#JesusIsMyRescue
“Who can rescue me from this body that's subject to death? Thanks be to God. Thanks be to God. Thanks be to God. I'm delivered through Jesus Christ my Lord. Who can get me out of my mess? Who can break Scrincen's grip? Jesus. Who can silence my condemnation? Jesus. Who can get begin my past. Jesus, who give me power for my presence. Jesus, who can put his spirit inside of me. Jesus, who can change the way I talk. Jesus, who could change the way I walk. Jesus, who could change the way I think. Jesus, who could give me power to say no to the flesh. Jesus, yes he can. Somebody say yes he can. Yes he can. King Jesus, Yes, he can.”

#ResurrectionGraceTransforms
“But Christ doesn't want us to stay at cross grace. He wants us to come to resurrection grace. That's what Jesus does in me. Cross grace is what he did for me. Resurrection grace is what he does in me. Romans eight two says, resurrection grace says, the law of the spirit who gives life has set you free. That's resurrection grace. In Romans eight four, we begin to live according to the spirit. So the gospel doesn't merely tell the struggling Christian, Jesus forgives you when you fall. That's true. But the Bible wants us to go further. The Saint Jesus who died to remove condemnation also rose to provide the power for transformation.”

#PrayForResurrectionChange
“Today, today, today, I want you to close your eyes right now and think about that one struggle you have, and you're not making it public to anybody. You're talking to God. And tell God in prayer, Lord, thank you for cross grace, but I wanna move to resurrection grace. Your life is in me through the Holy Spirit. So right now, at this moment, make me sick of what I'm doing and give me a new heart and a new mind.”

#CrossAndResurrectionGrace
“The blood of Jesus handles my guilt. The Holy Spirit supplies my power. Cross grace tells me I'm accepted. Resurrection grace tells me I'm empowered. At the cross, my debt was paid. At the resurrection, new life was released. The blood says you and I are forgiven. The spirit says you can walk free. The blood cleanses my record. The spirit changes my walk. The blood deals with what I've done. The spirit empowers who I'm becoming. The blood breaks the condemnation. The spirit breaks the domination. Sin doesn't have to condemn me, and sin does not have to control me because of our cross grace, and I've got resurrection grace.”
30s
#CrossDiedResurrectionLives
“Cross grace says, died for me. Resurrection grace says, Jesus lives in me. Let me say that one more time. Cross grace says, Jesus died for me. Resurrection grace says, Jesus lives in me. And Romans eight brings both of them together. No condemnation in Christ Jesus and a new way of living in the Holy Ghost. So I've got to answer the question that I started off with.”
55s
#NotCondemnedInChrist
“So even when I'm going through this Romans seven experience, sin confess, sin again, repeat, promise not to do it. The Bible says, I am not condemned Because Jesus, somebody say Jesus, took my condemnation. Jesus carried my guilt. Jesus bore my judgment. Jesus paid my debt. Jesus shed his blood for my sins. Jesus died the death that I should have died. And then Jesus got up with power that confirms what he did on Calvary. Church, you and I may have struggles, but you're not condemned.”
50s
#StandingOnJesusObedience
“Your sins are forgiven. You are justified with God. That means you are in the right standing, in the right relationship with God. My standing with the father, get this now, rests on the Jesus' perfect obedience. I need to say that for those individuals who are these final generation perfectionists. You're standing with God, repeat after me, my standing with God, rest on Jesus' Perfect obedience. Not your imperfect performance. I don't earn God's acceptance through my successful Christian living.”

The next thing you know, you tell they're gonna talk to somebody else. Did you know what so and so told me? And they You need to tell the Lord like it is. Lord, I love what I'm doing. I I I I don't wanna quit. But please, give me a new heart to make me sick of what I'm doing.”

#FaithBeforeEvidence
“But one of the things about being pregnant, I noticed, is that you don't start showing right away. Right? There's a few months before anyone can see any physical manifestation of something that you know. So even though my husband and I had a knowledge that we were pregnant, no one else knew unless we told them. And the funny thing about that is it got to the point where sometimes I would even doubt. Am I really pregnant? Like, I can't see anything. Nothing's happening. And I said, God, I know what the ultrasound said. I know what the doctor said, but it doesn't feel like anything's happening. How many of you have ever had this vision, this dream, and you know God gave it to you, but you're just not feeling like you're seeing any evidence that it has life to it. Right?”

#ResultOverMethod
“I prayed over the baby. I said, please turn, please turn. And I was like, Lord, I don't want to have this surgery. I don't want Now, I'm realizing C sections are pretty popular these days. People are just opting for them. But back in the day, was like, No, I don't want this surgery. I don't want this surgery. And finally, the Lord just gave me a piece, and he said to me, Tasha, do you realize that the doctor said that you can have the baby? You're just not going to have it in the way that you thought. Why are you getting caught up in the method and not the result?”
