RESCUE RADIO with Marjorie Cole

Fear, worry, doubt, and confusion can feel like your own thoughts—but should you believe them?
Marjorie and Jarry Cole talk about the battle for your mind, the difference between the carnal mind and the Spirit, and how to recognize thoughts that do not agree with God's truth.
A simple question can change the way you respond: Who said that?

Not every thought deserves your agreement.
Fear says, “I can’t do this.”Worry says, “What if something goes wrong?”Confusion says, “I don’t know what to do.”
Before you accept those thoughts, ask: Who said that?
Test what you are thinking against the Word of God and look at the fruit.
Does it bring peace, truth, hope, and confidence?
Or does it bring fear, doubt, confusion, and double-mindedness?
Take the thought captive. Reject the lie. Listen to the Holy Spirit.
There are two kingdoms, not three. Know who is talking to you.

Why does so much of the church look powerless when Jesus gave His followers authority and a clear assignment?
Marjorie and Jarry Cole talk about what has happened to the church’s calling to preach the Gospel, heal the sick, cast out demons, and walk in the power of the Holy Spirit.
The power has not disappeared. The question is whether we are willing to believe God, follow Jesus, and do what He told us to do.

SHOW NOTES
Where are the miracles? Where is the power? And why aren’t we acting like the church Jesus established?
Jesus did not call us to sit on the sidelines.
He told us to preach the Gospel, heal the sick, cast out demons, and make His kingdom known.
We have become distracted, passive, afraid, and busy with things that may look important but have little to do with what Jesus actually commanded us to do.
The church is not a building. We are the church.
Your workplace is a mission field. Your family is a mission field. Wherever God has placed you, you are there to be light.
Go back to the Word of God. Let the Holy Spirit examine your heart. Repent of unbelief and hardness of heart.
Then get off the bench.
Rescue. Restore. Release.
That is what the church was called to do.

Why do some prayers seem to go unanswered? Prayer is more than worrying out loud to God. We need to know what God says, know what we are asking for, and stop allowing past disappointments to keep us from praying again.

One of the biggest obstacles to answered prayer can be all the unanswered prayers behind us.
We prayed before. Nothing seemed to happen. Someone didn't get healed. The situation didn't change. And little by little we begin expecting nothing.
Then prayer turns into worrying out loud to God.
But God has called us to something more.
Prayer needs to begin with His will, not ours. We need to listen to the Holy Spirit, know what God has said, and then pray specifically.
Don't just repeat the problem.
What are you asking God to do?
Peter didn't tell the lame man, “I hope things get better.” He said, “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.”
Specific need. Specific prayer. Specific answer.
And if you are struggling with unbelief, don't hide it. Bring that to God too.
“Lord, help my unbelief.”
Ask Him what is standing in the way. Deal with unforgiveness. Deal with disappointment. Deal with double-mindedness. Then come boldly to the throne of grace and pray again.
It's time to get out of vague, passive praying.
As Jarry put it in this program, we need some “hardcore praying.”
Listen to God. Know His Word. Pray specifically. Pray boldly. And don't give up because yesterday's prayer didn't look like it was answered.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done—on earth, in and through us.

#UnansweredPrayer #PowerOfPrayer #SpiritualWarfare

Family can be one of our greatest blessings—and one of our greatest battlegrounds.
The enemy knows how powerful families are, so one of his favorite strategies is to turn us against each other.
He uses words, offenses, old hurts, judgments, opinions, rejection, politics, religion, divorce, and family history to keep us divided.
So what do we do?
First, pray.
You don't have to cram the Gospel down somebody's throat. You don't have to win every argument. And you don't have to fix your relatives.
Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is simply live your life for Jesus and be the light.
Love them. Forgive them. Don't take the bait of offense. Don't judge them because they aren't where you think they should be.
There is a time to speak and a time to be quiet. Ask the Holy Spirit what love looks like in that situation.
And when you go back into a difficult family environment, remember who you are. You are first a son or daughter of God. You don't have to go back into the old guilt, fear, shame, people-pleasing, or responsibility to fix everybody.
Joseph was betrayed by his own brothers, but he eventually saw that God was able to take what was meant for evil and turn it for good.
So forgive before they ask.
Pray for the prodigals.
Believe God for your family.
And above all, be the light without becoming the judge.

