You can sustain a permanent change & overcome the stubborn areas of your life! I'm going to show you HOW.

Do you have areas of your life that you wonder if they will ever change? I know for myself I struggled with different things for years searching for breakthrough and change. Fears that seemed to hinder me, rejection, stress, perfectionism, and other things. We are all in a process.

The enemy tries to lie to all of us at one point or another. He knows that if he can get us to agree with a lie, he can lock us in a mental stronghold that will hinder the true freedom of God in our lives.

Did you know you have more than one brain? That’s right. You actually have three! And God communicates uniquely to each one.

Understanding the love walk can GREATLY REDUCE THE STRESS IN YOUR LIFE. Keep reading to find out more...I'm going to give you 3 LIFE KEYS that can change everything.

Many of us have been wired by God as “feelers”. We have a natural intuitive ability, as well as the ability to sense and feel in the spirit realm, as well as feel the emotions of others and the spiritual atmosphere they walk in.

Many of us have been wired by God as “feelers”. We have a natural intuitive ability, as well as the ability to sense and feel in the spirit realm, as well as feel the emotions of others and the spiritual atmosphere they walk in.

One of the things I often hear as I travel is, "I long for a leader in my life that will believe in me and encourage me to get to where God is calling me." I am also asked, "Matt, are you able to mentor me and impart into my life?"

Angels are a very real part of the spirit realm. They are constantly functioning on your behalf fighting and warring for you to be victorious and overcome.

I’ll never forget the first time I experienced the prophetic anointing. I was a freshman in college. We were having a prayer meeting in one of the dorm rooms. As we were holding hands in a circle praying, it felt like someone through a blanket over my head. The feeling was so real I opened my eyes.

For years I struggled with feelings of oppression. At times it just felt like I was being suffocated. I could feel a heaviness on my chest making it difficult to breath. I could even feel a heaviness over my head and mind. It seemed that no matter what I did, I just couldn’t break through and get it to leave.

Anger is something we all deal with from time to time. Sometimes there are more stressful situations happening in our lives that causes more anger to surface. Under stress we all have a greater potential for anger.

Being a prophet, or prophesying to people God’s heart includes much more than the words you speak. It’s really the life that you live. Your life is a prophetic word to others.

“Bitterness is a result of clinging to negative experiences. It serves you no good and closes the door to your future.” - Leon Brown

I recently posted this on my Facebook Page and it got viewed by over 101,000 people in five days! That statistic spoke something to me. This is an issue many people are dealing with or they know someone who is dealing with it and it is somehow affecting their lives. 

Turning Stumbling Stones into Stepping Stones
Prophetic Teaching by Matt Sorger

“God is about to take a painful situation in your life and bring something good from it. Your pain is about to turn into joy.” 

We all have war stories we can share. The question isn’t whether or not you have a war story. The question is, weather you have remained a victim or allowed God to work in your circumstance. Circumstances or even the actions of other people can never stop God’s plan for your life. But if you keep a pure heart and allow God to heal you in your journey, God can cause every stumbling stone to be a stepping stone to promotion and fulfillment. Don’t give up in the midst of your present moment. Live by every word God has spoken to you. He will be faithful to work all things together for your good. You can’t help but win!

A Prophetic Teaching by Matt Sorger

One of the things I have valued most in my life is the role of spiritual fathers and mothers. I will never forget the day I sat down with Lou Engle, the father of The Call Movement, and shared my heart and vision with him. I was a young 28 year old pastor who had a dream to see signs and wonders in the nations. As I shared my vision, Lou looked at me with his full attention and heart and said, “Matt! Go for it!” That was all I needed to hear. To have the blessing of a spiritual father made a tremendous impact on my life. Something as simple as a word of encouragement gave me a new level of determination to pursue God’s will and call on my life. I honor Lou as a spiritual father in the faith. Not only is he a tremendous visionary, but he was humble enough to encourage a young person to go after God with all of their heart. And that young person was me.

God Possess Every Molecule in My Body!

