Jerry Flowers Podcast

We must renounce every lie, every stronghold, and every curse that has passed through our family line. Declare today that every chain is broken, every stronghold is dismantled, and every curse is canceled by the blood of Jesus!

Unhealthy singles breed unhealthy marriages and unhealthy marriages create unhealthy environments for the children.

Have you ever wondered why all of your relationships keep sinking? Why you keep drowning in pain and people-pleasing? It's important that we understand that you cannot make what was never God's will into being His will.

God doesn't give us "grace" to fulfill the desires of our hearts, but He does provide "grace" to fulfill the desires of His heart. I have grace to endure!

No longer will I sacrifice myself at the alter of your expectations! Rehab is in session for all recovering people-pleasers and those who wrestle with the fear of rejection.

Jesus leaving the 99 for 1 sounds crazy, until you're that 1. Yes, something has to die, but it's not you. The enemy wants you to believe the only way out is to take your life, but that's a lie! We have hope for you in this message.

Have you ever made the mistake of thinking something, somewhere or someone was safe just to find out they sabotaged your focus, peace and direction? It's critical we identify the differences in safe spaces and sabotages.

Can you discern when God has called you to be number two? Until we realize that our role is for God's glory and not our own, we'll never be able to find unspeakable joy in the reality that we must decrease, so that God increases.

We have to get to a place to where we stop listening to people's advice who don't have to deal with the outcome if we follow it. We must be cautious about who has access to your ear!

Can you identify when a failure isn't a part of the process, but it's a part of protection? This doesn't mean we need to work harder; nor is it adversity, it's clarity! This is God being clear about what is and isn't in His will for your life.

If you don't disciple your imagination, it will begin to filter everything through fear, threats and worst-case scenarios. This is no way for a Christ follower to live and thrive. We must get our anxiety under control so that it stops dictating our lives!

So many of us are engaged in historically inherited wars and we don't even know it! Generational cycles gain momentum by stories being left untold and scars that were covered by statements such as, "what goes on in this house stays in this house."

When we're emotionally exhausted, we tend to revert back to the version of ourselves from before Jesus called us. It's time we develop a pain plan, because your pain process sets protocols for those who are coming behind you.

In order to succeed in life, we must be able to identify which type of valley we are in. The anointing is forged in the valley!

Could it be possible that our lack of properly placing people is the role that we're playing in our own suffering?

There's some pain we don't have to experience if we would just take the wisdom!

Have you ever lost something before, only to realize it's right there in your face? Inattentional blindness is whenever you become so focused on one thing, that you miss the details right in front of you. This is one of the cancers responsible for relational breakdown.

The fastest way to waste your life is to live thinking you have more life left. You get one life and to waste time is to waste life!

It's critical that we remain healed, because brokenness blurs your vision and causes you to not be able to discern the true nature of people. How many times have we seen people in the improper light due to the fact that we got healed, but never stayed healed?

Some of us are fueled by feuds - we love to fight! It's possible that our harvest is being strangled by our obsession to fight. Sometimes fighting is necessary, but do we have the maturity to know when, where, how or even what to fight? Do we have the discernment to know that we shouldn't be fighting for free?

In life, many of us have taught ourselves to move on by sweeping our hardships under the rug. But if you keep sweeping things under the rug, it will eventually trip you up!

Before you overthink. Before you let anxiety at the mic in your soul. Before you allow what you see to talk you out of what you know, remember the times when God showed himself as the same God who delivered you back then!

It's your responsibility to do the work! Spiritual leaders can offer guidance; The Holy Spirit can comfort, convict and counsel us; but having consistency is up to you!

Biblical illiteracy is the artery of deception and when the heart is not filled with wisdom, deception is enthroned. It reigns over your choices!

We need discerning hearts and wisdom because when you've been shaped by ignorance, you can't trust your discernment because your perspective has been constructed by misinformation and the lack of right information. Both willful and involuntary wisdom lead to pain and that's too expensive!

The ultimate cheat code is to be in the presence of The Father!

Why should we seek to resolve conflict? It's our duty in Christ and an opportunity to look as much as we can like our Father.

Deliverance deals with the demons, wisdom deals with the damage. Enough with us allowing our hearts to be a practice field while they find themselves!

This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone seeking to deepen their faith and understand the profound influence of spiritual leadership. Tune in for a conversation that promises to enrich your spiritual experience and offer valuable insights into the life of a pastor.

Once we grow with God, so should our relational obedience with Him, which makes it easier for us to give God our "yes" in all things.

Idolatry is a matter of the human heart; it is the human heart seeking something outside of its Creator to sustain it. Money does not change a person, but rather exposes the human heart.

The fight is fixed and the only way we lose is if we don't fight, so let the arrows fly!

Joy is not a destination you arrive at but it's a standard you must choose to believe. God is speaking to us about having joy in Him and in Him alone.

