anguish... who has bloodshot eyes? Those who linger long over wine... don't gaze at wine... for in the end it bites like a poisonous snake, and it stinks like a viper.”
A pastoral conversation distinguishing biblical commands from man-made rules and giving practical, Scripture-based guidance on alcohol, tattoos, and marijuana—emphasizing conscience, community impact, sobriety, and pursuing closeness to Jesus rather than merely testing boundaries.