I was 18 years old at the time. I was on my first missions trip at an orphanage in Mexico. One night a small group of us went to the roof of the orphanage and spent hours worshipping God. I prayed a prayer that night that changed my life forever. I was so hungry for God’s presence and wanted to be so surrendered and filled with Him that I began to pray for God to possess every fiber of my being. I wanted every cell in my body to be full of the Holy Spirit. As I prayed this prayer I could feel the raw, electric power of God filling every molecule in my body. It was a full Holy Spirit possession. I cried out, “God possess every molecule in my body!” And He did.

Prophetic Teaching by Matt Sorger

As we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, I want you to understand that you were created to live in that same resurrection power. Ephesians teaches that we have been raised with Christ and are seated in heavenly places with Him. We have been blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ in the heavenly realm. It’s a past tense accomplished fact. You are not fighting FOR victory, but FROM victory. Too many Christians have a concept of spiritual warfare where they are fighting to get a breakthrough. The reality is, you already have the breakthrough. Jesus died on the cross and stripped the enemy of his power and authority and made an open show of him. The victory has already been won. The enemy has been spoiled and overthrown. As a believer seated in heavenly places in Christ, you are simply administrating the finished work of Christ on the cross. You are establishing on earth what has already been established in heaven. You are ruling from the heavenly place and have already received every spiritual blessing including righteousness, holiness, peace, joy, healing, and provision. Everything you need has already been deposited in your spiritual account. You simply need to receive it. You receive it by knowing what you have and making a withdrawal from your account.

A Teaching by Matt Sorger

When it comes to spiritual freedom and walking in complete deliverance from evil, it is so important that we learn how to guard the gates of our lives. The gates are the doorways through which either light or darkness enters into our hearts, minds, souls, bodies and spirits. The enemy can only build a habitation where there is darkness. So if we are careful not to allow darkness into our gates, the battle is nearly completely won!

A lot of the spiritual warfare people deal with is caused by not properly guarding their gates. Let me be specific. The gates are your eyes, ears and mouth. It is through these portals that either light or darkness enters, based on what we look upon with our eyes, listen to with our ears, or speak about with our mouths.

Years ago my life was impacted listening to a prophetic teaching tape by John Paul Jackson. During those early years God was introducing me to the prophetic movement and anointing. I remember after listening to that tape, stepping out and prophesying over people with genuine accuracy. Not only did I learn about the prophetic, but I caught an impartation of the prophetic anointing. It was amazing. 

John Paul Jackson was a general in the prophetic movement and held a solid plumb line to God's word. I honor him in both his life and in his home going and thank God for the impact he's had on my life and the lives of so many others.

“God’s favor will open the doors you are supposed to walk through and shut the doors that would lead you down the wrong path.” - Matt Sorger

God wants to release radical, abundant favor upon your life and extravagantly overwhelm you with His goodness. There are keys to experiencing this supernatural grace.

Several years ago the Lord spoke to me in a time of prayer that He had called me to media. When He spoke this to my heart, He also said, “I don’t want you knocking on the door of any media networks. I am going to bring them to you.” I knew I needed to just saturate it in prayer before Him

Prophetic Teaching by Matt Sorger

God has a unique expression of the anointing He wants to release through you. I learned years ago that when you see the anointing moving through someone, you are not just seeing the anointing, you are also seeing the personality through which that anointing is flowing. When God created you He designed you with a specific personality and temperament. Your temperament is God given and received at birth. It’s the foundation of your soul and inward motivations. Your personality is the combination of your temperament as well as environmental influences around you that have helped shape who you are. Temperaments rarely change, but personalities can be refined and transformed into greater Christlikeness.

Prophetic Insights into 2015

Get ready to possess double for your trouble. Inheritances are being released!

2015 will be a year of a double portion inheritance. God is going to end the warfare of your past season and release a double portion from His hand. He is going before His people and clearing out all the obstacles. Every mountain will be brought low and every valley will be raised up. God is removing plots and assignments that the enemy has set against us. God is clearing them out before we get there. God is making straight and smooth paths before us. The glory of the Lord shall be revealed. Key Double Portion Scriptures: Isa 40:1-5 and Isa 61:7

“There is a dimension in the glory where demons, depression, worry, fear, and doubt can’t touch you!” ~ Matt Sorger

The glory of God is a divine insulation that not only fills you, but also surrounds you. God’s light and presence can keep you from all evil, seen and unseen. There is a dimension in the glory where demons, depression, worry, fear, and doubt can’t touch you! I have discovered in scripture a secret to even overcoming sickness and premature death. It’s one thing to experience divine healing, it’s another thing to live in divine health. There is a higher place, a higher dimension in the Spirit we can all live in.

