ELIJAH LEAVENS

A couple weeks ago I put a post on my personal page about giving and receiving. I wanted to take a little more time today just to dive into kingdom finances. One of my favorite things about attending Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry is the level of vulnerability, risk taking, generosity, and different avenues of learning. In this environment I find myself not only learning stewardship from my teachers but also my peers. This environment is one of the most giving and generous environments I have ever seen but it’s not just a financial thing but is as well of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Even so with the level of giving in this environment I believe there is still a valuable lesson that needs to be learned before you can truly step into giving with a kingdom heart. What is that might you say? I believe it’s vitally important to be a good receiver! Everyone knows it nice to give and bless people. You don’t even need to be a believer to have this as a thought process. ...

Good morning amazing men and women. I hope everyone had an amazing weekend and is pumped up for the week ahead. This week we’re going to be diving a little deep so stay with me absorb and get pumped up for the life that’s ahead of you. Over the past couple months we have all been seeing a lot of well known people in the spotlight that have passed. Not to long ago one of the most well know evangelist of this time Billy Graham, multiple celebrity actors, and this week a well know producer Avicii has passed. Not to mention all the other tragedies with schools and a number of other ways that people leave this earth. It truly is sad and my heart goes out to families and loved ones as losing anyone you're close to can be devastating. Hear my heart now as I’m not trying to make light of these passings but am wanting to pain a picture and feel the longing to express that life is short! Sure we say it all the time but we need to fully grasp this. No matter what your background, ethnic...

What an incredible week we had in Santa Cruz, California! I just wanted to take some time this week and release the amazing testimony’s we had that surfaced during our missions trip last week. My team and I left Thursday April 5th. We were all beyond excited and expectant for what the lord was going to do. We left caravan style with 3 vans packed full of food, water, bags, and 15 1/2 fired up revivalists from bssm! The half was my team leaders full of joy baby Elijah. Just being back on the road was enough to charge me and get me so ready for all the travels ahead with Jesus. When we got into Santa Cruz we went straight to the hotel to unpack and get ready for a night of worship. Thursday  night we had an amazing opportunity to lead worship at a small house church at the tannery. That place is incredibly all it’s own. Church that night was off the hook I was able to play the jambe with my worship team and we just invited the lord to flow through. That night we ate, we dance...

Beloved, Its imperative that we as a family do not hide or stay bound to chains, sin, and addictions. We must not give into the lies of the enemy or stay trapped in old thoughts and memories. There is freedom coming to you and for you and I believe this is a message that must be shared to the whole generation (world). To many times we give in to thinking that our past is a disqualification from what the lord has shown us we are to do. We can not look at sin through the lens of it is to big or that happened to recently. We can not be afraid of our sins and disregard what we have done or what has happened. One of the biggest lies of the enemy is - because you did this sin you will not amount to your calling. Today I am here to break that off in the name of Jesus! No matter what it is or how soon or far your sin has happened, though repentance there is gold to be planted! Sin has been beaten and death has been conquered through the death and resurrection of our savior Jesus Christ. ...

I pray everyone had an amazing resurrection weekend with the lord and family. What an amazing time to just get together and talk over what our father has done for us by sacrificing his only son Jesus Christ to die as us and and raise from the dead resurrected to ascend into heaven as us and for us, thank you Jesus! This week I just wanted to take and share a small that I have released through my revival group and school as I believe it is a word that all of us need to hear. This past Thursday in the morning when I was in my quiet time with the lord I was really praying over some things that have been on my heart and the lord showed me some amazing things. The past couple weeks i've been so exited for what’s next to come after school and life in general. Although part of me wants school to go on forever part of me is like I’m totally ready for first year to be over. In that quiet time with him he shown me how often we are always looking to the next season. When it’s col...