One of the biggest problems we have is that we don't know who we are.
The enemy loves identity theft. If he can convince you that you are your failures, your fears, your sins, your past, or what somebody said about you, he can keep you confused about your purpose and your destiny.
But your identity does not begin with what happened to you.
It begins with God.
God deliberately made you in His image and likeness. You were not an accident. You were not a mistake. You have an origin, an identity, an assignment, and a purpose.
We have to stop saying, “I am depressed. I am afraid. I am a failure. I am an addict. I am no good.”
Those things may describe something you are struggling with, but they do not define who you are.
Go back to the Word of God.
You are chosen. You are redeemed. You are loved. You are God's workmanship. And through faith in Jesus Christ, you are a son or daughter of the living God.
So whose report are you going to believe?
God has a plan for your life. Satan has a plan to destroy it.
Know who you are. Know who God is. Forgive. Repent. And walk in the truth.

#IdentityInChrist #WhoAmIInChrist #SpiritualWarfare

Throughout the Bible, trumpets sounded an alarm, gathered God's people, announced a king, warned of approaching danger, and called people to repentance.
The Feast of Trumpets points us to something we cannot afford to ignore: Jesus is coming back.
We don't have to be frightened or spend our time trying to calculate the exact day. Jesus told us to watch and be ready.
The question is not, Can I figure out the date?
The question is, Am I ready if He comes?
This is a time to wake up, repent, surrender your life to Jesus, and stop putting off what God has already told you to do.
And while we're waiting, we have work to do. We are to preach the Gospel, make disciples, heal the sick, cast out demons, and be about our Father's business.
Listen for the trumpet. Watch. Pray. And be ready.

#FeastOfTrumpets #Rapture #ReturnOfJesus

Have you ever looked around and wondered, “God, why are they getting by with this?”
Jeremiah asked it. David asked it. The writer of Psalm 73 asked it. So this isn't a new question.
The problem is that when we keep looking at the wicked, the injustice, and everything that seems wrong, we can get angry, distracted, discouraged, and pulled into a fight God never asked us to fight.
Psalm 37 tells us: Don't fret because of evildoers. Trust in the Lord. Do good. Rest in Him.
Nobody is getting by with anything. There is a day of reckoning, and every one of us will give an account to God.
But there is also mercy.
If you are still breathing, you can repent. You can forsake the lies, the habits, the opinions, and the ways that have been leading you in the wrong direction. God can change your mind, change your direction, and give you a new way to live.
We need to wake up. Stop letting the world tell us what is true. Stop building our lives around our own opinions. Go back to the Word of God.
It isn't our opinion that matters. It's God's truth that matters.

#WhyDoTheWickedProsper #BiblicalTruth #SpiritualWarfare

We are living in a day when the fear of the Lord has nearly disappeared. People want God on their terms, but God is still God. His Word is still true, and every one of us is accountable to Him.
The fear of the Lord is not about running away from God because we are scared of Him. It is knowing who He is, reverencing Him, loving what He loves, hating what He hates, and wanting to please Him.
The Bible says the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Without it, we are left with foolishness, deception, and our own ideas about what is right and wrong.
In this program, Jarry and I talk about why the fear of the Lord matters, how it protects us from foolish decisions and sin, and why we need to stop letting the world tell us who God is.
God is not calling us to religious perfectionism. He is calling us to follow Jesus, repent, surrender our lives to Him, and walk in the truth.
The fear of the Lord is not death. It is a fountain of life. It brings wisdom, confidence, refuge, direction, and the courage to make the right decision when everything around us is telling us to do otherwise.
It is time to take God seriously, take His Word seriously, and remember that there really is a war for your soul.

#FearOfTheLord #BiblicalWisdom #SpiritualWarfare

Jesus talked a lot about what we can look forward to. Paul and Isaiah gave us a glimpse of the future for those who love and look for the Lord's return. "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him." 
"For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former thing shall not be remembered or come to mind, but be glad and rejoice forever in what I create;" (Is 65:17) 
Jesus teaches us that those who mourn, are hungry, and suffer persecution will be comforted, filled, and rewarded for the suffering they endured. 
 
Look at what you are looking at. Are you getting bogged down by the disappointments and struggles in your life? Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but the desire accomplished is sweet to the soul. Rejoice; we have so many promises to look forward to.

The people of Jeremiah's day considered the word of the Lord to be a reproach. They were given to greed, and everyone dealt falsely with their neighbor. No one was radical for the truth, or, as we would say in our time, no one was radical for Jesus, who is the truth. 
 
We contrast that with the conversion of the Apostle Paul, who was not lukewarm, but already radical for the religious self-righteous version of God's law. He had everything going for him in his religious zeal but was not passionate for the Christ he found himself resisting, until the day he was struck down. He realized he was not following the revelation of God's new commandment as given by Jesus Christ. 
 
Paul let go of the things he assumed were of heavenly value and now counted them as refuse. He traded those achievements for the excellence of the knowledge of Jesus. This radical encounter with the risen Christ turned him in the opposite direction. It will do the same for you!