OVERCOME SICKNESS & PREMATURE DEATH
There are Christians experiencing sickness and premature death. Paul talks about this in 1 Corinthians 11:30 where he says, “That is the reason many...

By Matt Sorger

Do you ever feel like there is something standing in the way between you and your destiny? Maybe it’s a circumstance, or the actions of others, or something within your own self that you struggle with. You are not alone. Every person, including myself, that has crossed over into their promised land of purpose and destiny has faced challenges along the way. When God called Israel to enter into their promised land, they didn’t just stroll into their inheritance. Yes, God had promised them an amazing land. But it was occupied by giants. Israel had to face these giants in order to receive the goodness God had for them.

Practical Insights into Carrying the Glory of God

A Teaching by Matt Sorger

There is a place in God where you can live out of the overflow. God doesn’t want to give you just enough anointing and presence so you can experience personal breakthrough. He wants to give you more than that! You can be so full of the Holy Spirit that His presence is overflowing out of your inner spirit man, into every area of your soul and body and then into the space around you. As His presence overflows from within you, your breakthrough becomes a breakthrough for someone else. The anointing that empowers you can overflow outside of you bringing healing and freedom to those you come into contact with.
So how do we get there? How do we get to the point where we move beyond private and personal breakthrough to being so full of the Holy Spirit that we become carriers of His glory. Here are some important keys I have learned over the years.

Overcome the Stubborn Areas of Your Life!

God doesn’t just want to give you momentary relief. He wants to give you a permanent transformation. It is possible to experience total freedom from every demonic harassment and from every inherited weakness. You can be free from the influence of demonic spirits as well as overcome the weaknesses of the sinful nature. You can have a demon removed from your life, but you can’t cast yourself out. Self has to undergo a very deep transformation. God doesn’t just want to make you a better you. He wants to make you completely new. From the scriptures and from my own experience of walking twenty six years with God I have learned that true lasting freedom is the result of both spiritual deliverance and inner transformation.

You don’t have to live in an atmosphere of depression, turmoil, negativity, doubt or fear. You can live in the atmosphere of God’s glory! I want to teach you today eight keys that will attract God’s glory to your life and build a consistent habitation of His presence. You can experience the atmosphere of heaven within and around you. When you shift your atmosphere, you transform your life.

1. Spiritual hunger.
The first key that attracts God’s presence to you is spiritual hunger. God promises to fill those who hunger and thirst for righteousness. There’s something about a hungry, thirsty heart that will cause God to pour out His glory on you. I consistently stir up my spiritual hunger by asking Him to fill me every day with His presence. I’ve also noticed when ministering to congregations that those who passionately pursue God in worship and whose hearts are filled with hunger for God receive the greatest outpourings.

Prophetic teaching by Matt Sorger

There was a time in my life I would wreck every family vacation. I would spend all my time fighting territorial spirits, principalities and demonic entities. As a young person I had a very intuitive, discerning spirit. Because of that I could feel everything in the spirit realm. I lived under a constant sense of spiritual warfare. I was always having to rebuke oppression off of myself. This battle became very wearisome. I was operating in a genuine gift of discernment, but my focus had become so demonic that I lived in constant spiritual warfare. Then one day God made a statement to me. He said, “You can live in warfare or you can live in My glory. The choice is yours.” I didn’t even know I had a choice! God brought me through a powerful season of learning to operate in my discernment in a very balanced and joyous way.

This teaching article will take you about one minute to read. It may be the most important one minute of your day. Get ready to have your mind blown by God.

There is a place in God where you can access and live in the unlimited power of the Holy Spirt. Paul’s prayer and teaching in Ephesians gives us the keys that unlock the surpassing greatness of God’s power in our lives.

Prophetic Teaching by Matt Sorger

We are in a prophetic season where God is releasing new mantles upon some and activating existing mantles on others. I want to share some revelation regarding moving to your next level of spiritual authority and power and walking in the fullness of your mantle.