We have to stop worshipping at the altar of what other people think. If we don't unlearn that, what they say about us will be what we say about ourselves.

Whoever you pick and choose to do life with is a choice on the materials you will use to build your house.

Can you identify when your heart is catching a cold? With a natural cold you can lose your taste, but with a spiritual cold you can lose sensitivity to the things of God and His convictions! Believe it or not, it’s possible for us to not even know how contagious we are, which by default has us spreading strongholds.

Kingdom men don't just happen. They're first born again and then built. We know this to be true because when we look at David's life, he was anointed to be king over Israel in 1 Samuel 16, but he didn't become king until 2 Samuel 5 because he was being built.

Your ability to discern God’s will is married to the renewal, the health and the healing of your mind!

Once Satan gains access to your ear, he can then influence your mind, the gateway to your soul. What are you listening to on a regular basis?

Some people like the unhealed version of you better… what if the only thing y’all have in common is similar dopamine hits?

The pain of guilt may not be the result of what others have done, but rather what we have done leaving an imprint on our souls. We will only exemplify our freedom in Christ to the degree by which we are free in our souls.

If you have to lose yourself in order to secure that relationship, you may need change directions. Because you can't self-abandon your way into a healthy relationship.

A discernment deficiency will have you loyal to a counterfeit, but a discerning heart gives you the ability to see beyond presentation!

The survival tactics that you've learned in your "now," won't serve you to thrive when God gives you your "next."

Knowledge is applied information but wisdom is the ability to identify misinformation. You don't have to learn everything through experience, some things you can learn through wisdom.

In life, sometimes you must make a conscious decision to modify the level of access someone has to you. It doesn't mean that you no longer love them, but for the sake of your health, happiness or purpose, you must reposition them.

Anything outside of God that we worship and find identity in is an idol. God doesn’t do threesomes, He won’t be intimate with us and our idols at the same time!

We're so quick to say our cut off game is strong, but why isn't it that strong when it comes to cutting off that rudeness or any sin that offends God? It's a contradiction and this message is designed to help us cut off the branches in our life that are unfruitful.

Often times we sabotage the good things that God wants to provide for our lives due to the feeling of unworthiness. We must unlearn the idea that we do not deserve the blessings of God as we learn how to embrace happiness.

In Matthew 23, Jesus was criticizing the Pharisees when He said, "everything they do is done for people to see." They love attention, they love views and they love going viral. That's the infection - viral infection! And the danger is when we are a people who love attention, we'll mismanage pastures.

What God wants you to go through and what you choose to go through are not the same! Being offended is a choice, not a requirement.

Being hard on yourself and calling it perfectionism is really self manipulation, because the fruit of that behavior is anxiety, overthinking, stress, burnout, and depression. Those aren't fruits of the Spirit and the gift God has given you never requires your peace of mind!

While your hands aren't stronger than Pharaoh's, God's are. God is waiting for you to put it down, so He can pick it up.

Avoidance is a survival skill that is learned in an unsafe environment. When brought into a safe environment, the new space then starts to look like the one God brought us out of. There are five ways to change your behavior, but in order to do that, we must first address the fact that we are avoiding something.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and evidence is for the purpose of being persuaded. This is why so many people are disenchanted with Christianity because we claim to have this evidence, but with the way we treat people, it's not evident. Our love for God and His people should be evident, not mysterious.

There are a lot of things we can get wrong, but the two most important things we should get right are God's will for our lives and our eternal placement!

Most of us when we hear the word "naked," we think of the human body, whether male or female, being uncovered, stripped, indecent exposure; void of the appropriate covering. This seems to be an adequate estimation; however, there is a spiritual correlation that must be considered when we ask the question: "Why are you naked?"

An apology isn’t enough. What you deserve is changed behavior! Let's unpack the many questions we have regarding broken trust and how it can be recovered.

God is raising up a generation of kingdom men who will take their rightful position, in Jesus name! Featuring Jerry Flowers, Issac Curry, Will Jackson, Ezekiel Azonwu and Gabriel McKnight.

We have placed a period where God wants to place His comma. He is The Author and Finisher of our faith, but is it possible that you've given the pen to something or someone else in your life? It's time to fire whoever owns the pen!

Your process of dealing with conflict in your relationships could be why you haven't experienced the needed healing in your life. It's critical that we know the difference between an apology and accountability. An apology must be connected to curiosity and changed behavior.

It's the nature of a fire to go out and if the enemy can't take you out, he will wear you out! So how do we prevent spiritual burnout?

It's going to be hard to make destiny decisions when you haven't made a peace treaty with your past!

Nobody welcomes storms, and yet, whether we welcome them or not, they show up. Since we can be assured that storms will come, wouldn’t it be wise for us to prepare?

It’s possible that our mind is so crowded with worry, so crowded with fear, and so crowded with lies, that a word from God has to stand in the long line of our overthinking.

Every follower of Jesus needs community, but it must be one that's healthy and on fire for the things of God! Authentic Christian fellowship comes with heat, which is necessary in order to melt the frostbite of our struggles.