There is a general “authority of the believer” that we all have through faith in Christ. But not everyone actually walks in the same level of spiritual authority. The enemy can see and perceive in the spirit realm the level of authority you walk in. He can see the level of consecration, glory and presence you carry on your life. He can also equally perceive the level of compromise and sin that is in your life. The deeper your life is submitted to God, the greater the level of authority and power you will walk in.

There is a progression that takes place in each of our lives of being called, anointed and entrusted with spiritual authority and influence. We can see this in the life of David. David was not just anointed once to be king of Israel. He went through a progression of anointings that caused him to ultimately rule as king. David was anointed three times before he stepped into his ultimate level of spiritual authority.

Prophetic Teaching by Matt Sorger

God is transitioning the church from a “revival culture” to a “resurrection power culture”. There is a difference between the two. A culture is a set of beliefs, values, practices, mindsets, actions, and behaviors practiced and esteemed by a group of people. Culture marks and characterizes your way of life.

Prophetically God is bringing His people into the time of the “third day.” If there is a third day, then there must be a first and a second day. I want to explain to you what this means and how it will impact your life in this next season.

Hosea 6:1-2 “Come and let us return to the Lord, for He has torn so that He may heal us; He has stricken so that He may bind us up. After two days He will revive us (quicken us, give us life); on the third day He will raise us up that we may live before Him. [Isa. 26:19; Ezek. 37:1-10.]

2014 will be a year where the body of Christ walks into the manifest goodness of God. The Lord spoke to me that He was closing old doors and opening new ones. The doors of your past, He is closing and sealing with the Blood, never to be opened again. And He is opening a new door in front of you, a door that will lead you into the goodness of God. This year will be a year where you not only believe by faith to see the negative turn for your good, but you will walk into the manifestation of it. This will be a year where the goodness of God is manifested in your life.

LET GO OF OFFENSES
It is vital to let go of all offense and unforgiveness and have a clear heart and spirit. The enemy seeks to stir up offenses to clog you up and hinder you from receiving the blessings God has for you. Choose to release and wipe the slate clean. You will be free to enter the new doors God opens.

“One of the best open discussions I have ever been a part of!”
~ James Goll

There was a time in my life I would wreck every family vacation. I would spend all my time fighting territorial spirits, principalities and demonic entities. As a young person I had a very intuitive, discerning spirit. Because of that I could feel everything in the spirit realm. I lived under a constant sense of spiritual warfare. I was always having to rebuke oppression off of myself. This battle became very wearisome. I was operating in a genuine gift of discernment, but my focus had become so demonic that I lived in constant spiritual warfare. Then one day God made a statement to me. He said, “You can live in warfare or you can live in My glory. The choice is yours.” I didn’t even know I had a choice! God brought me through a powerful season of learning to operate in my discernment in a very balanced and joyous way.

When I was in my freshman year of college, the Lord spoke something very deep to my heart.  He told me that the top of my list was the bottom of His, and the bottom of His list was the top of mine. At the top of His list was the refinement of my character, not the fulfillment of my ministry. He told me that He was going to cause my roots to go down so deep in Him that when success came to my life, I would not be moved. For years after receiving that word, I walked through some very deep refining fires in my life. God dealt with character issues in me that would become the foundation upon which He would release His power in me and through me. God first gave me the power to live holy and consecrated, and then He released His power through me to see others deeply touched by His presence. Even to this day character development is a daily process.

You can carry so much of God on your life that when you walk into a room, God walks in with you. Or better yet, when you walk into a hospital, a supermarket, a neighborhood, a city, God walks in with you and fills the territory with His tangible presence and power. This level of glory was not just for Jesus. When Peter walked into the city, all the sick and demonized came out into the streets just to have Peter’s shadow pass by them. Peter walked in such a glory zone that his shadow was dangerous. His shadow healed the sick and cast out demons. This is seen in Acts 5:15-16. God has created us

There is a moral rift in the foundation of our nation. But the Bible is very clear that judgement begins with the house of God.

1 Peter 4:17 “For the time [has arrived] for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins with us, what will [be] the end of those who do not respect or believe or obey the good news (the Gospel) of God?

God’s judgements are good. Judgement is different from wrath. Wrath is God’s destruction against sin. Judgement is God’s righteous discipline bringing...

The question is how do we remain relevant in a changing world to most effectively reach this generation? In order to remain relevant there are two important spiritual issues we need to talk about. This goes way beyond how we look and what means we use to get the gospel message out. It touches our core values as believers. One thing I have noticed the Holy Spirit doing in His church is readjusting and refocusing our vision. Leaders are realizing that if the church is to continue to grow and be healthy our vision cannot only be inward, but it must be outward as well.

Transitioning Into and Preparing for Spiritual Awakening
Rosh Hashanah is one of the highest holy days on the Jewish calendar. I have come to understand that God works in times and seasons and never does anything haphazardly. Over the last eight years since God first launched us out into the healing ministry I always noticed that each year September would be a significant month spiritually for us. It was in September of 2002 that our ministry was birthed and each September following God has brought a significant change and transition. It was only this last year that I discovered that September marks the first month of the original Jewish calendar with Rosh Hashanah marking the first day of the New Year. I gained a revelation and understanding that the Jewish Feasts and Holy Days mark important times and seasons in the Spirit. God still works in line with His original calendar.

Transitioning from “Revival Culture” to “Resurrection Power Culture”
by Matt Sorger

Saturday, March 6, 2010, during a time of worship the Lord spoke to my heart. I was caught up in His presence when the voice of God spoke these three things to me:

We will never experience the true fire of the Holy Spirit without close fellowship with Him.
You can live a life of extraordinary, supernatural power! The secret is actually quite simple. God’s power is obtained through a lifestyle of intimacy with Him.

Jesus understood the connection between power and intimacy. Luke 5:15-16 says, “Great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their infirmities. So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed” (NKJV).

Over the last several months the Lord has impressed a word on my heart. That word is PRESS. I have been sensing very strong from the Lord that a new hour of increase is upon us. The Lord wants to place a new level of authority, power and glory upon people. But we have been in a season of PRESSING THROUGH to the BREAKTHROUGH. August through September will be crucial to make this push through into the next season God has for us. It is a time to consecrate yourself in a fresh and deeper way before the Lord. It is a time to wait before Him and allow Him to deal with every obstacle in your life. Allow His Spirit to search out hidden attitudes and sins so that your life is clean and pure before Him. This preparation will bring you into a place where the enemy has nothing in you and you are prepared and ready for the increase God wants to entrust to you.

Personal Reflections
by Matt Sorger

I am witnessing an alarming trend in some of our charismatic circles and services. I travel full time on the road all across the United States and other parts of the world. Each week I am ministering in another state to a new group of hungry believers wanting to live in the fullness of God’s Spirit. Several times in the last few months I have encountered a disturbing and grievous observation. Before I share it with you, let me give you some of my personal background.

The conference was AMAZING (to say the least)! Matt Sorger, Joshua Mills, and James Goll ministered with the fire and power of Holy Ghost. We all witnessed heaven touching the earth this past weekend. How awesome it was. The worship of Steve Swanson and Catherine Mullins opened the heavens and the glory of God fell and touched many in powerful and innumerous ways. If you were not present, I highly suggest you get the DVDs and CDs of the conference! God’s people were equipped, set free, and many left transformed with new hearts. God placed His super on MSM’s natural and revival mantles, blueprints from heaven, and new wine was released upon all present.

One of the characteristics that will mark this fresh outpouring of God’s Spirit is a revival of the fear of the Lord. The fear of the Lord is vital in order to live a successful and vibrant Christian life. It doesn’t rob the joy out of your life. In fact, it causes you to live your life to its fullest potential in God and releases supernatural joy, peace and prosperity! There are many benefits to living a life filled with a healthy and holy fear of God. The true fear of the Lord is to hate all evil. It is to love everything that God loves and to hate everything that He hates. This standard and plumb line of righteousness and truth will keep you strong when you are tempted to compromise what is right. It will cause you to overcome in life and fulfill everything God has for you to be and to do. As we allow the Holy Spirit to do His deep work in each of our lives, we will experience every blessing that comes along with embracing the fear of the Lord.