Many of us sabotage and walk away from potentially thriving relationships simply because we've never seen what it looks like up close to choose love without forcing love. While there are others who walk away from relationships because that's how we've been taught to cope with conflict.

At the end of the day, we have this choice when it comes to overcoming the lies of insecurity: choose what you believe, affirm what you believe and unlearn what you have believed.

Let us be people that experience what biblical love truly looks like, so that once we enter into relationships we do not repeat what should've been repaired.

Everything changes when Godly men are in position!

Before the start of Jesus' earthly ministry, He was first affirmed by The Father. We must be people who meditate on the thoughts of God, rather than the opinions of man.

You can't keep the lungs of your walk with Jesus cancer-free if you don't have spiritual insight on how to identify secondhand smoke.

Passion without vulnerability, empathy, commitment and honor is simply infatuation. The words, "I love you," will not be enough to sustain a relationship or marriage. Love is an action that must be lived out, not just spoken.

The role of The Holy Spirit was never to spark your faith. He was purposed to engulf your faith because proximity determines temperature. Let it burn!

The quality of your heart and the health of your soul affects too many people for you to ignore when the limp remains.

Perhaps God is not holding you back. What if this isn't punishment or the devil but rather a season where God is trying to give your faith some flames?

Last year was the last year that I didn't steward the currency of my time well. You know how much money is in your bank account, but you don't know how much time is left on your clock. The greatest contributor to our spiritual laziness is we think we have more time!

For some, it takes a certain dispensation of time for us to truly see what needs to end in our lives. Time will tell!

It isn't time that's setting you back, but rather when we fail to put our trust in God’s timing. Time isn't our biggest hinderance when it comes to time-management, It's our inability to discern time wasters!

Sometimes pain and purpose are married, which means you can't birth anything without pain. What if God is trying to see if He can trust you with that disappointment?

The enemy waits for the right time to get us to fall for his traps and temptation but God always sends warnings when we're being sneaky and on our way to a trap. Notice the timing!

The enemy wants to get us at the wrong tables, feeding on entrees from the wrong place with the ultimate goal being for us to waste our time. It's critical that we know that Jesus came to overturn every table that would cause for us to miss our appointment!

One of the first ordinances of the Kingdom for earth revolved around timing. "Let there be light... greater lights by day and lesser lights by night." God is saying there is a time for the sun to shine and there's a time for the moon to shine. If this is true then one of the warfare strategies of the enemy is to get us to waste time.

It is unfortunate that in many religious gatherings, many have come to expect a "Yes" from God, but what do you do when God says, "no?" God wants us to know His voice so that we conform to His character, not the culture.

Satan comes only to steal, kill and destroy, but Jesus came so that we would have life and have it more abundantly! How can we live the abundant life if we keep engaging in the self sabotaging behavior Jesus died to save us from?

It's going to be hard to walk in your calling, if you can't hear the voice of The One Who is calling you.

The enemy operates with a demonic math equation. He wants to add voices ➕ to subtract clarity ➖, so he can multiply confusion ✖️, causing division between your will and The Holy Spirit ➗, which equals = uncertainty!

It's dangerous when you're trying to give birth when the wrong voice is in your ear. Even Jesus, The King Of Glory, was intentional with who was around Him during moments of vulnerability.

One of the worst types of illnesses that you can receive is a projection infection, which causes for you to believe a narrative that was authored by someone else's wounds.

Don't stay stuck — get up, pick up your pallet and walk! We have to be willing to go through this process in order to no longer be rooted in our sin.

Are you truly healed, or are you simply isolated from all of your past triggers? Often times, we heal just enough to be able to identify our trauma, but not to the degree to be rid of the pain the trauma has caused in our lives.

The greatest threat to your life and relationships is unwanted people in private places where they don't belong. You can't control the voices that try to influence you externally, but you can for those you invite into in your bedroom.

It's possible for you to lose yourself when the relationship or a season ends. DON'T LOSE YOU!

We are the bride of Christ. One of the last postures Jesus had before His crucifixion was on His knees washing His bride’s feet. He was in a proposal position.

Often times we stay subscribed to things out of comfort, convenience, familiarity or even fear. If we truly desire growth, we must first understand that new growth cannot happen unless you're willing to cut what is no longer beneficial to you.

If we don't understand the significance of grace, we'll fail to grasp the authority we have to war in the spirit, and most importantly that we are heirs of the Father.

When you've grown up in a combat zone, warfare becomes familiar to such a degree that peace causes skepticism. In the same way, normalized dysfunction has conditioned us to the point where we have confused what happiness truly is. It isn't until our eyes have been opened that we're able to see hazardous roads have become our normal.

This message addresses the need for us to be able to identify bad theology and false teaching. Eloquent speech and charisma mixed with heresy has deceived many, so in order to avoid deception we must be students of truth!
